Eugene glanced at him. “Impossible!”
Curtis didn’t know what to say to that.
After Eugene got in his car, he asked, “Where ‘s Aleena?”
“I didn’t check. Do you want me to check now?” Curtis answered.
Eugene closed his eyes to rest and replied lazily with only one word. “Yes.”
Curtis looked at Eugene through the rearview mirror and couldn’t help but ask, “You don’t believe what Robin Hills
said?”
“He should be telling the truth,” Eugene said.
Curtis then asked in surprise after some hesitation, “Then why are you looking for Miss Jones?”
Eugene opened his eyes abruptly. “Do you like her?”
Curtis was shocked immediately. “No way. Why would I like her?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEugene glared at him. “If you don’t like her, then why are you asking so many questions?”
Curtis was rendered speechless.

Aleena had been at home for a full day. She was feeling angry, aggrieved and regretful. These emotions were
flooding in like an endless net, wrapping her up and swallowing her whole.
During this time, both Eric and Kelly wanted to come inside her room to comfort her and wanted her to come out
from her room to eat, but she ignored them.
She was ashamed!
She had tried to drug someone else but ended up drinking the wine she drugged instead. She didn’t even have the
right to get mad that it turned out this way.
She really was dumb.
The first time at the party, she had thought that Olivia had escaped due to sheer luck. This time, not only did Olivia
know she tried to drug her, she even managed to switch their glasses in such a short time. This couldn’t be
described as luck. The girl sure was uncanny.
How did she discover the drink was drugged?
Could it be she smelled the drug? But the drug was said to be colorless and tasteless.
Someone knocked on the door again. “Aleena? Nicole is here to see you.”
Aleena sneered. Just as well. I want to ask her where she went that night.
She got up and opened the door, then immediately saw Nicole with her flawless and elegant makeup, looking very
worried. “Aleena, are you alright?”
Aleena scoffed. Compared with Nicole, her face was worn, she had messy bed hair and her whole body was beat
up. With an emotionless look, she answered, “Come in.”
Kelly was so worried about her daughter that she didn’t even go to work. Seeing that Aleena had finally opened her
door, she wanted to come inside and have a look at her as well, but Aleena closed the door right after Nicole went
in.
Kelly sighed helplessly. Although she wanted to scold Aleena, hit her and blame her for bringing shame to the Jones
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFamily, she couldn’t be too harsh on her.
She was probably the one who was feeling the worst right now.
Inside the room, right after Nicole came inside, Aleena slapped her across her face and questioned angrily, “You
planned it all, didn’t you?”
Nicole held her face, frozen in shock from the slap. She looked at Aleena in disbelief and was a little furious.
“Aleena, what was that for?”
“You’re pretending you don’t know what this is about?” Aleena sneered. “I can’t think as fast as you can, but if I
think slowly, I’ll still understand at the end. Last night, I only hid inside that room because you told me you had gone
inside and nobody was there. However, Ben Roberts ended up being inside that room. What do you have to say
about this?”
Nicole suddenly realized what she meant and explained hurriedly, “Listen, I can explain. I really don’t know how Ben
Roberts got inside that room. I checked that room and he wasn’t there at the time. Didn’t I go looking for you after
that? Maybe he went into the room then. Why didn’t you leave when you discovered he was inside?”
Aleena’s eyes were fixed on Nicole. “When I went into the room, he immediately pounced on me. That means he
knew I was coming. You were the one who led me to that room, and when I asked you to send me home, you
refused. You planned all of this from the beginning, didn’t you?”
