Alice looked at the butler, feeling that it was absurd.


    She knew rich families were alwaysplicated.


    Alice got off the bed, and the butler brought a wheelchair.


    "Thanks, but I don''t need it."


    Mems


    Alice went with the butler to the elevator and went up to the next floor, where bodyguards were waiting.


    Outside, it was dark; she wasn''t thinking about anything.


    Alice got to the intensive care unit and saw Jada in bed, with gray hair.


    She put on the sterile gown and walked in.


    Jada opened her eyes and reached out to her.


    Alice hesitated, then moved closer as Jada took her hand.


    She noticed Jada wanted to say something, so she leaned down."Mrs. Wilson, do you want to tell me something?"


    "You''re a beautiful girl."


    aid softly, "Thank


    Alice feltplimented and you."


    "I have a gift for you."


    Jada nced at the butler by the door.


    The butler quickly gave Alice a document showing properties, stocks, cash, and Wilson Group shares.


    Alice was shocked by the huge wealth, but she guessed Jada''s n.


    She knew why Jada wanted to see her alone at night.


    She turned to Jada and whispered, "You want me to leave Jack, right? Actually, you didn''t have to give me all this. You could have just asked."


    “Alice, I know you are a kind and understanding child. However, I don''t have much time left can''t..."


    Jada began to cough.


    Alice moved closer and patted Jada''s chest. “Take it easy, Mrs. Wilson, I''m listening."


    "You''re a good girl, but you and Jack aren''t right for each other."


    Jada''s eyes got red. She wished Alice wasn''t the girl from the car ident years ago.


    Her grandson had been so outstanding and hardworking; he deserved to marry a girl he truly loved.


    Alice held Jada''s hand."But I love him.”


    At this moment, Alice didn''t want to lie to Jada.


    Jada''s voice was faint."I''m dying soon. I have onest wish. You leave him and cut off all ties with him. Then, all my wealth can be yours."

    Mrs. Wilson, I can''t do that.”

    Alice gazed at Jada. "If you want me to break up with Jack, you need to get better. You know how stubborn Jack is. He only listens to you, so you must recover."


    Hearing this, Jada''s eyes immediately brimmed with tears, and she broke into sobs, "No... Fate, you really yed a huge trick on me."


    Why did her grandson have to endure such pain?


    Why?


    Jada abruptly became restless, causing the nearby medical devices to start beeping frantically. The butler dashed out of the room, shouting, "Doctor! Doctor!"


    Alice grasped Jada''s hand. “You need to recover, or I won''t leave Jack. I''ll stay with him no matter


    what."


    She knew how much Jack cared for Jada.


    If Jack lost his grandmother, he would be absolutely devastated.


    She didn''t want Jack to go through that, so she hoped Jada could hang on for a few more years.

    Suddenly, the doctor and nurses hurried in, and Alice was led out of the ICU. She stood outside, seeing Jada surrounded by medical staff doing emergency work, feeling upset. The butler approached angrily.“Ms. Welch, didn''t you know that Mrs. Wilson''s condition was already very serious? Why did you say things to upset her?" Alice bit her lip."No. I was trying to...


    "I don''t care what you intended. Let me be clear. You''re in serious trouble now. If Mrs. Wilson''s condition worsens, you''ll be held ountable for it!"


    The butler spoke gravely. Afterward, he moved away to call someone.


    Alice sat on a bench nearby. She paused before dialing Jack, but got no response Outside, it waste and dark. She felt a sinking feeling.


    Alice pulled out her phone to text Jack. She hesitated, unsure what to write. Eventually the


    sent, “I''m sorry. I might have caused a problem. Your grandmother is in emergency treatment. Pleasee to the hospital fast."


    After sending the message, she began a lengthy wait.


    Alice remained outside and eventually dozed off in the bench.


    When Jack arrived, he found Alice asleep on the bench. He covered her with his coat. He kneeled down and


    softly touched her head.


    The butler rushed over then.


    Jack looked at the butler and signaled for quiet. He stood and moved aside, whispering, “How''s my grandmother?"

The butler looked at the sleeping Alice and murmured, "Mrs. Wilson is stable now. She was fine today, but after seeing Ms. Welch, she got very upset and nearly had a serious crisis." Jack gazed at Jada in the ICU


    He furrowed his brows."Weren''t we supposed to let her meet Alice tomorrow?" "Mrs. Wilson was doing well when she woke up tonight, so she asked to see Ms. Welch privately."


    "What did my grandmother do or say?"


    Jack stared at the butler, his gaze firm.


    The butler finally relented under the scrutiny and recounted everything, handing over the documents to Jack, Jack skimmed the assets listed in the documents. Nearly all of Jada''s personal assets were ounted for.


    He sighed. Was his grandmother trying topensate for his mistake with this money? The butler went on, "Mr. Wilson, I just feel this girl isn''t suitable for you."


    "It''s not your concern."


    Jack threw the papers back, voice t.“Be careful what you say.”


    The butler quickly bowed his head and shut up. He just thought Alice wasn''t as detailed and caring as Max. Jack went to the bench, gently picked up Alice, and took her downstairs to her ward. Jack saw the cut on her leg and turned down the AC to keep her leg under the nket, so she wouldn''t get sick.
