Chapter 232

Alice stared coldly at Ethan, whose face had paled.

She spoke with biting sarcasm, “You claim to do everything for the family. Noah was wheeled out, clearly unwell, yet you didn’t show your concern about him.”

“Alice, is that a good way to speak to your brother?”

Ethan’s voice boomed.

Alice remained calm.“The guiltier someone is, the louder they yell to mask their mistakes.”

Ethan was silenced by the comeback.

He helped Noah up, noticing how thin Noah had become. Ethan could lift Noah up effortlessly, who was surprisingly light.

Ethan was concerned.“Why have you lost so much weight? You were supposed to have surgery for your stomach problems. Didn’t you go?”

Noah, in his wheelchair, pushed Ethan’s hand away.“Ethan, I would have been waiting for surgery in the hospital, but this happened, and I had to come.”

“I’m back from my business trip now. I’ll handle all these things. You focus on your surgery. If it’s serious, we can get Alex to come back for your surgery.”

“No, it’s not that serious. No need to bother Alex.”

“Didn’t she say you had cancer? Isn’t that serious?”

Ethan suspected that Alice was lying and exaggerating the severity of Noah’s condition.

Noah smiled bitterly and didn’t admit that.“It’s not true.”

Ethan turned on Alice, and furiously snapped, “Did you hear that? Noah doesn’t have cancer. You want us to suffer, don’t you?”

Alice glanced at Noah and said nothing; some people just couldn’t be reasoned with.

It was her own fault for interfering.

She turned to leave, but Ethan yelled from behind, “Alice, do you think you can just walk away? Caleb is disfigured, and you’re still comfortably in the hospital?”

She turned back.“They haven’t told you the truth. Wait for the police report.”

Alice just let it pass.

Ethan, unwilling to give up, tried to follow, but Elena and her colleagues stopped him.“Mr. Welch, one more step, and we’ll call the police. This will negatively affect the Welch family. Think carefully.”

“You’re Caleb’s PR team, right? Why are you working for Alice now? How much is she paying you? I’ll double it!”

Elena’s expression was strange.“It’s not about money.”

The Welch family seemed oblivious and out of their minds; a girl protected by Jack wasn’t about money,

“But working for Alice will be difficult.”

Elena smirked. “Mr. Ethan Welch, Ms. Welch was also injured. You didn’t show

about her. The assault during the livestream was probably real.”

Ethan’s face was grim.“You don’t understand Alice. Because of her, our family is falling apart.”

Noah’s illness, Luke’s impending imprisonment, and now Caleb’s predicament.

It was all Alice’s fault.

Noah explained, “Ethan, do you not know Caleb’s temper, or are you pretending not to?” Caleb had always had a violent temper, which was known to all of them.

Ethan rubbed his temples.“I just don’t understand why Alice wouldn’t compromise. We treated her well. Why is she sending her brothers to prison and ruining their careers?”

“Ethan, you know why Luke is in prison, and Caleb attacking Alice isn’t new. You know it all too well, but you’re forcing her to submit.”

Noah also knew it clearly. He said, without holding back, “You’re so tough with outsiders, but you treat your own sister this way? You’ll regret it.”

“I won’t regret it! I helped you all build your careers to avenge Mom and Dad in Washington. Look what Alice did!”

That was Ethan’s true anger.

But he couldn’t turn back now; he had to save what he could.

Alice returned to her room.

That night, Jack, busy with work, sent Pear Orchard’s food.

Elena said, “Ms. Welch, the police should release their preliminary findings tonight. We can do a live stream explaining everything. Wearing your hospital gown and showing your injuries would garner sympathy.”

“Okay.”

Soon after Alice finished her dinner, the police released their preliminary report.

“In light of the incident where Welch (female) was allegedly abused during a live broadcast, a thorough investigation has revealed that Welch (male) did indeed engage in acts of violence. Further details will be released upon completion of an in–depth inquiry.”

The statement immediately trended.

Caleb was a popular star, and the allegation of violence caused a swift reversal of public opinion.

He was labeled as violent.

Also, other incidents surfaced–allegations of his having bad tempers and being prone to physical aggression, assaulting cast members too hard to cause slap deaf, all previously hushed up.

But now all surfaced,

Alice, seeing the opportunity, went live, with a script prepared by Elena.

When Alice appeared in front of the camera, her small face was deathly pale, and there were still injuries on her body.

It worked without any makeup.

She spoke, “Everyone knows my family’s problems. They refused to let me attend Harvard University by holding back my admission notice, wanting me to stay local. I tried to escape and start anew, but they wouldn’t let me go.

“The live stream was my only weapon to show Caleb’s true colors.

“He’s always been violent. If I disobeyed, I’d be beaten…”

Alice, pale and red–eyed, explained the events of that night.

She wiped her tears.“Caleb always portrayed himself as a good brother. His excellent deception made no one believe me. I hope justice will be served.”

After she finished her words, Caleb’s fans swarmed her livestream, attacking her, leading to a

fierce online battle with her followers.

Suddenly, a request for a live video chat appeared.

She took a glance and found the verified name was Caleb.

What did Caleb want to say?

Elena signaled her to ignore it and end the stream.

Alice complied and looked at the PR team, asking, “Ignoring him is fine?”

“Yes. It won’t be Caleb; it’ll be his manager. He is disfigured; he won’t appear in public until his face’s fixed unless he wants to quit the industry.”
