Chapter 421 Constion


    "Fine. It''s my fault. But, I really appreciate your courage. What we should do next is..."


    Thompson stood up and walked towards Alice slowly. Then, he whispered something in her ear that


    would probably send chills down her spine.


    Alice patiently listened, her eyes wide in shock. What Thompson said was cruel.


    Sadly, her love for Jacob was now gone. All that was left in her heart was resentment. Well, hate is the


    mostplicated thing in the world.


    Alice wanted to see Jacob suffer with her own eyes. She would pay to see him live in misery, hoping


    that he would get the punishment he deserved.


    "Let''s do it. But before anything else, make sure that nothing goes wrong. I don''t want to hear from him


    again!" she said while ring at Thompson as if he was the one who had wronged her. At the thought


    of Jacob being tortured, a sly smile tugged the corner of her mouth, making her look devilish.


    Thompson shuddered as he looked at her. Although the weather was scorching hot, Alice''s icy cold


    words gave him chills. This is probably what people mean when they say "Nobody knows how much I


    hate you except myself."


    "Wow! I didn''t know you''re this heartless. Honestly, I thought you''d hesitate at first. Guess I shouldn''t


    mess around with women in the future." Thompson felt amazed by her determination, but at the same


    time, he was starting to be wary of her.


    It is astonishing how a woman can turn her love into hatred when betrayed. Also, how jealousy can


    intensify it.


    Alice was that kind of person. If she could not get what she wanted, nobody could have it as well. She


    would rather destroy it than let go.


    "Why? Are you scared?" she asked with a sinister smile.


    "Well,pared to what you''ve done before, this is nothing. Don''t act so surprised," she added with a


    smile as she put down her coffee on the table.


    The café where they were at the moment was elegant and well-adorned with fancy decorations. Alice


    appreciated it very well being a petty bourgeoisie herself.


    Jacob had thought her a lot. In fact, her taste was influenced by him. If it were not for him, she would


    not have learned so many things.


    Ironically, one of the things that he had taught her was hatred. Not only that, but he had also taught her


    how to fly, even though he was the one who cut her wings in the end.


    Alice still could not ept it. They were so happy when they were together, but Jacob suddenly


    decided that he no longer loved her.


    All of a sudden, he believed that it was time to say goodbye. He left just like that, as though she never


    mattered. That was the reason why it was very difficult for Alice to let go and move on.


    That was probably what made them different between each other. They were not on the same page,


    yet Alice did not n on being reconciled with him.


    Her suffering became her motivation for revenge. Since Jacob made things difficult for her, she would


    make him get to taste his own medicine and let him never live peacefully. That was all in her mind right


    now.


    Of course, everyone was aware that she was up to something, including Jacob himself. When he broke


    up with her, he became kinder to her. However, sometimes, she felt like he deliberately turned a blind


    eye to her, as if he did not care at all.


    That is the saddest feeling in the world. Even if you beg, you still cannot attract an ounce of attention


    from the person you care about the most. There is nothing else you can do, not even if youmit


    suicide in front of him. Even if you still try to win him back, sad to say but, he has already erased you


    from his world.


    Alice''s biggest problem was that she loved to do meaningless things.


    Well, to begin with, she never thought things through, whether it was meaningful or not. Regardless of


    the answer, she wanted to attract Jacob''s attention.


    "That''s exactly why I like you. Ha-ha! Well, we wouldn''t be allies in the first ce if you weren''t like this.


    Don''t worry. I know what happened between you and Jacob. This whole thing was his fault. I will


    support you on whatever you want to do."


    Thompson could not stop chuckling. Meanwhile, Alice did not say anything.

    What she needed right now was a man like him who would encourage her to achieve her goals. After


    all, she was full of wrath that was yet to be unleashed. Thest thing she wanted was a person who


    would get in her way.


    Alice had to admit that she had sacrificed a lot to get back at Jacob. She did not only sacrifice her


    youth but also her dignity. She even lost herself in the process.


    Yes, she could not remember who she was before. The only thing she knew was that she had


    changed. In fact, she was much more sophisticated than before.


    Nobody knew what she was up to. If anyone did, they would definitely say that she had gone insane.


    It was true, though. That was actually the reason why she had the courage to do her revenge.


    Well, her sanity at the moment was not important. The most important thing was that she finally had the


    nerve to follow her heart.


    Since she loathed Jacob to the core, she would make sure to send him to hell!


    "By the way, how are you and Jonathan doing? Let me remind you that he''s also a shark. Don''t fall in


    love with him, or else you''ll suffer. Everything you''ve done will be futile."


    Thompson persuaded Alice. Although he knew that she was smart enough to judge a man''s nature, he


    still felt the need to tell her what he thought.


    Whether she would ept it or now, it was not his business but hers.


    Ever since they had be allies, Thompson had developed a sense of camaraderie with her. For


    some reason, he felt that it was his duty to inform her of the things that he had learned.


    "I know, I know. I''m well aware that it''s just a game. Besides, I think the reason he wants to be with me


    is because I''m Jacob''s ex-girlfriend."


    When Alice spoke, she was calm, yet her smile was frightening.


    The corners of Thompson''s mouth twitched. He was at a loss for words. It turned out that Alice knew


    everything, but she still agreed to be with Jonathan. For some reason, Thompson felt that that made


    her even more formidable.


    "We just take what we need from each other, so I can understand. Besides, we both know that we''re


    just using each other, and there''s nothing wrong with that. Jonathan, you, and I, we''re all the same,


    aren''t we?"


    Thompson was stunned by the level of sarcasm in Alice''s words. It turned out that she was not who he


    thought she was. She had survived dangers and was now on the way to achieving her goal.


    "I thought you were in denial, so I never thought about it. But now I get it, you''re actually cleverer than


    you seem. Ha-ha!" Thompson burst intoughter, yet he felt like Alice was bing a stranger in his


    mind.


    He thought he knew her well. However, the longer they went along with each other, the stranger she


    became.


    For him, Alice was just a pawn. Could it be that he was a pawn to her as well?


    "Anyway, I''ve heard that Jonathan will invite Jacob in his grand wedding ceremony. Have you known


    about this?" Thompson asked while ying the emerald ring on his thumb with a cunning look in his


    eyes.


    "Really? I haven''t heard about it yet, but I can assure you that I have no objection on this. Inviting


    Jacob is actually a good idea. I want him to see me be the bride of the person he hates the most."


    Alice''s tone was calm, yet danger was apparent in her words. Truth be told, she hated Jacob now as


    much as she loved him back then. Well, perhaps Jacob did not care.


    However, Alice wanted to show him who she was now.


    In this way, she would show him that he now meant nothing to her. Not only that, but it would also show


    that Jacob was not as good as the man she was about to marry.


    "Now that you agree with my n, I''m going to give you a grand gift so you can get married with glory.


    Just think of it as your dowry."


    Thompson looked at Alice, the smile in his eyes wide in anticipation. The gift would serve as a


    constion. It would seem that she had made a right decision to have him as an ally.


    "Sure. Anyway, I wonder if my revenge is worth betting on my own life."


    Alice narrowed her eyes slightly. For some reason, coffee made her feel a little drunk. Perhaps it was


    because she did not want to sober up that she felt that way?


    "It doesn''t matter. You can divorce him anytime. It''s just a mere formality. Besides, you got me."


    Thompson smiled, his deep dimples puckered on his cheeks.


    The emerald ring on his hand shone the green light. For Alice, it meant opportunity.
