A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 947 A Silent Exchange

Essie asked the bodyguards to send Holy back first. She wanted to have a private talk with Alice.

"Last time I asked you to go to Qin group and steal the DH cooperation plan. How is it going?" she looked at her and asked.

After a short pause, her eyes flickered as she said, "I haven't had a chance yet." She explained.

"You're not Cherry. Who are you?" Essie asked seriously. She didn't ask Cherry to steal the cooperation plan at all. She was just testing it.

Her answer showed that she was not Cherry at all.

"Is not my English name Cherry? Mommy name it for me." A smile appeared on her face.

"I mean another Cherry..." Essie paused again, and a look of disbelief slowly rose on her face.

"Do you remember that you broke my Barbie doll when I was five years old? You said you would compensate me, but you didn't," she said.

"It's not a Barbie doll. It's a Thomas Tilt and Go," said Alice.

Tears welled up in Essie's eyes. "Have you come back? You're finally back!"

"Cathy..." Alice reached out her hand and wiped away the tears on her face.

"Sister -" Essie hugged her excitedly. She knew her sister was still alive, and she knew she wouldn't die.

Retina was stunned. She had been looking at Cherry all the time. She didn't notice when the fake had been replaced with a real one.

"You are the real Alice. What about Cherry?" she asked immediately.

"She's fine. I just locked her up. It's good to keep her as a substitute," said Alice.

"Sister, what happened to you these days? Why haven't you come back for so long? We have been looking for you for a long time. We thought..." asked Essie in a hurry.

"It's a long story. I'll explain it to you later." Alice continued, "Recently, I have been investigating Willi in secret. He is likely to have a close relationship with the Rong family."

"You mean he is an enemy of the Rong family?" Raising her eyebrows, Essie thought, 'They have suspected me like this before.'

"It may be an enemy, or a member of the Rong family," said Alice.

"A member of the Rong family?" Hearing that, Essie was shocked. Was he a descendant who had been expelled from the Rong family and wanted to revenge with resentment?

"If we don't get rid of this person, the Rong family and the Xu family will not be peaceful," said Alice.

"It's a pity that he has been hiding in the dark and doesn't know his true face until today." Essie sighed. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

"He won't be able to hide for long," said Alice coldly.

After a moment's silence, an important thing came to Essie's mind. "Sister, your wedding with Fell will be held soon. What are you going to do?"

Turning her eyes to look out of the window, she said, "I have sworn that I will never marry anyone, but now it seems that it's not a bad choice to marry the Qin family."

Hearing that, Essie was shocked. "Are you really going to marry Fell?"

"I have a substitute. What are you worried about?" A faint smile appeared on her face.

That's right.

Essie breathed a sigh of relief.

Her sister was always independent, much better than her. She believe she can handle it well.

Now that her sister was back, she didn't have to worry too much about the Xu family. With her sister and Mr. Baron in charge, Elizabeth couldn't afford to stir up trouble.

Zac was not as optimistic as her.

He had never expected that Alice would come back so quietly.

This not only ruined his plan, but also helped the Qin family.

"Is she really going to marry Fell?" He frowned slightly.

"I suppose so." Essie nodded.

"Damn it!" Zac cursed, "She can really sacrifice herself."

"Are you worried that my sister's marriage with Fell will pose a threat to the Rong family?" asked Essie.

"Alice is not a simple girl," said Zac seriously.

"In fact, you should have thought about this when you arranged Cherry to marry Fell. My sister could even sacrifice her marriage for the sake of the Xu group. How could she care about replacing Cherry and becoming the real hostess of the Qin family?" said Essie.

It was said, 'Even homer sometimes nods.'

There were two things that Zac had been thinking about the most. One was that there was a slim chance of Alice's survival, and the other was that she had fallen into the hands of Willi. He had never thought that she would suddenly come back.

"She is indeed a woman who can go all out," he said in a low voice.

"Now our biggest enemy is Willi. The most important thing is to deal with Willi. Let's talk about the grudge between us and the Qin family later," said Essie.

Zac didn't answer. 'Two dogs strive for a bone, the third runs away with it.' He had to prevent the Qin family became that 'third dog'.

On the second day, he asked Alice out alone. It happened that Alice was also looking for him.

"You are so powerful that you found Cherry and took her away," said Alice.

"She is my people. Of course I will take her back." Shrugging, Zac thought the fake was still useful.

"Do you still want to replace me with her?" Alice frowned.

