Chapter 323
Alice’s face was flushed. His message: [I don’t agree to the breakup. I'll keep waiting.]
Alice exited the chat, looking out the window. Her hard-won peace was shattered. She'd thought Huo Xiucheng
had hidden his identity and wasn’t sincere. But he’d publicly denied the engagement with Julia. Alice saw Julia
burst into tears.
“Lana Parker said, “Alice, what's going on between you and your boyfriend... ex-boyfriend?”
“It’s complicated.”
“But | think he still likes you. You didn’t see the way he looked at you- like a lost puppy, begging for your
attention.” Lana Parker thought that if it were her, she couldn't stay mad at such a handsman.
Alice's face flushed. “Don’t talk nonsense. | haven't decided what to do.” Jack and his mother had clarified the
engagement rumor. She'd been tricked by Julia. But she was still angry about Jack hiding his identity; it felt like a
betrayal.
Lana Parker linked arms with Alice.“Ignore him for a while. Let him feel the pain of longing. Teach him a lesson.”
“You're right. | was always chasing him.” This time, Alice wanted him to pursue her. “Besides, there are plenty of
good guys. Many have asked if you're single. I'll spread the word; you'll have plenty of suitors. Don’t put all your
eggs in one basket.”
Alice felt better.“You're right.” She wasn't sure about her feelings, but she had a lot to do and couldn't let one
man derail her.
Wang Yang, in the passenger seat, glanced at the rearview mirror, a plan forming. After Alice’s car left, Jack
looked away. Julia said stubbornly, “You heard everything I said.”

> Jack checked his phone; Alice hadn't replied. He was annoyed.“l gave you enough face. If it weren't for you
stealing my phone to call Alice, the Garcia family would be in trouble,” “But I've known you longer than she has!
Why? What does Alice have that | don’t?” Julia lost her,
composure.
Jack’s gaze was cold.”Because | like Alice. No one can compare to the woman | love.” It was that simple.
Jack got into his car and left. Julia sat on the ground and cried. She didn’t understand what Alice had that she
didn’t. She was the top socialite in Washington; she was superior in looks, status, and ability!
Alice returned to the dorm and looked at Jack’s messages. He'd been messaging her, but she hadn't replied. It
was annoying.
The next day, Alice saw the leader. She said
impassively, “Something?”
*Your attitude towards the Garcia family was too strong. They've been sponsors for years.”
“Didn’t you see them harassing my team members?”
The leader hesitated. “It’s always been like that. Nothing happened before; there were many people around.”

Alice said coldly, “I don’t care what happened before. I'm the captain now, and | won't let my team) members
attend those sleazy dinners!”
“Alice, you have to follow instructions, not do things your way!”
“The previous captain was obedient, laundering money for the Garcia family. Were you involved?”
The leader's face changed.”Nonsense! | wasn’t involved! That was Zhang Sen's personal action.” Alice said
nothing, but her gaze was intense. The leader stood up.“You can’t offend the Garcia family. How will we work
together in the future?”
“I have dirt on the Garcia family; they won't refuse to cooperate. Even if they withdraw funding, it won't affect
the team.”
The leader left. Lana Parker asked, “Did the leader scold you? Everyone saw what happened last night. A senior
said it was even worse before.”
Alice looked around.”l don’t care what happened before. As long as I'm captain, | won't let you attend those
dinners.”
Lana Parker applauded.“Great! Captain, you're awesome!”
“Also, Wang Yang is the vice-captain. He'll lead training when I'm not around.” Alice noticed Wang Yang's skills
were the best after her.
Wang Yang smiled.“Let’s work hard for the national championship next year!” Alice felt surge of determination.
She would win the championship herself. Alice trained for a while, then left. Wang Yang followed her.“You don’t
have classes thi afternoon? Going to the gym?”
“No, | have something to do.” Alice was going to a meeting at Maple Leaf. Wang Yang hesitated. “Let's
gym later.”

“Okay, we'll arrange it.” Alice left, not thinking about whether Wang Yang was the
her past life. She liked Jack.
At the school gate, Alice saw Mary and Ethan getting out of a car.

Mary said, “What a coincidence.” Alice noticed Mary wasn’t doing well. She smiled. “Yes, it is.““I'll go to the
dorm.”
Ethan held a dessert box. “Take this to the dorm.”
Mary coldly refused. “I'm dieting. No sweets.”
Ethan stood there awkwardly.
Alice watched,

Ethan approaching.”Something?”
“This dessert, you eat it. | don’t like sweets.”
Alice smirked.“You think I'm a trash can?”
It's a limited-edition cake. You used to askto buy it for you.” Ethan showed her the cake.
Alice laughed, took the cake, and slapped Ethan in the face.
