Chapter 234

Chloe’s face was ashen; she couldn’t answer. She trembled, “I… I didn’t say anything. Don’t frame me!” If Blake found out, she was finished.

Seeing Chloe’s obvious fear, Alice guessed what had happened.

“I remember when you were almost killed by those thugs in the alley,” Alice said to Blake. “Alice, you remember! Don’t you feel guilty?” Blake demanded.

“Why should I feel guilty? I ran to get help, and I bumped into Chloe. The thugs caught up, threatening us to reveal your location.”

Blake’s face hardened.“Alice, you told them where I was, didn’t you?”

“Chloe told them, not me. If I hadn’t stopped Chloe from revealing your location and led them in the opposite direction, you’d be dead.” Alice remembered; after that incident, Blake’s attitude. toward her had soured, while he became increasingly protective of Chloe. She’d assumed Chloe had stolen another brother, never understanding the reason.

Blake looked at Chloe.“Is that true?”

“Brother, it’s not like that. Alice was scared and wanted to tell them where you were; I stopped her. I secretly found you and took you to the hospital,” Chloe said, her face pale. She couldn’t admit the truth. No one would believe Alice after all these years.

Blake fell silent.

Chloe stammered, “I tricked the thugs away.”

“How? What was Alice doing?” Jack pressed.
