Chapter 1688 The Close family Is Very Difficult To Deal With

It was definitely not a coincidence that Ebby had actually come over just when she called.

So Ebby was suspecting her?

Or maybe she was spying on her?

And would Ernesto be spied on?

Thinking of this, Alison quickly checked her bedroom, and sure enough, she found a miniature bug
under her bed.

Ebby had only been back for a short while. When had she installed this in her room? Or had it always
been here?

Nope!

She had checked the room when she first came back and hadn't found any bugging device. So when
had it been installed?

Alison instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

She actually didn't know!

She had simply been too careless.

If that was the case, then there was a good chance that Ernesto would be exposed.

No matter what she said to Ernesto, as long as she contacted Ernesto, the Close family would have
investigated Ernesto thoroughly. And since Ernesto was Samuel's man, would the Close family use her
connections to do something to Ernesto that would threaten Samuel and Nicole?



Alison was thinking a lot. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that she had done
something wrong.

She should never have called Ernesto!

Not only did she get Ernesto into trouble, but she may have gotten Nicole and Samuel into trouble.

If something did happen, she would not be able to escape blame even if she died.

With this in mind, Alison quickly restored the bug to its original state and took out her spare phone. She
thought for a moment but didn't turn it on. Instead, she opened the computer and opened up the
browser. She clicked on a few pages, all of which were descriptions of tourist projects.

After looking at them for a while, Alison closed the pages, then opened her phone again and checked
for tickets for some nearby locations. There didn't seem to be any suitable ones, and she finally gave
up.

Meanwhile, Ebby pulled Clark in to watch Alison's every move in the surveillance room and said in a
stern voice, "Zoom in and see what she's looking at or posting."

Clark was instantly annoyed.

"Ebby, you're actually spying on my daughter!"

"Brother, I know you're happy to have Alison back, but you have to know what the Close family is like
now, and Alison was a soldier in Country Z before! Soldiers have beliefs! We are related to her by
blood, but who knows if she will betray us for her beliefs? As you said, she didn't eat a single grain of
rice from the Close family. With the thin blood ties alone, are you sure that she is really helping us?"

Ebby's words made Clark very dissatisfied.



"Even if she doesn't help us, it's justifiable, right? After all, it was the Close family that wronged her all
these years! Don't you know what my daughter has been through? How can you still think of asking her
to help the Close family?"

Seeing Clark so agitated, Ebby could not help but soften her tone.

"Brother, I'm not begging Alison to help us. I just hope that she is not our enemy."

Clark stopped talking this time.

Her men quickly searched out the pages Alison had read, which were all about tourism and the
attractions were all by the sea.

Clark suddenly remembered that Alison had told Old Mrs. Close that she quite liked Seapolis City,
because it had mountains and the sea.

Was she homesick?

Was she thinking of her home in Seapolis City while staying at the Close family?

Clark suddenly felt a bit sad.

Ebby was also a bit surprised.

She was browsing traveling websites?

Could it be that she wanted to go on a trip?

When she saw Alison fiddling with her mobile phone, she asked someone to find out her phone's
browsing history and saw that she was looking up airline tickets.

Everything suggested that Alison wanted to go out on a trip.



Maybe she was feeling too depressed at the Close family.

Clark let out a sigh and said, "If she really wants to go out, don't stop her."

"Brother, you know, even if I don't stop her now, Dad won't let her go out. Don't you know what is going
on now?"

Ebby looked at Clark, who had no principles because of Alison's change, and couldn't help but feel a
little worried.

"Brother, you are the eldest son of the Close family. The great cause of the Close family still rests on
your shoulders."

"I'm a cripple. How can I carry the big cause? You are so capable, and you can do it. I just want my wife
and child to be healthy and well."

After saying that, Clark pushed his wheelchair and left.

Ebby looked at Clark's back and felt a little sad. She could never have imagined that she and her
brother would one day become like this because of Alison.

"Check again if there are any mistakes."

Ebby was still a little worried.

Her men checked several times but found nothing, while Ebby frowned and said, "Is it really because
I'm too suspicious?"

And at that moment, Lucas' computer suddenly sounded.



He quickly jumped up and turned the computer on. Instantly, several web pages appeared on his
computer screen.

They all looked like travel pages, but as Lucas tapped his fingers on the keyboard, the pages
alternated quickly and then slowly formed a set of codes.

At the same time, he received messages on his mobile phone.

They were messages from the plane flights that Alison had viewed.

Lucas tweaked those messages as well and a set of codes appeared at the same time.

After integrating the two sets of codes, Lucas got the message back from Alison.

"Ernesto may have been targeted. Tell Mrs. and Mr. Green to be careful. Also, Ebby is more difficult to
deal with than she thought. Check out her husband, and there might be a breakthrough."

Seeing such a message, Lucas quickly sorted it out and submitted it to Morty.

Morty's brow furrowed slightly.

"The Close family is very difficult to deal with. Ebby has arms deals with many countries. We don't
know how many weapons they have in the family. If we push them too hard and they become
desperate, then just the weapons in their hands could start a war with far-reaching implications. If that
wasn't the case, why would we let Alison go back and dismantle the Close family from the inside? It's
just that now it actually involves Ernesto and Sam, so that's going to be a bit difficult."

Lucas also frowned.

"My daddy and mummy are still overseas in the war and everything in the family is run by Uncle
Ernesto. The Green family's operations wouldn't be affected too much if they were really targeted by



the Close family. But Uncle Ernesto means something different to Aunty Alison, so how about I go back
and protect Uncle Ernesto?"

"You can't. You're just a little kid. How can you go back to protect him? Although you are good at
fighting, it's always inappropriate. I'll send someone over to protect Ernesto, and you just stay here.
Also, don't tell anyone about this."

Morty simply refused Lucas's request.

Lucas's brow furrowed tightly.

He was a little kid? But wasn't it still up to him to break the message?

As if sensing Lucas's displeasure, Morty got a little depressed. Lucas was the only one who dared to
treat him like that.

This brat really wasn't afraid of him.

"Don't you glare at me! I have another task for you."

"What task?"

Lucas asked immediately, but it made Morty a little hesitant.
