Chapter 248

"Yes, I fainted, but I know what happened to those men..."

"Enough!" William would not hear her explanation, he went completely berserk, and tightly held her hand, "Go and bathe! Right now!"

"I don't want it."

Alice said firmly.

After taking a shower, nothing could be found out.

"I said go!" William roared, staring straight at her.

Alice was scared by his almost sinister look, but she still stubbornly stood there, unwilling to compromise.

"Alice, you..." William roared, then suddenly reached out and pressed his hand to his stomach. He bent down, the pain causing his face to turn pale.

Alice stared at him blankly, "William, are you alright? Your stomach hurts again?"

It had been a whole night since yesterday.

William probably did not sleep for the entire night, nor did he eat anything.

William pressed hard on his stomach, cold sweat trickling down his handsome face. Alice said worriedly, "I'll go make some food for you."

With that, Alice was about to leave, but her arm was grabbed by William.

His slender hand pressed on her bruised arm, causing Alice to frown in pain. William half bent his waist, turned and glared at her, then said word by word, domineering, "Go take a bath! Be good and wash yourself clean! Do you hear me?"

"William, why do you not believe me? Just when will you be able to trust me unconditionally?"

Alice looked at him, puzzled.

Did he really not believe in her loyalty?

"Can you take a bath first?"

William only cared about this, holding her with one hand and pressing on his stomach with another.

Alice knew that she could not persuade him in a short time, so she could only say, "I'll make some food for you first."

"If you don't take a bath, then I won't eat!"

William growled, then let go of her hand and sat on a chair.

Alice looked at him in shock.

William sat there, in unbearable pain, and crazily pushed another chair to the ground, as if this would make him feel better.

Alice watched as his back became more and more bent and his face became more and more pale. Bean-sized cold sweat dripped down his forehead, directly fell onto the ground.

Alice was heartbroken.

His stomach was already in a bad state, so if he continued like this, something severe might happen.

Before, when she didn't love him, she could argue with him to the end. But now, when she fell in love with him, how could she argue with him, a paranoia, especially arguing on his body?

Looking at her miserable appearance, she closed her eyes and bit her lips before saying, "Okay, I'll go take a bath."

Hearing that, William's long hands changed to grabbing, tightly grabbing onto the shirt on him.

"I know you're paranoid and tyrannical, but I still want you to believe me."

Alice said indifferently, she turned around and started walking out, it was hard to walk one step at a time.

"Alice, I love you!"

William's voice came from behind her, he said with determination.

Alice walked to the door, and heard his voice. Her body stiffened for a second, and her eyes froze.

Why did he suddenly say that he loved her?

What was this? Did he believe her, or did he not?

Alice could not figure out what William was thinking. She was waiting for him to continue speaking, but William did not say anything. She could only hear him trying his best to endure the pain, and he was unable to even breathe.

Alice walked out, endured the pain, and made a simple sandwich for William. Then, she headed to the hot spring to take a bath.

She was completely submerged in the hot spring. Warm water dripped down her cold body, making her feel much more comfortable.

She was alone in the empty indoor hot spring.

A faint herbal aroma wafted through the hot spring.

However, Alice also knew that with this bath, she would no longer have any evidence to prove her innocence.

Why not believe her?

Was she so untrustworthy?

Then what about love?

Alice closed her eyes and stood alone in the hot spring, patting the water surface angrily.

Water splashed everywhere.

Time passed minute by minute, and her body began to recover its temperature. She slowly opened her eyes. The emotions in her eyes had calmed down a lot.

William had a paranoid personality disorder.

Stubborness and suspicion are all parts of the problem.

She shouldn't have gotten angry with him when he was being suspicious. Daniel had said before that she shouldn't go against William but to guide him.

Guide.

After she finished bathing and treated herself, she would go and have a chat with William, and wait for his emotions to be stable.

Perhaps, he would change his mind.

Didn't he finally believe in her about the incident on the cruise ship? As long as you speak properly, it should be possible...

Alice thought to herself, and soaked in the hot spring for a long time before finally climbing out.

This kind of medicinal bath was really effective. She had only bathed, yet half of the bruises on her body had already disappeared. She really felt like those bruises had been forcefully wrung out by someone, making it looked like she was raped.

