If it weren’t for the fact that she was dealing with people from the Knight Family, Alice would have had every reason to suspect that the marriage certificate was bought from someone else.

“Miss Woland—I mean, Young Madam Knight, this is yours.” Caleb either misunderstood Alice’s intention or intentionally did what he did as he placed the marriage certificate in front of her.

He even addressed her as Young Madam Knight!

Alice stared at the marriage certificate in front of her. She knew that everything had already been decided, and there was no way to change it, at least not with her current ability.

She didn’t touch the marriage certificate. She looked away from it, and with what she believed to be her most perfect smile, she looked at Ethan and asked, “Mr. Knight, do you know why you have never been in a relationship, even at this age?”

Since it was impossible to reason with him and there was nothing left to discuss, she had nothing to be afraid of.

She had lost her dignity, and there was nothing left to lose. She couldn’t just swallow her anger like this.

She was not the kind of person who would endure this kind of treatment in silence!

Caleb was shocked. He had been by Ethan’s side for so many years, and no one had ever dared to speak to him like that, let alone call him old.

She’s implying that Mr. Knight is old, isn’t she?! To have the guts to say such a thing, she’s indeed impressive, Caleb thought.

“Why?” Ethan’s eyebrow lifted slightly. Is she calling me old?

Alice was throwing caution to the wind by openly provoking him like this!

He wasn’t sure whether he should praise her for her courage or criticize her for her mindlessness.

“Mr. Knight, you’re definitely single by choice,” she said with a smile. However, if one had listened closely, one would have heard the hint of resentment in her voice.

Who would ever want to date someone as cold and expressionless as him? Not only does he have terrible communication skills, but he is also sharp-tongued. Whoever falls for him must be blind, she thought.
