    Chapter 46


    Daniel was on the way home when he got Rachel’s call. Frowning at her question, he asked, “No.


    What’s wrong?”


    “Well, Alice and I agreed that she would pick up the children at six. It is now seven, but there is no sign


    of her yet. I have been calling her, and the children have sent her many messages. We have gotten no


    response. Do you think something has happened to her?”


    “Don’t worry. Nothing is wrong.” Daniel said calmly. “She’s probably dyed shooting a scene or


    something.”


    “Even if she’s working, she would not ignore her phone. Daniel, send your people out to look for her!


    You’ve finallynded yourself a wife, don’t lose her! Do you hear me?”


    Rachel was afraid that her brother was too much of a chauvinist and that Alice woulde to her


    senses one day and flee.


    If that happened, it would be a catastrophic disaster.


    “There is no possibility that I would lose her,” Daniel said with absolute confidence. He took a look at


    the time. “I’m heading over right now to pick up the children first.”


    “Fine. I’m going to keep calling Alice!”


    Hanging up the phone, Rachel remembered that Josh was in the same crew as Alice. She called Josh.


    “Hey, Josh, are you done with work?”


    “There’s no shooting today. I went home to y games,” Josh confessed honestly.


    Rachel signed in exasperation. “You rascal, can’t you spend less time on your games?” She wanted to


    climb over to the other end of the line and give her cousin a beating.


    Josh might be all grown up, but he would still sk ip work to y video games.


    On the other end, Alice had leveled Josh’s rank to the top ten. Celebratory graphics exploded across


    theputer screen.


    Josh jumped up excitedly at the shing words and loudly cheered. “Alice, you’re so awesome!


    Continue ying! If I reach the top 5, I’ll give your husband a BMW!”


    He went back to the call. “Sorry, Rachel, I can’t talk anymore. I have to go now! Bye!”


    Rachel was astonished. Had she misheard Josh?


    Did she hear Josh shout ‘Alice’?


    How did they get mixed up together?


    Did Josh and his big mouth tell her everything about their family?


    Rachel grew more and more worried as she mulled over the issue. When Daniel reached her ce,


    she grabbed him and said, “Daniel, your wife is with Josh right now. Do you think Josh would divulge


    everything?”


    Daniel’s face darkened when he heard her. “Josh does not know that Alice and I are married yet!”


    Daniel knew Josh’s personality well. If Josh had known from Alice that he and Alice were married, Josh


    would have gone straight to him and kicked up a fuss.


    Since Josh was still in the mood to y games, he probably had no idea.


    “No, no, no. We must go over and grab that rascal!” Rachel massaged her throbbing temples. “But if I


    go over with you, Josh would find out.”


    She paced in circles for a bit before an idea struck her. “I’ll call Josh right now to lure him away. You


    can then go and pick up Alice.”


    Daniel nodded. “Sure.”


    Still, he did not look happy at all. His dark mood affected the children too.


    All four of them sat there, appearing like four icy statues.


    Daniel led Rachel and the children into his car. Rachel rang Josh again. “Hey, Josh. I’m at your ce.


    Come down now!”


    Josh was in a good mood because Alice had helped him get into the top 3 in ranking. He said, “Sure.


    Give me a few


    Rachel.”


    moments,


    He handed the keys to Alice. “You can keep ying. I’m going to see my cousin. When I get back, we


    can have a candlelight


    dinner!”


    Alice took the keys. It suddenly urred to her that she should check the time.

    Chapter 46


    When she picked up her phone, she saw that she had received numerous missed calls from Rachel


    and many messages from the children. Alice remembered that she had promised to pick them up.


    They had already been waiting for two hours. The children must be worried sick.


    Alice called Rachel right away. “I’m sorry, Rachel. I was dragged away by my friend at thest minute.


    “Don’t worry about it. Daniel has already picked up the children. Why don’t you call him?” Rachel


    nced at the sullen look on her brother’s face as she spoke.


    Alice agreed at once and hung up the call. She called Daniel next.


    To her utter disbelief, the man hung up on her for the first time!
