CHAPTER 221 "I... I can assure you that this project will succeed. The profits are great, and I have an influential partner," Angela replied, her tone wavering slightly. The Fixer chuckled, a low, mocking sound that echoed in the room. "Guarantees, my dear, are as good as the paper they're written on. I deal in guarantees, not promises." Angela, sensing an urgency to get The Fixer's help, dug deeper into his offer. "I can give you a guarantee, an asset that you can seize if the project doesn't go according to plan. You'll have something tangible, ensuring your compensation remains in place." The Troubleshooter raised his eyebrows, intrigued by the offer. "Collateral, you say? Show me what you have in mind." The Fixer's question hangs in the air, overshadowing Angela's impromptu offer. Angela, momentarily caught off guard, gathered her thoughts, realizing that she was negotiating with a wily and unpredictable adversary. "I assure you, The Fixer, my project is straightforward. I ha

CHAPTER 222 "Is there anything I can do to improve your mood, ma'am?" But Angela wasn't in the mood to talk, so she took a deep breath and started to speak. "I'm not in the mood to talk about it. I'm in a really bad mood!" Holding out a piece of paper, she said to her personal driver. "Go to that address right now. I need to find the owner of the boutique before he leaves. He is my only hope of finding Ace." The man sitting behind the wheel accepted the paper and nodded obediently. "Yes, ma'am." And with full courage, the man who had worked for Angela for a long time immediately went to the address written there. He knew Mrs. Vashylchenko was in a bad mood and the work had to be really good to make her boss happy. The happier Angela was, the more money the personal driver would receive. Arriving at the boutique, Angela found it closed. Their doors were shut tight and the lights in the store were not on. While scanning the surroundings, Angela also adjusted her glasses. "Why is t

CHAPTER 223Nicholas, Alicia and Brittany got out of Nicholas' car when they arrived at Brittany's house. The modern-style house, painted in light brown and white, greeted their eyes and made Brittany's heart race. The closer they walked, the more irregular Brittany's heartbeat became. They stopped when they reached the door.Brittany looked at her two friends in turn, and she took a deep breath before finally knocking on the door.Knock! Knock! Knock!It wasn't long until Sophia appeared at the door. A confused look on her face, she found Brittany, Alicia and Nicholas all turning to look at her."Britt? Are you home?" Sophia opened the door, she smiled for Brittany's two friends who stood in front of her. "Ah, there's Nicholas and Alicia. Please come in."The three of them entered the house nervously. Especially Brittany, she kept chanting as her body sat on the sofa with Sophia. Sophia called Paul, the two of them had just returned from Paris. It was a short vacation as well as a fa

CHAPTER 224Sophia smiled in the midst of her concern. "We are a family, and families are always united in joy and sorrow. We will help you build a future filled with love and security for your baby."Paul, though still stern, showed a glimpse of compassion. "We will protect you, Brittany. And this baby will know nothing but love and security."As they faced the challenges ahead, the family forged a bond that was stronger than ever. They decided to consult with the authorities to ensure Kevin could not harm Brittany or the baby she was carrying.

CHAPTER 225Alicia and Brittany hugged for a long time at the door. And after a while, Brittany stretched the distance between their bodies. Brittany wiped away the tears that were rolling down her cheeks. She was truly moved by everything that had happened that day."I'm grateful to you both. I didn't expect Mom and Dad to be mad at me. I can see they're disappointed, but they didn't ignore me and that's more than enough."Alicia lifted the corners of her lips that were polished with pink lipstick, it was a very thin lipstick. She grasped Brittany's hand, then let out a sigh of relief. "You're lucky to have parents who support you in this situation. I wish you and your baby good health. But most importantly, you need to protect yourself from Kevin.""Alicia is right. Maybe I'll send a policeman to guard your house for the next few days. Would you feel safe with that?"Brittany smiled and nodded in agreement. "That would be more than enough. Keeping Kevin away from me and the baby wil

