Bosh wee speechless at Davids sheard wiggration
How could be exy such things?
Chine was secretly delighted
She planned to ensure Alice failed new year.
Chlos feigned generosity/Davis, that’s not right. Flike Alice’s company, but Alice aced the exam. She wouldn’t repeat # year”
Nosh said coldly,“Good”
Chloe bit her lip and looked down
Davis continued, “Mr. Nosh, if Ms. Alice were here with Ms. Black, she’d be a good influence on Ms. Plack. People would think the Welch family generous?
Noah looked at Davis coldly,
Davis’s voice trailed off “Otherwise, Ms. Alice aced the exam, and Ms. Black got a zero. People will say the Welch family mistreated Ms. Black”
“Mistreated Chloe? Ridiculous! Davis, are you mad?”
Davis wanted to continue, as Noah threatened,“Say that again, and you’re fired”
Noah wouldn’t tolerate this.
He’d only kept Davis because of his long service, overlooking the stationery incident.
Chloe quickly mediated “Davis, stop, I can’t hinder Alice’s future. I’ll work hard.”
Noah’s tone was cold. “Rest in your room.”
Resentful, Chloe returned to her room.
Davis followed. He was concerned.“Ms. Black, don’t hurt yourself! Your classmate was found a few days after committing suicide. That girl’s body was…awful.”
“Stop it!”
Chloe abruptly stopped him, lowering her head. She adjusted her mood and asked Davis to apologize to Noah.
Chloe saw several unread messages.
The mysterious man texted, “I’ve taken care of that girl. I’ll handle anyone who gets in your way.”
Chloe was furious.“I only asked you to silence Cecelia. Why did you kill her?”
The police interrogation had terrified her; she hadn’t intended Cecelia to die.
“That girl was stubborn. Only a dead person keeps secrets.”
Chloe regretted contacting this person. She wasn’t sure if he was her father.
“Want Alice dead? Then you’ll be the only Welch daughter.”
Chloe wavered.
If Alice were gone, no one would compete with her.
Chloe quickly dismissed the thought.

Multiple murders would lead to suspicion. She couldn’t do this again.
She texted back, “I’ve sent the money. Don’t contact me again!”
Chloe didn’t want anything to do with this man.
She didn’t want to have anything to do with Cecelia’s death!
Davis knocked.“Ms. Black, Cecelia’s family is looking for you. I stopped them. If they spoke to Mr. Noah, it wouldn’t be good for you.”
“Thank you, Davis. Make sure they don’t talk to Noah. His attitude toward me has changed.”
Chloe was tense, fearing her secret with that mysterious man would be revealed.
Noah and Luke’s attitudes had changed. She had to win them back.
After Davis left, Chloe went to the ward next door and overheard Noah and Luke’s conversation.
“Noah, Ethan wants to cut ties with Alice. What do we do?”
“He’s just angry. I’ll focus the company on Washington. Alice will be there. It’ll be easier to see her.”
“What about Chloe? She needs to retake the exam.”
“She only needs a driver and a maid. We don’t need to do anything.”
Noah’s attitude towards Chloe was colder.“There’s an AI investment conference in Washington in two weeks. It’s a huge opportunity! We have to get prepared.”
Chloe’s hatred intensified.
She didn’t want to repeat a year. She couldn’t fall behind Alice.
Only Ethan could help.
Alice contacted Shrimp Live and returned Noah’s donation.
She didn’t need their money!
For two weeks, Alice worked on the Al project at Andrew’s company.
The time before investment promotion conference was limited.
Noah called.“Alice, your Harvard University acceptance letter arrived. Come get it.”
“I’ll send a courier.”
She wasn’t going back.
“Alice, I know you’re disappointed, but come back before you leave.”
“There’s no need.”
Suddenly, Alice had an idea.“I’ll come if you do me a favor.”
“Of course, family doesn’t need favors.”
Alice hung up, smirking.
She found Jack.“I need to go back. The acceptance letter was sent there.”
Jack frowned. “They’re using the letter to make you come back?”
“Yes, but I have something else to do there. It’ll avoid future problems.”

Jack, seeing her determination, said, ‘I’ll take you.”
They drove to the Welch family’s mansion.
Seeing her old home, Alice felt a mix of emotions. She hadn’t been back since moving out.
The car stopped outside the mansion.
Jack looked at the house. Need me to come in?”
“No. I’ll call if anything happens.”
Alice knew Jack was here. She was calmer.
Alice reached the door, entered the code, and it was wrong.
A mocking smile touched her lips. She rang the doorbell. Davis appeared.
Alice smirked. When did you change the code?”
Davis’s tone was cold.“Ms. Alice, Mr. Ethan forbade you from entering without permission. The code is now Ms. Black’s birthday!”
