Chapter 229
After Alice left Daniel’s ward, she glanced at her kids. Then, she took her phone and went outside to
make a call. She wanted to talk to William about the new contract.
Without Alice around, the atmosphere in the ward changed.
Johnny raised his head and looked at Daniel coldly. “I think your wound is almost healed.”
The implication was that Daniel could consider confessing something openly.
Daniel was a little hesitant. He frowned slightly and said, “Joseph is very close to her.”
Johnny could sense the jealousy in Daniel’s voice. Instead of being angry, Johnny laughed. “Why?”
Johnny said. “Are you afraid that my sister will be taken away? You would only confess after the
situation becomes irreversible?”
“It’s not necessarily a bad idea,” Daniel said.
Johnny said, “Hey! Daniel, you’re really audacious!” Johnny instantly went berserk. He suddenly
jumped off the bed and directed the kids to sit on the sofa.
Then, he looked at Daniel and continued, “You are not comfortable with Joseph. Well, my sister and I
are not comfortable with Vivian! This matter can’t be postponed. You have to tell the truth!”
Daniel did not say anything. Joseph’s appearance made him feel a sense of crisis.
Daniel was afraid that if he were to tell the truth, his wife would get angry and it would give Joseph a
chance to take advantage of the situation.
Actually, Johnny could understand Daniel’s feelings, but he did not agree with Daniel continuing to
deceive Alice.
“Daniel, how many lies have you told to deceive Alice?” Johnny said. “How many people have you
asked to lie for you?”
Daniel continued to remain silent. He himself had not even counted.
However, it was undeniable that almost everyone Daniel knew was helping him cover up the lies.
“A lie requires 500 lies to cover it up,” Johnny said earnestly. “I believe you understand this principle.”
He then continued, “Confess while your lies to her haven’t piled up too many yet. If you were to do that,
she would at least gradually forgive you because of your good qualities. But if you drag it out to the
point where she finds out the truth from others…
“At that point, it won’t be so easy for you to seek her forgiveness.”
Daniel said, “I will personally tell her. I absolutely won’t let her hear about my identity from someone
else.”
However, Johnny smiled and shook his head. “We can choose not to say it, but what about others?” he
said. “What about those who do not treat you with sincerity? Can you guarantee they won’t spill the
beans?”
Daniel looked at Johnny and frowned….
He thought, “Johnny is right. I can manage members of the Kaur family as well as Johnny and others.
But the employees and partners who have seen me, that’s a different story.
“What if one day they unintentionally tell my wife the truth? What should I do then?”
He was not afraid of being attacked by all the people in the entire world, but he was afraid that Alice
would resent him because of his lies.
“It seems that I really need to think about confessing to Alice before Joseph affects our relationship,” he
thought.
The next day, Alice woke up in the apartment.
She had initially planned to stay at the hospital to accompany Daniel, but William and her kids insisted
on staying there. In the end, she was sent home to rest.
She slept well that night. She had no dreams and only woke up at ten o’clock.
She had just finished freshening up and was making breakfast in the kitchen when her phone suddenly
rang.
It was a call from Frankie.
That
guy had been filming overseas and had not contacted her for a while.
“Hey, Frankie,” Alice said in a leisurely tone. “What’s up?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Do you want to read an earth-shattering gossip?” Frankie asked with a smile.

Alice put down the knife and asked, “What earth-shattering gossip?”
“Several photos of the top aristocratic family in Lonrid have been exposed, including Mr. William from
Josh’s company,”
Frankie said.
“And?” Alice said.
“And I think he’s quite handsome,” Frankie said. “He’s also kind of familiar. Take a look and see if you
know him. Let’s continue gossiping.”
