Marry A Hidden Billionaire By Rosalind Stevenson

Chapter 242

Chapter 242 Chapter 242 Vivian never foresaw that Alice would demand money from them and declare her intention not to divorce Daniel… “What… What is happening here? “Is she inadvertently causing harm to herself?” Vivian mused. “Miss Doyle, I…” Vivian Hand stared at Alice Doyle in disbelief. “Shut up, I have not granted you the privilege to speak! Could you please conceal your intentions and step aside?” Alice interjected, saying. Though her face displayed a facade of composed amusement, a distinct undercurrent of tension emanated. Vivian involuntarily gulped, finding it hard to process what unfolded before her eyes. She thought, “Could Alice indeed be planning a counterattack, aiming to overpower me?” Daniel, at this moment, was not perturbed that Alice requested money. In that, he contemplated that if she genuinely could not ama ss the funds, she would not seek a divorce. Thus, he planned to avoid payment…

That way… he could ensure that she would never leave him! Nevertheless, Alice deciphered his unspoken thoughts. Her lips curved slightly as she calmly expounded, “Mr. Kaur, if the funds are not transferred… I’ll merely retain the title of ‘Mrs. Kaur. But, I would never meet you again and would not fulfill any marital duties. “Ponder over it carefully. Is it worthwhile to allow a female entertainer, whom you’ve both guarded against and belittled, to claim the esteemed status as your noble spouse? “Were I in your position, I would certainly comply. Then, continue pretending to be financially strained and find a genuinely naive and sweet young lady to engage in this intriguing game with your entire family.” “This isn’t a game,” Daniel interjected, saying. His expression showed a blend of complexity. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“Not a game? Initially, you doubted me, believed I am after your family’s wealth, deemed me a plotter, and sought to test me, correct?” Alice queried with a smile. She wrestled with her emotions, preventing them from surging forth. “I…” Daniel stammered. He was at a loss for words. Indeed, he had initially held reservations about her. “It’s alright. Your suspicions were valid. I am a plotter. I’ve been involved with numerous men… those rumors I was entangled with before meeting you were true. I’ve been intimate with them. And on each occasion, I demanded compensation!” Alice said. Patting his shoulder, Alice intentionally added, “Yet none were as valuable as you. In the end, I reaped the rewards, didn’t I?” “Don’t depict yourself in such a demeaning light,” Daniel insisted, saying. He understood she was not that sort of person. It had been him who had initially erred, his preemptive skepticism setting the stage for a series of falsehoods. “I won’t phrase it like that. Don’t you think so too?” Alice co olly chuckled as she spoke. A hint of desolation threaded through her laughter. “Daniel, you might still be immersed in games, but I’m not! Right now, I only covet money. I no longer desire you. Don’t hold yourself in such high regard!” Alice stated. With that said, she linked arms with Theo, playfully evading Daniel. The absence of Daniel’s voice finally triggered Alice’s tears to flow uncontrollably. However, she hesitated to wipe them away, anxious the duo behind her would notice. If that happened, her earlier act would lose its purpose. Inside the elevator, Alice’s legs weakened entirely. She stood there, collapsing to the ground like a deflated balloon. “Alice,” Theo called out as he promptly supported her, “Don’t cry! Don’t shed tears for that scoundrel! None of them deserve you; they’re all vile!”

Amidst her tears, Alice managed a smile, observing Theo’s efforts to console her, though she could not utter a word. She held her chest, and as the suffocating ache somewhat subsided, she articulated, “Theo, I want to enjoy a seafood 1/2 13:11 Chapter 242 buffet.” “Let’s indulge in a seafood buffet. We’ll pick your favorite spot,” Theo agreed, saying. “Good, invite everyone to join us and get them to prepare gifts for me! Let’s commemorate the day I got cheated on!” Alice responded.
