Chapter 126: Chapter 126

Chapter 126 Chloe, nursing her injuries, cried, “Brother, you saw! I was trying to persuade Alice to apologize and return home. She pushed me down the stairs!”

Ethan rushed to Chloe’s side, supporting her.“Chloe, don’t worry, I’ll get justice for you.” He yelled at his secretary, “Call the police!”

Chloe, feigning vulnerability, said, “Brother, if we call the police, Alice will have a record. Let it An apology is enough.”

go.

Seeing Chloe’s graciousness, Ethan felt protective. He confronted Alice. You hurt Chloe, but she’s forgiving, worried about you getting a record. Are you even human? Is this how I raised you?”

As Ethan spoke, Jack covered Alice’s ears. He whispered, “Don’t listen; it’s filth.”

Alice’s heart trembled; a wave of emotion washed over her. The joy was overwhelming. She’d been controlling her feelings for Jack, but he’d re–entered her life. It was hard not to fall for him.

“Alice, I’m talking to you! Are you deaf?”

Alice snapped back, “My hearing is fine. Some people need an eye exam.

“If you apologize to Chloe before the police arrive, we won’t press charges,” Ethan said, wanting to give her a chance. He didn’t want her to have a criminal record.

Alice found this laughable–typical Wind behavior. Their condescending attitude hadn’t changed.

Alice’s tone was sarcastic.“Apologize to Chloe again? Am I born to apologize to her?

“It’s for your own good!”

“Oh, really? I find it disgusting!”

Ethan’s voice cracked.“Alice, I’m giving you a chance!”

Jack’s voice was arrogant.“She doesn’t need anyone’s chance!”

“She’s relying on that man! This is Peking, not your small town!”

“Oh,‘small town? Brother, don’t forget where you came from. Don’t be so ungrateful!” Alice realized Ethan had changed; Peking’s wealth had blinded him.

Jack looked at Alice. Leave if you’re uncomfortable. I’ll handle this.”

“No need. Let’s wait for the police.” Alice looked coldly at Ethan.“You said assault leaves a record, right?”

“Yes, scared now? Break up with that boy and apologize to Chloe!”

“Apologize? In your dreams!” Alice wasn’t afraid.

Soon, the police arrived. Chloe cried out in pain. Ethan pointed at Alice. She hurt wanted the police to teach Alice a lesson.

my sister!” He Chloe, triumphant, said, “Alice, I would’ve forgiven you if you apologized, but you refuse to admit.

it.”

“Chloe, you’re too kind. Alice doesn’t deserve it.”

“Brother, we’re family! We can’t let Alice go down the wrong path!” Chloe feigned innocence.

The police looked at Alice. “Ma’am, you’re suspected of assault. Please come with us. Jack’s face hardened.“Who dares touch her!”

Ethan sneered. “Boy, this is Peking!”

Jack’s expression was calm.“So?”

Alice stopped Jack, turning to the police.“Assault occurred, but I’m not the culprit. She is!” She pointed at Chloe.

Chloe panicked.“What are you saying? You’re shifting the blame!” No one had seen what happened; no one would believe Alice.

Ethan laughed coldly. “This is your defense? Accusing Chloe?”

Chloe said, “Alice, T didn’t Want 01 press charges, but you’re too much.” “Are you serious? You attacked me first and fell; now you’re playing the victim?”

Chloe hung her head.

Ethan fumed.“Alice, you’re disappointing! Still denying it!”

“I didn’t do it. Prove it! Do you have evidence Chloe hit me first?

“Yes,” Alice smiled, gesturing to the wall.“There are security cameras outside; they captured everything.”

Chloe’s face went white! There were cameras here? Stairs usually didn’t have cameras! This was bad. If the footage was shown, she was finished. Luke’s attitude had already changed; losing Ethan’s trust would be disastrous.

Alice said coldly, “The truth will be revealed.”

Jack glanced at Alice; she was prepared.

“Brother, let it go. It’s my fault. Even if I’m injured, we’re family. This is unnecessary.” Seeing the situation, Chloe grabbed Ethan’s arm.“I feel dizzy and nauseous. Brother, take me to the. hospital.”

Alice smirked.“Trying to run? Not a chance!”

“Alice, don’t even think about running away!!” Ethan roared. He was determined to make Alice pay. Chloe felt triumphant; Alice would be arrested and have a criminal record. She would never surpass Chloe again. Chloe feigned sadness. Alice, I would have forgiven you if you’d apologized...”

“Chloe, you’re too kind...”
