Alice remembered the tampered stationery; the butler was likely responsible. In her past life, he'd always sided
with Chloe, whispering lies about her to her brothers.
She kicked open the door.“This house was bought by my parents. I'm the only one who can decide not to come
back. You're a servant; remember your place!”
The butler was surprised by her change. “Miss Alice, this was Master Ethan's order. | was just following
instructions.”
Entering the hall, Luke cdown, his face beaming. “Alice, you're back! I told the kitchen to prepare your
favorite dishes. Let's have dinner; it's been a while.”
“No need. Where's my acceptance letter?” Her tone was cold.
Luke gave a wry smile. In the study. Cwith me.”
She followed, but he went to her old room.“Alice, your room is ready. Chloe moved back to hers. If anything's
wrong, just letknow.”
Alice looked around her room, her expression calm. No need. | won't be back.” Luke sighed. This is your parents’
house. This is your room; no one can replace you.” Alice went to the study.“Let’s get to the point. She wasn’t
swayed by small gestures. Luke showed her the acceptance letter.“You're brilliant; you got into Harvard
University. Mom and Dad would be so proud.”
“Don’t use Mom and Dad as an excuse; it’s disgusting.”
Seeing that the email had been opened, her face changed.“Why did you open my email?” should open it.” “Alice,

Alice showed him the email.“It’s clearly been opened. Are you “Butler, chere!” Luke, also noticing, was
puzzled; he hadn't opened the email. Luke coldly asked, “Besides me, who else has been in the study?”
The butler glanced at the email.”Master Two, it’s just an acceptance letter. As long as nothing is missing...”
Alice glared at him. “Did you open it?”
“I was curious about the acceptance letter. | just opened it briefly.”
Alice didn’t believe him. Chloe was likely involved!“Check the security footage.” She wouldn't let
this go.
Luke nodded.“Alice, I'll investigate.”
Alice’s gaze was cold; she didn’t need anyone's investigation. She would handle this herself.
The butler panicked. No need. It was me. Blme.”
“Old Butler, the footage hasn't even been checked, and you're confessing? Who are you covering for?” Alice was
furious. Since he was provoking her, she wouldn't hold back. Luke noticed the butler’s strange behavior. “Tell the
truth. Who else was in the study?”

Those few words weighed heavily on Luke. She was “used” to it.
He trembled with anger at the opened email.
Soon, Chloe and the butler entered; Chloe knew what happened.
Chloe, eyes red, said pitifully, “Brother Two, it's my fault. | was curious about the letter; | just opened it briefly.

acceptance
Luke slumped into a chair, speechless. He felt a wave of disgust towards Chloe's feigned remorse. Would he
have dismissed it as insignificant before, believing that Alice shouldn't mind since Chloe apologized?
He felt cold dread. His indulgence had emboldened Chloe and the butler.
Luke's face hardened.“Chloe, apologize to Alice!”
Chloe turned to Alice, feigning weakness. “Alice, I'm sorry. My score is canceled. I'm envious of your acceptance
letter. Don’t be angry, okay?”
“No,” Alice said coldly.
Chloe gritted her teeth.“If you're not angry, I'll do anything!” She'd only opened the letter; it was intentional-to
spite Alice. A few tears and apologies would fix it.
“You said so yourself.” Alice slapped Chloe with all her might.
Chloe was stunned.“Why did you hit me?”

Luke’s hand tightened.“Chloe, you said Alice could do anything if she wasn’t angry. Keep your word!”
Chloe was stunned. She'd only been being polite!
The butler tried to pull Alice away.“Miss Alice, why are you hitting her? She didn’t touch anything. Why are you
so petty? It was just an acceptance letter!”
