Chapter 380

Mary

Alice could see the smug satisfaction in Chloe’s eyes, her expression radiating with self–congratulation.

Chloe noticed and gleamed with satisfaction as she deliberately tightened her face, trying to look displeased.

Chloe’s joy only grew as she said, “Alice, we’re family, after all. If you come back to help the family, I’ll speak to Ethan for you. I’ll even let you have this position.” Anyway, the Welch Group would be reduced to nothing at that time.

Even if Alice came back, it would be with nothing but debts, no gain to speak of. Just the thought of Alice’s downfall the next day filled Chloe with a deep sense of satisfaction. Aviana and Haley were there too, and they’d witnessed everything. Then the Wilson family would hear of Alice’s disgrace.

Chloe thought, “Would Jack still want Alice by then?”

Alice could feel the calculating malice in Chloe’s eyes, a cruelty that was hard to suppress.

Alice kept playing her part, storming into the hall with a scowl, fuming. She glanced at the wedding candies and fruit platters on the table, then, without a second thought, shoved them to the floor.

Noah rushed over, concern written all over his face.“Alice, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing,” Alice muttered, “Just that my house has been made a mess, and it’s putting me in a bad mood.”

Alice’s dissatisfaction was clear.

Chloe, still giddy from her wedding preparations, sauntered out and smiled at Alice. “Don’t worry. After the wedding, I’ll make sure everything gets back to normal.”

Alice huffed in response, not bothering to acknowledge her.

Chloe, with a skip in her step, walked away humming her little tune.

Noah, seeing Chloe’s smug look, gently tried to console Alice.“Don’t let it bother you, Chloe’s just overly excited about her wedding. She doesn’t mean anything by it.”

Alice lowered her voice.“Have you asked Ethan yet? Did he say anything?”

Noah shook his head.“Ethan’s keeping tight–lipped. It’s like he knew you’d ask.” Despite claiming she didn’t care, Alice couldn’t help but wonder if Ethan had been lying.

Every clue and detail mattered now.

Noah, in a lowered voice, said, “Alice, did you uncover something? I want to know what happened parents, too. Was there something more behind their
