Alice did not dare to do anything bad to the children because she did not want to make the same mistake Aura had and expose herself. Besides, she did not know if Joshua trusted her yet.
How dare Yvonne try to kidnap the two children!
“What are you afraid of?“ Yvonne pursed her lips. “ The people I hired are all from Sea City. They’re not locals, and the number I used to contact them is an encrypted one. It’s impossible for anyone to track me down. Besides, I didn’t even order for them to be killed, all Smith did was give them a little beating.“
“Hailey, why are you so cowardly, now that you’ve become Alice Gibson?“
Alice took in a deep breath. She was not cowardly; she was just being cautious!
“Get rid of everything you used to communicate with them and get out of there immediately! Go back to Sea City. “Alice gripped the phone tightly. “Get out of there right this instant! “
Yvonne had been spoiled by Mr. Walter since young, and she did not know the danger of the situation she was in. The Walters were a distinguished and well- respected family in Sea City, but this was not Sea City. Joshua Lynch’s power in Banyan City was not to be underestimated!
On the other end of the line, Yvonne pursed her lips again. “Alice, why are you so worried? Nothing’s going to happen…“Before she could finish, someone
knocked on her door frantically. “Sorry, Alice, I have to go now. Someone’s here.“
Yvonne put down the phone and went to open the door. She forgot to press the disconnect button, and so Alice could clearly hear everything that was going on from her side.
Alice could hear Yvonne exclaim in shock, “Joshua… Joshua Lynch? What are you doing here?“
The door was slammed shut. After a long pause, Joshua’s voice rang out, “Why do you think I’m here, Miss Walter?“
