Chapter 341: Chapter 355

Chapter 355 Chapter 355 Menu Alice knew that Aviana still wanted her to withdraw her charges against Max. Elena moved in front of Aviana.“Sorry, Ms. Welch needs rest.”

“Who are you? How dare you stop me?”

Aviana’s voice was haughty, ignoring Elena. After all, Elena was just a member of the public relations team, and Aviana felt there was nothing to be afraid of.

Alice looked at Elena.“You can go. I’ll speak with Mrs. Garcia alone.”

Elena nodded.“Ms. Welch, call me if you need help. The instructions I received from Mr. Wilson were to ensure your safety and protection.”

Aviana glanced at Elena, then faced Alice.“Looks like Jack has lots of people watching you.”

“They’re the PR team, like my assistants, not spies.”

Alice’s calm reply irked Aviana.

Aviana sneered, “Alice, you’re being naive. This is clearly surveillance.”

“Mrs. Garcia, did you forget that my family is also very wealthy? The Welch family may not be big in Washington, but we’re known in New York.”

“Are you sure? Don’t overestimate yourself and your silly family.”

Alice’s gaze was icy.“Mrs. Garcia, I heard the Garcia Group has been mismanaged lately and is nearly collapsing. Without the Wilson family’s help through orders and contracts, it would have gone bankrupt long ago. So, the assets of the Garcia family are far less than those of the Welch family.”

Aviana’s face shifted.“Where did you get that information?”

“Rumor or not, you know the truth. That’s why you’re pushing your daughter to marry Jack”

“Alice, drop the act. My daughter’s right; your look is irritating.”

Aviana moved closer to Alice.“As a woman who’s been lied to, how can you judge me?”

“Cut to the chase. What do you want to talk about?”

Aviana composing herself.“You want to know what Jack’s hiding, right? Here’s a deal. Drop the charges against Max, and I’ll tell you the truth.”

This truth would devastate Alice.

Alice glanced at Aviana and said, “Okay.”

“You agreed so quickly? So, you must really want to know Jack’s secrets. I’ve reconsidered. Besides dropping the charges against Max, you also need to end your relationship with Jack and stay away from him.”

Aviana eyed Alice with a smirk, confident she was in control.

“You’re talking too much nonsense,” Alice said, staring at Aviana.

“It’s fair,” Aviana responded.

Aviana stepped closer and whispered, “This truth will hurt you deeply, but leaving Jack will ease your pain. I’m helping you.”

said that no one is allowed to enter while Alice is resting.”

Mers Jack, looking severe, entered the ward. He approached the bed, his piercing eyes on Aviana.“I heard you wanted to speak with Alice alone. What did you say to her?” Aviana, facing Jack’s stare, retreated two steps.“Nothing. I just saw your mother struggling and wanted to talk to Ms. Welch, hoping to prevent more issues.”

“Really?”

Jack’s intense gaze bore into Aviana as he moved closer, forcing her back to the door.

Aviana’s frustration showed.“Jack, I’m here for your mother. Why don’t you trust me?” “A selfish person like you wouldn’t help my mother without a hidden agenda. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do.”

Aviana wavered, her knees buckling. “I don’t understand what you mean.”

Had Jack guessed what she planned to tell Alice?

Jack’s expression was severe.“You’re trying to make Alice drop the charges at the police station, aren’t you?”

Aviana’s voice shook with anxiety.“What’s wrong with that? Max is innocent. She was framed.”

“Take that up with the police, not behind my back with Alice.”

Jack’s voice was menacing.“Max has committed numerous errors, even leading to a death. She needs to face consequences now.”

“No, Jack. You saw Max grow up. At that time, your mother even wanted to adopt her as her goddaughter. Don’t you recall?”

Hearing Jack, Aviana panicked. If Jack got involved, it it would be irreversible.

Jack shoved Aviana’s hand away.“Leave.”

“Jack, please. Our families are close. Please, help me.”

Aviana was truly scared.

Jack pushed Aviana to the door and said softly, “Keep quiet if you don’t want the Garcia family lose everything.”

Aviana looked at Jack, stunned. Had he figured it out?

Jack was threatening her to stay silent about the car accident by mentioning the Garcia family’s financial ruin.

Aviana was slightly happy. This seemed to be Jack’s flaw.

Could she exploit this?

Jack then shut the hospital door, ignoring Aviana.

Elena approached Aviana.“Please leave, Mrs. Garcia.”

Aviana glared at Elena.“You told Jack, right? It’s really a pity that Alice can never marry Jack. You flatter her so much, but in the end, you will get nothing out of it.”

Aviana left angrily. She had to rethink her plan.

Chapter 355 Inside the hospital room.

Alice saw Jack coming. “Why are you here now? Is your work at the company done?” “Are you alright? What did she tell you?”

Jack looked worried. He was afraid Aviana had already said something to Alice. Alice shook her head. “She asked me to break up with you and leave you. She also said that it was because of me that your grandmother fell critically ill.”

“My grandmother’s illness has nothing to do with you. I know you were just trying to make her happy.”

“But I screwed up. She must be angry because of what I said.”

Alice felt defeated and looked at Jack seriously.“How’s your grandmother now?”

She’s fine.”

Jack noticed Alice’s expression and got anxious.“Alice, about what my grandmother said...”

“I’ll remember it.”

Alice stared at Jack’s attractive, handsome face. She couldn’t help but wonder if he had always had many admirers.

Suddenly, she felt very jealous of those girls who could openly pursue him. Jack quickly got nervous.“Alice, my grandmother doesn’t dislike you. She said that because...”

“Because what?”

Alice looked at him and softly touched his face. She looked at his eyebrows, nose, and then his lips.

Jack tensed up. He felt a surge of panic.

Alice focused on his lips.“Are you keeping something from me?”
