Chapter 242
Vivian never foresaw that Alice would demand money from them and dere her intention not to
divorce Daniel…
“What… What is happening here?
“Is she inadvertently causing harm to herself?” Vivian mused.
“Miss Doyle, I…” Vivian Hand stared at Alice Doyle in disbelief.
“Shut up, I have not granted you the privilege to speak! Could you please conceal your intentions and
step aside?” Alice interjected, saying.
Though her face disyed a facade ofposed amusement, a distinct undercurrent of tension
emanated.
Vivian involuntarily gulped, finding it hard to process what unfolded before her eyes.
She thought, “Could Alice indeed be nning a counterattack, aiming to overpower me?”
Daniel, at this moment, was not perturbed that Alice requested money. In that, he contemted that if
she genuinely could not ama ss the funds, she would not seek a divorce. Thus, he nned to avoid
payment…

That way… he could ensure that she would never leave him!
Nevertheless, Alice deciphered his unspoken thoughts. Her lips curved slightly as she calmly
expounded, “Mr. Kaur, if the funds are not transferred… I’ll merely retain the title of ‘Mrs. Kaur. But, I
would never meet you again and would not fulfill any marital duties.
“Ponder over it carefully. Is it worthwhile to allow a female entertainer, whom you’ve both guarded
against and belittled, to im the esteemed status as your noble spouse?
“Were I in your position, I would certainlyply. Then, continue pretending to be financially strained
and find a genuinely naive and sweet youngdy to engage in this intriguing game with your entire
family.”
“This isn’t a game,” Daniel interjected, saying. His expression showed a blend ofplexity.
“Not a game? Initially, you doubted me, believed I am after your family’s wealth, deemed me a plotter,
and sought to test me, correct?” Alice queried with a smile.
She wrestled with her emotions, preventing them from surging forth.
“I…” Daniel stammered. He was at a loss for words.
Indeed, he had initially held reservations about her.
“It’s alright. Your suspicions were valid. I am a plotter. I’ve been involved with numerous men… those
rumors I was entangled with before meeting you were true. I’ve been intimate with them. And on each
asion, I demandedpensation!” Alice said.
Patting his shoulder, Alice intentionally added, “Yet none were as valuable as you. In the end, I reaped
the rewards, didn’t
I?”
“Don’t depict yourself in such a demeaning light,” Daniel insisted, saying. He understood she was not
that sort of person.
It had been him who had initially erred, his preemptive skepticism setting the stage for a series of
falsehoods.
“I won’t phrase it like that. Don’t you think so too?” Alice co olly chuckled as she spoke. A hint of
destion threaded through herughter.
“Daniel, you might still be immersed in games, but I’m not! Right now, I only covet money. I no longer
desire you. Don’t hold yourself in such high regard!” Alice stated.
With that said, she linked arms with Theo, yfully evading Daniel.
The absence of Daniel’s voice finally triggered Alice’s tears to flow uncontrobly.
However, she hesitated to wipe them away, anxious the duo behind her would notice.
If that happened, her earlier act would lose its purpose.
Inside the elevator, Alice’s legs weakened entirely. She stood there, copsing to the ground like a
deted balloon.
“Alice,” Theo called out as he promptly supported her, “Don’t cry! Don’t shed tears for that scoundrel!
None of them deserve you; they’re all vile!”
Amidst her tears, Alice managed a smile, observing Theo’s efforts to console her, though she could not
utter a word. She held her chest, and as the suffocating ache somewhat subsided, she articted,
“Theo, I want to enjoy a seafood

“Let’s indulge in a seafood buffet. We’ll pick your favorite spot,” Theo agreed, saying.
“Good, invite everyone to join us and get them to prepare gifts for me! Let’smemorate the day I got
cheated on!” Alice responded.
