Chapter 448
Adam’s irritation only grew stronger at Wilson’s words,
Hah, Wilson wanted to visit his beloved sister again? He was going to beat the other man up so badly later he wasn’t going to be able to even stand!
Adam sneered coldly.
“All of you escort Yvette home while I deal with him!” he commanded his men.
“Aye, captain!”
Meanwhile, Alice was examining her injuries at the Robertson Mansion. She pulled a mirror out of her pocket and examined her purpling bruise. The hatred in her heart continued to grow.
“Ouch… that bitch Yvette certainly didn’t pull any punches!”
It was a good thing that she had taken advantage of the chaos and slipped away while nobody was paying attention to her. Otherwise, her fate would have been horrible.
Thinking about everything that had happened just now still terrified her. At the same time, she felt incredibly confused.
Wilson had moved to help the Robertson family the moment Victoria asked him to. Logically, he wouldn’t have let Yvette get off scot–free after seeing her cause Alice to get hurt.
But just why had he been so protective of that bitch Yvette just now?
“Alice, you’re back!”
Seeing Alice standing at the entrance, Molly greeted her warmly. There was no trace of the disgust from before.
“My daughter is amazing! To think you managed to convince the Quinns to invest in our family! We’re saved!”
In the face of Molly’s complete change in attitude, Alice immediately shoved the incident with Yvette to the back of her mind. Her ego was sky–high. She didn’t mention a word about Victoria’s contribution and instead claimed all the credit for herself.
“Mom, now you and dad won’t force me to marry Mr. Luiz anymore, right?”
Molly was all smiles. “Of course we won’t! You’re our family’s savior! You can tell me anything you want, Alice. I’ll get you anything you want!” she declared.
Alice’s face was filled with greed. “Mom, I want Chanel’s latest fashion!”
She would wear the trendiest clothes and put on the nicest makeup. All so that she could show that bitch Yvette up!
Molly immediately hesitated. “Ah, well… the prices for Chanel’s latest clothing has been hiked up to unreasonable prices! They would cost a lot to buy!”
“I don’t care! Chanel’s latest fashion is what I want!” Alice insisted. “Didn’t you just say you’d get me anything I want? I’ve even gotten the Quinns to invest in our family! I deserve a huge reward for such a great feat, Mom!”
That bitch Yvette already had those clothes. She wasn’t about to lose to her!

“Alright. I’ll buy them for you, Alice!”
Molly had no choice. She could only place an immediate order via phone call and reluctantly transfer the
money.
“Mom, you treat me so well!”
Alice was elated just thinking about the fact that the Chanel shop assistants would be sending their latest
fashion over very soon.
“Haha…” Molly’s smile was forced. Her heart was still aching at the huge sum of money she had just transferred away. “As long as you like it!”
“Mr. Robertson has returned…”
Alice ran out excitedly at the household staff’s announcement.
“Dad, you’re back! I got the Quinns to invest in our family!” she rambled. “Now that we’re under the protection of the Quinns, even the Murrays can’t do anything to us! I’m our family’s savior, Dad! How are you planning to reward-”
Before Alice could finish her smug speech, Frank slapped her heavily across the face. “You still have the nerve to claim yourself as our savior? You’re no savior, you’re a jinx! Our family is doomed because of you! I should’ve strangled you to death as a baby!”
“Ah…” Alice was disoriented by the slap, but she pushed through the pain.
“What’s wrong, Dad?” she asked quickly, “Haven’t the Quinns invested in us? Why did you hit me…”
Frank looked at her with hatred in his eyes. “The Quinns did indeed invest in us, but KW Corporation stepped in. They mentioned you by name, making it clear that you offended someone you never should have offended!”
KW Corporation was one of the top four global financial conglomerates. They even had the top global organization Shadow Alliance backing them! NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
The Quinns would never choose to get on the Shadow Alliance’s bad side just for the Robertsons‘ sake! The Robertson family was doomed, completely doomed!
