Alice wouldn''t let Chloe escape so easily. Weren''t you demanding evidence and retribution? The cameras are here. Why are you running? Are you guilty, Chloe?"
Ethan
scoffed. "Guilty?
Chloe
injured and
needs
medical
attention."
"Let''s wait for the footage. It won''t take long, and she won''t die." Alice nced at Chloe; her eyes. darted around nervously.
Chloe feigned unconsciousness in Ethan''s arms. “Brother, I feel terrible. I can''t hold on."
"Chloe, hold on! Once the footage is shown, I''ll make Alice pay!"
Chloe was frantic; the footage couldn''t be reviewed! She would be ruined. She feigned a faint. Chloe,
are you alright?” Ethan stood, holding Chloe. “I''ll take her to the hospital. I''ll make Alice
pay!"
Alice saw through Chloe''s act. "Chloe, you can''t hide forever. The cameras are right here!"
Chloe, trembling in Ethan''s arms, didn''t dare wake up!
Ethan, furious, left with Chloe. Aliceughed. "Thought you were tough? Scared off?""
Jack said quietly, "I can stop them." Without his permission, the police couldn''t ess the area.
“No need,” Alice said, waving her hand. It''s a great opportunity to expose her.” “I want to, but the security cameras are broken.” She''d checked; there was no infrared activity. She wanted to expose Chloe and humiliate Ethan, but Chloe had luck on her side.
The broken cameras didn''t mean she''d let Chloe off; she''d pretended not to know they were broken to taunt Chloe. Chloe''s fear had been amusing.
Jack checked the cameras; they were indeed broken. He hadn''t expected her attentiveness. He looked at the the police officer. “Even without footage, you can still pursue this.”
"How can we without evidence? Seeing Chloe fall and get scared was satisfying enough." Chloe hadn''t hit her; she hadn''t lost.
Jack put his arm around her."Let''s go."
"Why are you in Peking?" she asked. He was in New York!
Jack looked ufortable."Came to see things."
"Right, you have time off. But why here?"
He hesitated.“Gator called.” Otherwise, he wouldn''t have known she was here and been stopped. by his bodyguards. He''d almost been discovered.
"No wonder. I have something important to do." Ethan and Chloe were at the hospital; the Wilson heir was alone. She could capitalize on this.
She peeked outside. Jack whispered, “What are you looking at?”
“Shh!" Alice pulled Jack behind a
behind a vase. He shook his head at the hidden guards.
Alice whispered, ''Don''t you know the Wilson heir is dining there?"
Jack''s eyes held amusement. "So?"
Alice sighed. “Gator didn''t tell you why he called you? It''s a golden opportunity." Chapter 127
"What opportunity?
To get Wilson Corp''s investment! I can''t let the Winds get it!"
Jack smiled "Don''t worry, Wilson Corp will invest."
smiled."Don''t
"How can you be sure? Did you already meet the heir?”
Jack coughed slightly. "Yes."
"How did it go?"
"Fine."
"But the Wilson heir is hard to please; he''s very picky! You negotiated so quickly?"
Jack''s brow furrowed. Who said he''s hard to deal with?"
"Everyone. I saw him.”
Jack''s heart pounded;
he studied her
expression."Did
you SCC his face?"
“No, his guards blocked him. I only saw his profile from a distance."
"So you didn''t see his face."
Alice shook her head, noticing his clothes. "Your suit is simr in color to his." Jack remained calm.“Suits are easy to match."
"Yours looks better."
He smiled. “Is that apliment? You haven''t even met him."
"Nothing to see. Wealthy heirs probably haveplicated private lives; maybe even illegitimate children.”
He flicked her forehead. "You know him well? You know about his private life!”
I''m guessing. Wealthy people tend to be....yful.” Alice, from a wealthy family, had seen that lifestyle.
Jack didn''t know how to exin.
Alice looked around.“It''s quiet; no one''s here.”
Jack calmly said, "Are you hungry?"
"Yes, let''s go. Wilson Corp probably cleared the floor. Let''s not cause trouble."
Jack looked at her."How''s the new apartment?"
"Good. Let''s have dinner there. I''ll show you."
"Okay.” He didn''t want to risk being seen by anyone. He didn''t want Alice to know who he was yer.
As they reached the restaurant, a middle-aged man approached. "Mr. Wilson, long time no see!" Alice looked at him, surprised. Mr. Wilson?
