Chapter 190
Jack flicked her forehead. “What are you thinking about?”
“Nothing.”
Alice didn’t press further, but she would settle the score.
They arrived at the school.
Alice looked at him. “I’m going back. Don’t get your arm wet for a couple of days.”
Jack frowned, silent.
Alice found four bandages and put them around his wound.“There you go.”
“What are you doing? Are they waterproof?”
“They’re not waterproof, but they’ll show if you have taken a shower.”
Alice smirked.”I’m leaving.”
Jack watched her enter the school, noticing the pink bandages on his arm.
He smiled. She was so childish.
However, he didn’t remove it. He just let it be.
After Alice went to school, Jack’s expression turned dark.
His tone was dangerous.“What about those bastards?”
He hadn’t acted in front of Alice, but that didn’t mean he would let it go.
The trainer checked his phone. “They have been caught and punished. What should we do with them?”
Jack lowered his window, tapping his fingers.
His voice was cold.“Shut the trainer’s mouth. Warn him not to talk. Have them testify and send that creep to jail for life.”
The trainer nodded. That jerk was supposed to be in jail.
Jack looked towards Harvard University with deep eyes.
His phone rang.
Looking at it, he hesitated for a while before answering, “Hello, Mom.”
“I heard you were injured?”
Jack’s eyes turned dark.“No.”
“Don’t lie to me. I know you went to the hospital.”
Jack rubbed his temples.“No big deal.”
“Did you get hurt because of that girl? The car accident was because of her too!”
“It has nothing to do with her.”
He knew going to a hospital owned by the Wilson family would be discovered, but he had no choice. He didn’t want Alice to suspect anything.
“Jack, if you like her, I won’t stop you. Bring her to meet me. What family is she from?”
Jack’s voice was low.“No need.”

“Her background is not impressive, is it? You’ve always had high standards. So many girls like you. Why her?”
“It’s complicated. Don’t investigate her.”
Td like to, but you’re so protective. No one can find anything.”
Amber was frustrated. She hadn’t found anything. He was very protective of her.
He wouldn’t have done that if he didn’t care.
After a brief conversation, silence fell
Amber sighed and hung up.
Jack glanced at his phone and called John. Bar music played in the background.
“Where are you?”
“Jack, I’m at a bar. Want to join?”
“Go home and be with Mom. Don’t be out partying.”
Jack hung up. With John at home, Amber wouldn’t bother Jack.
The boxing trainer said anxiously, “Mr. Wilson, I shouldn’t have taken you to that hospital. It’s my fault.”
He realized his mistake after hearing Amber’s call. It was too easy to be seen.
Jack slowly closed his eyes.“Just keep her safe.”
Jack could handle his affairs.

Alice, back in the dorm, thought about the gym incident.
Jack, usually calm, had been impulsive.
Usually, he was noble and cold, but when he fought, he was different.
Did Jack have a secret identity?
The next day, Lana forwarded a post. “A pervert was arrested at the gym across from school. Be careful! Many girls
encountered him.”
Alice checked the post. It was about yesterday’s incident.
She was right. That creep had harmed multiple girls.
Those girls were students, so they were no match for a criminal.
She’d done society a favor yesterday.
But Jack was injured. She texted him, “Awake?”
“Yes. What?”
“Show me a picture.”
Jack leaned against the head of the bed.“Where do you want to see?”
After reading the message, Alice quickly locked her phone, afraid of someone seeing it.
She calmed down and unlocked it.“The bandages yesterday.”
“They’re still on.”
“I don’t believe you. Show me.”

“Or you can see them yourself?”
Alice stared at her phone. Was he being serious?
Alice went to the team base for practice after class.
Their goal was next year’s finals. They must work harder to reach the finals.
Alice logged on, and someone sent a friend request
It was John!
She accepted, typing, “How did you know my ID?*
John was sucking on a lollipop. Of course, he knew Alice’s ID.
He must build a good relationship with Alice so that he could help his brother win her over and fight against their family.
This was his great plan.
John replied, “Your fans know.”
Looking at John’s ID, Alice felt complex emotions. He might be the person she had a crush on in her past life.
She pondered for a while and typed, “I have a question for you.”
“Just ask.”
He knew everything about his brother, even his secrets.
He was sincere to Alice.
Alice hesitated.“Hypothetically, would you withdraw from the final for someone or something?
John had withdrawn from the finals in Alice’s past life.
Everyone was surprised.
People suspected the Welch Group had threatened him.
But Alice knew John was from the Wilson family, so the Welch family had no power to do that.
John didn’t know the answer to this question.
Why was she asking?
He was caught off guard.
John didn’t reply, so Alice said, “Never mind.”
“I don’t know the answer because I haven’t thought about it. After all, I’m professional, so I won’t quit without a good
reason.”
Moreover, it was the finals.
Alice must have a reason to ask.
To test his dedication?
His mother didn’t approve of his gaming career. If his brother hadn’t approved, he wouldn’t have had the chance.
John thought for a while.“Let me think. There is someone who could make me quit the finals.”
His brother!
