Chapter 204

Jack, his face grim, walked directly to Alice. She was startled by his sudden entrance. Seeing hist expression, she took his hand. “I’m okay.” Don’t start a fight. Ethan would use it against them. But she wouldn’t let Jack take the fall.

Jack, seeing Alice’s calm expression, relaxed slightly. He looked at Ethan. Had he been too lenient. with the Alice? Letting them walk all over Alice!

Ethan’s gaze lingered on Jack, his expression complex. He looked like someone from the Wilson family!“Who are you?”

“Who he is isn’t important right now,” Andrew Yates said, entering the office, his usual affable demeanor replaced with an air of arrogance.

Ethan’s face changed when he saw Andrew Yates.“Mr. Yates.” He’d met Andrew Yates at a social

event.

Luke was surprised.“Brother, you mean he’s “the” Andrew Yates?”

“Yes,” Ethan said. Luke’s expression changed. He’d met Andrew Yates several times in New York, always because of Alice. Back then, he didn’t know his identity. That explained why it had been so difficult to find Alice when she ran away. He’d assumed the nurse was important. It was Andrew Yates all

Yates all along! Was Jack not her boyfriend, but Andrew Yates?

Ethan asked Luke, “You know him?”

Andrew Yates said smoothly, “Yes, I’ve met Mr. Luke several times. Unpleasant encounters.”

Ethan frowned. He’d known nothing about this.

Luke explained hastily, “I didn’t know Mr. Yates’s identity. I apologize for any offense. I was only trying to protect my sister.”

“Your protection? Little Lemon would’ve been dead if it weren’t for others,” Andrew Yates sneered.

Ethan was uncomfortable. “Mr. Yates, your words are harsh.”

“I’m not wrong. Your ‘protection‘ and ‘concern‘ were always conditional on Alice’s concessions, sacrifices, and apologies. Without them, you wouldn’t protect her, would you?” Andrew Yates was always blunt.

Ethan’s face changed, but he couldn’t retort. Offending Andrew Yates would be disastrous for the Alice Group.

Luke looked at Andrew Yates. “We were wrong. Alice is our only sister. She’s never lacked for money. She’s not someone to be tossed aside.”

Jack said coldly, “Isn’t your only sister Chloe?”
