Chapter 333

Hearing this, Alice halted and turned to face Brian. “Mr. Miller, is there something else?”

“You… Have you ever had any cosmetic work done?” Brian asked outright.

Alice shook her head. “No… I haven’t undergone any cosmetic procedures”

“Alright then. You can go,” Brian nodded, signaling for Alice to continue.

As Alice walked away, Brian’s hand rested on his chin, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Candice had mentioned that Alice bore the closest resemblance to Sabrina when she was younger, and Brian shared that sentiment.

That’s why he wanted to verify whether Alice had undergone any cosmetic changes.

If she hadn’t, the remarkable likeness in their appearances was quite intriguing.

After leaving the CEO’s office, Alan went over to chat with Brian’s secretary for a while.

Alice strolled alone toward the parking lot.

Before she even reached the area with the nanny car, the silhouette of a woman emerged behind her.

It was Sabrina.

At that very moment, Sabrina’s arms were crossed, her gaze ice-cold as she fixed her stare on Alice, her face dripping with disdain. “Alice, stealing a man might be one thing, but now you’re after snat ching resources?

“Aren’t you afraid of causing a stir? You think you can survive in the entertainment industry with these tactics?”

Alice lightly grazed her chin with her fingers, her eyes slightly narrowing, a glint of frostiness within them. Her tone matched the chill as she countered, “How many times do I have to repeat myself? Mr.

Miller arranged this ad. If you think it’s resource-snat ching, then consider it Mr. Miller helping me seize resources. If you’ve got an issue, take it up with Mr. Miller, not me!”

Alice purposely echoed Brian’s tone, stretching out her words, “Oh, well, Miss Clark, you always have your eyes on me. Do you also fancy the Blue Enchantress ad, huh?”

Sabrina’s thoughts were rattled, her anger intensifying. “I’m the daughter of the Clark family. I can get whatever I want! I’m not like you, a woman born in the gutter!

“A cheap woman like you, who clings to her looks to keep a man. Don’t you find that pathetic?”

Alice gave her ear a tap; she’d heard these words so many times that her ears were practically calloused. Did this woman ever get tired?

“Miss Clark…” Alice began, her tone frosty. “Repeating the same insults over and over only exposes your lack of beauty and confidence.

“Someone like you, I don’t detest, but rather pity. Because what I have, you might never experience in your entire pitiful life.

Those words struck a nerve with Sabrina. She was on the verge of eruption. “Alice, you wretched woman, how dare mock me like this!”

you Alice hit the nail on the head; she’d consistently labeled Alice a cun ning woman because she fixated on Alice’s appearance.

Once, they shared the same looks, but a fire accident had scarred her, disfiguring her.

And yet Alice could flaunt her natural beauty.

What was this?

It was so unjust!

Watching Sabrina fume with anger, Alice let out a cold chuckle. She gave Sabrina’s shoulder a casual pat. “Miss Clark, don’t get riled up so easily. People like you aren’t worth my taunts.”

With that said, Alice’s gaze suddenly turned icy. She firmly pressed Sabrina’s shoulder. Her expression was reminiscent of a demon king emerging from the depths of hell.

“But I hope you won’t keep provoking me time and time again. And don’t you dare sna tch my kids! I’m not a fan of taking things from others, but what’s mine can’t be stolen!

“You’re right. I’m no pampered rich girl like you. Without the chains of your privileged upbringing, I’ll use my own methods to knock down anyone who tries to bully me!

“If you’re uncertain about the methods I’ll employ, come and take a shot. I won’t let you down!”

With that, Alice no longer spared Sabrina a glance. She marched straight to her nanny car, swung the door open, and hopped in.

Initially, Sabrina had aimed to confront Alice, to wield her status as a weapon against her. But now, Alice had turned the tables by issuing threats.

Sabrina quivered with rage, her gaze heavy with animosity as she stared in the direction Alice had vanished. She was almost like a wild beast on the verge of unleashing a furious roar.

No, she had to devise a plan!

She had to find a way to handle Alice!

Otherwise, Alice’s background would inevitably be revealed!

And when that happened, the Clark family members would witness Alice’s brilliance and likely choose her instead!

Sabrina was determined. She absolutely couldn’t sever her ties with the Clark family! She couldn’t let the promising life she had within her grasp slip away!

After Alan got into the car, he wasted no time in taking out the contract for Alice to review.

“The guy you’ll be partnering with is Bruce, just back from abroad. He’s got a decent image, but his reputation isn’t exactly pristine,” Alan explained.

But Alice didn’t need Alan’s introduction to recognize the man.

After all, she had once interacted with him.

“Better keep your distance from guys like Bruce. I know you won’t be unfaithful while married, but that doesn’t mean they won’t try to stir up trouble,” Alan advised.

Alice gave a slight nod. She had considered explaining things to Alan, but when she thought about how Bruce might react upon seeing her, she figured it didn’t matter if she didn’t.

Following dinner at the Kaur family’s residence, Alice went in search of Daniel.

In the study, Daniel was engrossed in reading some documents.

The lighting cast a soft halo on his composed yet refined features.

It was said that men were most attractive when they were engrossed in their work. Looking at Daniel now, Alice couldn’t help but silently agree.

She stood there quietly, refraining from interrupting him immediately.

It wasn’t until Daniel noticed her presence that he looked up, his gaze tender as he inquired, “Hey, Alice. What’s going on?”

Alice took a deep breath, then walked over to him and took a seat across from him.

She nibbled on her lip slightly and began, “Daniel, I have an ad shoot tomorrow, and my co-star is Bruce. About Bruce… we have a bit of history, but it’s not the usual ex-boyfriend situation.”

They were a married couple, and she was shooting an ad together with someone like Bruce. She felt it was necessary to explain.

Just part of being a wife, she figured.

Besides, she didn’t want him getting overly jealous to the point of sending a group of people to the shoot location.

“Got it. I trust you,” Daniel said calmly as he looked at Alice.

Josh had already informed him that Alice’s previous relationships were not genuine. They were all fabricated He believed her.

“Also… there’s a scene tomorrow where Bruce and I have to do a staged kiss. Thought I should give you a heads-up,” Alice continued.

At those words, Daniel’s brow furrowed, a shadow of concern crossing his eyes. “Staged kiss?”

Alice let out a deep sigh and nodded. “Yeah, it’s about finding the right angle to make it look like a kiss is happening, even though nothing is actually going on.”

Daniel blurted out, “Can’t you sk ip the kissing scene?”

Honestly, even if it’s staged, he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of jealousy.

Alice cupped her face in her hands, gently shaking her head. “The theme of Blue Enchantress revolves around love. Mr. Miller agreed to the staged kiss, taking into account my married status. I can’t really refuse at this point.
