Chapter 230
Blake felt a burning pain on his face. He hadn’t expected to be injured so severely. If the damage was
permanent, his acting career would be over. He'd been aiming for Best Actor this year; now, his face was ruined,
and his dreams were shattered.
Ethan pressed Blake down.“Calm down. Your wounds aren’t healed yet. You're still on IV.”
“Brother, Alice ruined me! This was all planned. If she hadn't setup, | wouldn't be injured!” Blake was in a
frenzy, unable to listen to reason.
Ethan, seeing Blake's injuries, hesitated.”Don’t worry, Four. Noah's a doctor; repairing your face shouldn't be a
problem.”
Blake calmed down slightly, woking around.“Where’s Alice? She hurtlike this; is she afraid to see me?”
Noah approached.“Four, you were the one who attacked Alice. How could she have hurt you?” “Second Brother,
you're biased towards Alice, of course, you'll defend her.” Blake refused to admit he'd started the fight;
confessing would end his career. He was deliberately acting for the police, who approached them.
“Mr. Windham, why did you attack your sister? She’s also injured.”
“We were rehearsing a scene. | was coaching her, but she live-streamed it, sWindhaming me, and then called
the police.” Blake sounded heartbroken, a victim of betrayal.
Chloe added, “Yes. Alice’s acting was terrible, delaying filming yesterday. Four was coaching her today. | never
expected Alice to do this.”
Noah glared at Chloe.“Alice isn’t that kind of person.”
Blake's voice was hoarse.“You can ask the crew about my sister's poor acting and the delays. I'm telling the
truth.”
“Mr. Windham, if you were rehearsing, why was Alice injured?”
“My sister wanted a realistic performance, but | didn’t hit her hard. Her injuries aren't my fault.” Blake feigned
weakness.“l never expected my sister to plot against me. | want to know why.” Ethan was furious.“Why? You
tried to get Alice to drop the charges, and she refused. She plotted against you so you'd be out of her life.”
Chloe tried to smooth things over.“Brother, talk to Alice. SWindhaming Four like that is wrong.

Noah let out a cold laugh, disappointed in Ethan. He'd thought their sibling bond was strong, but Alice’s
departure had revealed the truth.
“Noah, what's that look?”
“Brother, you'll regret this. One day, you'll regret it more than | do.”

Noah left, determined to At the Yates family’s private hospital, Alice rested in bed. News of her live-streamed
assault had spread like wildfire. Blake's agency issued a statement, claiming they were rehearsing a scene. Alice
had intended to record the rehearsal to practice at hbut accidentally started a live stream, creating a
misunderstanding. Public opinion largely sided with Blake. Alice didn’t respond; no matter what she said, Blake's
fans would attack her. She’d wait for the police investigation before releasing a statement.

“Ms. Alice, you're awake. May we speak with you?”
Alice saw the TG PR team again. Her expression was cold. “I've said | won't cooperate.” “Ms. Alice, we're your PR
team now.” The lead woman handed her a card.Tm Alice. Contactanytime.”
Alice was surprised by Jack's speed. He'd poached Blake's PR team.

difficult assignment. Four’s situation is too messy; I'd rather work for you.” Alice was frank.“You shouldn't give
any media interviews. Take a leave from school. By the tyou're discharged, the investigation should be
complete.” “That's my plan,” Alice said, adding Alice's contact information.“l won't underpay you.” Alice was
surprised but didn’t argue. Jack wanted to keep his involvement secret. Alice took a leave from school and texted
Alice, asking her not to worry; she'd check on the team’s training after discharge.
Soon, Noah arrived but was stopped by the PR team. Alice said, “Ms. Alice needs rest. No visitors.
“I'm her brother.”
“We know. She doesn’t want to see anyone from the Windham family.” Alice knew everything about Alice,
including the family’s treatment of her.
Noah looked at the room.“Alice, I'm here to check on you. | know Four was wrong. It's not your fault.” He knew
Blake's nature; as a child, Blake had caused countless problems, leading to numerous parental meetings.
Alice pretended not to hear. She knew the Windham family’s behavior and didn’t want to waste
her time.
Alice, seeing Alice’s lack of response, told Noah, “She heard you, but she doesn’t want to see you. You can leave
now.”
Noah refused.“Alice, Four’s face is probably ruined; he’s capable of anything. I'm not leaving you alone in the
hospital.”

“You're just paid employees. | don’t trust you my sister.”
Jack strode over.“You're the reason Alice's hurt! You only bring her misfortune. Do you have the right to say
you're worried?”
The PR team instantly focused on their boss. Noah's face was etched with bitterness.”l know, but this is different.
Four doesn’t play by the rules.” Blake was connected to the underworld; Noah feared Blake would send someone
to take Alice.
Jack’s eyes were cold.“Trying to take Alice from this hospital? You overestimate your family.” Hearing Jack's
voice, Alice went to the doorway. Her tone was cold.“Leave. Being associated with you only brings me
misfortune!”
Noah grabbed her wrist.“Alice, I'm on your side. I... cough...”

Noah covered his mouth; blood flowed. He wiped it with his sleeve and turned, panicked.“l... I'm leaving.”
Alice’s hand paused, then retracted. Noah collapsed, his face pale.
