Chapter 330 Alice thought the Windham brothers were incredibly arrogant. Even now, condescending. Did he think being his sister was an honor?
now, Ethan was Ethan, seeing Aliceâs silence, thought she was hesitating.âAlice, I know you returned to the Windham family for your parentsâ
inheritance, not for Chloe. If you return sincerely, weâll be a Family again. Iâll treat everyone fairly; I wonât favor Chloe.â He realized Chloe was useless and at liability.
âNo, youâre lying. You saw my good relationship with Mary and want to use me to secure her.â Alice exposed his scheme. Maryâs face changed. Alice reassured her.âMr. Ethan, do you think everyone is a fool? A slap and a carrot, and everyone will come crawling back?â She was a person, not a dog. Perhaps in the past, sheâd been an obedient dog to to her brothers. âAlice, youâre too petty. Iâm giving you a chance, and youâre not seizing it. Donât regret it later.â Ethan hung up.
Alice looked at Mary.âMy brother is arrogant; he thinks heâs always right.â Heâd called her, wanting to use her to get close to Mary, but still condescending. The other brothers were no different.
Maryâs eyes were red. âIâm sorry.â
âDonât apologize. Theyâve treated me like this for years. Be strong at the banquet; my brother and Mrs. Parker are difficult.â
Alice put on the white dress from the box. She wouldnât let Ethan use the Parker family to expand his Al project; she needed to provoke Chloe and her backer. That way, she could find Xclues.
Alice, Mary, and Lana Parker went to a salon. Mary realized something was amiss; this salon was hard to book, yet the driver took them there. It was Jackâs arrangement. After their makeover, Mary told Alice.
Alice was stunned. Jack had been messaging her daily, mostly trivial things about meetings, dinners. Heâd been sending gifts despite her refusals. She could delete him, but she hadnât. She couldnât forget him so easily.
Alice said, âSince someone wants to be a sucker, why not? Itâs late; you should go to the banquet. Mary felt relieved. âHeâll probably come. Heâll protect you.â The Windham family was insignificant compared to the Wilson family. Would Jack be there?
Alice felt uneasy.
Mary left; Alice and Lana Parker werenât ready yet. Lana Parker was nervous.âMary might completely fall out with her family.â
âIf she doesnât do anything, sheâll be used and discarded.â Like in Aliceâs past life.
Alice glanced at Lana Parker.âItâs not too late to back out.â
âAm I that spineless?â
spineless? Lana Parker Was scared but still wanted to help.
An hour later, Alice and Lana Parker arrived at the sevenâstar hotel. Many luxury cars were already there. Their taxi stood out.
Even the driver looked at them in the rearview mirror, wondering if they were troublemakers.
Alice boldly entered.
Ãlice, why do you crash every party? This banquet is for high society and Parker family relatives.
Who are you?â Max looked down at Alice.âMy sister and the Wilson family heir are a couple.) Donât dream. You want to be a mistress? Look at yourself! My sister is the top socialite!â Max wanted to kill Alice; only her sister stopped her.
Alice remained impassive. She expected this.
Lana Parker said, âMistress? Watch your mouth. The Wilson family denied the engagement with your sister. Youâre the ones clinging to him.â
Max raised her hand to hit Lana Parker, but Alice grabbed her wrist. If you hit someone here, youâll be on the news. Try it!â
Max told the security, âThese Women1 Security approached Alice.âPlease leave.â
Lana Parker was angry.âIâm an invited guest.â
troublemakers. Donât let are them in.â
Max laughed. âYou came in a taxi. Parker family wouldnât invite you. Lie better!â Alice showed her invitation to security. Max said, âThatâs fake.â Security checked it, surprised.âItâs real. Youâre Miss Alice, right?â
Alice nodded. Security returned the invitation. Max grabbed it. âImpossible! You forged it!â Was it because of Jack? Did the Parker family disrespect the Garcia family by inviting this woman? Ethan and the Windham family arrived. Ethan went to Alice.
âYou came. Stay by my side.â
Alice crossed her arms. I didnât come because of you.â
Chloe came over, her eyes filled with jealousy at Aliceâs dress. Sheâd wanted that dress, but Ethan said it was unavailable. Did he give it to Alice to appease her?
Chloe said sweetly, âSister Alice, without Big Brother, you wouldnât be here.â Why was this Woman still around?
Finn glared at Ethan.âBig Brother, why did you let Alice come? Shouldnât we be together as a family?â
