Chapter 213 Alice saw the bodyguards and knew Caleb was prepared. She stepped back. âThis is illegal.â âYouâre my sister. Itâs a family matter. The police wonât get involved,â Caleb said, closing in.âCome with me willingly, or Iâll force you. Choose.â
Alice found this ironic.âDo I have a choice? She was trapped. Caleb hadnât changed. Caleb took her phone, checking her contacts. The nurse? Unfortunately, he canât save you this time.â Alice knew fighting was futile. If she fought back, sheâd be the one hurt. She let Caleb drag her to the car.
Calebâs tone softened.âYou made Luke ill, and you messed up Brotherâs company. But youâre still our sister. Apologize, and it be over.â
Alice remained impassive. Caleb said, âIâm talking to you. You were always obedient. Everyone praised me for having such a good sister. Donât disappoint me.â
âAre you finished?â Alice said.âDid they mention I cut ties with the Alices? Brother agreed.â
âBrother agreed. I didnât.â
Alice said coldly, âMr. Caleb, you didnât say that at the party.â Heâd said heâd never speak to her again.
âCall me Brother. I was just angry. I couldnât humiliate myself in front of everyone.â Caleb produced an Hermès box. I bought two scarves. One for you, one for Chloe. Choose.â
Alice looked at the scarves.âGive them to Chloe.â
âNo, one is for you.â
âMr. Caleb, Chloeâs father helped our family. If you donât give her a scarf, people will think poorly of the Alices.â
Caleb grabbed her chin. âAlice, Iâm not patient. I havenât hit you in a while. Donât test me.â
âAm I wrong?â
âYes. Youâre my only sister. Chloe isnât as important.â
Alice sneered, âBeing your sister is terrible. I get beaten up.â
âYou get beaten because youâre disobedient. I used Chloe to discipline you. You improved. But youâre reverting.â Calebâs face hardened. But youâre my sister. Iâll teach you.â
âTry it.â Alice punched Caleb in the face with all her might. She hadnât fought back earlier because of the bodyguards.. Now it was different. Only she and Caleb were in the back seat.
Caleb instantly lost consciousness, blood flowing from his nose. The driver screamed, âMr. Caleb âStop the car!â Alice threatened, her hand around Calebâs neck.
The driver pulled over. Alice released Caleb and ran. But he woke up, holding a cloth over her nose and mouth, pulling her back into the car.
âAlice, this was for you. But you were good earlier, so I didnât need it. You disappointed me,â Caleb said.
Alice knew the cloth contained an anesthetic. She passed out, Caleb released her, wiping the Chapter 213 blood from his face.
The driver suggested, âBoss, should We tie her up?â Alice seemed strong y sister!â
Caleb slapped him. âTie who up? Sheâs my Caleb slammed the car door. Drive to the hospital. His face was already swelling. Sheâd gotten stronger, and she fought back.
At the hospital, Caleb carried Alice to a private room. Luke, look who I brought!â âAlice? Sheâs unconscious?â Luke looked overjoyed but noticed she wasnât awake.
âBrother, what happened?â
Caleb touched his swollen face. âGetting her here wasnât easy.â
Luke offered his bed. He checked Alice, frowning.âHow did you bring her here?
âWe were talking, and she punched me unconscious.â Caleb was pleased, but also annoyed that Alice had gotten stronger and rebelled.
âBrother, you shouldnât treat her like that. That stuff is harmful!â
âI know what Iâm doing.â A nurse treated Calebâs injuries.
Luke sighed. âBrother, Aliceâs grown up. We canât treat her like before.â
âBut look what happened after her college entrance exam. She ran away, went to Washington, and angered the Mos. Luke was arrested. If youâd been stricter, this wouldnât have happened.â
âThis time, we were wrong,â Luke said, finally understanding it wasnât Aliceâs fault.
Caleb looked at Alice.âI was in isolation, and the filming was a mess. I had to leave. If Iâd been there, she wouldnât be like this.
Heâd raised her.
Luke removed Aliceâs shoes and covered her with a blanket. He whispered, âBrother, Iâll handle this. Donât use those old methods!â
âGot it.â Caleb was impatient.
His agent arrived. Mr. Caleb, you have an event tonight. What happened to your face?â
âNothing.â
âNothing?! Your face is important!â
Caleb, unfazed, looked at Alice. âBrother, Iâll be back later.â

âGo. Donât treat Alice like that again.â
âYou think youâre not happy to see her here?â
Luke was exasperated. He wanted Alice to visit, but not like this!
Just as Caleb left, Aliceâs phone rang. It was Jack. Luke hung up and silenced the phone. Alice was still family to him. He looked up and saw Alice awake. He felt guilty.âAlice, youâre awake.â Alice got out of bed. Luke got her slippers.âAlice, put on your shoes.
The floor is dirty.â Alice reached for her phone. âGive me my phone.â
âAlice, youâre here. Stay a while.â
