221 Ruby’s Ruthless Plot
“Mrs. Nolan, that’s all I know.”
After saying that, he–a grown man–actually dropped to his knees by the door and cried silently.
Who goes out to work if not to support their family ?
If the girl’s incident blew up, he would definitely become the scapegoat .
He might end up spending the rest of his life in prison .
What would happen to his wife ? What about his kids ?
What about his parents ?
Alice’s expression turned icy cold. “Which hospital is that girl in?”
Donovan took a moment to compose himself.
“She’s at St. Anne’s Hospital now, but I don’t know the exact ward.”
Alice immediately sent a message to Jack, and he started checking right away.
Ten minutes later, Jack reported that he had found the person and was already organizing a team of specialists for evaluation.
However, the girl’s emotions were still unstable. She might have a mental illness.
Of course, they had also brought in psychological experts to talk with her.
After reading the message, Alice looked back at Donovan.
“How many people knew about this?”
Donovan let out a sigh.
“Actually, everyone who was working at the time knew.”
“When the hotel changed ownership back then, a lot of employees quit.”
A chill flashed in Alice’s eyes.
Those who quit were probably the witnesses under Ruby’s control.
It didn’t matter that they didn’t know where Ruby had hidden them yet.
Even if they tracked them down, they’re Ruby’s loyal followers. They’d never pass up a chance to gain favor with her.
Plus, Ruby had chosen to hand over the hotel right when people from Jaxon Group arrived.
It was to keep them so busy that they couldn’t discover this.

Oh
Even if they did discover it, it wouldn’t matter.
Because they wouldn’t be able to fix it.
Alice looked up and glanced at Eric.
Ruby’s scheme was truly vicious and ruthless.
No matter how you looked at it, Ruby had the upper hand.
Earlier. Ruby had deliberately mentioned Jaxon Group, probably without any real intention of cooperating with them.
James from Jaxon Group waited at the entrance for reporters, just to associate himself with the Global Hotel and make outsiders believe he was partnering with the Nolan Group.
Heh.
What a schemer.
Eric looked over too.
He hadn’t expected that Alice’s eyes held no anger at all. Instead, they were full of mockery.
“Got a plan?”
Alice didn’t give a definite answer and just replied, “Let’s check on the girl first.”
Eric smiled faintly.
“Alright.”
Donovan had spilled the hotel’s secret, and now he didn’t know what his future held.
“Boss, Mrs. Nolan, what about me?”
Alice’s tone was softer than before.
“I’ll take what you just said as your pledge of loyalty.”
Donovan was stunned.
He couldn’t believe his ears.
“This, this, this …” Donovan murmured.
“From now on, we’ll need you to keep working hard and continue managing the entire hotel.”
Donovan almost thought he was imagining things.
“Mrs. Nolan, you, you, I–I… ” he muttered.

“Alright, no need to say more, I get it. Let’s leave it wiped his tears and hurried off.”

that for now. You can get back to work.” Donovan
Eric turned his head and asked, “Are you heading to the hospital now?”
Alice nodded.
“Since Ruby’s set this trap, it’s like a ticking time bomb.”
Eric actually thought it was a bit too rushed.
“Maybe we should eat first?”
Alice waved her hand. “Come on, Eric, aren’t you even worried at all?”
This was their family business, after all.
Wasn’t that more important than a meal ?
Eric fell silent.
Daniel was mentally criticizing Eric.
Did he even know how to talk ?
He should have said, you’re too tired . You should rest a bit first , and I can handle the rest !
Come on, man !
You are driving me crazy !
Alice had already stepped out of the security room.
Eric shot Daniel a cold glare.
His look clearly blamed Daniel for not speaking up in time to stop her.
Daniel fell silent, thinking that being an employee was just too tiring .
At the Nolan Group, Sandy knocked on the door and entered. She saw Ruby looking over the documents, so she sat on the nearby couch.
“Mom, you’re a real mastermind. They went to the hospital.”
Ruby set the documents aside and gently rubbed her forehead in a slow, soft motion.
“The matter isn’t settled yet. It’s too early to celebrate.”
Sandy gave a thumbs up.

“Mom, professionals usually show their skill right away.”
“Before, Kayla and I came up with so many plans, but none worked against her.”
“Sigh, we’re just too inexperienced after all.”
Sandy let out a sigh and picked up the coffee from the side, walking over.
“Mom, in this world, the person I admire most is you.”
Ruby took the coffee.
She didn’t drink it–she just set it on the table.
“Sandy, tell me, how are things at school for you now?“*
Sandy’s heart immediately sank
“I’m following Professor Reese now. Does it really matter who I follow?”
