OH PLEASE, MY EX-WIFE

Chapter 97: Imprisonment



The matter of Alice's imprisonment is known by John and he feels anxious.

The five years of time left him not too much, as long as he cannot forget about Alice one day, he will never change for a day, and will always be the silly boy who is tortured by love.

When there is desire, there is sorrow, and when there is sorrow, there is fear and trembling, fearing that one will not get what one desires.

He hates himself for not being there for Alice when she needed it most, and even more so for the man who had been hurting her in the name of loving her, Edward Smith.

Edward is the first and last one for Alice, the past that John cannot participate in.

The first thing John reacts to is, what about the two adorable treasures, Alice's biggest worry should be the children! John goes to check on the children first and lie to them that Alice had gone on a business trip. Fortunately, the two adorable treasures are exceptionally sensible and believe in his words.

This make John feel much relieved.

Just what he doesn't know was that the two cuties actually already knew the whole thing, Albert had secretly investigated the evidence, and Rebecca is looking for information about the various administrative mistakes that George had made, and they will not be lenient with anyone who dared to hurt Mummy again!

The first thing John does after settling down the children is to go and meet Alice.

They have seen each other often over the past five years, but none of them have been through barred windows and layers of guards like this one.

The corner of Alice's mouth quirks up and she laughs at herself, "Come for visiting the prison?"

After looking at John's worried face and expression for a moment of grudging resentment, she laughs and says, "Do I look like those unjustly accused women in ancient times, Dou E? Or Suzan?"

John also laughs, she is long gone from the weak woman who was so weak that she only knew how to cry five years ago, in such a tough environment, she is even able to entertain herself for a while, she had really grown up a lot. "What are you going to do for later, Albert, Rebecca and your mother?"

The cheerful atmosphere is instantly broken, yeah, she is already at her lowest point, Joanna should not deal with her family, but so what, a sick old man with two children, how could they survive in this society with such high pressure. Although she has only been sentenced to three years, but as a doctor, she would really have no way out if her life is tainted later on, and with two children, they would definitely be looked down upon in school.

Alice thinks a lot, but she cannot say anything, the future is within reach, but it is not an easy path.

"Alice, what exactly are you and Edward now..."

Although John doesn't want to admit it very much, but at this time, he really does not have much strength and spirit to compete with the head of a city, but Edward can.

Therefore, at this time, John even hopes that Edward has not given up on Alice yet, and then he will do everything he could to save her.

"How do you see my situation?"

That is, it does not work out. After five years together, he knows Alice very well. In some ways, she is really a stubborn girl.

Back then, in the beginning, John hated Edward, after all, he did not protect Alice properly and let her suffer so much harm.

And Alice also has a scar in her heart because of this matter, there is no way to trust anyone anymore, nor could she accept anyone else, John does not know whether to hate Edward or pity him.

"This time it's better to let him step in, after all, I don't have enough energy, and this matter is also their Smith family's matter."

Both of them sigh at the same time, one hates that his inability, nothing is more ironic than needing to use someone else's strength in order to protect the one he loves.

The other one who sighs, even if they let out more harsh words and did more cruel things, the connection between them has not broken.

Fate is a wonderful thing.

The visiting time is limited, no more words can be said, and there is enough understanding between both of them that things are a little tougher for the Robert family, but it is not really a hopeless situation.

Of course, the priority is to go back and settle the family's heart first, while going to contact Edward afterwards.

Edward is abroad but no one knows how to contact him, John's heart is such as burning but Alice is more worried about Jacqueline's situation, she doesn't know how it is now.

John returns to the Robert family and it has been the afternoon, with Alice's advice to the children and her mother, as well as the idea of wanting to clear Alice's grievances.

John prepared a lot of things, many things are able to circulate a wide range of collection in the era of network, just like those witnesses, he always has to listen to one by one about the kind of evidence they are talking about.

The most important thing is to contact Edward, and now the biggest turn of events of Alice is in the hands of Edward, he is pivotal in the Smith family, and speaks with great weight. So, finding some evidence information or anything else will be relatively easy. Yes, John's purpose is not just to get Alice out of prison, but more importantly to clear her name.

Resume is so important to the society, just like what Alice said, she does not want the future of her two children to carry a dishonorable reputation, and when she gave birth to them, she wanted them to be able to live a righteous life in the first place. Contacting Edward is a difficult task, as the people in the Smith family are trying hard to prevent John from contacting Edward, John tries for a long time to get Edward's contact information in the United States from a retired old secretary.

As soon as the call is made, John feels a pain at the back of his head and lost consciousness. Only a clear voice from the phone is heard on the ground: "Hello, hello..."

Edward says a few words without anyone paying attention and hangs up. Although his contact information is rarely known, this is really not the first time for a harassing call.

When John wakes up, his head is still stuffy in pain, the back of his head is like being knocked off, when he shakes his head, it will be thumping.

His phone and wallet are not with him anymore. The only thing left is actually the recorder he bought two days ago in order to find witnesses, it is still the new one, hidden in his inside pocket, in order to record their remarks and study them carefully when the witnesses are not paying attention.

But what's the use of this? He can't make phone calls, ugh, better than nothing.

In his current situation, he seems to be in an empty villa, the general room looks good but there is no furniture, he is lying on a pile of shabby bedding, the whole room looks a kind of low-key mystery, who can afford such a villa must be either rich or noble, so who did this? Soon after John wakes up, someone curses and comes to bring him food, the food is okay.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

The person put down the food and leaves without asking for money and seeking revenge. Something is wrong.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
