Chapter 424

Alice was suspicious of Garrett’s motives. He definitely had some hidden agenda.

Garrett became a bit angry and embarrassed.“Alice, I used to date Chloe. Even after breaking up, we’re still friends. She hasn’t been to school for some time and no one can reach het. She’s an orphan. No one knows what’s happening to her at the Welch residence.”

Alice gave him a cold look.“So what?”

“Chloe needs to come back to school and attend classes. The Welch family has no right to keep her locked up at home.”

“Who said we locked her up?” Alice questioned Garrett.

“Who told you that? Who asked you to do this?”

Normally, Garrett wouldn’t chase after Chloe because he was the kind of guy who did as his mother said, not to mention the incidents at the Parker family banquet.

Besides, rumors were circulating about Chloe’s

sleeping with an older man at her wedding ceremony.

Garrett’s expression turned a little awkward.“That’s none of your business. If you keep confining Chloe, I’ll call the police.”

Alice looked at him with a smirk. “You didn’t know, did you? Chloe is pregnant.”

“Pregnant?” Garrett seemed genuinely taken aback.

Alice continued, “Chloe is at home resting during her pregnancy. She’s not being locked up. If you don’t believe me, go ahead and call the police.”

Without another word, Alice walked away.

She figured Garrett was trying to get Chloe out of the Welch family’s control.

She wondered who exactly wanted to see Chloe so badly.

It had to be someone from the Garcia family.

But it wasn’t clear yet whether the Garcias were planning

threaten Darren into keeping quiet.

Alice lowered her voice, “Make sure not to let Chloe escape. The Garcias would love to have her as a hostage.”

“I know, but did Darren say something?”

“Darren agreed to turn himself in. But just to be safe, keep a close eye on Chloe. If she falls into the Garcias‘ hands, do you really think she’ll side with the Welch family?”

Noah knew Chloe well enough. She was a complete ingrate.

He said, “Got I’ll have someone watch her.“.

“Good. Make sure you talk to Finn about this, so he doesn’t get fooled by Chloe and let her go. She’s a valuable hostage.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure Chloe can’t escape,” Noah promised.

He then asked, “So when do you plan to turn Darren over to the police?”

“When the time is right,” Alice replied, hanging up without intending to share more with him.

It seemed the Garcia family was about to make their move.

Alice went to class. News of Aviana’s kidnapping was all over the internet, with all sorts of detailed rumors.

Some even claimed that the kidnappers had taken disgraceful photos of Aviana to blackmail the Garcia family.

After all, Julia was a prominent socialite in Washington. Thus, many people were interested when her mother experienced such a significant

event.

Alice was puzzled about who was spreading these rumors all over the place.

She texted Mary to ask about it.
