Chapter 379 Menu For the next few days, Alice quietly kept an eye on Chloeâs movements.
Chloe had come to school a few times to show off her jewelry and luxury items, but she hadnât been seen at school again after that.
Alice suspected it was mostly because Chloe was avoiding Garrett.
When Garrett found out Chloe was getting married, he seemed to fall into a daze.
Itâs trueâwhat you canât have always feels like the best.
Chloe knew how to dangle a carrot in front of a man.
Alice thought Chloe might get a little too smug and head to the dealership, but to her surprise, Chloe never went.
The last time Chloe had gone to the dealership late at night, no one knew what was discussed inside, but Chloeâs father never showed Chloe only met with her uncle.
up.
One thing was certain: Chloeâs uncle must have been in contact with Chloeâs father, and he surely knew about the car accident from years ago.
If they couldnât catch Chloeâs father, going after this uncle might work. But Alice thought catching Chloeâs father was still more useful.
Suddenly, Aliceâs phone buzzed with a message, âIâm watching you. I know what youâre planning.â Alice quickly traced the IP address of the message, but it turned out to be from a virtual number. Whoever sent this was clearly prepared.
Alice didnât dwell on it too much, but that evening, while walking on the school grounds with Mary and the others, she received another message, âSo many people on the field... Alice stopped and looked around. There were indeed quite a few people.
But she had no idea who had sent the message.
âWhatâs wrong?â Mary asked.
Mary noticed the change in Aliceâs expression.
Alice shook her head, not saying anything, and put her phone back in her bag. This wasnât the place to talk.
âAlice, wait.â
Suddenly, a few girls walked over.
Alice recognized them instantly. These girls had deliberately made things difficult for her at the seminar a couple of days ago.
Alice heard that one of them was the girlfriend of the student council president. Alice stopped and looked at them.âWhat is it?â
âAlice, youâre so cruel. Weâre all classmates. Why did you have the school discipline our dorm leader?â

< Chapter 379 Menu âYeah, our dorm leader was just talking casually, and everyone says stuff like that. Why should she get disciplined?â
Alice figured out their purpose in approaching her.
She replied calmly, âI never asked the school to discipline anyone, and I donât even know how the school handled the rumorâ
mongering issue.â
Mary spoke up, âI know. The school seemed to have disciplined the one who took the photos and the one who posted them.
Those two were troublemakersâone took photos and spread them, and the other wrote and spread lies. They should be disciplined.â
Mary didnât name names but implied that the two culprits had been punished. If the dorm leader was punished, it would be either because she was the one who took and spread the photos or the one who wrote the posts. She was hardly innocent.
The three girls who had come charging over fell silent.
The girlfriend of the news agency president looked at Alice, pitifully saying, âAlice, I didnât spread any rumors. I just took a photo by accident and sent it to my boyfriend. I didnât know he would write that nonsense.â
Alice said, âBut thatâs not what you said at the seminar.â
Alice wasnât kind and stupid. She coldly responded, âSince you did this, you should take responsibility for the consequences.â
She felt that the other girl must have done this a few times before, considering how brazenly she spoke even in front of the principal.
The girl turned pale and apologized to Alice.âAlice, I was wrong. Please forgive me this time.â Her sudden action drew attention from the surrounding crowd.
Since Alice had become somewhat of a school celebrity, many students were watching, and the crowd was only growing.
âStop with the act.â
Lana shoved the girl away and loudly said, âEveryone at this school has been a victim of rumors at some point. Weâve all been worried about being slandered. I think the forums should have been dealt with long ago. At least now, those who spread rumors will be punished, and maybe itâll stop others from doing the same in the future.â
Mary added, âAnd the school disciplined the people who spread rumors. If you were disciplined, itâs because you did something wrong.â
âBut the dorm leader didnât mean mean any harm. Isnât this punishment too harsh?â
âDoesnât she deserve a second chance?â
Alice coldly shot back.âA second chance? Many girls have been filmed and had their photos posted on forums, with people claiming they were involved with wealthy men. This isnât the first time something like this has happened.â
A pretty girl nearby walked over and snorted, âThis isnât the first time. If they donât like someone, they spread rumors like this.â
The girl who had apologized apologized immediately shrank back and stayed silent.
Alice had expected this. She stared at the girl on the ground and said, âDonât try to play the guilt 08:35 100.0%
< Chapter 379 card here. You should apologize to me and to all the other girls youâve hurt with your lies.â âExactly. She uses her boyfriendâs position to do things like this.â
âBesides spreading nasty rumors, she even falsely accused others of stealing. She forced one girl to drop out of school.â
post Lana took out her phone, sarcastically saying, âHow about we take a picture of her and the school forum? Iâm sure a lot of people will come forward and expose her past deeds. After all, the public eye is sharp, so donât try this trick.â
The surrounding students were discussing it. The girl quickly got up and ran, clearly trying to avoid being caught on camera.
Lana put down her phone.âWhen they took photos of others, they said the news was free. But now, when itâs their turn, they run away.â
Alice smiled and said, âLetâs go.
Thereâs no point in walking walking anymore.â
The walk had lost its appeal.
Soon, Lana started a live stream, showing the campus forum, where many people were discussing the rumors.
Several people came forward to expose how they had been slandered by these three women.
âThe truth always comes out,â Alice thought.
Mary noticed Aliceâs distracted expression after she checked her phone.âWhatâs going on? You seem troubled.â
Alice said, âSomeoneâs been sending me harassing messages.â
Alice took out her phone and showed Mary the messages. Maryâs face darkened.âDid who it is?â
âA virtual number. Itâs being deliberately secretive.â
you find out Alice couldnât guess who it was, but it was probably someone who had a grudge against her. Anyone with half a brain could figure it out.
Alice didnât pay much attention to the harassing messages, as soon enough, Chloe and Finnâs wedding arrived.
Alice returned to the Welch family ahead of the wedding day.
saw a She that had the villa been redecorated with very âprincessâ vibe. Chloe acted like the head of the house, ordering the staff around to make sure everything was perfect for the wedding.
Alice walked in boldly, scoffing.âThis is such a small place. How can you call this an outdoor wedding? Didnât Finn get you a bigger venue?â
Chloe, visibly irritated, gritted her teeth.âYou know nothing. Itâs because the boss of the PZ Company doesnât like noisy places.
He prefers cozy spots like this.â
Alice thought, âThe elusive boss sure knows how to make excuses.â
Chloe went on, bragging, âMany families are coming because itâs the first time the boss of the PZ Company will publicly appear at my wedding. They all want to network with Ethan and attend my wedding. So a lot of wealthy people will be here.â

< Chapter 379 Menus Chloe finally felt like she she could could gloat.âEven Haley and and Aviana are coming.â
These rich women had never cared for her before, but now they were coming to her wedding. Alice raised an eyebrow.âItâs because youâre handling the AI project now. Theyâre only coming for the benefits, not because of you.â
âThatâs right. Ethan said this spot was originally for you, but since you didnât care about it, Iâll take your place.â
Chloeâs eyes gleamed with triumph. Finally, she was one step ahead of Alice. And at tomorrowâs wedding banquet, Chloe would make sure that Alice paid for the humiliation sheâd suffered at the Parker family.
She was determined to ruin Aliceâs reputation once and for all.
