Chapter 165: Chapter 167

Chapter 167 “Ow! Ow! Ow! My finger’s going to break!”

Garcia’s finger until Chloe rushed over.

Alice continued twisting Melody Garcia’s Chloe pleaded, “Alice, let go! There are people watching!” “They’re watching because Melody Garcia started this.”

Alice released her grip, and Melody Garcia landed in a heap. Chloe helped her up. “Are you okay**

Melody Garcia Garcia screamed hysterically. “What “Don’t you dare touch her!”

you doing? Break her finger!”

Luke strode onto the stage, addressing Melody Garcia. “Ms. Garcia, you’re assaulting someone in broad daylight. Are you looking to get arrested again?

Chloe’s face paled at Luke’s appearance.

Melody Garcia sneered, “Who are you? Alice’s boyfriend?”

“Watch your mouth. Alice’s my sister.”

“Alice’s an orphan. Where did you get a sister?”

Luke stated firmly, Alice isn’t an orphan. She’s the heiress of the Windham Corporation in A–City. She’s just low–key about it.”

Melody Garcia was astonished. But isn’t Chloe the Lu heiress? How did it become Alice?” Melody Garcia glanced at Chloe, who had been presenting herself as the Lu heiress! Chloe’s carefully constructed composure nearly crumbled.

Chloe quickly spoke to Luke.“Second Brother, so many people are watching. Let’s talk privately.”

She couldn’t let others know she was just an adopted daughter! How would she maintain her social standing?

“Chloe is our adopted daughter, the chauffeur’s child. Alice is my biological sister!”

Luke publicly confirmed Alice’s identity.

Chloe’s face turned deathly white. It was over. Everything was over! How would she maintain her position in the business school?

Melody Garcia was also surprised. Alice wasn’t a country bumpkin? She was a heiress? Melody Garcia felt a pang of resentment. “If Alice’s the real heiress, why was the chauffeur’s. daughter attending the Business School instead of her?”

“Alice’s place in the Business School was reserved for her. She was too bright, so she got into Cloud University.”

Luke’s words were heard by everyone present. The crowd erupted in buzz.

“Wow! Alice’s the real heiress! She’s a Business School student too.”

“Alice’s so understated! The chauffeur’s daughter took her place and flaunted her heiress status. How ridiculous.”

“Yeah, stealing someone’s identity and being arrogant is hilarious.”

Chapter 167 Chloe was mortified by the comments. Tears welled in her eyes. She looked at Luke.“Second Brother, you...

Why did you humiliate me in public? Why?

But Luke didn’t look at Chloe. He turned to Alice, speaking softly. “Alice, I’ve done many wrong things. After some reflection, I realize the hurt I caused you.

I don’t ask for your forgiveness, only to make amends, to protect you from bullies!” Alice’s expression was calm.“Did you ask if I needed this?”

“I just saw you being bullied, so I wanted to clarify your identity!”

“See? You didn’t ask what I needed but assumed your actions were amends. You only impressed yourself.”

Alice never wanted to reveal her connection to the Windhams! But Luke had done it publicly! And he claimed it was to protect her, to clarify her status as an heiress! Luke panicked. “That’s not what I meant.” He genuinely wanted to do something.

Alice grabbed the microphone and addressed the crowd.“I was part of the Windham family, but I’m not anymore. My long–time fans know I have a bad relationship with my family. I want to reiterate that I have nothing to do with the Windhams!”

Luke felt miserable upon hearing Alice’s words, unsure what to say.

Chloe seized the opportunity.“Alice, Second Brother meant well. Why humiliate him publicly? I’m so envious of you.”

Alice’s senior sneered.“Chloe, you’re the chauffeur’s daughter. Yet you attended the Busines School, taking someone else’s place. Don’t you know?”

“Yeah, a chauffeur’s daughter in Business School shows how biased they are.”

“That explains why Goddess Lemon. cut ties with her family. I would too!”

Chloe was speechless, looking to Luke for help. Second Brother, that’s not what I meant! I was trying to persuade Alice!”

“I don’t need you to persuade her. Shut your manipulative mouth!”

Luke didn’t fall for Chloe’s trick this time.“Alice not giving me face is my fault. No one else is to blame.”

Chloe was stunned. She’d always gotten results with this tactic. Alice’s blatant rejection, and Luke showing no resentment...

Luke walked off the stage, Chloe anxiously following.

Melody Garcia was alone onstage.

Alice raised an eyebrow at Melody Garcia, who fled, terrified of being confronted again. Alice’s senior stood beside her.“Despite the little conflict, the voting will continue.” Alice won overwhelmingly, becoming the new captain!

She was surrounded by well–wishers; her popularity was immense!

Soon, however, the Mos arrived.

Alice went to the captain’s office. A lawyer in glasses, and Melody Garcia, were there.

* Chapter Melody Garcia smirked. “Alice, this is my lawyer. You’re finished. It’s your turn to go to jail.

The lawyer pushed his glasses up.“Ms. Alice, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you. We spoke on the phone earlier.”

“Oh, it’s you.”

Alice sat down and opened her phone. This is the video from the restroom yesterday, Melody Garcia didn’t tell you, did she?”

Melody Garcia felt uneasy. She hadn’t mentioned it, afraid of being scolded. Her mother had told her to stay low–profile.

The lawyer’s expression changed after watching the video. He stood and made a call, reporting the incident to Mrs. Mo.

Soon, Melody Garcia received a furious call from her mother.

The lawyer looked at Alice.“How do you intend to resolve this?”

“Simple. Melody Garcia apologizes, and I delete the video.”

“Never! I’ll never apologize!”

Melody Garcia stormed out.

Alice smiled faintly at the lawyer. I’ll give you a day to think. I’m very reasonable.”

“Ms. Alice, I need to report this. But if you persist in antagonizing the Mos, we’ll withdraw our funding. Think carefully.”

After the lawyer left, Alice realized she needed to solve this problem. The only company knew that could provide sponsorship was Maple Leaf Corporation.

Alice texted Garrett.“[Garrett, are you free for dinner?]”

Garrett was shocked by the message.

she He looked up at Jack “[You’ve been. in touch with Little Lemon lately?] Jack, who’d been reviewing documents, looked up, his expression darkening.“[No.]” “[But she just texted me, asking me out to dinner!]”
