Chapter 114 Alice’s Astoundment

• The crisis came and went swiftly. The fact that the three families worked together sent out a signal to everyone, but not even the bigger families knew about the truth behind their temporary alliance. Since the three families weren't going to spill, they didn’t pry any further either.
• On the other hand, Lucius dragged the bodies back to his station. He talked with his superior, but since they had no evidence, he had to close the case. Even though he didn’t know what the truth was, Lucius was already looking into the kidnappers’ background personally.
• At the moment, Evan was the only one privy to the truth, but he played dumb. After he came back to the residence, he quickly assembled his servants and made an announcement about the case. Eventually, his servants realized what he was getting at, and they promised they’d keep Terry’s visit a secret.
