Chapter 39 Alice watched as Jack pulled out his phone and stepped aside to make a call . She hid in safety corridor , making sure Noah wouldnt spot her here . When Jack finished his call and approached her , he looked down at her from above . His expression was calm , but his tone was particularly cocky : Lets go . Share to ? To watch a show . Alice followed him into the elevator , heading straight to the third floor . The decor up here was completely different from downstairs . She stole a glance at the man beside her , having heard that the third floor of this restaurant required a certain membership level to access . No one in New York likely had that level of membership . Jack had entered easily , and the staff were deferential . Alice whispered , I heard only high level members . heard only high level members can access the third floor . Yes , I know . Alice looked at his profile ; was he deliberately avoiding her question ? Of course , she knew that too . But what she wanted to ask was how he could just waltz up to the third floor ! As she was lost in thought , Jack suddenly stopped , and she bumped into his back . He turned his head , a first , Ill explain later . teasing glint in his eyes : Watch the show first , But then he turned and walked away . Alice called out , Where are you going ? Restroom . She glanced at the restroom not far away ; that guy just took the elevator down . Where was h headed ? Alice then realized they were standing in a corridor that had a clear view of the private room on the second floor . Something felt off , but she saw Jack stepping out of the elevator . The private room door opened , and Noah , along with Chloe , walked out , accompanied by a staff member who was saying something , Noah looked unhappy , and they headed for the elevator .

Chloe which meant a big shot was coming . Impossible ! Isnt this restaurant members only ? How did a school doctor get in ? It must be that Alice brought him in ! A handsome doctor was still just a doctor . Jacks tone was impatient . Take her out . Suddenly , two staff members appeared , heading straight for Chloe , who quickly hid behind Noah . Noah , Im scared . Noah stepped forward . What do you mean ? Literally . Shes too noisy . I want to talk to you , Jack said coldly , his tone brooking no argument . Noah noticed the restaurant was empty . Was it because of this doctor ? Last time , when Alice was taken away by this school doctor , he used the Welch familys connections but couldnt find her . He had secretly investigated this school doctor but found nothing about him . This Jack was a mystery ; he didnt know if he was intentionally getting close to Alice . It seemed unlikely .

And you , an unknown school doctor , what do y Jack was cold and sharp . Thats none of your business . Shes my sister ; why shouldnt I care ? Noah recalled this man had called the police , forcing Luke to move out and stay away from Alice . Jack had one hand in his pocket , his expression haughty : Take care of your fake sister and keep your false kindness to yourself . After he spoke , the elevator doors opened , and a middle aged man stepped out . Noah said . hastily , Manager , this man is suspicious . He wanted to learn learn Jacks identity . The manager was deferential to Jack . He addressed Noah , Mr. Welch , the restaurant is closed . Please leave . Noah looked at Jack . What about him ? Mr. Welch , this way . The manager didnt answer . Noah was escorted to the elevator , seeing Jacks tall , arrogant figure . His silhouette was tall , hist slightly bowing his head , clearly indicating that this school doctor , Jack , was not of ordinary background . Noah suddenly thought of Alice . When did she get to know these people ? He recalled Alices departing figure and her changes lately ; could it be that this man gave her the courage to stand up against the family ?
