Watch Me Win Alpha (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 233

We were silent for a few moments. Adam came back into the room and handed a glass of water to his sister. She took it gratefully and drained most of it with one gulp.

“Russell and Kelly were headed for the same college,” she said in a miserable tone. “Only an hour away from here, and they would always promise me that they would visit home on the weekends.” Her voice shook, and she averted her eyes to her cold tea.

Ava and I shared a look, sympathy for the grieving mother flowed between us.

“Chloe.” Ava murmured with anger in her eyes.

I knew that her thoughts had gone in the same direction as mine. This was all Chloe’s fault. Russell and Kelly had a great future ahead of them, and Chloe ruined it all with her wicked games. She killed Russell and ruined Kelly’s life by driving the poor girl crazy.

I looked at Alexander, who was gazing at Russell’s mother with compassion. An electric shock went through me when I realized that without Alexander’s protection, I could have ended up like Kelly or Russell since Chloe seemed to have it out for me. Gratefulness for the man beside me filled my heart until it felt like it was going to burst.

“At least my Russell died protecting the girl he loved,” Sarah said, her voice shaking as fresh tears fell down her face. “I know that if given the choice, he would make the same decision again.”

“After Russell’s disappearance, my sister held out hope that Chloe was just keeping Russell hostage in one of the Windsor’s many properties,” Adam said. “Sarah trailed Chloe to New York, and she tried to get into the properties a few times by pretending to be there to interview as a maid, but she was always turned away.”

“Can you believe that the Windsor’s had the audacity to call the police on me?” Sarah said. She was no longer crying. Her green eyes were burning with rage. “The police told me that I needed to let it rest.” She scoffed and crossed her arms. “As if I could just easily forget about the fact that my son was missing.”
