Chapter 245
# was the first time Alice had seen Caleby’s face since his injury.
She had wen him once before in front of the police station, but his face had been bandaged, and she could not tell how badly it had been hurt
This time, she saw it clearly.
The scar on Caleb’s cheek was long and swollen. The raised red scar was unsightly.
For Caleh, who worked in the entertainment industry, it was devastating.
Alee could tell that the seat on his face was deep. Elimination and repair would be hard.
It was silent in the office.
Caleb looked dejected. He took out a velvet box and opened it on the desk.
Alice saw a set of pink diamond jewelry inside, including a necklace, bracelet and ring,
Caleb said in a hoarse voice, “I know you gave Chloe that diamond ring I gave you as an apology, so I bought you a new set to make up for it.”
Alice glanced at the jewelry, finding it ridiculous.
She said coldly, “I don’t need these items now?
“Alice, I shouldn’t have treated you the way before. But I was deceived by Chloe. I thought you had abandoned me. If I’d known the truth earlier, I wouldn’t have done that
Alice remembered her tragic previous life.
Honestly, she didn’t believe him.
Caleb watched Alice’s expression as he spoke. His heart sank. She was as heartless as Ethan had said.
Alice sat on a chair. Are you done? Take those items back. I have things to do.”
She looked cold and unmoved.
Caleb couldn’t help but say, “Alice, you see how my face is injured now. Even if you drop the lawsuit, my career is ruined. Do you really want to put me into prison?
“If you say so, then it should be Chloe who goes to prison. She did it, didn’t she?”
Caleb fell silent. She deleted the video she had shown me before, and I can’t find any proof that she was behind the matter.”
“Then you should go to Chloe, not me.”
Alice put on a mocking face. “Do you think because your face is ruined that I should drop the lawsuit and take all the blame?”
“That’s not what I meant.”
“Well, I have misunderstood you. Okay, you can leave now.”
Alice didn’t want to waste time on him. She was busy.
Caleb found it incredible. He stepped forward.“Alice, I’m your brother! I’m the biggest victim!”
If he’d done it, he’d admit it.
Caleb was unconvinced. “I was also tricked by Chloe! Alice, why can’t you understand me?”
Understand him?
Alice replied with sarcasm in his voice, “So what? Do you think I am going to forgive you both after you beat Chloe and made her her knees in public to apologize to me?”
“You got me wrong, but Chloe is the real culprit! She should be the one to go to prison!*
Caleb thought he was innocent.
Alice laughed outright, “Then you should have Chloe take the blame for you, just like how Luke did for her.”
Caleb’s face darkened. Chloe was protected by Ethan. There was no way she’d go to jail for him.
He looked at Alice’s back and said disappointingly, “Alice, no wonder Ethan says you’ve become heartless. I finally see the real you.”

Quade, in the bat
Alice focused on practicing with her team, oblivious to Caleb’s departure.
After training, she received a message from Jack, “I’m at the school gate. Come out when you’re done.”
Alice suddenly fel nervous
She grabbed her bag and made her way to the school gate, where she saw Jack’s car parked on the side of the road.
She couldn’t help but touch her hair before walking over to get in the car.
Here you are!
Jack surprised her by giving her a bouquet of flowers. She took the flowers and said, “Thank you.”
“Why are you so surprised?”
Alice looked at the flowers in her arms.“I feel a little weird. You don’t seem like the type who will send flowers.”
“Anyone can send flowers, unless they pretend they don’t know how.”
As Jack drove, he asked, “Did Caleb’s fans give you any trouble?”
“Well, they resorted to every trick to force me to let Caleb off. But I won’t give in.*
At least not yet.
If Caleb failed to let Chloe pay for what she had done this time, she might have to go back to the Welch’s house herself to expose Chloe’s true
face,
Alice said, “Since they claim to be family, I really want to see what they will do in moments of conflicting interests, if they will sacrifice for each other or turn against each other.”
Jack was slightly relieved to see that Alice was not affected.
Alice suddenly asked, John is a trending topic today. Did you know that?”
Jack’s hand paused.“Really?”
“Yes, he seems to be clarifying that the news of his elder brother’s engagement to Julia is a rumor, and that his elder brother has already found someone he likes.”
Jack’s throat tightened.“What do you think?”
“It’s hard to say, John clarified the engagement to be a rumor, but the two main characters should be the ones to clarify it. Do you think so? Who knows what’s going on in those wealthy families? There may have been a temporary conflict between the Wilson family and the Garcia family. Or they may announce the engagement later.”
“It’s impossible.”
Jack denied it immediately.

Alice did not think he could have thought of such an idea himself.
As they approached the helicopter, Alice asked, “Are these helicopters rented or bought?
“They are not rented”
Jack often weed helicopters to save time due to his busy schedule.
Alice nodded, thinking that Andrew had bought them and lent them to Jack.
She didn’t ask further.
Surprisingly, as Alice boarded the helicopter, a woman’s anxious voice called out, Jack, it’s me…”
Jack turned around and saw Julia approaching. His face instantly changed.
