Chapter 160

Elaina came out of the police station and then called Andrew. “Andrew, help me look for someone’s information.”

Then, she messaged Lucian’s name to Andrew. Although Elaina knew that she couldn’t possibly find any evidence, she still wanted to know why Lucian would work for Alisha. Then Elaina put away her phone and took a taxi to the hospital.

There had been too many things going on recently, so Elaina took a few days off from the hospital.

Now that the matters were almost settled, it was time for Elaina to go back to work.

Regarding Alisha, Elaina believed that Theodore and Saul would settle everything and deal with

Alisha. Elaina believed the Lory family would soon go bankrupt.

Things turned out just as Elaina expected. After what Marcus did to Elaina, Theodore and Saul became even more ruthless towards the Lory family, not giving them any chance to take a break.

For a time, everyone in New York noticed the crisis of the Lory family. Some people even began to fear and cancel their cooperation with the Lory family.

Many followed suit, and soon more and more business opportunities for the Lory family were gone. The Lory family was already exhausted from dealing with Theodore andSaul. Now that they were faced with many clients canceling their cooperation, they wore themselves out, lost several projects in a row, and had a great deficit of over 160 million dollars.

In the Lory’s house, Ernesto was having a headache as their company’s stock price kept

falling.

– “Dad, is the situation really that bad?” Alisha was not stupid. Although she was upset

with Ernesto’s

partiality to Marcus, Alisha did not want the Lory family to go bankrupt.

After all, she wanted to take charge of the Lory family at its glorious time, not when it had

a

tendency to go bankrupt at any time.

“If you only knew!” Ernesto looked up at Alisha with a cold gaze.

The police had already told Ernesto that the murderer was caught. But Ernesto knew

very well that

the murderer was just doing it for the money. And the real plotter was still out there,

proud and

unnoticed.

Of course, Ernesto suspected Elaina and Jalen as well. But meanwhile, Ernesto was

also doubting

Alisha.

Meeting with Ernesto’s cold gaze, Alisha was a little afraid, but she still forced herself to

say, “You

don’t have to worry. I will immediately think of a way to save the company.”

Ernesto interrupted her, “No need to. I have already discussed this with the Stein family.

The day after tomorrow, we will officially send you over. As for the wedding, we can

arrange at another time

when we have the chance later.”

Alisha’s face suddenly turned pale, and her body shook uncontrollably. “Dad, at this time,

why do

you still want me to get married?”

Alisha thought that after Marcus died, she was the only inheritor who would take over the

Lory family eventually. And she wouldn’t have to marry into the Stein family as well.

But Alisha didn’t expect what was coming.

“You know the current situation of our company. We need help from the Stein family.”

Ernesto remained unmoved as he noticed Alisha’s reddened eyes. When he thought that

Alisha might as well be the person behind who plotted to kill Marcus, Ernesto felt hatred

in his heart.

Alisha bit her lips and said unwillingly, “Dad, we can think of other ways. I want to stay

and be by

your side at such a difficult time.”

Alisha pretended to be thoughtful, but in fact, she just did not want to marry into the

Stein family. Once she married, her situation could be worse than the present.

“There’s no need. The business world is for men. Girls like you should get married as

early as possible. It’s better for you to be a housewife.” Ernesto refused Alisha’s offer. He

got annoyed

every time he saw Alisha.

Knowing that she could not persuade Ernesto, Alisha could only change the topic and

said, “Dad, if you really want me to marry someone who can help our family, wouldn’t

Jalen be a better choice?”

* “Jalen? Do you think he will marry you?” Ernesto sneered and looked at Alisha

mockingly.

“You don’t have to worry about that. As long as I can make him marry me, it’s the same

for you anyway,” Alisha replied and was no longer patient.

“Of course, it’s better to marry Jalen,” Ernesto nodded, not caring what Alisha wanted to

do.
