Chapter 135 Menu Alice heard the commotion outside , but her vision was blurry .
Jacks jacket shielded her from the scene , offering a sense of safety .
He looked down at the bodyguards on the floor , his lips pressed into a thin line .
Since you wont talk , you wont be talking ever again .
The bodyguards faces were ashen .
They hadnt expected the girl to be saved by the King of the Washington social circle ! Wasnt she an orphan ? Jack carried Alice out in the private elevator .
She was nestled against him , covered by his jacket , unable to see clearly .
Her mind was a jumble .
Her fingers dug into his collar , knuckles white .
Max raced up the stairs , seeing Jack entering the elevator , a girl in his arms .
Though mostly covered , it was clearly a woman .
She hid , having waited anxiously for the bodyguards .
Jack ! What was going on ? Did he have another woman ? And where was that little bitch , Alice ? Bodyguards blocked her path .
Do you know who I am ? You dare stop me ?! She had to know what was going on , report it to her sister , before that little hussy took advantage of the situation .
They didnt budge .
Max stamped her foot , furious .
Chloe arrived .
Ms.
Garcia , whats wrong ? Theyre stopping me ! My sister is engaged to the King ! If he finds out , theyre done for ! Chloes eyes lit up at at the mention of the King .
The most powerful family in Washington .
If only she had a chance ….
Max grumbled , He hates interruptions .
He clears everyone out wherever he goes .
I wonder where that little bitch Alice is hiding .
Shes probably hiding somewhere , waiting for the King to leave .
This time , Alice will be disgraced .
Shell never mess with me again .
Chloe felt a surge of glee .
Once she got the videos of Alice , she would have total control .
Alice would never escape her clutches , never compete with her again .
In the room at the end of the hall , Luke wiped his hands .
Youre awfully brave .
He hadnt tolerated anyone hurting the girl he cared for .
Mr.
Yates , were from the Garcia family .
We were following Ms.

Garcias orders .
The Garcia family ? Theyre nothing ! Luke had heard of Maxs antics .
She and her cronies often got away with their bullying , thanks to family connections .
This time , theyd picked the wrong fight .
He called Jack .
Its Maxs bodyguards .
They had a conflict with Little Lemon and drugged her .
I understand .
Take care of the bodyguards .
Jack hung up , looking at Alice in the hotel room .
Alice was clutching the sheets , sweat beading on her forehead .
Jacks gaze fell on the family .
doctor .
Whats wrong with her ? Cant you see shes suffering ? s gaze Mr.
Wilson , she was given a new club drug .
Ive given her an antidote , but I cant guarantee the effects .
The drug acts fast , and its been some time .
Jacks jaw tightened .
Are there any side effects ? 38.5 Chapter 135 None once the effects wear off .
But someone should watch her .
Get out .
Dont tell anyone you were here .
Jack approached Alice , touching her forehead .
It was burning .
Want some water ? Alice nuzzled his hand .
Youre so cool .
His gaze darkened .
He fetched iced water , but saw Alices bare arm ; her dress lay on the floor .
His eyes hardened .
Drink some water .
She was too weak .
He held her , the blanket slipping down .
He hastily pulled it up .
Dont move ! He held her close , letting her sip the water .
Cough … She choked , pulling the blanket .
Its so hot .
Jack pressed down on her hand .
His voice was husky .
Dont move , youll expose yourself ! But Im hot .
Feel .
She placed his hand on her chest , her eyes dark and bright .
Jack froze , beads of sweat forming on his brow .
His throat bobbed .
Her skin was burning hot .
, Her heart beat rapidly .
He looked down at her , his voice rough .
Alice , do you know what youre doing ? Their faces were close .
His gaze was intense , a familiar heat rising within him .
She wrapped her arms around his neck , kissing him.
It was clumsy , almost like she was gnawing on him .
He cupped her chin , his eyes dark and dangerous .
Alice , be clear headed .
Know who I am ! I know who you are ! She cupped his face .
If I had to choose , Id choose you .
A string snapped inside him .
Reason , it seemed , was crumbling .
