Chapter 460: Right time

"I am sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you" He apologized for raising his voice on her.

Noah knew he overreacted. But the moment he heard her mention Dylan’s name, every cell of his body began to burn in rage.

The moment he realized he again failed to protect her made him feel worse.

Alice who was silent the entire time sensed the tension in his body and wrapped her arms around her and hugged him back.

Burring his face into the crook of her neck Noah tried to calm himself.

More than Alice it was him who needed to relax because the person they caught wasn’t Dylan or else he didn’t know what he would have done.

But deep down he also wanted it to be Dylan so these search for him would finally end and they could live their lives in peace.

"I know I should have told you sooner but the situation we were in didn’t give me the time to speak up. You were so happy..... I didn’t want to ruin your mood." Alice explained.

That thought had been lingering in her mind since the moment Ashley mentioned it, but watching him enjoying his time with his friends, she did have the heart to spoil his happiness.

Closing his eyes, Noah took a deep breath before pulling back and stared deep into Alice’s eyes.

"My happiness is with you, Alice. Your safety is my concern and no matter what I can’t stand the fact of Dylan secretly tailing you while I am unaware of it. I don’t want anything to happen to you both" Noah expressed his concerns.

He couldn’t stand the fact that something had happened to them while he couldn’t do anything. He didn’t want to face the helplessness of not being able to do anything while his wife and child suffered the consequences of his negligence.

Alice could see through his fears and felt everything he was going through.

She had already seen how defeated he looked when he could stop that accident and he almost lost her.

If he had to go through the same thing again, she feared he wouldn’t be able to handle it. She was his life, and living without her was like surviving like a corpse.

Letting out a deep breath Alice signed and hugged him tightly. She couldn’t see him going through any emotional breakdown. She knew how it felt to be helpless and she didn’t want him to face it.

"I won’t let anything happen to me and our child. I promise... " Alice assured and watched him relax in her embrace.

The couple stood hugging each other for a long time before parting away. "By the way who was that man I assumed to be Dylan" she asked.

"I don’t know yet but don’t worry our men will interrogate him before concluding anything" Noah didn’t want to take any risk.

Even if the man was a stranger, he still had to check everything before letting him go.

Alice fell silent for a moment before bobbing her head in understanding. She knew Noah wouldn’t let this incident slide just like that. He would dive deeply to ensure that everything was fine and there wasn’t any threat lingering around their lives.

Meanwhile, a man who stood watching the incident with his own eyes left the spot when the man was taken away by Noah’s men.

Dylan returned to his place and closed the door of his shabby house. He had been careful all these days, until yesterday when he noticed Ashley’s car entering Alice’s house.

At first, he thought she didn’t notice him but when she turned to look outside the window, it alarmed him and he quickly hid behind the tree.

Knowing Alice’s close relationship with Ashley, Dylan knew she wouldn’t stay quiet even if it was her assumption. She would definitely inform Alice about her suspicion.

So to confirm his doubts, he came up with a plan to replace that homeless man disguised as him, and to his surprise, the plan worked when he saw a guard approaching the man.

Since the man wasn’t in the right state of mind, Dylan had no problem getting exposed.

"So my guess was right. Ashley did alert Alice" Dylan’s face darkened as his plan of getting inside the house got ruined.

He had been waiting for the right time, but the security around the house was too tight for him to even sneak in secretly.

After Lucas’s sudden death, Dylan lost his support but thanks to the money he extorted from him before he left the world, he was able to survive until he executed his plan of killing Alice and leaving the country once and for all.

He had everything planned but now with Ashley’s intervention, he had to pick plan B.

Now that he couldn’t sneak into the house, he had to kill Alice outside. But for that, he had to wait for her to be alone.

Once he would be able to catch hold of her he would show her how it feels to get ruined. Back then, he let his friends have her but this time, he would take the initiative to destroy her and kill her without any mercy.

"Just wait and watch Alice. The way you and your husband ruined my life. I will ruin yours and that man will suffer the guilt of not being able to protect you" Dylan’s words were extremely cold and heartless.

He didn’t care how dreadful he sounded but for him revenging the people who caused him misery, he would never let them live in peace.

Picking out his phone he then looked at the pictures of her visiting the gynecologist along with Noah.

"And I know how I would get you" With an evil glim flashing through his eyes Dylan smiled as something clicked in his mind.

Meanwhile, a car drove in the outskirts of city M.

"Do you really want to do this?" Max asked turning his head to the side and watched the anxious Tori who kept biting her lower lips.

They had been driving for almost two hours now and it was quiet dense since they left the city.

Unlike Tori, Max was a little relax but deep down the seed of guilt kept growing and his hand around the steering wheel tightened in nervousness.

"It’s now or never Max. We have to do this no matter what" Tori’s words after a long pause left Max with no choice and he instantly sighed pursing his lips back into a thin line.
