    Chapter 160


    ina 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 ina knew that she couldn’t possibly find


    any evidence, she still wanted to know why Lucian would work for Alisha. Then ina put away her


    phone and took a taxi to the hospital.


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


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


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


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


    Things turned out just as ina expected. After what Marcus did to ina, 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 dors.


    In the Lory’s house, Ernesto was having a headache as theirpany’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 ina 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 thepany.”


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


    Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


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


    arrange at another time


    when we have the chanceter.”


    Alisha’s face suddenly turned pale, and her body shook uncontrobly. “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 wasing.


    “You know the current situation of ourpany. 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.
