Chapter 32
Alice was nestled in his arms, looking a bit dazed. Jack looked down, only able to see her smooth forehead, with
damp hair falling between them, the moisture spreading and making her clothes. slightly see-through. His throat
tightened. He gently released her.“The clothes are new and unworn; you can make do with the shoes for a day.”
Alice noticed the clothes he had left by the entrance and blushed, “Thanks.” Jack, seeing her unguarded
expression, couldn't help but lecture, “Don’t open the door at night.” “Because | know it's definitely you
knocking,” she said, her gaze steady. Jack met her eyes and quickly looked away, awkwardly adding, “Lock the
door.” Alice stood at the doorway, a slight smile on her lips as she glanced back at the unfamiliar room; she was
ready to start a new chapter in her life.
While charging her phone in bed, she discovered dozens of missed calls, almost all Noah. There was also a call
from Luke, but it only rang three times before hanging up. She saw messages from Noah:“Alice, where are you?
Don’t be angry, chome, I'll make Luke apologize!” “You should know that in New York, you can’t hide for
long. If Ethan finds out, the consequences will be dire.”
“Alice, we're family! Can't we forgive small conflicts?”
Reading these messages, her expression turned icy. There was no way she could forgive even at little.
The next day at school, Alice took a taxi with Jack.
She turned to him, “I'll head to class first.”
Jack watched her safely enter the school before looking away. A luxury car pulled up beside them, and Andrew
leaned out, “The Welch family went crazy looking for you last night. Alice wouldn't have escaped if she hadn't
ran into us. The Welch family wasn’t to be underestimated. Jack pursed his lips, seemingly deep in thought.
Meanwhile, Alice headed straight to the classroom, and screams erupted.“Alice’s here! She’s the one who did the
twelve-hit combo!”
“What's her connection to King?!”
“Idol, can we take photos together?”
Alice was taken aback by the crowd and awkwardly nodded, “Sure.”
Suddenly, a bunch of people surrounded her, asking for autographs. The classroom entrance was bustling with
excitement, packed with people.
Chloe had just arrived outside the classroom and, seeing Alice being treated like a star, felt a surge of jealousy.
She had over a hundred thousand fans online, far more famous than Alice; these clueless people!

Unable to stand it, Chloe stepped out.“Alice, where were you last night? Noah was worried sick. You shouldn't risk
your safety just because you're angry.”
Alice knew the act was coming.
A minion said, “She’s ungrateful! She thinks she’s superior after winning.”

No one cares. “Do | know

“Alice, how dare you speak to Chloe like that! She worried about you all night! You were in the wrong, and others

Chloe off at school today, but he felt compelled to come, knowing Alice would be here.
He hadn't slept a wink last night. She had forced him into isolation; what was that about? Alice, seeing Luke,
wasn't surprised.”Isn’t Chloe often out all night with you guys?”
Chloe's eyes welled up.“Alice, how can you say that?”
“Alice, don’t talk nonsense, Chloe is my sister! Apologize to her!”
Alice's tone was cold.“She started it. | learned it from her.”
Chloe's voice was choked with tears.”l... | didn’t mean it, you misunderstood.” Luke, who had been holding back
his temper, suddenly lost control, “Alice, look at yourself! Were you with that doctor last night? It's obvious!”
Alice who had been holding back his temper, suddenly lost control.
After Luke spoke, he immediately regretted it, but with so many people watching, he didn’t explain.
Alice found it laughable, “That has nothing to do with you.” She turned and walked toward the classroom.
“Stop! What do you mean it has nothing to do with us? Your wings are getting too strong; you think you're

“I know. You care for her, but she doesn’t appreciate it.” Luke was irritated.“Alice’s attitude is terrible; she

happy?”
A hint of mockery flashed in Chloe's eyes; Alice had already started distancing herself, and he was just now

This was a good thing for her. She changed the subject, “What are you planning to do about that school doctor?”
“Of course, that man has to pay the price!”

Luke headed straight to the principal's office, this matter needed to be addressed.
After achieving her goal, Chloe returned to the classroom. As she passed Alice, she whispered, “Luke went to the
principal.”
Alice’s expression changed; she had indeed brought trouble to Jack. She stood up, but just then, the English
teacher started class, and Alice had to sit back down.

answered calmly.“What’s wrong?”
“Luke went to the principal. You might be in trouble, but don’t worry, Ill explain.” “Kid, don’t meddle in adult
matters!” His voice was confident, almost arrogant. She almost thought she misheard him; usually, this man was
quiet and aloof, very reserved. Yet, for sreason, she found herself believing him.
After hanging up, she returned to her seat, feeling reassured as she reviewed her notes. With just over a month
until the college entrance exams, she was almost free.
After school, Alice packed her bag, intending to head to the infirmary. However, she spotted her second brother,
Noah, at the classroom door, holding a giant stuffed bear.
Alice halted in her tracks.
Noah approached. “Alice, you performed brilliantly in the revival match. | got you a gift. Congratulations, and
good luck in the finals.”
