Chapter 238
Caleb’s grip on Chloe’s hair tightened. He showed no mercy.
Chloe’s tears streamed down her face. I was injured yesterday. If I had gone to Alice, reporters would have led things on went on my injuries improved.”

“You’re lying! You could go to the hospital discreetly. You didn’t want to go. You wanted to drive a wedge heren me and Alice, dider pour
Raged, Caleb slapped her.
Chloe nearly knocked off her feet.
She stumbled towards Noah and pleaded, “Noah, I’m truly sorry I’ll apologize to Alice and seek her forgiveness
Relentless, Caleb pulled Chloe back and kicked her.
When Noah saw Chloe motionless on the floor, he intervened. “Caleb, stop! Do you want to kill her?
Caleb, with his face bandaged, glared at Chloe.“She deserves it! If this bitch hadn’t lied and manipulated me, we wouldn’t he bewer
Caleb had been up for days, unable to sleep.
He had been so wrong about Alice, and the humiliation was crushing
Chloe subtly showed her injuries to Noah.
Noah frowned at the sight of those injuries.“Caleb, aren’t you at fault too? You didn’t trust Alice.”
“Noah, if you thought Alice abandoned wouldn’t
you,
you
be
angry
too?”
Caleb looked so uneasy. He refused to admit fault.
He had been deceived by Chloe.
Caleb glared at Chloe.“Apologize now, or I’ll kill you!”
He was furious.
Chloe wrecked his relationship with Alice.
Chloe nodded frantically.“I will. I’ll apologize to Alice immediately.”
“Not only apologize but earn her forgiveness. Even if Alice makes you kneel and lick her shoes, you do it!*
Chloe mumbled, “I’ll try. But I brought you food. I made it myself, especially for Noah. He has a weak stomach. I prepared herbal tonica. Chloe, picking herself up, cautiously offered herbal tonics to Noah.
“Noah, I heard you have a weak stomach. I asked the maid about how Alice made it and experimented until I got it right. Try it.”
Noah hesitated after taking a look.
But seeing Chloe’s injuries and remembering Alice’s herbal tonics, which he hadn’t had for a long time, he tasted it.
It was surprisingly similar.
Chloe asked nervously, “How is it?”
Noah’s tone remained cold despite Chloe’s servitude. “It’s okay, but not as good as Alice’s.”
“Noah, I know that, but I wanted to do something to make up for it,” Chloe said, wincing in pain.
Noah softened slightly. “Apologize sincerely to Alice. Don’t use your old tricks. Otherwise, we’ll hate you, and you’ll lose your place in the Welch family.”
“I know, Noah. It’s all my fault, not Caleb’s.”
Chloe took full responsibility.
Caleb’s mood improved.“Good. You’re a driver’s daughter, but you live a comfortable life in my family. The Welch family doesn’t owe you anything. One more trick, and you’re out!”
Chloe lowered her head in fear, but her eyes were vicious.
She wouldn’t leave easily.

While limping out, she feigned weakness and collapsed before Ethan.
Ethan rushed over worriedly to help Chloe up. “What happened? You’re hurt badly
Chloe weakly shook her head. “I’m fine. I need to apologize to Alice, explain everything, and get her to forgive Caleb
She then pretended to faint.
Chloe wouldn’t apologize.
Ethan had the doctor take Chloe away and then confronted Caleb “You could teach Chloe a lesson, but you have gone too fart She has a beskan
rib!”
“Ethan, stop pretending. Didn’t you leave Chloe behind with me yesterday? Don’t lie. I didn’t intend to hurt her
Ethan looked uneasy. “But you didn’t have to hit her that hard! Her father died saving our parents. If this gets out, how will the Welch family face anyone?”
“But Ethan, don’t forget that I attacked Alice because of that woman!”
*Caleb, you
feel sorry for Alice now, but she doesn’t feel sorry for you. You may as well focus on the live stream incident.”
Caleb stated, “Chloe needs to apologize to Alice. Then Alice will drop the charges.”
Caleb was also a victim, deceived by Chloe.
Ethan scoffed.“Solve it yourself. I can’t help you.”
In the next room, Chloe woke up, realizing she had a broken rib. No wonder she felt so much pain.
Chloe texted someone, “Caleb almost killed me. Why do I have to continue this act?”
“The more injured you are, the more sympathy you’ll get from Ethan and Noah. Money is key. Once we ruin the Welch family, you won’t have to depend on them anymore.”
Chloe recalled meeting her father yesterday. He was alive.
She asked about the accident. He said he had an appointment and a friend replaced him.
But Chloe suspected he was lying.
The Welch family always said Chloe’s father was the driver. When was he replaced?
Chloe didn’t press. She just wanted her father’s help.
Chloe gritted her teeth. Once the Welch family was ruined, she would exact her revenge.
Soon after Chloe fell asleep, she was dragged from bed by Caleb.
He looked at her coldly.“Get up. Go apologize to Alice.”
The earlier Caleb handled this matter properly, the earlier he would be fine.
Having no time to resist, Chloe was forcibly taken away.
Alice received a message from Caleb.“I brought Chloe to apologize. Let’s talk.”
Normally, Alice wouldn’t meet the Welch family.
But now, things were different.
Alice went to the underground parking garage. Caleb was careful to avoid the media outside.
As soon as Alice walked out of the elevator, she saw Caleb dragging Chloe out of the car.
Chloe was injured, and her face was bruised. Alice smirked.“Chloe, you should know your place. You’re just a driver’s daughter. What makes you think you can compare to me?”
Pushing Chloe to her limit would expose the person behind it all.
Chloe glared at Alice, her eyes burning with rage. She wished she could kill Alice.
