My Supermodel Wife (For Sale!)

Chapter 757 - Alice's Troubles



Outside the guest room, the Widjaya family's bodyguards were keeping a close watch.

Inside, Jack was already bedridden with difficulty.

James sat on the corner of the bed, and without the distraction of complicated matters, he carefully observed Jack's current situation.

Right now, his brother whom he was most proud of had become an incomplete and miserable human being.

On the way here, he saw his brother's back wobbling and his steps wobbling.

At this moment, he was lying on his back, although he tried his best to endure it, it was still not hard to see the pain.

"Jack, the doctor will be here soon!"

James couldn't bear to look at him again. No one could imagine how miserable Jack must have been after he managed to survive the plane crash..

Jack coughed and struggled to speak in a low voice. "Brother, I'm sorry..."

He apologized repeatedly, and his cheek muscles twitched several times due to his emotions.

James shook his head and clasped his hands. "Don't apologize, you didn't do anything wrong, don't ever do it! For now, you shouldn't think about it because it's all over. Drink some water, and once the doctor comes, everything will be fine."

Jack pursed the corners of his mouth, but it was hard to say a word.

At this moment, Alice took a step forward, bit the corner of her mouth and said haltingly. "Josh, let Jack lie on his side, his spine is very arched, and he shouldn't lie down in this position again!"

Upon hearing Alice's words, James caught his breath.

He pressed the corners of his lips tightly, helping Jack change his position without saying a word.

What had happened to his little brother?!

At this moment, Lilia was standing beside Jean. They weren't far from the bed. At such a close distance, there was no way to help Jack share a bit of his pain.

She couldn't help it, so she turned her gaze to Jean's face. From the Ricardo family's private room all the way back to the guest room, Lilia remained silent.

But she knew very well that out of all these people, she was the one who couldn't calm down the most.

Chris, Alan and the others weren't close enough to the bed but right now, their eyes also met, and they were speechless.

Jack's appearance cast a thick fog on each of them.

At this time, outside the door of the living room, Doctor Lucas hastily appeared carrying a medicine box and several medical staff.

They had been on standby near the hotel and immediately rushed after receiving the notification.

The Ricardo Family's Hundred Years Banquet today was truly not peaceful.

Doctor Lucas saw Chris and the others and was about to greet them, but a call came from the direction of the bedroom. "Enter!"

He didn't dare to delay, and after nodding to the people in the living room, he quickly entered the bedroom.

The first time he saw Jack, his heart jumped.

Who's this?

His appearance was too scary!

Doctor Lucas was dumbfounded for a moment, but then he quickly walked to the bedside. "Sir, Madam, Young Master, how is the situation?"

"You should check him, especially his throat. If there's a painkiller, give him one first!"

"Understood!"

Doctor Lucas answered, put down the medicine box and started preparing for the examination.

However, Jack suddenly waved his hand. "Brother, you have to go out first."

"Jack, it's okay, we will accompany you!"

Jack shook his head, still adamant. "Come out for a minute..."

He didn't want them to see any trace of terrifying horror, which would add to the sadness.

Doctor Lucas put on his gloves for a while, seeing Jack's terrible appearance, his expression was very dumbfounded.

Older brother?

He called the patriarch brother?!

When he came to the Widjaya family's house, he had heard that the second child and parents had died in a plane crash!

This... is he the second son of the Widjaya family?!

Doctor Lucas just stood by the bed while continuing to look at Jack, after which James sighed softly, nodding his head. "Alright, let's go. You don't have to worry, he is our family's best doctor!"

Jack nodded, and after seeing his family leave, he coughed sharply.

...

As the door closed, everyone heard the coughing sound.

James raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, gritted his teeth and whispered, "Don't bother going in, I'm going out for some fresh air." 

When those words finished, James walked out of the living room with a hint of rage.

Irene looked at his back and stopped talking.

Chris got up at the right time and got out of the way. "Sister, sit down and rest, Doctor Lucas is good at his job. I hope he will report the result soon!"

Irene nodded, and when she sat down, she saw Alice who had stopped near the door.

"Miss Alice, come and sit too!"

Alice smiled at her. "Sister, you're too much, just call me Alice."

She walked slowly to Irene's side in a very polite manner.

Irene took her hand, and after careful consideration, she hesitantly asked, "Have you two known each other long?"

This question caused everyone to look at Alice.

Including Jean who remained silent all this time.

Right now, he was standing not far from the bedroom, accompanied by Lilia.

Seconds later, Jack coughed non-stop.

His handsome face became even more tense, and there was no glint in his eyes.

Alice looked around and nodded slightly. "We've known each other for years. Jack came to my backyard when I was a teenager! He has lived in Parma for many years, otherwise..."

Speaking of this, Alice glanced at Jean faintly, showing her enthusiasm. "If it weren't for him looking for my friend named Vincent to treat his throat a while ago, actually... I didn't know that he was Jean's second brother at first."

Lilia caught the important news and was shocked. "Jack told you long ago?"

Alice bit the corner of her mouth and nodded nonchalantly. "But it hasn't been that long. He told me while he was treating his throat. Because of this, I went to accompany him back to this country."

"But…" Lilia hesitated whether to express her doubts.

Alice seemed to understand what she meant. She sniffed, looked at her and looked at Irena, then said boredly. "Jack won't let me tell you. He said he wasn't sure what would happen, so I planned to prepare first. I also know that Jean has been sending people to watch over me all along, and Jack knows this too. So... he had to disguise himself as the cleaning staff at the hotel, avoiding all eyes that could report his existence to Jean. During the trip here, he was hiding in the trunk..."

Alice's tone was weak, she felt a little guilty, but Jack always insisted on begging her to help him fulfill his wish.

Especially, when she found out that the other party turned out to be Jean's second brother… It was pretty hard for her to explain all this.

For a moment, she was even willing to help Jack accomplish all the things he wanted to do.

Not only because she and Jack lived together in Parma these years, but also because of Jean.

The missing second brother was actually by his side all this time.

If these two brothers met, she thought that Jean would be happy.

But at this moment, Alice suddenly felt that she had done something wrong.

Because she did not see the joy on the faces of the Widjaya family, but sadness instead!

After speaking, Alice looked like she had done something wrong, her head was lowered as if in contemplation.

Irene's eyes then turned red and she burst into tears right after.
