At the entrance, Irvin ended the call and shouted to grab Ethan’s attention, “Ethan, she’s upstairs!”

At the same moment, Aurelie’s car had already sped out of the yard from the service hall.

“You’re incredible.” Aurelie turned to the side and praised her companion from the bottom of her heart.

“It’s all thanks to you. You’re the best helper.” Alice’s compliment was as sincere as the other woman’s, and she wasn’t only making it up.

Since Ethan brought a group of people in search of her, Alice also brought in outside help as a precaution. Thus, she seized the opportunity to call Archie when she was descending by the elevator.

Never did she expect the person coming to her aid would be a big help. Aurelie’s history alone was enough to help Alice throw suspicion off. Besides, Aurelie’s acting was also convincing.

Most importantly, Aurelie and Ethan were acquaintances. Ethan would lower his guard and suspect them lesser due to what he knew about Aurelie.

After all, he could conveniently reach out to Aurelie for information as he knew her background if he changed his mind later.

“You’re good at imitating people’s voices. Are you a natural?” Aurelie was still wondering about the way Alice’s voice worked.

“I practiced hard.” Alice didn’t bother going into details regarding the topic due to the complex web of interests. It wasn’t a hard thing to learn at all once you got the hang of it.

Even so, she put in a lot of effort to practice at that time.

Her master also contributed to her achievements today. Her master taught her unique ways to disguise in both appearance and vocal aspects according to the family teachings with a long history.

Once the car turned around the corner and completely out of Ethan’s view, Alice requested, “Miss Freeman, can you pull over? I’ll get off here.”

Even though the call a moment ago distracted Ethan from his plan, she wanted to make sure nothing went wrong.

Aurelie was taken aback for a moment before she understood Alice’s motive. “All right.”
