CHAPTER 151"But Amanda..." Noel hesitated, remembering the unresolved thread in their theory."Amanda's disappearance complicates things," Nicholas admitted. "Her past story with Alicia might make her a potential player in this mess. But Amanda is long gone, let's leave her behind for a moment. She'll be seen if she's really involved."As the pieces of the puzzle began to fit, Nicholas stood up, a flash of determination visible in his eyes. "We're going to track down Ace and uncover the truth behind these interconnected tragedies. That's the only way to end this sinister tale."Noel and Hendrick exchanged determined glances, ready to dive into the web of events that had unfolded over the years, all connected by a common thread that led to Alicia."Speaking of which... I got some news, Chief," Hendrick said, cutting in hesitantly. "I heard that... Wilson Blake has recovered from his coma. I heard the news yesterday from an informant. And my informant linked it to the capture of the CC

CHAPTER 152"Did you like the omelet I made?"Nicholas chewed the remaining food in his mouth, then nodded. All of Alicia's dishes were delicious and Nicholas agreed to express this to Alicia. "It's delicious. Your food is always good. Did you fry the onions?""Yes, I did a little experiment. I hope you like it.""It's delicious, believe me," Nicholas said, nodding his head.They finished their breakfast in just a few minutes. Nicholas had been staying with Alicia for the past few days, for her safety. Alicia was still waiting for the inheritance from her parents, so she felt the need to earn money until it was given to her.Alicia knew that Michelle and Edward cared about her because they were related to her previous foster parents. Alicia had heard that they were old friends in the past, there was an unpaid debt and they returned the favor by adopting Alicia. So all events involving Alicia's parents would always be related to Alicia."Last night... weren't you worried?"Alicia blink

CHAPTER 153"Look, Ace killed your schoolmates because he failed to kill you, that's according to Ace and that statement was taken as his testimony in the Golden High School serial murder trial, then the campus murders, the people he killed... it was all related to his family. The people who failed or tried to destroy his family, he'd kill."Alicia tilted her head and folded her arms across her chest. "What are you trying to say, Nick?""It means Ace kills with purpose, he has a goal. He doesn't kill outright like all the psychopaths out there. He just kills for the sake of it, but the masked man who shot me in the woods, he's very aggressive and without calculation. They are two different people.""Are you starting to find a common thread?""I believe they are two different people." Nicholas raised his finger, forming a V in the air. "These two different people worked together.""Are they men?""Of course. He is definitely a man. He broke into the prison to help Ace escape, but he mu

CHAPTER 154Nicholas ended the cold war by leaving the dining room. He left the empty plates and glasses behind, while pulling his long brown coat over his arm. Nicholas ran his fingers through his front hair, before looking at Alicia and saying, "I meant what I said. I won't let you be involved in someone else's death again. Understand?"But Alicia did not respond in any meaningful way. She remained silent and turned her face the other way, while rubbing her own arm lightly.A sigh could be heard from Nicholas, he could go no further than this and chose to leave Alicia's flat. Alicia watched Nicholas leave with mixed feelings. She was angry, sad, disappointed, anxious, all gathered into one uncomfortable feeling inside Alicia's chest.Alicia exhaled, before finally pulling on her furry hoodie and going to work at Uncle Chuck's shop. It was her first day working as a part-time waitress at the ice cream shop and Alicia didn't want to disappoint Uncle Chuck who had been so kind to her.

CHAPTER 155Alicia stared at the woman for a long time. Maybe a minute or two of silence. And Alicia could no longer hold back her smile. Ethan who was standing next to Alicia also glanced at Alicia awkwardly, he seemed to be saying what-the-woman-was-doing-to Alicia. And that situation, made Alicia clear her throat, "Excuse me, ma'am. You are our first buyer. Is there anything you need?" Ethan smiled along with Alicia, but he didn't say anything. "We have ice cream, hot drinks and bread. You might be interested in-""Caramel ice," cut in the woman in the red dress.Her face was partially covered by the red fedora hat she was wearing, but Alicia could clearly see how the woman in front of her grinned after cutting off Alicia's words. Alicia looked very awkward. It was her first day at work and she had already met a 'strange' customer in their first hour. Alicia and Ethan exchanged confused glances, before Alicia finally continued with a small smile. "Okay. One caramel ice cream. Anyth

