Chapter 407: Chapter 423

Chapter 423 Menu Seeing someone who looked like Chloe, Alice felt fishy.

She didn’t think it was a coincidence.

Alice didn’t hide the look of surprise on her face. Mary, noticing her reaction, quickly tried to smooth things over.“Luna, this is Alice Welch, my best friend. She’s just surprised to see you here.”

“I get it. I should’ve told you I was coming back. I heard about the situation back home and wanted to check on you,” Luna replied.

Alice snapped out of her trance.

She glanced at the young, elegant lady and masked her surprise.“Mary has mentioned you before.”

“Really? It’s a shame that I can’t do much to help her. A visit is all I can do. Now that I know she’s alright, I can rest assured now.”

Luna stood up. “I’ll help if you wanna turn against the Parker family.”

Mary’s eyes reddened at her words. “Thank you, Luna.”

“Come on. Your brother and I rely on you. Only when you’re doing well could we hope for the same.”

Alice silently observed Luna. Upon closer inspection, she realized Luna didn’t look that much like Chloe.

It was just their outline and the eyes that were somewhat similar.

In this world, there indeed were people who looked very much alike. It was not that unusual.

After Luna left, Alice closed the door and approached Mary.

“Why did she suddenly return from overseas?”

Alice had heard about Luna. She’s Mary’s stepmother, who had been taking care of her frail, sickly son abroad for treatment. She hadn’t returned for many years. It was as if she didn’t even exist.

She didn’t even show up for Mary’s engagement party.

After Mary fell out with Haley, she never mentioned Luna again.

Luna’s sudden return seemed odd. Probably, something was up.

Mary shook her head.“I don’t know.”

“How much do you know about her?”

Alice seemed hesitant. She was a bit skeptical about Luna’s relationship with Chloe, so she intended to ask Mary about it.

Mary looked up.“I know what you’re thinking. She does look a bit like Chloe, but I doubt they’re related. Luna has been with my father for many years.”

Actually, Mary was also startled when she saw Luna.

She didn’t realize how much Luna looked like Chloe until just now.

Alice understood what Mary was implying.

Luna had been with Mary’s father for many years, which indicated that she had no connections with the Black family.

Alice recalled the information she had previously gathered from investigating Chloe. Her mother was from a poor area and had fled due to domestic violence.

She couldn’t have suddenly become the mistress of a big shot.

Besides, the Parker family was known for their investigative skills.

If Luna had any connection to the Black family, she couldn’t have hidden it from them.

Alice finally let out a sigh of relief.

Lana chimed in, “I was scared too. I thought she might be related to Chloe. Turns out that they just look alike. It isn’t something unusual though. Some celebrities look alike although they’re not related by blood.”

Alice nodded. “Maybe I’m being paranoid.”

Perhaps because the Black family was cunning, she just couldn’t let her guard down.

Until she saw the Black and Garcia families in jail, Alice wouldn’t be at ease.

Mary spoke up. “The Garcia family has been investigating the Welch family. They must’ve heard about the Welches‘ financial crisis caused by Chloe’s embezzlement. I guess they would use it against you. Be careful.”

“I don’t care about the Welch family, but the Garcia family will soon have bigger problems. Darren was arrested today. He agreed to confess and 06:48 100.0%

< Chapter 423 tell on the Garcia family,”

Mary was delighted.“That’s great news!”

Lana Menu nodded. “Just like what they say, justice justice always wins Guf sooner or later. They were finally arrested.”

“Yes,” Alice agreed, although she still felt something was off, It all seemed too easy.

Darren had readily agreed to testify against the Garcia That night, Alice couldn’t stop thinking about it.

family, and he didn’t even make any requests.

If only she could remember the details of the car accident from years ago. Then, she wouldn’t have to worry about Darren deceiving her.

But she couldn’t recall anything.

She felt a bit defeated.

After Alice got up the next day, Mary told her, “The Garcia family has taken Aviana back after she was located.”

Alice wasn’t surprised.

Jack had mentioned releasing Aviana. After all, Darren was in custody. Now they just needed to get ready for a showdown with the García family.

Mary hesitated.“The Garcia family seems to to have reported it the police. You and Jack should be cautious.” Alice hadn’t mentioned Aviana’s disappearance, but Mary had guessed it had something to do with Alice and Jack. The Garcia family didn’t report it to the police earlier, likely out of guilt.

Now that they did, it could cause trouble for Alice if this incident were to blow up.

Alice understood what Mary meant and said with a smile, “Don’t worry.”

“With Jack around, there’s nothing to worry about,” Mary chuckled.

Lana couldn’t help but ask, “Alice, what are you planning to do with Jack? He’s done so much for you. He even fell out with his family. I think he’s a nice guy.”

Alice paused before answering, “I know.”

Jack is handsome and devoted to you. Don’t let him slip away,” Lana urged.

Alice sighed.“It’s not that simple between us.”

“I know you’re worried about the future, but life is short. Enjoy it while you can. You won’t die if you break up.” Lana laughed,“He’s handsome and fit. Dating him wouldn’t be a loss.”

Besides, he was so nice to Alice.

Alice checked the time.“Let’s go. We’re going to be late for class.”

As Alice and Lana headed to class, Garrett stopped them Alice was taken aback.“You should ask the Welch family, not me.”

“Aren’t you a Welch yourself?”

mind? You know outside the building.“Alice, did you imprison Chloe?”

“Are of your my relationship with you out She made no secret of her poor relationship with the Welch family. Alice looked at Garrett.“Chloe is married. Why are you still looking for her?”

Alice thought, “I didn’t know Garrett was such a spoony.

the Welch family is terrible,” Alice retorted.

Something is off. What is he up to?”