"You think too much." Zac sneered. To be honest, he didn't like Alice very much. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been separated from his wife and children for three years, or even almost lost them.

As for Alice, she still remembered his indifference and coercion when she asked him for help.

"It's a good idea to get married to the Qin family. I'm glad that you can help me get married," she sneered.

"I hope you can be happy." A faint smile played at the corners of Zac's mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"Of course I will. To be honest, I always think that Hanson is more suitable for my sister than you. If she is with Hanson, she must be happier than with you," she said that on purpose.

"Marriage is like putting on shoes. Only the wearer know whether he or she is comfortable or not. How can an outsider know, let alone an outsider who doesn't know love?" Zac retorted.

The corners of Alice's mouth twitched. "I will have a good relationship with Fell."

"That's your business, not mine. You have no right to care about my family," Zac said in a cold tone.

"I don't think you want me to marry Fell. It seems that my return has ruined your grand plan," said Alice.

"It doesn't matter. I can make another plan," Zac said indifferently.

"I hope you can control yourself well in your new plan," said Alice.

"It's a woman's duty to take care of her husband and children. Don't do too many men's things," said Zac in a low voice.

"I'm no worse than men," said Alice confidently.

"But you are still a woman after all," Zac sneered. The difference between her and Essie was that she was sharp and not gentle at all.

On the other hand, Essie was a woman of both toughness and gentleness. Only in this way could she advance, attack and defend.

After that, the two didn't talk more and Zac left.

The moon less night sky was dotted with a few sparse cold stars, and the dark clouds made the night even darker.

In a very remote corner of the Rong Mansion, a black figure suddenly flashed and quickly crossed the wall of the courtyard, gently fell to the ground, and quickly hid in the thick shadow of the green belt. Maxim, dressed in black clothes and black trousers, poked his head out of the bushes secretly. His face was covered with a black silk scarf, and most of his face was covered. Only a pair of wolf like eyes were exposed, which reflected light.

He vigilantly began to scan the surrounding environment. The map she found was correct, and he was right about this spot. Sure enough, he didn't see any security guards coming to patrol.

After carefully examining the surrounding environment, he finally determined the direction and began to sneak along the direction of the low bushes, trying not to make any sound.

If his guess was right, the ghost yard should be located there. That bitch didn't slack off. The map she got was accurate and clear.

After he swam through a patch of bushes, there was an open area in front of him. Maxim began to stop and observed carefully.

This section was an open area with dense patrols, so he had to pay attention to it. After passing this key security area, it was easy for him to enter the ghost yard. If the woman's information was correct, no one was arranged to patrol around the ghost yard.

In the past few years, it had been his men who had done this kind of job. He hadn't exercised himself for a long time, hoping that he hadn't forgotten the training in the special forces. He encouraged himself as he observed the surrounding environment. Although he had gained weight in the past few years, he still paid much attention to physical training.

The patrol security team walked back and forth several times, but Maxim didn't move. He hid, silently observing and counting the time.

When another round of security guards passed by, he quickly left the hidden low tree and rushed out in the direction of the ghost yard. Every time he stepped on the ground, the beat of his steps was the same as that of the patrol security guard, and he did not make too much noise. Moreover, every time he stepped on the ground, the spot was neat and tidy, without too obvious obstacles and the faint sound of scratching things.

Before the next group of patrolling security guards arrived, he quickly hid into the shadow of the roadside, or a green tree, or a small flower bush. After jumping for several times, Maxim quickly passed through the open area of the Rong Mansion and approached the ghost yard quickly.

After passing through the last open area, he quickly hid himself in the shadow of green bushes. He stopped and breathed, starting to observe the road ahead carefully.

He began to enter the area of the ghost yard. As the woman said, he didn't meet the patrolling security guards here. Following the low woods, Maxim dived forward quickly. He could see the outer wall of the ghost yard.

Standing at a corner of the outer wall of the ghost yard, he looked around carefully. There was no moonlight, and the night was a little dim. The ghost yard was quiet around. No security guards came to patrol, because uncle Li ordered this area to be temporarily blocked. After all, the fear of the ghost yard had long been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Without ordering the security guards, they wouldn't ask for trouble, let alone take the initiative to run here.

Without much pause and hesitation, Maxim quickly climbed up the wall and slowly slid down the corner. He didn't care about the ghosts talks at all, but he was very careful about the unknown environment. This was also the reason why he chose to slide down the corner of the wall instead of jumping in.
