Chapter 147
My dearest daughter, what is it?”
Chloe explained her request
I need you to destroy a surveillance video. Steal it from the police station.”
“My dearest daughter, did you leave a trace? I can help, but you blacklisted me last time, and that hurt.”
Enough. Help me, and you won’t be blacklisted again.”
Chloe was desperate. This mysterious man, who claimed to be her father, was her only hope.
Whether he was her father or not, she’d use him.
No problem. I will help you.
Chloe hung up, deleting the call log.
She checked on Noah and then called Ethan. Her voice choked with tears.“Ethan, something terrible happened!”
“What is it? Don’t cry, Calm down.”
“Noah came to see Alice, and they argued. Noah fainted. What should I do?”
She cried dramatically.
Ethan said, “Call 911 and give me the address.”
Chloe wiped her tears. Her acting was superb..
She looked at Noah with a mocking smile.
She thought, “The video will be destroyed,
Then, no one would believe Noah.
Ethan hated Alice and would believe me.
I won’t give up.”
Meanwhile, Alice and Jack went to the police station.
Alice was in a good mood.“New car? It’s different from the last one.”
Jack replied, “A friend’s car.”
Alice nodded and said, “What have you been doing in Washington? Pursuing girls?”
Jack gripped the steering wheel and said, “No.”
Alice asked, “Why not?”
Alice was secretly pleased when hearing Jack’s reply.
Her mood was complex.
Jack coughed.“Need a reason?”
Alice said, “Because what happened at the bar? I’m sorry. I know you saved me. Nothing happened between us. I won’t ask you to take responsibility.”
She lowered her head.“Don’t let me disrupt your life.”

They’d been intimate, stopping short of sex.
She’d even touched his abs.
Jack looked thin but was surprisingly muscular.
At a red light, Jack looked at Alice. Her features were delicate.
His heart softened when he looked at Alice.
He smiled slightly and said, “It’s my decision. Nothing to do with you.”
Alice didn’t understand.
Suddenly, a van swerved towards them.
Time seemed to slow.
Alice screamed, “Jack, watch out!”
Jack swerved, shielding Alice.
*Bang!*
Alice felt a deafening roar, almost thrown from her seat.
The seatbelt held her fast.
She felt dizzy, and nauseous, her ears ringing.
She lost consciousness.
Alice felt that someone was searching for something from her.
She awoke but only saw a blur of red.
Someone took the laptop from beside her.
She tried to stop them but was too weak.
She saw Jack slumped over the steering wheel, blood streaming from his head.
“Jack, wake up!”
She fainted. Alice thought, “I put Jack in danger.”
The accident caused a stir in the Wilson family.
“The Heir of the Wilson Family Possibly Cheating, Involved in Car Accident with New Girlfriend!”
This hit the headlines but was quickly deleted.
Alice awoke to the smell of antiseptic.
She knew that she was in the hospital.
Luke sighed with relief.“Alice, you’re awake! Anything hurt?”
“Jack? How is he?”
Alice remembered Jack was more seriously injured.
“He’s fine. Don’t move. You’re still on IV.”
“I need to see him!”
Alice couldn’t be assured without seeing Jack safe.
“Not now.”

“Why? Is he seriously injured, and you’re hiding it?”
Alice became anxious.
Andrew held Alice down and explained, “He’s fine, but his family is here. It’s not a good time. The accident might lead to misunderstandings.”
The Wilson family had almost turned the hospital upside down searching for the culprit.
Luckily, Andrew came first.
He had separated Alice and Jack to prevent trouble for Alice.
Alice felt guilty. “I’m responsible for his injury!”
“It was an accident! But Jack’s family set up a blind date for him. This accident will cause misunderstandings. You shouldn’t meet his family now!”
It was not a proper time for Alice to meet Jack’s family.
Alice gave up on seeing Jack.
“I’ll take you to see him later after his family leaves.”
“Okay.”
Since Andrew explained it, Alice could wait.
Alice remembered something.“It wasn’t an accident. It was intentional.”
“Intentional? Your enemies?”
Andrew wondered if it was Jack’s business rivals.
Alice nodded. “Someone stole the laptop with the bar footage.”
“So it was aimed at you. That narrows down the suspects.”
Alice said, “It must be Chloe!”
After all, if the video was exposed, Chloe couldn’t maintain her innocent and kind image in front of every one of the Welch family.
She was the one who most wanted that video destroyed.
“The Garcia family is also a suspect. The driver hasn’t been found. Only the Garcia family has that kind of power!”
“You’re right. Chloe doesn’t have that kind of reach in

“You’re right. Chloe doesn’t have that kind of reach in Washington. She probably told the Garcia family. They did this to protect Max!”
Alice didn’t expect that the Garcia family would be so ruthless.
They’d tried to kill her!
“The laptop is gone. The evidence is probably destroyed.”
“No. I copied it and gave it to Jack.”
