Alice knew Mrs. Parker was deliberately making things difficult. She and Mary had thwarted Mrs. Parker and
Ethan's plan, humiliating Mrs. Parker. No matter what Alice said, Mrs. Parker would find fault. She wouldn't reveal
her past grievances; people would only laugh, not sympathize.
Mrs. Parker was surprised by Alice’s directness.“Miss Windham, you're too blunt. You'll offend ‘many. Miss Garcia
is so much more likeable.”
Jack’s eyes grew cold, glancing at Wilson Garcia, who immediately spoke.“Mrs. Parker, don’t compare Miss Garcia
to my sister-in-law. My brother and Miss Garcia have nothing. This is embarrassing for the Mos.”
“I only said a few words. You brothers are so protective. Why did Miss Windham cut ties with her family?”
Wilson Garcia replied, “I heard my sister-in-law was the top scorer on the Gaokao but was forced to attend a
local second-tier university instead of a top university, and even forced to tutor her adoptive sister who failed.”
Mary, returning from the dance, was shocked.“Making the top scorer retake the exam? Are the Windhams
crazy?”
Wilson Garcia explained, “Ethan supposedly did it to avoid gossip. The biological sister was the top scorer, and
the adopted sister failed because of cheating. To appear fair, they made the top scorer retake the exam.”
Mary's face flushed crimson.“Ethan is unbelievable!”
She felt humiliated. Mrs. Parker's face paled.
Andrew Yates added, “It’s true. Yun University wanted to meet Alice, but Ethan refused, saying she wouldn't go.”
‘Wilson Garcia sighed.“Yun University! Whose child wouldn't be thrilled to get in? To refuse...?”
People started discussing it. Someone said, “The top scorer getting into Yun University... that's a dream come
true!”

“To make her retake? That's insane!”
“No wonder she cut ties. I'd do the same.”
Alice looked at Jack, smiling. He and Wilson Garcia were here to support her. Even when Mrs. Parker attacked her,
he protected her.
Jack looked at her.“Your brother's actions can’t be hidden. People aren't fools.”
Alice nodded, looking at Wilson Garcia and Andrew Yates.“Thank you for explaining.”
Wilson Garcia said, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry. The Windhams won't bully you again.”
Andrew Yates smiled.“Little Lemon, don’t
can see the worry. People
truth.”
Mrs. Parker couldn't say anything; she was agitated. Why was Ethan so kind to the adopted daughter? She
hadn’t expected Alice to be so capable. If Alice and Jack got together, Ethan would
be harder to control.
Mary said, “Mr. Wilson, let's dance; it’s almost over.”
Alice and Jack went to dance.

Jack looked down at her.“Still upset?”
“Not really. You know Mary and | planned this; she didn’t want to be involved with my brother.” “I guessed. But |
didn’t expect you to help Mary; she once plotted against you.” “I know; she explained and apologized. She didn’t
understand the Windhams* situation or my brother's nature. Now she’s decided to cut ties.”
Alice helped Mary for her friendship and her own benefit. Ethan would hate Chloe for ruining his plans. She
wanted to see what Chloe would do next.
Jack said, “Mary is too weak to oppose Mrs. Parker.”
“It takes time. Once she sees Mrs. Parker's true nature, she'll find her way. Look at me; I'm independent and
doing well.”
Alice, distracted, stepped on Jack’s foot. She apologized, blushing.
Jack smiled faintly.“I’'m sorry I'm late. If I'd arrived earlier, you wouldn't have been bullied.”
“I can’t rely on you forever.”
“Why not?”
Alice,
avoiding
his gaze, changed the subject.“ls your grandmother stable?”
“Yes, for now.” His tone turned somber.

Silence fell. After the dance, the party ended. Alice wanted to go with Mary; she was worried. about her alone
with Mrs. Parker.
Jack said, “Don’t worry. The Windhams humiliated Mrs. Parker; she won't mistreat Mary to avoid gossip.”
Alice still worried and wanted to take Mary back to their dorm.
Mary refused.”l won't hide. | didn’t do anything wrong.”
Alice was
“Sure.”
relieved. Mary said to Jack, “Mr. Wilson, please take my friend home.
Outside, guests were leaving. Alice got into the car, saying to Jack, “I'm not going to school; I'm going home.”
Jack frowned.“Are you sure?”
“My brother won't give up on the Parkers. He might wantto persuade Mary. He won't make things difficult for
me.” Ethan was in charge; Chloe had ruined his plans. She wanted to see what happened
next, and to investigate PZ Company's cooperation with Ethan.
Jack drove her to the Windham villa. Before she got out, he said, “Ask for help if you need it.” Alice said, “Thank
you for bringinghome.”
He watched her until she entered the villa. He clicked his tongue. She's difficult.
Alice entered the villa and heard Chloe's cries
agonizing and desperate.
