Chapter 52

Alice walked ahead, but Noah quickly caught up.

“Alice, I investigated. The butler was negligent, Но he’s here to apologize.” The butler approached. “Miss Alice, I was careless. I didn’t notice the defective supplies. I’m sorry. Don’t blame Noah.”

Chloe emerged.“Alice, the butler’s old. It was a mistake. Don’t worry about it.”

Alice stood there, her expression distant and cold. They thought an apology would fix everything?

“That’s hilarious.’Old age,‘ but only Alice’s supplies were messed with? Yours were fine?” Garrett got out of a car parked nearby and started to rant.

Jack rolled down his window, his gaze intense. “Get in.”

Alice went to the car without hesitation. Noah hurried forward. “Wait, Alice. We sorted things out, Can you come home?”

Alice shook off his hand.“No!”

“Alice, what do you need to be satisfied?”

Jack got out, his face cold, shoving Noah aside. “Need a mirror? To see your selfish face?”

*Selfish? I’m worried about her!”

“If you were worried about her, you wouldn’t have forced an apology before her exams. You think she’s throwing a tantrum because she rejected your apology. Her feelings are paramount. But you only care about clearing your name, not whether this affects her. That’s selfish.” Noah was speechless. That wasn’t his intention.

I just didn’t want Alice to misunderstand!”

Jack retorted, “Did you consider if she was ready to hear your expression? What if it affected her exam? Is an apology so high and mighty? Does it absolve you of responsibility?”

Noah was silent.
