< Chapter 390 Chapter 390 Seeing Ethanâs spiteful gaze fixed ahead, Noah dropped the topic.
This incident caught everyone in the Welch family off guard.
No one expected Chloeâs dad to still be alive.
Menu Theyâd been poking around the accident vehicle but never thought their chauffeur could play a role.
Word had it that they had caught someone, so Alice took a taxi straight to the address Elena sent.
Alice felt uneasy the entire ride.
After all this waiting, the truth was finally about to be revealed.
The taxi pulled up to a deserted factory on the outskirts of town, now mainly used as a scrap warehouse.
Alice got out and saw Jack, wearing black sportswear and a hat, heading her way.
âHow is the wedding going?â he asked.
âYou know, I got my revenge. The wedding was off. Chloe wanted to tell her dad, but I stopped her,â Alice replied.
Jack patted her head and said, âItâs good to let it out.â
âWhere is he?â Alice asked.
to find out what exactly car happened in that accident.
She really wanted Just then, the screech of brakes interrupted them.
Alice turned around and saw a car come to a stop. Ethan and Noah got out She frowned and said, âI didnât notice they were tailing me.â
Given everything that had happened at the wedding, she thought Ethan would be more focused on finding the money.
Noah, who was stopped by someone, called out to Alice, âHey! We deserve to know what happened too.â
Ethan glanced at Alice, too afraid to say anything.
Jack shot them a cold look and said, âLetâs wait for Alice to find out. You didnât help. Donât think you can just take advantage like this.â
Noah looked a bit annoyed. âWe know Alice deserves the credit. Weâre not trying to steal it; we just want to know the truth, okay?â
Ethan kept quiet, mostly out of shame.
But he had to admit that he was also curious whether Chloeâs dad Darren Black had survived. Alice shot them an icy glance and warned, âYou better listen to him and wait your turn.â She kept Ethan and Noah at a distance and followed Jack forward.âEven if we get him, we canât hand him over to Ethan,â she whispered.
âI know, but thereâs a little hiccup at the moment,â Jack replied.

< Chapter 390 âA little hiccup?â
Menu Alice walked into the factory and saw a middleâaged man with his hands and feet tied, and his mouth gagged.
She recognized at a glance that he wasnât Darren.
âNo, heâs one of Darrenâs relatives,â she thought.
Jack explained, âOur men tracked the account and caught this guy, but the other got away and is still on the run.â
Aliceâs heart lurched again.âMaybe Chloe sent a message or did something that let the guy get away.â
âI donât think so. If sheâd tipped them off, both would have bolted. No way one would still be here.â
âChloe had another phone. Darren called that number, but I intercepted the call,â Alice said with a frown.
âMaybe thatâs what made him suspicious,â she wondered.
Then she added, âI think that was the reason. The guyâs super cautious and knows how to stay under the radar. Thatâs how theyâve managed to stay hidden all these years.â Jack looked at her and said, âSorry, I didnât catch him.â
The failure left him both irritated and frustrated.
He couldnât believe someone had managed to escape right under his nose in Washington.
âDid the end money up in this guyâs account too?â Alice asked.
âYes, it seems he and Darren were planning to split the spoils together,â Jack answered Alice frowned again and asked, âSo, did we get anything useful out of this guy âNot yet. Iâve been too busy tracking down Darren,â he replied.
Jack looked at her and continued, âNow that youâre here, you can start grilling_him.â Heâd been waiting for Alice to show up so she could ask all the questions she had been having. gag Jack glanced at the middleâaged man beside him and swiftly removed the blindfold and the from his mouth.
The man opened his eyes, and his face changed dramatically when he saw Alice. Alice stepped closer and asked, âYou know me, right?â
âI... I donât know you,â he stammered.
âStill denying it? You were at the Welchâs villa, and you even killed the butler.â Hearing this, the middleâaged man started to panic.
âYouâve met Chloe before. Youâre Darrenâs cousin,â Alice said, staring into his face. âWhere did Darren go?â
âI donât know what youâre talking about. Darren already passed away.â i âThen who was the guy you were splitting the money with today?â Alice demanded.
The man lowered his head and remained silent.

< Chapter 390 Menu Jack grabbed Aliceâs hand to stop her.âLeave it to my men. Theyâll get him to talk. Letâs go.â
Jack took her out.
The questioning process might get bloody, and it wasnât something Alice needed to see.
Soon, a scream rang out, but it was quickly silenced.
Jack held Aliceâs hand and noticed it was cold. With concern in his voice, he said, âWeâll find Darren.â
âNow that heâs on alert, he wonât show up easily,â Alice said, feeling anxious and frustrated. She had been eagerly waiting for this day, but in the end, he still managed to escape.
She couldnât shake the nagging feeling.
Something important might have been missed along the way.
Jack hugged her and said, âLook, if heâs broke, he canât hide forever. Plus, the guy we caught must know the whole story and will tell the truth eventually.â
Alice leaned against his chest, the rhythm of his heartbeat filling her Finally, she calmed down, realizing she had been a bit too anxious.
She had hoped to catch Darren today.

But after hiding for so many years, it was clear he wouldnât be found so easily. If he were that foolish, the car accident would never have happened.
After a while, Elena walked out and said, âThe guy passed out, still not talking. Itâll take some time to get him to talk.â
away and take your time Jack narrowed his eyes and said icily,âThen take him Alice pulled away from his embrace, looked at Elena, and said firmly, âYou have to get it out of him.â
âMs. Welch, donât worry. Itâs only a matter of time before we get the answers. Plus, with his gambling habit and debts, heâll crack soon enough.â
Alice knew that he and Darren both liked gambling.
It explained why the Garcia family managed to bribe them.
Elena and her team came out, quickly stuffed the middleâaged man into the van, and drove away.
Alice looked at Jack and said, âBut now, the Welch family knows, including Chloe, even though she hasnât admitted it.â
âJust tell them then. Thereâs no point in hiding anything now. Weâll see how they handle Chloe. Maybe that phony bitch will give us something useful,â he remarked.
âYeah.â
Alice turned her head and looked to the side.
Ethan and Noah watched from a distance, anxiety gnawing at them.
Alice walked straight over. Noah was the first to break the silence, asking, âAlice, how did it go? The man they took awayâheâs Darren, right?â
Alice coldly looked at them.âThatâs right. Heâs Darren.â
