Chapter 427
Alice was having a meal at the restaurant.
When she went to the restroom, she accidentally caught sight of Ethan.
“Why is he here?” she wondered.
Alice recalled what Julia had said in the afternoon. Could it be that they had arranged to meet here?
Alice thought for a moment and followed directly.
Sure enough, she saw Julia in the private room of the restaurant. She couldn’t help but sneer in her heart, “Has Ethan gone crazy?
“He agreed to negotiate with the Garcia family?”
Inside the private room.

Julia looked at Ethan and said, “Mr. Welch, I won’t beat around the bush. This is a cash cheque, which should be enough for the Welch Group to get through your difficult time. In the future, the Garcia family can also assist the Welch family and collaborate on the artificial intelligence project, so that we can both benefit.”
Ethan glanced at the cash cheque and indeed, the Welch family was short of money now.
The money that Chloe transferred away had not been retrieved. The company was currently facing financial difficulties. If the situation continued, it would be troublesome.
Ethan coldly spoke.“You killed my parents. Do you want to send me away with such a little money? I’m not a beggar!”
“Mr. Welch, what other conditions do you have? I will do my best to make up for you as long as they are achievable. I am very sorry for what happened in the past and hope that we can prevent the hatred of the previous generation from continuing in our generation.”
Julia’s attitude was sincere and humble.
When Ethan saw the Garcia family’s attitude, his expression finally softened. “Isn’t your apology a bit too late?”
He had been invest for so many years, and he never expected that Aviana alone was behind this.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know about what happened back then. But I asked my mother. She just wanted to stop your parents and didn’t expect the car accident to be so severe, which resulted in the death of your parents.”
Julia’s eyes were filled with sadness.“I know you’re angry and sad, but all of this was the driver’s own decision, deliberately causing the death of your parents. He wanted to continue extorting money from my mother, and over the years, my mother has given him a lot of money.”
Ethan heard this and asked, “Are you saying that it has nothing to do with the Garcia family?”
“I didn’t mean that, but I just want you to know that my mother didn’t intend to harm your parents. It was the driver who did it intentionally for extortion. Mr. Welch, if you’re willing to spare my mother this time, the Garcia family will be extremely grateful.”
Julia showed a sad and fragile expression, looking earnestly at Ethan.“Mr. Welch, it is not easy to get established in California, but with the support of the Garcia family, I believe the Welch family will only grow stronger!”
“Julia, your family is going bankrupt. Why are you still pretending to be something?”
Alice kicked open the door of the private room and walked in with a cold face.
Julia looked over in surprise and found all the bodyguards she had left at the door lying on the ground. A hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes. She was taken aback by Alice’s strength.
Alice turned her head and looked at Ethan, her eyes filled with mockery.“Does Noah know you came here to meet the Garcia family?”
Although she disliked the Welch family, currently, the only reasonable person was Noah.
Ethan’s expression was somewhat unnatural.“I am well aware of the situation in the Welch family. There’s no need to tell him.”
“You lied, which shows that you were guilty and that’s why you didn’t dare to tell him.”
Alice was very familiar with Ethan’s personality. Now that the Welch Group was facing a crisis, if he wanted to tide over, he could only seek investment from others.
The conditions proposed by the Garcia family would indeed help Ethan overcome the difficulties.
After being exposed, Ethan angrily slammed the table and said, “Alice, how rude you are! This matter is not as you think. I came here just to

find out what happened back then!”
“If

f you want to know about the past, you can simply ask me. Why did you have to sneakily meet with the people from the Garcia family? Aren’t you guilty–hearted?”
Ethan felt extremely embarrassed when Alice interrogated him.“Alice, it’s not your turn to meddle in my affairs!”
“Do you think I want? But if you made a certain deal to reconcile with the Garcia family, then I would have to intervene.”
Alice was furious. “Ethan, you always claimed that you saved our parents for years. I never expected you to be such a hypocritical bastard, reconciling with the Garcia family for money!”
“Alice, shut up. I am just meeting with them, not for reconciliation!”
How could Ethan possibly admit it now?
He was somewhat angry with Alice in his heart. Did she have to be so aggressive and make him lose face?
He was her elder brother!
Julia, who was standing next to them, saw the siblings arguing, and a hint of amusement flashed in her eyes. This was exactly the effect she wanted.
Julia quickly intervened and said, “Both of you, stop arguing. Alice, you misunderstood your elder brother. He came over just to inquire about the truth of what happened back then.”
Alice looked over.“The cheque is still on the table. Who do you think you can fool?”
“Ms. Welch, the cheque is sincere compensation from the Garcia family. I did approach Ethan for reconciliation. However, he did not agree, so there is no need for you to misunderstand him like this. After all, you are siblings.”
Before Julia reached Ethan, she had already investigated their sibling relationship.
She also knew that the
family mistakenly thought Darren saved Alice’s life and treated Chloe better than Alice.
Because of this, Alice’s relationship with her brothers was very bad.
Julia knew that she could take advantage of that.
When Ethan heard Julia defend him, his expression softened.“That’s right. How could I possibly reconcile? Alice, you underestimate me.”
Julia looked over and said, “Mr. Welch, I hope you can consider my proposal. After all, both the Garcia family and the Welch family were deceived by that driver.”
Ethan remained silent for a moment and said, “I will consider it.”
Alice asked, “What does it mean?”
She didn’t quite understand Julia’s words.
Julia slightly smirked and said, “Ms. Welch, why don’t you ask Ethan? I won’t disturb you.”
Julia didn’t want to tell Alice as she was waiting for the siblings to argue.
“Wait, take the check!”
Alice didn’t want anything from the Garcia family. She found it disgusting.

Julia turned back and smiled.“It is a compensation from the Garcia family. You don’t have to worry about it. The Garcia family sincerely wants to help Mr. Welch get through this difficult time. Just take it!”
Ethan didn’t expect Julia to say that.
Alice snorted coldly, tore the check into pieces, and threw it at Julia.“Take your money. Who cares?”
The smile on Julia’s face faded slightly as she glanced at Ethan.“I am waiting for your response, Mr. Welch.”
Julia finished speaking and turned around to leave.
Alice stood still and felt a chill all over her body.
She turned around and looked at Ethan, saying, “Do you think I don’t know you are tempted?”
Ethan looked at the pieces on the ground and said, “This is what the Garcia family owes our family. Why can’t we demand it?”
“They killed our parents! How could you take their money?”
