Chapter 128 Sometimes , what you fear most comes true .
Jack was furious at the middle aged mans sudden appearance .
He calmly nodded and left with Alice .
Looking back , the man was gone ! Who was that ? I dont know .
But he called you Mr.
Wilson .
Alice looked at Jack suspiciously .
Jacks heart sank ; how could he explain ? Alice said , Maybe someone Maple Leaf worked with before .
Many companies contacted us after the conference .
She assumed he was there for business .
Jack , not explaining , played along .
The projects promising .
Its amazing ! Imagine it in self driving cars … She realized shed revealed too much ! Jack looked at her .
You know a lot about this industry .
His team had analyzed it ; it had great potential .
Few were optimistic , but Alice had a unique perspective .
They arrived at Alices apartment .
Alice opened her shoe cabinet .
I dont have any shoes for you .
Use mine .
Shed only recently moved in .
Jack looked around ; it was sparsely decorated but functional .
Seeing his mismatched pink slippers , she laughed .
Sorry , but no one will see .
Jack wasnt bothered .
Seeing her getting vegetables , he said , Order from a restaurant .
Dont cook .
Im not trying to impress you ; Im entertaining a friend ! When shed offered to cook at his apartment , hed told her not to try to please anyone .
This was different .
This was her home .
Jack helped her chop vegetables .
Two peoples meal was easy to prepare .
Alice made three dishes and a soup , taking a photo for her social media .
She had several missed calls Luke .
He called again .
She hung up .

Alice , Ill tell the police about Chloe .
Dont worry .
* Even with the broken camera , Ill testify for you .
She put her phone down .
She didnt need Lukes help .
Chloe wouldnt press charges ; what if the footage was restored ? Jack glanced at her phone .
Messages from the Winds ? * Yes .
Brother thinks Im vicious for hurting Chloe ; hell get revenge .
Jacks gaze darkened .
What did he say ? Luke said the cameras are broken ; hell explain to the police .
But I dont care ! The Winds were masters of manipulation .
She wouldnt waver .
Seeing her resolve , Jack knew shed manage alone in Peking .
Luke texted again and called , but she didnt answer .
Hed thought shed answer , hoping to speak .
She didnt .
He felt anxious .
Ethan scoffed .
Is she too scared to answer ? Brother , Alice isnt like that .
We cant rely on Chloes word alone .
The broken cameras didnt 36.5 % Chapter 120 broke the prove Alices guilt .
Why did Ethan believe Chloe and not Alice ? Luke realized Ethans bias .
Luke , youve been brainwashed ! Chloes injured , and you say Alice is innocent ? I suspect Alice cameras ! Ethan had hoped the footage would .
prove everything .
Chloe coughed .
Brother , let it go .
She was relieved the cameras were broken .
Shed planned her defense , but it wasnt needed .
If they pressed further , what if the footage was restored ? She couldnt risk it ! Ethan said , pleased , Youre too kind .
Luke was suspicious .
Chloe , did Alice push you ? Chloe stammered , Yes .
Alice was downstairs ; you were upstairs .
How did she push you ? It didnt make sense .
Chloe said nervously , I Was persuading Alice , but she pulled me : I fell .
But you said she pushed you ? Why hadnt she mentioned pulling ? Her story didnt add up ! Chloe panicked , coughing .
Ethan interrupted .
Luke , why why are you Im trying to find the truth .
interrogating her like a criminal ? They argued and fought .
Its obvious , Ethan dismissed it as a trivial sisterly squabble .
But Alices attitude angered him .
He wanted her to apologize .
Luke felt exhausted .
Brother , its not like that .
You cant just cant just blame blame Alice ! Youre brainwashed ! Shes spoiled ! Luke left , frustrated .
Why didnt Brother believe him ? He realized Chloe was manipulative , not innocent .
Seeing Ethans bias reminded him of his own past behavior .
No wonder Alice left .
Chloe rushed out .
Brother Two , are you angry ? I was trying to get Alice to come home .
Move out .
I wont cut off your finances .
What do you say ? Chloe froze .
Brother Two , I … Lukes gaze was intense .
You wont agree ? You were lying ?
