My Ex-Husband Always Knew That I Had Cheated on Him

Chapter 171: Chapter 171: She Saved His Life Before?

[...Alright.] Chloe paused for a moment, then replied.

She had thought that when Alexander woke up, he would undoubtedly confront her, especially since she had picked up the fruit knife and stabbed him.

To her surprise, upon waking and seeing her, the first thing he said was this.

While Chloe was still bewildered, her phone vibrated again, and Alexander sent another message.

[Chloe, I can choose not to pursue this matter with you. But you must tell me everything, from start to finish, in full detail.]

[Alright.] Chloe replied again.

[Earlier tonight, you barged into the private room, demanding answers and accusing me of being behind your mother’s kidnapping. How did you know about this? Do you have any evidence? Or did someone send you information? Send me everything you have on this.]

Alexander followed up immediately with another rapid message.

Chloe froze, surprised that Alexander actually wanted the evidence.

After some thought, she sent all the information she had received to Alexander.

No matter what his motive was or how he planned to use the information, it wouldn’t affect her.

As long as Alexander didn’t delete the evidence in her possession, Chloe always had proof that it was Alexander who kidnapped her mother.

After Alexander received the data, he gave Chloe a faint glance.

Then he lowered his gaze and began scrutinizing the information closely.

He had to admit that the evidence was indeed comprehensive. Not just Chloe—if he were in her position and saw the same information, he would have believed it, too.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, put down his phone, and glanced again at Gabriella, who was lying on the nearby caregiver’s bed.

She was his primary suspect.

After all, in the entirety of Kyohai, there were very few courageous enough to provoke him.

Moreover, since his entanglement with Chloe began on her wedding night, Gabriella had been the instigator behind it all.

Alexander stared at Gabriella for a while before continuing to message Chloe.

[So tonight, all those calls you made to me were because you saw this evidence and believed I was the one who kidnapped your mother?]

Chloe nodded: [Yes.]

Alexander asked again: [But Nanny King and your calls—I didn’t answer any of them. How did you end up finding the room in Nightfall?]

He was attending Bastian’s birthday party, something Chloe had no way of knowing, and he hadn’t disclosed it to Nanny King.

There was no way she could locate the Nightfall private room so accurately in such a short time.

[I drank quite a lot and was very emotional at the time. My mom called you and you didn’t pick up, so I decided to head out myself. Initially, I thought if I couldn’t find you, I’d call the police.]

[But things took an unexpected turn. Shortly after I ran out, a car pulled up and the driver asked if I wanted a ride. I got in, and after chatting briefly, the driver joked that late at night, men who didn’t go home must be at places like entertainment venues. So I asked him to take me to Nightfall.]

[When I arrived, I showed your photo to Nightfall’s manager. The manager said you were in Room 666 and led me there.]

Chloe recounted every detail from the time she started drinking to her arrival at the private room in Nightfall.

After sending her recollection to Alexander, she felt a strong sense in her gut.

Could it be that her mother wasn’t kidnapped by Alexander after all?

[Alright, I understand. Think carefully to see if there’s anything you might have missed. If you remember something, let me know.]

After reading Chloe’s message and replying, Alexander forwarded their entire conversation to Jack Woods via a text.

[Jack, we couldn’t find concrete evidence before. Now, follow these clues and investigate. Once you find the evidence, preserve everything.]

[Alright, Eldest Young Master, I’ll start immediately.]

After Alexander gave his orders, Jack promptly began investigating.

Meanwhile, Chloe sat there and painstakingly replayed everything that had happened tonight in her mind.

She had already shared everything she knew with Alexander—there was nothing else left to say.

But then, she remembered what Alexander said before he lost consciousness.

"Heh, this life of mine you once saved. And now you want to end it... Very... well..."

Looking at Alexander lying on the hospital bed, she pulled out her phone and sent him another message.

[Alexander, what did you mean when you said before passing out that I once saved your life? What is that about?]

Alexander froze when he saw the message, his heart suddenly sinking.