CHAPTER 226Alicia couldn't give an answer when Nicholas suddenly asked. She felt awkward because she had said a word that she shouldn't have said in front of Nicholas. But talking about marriage shouldn't be this complicated either. Alicia looked at Nicholas, stared at the man who was currently her lover and muttered something long."We need a lot of things for marriage. And I don't think marriage should be a prerequisite for entering and managing a company." Alicia looked at Felix who was also looking at her curiously. "These are two different things, aren't they?"Felix smiled a little. He looked at Alicia with admiration. "I like the way you see the world. But alas, this is business. Business is business. There are many people who would like to sit in your shoes, but Madame Michelle has put you in that position without you having to work hard, and you shouldn't waste it." The forty-year-old man took out a folder from inside his tote bag, he placed the folder on the table and showe

CHAPTER 227"I need time to think," Alicia finally admitted, her eyes flickering between Nicholas and Felix. "This is something I need to think about very carefully, and I want to make the right decision for everyone involved."Felix agreed and nodded understandingly, his gaze showing unwavering support. "Take all the time you need. We're here for you, no matter what. This company is also part of your future family. Just like Michelle said, you are a part of all of this."Felix leaned forward, his tone softening. "Alicia, you are not alone on this journey. Madame Michelle's choices may be mysterious, but her intention is to create something lasting and impactful. It's not just about business; it's about the lives we can touch and the positive changes we can make together."Alicia appreciated the reassurance, but unresolved emotions still remained. "I will meet with Christine before the official handover. It's only fair to understand who will be taking my place for the time being."Fel

CHAPTER 228"Can we talk about us later, once I have a clearer picture?"Nicholas nodded, respecting Alicia's need for space. "Of course, Alicia. Take the time you need. I'll be here, whatever you decide. You know, I always support you in any situation. You can call me whenever you need me."Halfway through the trip, Nicholas suddenly thought of Alicia's favorite snack. Caramel ice cream from Uncle Chuck's shop. The man turned the steering wheel, not immediately returning to his house, but turning to Alicia's favorite ice cream shop. Alicia, who was looking out the window, noticed Nicholas' change of direction. She turned around and raised her eyebrows."You didn't intend to ask me to go somewhere, did you?""Tsk, you're really good at guessing things. That high intuition of yours really still works well," Nicholas complimented, Alicia smiling proudly at the small compliment. Nicholas mumbled, then threw a riddle. "Can you guess where we're going now?""I don't know, you are someone w

CHAPTER 229Alicia took a sip of the caramel ice in her glass, contemplating the gravity of the situation. "Nick, Angela isn't just Ace's mom. She and my parents are connected in ways I'm still trying to figure out. Ace's disappearance and my parents' murders may be connected, and Angela seems to have the missing pieces."Nicholas looked at the chocolate before him without interest. His appetite for a good time was gone in an instant. He looked around. His face looked serious, he was thinking about things. And Alicia was quite aware of that and allowed the son of Emma and Alan to take his own time.There was silence for a while, before Nicholas spoke up again. "If Angela is involved in this case, it means that everything related to Ace is probably related to her presence.""Are you going to investigate?""The police team checked on Wilson Blake before he fell into a coma and was hospitalized, I heard that Mr. Blake and Mrs. VashylChenko's romantic relationship didn't work out. They se

CHAPTER 230"I think the Ace family has secrets that we really don't know about, other than the business, politics and family issues that are all clearly exposed in the media."Alicia bit her lip, trying to contemplate Nicholas' words. Little did the girl know that not only had she fallen in love with Ace, but Alicia had fallen in love with a real danger. Ace was a real danger, and he was standing in front of her eyes. Alicia truly regrets her decision to love Ace in the past.She shouldn't have gotten caught up and not fallen in love with Ace. If time could be turned back, Alicia would definitely choose to live her own life without enjoying her encounter with Ace."Hey, Alicia, why are you daydreaming?"Nicholas' voice broke through Alicia's tangled thoughts. Noises began to fill her head as she regretted her past mistakes too much. Alicia tried to smile, then she stirred the half-eaten caramel ice awkwardly. "I'm sorry, I think too much when I'm with you.""I don't like it when you
