Chapter 285: Chapter 293

Chapter 293 Alice knew that with more clues, they would find something.

Menu Mandy continued, “This man is Chloe’s second cousin once removed–her father’s first cousin.” Cousins?“Did you find Chloe’s father?”

“That’s the strange part. We’ve been watching this man. He works as a mechanic at the 4S store, lives in the staff dorm, rarely goes out, and has limited social connections–a lonely bachelor.”

Alice was disappointed; they hadn’t found Chloe’s father.

Jack held Alice’s hand.“Don’t worry. Now that we’ve found this man, finding Chloe’s father is just a matter of time.”

“I know, I’m just anxious.” Alice hadn’t expected her suspicions to lead to this discovery. Alice calmed herself.“So Chloe’s father is an ordinary person. But he dared to kill, and he installed anti–hacking software on Chloe’s phone. That’s not something an ordinary person would do.”

This was odd.

Jack pondered.“Since he dared to kill, and more than once, a fugitive would be more cautious than the average person.”

“Yeah, how did such a fugitive become my parents‘ driver?” The car accident wasn’t simple; the driver had a problem.

Jack’s excitement grew.“We’ll figure it out. Stay calm.” He’d investigate relentlessly.

Alice nodded.“Unfortunately, Lewis interfered with the foundation matter. Otherwise, the person behind Chloe would have shown themselves, providing more clues.” But she wouldn’t give up.

Jack looked at Alice.“But about the driver, it’s been years. You can only ask the Land family.” Alice knew she could only ask Nathan. Ethan was too kind to Chloe. Nathan handled family affairs and must know. But Nathan was in surgery; she needed to ask him in person to avoid complications. Any slip–up could make Chloe’s father flee. She had to be careful.

Jack saw her expression.“Let’s eat first. Trust the PR firm’s Mandy quickly said, “Ms. Alice, leave this to us.” The PR firm didn’t have that much Jack’s network that was helping with the investigation.

it was Alice and Jack went to Pear Garden for dinner. They ran into familiar faces. Alice saw Lewis and Chloe, laughing and heading towards Pear Garden. Lewis spotted Alice and frowned.“What are you doing here?”

Alice said calmly, “Having dinner.”

“Did you find out Big brother is having dinner with the Chens, so you came to cause trouble?” Lewis glared at Alice. He couldn’t believe she was doing this to his girlfriend.

Alice laughed; Ethan was indeed trying to appease the Chens for Lewis’s sake. It seemed he felt guilty about the amputation.

Chloe said quickly, “Alice, I know you’re angry, but you can’t disrespect Big brother and Fifth brother. Offending the Chens will hurt the Lands.” She didn’t want Alice to interfere; Lewis had solved the problem. Her father could only kill people, not help with this.

Chapter 293 Alice sneered. “I’m not interested in your family drama.” She took Jack’s hand and walked towards Pear Garden.

Chloe said resentfully, “Alice, you can’t enter without Big brother’s permission.” Lewis followed in his wheelchair.”Alice, is this your poor boyfriend? Don’t embarrass the Lands. If you break up with him, I’ll take you inside,”

“Yes, Alice. Pear Garden is members–only. Only high–status people can Jack’s lips thinned.“Pear Garden? Is this place so important?”

Lewis sneered. “You have quite an attitude. Do you have a membership?”

Jack said calmly, “No.”

calmly, “No.” Did he Did he need membership? He a shareholder.

Chloe laughed.“You can’t get in without a membership! Alice, why didn’t you tell your boyfriend? How embarrassing!”

The manager rushed out with staff. Chloe proudly approached.“Big brother must have sent them to greet Fifth brother and me.”

Ethan felt guilty towards Lewis.

The manager pushed Chloe aside. His staff lined up, as if welcoming someone important. Chloe, pushed aside, pouted at Lewis.“Fifth brother, it hurts!”

Lewis yelled at the manager.“Are you blind? My big brother arranged this for us, didn’t he?” He thought they were sent by Ethan.

The manager, arrogant, moved Lewis to the corner. Lewis’s face turned red.“What are you doing? Wait until Big brother finds out!”

Chloe was surprised; they weren’t there for Lewis. Who were they waiting for? The manager stood before Jack and Alice.“Please, come in.”

Jack didn’t react, as if this was normal. Alice was calm; she knew the manager was showing respect to Jack because of Garrett.

It was a slap in the face for the Land family. Alice, arm–in–arm with Jack, looked at Lewis and Chloe.“Do you have memberships?”

Chloe gritted her teeth.“Big brother does.”

“Oh, but you don’t. Ethan is busy with the Chens; he won’t be able to greet you.

Alice saw Lewis and Chloe’s faces turn green. She happily entered with Jack. Jack glanced meaningfully at the manager, who understood. He looked at Chloe and Lewis.“No membership, no entry.” Ethan had called ahead, but Jack had spoken, so they had to be stopped.

Chloe felt embarrassed.“Fifth brother, call Big brother.”

Lewis did, but Ethan didn’t answer. They were stuck outside.

Alice laughed in the private room. Jack opened the window.“Look.”

Alice saw Lewis and Chloe standing outside in the cold. She laughed She laughed happily.

Jack wiped her tears.“Happy now?”

“Yes, I feel so much better.” Alice looked into Jack’s eyes; her heart raced. They were close. She turned away, feeling uncomfortable standing by the window. But she saw another group arrive.

“Mrs. Wilson?”
