Chapter 236

Author: Sequora
Will's fifth brother, Felix Zeller, looked around and demanded, "Where's Luke and Simon? Why are they nowhere to be seen?! If they can't even take care of Jasper, they can just leave tomorrow!"

Still, Jasper leaned against the headboard and shrugged. "Why is everyone so worried? I'm tough—I'm not dying anytime soon."

However, Quincy remained flustered and whipped out her phone. "No, I'm calling Luke right now. We're getting to the bottom of this!"

Still, Jasper promptly snatched it away, sighing, "That's enough, Mom. You're fussing too much."

Quincy narrowed her eyes and poked him on the head. "You almost died, and you call it fussing?!"

Livid, she wheeled on her husband. "It's high time you talk some sense into him!"

As Renee sat outside for over half an hour, it suddenly occurred to her that everyone inside were Jasper's relatives.

So why was she still waiting here, when they were all in there with Jasper?

With that in mind, she stood up and headed for the elevator.

    Mimi got into the same car as Alison, while Renee returned to her car and left as well, speaking into a walkie along the way, "You can start heading for the junction at Anchor Point. They will be there in fifteen.""Yes, Ms. Whitley.""Roger.""We're coming."At her orders, four cars started toward the junction at Anchor Point on four different routes, arriving punctually at fifteen minutes and quickly receiving Alison at the next camera blind spot.Then, another thirty minutes later, another three cars gathered, with one picking up Alison at yet another blind spot before every car went in different directions.And after changing cars four times, Alison's car finally went on the highway, while Mimi already left her during the third switch.She got into Renee's car and was sent to Harborview City.The Zellers knew Mimi and would definitely start chasing after her too, but Renee didn't make another fake ID for her, instead bringing her over to work at Genome Tech.Renee then hea

    Yvie leaned against the stove counter as she watched Renee. "You're being way too stubborn. Letting Alison go doesn't just make you an enemy of the Zellers—the Xaviers will be out for your blood too. I'm sure you know why people never challenge government officials… If the Xaviers find this escape unacceptable, the Zellers will pay for it too.""I get it—all of it." Renee sighed, shaking her head. "But I don't care. There's only that much I can do, and Alison is all I care about.""So you've made up your mind?""Yeah.""Even if it kills you?""I'd already be dead if not for Allie," Renee retorted bluntly.Seeing how obstinate she was, Yvie lowered her eyes in thought for a moment.Soon, she looked up again and smiled. "Alright. There's nothing I can say to change your mind, anyway, is there? Just come with me."Even before the apple juice was finished, Yvie led Renee away from the kitchen and out of the back door, around the entire manor and toward the front porch.As she watc

    Renee was perplexed. "This was Jasper's plan?"So that was why she ran into Yvie here—Jasper had anticipated this!Suddenly, Renee understood that getting Alison out wasn't that easy, what with the pile of problems that were already hitting them as soon as the plan began.To get her out unimpeded? Who knew how many more barriers they had to jump over."You think?" Yvie snorted, rolling her eyes at Renee. "He's really worried about you."Renee hung her head in thought for a long while, sighing as she looked up at Yvie again. She really was out of options.Taking Yvie's hand, she tried to appeal to Yvie's familial bond with her."I've never asked you for anything ever since I was a child. But can you help me this one time? If you're willing to help me this one time, I will put our past behind us.""Haha!" Yvie laughed despite herself. "If there's anyone to be blamed for what happened, it's your father. Sure, I share some blame, but that's only up to your mother to accuse me. I'

    That was when Quincy called out from the couch again, "Mimi? What's taking so long?"Being called by name, Renee panicked further.But even as she had no idea what to do, she looked up and saw another face dead ahead.It was Yvie… And they were both looking at each other!Shit!Even as alarm bells rang in her mind, Renee had no choice but to brace herself and walk toward Yvie."Ms. Irwin," she greeted Yvie with a slight nod, before adding under her breath, "It's me… It's Renee. I need to go to the kitchen right now."After all, Zeller House was enormous—the drawing room alone must be over a hundred square meters wide, so a hushed whisper would be inaudible from the other end.Still, Yvie narrowed her eyes at Mimi, her brow creasing in turn as she whispered back, "Keep walking down the end of the hallway and turn left. It's the second door."Then, striding past Renee, she headed to the couch and greeted the two women sitting there. "Mrs. Zeller. Mrs. Xavier.""Oh, you're here!

    Alison was skeptical. "You mean, we're fleeing by car? Will this really work?"Renee smiled and assured her about the plan. "Don't worry—the car in which you're driving has fake license plates, with several other cars of similar models escorting it. We will then stop at a camera blind spot to switch cars just to be safe."My makeup artist will slip in with the gardeners soon. She will come to disguise you before we get you out. But I have to go now—your mom usually asks Mimi Lillard to bring you lunch, right? Can't expose myself now."She couldn't drag her feet while she was disguised as the maid named Mimi.Quickly listing all the things to take notice, Renee left, but just as she stepped out, she found Quincy and another woman she had never met sharing an umbrella as they walked through the winter snow.Quincy was smiling as she said, "You might not be aware, Mrs. Xavier, but the clivia in the greenhouse out back is blossoming beautifully. You need to see it later."As they slo

    Renee knocked on the door, and as there was no response from inside, she looked around.Once she made sure there wasn't anyone around, she cleared her throat.She was about to knock again when the bedroom opened from the inside, and Alison stood there in her pajamas, staring at her as she stood outside."It's me," Renee announced herself while quickly sliding in the room through the gap between Alison and the door, closing it while she did."Renee…?" Alison asked uncertainly, hearing the familiar voice but seeing an unfamiliar face."Yeah." Renee nodded, pointing at her own face. "Went out of my way to get a makeup artist."Then, looking Alison from head to toe, she grimaced in pain. "Why are you so skinny?"It had only been a month, but Alison's cheeks were sunken and her skin dull, as if she was suffering from malnutrition.Even her usually dark hair had completely lost its luster."Oh, finally." Alison sobbed as she hugged Renee. "I really don't know what I would do if you
