Chapter 337
Alice watched Ethan’s grim expression, feeling a surge of satisfaction. This day had finally arrived. Chloe had
made a huge mess and embarrassed the family; Alice was curious to see what Ethan would do. He didn't
intervene. Chloe had made her own bed; let her lie in it.
After beating Chloe, Mrs. Yates stood up, refreshed, and began berating her.“You slut, you whorish homewrecker!
You dare seduce my son? You're not worthy!”
Chloe, seeing stars, couldn't speak.
Finn countered, “Who's seducing who? Your son raped my fiancée! We're not done with this!”
Garrett Yates, realizing the situation was dire, hid behind his mother. He hadn't expected Chloe to be two-timing
him.
Mrs. Yates, hands on her hips, yelled, “Fine, let's call the police! After Chloe got involved with my son, | forced
them to separate. You're treating her like a goddess? We Yates don’t need a son-in-law, and someone like Chloe
is beneath contempt!”
Finn's face burned; he wanted to ask Chloe what had happened, but she was unconscious. Mrs. Yates turned to

hated the Windhams. If the Windhams improved through the a Parkers, she'd never be rid of Chloe.
Mrs. Parker's face was ashen.
Mary spoke, “Aunt Yates, | broke up with Ethan. He's been harassing me. My aunt is kind, but she misjudged him;

Mrs. Parker's face turned green, but she dared not retort. She turned her anger on Ethan. Get these people out of
my party!” The Parkers needed to save face. Admitting a mistake and getting rid of the Windhams would avoid
gossip.
Ethan turned to Mrs. Parker, a throbbing headache starting. Everything had gone wrong.
Mrs. Parker ignored him. He couldn't even manage his own family?
Ethan looked at Alice, hopeful. Since she was close to Mary, perhaps she could intervene.
Alice blinked.“Why are you looking at me? Your ‘obedient’ little sister, Chloe, caused this mess. | didn’t undress
her.”
Ethan's eyes were bloodshot with anger; he regretted everything. He looked at Chloe, his tone cold.“She’s no
longer part of the Windham family. Alice, you're my real sister. “Oh, really? That's cold. Chloe did have some
value. You taught us to be kind to her. Have you forgotten?” Alice’s words were daggers.
She even helped put unconscious Chloe in Finn's wheelchair.“Chloe messed up, but she’s still family. Why are
you so harsh?”
“Didn’t you see what she did? She humiliated our family!”
Alice blinked.“Even so, you can’t disown her. You're being too petty! Family shouldn't be so calculating!”
Ethan fainted from anger, creating a small crater in the lawn. Alice dodged him. He must be furious; he'd bet his
reputation on this party and it was ruined by Chloe.
Mrs. Parker told the security, “What are you waiting for? Send him to the hospital!” She couldn't

Chloe's humiliation?
“Alice, you'll regret this!” He would've taught Alice a lesson if Chloe weren't unconscious.
Alice watched the Windhams leave, her eyes turning cold, Chloe was cornered. She would see how the
mastermind tried to manipulate the Al project,
The party’s mood was somber. Mrs. Garcia stepped forward.“The matter is resolved. Let's enjoy the rest of
Parker's party.”
Mrs. Parker, her face improved, was relieved. Everyone cooperated, but the incident was the main topic of

Ethan. The Windhams had lost face; if Ethan and Mary remained together, there would be gossip. Mary shielded
Alice.“This was my idea. She just helped.”
“You're stupid! Alice has always clashed with her family; she’s ruthless with her own brother. Don’t befriend
someone who might betray you,” Mrs. Parker said, trying to drive a wedge between them.
Mary said, “Aunt, you're so desperate to use Ethan. I'll handle my own affairs.” “Fine. You'll regret being fooled.”
Mrs. Parker left to manage the damage control. Mary collapsed, weeping.“Alice, | feel so awful.” She'd finally

returned to the party. Most people offered their condolences.
Alice saw Mrs. Garcia, Mrs. Yates, and Mrs. Parker approaching. But not Mrs. Wilson or Julia. Mrs. Garcia said,
“Miss Windham, your family’s had a difficult day. Shouldn't you go to the hospital?”
Mrs. Yates sneered, “If | were them, I'd have left already. They have no shstaying here.” Mary said, “Alice is
my friend. She’s cut ties with her family.”
Mrs. Yates’s voice sharpened.“She cut ties with her family to befriend you? She's just as ambitious as Chloe.”
Mrs. Parker said, “Miss Windham, you heard them. Leave. You don’t belong here.” A low, chilling voice cut
through the air.“Mrs. Parker, do you have a problem with my girlfriend?” It was Jack.
