Marcus laughed as he flattered Alice on the phone, he wants to know where she is and what she is doing, knowing that she is also in Brooklyn.
He needs to make sure that Alice is still not aware of his moves and plan, that's why he makes her think that he is in Brooklyn with his buddies to attend the grand alumni and to have fun with his old friends.
Alice is thinking the same way too, as she told Marcus that she is going to attend the alumni, she made a plan on her mind to make sure that Marcus wouldn't find out about Simone's family and their address, she made a plan to prevent him from contacting his friends who can help him find Ramona and Simeon. Little did she knows that Marcus is one step ahead of her with his plan.
He already talked to some of his friends to help him. It's just that before he could even think of looking through the registration records for Simone's family, Alice already had someone destroy the records.
All of Marcus' friends didn't like Alice a bit, because she is a self-centered woman and a bitch during their college days.
Alice went through her phone's contacts to find if she still has Ramona Sheffield's contact number. She wanted to call her to know their whereabouts so that she could send her men there to kill the old couple.
She found Ramona's number and dialed it immediately, but the phone is no longer available.
Alice: damn it!!! that old bitch is no longer using her old phone number??? Where are they??? why did they sell their old ancestral house? That house is memorable to them, what made them sell it???
Alice went out of the restaurant and go to their old house. Her brother is still keeping the house for some important and illegal reasons.
Alice and her brother are a member of a big drug syndicate, she and her brother holds a position in the syndicate, but she didn't use their men to do the killings for her. She hired expert killers to do it because she doesn't want to implicate the syndicate if something goes wrong.
Before she married Marcus, her father is the big boss of the syndicate unknown to Marcus' father who was serving in the military at the time. Marcus' military father inspired Marcus and his friend Glenard to join the military and volunteer to go to Iraq.
She fell in love with Marcus when she first saw him at his father's birthday party when she was only fifteen years old. Since then she chased Marcus and ask her father to help her. Unfortunately, Marcus is not interested in her.
After trying so hard to make Marcus notice her, Marcus fell in love with her friend Simone. She joined the syndicate and ask her brother to help her find a hired killer to kill Simone, now Simone is dead. But the problem is still there while her parents are still alive. So....
Alice plans to have Ramona and Simeon eliminated to solve her problem.
