Chapter 241

Jack knew who was calling without looking at his phone. They spoke simultaneously.

“You take it,” Alice said.

Jack took the call and moved away. Alice returned to her room, opening her laptop. She quickly attempted to access Chloe’s phone but found the implanted malware was gone.

What happened? Had Chloe discovered it?

When she tried to re–implant the malware, she encountered a firewall attack. Chloe’s phone had anti–hacking software. Alice withdrew; she’d alerted Chloe. How had Chloe discovered it so quickly? This was a problem; Chloe would be far more cautious.

Looking at her laptop, Alice suspected Chloe’s father was far more than he seemed. She increasingly suspected the car accident had a hidden truth.

Meanwhile, Jack went downstairs and found Mrs. Yates still there. Mrs. Yates’s tone was strained. “I came to see that girl. You’ve been doing a lot for her.” She’d thought Jack was just having a fling, but he was serious.

“Did you say anything to her?”

Mrs. Yates was surprised. “Say anything? I didn’t even see…” She remembered the girl calling Jack’s name.“It was her?”

Jack nodded. “Yes. You didn’t even know who she was, and you went upstairs arm–in–arm with her?”

“I didn’t want your people to see me, so I asked a patient to take me to the ward. I never expected it to be her,” Mrs. Yates said, adding that she actually liked the girl.

She was agitated. Your taste is good, but she’s not suitable for you.”

“If you think she’s good, what’s unsuitable?”

“Her background is too ordinary. You’re the Yates heir; your wife must be from a suitable family. It’ll be scandalous otherwise.” Mrs. Yates, as Jack’s stepmother, couldn’t let him marry someone. ordinary; it would invite gossip and accusations of mistreatment.

Jack sighed. “Mom, she’s amazing. I’m pursuing her. She doesn’t know who I am.”

Mrs. Yates was frustrated. “I don’t approve. You haven’t told her your identity, which means you. have reservations, right?”

“That’s not my concern,” Jack said firmly, unwilling to reveal Alice’s identity to his stepmother.“Once our relationship is stable, I’ll bring her home to meet Grandma.”

“What about the Garcia family?” Mrs. Yates was worried. Everyone knew about the proposed marriage between the Mo and Huo families. Jack opposed it, but she assumed he’d eventually agree, as these things usually went. But he had a girlfriend!

“Maybe Daniel can marry the Mo heiress,” she suggested.

“She’s much older than Daniel.”