Since she was only twisted, the bruises gradually disappeared after soaking in the spring.

Alice put on a pajama and walked into the infirmary. A female doctor immediately came over to treat her wounds.

Her wrists and ankles were covered in bruises, and her skin was torn.

"Miss Alice has suffered." the doctor bandaged her wound and let out a sigh, "This wound can't be considered severe, but they're not mild either, so you should take care of yourself. You should get a good rest to heal."

"Okay, thank you."

Alice nodded.

There were still two small wounds on her face. The doctor pasted a piece of Band-Aid on her cheek, the wound on her lips couldn't be treated that way.

Alice stood up from the chair and touched the bandage on her wrist.

She did not know if she really had a bad fate with William, when she met him, bandages kept appearing on her body.

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard. "Something has happened!"

A maid rushed in, and upon seeing Alice, she was momentarily stunned. She hurriedly lowered her head respectfully, "Miss Alice."

"What happened?"

Alice asked.

"It's..." The maid pursed her lips, not daring to speak.

"What happened?" Alice continued.

The maid hesitated for a moment before saying, "Young Master and Madam are quarrelling. They are having a very serious argument."

"What?" Alice was stunned, "On the fifth floor?"

"Yes."

Hearing that, Alice immediately walked out, and without looking back, she walked towards the elevator.

Why did William suddenly get into an argument with his mother?

Wasn't he supposed to care about her matter now?

Alice took the elevator to the fifth floor.

The elevator door slowly opened in front of her, and she saw Daniel and a group of golden -haired and blue-eyed bodyguards standing in the hallway. As soon as she stepped out, she heard William's frantic roar, "Elizabeth, why are you doing this? On what basis?"

William's anger was even greater than before.

Following the voice, a crisp sound rang out.

An oil painting was smashed, its frame falling apart.

Alice listened in astonishment, and turned to look at Daniel, and asked puzzledly, "Steward Daniel, why is William arguing with Elizabeth?"

"This..."

Daniel looked at her, wanting to say something but hesitated. He thought for a moment, guessing that it was impossible to hide it, and said: "Miss Alice, you might not know, the hotel is reserved by Young Master, and most of them are his own people. So it is impossible for Mary to enter the hotel with just a few people." William said that she would be fine in the hotel, but when she saw Patrick's silhouette, she just followed him.

Then something happened.

Alice looked at Daniel and heard the sounds coming from inside. Suddenly, she understood, and her eyes widened in shock.

"Young Master had the hotel's surveillance video, two people took you out in the elevator in the garbage cart. One was a stranger, and the other was one of Young Master's bodyguards." Daniel told her the truth, "When he captured the bodyguard, he was just about to escape, and was tortured for an entire night before revealing that it was done by Miss Mary."

"And then?"

Alice listened in a daze.

So the process of finding her was like this.

That stranger was probably the bait Mary found to lure her over. He was too similar to Patrick, and the other bodyguard was trying to ensure that she would be successfully transported out.

"Miss Alice, I have personally picked every single one of Young Master's bodyguards. I only have one request for them, and that is absolute loyalty." Daniel said, "This point, perhaps even Madam does not know about it."

"What do you mean?"

"With Mary's means, she won't be able to move any of Young Master's bodyguards." Daniel sighed, and said, "In here, the only person who has the ability to do so is the Madam."

Hearing this, Alice's face turned white, "In other words, Madam is cooperating with Mary?"

This was the only possibility.

""

Daniel nodded silently.

The Madam thought that she was the only person behind the scenes to achieve her goal without anyone noticing. However, she didn't expect that Young Master would see through everything.

Alice closed her eyes. So it was like that, the few men in masks were probably found by the Madam, otherwise how could they not be moved by her offer of large amount of money.

So it was like this.

Alice laughed bitterly, "Was it my words about not wanting to be a lover that angered the Madam?"

Daniel sighed, and considered to be a silent reply.

Madam must have seen that she would rather learn until faint than admit defeat.

In the end, she stubbornly refused, so she came up with some ruthless methods to deal with her.

That was cruel.

"Bang!"

A pile of things crashed.

As one might imagine, the living room was now the same as the scene of a disaster.

Alice walked forward and stood outside the glass door to look inside.
