Chapter 164 What Happens When Ethan Loses His Temper (1)

They had checked all of the vehicles, hotels, and residential areas, as well as every single surveillance footage they could get their hands on. However, it was a fact that they had not gone looking for her at every company. After all, who would’ve thought that Alice was in Galerprises and had not left for two entire days? It didn’t make any sense.

Ethan didn’t think too much of it, nor did he have the heart to at the moment. After hearing the news, he immediately jumped to his feet before he got into his car and sped away.

As he had left too hastily, he didn’t even take Caleb with him, leaving him to watch helplessly like an abandoned puppy as Ethan’s car drove into the distance.

On the other hand, Alice had originally planned to head to Royale with Mr. Affleck and go through the motions before leaving as she was just an assistant in the project department at the moment. Besides, Archie had already informed Mr. Affleck beforehand.

Alice knew that Caroline was tender–hearted and sensitive, and she was worried about her, so she planned to rush home to see her.

Bruce stood in her way, squeezing a forced smile on his face as he gazed at her in a way that he assumed was gentle and affectionate. “Alice, are you working at Galerprises now?”

“Yeah.” Alice lowered her head, her eyes as dark as an abyss. She could catch the gist of the reason why Bruce was looking for her.

Bruce must be seeking her out because he saw her with the project manager of Galerprises earlier. As he wanted to bid for the Riverwale project as well, there was a huge possibility that he wanted to find out what was going on at Galerprises.
