Chapter 378

Alice hadn’t expected the boss of PZ Company to show up at the wedding.

She remembered how, in her past life, the elusive boss of PZ Company always kept a low profile, rarely showing up in public and letting underlings handle all the business dealings.

It wasn’t until PZ Company collapsed that the boss was finally caught.

Yet, by then, no one had heard a peep from him for ages.

That was what made Alice uneasy.

Jack hadn’t uncovered much either. They were careful not to tip anyone off, not wanting to alert the wrong people, so they kept their investigation subtle.

Everyone was waiting for clues from Chloe, hoping to catch her father before making any moves. Alice didn’t respond immediately, and Finn assumed he had managed to intimidate her. Finn grinned triumphantly, “Our wedding’s going to be held right here in this mansion. We’ve invited all kinds of important people. A lot of companies are eager to partner with PZ Company, but they don’t have the chance. They’re all taking us seriously now.”

Chloe also beamed with satisfaction, adding, “Alice, after I’m married, I’ll change the décor back. Will you be fine with that?”

Alice kept her face neutral, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

She was curious to meet the boss of the PZ Company.

Noah stepped in to smooth things over.“Alice isn’t opposed. She’s probably just saying it to keep things civil.”

Chloe felt a pang of discomfort, thinking that Alice was deliberately provoking her. Chloe flaunted the necklace around her neck.“Thanks for the gesture, Alice. Do you think my necklace looks good? Finn insisted on buying it for me today.”

Finn, eager to boast, added, “We’re getting married, so of course I’m getting you the best. Unlike some people who look all shiny on the outside but have nothing underneath.” Noah immediately knew Finn was referring to Alice.

His

gaze turned complex as he stared at Alice and thought, “Who would have thought that the poor school doctor was actually Mr. Wilson?”

Noah found it strange and wondered, “How did this person end up in the school, and why was he so close to Alice?”

If it was a coincidence, it was one heck of a coincidence.

Unable to hold back, Noah asked, “So, Alice, what’s the deal with you and Mr. Wilson?”

“It’s nothing special.”
