"You came?"

Seeing that it was Alice who knocked on the door, Ilia held the door with her hand, took a step back, and closed the door after Alice came in.

Alice looked at Ilia for a few seconds, smiled and said, "Ilia, it seems that you haven't been doing well recently. There is no flesh on your face."

"How can my parents believe it otherwise?" Ilia raised her eyebrows, looked at her face in the mirror, touched her cheek, and sighed, "You don't know, sometimes I am very hungry these days, and when I see the food on the table, I want to stuff it all into my stomach, but I can't, I have to endure it and pretend that I have no appetite. I feel very sleepy every night, but I force myself to wake up and not fall asleep, so that I will be very haggard the next day. Although it is very uncomfortable, this is the only way for a patient to look like this."

Alice couldn't help but sigh, "You are too hard on yourself."

In the study, Xie Shu was even more incredulous than Alice in front of the surveillance video.

She never expected that Ilia, who could not stand the slightest hardship since childhood, could go to such lengths to pretend to be sick.

Extraordinary perseverance.

It's a pity that it was used in evil ways.

It seems that Alice already knew that Ilia was faking illness.

Ilia smiled proudly and said, "It's a bit cruel, but it still works. A few days ago, my mother sent Caesar to live somewhere else. I think it won't be long before there is no place for him in the house."

"But, when I came here just now, I saw him sitting and talking with your mother?"

Hearing this, Ilia's expression changed, "Really?"

"of course."

"Maybe he came to get something."

"Not necessarily. I think Aunt Xie is very kind to him."

Ilia pursed her lips, a cold light flashing in her eyes, "Looks like I have to add fuel to the fire."

Alice shook her head calmly. "Ilia, the result so far is already very good. If you continue like this, it will be useless."

"What do you mean?"

"I heard that a new psychiatrist came to your house yesterday? Was it introduced by Caesar?"

"Well," Ilia shrugged casually, "You can't do anything to me. I'm gone."

"Ilia, people's patience is limited. Now your uncle and aunt care about you more and are willing to hurt Caesar for you, but your condition has not improved at all and you will only repeat your fears forever. Gradually, they will feel bored and bothered. Caesar, on the other hand, is sensible and obedient. Even if he was driven out by you, he still found a doctor for you. Over time, they will like Caesar more and think that Caesar did nothing wrong. It is just that you have a poor psychological endurance and are too hypocritical..."

"Impossible! There's no way my mother would think I'm troublesome!"

"Even if she doesn't dislike you, she won't break off her relationship with Caesar. You have to know that Caesar is much better than you in terms of work ability. Your uncle has already trained him as the heir. Unless you can find someone more suitable than him, he will inherit the family power in the future and you will never be his opponent."

Ilia fell silent.

She had to admit that Alice was right about that.

Since this concerns the future development of the family, Dad will not drive Caesar away just because of her "fear".

She couldn't hold her temper and said irritably, "What should I do? It may be difficult to find someone more powerful than him."

Ilia knew that Caesar was very powerful and nothing seemed to be difficult for him. At every banquet, someone would always ask her about Caesar in a roundabout way.

"In addition to Caesar, Noah is also a good choice. He is down-to-earth, serious and dedicated. I heard that several of his recent projects have been successfully completed and have brought great benefits to the company. If Caesar is completely excluded, then uncle will definitely choose Noah."

Noah is the son of Elijah's uncle Albert Wilson and Elijah's cousin.

"Then how can we completely eliminate Caesar?"

"This is not easy. Uncle will never tolerate anyone damaging the family's interests. If Caesar leaks the company's project, even if your uncle protects him, your other uncles and aunts will not allow it." Alice said meaningfully.

"I understand." Ilia's eyes lit up. "I'll get better in a few days. I'll ask Dad to take me to the company."

Seeing this, Xie Shu was so angry that his head was burning with anger.

She knew that Ilia was not smart, but she didn't expect that Ilia would be so stupid!

Because of his own selfish desires, he was instigated with just a few words to leak the company project and put the blame on Caesar!

She never thought that whether this matter succeeded or not, she and Caesar were old Wilson's children, and if this happened, old Wilson would be blamed by other family members!

How could she be so selfish? So stupid?

Couldn't she see that Alice was using her so blatantly?

After saying goodbye to Ilia, Alice prepared to leave.

When she came down from upstairs, she saw Caesar sitting on the spacious sofa, leaning against the back of the sofa with his eyes closed.

Alice didn't intend to disturb him. After all, Caesar had become an abandoned child after marrying Tang Shishi!

When she helps Noah become the next head of the Wilson family, she will still be Mrs. Wilson!

It’s a pity that Tang Shishi didn’t die this time. She was lucky!

Unexpectedly, Yan Huai took the initiative to speak and called her, "Alice."

Alice stopped and smiled at her, "Caesar, what's the matter?"

Yan Huai smiled at her, "What did you say to Ilia?"

Alice's heart jumped to her throat for a moment. Facing those unfathomable eyes, she forced herself to calm down.

"Don't be nervous. I just want to know what you usually talk about with Ilia. Will she relax in front of you? You should also know that she is very afraid of me now. I want her to recover, but I don't know where to start."

Alice's heart slowly settled down after she finished speaking, and she breathed a sigh of relief without leaving a trace. "Actually, we didn't talk about much. I was the one comforting her most of the time..."

"Oh?" Yan Huai stood up and walked towards her, "Are you going back? I'm leaving too, so I'll give you a ride. You can tell me about Ilia's situation."

Alice looked at the handsome man in front of her and suddenly realized that Caesar was abnormal today.

In the past, because Xie Shu had brought them together, Caesar had always been cold to her in order to avoid suspicion. But today, he had talked so much to her and even offered to send her back...

Are you in love with her?

Or is there another purpose?

But no matter what his purpose is, he won't fall out so quickly.

Alice hesitated for a moment and agreed.

……

Due to this accident, the crew stopped working for two days. Tang Shishi was afraid of encountering danger again, so she simply stayed in the hotel.

She slept until dawn, then woke up in a daze, reached for her cell phone on the bedside table, and checked the time.

It's past nine o'clock.

There was a WeChat message from Yan Huai, sent at night, which was afternoon where he was according to the time difference.

Tang Shishi stretched, unlocked the screen, and calmly entered WeChat.

From the contact list, we can see that Yan Huai sent four messages, the last one being: "Are you satisfied with this explanation?"

Tang Shishi raised her eyebrows and clicked on the dialog box, thinking, so fast?

Then, three pictures came into view.

There are three severed fingers placed randomly in the picture, with blood gushing out from the severed parts.
