Avenger's coming back

Chapter 156 Alice’s Mercy

They didn't know what to say. All they could do was to see how she dealt with it. For a moment, the office was quiet.

Alice seemed to be caught in a dilemma. Sometimes she frowned; sometimes her knitted brows became smooth; sometimes she put her hand on her forehead.

Seeing her behavior, Lily felt worried for her. She was still considering what she should do to him since Ken had already betrayed her!

When Lily was about to say something, Alice seemed to have thought it through. A touch of firmness appeared on her face, and then she picked up the telephone at hand and directly dialed.

The phone was soon connected.

"Ken, how's the investigation going?" She tried to make her tone sound as calm as possible.

"Things are getting tricky." Ken said, "The organizers can only determine whether one is a plagiarist during the time of handing in the draft. You know that, after all, the original draft you submitted is a week later than the other. And the police can't find evidence to prove your innocence."

Then she heard his voice on the phone. A sneer curled the corners of her lips, and her eyes fell on the document given to her by Lily.

"Do you mean that I have to be convicted of plagiarism?"

"Mrs. Alice, we can't make a conclusion now. I trust you and I will try my best to find evidence..."

"Ken, come back." She continued in a cold voice, "You have worked so hard these days. You have been busy outside for me. I have something to tell you, but I can't make it clear to you in a short time. Come to my office directly after you go to the company."

After a few simple words, she hang up the phone in dejection. She originally wanted to call him and have a try, but she didn't expect to hear these words.

He was still lying, thinking that he could hide the truth from everyone. The organizers could only be judged according to the sequence of documents submitted, and the police couldn't find any evidence to prove her innocence. It was nonsense!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She leaned back in the chair, frowned and closed her eyes. It seemed that she was unwilling to accept such a fact.

Well, how many people would be willing to accept the fact that the person she had always trusted betrayed her? There were no such kind of saints in the world.

"Aunt, you don't have to be mad." Lily tried to persuade her. "He is a heartless man. If he betrays you and cheats on you, you don't have to feel sad for him."

"You are too young to understand many things." Leaning against the back of the chair, Alice opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling in the office, with resignation in her eyes. "I have always believed in him. Moreover, he is capable and has a high comprehension. He is good at design and knows a lot of things. I really put all my heart on training him, but I didn't expect..."
