Chapter 421 Menu Alice looked at Jack and asked, âWhat exactly happened?
She suddenly recalled that before this, heâd seemed to say the same thing to her. But later, for some reason, sheâd forgotten to ask. Jack looked at Alice earnestly and said, âThis isnât the right time. Iâll tell you when Darrenâs taken to the police station. This is the most crucial thing right now.â
After all, by then heâd have to be a witness to identify the Garcia family.
By that time, Alice would surely know everything.
Alice couldnât help but wonder, âSince Aviana and Amber are best friends. Did Jack have some other plans? âSince he wasnât willing to say now, there must be a reason.â
Alice didnât press the matter further.
As for Jack did so many things for her, even kidnapping Aviana, it would be a lie if she felt no gratitude towards him. Moreover, Amber must have known about this by now, and surely she despised Alice in her heart.
If she wanted to be with Jack, receiving Amberâs acceptance wouldnât be easy.
Alice looked up at him and said, âAfter I left that day, your mother came looking for you. What did you two talk about?â It was easy to guess that Amber must be very angry about this.
âItâs nothing much. I just told her all about the Garcia familyâs affairs. She wouldnât send her son to jail for the sake of her best friend.â Hearing these words, Alice was silent for a long time.
Alice remembered that Noah had said heâd done so many things with Jackâs help. How would he repay Jack in the future?
âWhatâs wrong? Are you upset? My mother wonât do anything. You donât need to worry.â
After all, it was Jack who kidnapped Aviana. If his mother wanted to expose this and stand up for her best friend, heâd be the first to suffer. So Jack was confident his mother wouldnât do such a thing.
Alice suddenly turned to look out the window. Her voice choked a bit as she said, âItâs nothing.â
At this moment, her eyes were filled with restlessness. Jack was good to her now.
But Alice also knew things between them would not go that smoothly.
Jack noticed the change in the vibe between them.
He said sincerely, âAfter Darrenâs caught, can we have a proper talk?â
There were some things he wanted to clarify with Chloe.
Sunlight streamed in through the car window, making his features more distinct, and his deep eyes were unreadable.
This was the first time Alice heard Jack talk to her so seriously about this.
She knew he wanted to talk about their relationship.
During this time, neither of them mentioned their previous conflicts and disagreements, as if nothing had happened.
But Alice knew some things didnât just go away with only ignoring them.
Now Jack had kidnapped Aviana, and Amber knew about it. No matter how she thought about it, it seemed like a big hassle.
Alice now, it would be unfair to him.
was truly grateful for what Jack had done for her. If she backed out She turned to him and nodded earnestly, her gaze determined.âOkay.â
Once everything was settled, theyâd talk about their relationship.
Even if everyone objected, she was willing to go through difficulties with him.
Jack saw her nod and, unable to help himself, grabbed her hand.âAlice, thank you...â
He murmured inside, âThank you for giving me another chance.â
Aliceâs heart started beating faster.
She felt his slightly warm palm and his intense gaze, which she couldnât resist.
Alice lowered her head and said, âIâm not blind. I know you did a lot.â
Jack was a bit flustered.

< Chapter 421 Just then, the vehicle stopped.
Jack glanced outside, and his gentle expression faded âWeâre here,â he said.
Alice looked out the window. âHas he been caught?â she asked.
Jack glanced at the person in the passenger seat, and only then did that person turn and say respectfully, Heâs been caught Over Bew Aliceâs heart skipped a beat.
held Jackâs hand, bit nervous.â1 She tightly That guy had killed her parents and been on the run for so long!
wonder he had nightmares Jack held her hands firmly. âWeâll find out when we ask. Do you want to go? âLetâs go. If it is only facing you, he will not say too muchâ
year Jack said softly, âThey might be tough, but the person we caught earlier is still at the casino, Sooner or later, theyâll say somethingâ Everyone has weaknesses if theyâre human.
âBut Darrenâs acting strange. He must know his cousinâs been missing for ages, yet heâs stayed at the 45 shop without running, is he that confident we wonât find him?â
Jack said humbly, âI find it strange too, unless he didnât get the money,â
âThat canât be. Wasnât the money transferred? Most likely, itâs in Darrenâs hands!â
Alice couldnât figure it out either if Darren didnât get the money.
So, who took the money?
Jack held her hand.âNo matter what, weâll know once we go âYeah, now the personâs in my hands.â
sce.â
Alice took a deep breath and got out of the car with Jack. She saw it was a small factory.
She walked in with Jack, and someone led the way.
Elena was already there. When she saw Alice arrive, she said directly, âOur people have asked, but Darren didnât say anything.
He said he wanted to talk to the mastermind in person.â
Aliceâs tone turned cold.âThen letâs go see what heâs up to.â
She also wanted to know why he did that back then!
Alice walked into the small room and saw Darren, his features indeed altered, tied up.
Alice looked at Darren.âI didnât expect youâd have plastic surgery. But that day you wore a humanâskin mask to meet Chloe.
Were you worried she wouldnât recognize you?â
After speaking, Alice kept observing Darrenâs expression.
Alice, saw he then and his eyes seemed to be calculating something. surprised, was When the man Alice continued, âDid I surprise you? Let me guess. You thought it was someone from the Garcia family who kidnapped you? Thatâs why you keep insisting on meeting the person who can make decisions.â
The man fell silent.
Alice walked closer. âYou know who I am. No need to pretend. That time, you sent someone to the Welch house to kill the old butler Davis for helping Chloe.â
âI didnât expect it was you. But how did you find out, about the plastic surgery?â
Darren thought heâd been very careful.
âOf course, it was your daughter Chloe who told me. She described your appearance, and thatâs how the portrait was drawn.â
Alice also opened the photo album and showed him the portrait.
When Darren saw the photo, his expression changed.âYou forced her to do this, didnât you? I did it back then. Donât bother her!*
