Chapter 308 The WarningÂ
Everything that started with one or two was still within control.Â
But anything starting with three was completely outside Julius’s reach.Â
Prisoner 345 was someone truly troublesome.Â
“Kid, you should know the consequences of meeting someone like him,” Julius said.Â
Alice gave a short, mocking laugh. “I thought you’d ask how I even knew about that prison.” Julius laughed along with her.Â
“When we first met, Jack was the one who brought you to me. But I knew that if you really wanted to hide your medical skills, he never would’ve found you. In the end, you used Jack’s loyalty to me to get close. You cured me on purpose, just to make me owe you a favor.”Â
Alice corrected him calmly.Â
“This isn’t you paying back a favor. It’s an equal trade in a cooperation deal.”Â
Julius paused, then said, “Didn’t expect you to be such a shrewd businesswoman.”Â
The tense atmosphere instantly dissolved.Â
Alice laughed.Â
“So, are we working together or not?”Â
Julius let outÂ
helpless sigh. “Even if you asked this old man to be your errand boy, I’d still have no choice but to cooperate.”Â
A faint smile curved Alice’s lips. “Deal.”Â
She hung up the phone right after.Â
Once they got off the ship, the doctors arrived.Â
Chloe was ouÂ
of danger, but the baby was gone for sure.Â
Oddly enough, Alice felt relieved for Chloe.Â
(Â
She knew that thought might make her seem cold, but if the child had been born carryingÂ

the emotional burden between two broken parents, that would’ve been unfair to the child.Â
On a more personal level, she also hoped Chloe could truly start over.Â
“All right. Thanks for your hard work,” Alice said.Â
The doctor left afterward.Â
Chloe was stable for now, but she still needed further examinations once she got back.Â
It was best for her to stay in the hospital for a few days, so she was taken straight there.Â
The pier was sealed off, and it seemed the police had made arrests.Â
Someone posted about it online, but the news was quickly buried.Â
The whole incident disappeared without a trace.Â
Aside from the people involved, no one knew what had really happened.Â
The kidnapped girls weren’t released immediately.Â
Even though Alice was exhausted, she spoke with them one by one.Â
She focused on reviewing their birth charts.Â
Some of the girls knew their exact birth details, while others only had rough estimates.Â
In the end, Alice reached a conclusion.Â
All of the data pointed to one shared trait. They were likely to live long lives.Â
Most of them were expected to live past 85 and die naturally.Â
They might not have been destined for great wealth, but their lives were expected to be smooth and stable.Â
Individually, their personal fortune wasn’t especially strong. But when the fate of more than a hundred people was stacked together, it became something powerful..Â
Julius sent someone over.Â
His name was Samson Silva.Â
He was young, around 25 or 26, and wore thin gold–rimmed glasses.Â
The lenses were strange, though.Â

By the time he arrived at the interrogation room. Alice had just finished speaking with the last girl.Â
Samson tilted his head slightly and glanced at Alice.Â
A flicker of disdain crossed his face, but he didn’t say anything.Â
WÂ
After the girl left, Alice took a sip Only then did Samson slowly speak.Â
“Ms. Spencer, Mr. Fern asked meÂ
Alice didn’t respond right away lake them from here.”Â
After what those girls had been through, the trauma would likely stay with them for life.Â
Julius was willing to have professionals use hypnosis to bury those memories deep in their subconscious, and that was a good thing for them.Â
“All right. Let’s go,” AliÂ
said.Â
Samson didn’t move. Instead, he glanced at the papers on the table where Alice had been scribbling notes and symbols.Â
His eyes narrowed immediately. “You read birth charts?”Â
Alice shook her head. “I was just doodling.”Â
“Then Ms. Spencer shouldn’t write things like that casually. If you don’t understand this kind of thing and still try to analyze others, it can bring bad luck on yourself,” he said.Â
“Thanks for the advice,” Alice replied.Â
Samson gave a cold smile.Â
“I’m not advising you. Your appearance carries a dangerous edge. I just don’t want someone with personal motives analyzing others. That wouldn’t be fair to the people being analyzed.”Â
Alice frowned.Â
She really only knew a little about symbolic systems and pattern reading. Eugenia had taught her that much.Â
That didn’t seem offensive enough to provoke this reaction.Â
This man clearly had issues.Â

“No wonder. You grew up privileged, so it’s normal for you to look down on others. But you’re headed for trouble today. I hope you manage to avoid it. Oh, right. I’m also a doctor. If you need help later, be sure to give me a call.”Â
Samson’s face darkened instantly.Â
