Chapter 324

After slapping Ethan, Alice said, ‘Chloe, not me, asked me to buy that cake.

“Alice, are you crazy? Even if I was wrong, why would you throw it in my face?* Ethan was furious, wiping his face with a tissue.

Alice smiled.“Now you remember. Chloe likes that cake, not me. You should thank me!”

Seeing a taxi, Alice got in. Ethan yelled, “Alice, get out! I have questions. Did you deliberately call Mary to Pear Orchard that day?”

Alice looked out the window. “You kept Mary’s identity a secret, didn’t you?”

“I didn’t deliberately hide it! How would I know Mary hadn’t told you?” Ethan’s voice was hesitant. You should have told me you were taking her to dinner.” If he’d known, that incident wouldn’t have happened.

Alice’s gaze was mocking. “If I told you, I wouldn’t have seen that show. Thanks to Chloe, for daring to steal someone else’s dress. People would think she had something going on with you.”

“Alice, did you tell Mary that I have something going on with Chloe?” He realized why Mary had been cold to him. The AI project was crucial, and he couldn’t lose the Parker family’s support. His tone became serious. “Keep your mouth shut.”

“Then don’t be a son–in–law. You can’t handle that kind of life.”

Hearing “son–in–law, Ethan angrily tried to pull Alice out, but the taxi sped away. Alice found it hilarious. Her phone rang; she knew who it was and hung up. At Maple Leaf, Alice went to the tech department to discuss technical issues that required more testing.

The team leader said, “It’s been a while. Congratulations on winning the preliminary round!” “Thanks.” Her colleagues knew she was a streamer.

While Alice tested data, the team leader said, “I heard Windham Corporation is also working on an Al project, competing with ours.”

Alice paused. “Didn’t they lose the bid?” Luke’s team had disbanded, Fourth Brother’s scandal broke, and though she’d agreed not to press charges, it had caused damage, and Big Brother had lost money. Did he even have money to invest in AI?
