Chapter 288

Alice watched Chloe’s anxious expression.“Givethe phone.”

“No, we can’t call the police.” Chloe turned to Ethan, pleading, “Big brother, | don’t understand these things. The

supplier said kickbacks were normal, but | didn’t expect expired goods.”

Ethan slapped Chloe.“You disappoint me! You took kickbacks? When has the Land family ever wronged you?” He

was furious. How could he face Alice now?

Even after the slap, Chloe cried, “Big brother, | was momentarily blinded by greed and tricked by the supplier.

I'm truly sorry.”

“Now you're sorry? When you took the kickbacks, did you think about the consequences?” Ethan was

exasperated. “Chloe, you're increasingly troublesome.”

“Big brother, I truly know | was wrong. Please helpthis once.” Chloe hadn't expected the supplier to send

expired napkins. She hadn't anticipated Alice's swift action; she hadn't had tto destroy the evidence.

Ethan pushed Chloe away.“Alice is in charge of the foundation now. You should be asking her, not me.” He

couldn’t control the situation anymore; Alice had the evidence.

Alice looked at Chloe, her tone cold.“Givethe phone.”

Chloe gritted her teeth.“Alice, please forgive me. We grew up together. If | get in trouble, it'll ruin my reputation.

I'll give you the funds; | won't touch them anymore.”

“No!” Alice snatched her phone back. She would get the funds back, but she needed to continue pressuring

Chloe.

Chloe looked at Ethan.“Big brother, I'm not your real daughter, am 1? That's why one mistake is unforgivable?”

Ethan was taken aback.“Chloe, what do you mean?”

Chloe ran out of the office, crying. Ethan, angry, tugged at his tie. Chloe had dared to say him?

Alice scoffed.“Well, then I'll call the police.”

“Alice, do we really need to make a big deal out of this?”

“Not calling the police means everyone will think the Land family embezzled charity funds and bought expired

goods.”

Alice turned and left. She knew Chloe would seek help since Ethan hadn't helped.

Alice called Mandy, her PR contact.“Keep an eye on Chloe and the supplier. People behind Chloe will act.” This

wouldn't be solved by simple intimidation.

“Ms. Alice, please be careful. They might try to shift the blto you.” “Good point.” Alice decided to stay at the

Land mansion for the next few days.

She returned to her dorm to pack. She told Lana Parker, “I won't be staying in the dorm for the next few days.

I'm going back to the Land mansion.”

Lana Parker was furious.“Wow, that white lotus Chloe is outrageous! She took kickbacks, bought expired goods,

call the police! He made you clean up the mess!”

“| already called the police.”

“Good! Otherwise, your brother would protect Chloe and blyou. We need to arrest that little bitch!”

Alice left after packing. She wondered how the Chen family would react to the truth and whether they'd allow

Ethan to protect Chloe.

That evening, Alice returned to the Land mansion. The new butler was attentive. Chloe, seeing this, angrily told

the butler, “Where's the fruit platter | asked for?” “Sorry, Miss Chloe, | was busy attending to Miss Alice. I'll get it

for you right away.” The butler, after talking to the staff, knew about the previous butler. He was attentive to

Alice, as she was related by blood. Chloe’s favor wouldn't compare.

Chloe slapped him.“You dare look down on me?”

The butler didn’t respond and went to the kitchen.

Alice knew Chloe was venting on the butler. She said coldly, “Instead of making trouble, think about explaining

the kickbacks to the police.”

Chloe was furious. Her father said he would handle it; she just needed to be patient, admit her mistakes to

Ethan, and play the victim.

“If you hadn't taken kickbacks, who would trick you? You're greedy and stupid! Learn from Alice; she gained Mrs.

Wilson's favor and spoke up for our foundation!” Ethan had learned that Mrs. Wilson spoke up for the Land family

because of Alice.

Chloe lost her composure. “It’s because she’s a Land, and I'm a chauffeur’s daughter. Those wealthy women

wouldn't look at me.” She was wronged; she had tried her best. Ethan's face was pale. He looked at Alice.“The

foundation's reputation is okay thanks to the Chen family and Mrs. Wilson. We'll issue a statement saying

A man in a wheelchair entered, saying coldly, “Chloe, stand up. You don’t need to beg them.”
