* Chapter 370 Chapter 370 Alice nodded. âIâm ready.â
The girl stared incredulously at the student council president.âYou mean Alice is going to speak?
âYeah.â
âHow is that possible? Why is Alice speaking as the student representative? She has such a bad reputation here and barely anyone likes her. This decision The girl was clearly upset.
isnât fair.â
The student council president was a bit annoyed.âWho said Alice is the student representative?* âBut the school arranged for a student representative. Didnât you just tell Alice to prepare to speak?â
Didnât that mean Alice was the representative?
âAlice is speaking on behalf of a tech company.â
The student council president had just learned this. It was shocking. A freshman was already a top executive at a tech company.
surrounding The girl was shocked.âThatâs even less likely! Alice is just a freshman. How could that be?â
The students were also surprised, all expressing disbelief. After all, they were still students. No matter how impressive Alice was, it didnât seem likely sheâd be in such a position.
Alice checked the time and glanced at the president.âIâll âGo ahead. If you need anything, just ask.â
à¼
go ahead and prepare.
After Alice left, the girl was completely shaken.âHow could this be? Did the president make.a mistake?â
âNo mistake about it. Alice is a key player at the Maple Company, and I heard she had been working on Al projects.â
The president had just found out too and was still processing the shock.
The girl was amazed.âIs this the tech company thatâs been making waves recently?â
Sheâd even thought about applying to the Maple Company when she graduated.
Lana spoke up from the side.âNot only that, Alice is also a shareholder in the Maple Company, and her yearly dividends are pretty substantial. Once the company goes public, sheâll be financially set for life.â
Mary added, âThatâs right, Aliceâs background isnât bad either. Sheâs the daughter of the Welch family in New York and was the top scorer in the college entrance exams. Now that sheâs doing so well with her startup, in no time, she will be a multimillionaire.â
The classmates around all took a deep breath and showed expressions of envy.
A multimillionaire? Just like that?
While most of them were still relying on family support, Alice was already set for life.
Lana glanced at the girl with a sarcastic tone.âYou guys used to say Alice was just a kept woman 11:55 99.7%

The girl was fuming with jealousy but dared not respond, Lana and Mary exchanged * look, look, enjoying the chaos chaos they had stirred.
Alice reached the front, and saw her seat in the center, but didnât sit there. She casually took a seat elsewhere. She glanced over her speech. She was already prepared.
âAlice, get up. Thatâs not your seat,â
Max strutted over, her attitude as arrogant as ever.
Alice looked up.âActually, itâs not yours either.â
âItâs not mine, but itâs my sisterâs seat. Sheâs a guest speaker today, representing her company. Unlike some people who just use men to get ahead, my sister is a powerhouse woman.â
Max spoke with pride and disdain.
Alice looked her up and down.âFrom the way you talk, I thought the one sitting here was you. Turns out itâs not. How funny. Your sister is a top socialite, but youâre just a criminal wearing an electronic ankle bracelet. Didnât you learn anything from her?â
Max hated it when people brought up her ankle bracelet. She snapped, âYou donât get to lecture me. Get out. This is my sisterâs seat, and you donât deserve it!â
Alice glanced at the nameplate on the desk. She hadnât noticed it earlier, but it read âJulia.â What a coincidence.
Jack would be here, too.
Max lowered her voice.âIâll tell you, my sister is working with the Wilson family on this project. Theyâll be collaborating with Jack a lot. You, on the other hand, are just a clueless little bird. How can you compare to my sister, who takes on work to ease menâs burden?â Alice hadnât realized the Garcia family and Wilson family were collaborating on this project.
She remembered Amberâs attitude toward Julia and felt a pang of sadness Alice stood up without acknowledging Max.
Just then, a group of sharply dressed business elites walked in, with Drake and school officials leading the way.
Alice spotted Jack in a dark blue suit, his tall figure standing out among the middleâaged men. He was hard to miss.
When Jack entered, all the girls around couldnât help but look at him.
What girl could resist such a handsome, elite man?
They whispered, wondering who he was.
Then, a stunning woman in a white suit walked up to Jack, smiling elegantly and standing by his side.
Alice watched as Julia stood beside Jack, looking every bit the perfect match.
Max beamed.âAlice, look how well my sister gets along with Jack! Someone like you, a smallâtown girl, actually thinks she has a chance with him?â
Max strutted over to Julia.âJulia, youâre finally here. Someone who shouldnât even be here shamelessly sat in your seat. I wonder what theyâre trying to do.â

< Chapter 370 Julia turned and smiled at Alice.âAh, Ms. Welch, Iâll have someone arrange another seat for âNo need.â
you.
Alice walked over.âMs. Garcia, how polite of you. But I wouldnât ask a guest to find me a seat. Please, take your seat.â
Juliaâs smile tightened as she turned to Jack.âJack, letâs go take our seats. The event is about to start.â
Jack walked straight up to Alice, glancing at her speech.âReady?â
âAlmost. Please, take a seat, Mr. Wilson.â
Alice gave him a meaningful glance and a composed smile.
Jackâs eyes flickered with a chill at her smile.
Julia quickly walked over, smiling.âJack, letâs...â
Jack ignored her, heading straight to the front row and sitting down.
Juliaâs seat was in the second row, a noticeable distance from the first. She had initially planned to walk over with Jack and naturally take the seat beside him.
After all, everyone here was sharp enough to notice how close she seemed to Jack, so no one would dare try to take her seat.
But now, that chance was gone.
Alice glanced at Julia.âMs. Garcia, please, take a seat.â
Max snapped, âAlice, whatâs your problem? You have no seat, and youâre acting like you have the right to boss my sister around?â
âWho said I had no seat?â
Max sneered.âYouâre probably sitting by the entrance, just playing the role of a receptionist,â
Julia tried to act gracious.âMs. Welch, why donât you sit with me?â
Alice noticed the mocking smile on Maxâs face and felt an uncomfortable twinge in her heart.
She smiled faintly.âNo need.â
Without another word, Alice walked directly to Jackâs side and sat in the vacant seat next to him.
Juliaâs smile immediately faded as she watched Aliceâs actions.
Was Alice openly challenging her?
Did Alice even know that the Wilson family was responsible for her parentsâ deaths?
