Chapter 270: Wait, were they siblings?
“Gramps, what are you doing here?” Alice asked with her eyes lighting up in glee.
Adolf stood to his feet, clearing his throat in his folded fist, and then stretched his arm.
Alice wasted no time, running over to hug him.
“I’ll just be filling in for that bratty grandson of yours.” She said, wrapping her arms around him, and he laughed, but Philip did not take it lightly.
“Hey, watch your mouth.” He said, stepping forward.
“Like I said, you have no right to tell me how I treat my grandfather, he’s mine.” Alice shot him a glare, and his lips pressed together in a thin line as though she had zipped it up for him.
“Well, jokes on you.” Alice said, smirking.
“He’s mine now, so be careful how you treat him or I might just break your arms.” “You…
You wouldn’t dare.” Philip said.
“Oh, I’m sure I almost succeeded in doing that the last time.
You got lucky.” She sneered at him, provoking him more and he clicked his tongue.
“Get away.
He’s my grandfather, not yours.” “And why would I listen to you?
You don’t even value what you have.” Alice said and turned to Adolf, winking.
“Gramps and I had an agreement, so he’s my grandfather now.” “That’s a lie.” Philip raged and then someone cleared their throat.
Miss Stella did.
She stopped the two from bickering any further and said, “Chairman, can you not keep quiet while the kids go on a rampage?” She asked Adolf who ended up laughing.
“I just wanted to watch them act lively for a while longer.” He said, patting Alice’s head.
“You know, there’s no one who exchanges words with Phil, so Alice being around helps a lot.” “So, you’re taking her side?” Philip asked and Adolf looked at him with a serious expression.
“No, I’m not.” He answered.
“But I’m letting her do whatever she wants, just as I let you do whatever you want.
You’re not that far apart in age so you’re very much siblings at this point if I decide to take Alice in for real.” Philip’s eyes widened and so did the rest of the people in the room.
Mark was stunned.
Did he hear right?
Amira, who was completely oblivious as to what was going on, and Clarissa, both blinked in confusion.
What was the meaning of that?
Not only did Alice know the Chairman but he was also thinking of taking her in?
Just how…

How was that possible?
Who was Alice after all?
She acted so brazen towards Philip from the beginning, pissing him off at any chance she got, and Clarissa thought she was just putting on airs, but it turned out that she had met him before, and this was their…
Usual way of confronting each other?
Wait, were they siblings?
Cousins?
They had a resemblance but…
How was Alice related to the Chairman?
Micheal was simply being Micheal, hiding his expressions behind his mask and staying quiet to listen to the whole thing before he reacted.
Leo rested his back on the wall with folded arms, observing quietly.
Miss Stella on the other hand, was not surprised in the slightest.
“Ahem,” she cleared her throat.
“We didn’t come here to discuss family affairs, father.” She said, giving them yet another shock.
Miss Stella was the Chairman’s daughter.
Alice’s eyes widened.
She did not see that coming.
“Yes, yes.
You are right.” Adolf said and led Alice to sit down.
“This is an important matter so let’s get to it.” Alice said down, and only then did she notice the other person aside, the completely overwhelmed principal sitting behind his desk.
“Hey,” Alice called out.
“Who are you?” Adolf turned to Alice and then to the chair next to the blinds.
Then, he turned to the others who had entered the room.
Did no one else notice?
“Alice, what are you talking about?” Adolf asked and she turned to him.
“There’s no one there.” Alice turned to Adolf with furrowed eyebrows and then to Clarissa and the others who looked like they couldn’t see anything.
Then, she pointed at the chair at the end.
“Leo, am I seeing things or is there a guy with long hair sitting on that chair?” She asked out loud and Leo said, “You’re not seeing things.” “What are you talking about?” Clarissa asked.
“There’s no one there.
The chair is empty.” “Is that so?” Alice uttered quite plainly and her lips curled up.
“Then, that means we’re being spied on.” In an instant, Leo got to the chair and grabbed him by the collar but as soon as he did, the man started laughing.
“Quite a performance, chairman.” He said and revealed himself to be Noah.
“I didn’t expect you to go along with me but you did.” He laughed.
“I know what you were trying to do.” Adolf said, “So, I just played along.” Alice was a bit lost.
“Wait, so was this some sort of test?” She asked and Leo let go of his shirt.
“Well, you could say that.” He got up from the chair and walked towards Alice.
He stood in front of her and said, “And you passed with flying colors, Alice Reinhart.” “Hm,” Alice titled her head, thinking.
A test, hm?
“Then, can I also test you?” She asked and he blinked, confused.
“I don’t know you, but you know me, so that’s why you tested me, right?
But if that brat over there,” she pointed at Philip.
“Hey!” He exclaimed, offended at her words.
“…
couldn’t even sense you then I’m guessing you’re very strong.
So, should I test you to see if it’s worth listening to whatever you have to say?” “Hm, then why do you think I have something to say to you?
I might just be here to see you for myself, since you’re so popular.” He said with a grin playing on his lips.
Alice folded her arms and rested her back on her chair.
“If you just wanted to see me, I think it would’ve been more effective if you pretended to be Marcus who’s pretending to be the principal over there.” She pointed out and his eyes widened.
“Wait, what?” He turned to the principal who chuckled and said, “Impressive, Miss Alice.” His face gradually faded out, exposing his true face to be that of Marcus.
