Classroom.
The next day, Alicia arrived for class with Winnie, only to be blocked at the door by Nicole.
It was obvious Nicole was picking a fight on purpose.
Alicia thought Nicole was seriously unhingedâmaybe even beyond help.
âDid you sneak off to see Clayton behind my back? You homewrecker!â Nicole jabbed a finger at Aliciaâs face, her voice carrying through the entire lecture hall. âFirst you tried to seduce Tyrone, and now youâre after Clayton? Well, let me tell youâClayton is nothing but a dog the White family keeps around, loyal only to me. Try anything with him, and youâll regret it!â
Alicia didnât even blink, but Winnie rolled her eyes and stepped up, shoving Nicole aside. âThanks for the complimentâhomewreckers are supposed to be gorgeous, right? But Nicole, if weâre the homewreckers, then you must be the rabid dog in this story.â
Nicole glared at Winnie. âYou better stop riding her coattails, Winnie! Just wait and seeâwhen Tyrone loses everything, you two will be nothing.â
Alicia calmly pulled out her phone and sent a voice message to Clayton, forwarding exactly what Nicole had just said about him being the White familyâs loyal dog. âIâve passed your message along to Clayton,â she said, her voice icy.
Nicole froze for a moment, then tossed her hair, sneering. âSo what if you tattle? Clayton belongs to our family. He wonât listen to you! If I tell him to jump, he asks how high.â
She seemed utterly convinced that Clayton was nothing but a lapdog, loyal to the Whites without question. She and Jade bullied him constantly, treating him like a thorn in their side.
Clayton didnât reply to Aliciaâs message. He was probably angry.
Nicole gave a cold laugh. âSee? Heâs ignoring you. I call him names every day and he still comes running when I snap my fingers.â
Alicia shook her head, her voice cool and even. âYouâre awfully confident. I hope you stay the White familyâs golden girl forever.â She started walking into the classroom with Winnie.
Nicoleâs face twisted with rage. âWhatâs that supposed to mean? Say it to my face!â
Jade had once reassured her that the real heiress of the White family would never come back, so Nicole had always assumed sheâd be the one and only inheritor.
Rich Radiant and Over Him (Alicia and Vincent)
ï¤Chapter 295 The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind ï¤Chapter 347: Administering Drugs Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife ï¤Chapter 538: Unimaginable Trying to regain her composure, Nicole forced a laugh, and suddenly shouted to the entire class. âEveryone, look! This woman spent all four years of college as the mistress of Vincent, CEO of Lawson & Co. After graduation, she tried to climb even higherânow sheâs after my fiancé Tyrone!â
Aliciaâs hands clenched into fists as she glared at Nicole, furious.
She raised her phone, her voice ringing clear. âI just recorded everything you said. There are at least five hundred students in this lecture hall today.
Iâm calling the police. Iâll be reporting you for slander, defamation, and public humiliation.â She glanced at Winnie. âWinnie, call the police.â
Winnieâs lips curled into a smirk as she took out her phone and dialed, completely unfazed.
Nicole started to panicâshe was all bluster and no brains.
Alicia could guess what was going on: Nicole was causing trouble because Jade had put her up to it. Nicole was just Jadeâs attack dog.
Jade seemed to have some twisted feelings for Clayton, and now that sheâd found out Alicia had met him alone, she was losing it.
No matter. Alicia was happy to give Nicole and Jade a taste of their own medicine.
Slander and defamation might not seem like a big deal, but if Nicole couldnât back up her claims, sheâd have to apologize in front of everyone.
The more arrogant she acted now, the sweeter it would be to watch her eat her words later.
Nicole sputtered, âWinnie, you dare call the police? Iâm a White! Iâll make sure White Enterprises drops every contract with your family!â
Winnie just snorted, rolling her eyes. âOh, please. Isnât Reginald still recovering? Your little welcome-home banquet keeps getting postponed, right?
You havenât even officially been recognized by the Whites yet. As for White Enterprises, you donât get to call the shots. Donât flatter yourself.â