CHAPTER 156Alicia pursed her lips. Her hands rested on her hips, her body beginning to feel the uncomfortable vibrations of the woman in front of her."I'm Angela Vashylchenko, you've probably never heard my name before," said the woman."What... did you organize all this?" asked Alicia nervously.Alicia's eyes looked straight ahead, at Angela who was now grinning slyly. She looked like a movie antagonist, her face stern with bold makeup and bright red lipstick. She had completely stolen the spotlight. Alicia also noticed Angela's expensive clothes. She was indeed a high-class woman, and wanted to show off her strong character to Alicia."I can't answer you," Angela replied casually, as if she didn't care about Alicia. "I didn't come to answer you. I came to check if Ace visited you. He's very obsessed with you."Alicia clenched her hands under the table. Her teeth hardened as she heard Angela talk down to her. She held back her emotions as she remembered Lily being one of the victim

CHAPTER 157Nicholas parked his car with other cars in the hospital parking lot. Golden Hospital was one of the famous hospitals in New York City. It had two different buildings. Where one building consisted of ten floors. This hospital was the place where Wilson Blake was treated, but it was a different building from the one that Nicholas was currently in.In his hurried pace, Nicholas still had time to check his cell phone from inside his long pants pocket. There were no incoming messages from Alicia, even though he was waiting for her. But Nicholas tried to push away the bad thoughts about Alicia and chose to focus on his current work. He passed through the crowded corridors of the hospital. On the first and second floors, Nicholas would find outpatients, while the floors above, were used to treat patients who had to stay overnight or undergo hospitalization. It was a well-equipped hospital and they contributed to the government, giving the hospital credibility.Golden Hospital was

CHAPTER 158After finishing helping Ethan at the cash register, the counter was finally less busy. Uncle Chuck was still busy making hot drinks in the kitchen, but Alicia couldn't help because Uncle Chuck wanted to take care of all the recipes himself.Finally, Alicia walked over to the empty tables to clean them up. She was already carrying a tray, ready to put the cups left behind by the customers and wash them, but then she stopped when she realized that Angela's used cup was in front of her. Alicia's eyes rounded upon realizing that the stainless straw that had been in Angela's glass was gone. The woman had taken it with her. Alicia examined the glass, perhaps there were fingerprints or traces of Angela's sweat that she could bring to Nicholas. However, Alicia had just remembered that Angela had used gloves to cover her fingerprints.Alicia sighed in annoyance. "Damn! That woman did come up with a plan!"Unable to do anything, Alicia could only carry the glasses on the table in su

CHAPTER 159Ace sat in front of a long table with a young girl sitting opposite him. It was a long table for two people only. The girl in front of Ace raised her wine glass in the air, then grinned and said, "Shouldn't we make a toast to celebrate our reunion?""I didn't come all the way here to have a reunion with you," Ace denied, but he still took the glass of wine in front of him and gulped it down without a toast. "I need you to do something for me, Amanda."Amanda took a small sip of the wine in her glass, just to wet her lips before she finally went back to talking to Ace. "You asked Selena to come to me, carrying a message that I heard was from Ace. Well, I was impressed to hear that you sought me out for help. But unfortunately, you're not being very friendly. Can't you relax a little and enjoy the meal I've prepared? I even prepared a suckling goat to welcome you here. This is my new palace, don't you want to give me some appreciation?"Ace took a deep breath, then exhaled q

CHAPTER 160"I'll end our conversation here."Ace got up from the chair, he was about to leave when finally Amanda tried to hold him back in a really tense atmosphere."Give me my money today," Amanda said to the point, she wanted the deal to go through as it should. Ace turned around, she looked at Amanda coldly. "You can use my house, it's close to the forest. I haven't gone there in a long time, I left it. And, the police won't come there anymore.""How do you know?"Amanda shrugged, then took out the photos she had and placed them on the table. "Alicia and the policeman already came there to check. They didn't find anything. And I heard they were going to leave me alone so they could focus on finding you."Ace frowned curiously. He didn't know when Amanda's crimes had grown to this extent. His strong hands grabbed the photos Amanda had placed on the table, and he looked at them. They were photos from the CCTV camera video footage. The picture quality was not very good, but Ace cou
