Some of the terms in the agreement strongly resonated with Alice. It appears that Mr. Knight shares the same way of thought as me. That’s great news!

There were a few points concerning Caroline that made Alice feel uneasy. She couldn’t bear to part with the little girl, but she knew that the people in the Knights were Caroline’s true family, and the girl would eventually have to return to them. Alice had to let go of her slowly. Besides, the things that Britney mentioned were all acceptable. All of them were proposed for Caroline’s sake, so Alice was at ease, knowing that Britney truly cared about Caroline.

She picked up a pen and quickly signed her name at the bottom.

Britney did not expect her to sign the agreement with little hesitation. So, she subconsciously asked, “Did you read everything carefully?”

Britney thought that Alice might not have read everything.

“Yes, I’ve read everything carefully.” Alice naturally understood the underlying meaning of her words. She looked up at Britney and gave her a nod, smiling.

Britney was slightly baffled at the sight of Alice’s smiling face. Once again, she couldn’t help reminding Alice, “Um, please take a closer look at the ninth and tenth clauses.”

Alice gave her an affirmative nod once more as she replied, “I’ve read them carefully.”

True to her words, she had indeed looked at those two clauses specifically and read them cautiously.

“Do you understand the meaning behind this?” Britney pursed her lips and explained, “Six months later, you will leave the Knight Family and end your marriage with Ethan. You will have no further relationship with the Knights and cannot use any excuses to meet with Ethan again.”

It was the first time she had done something like this. She looked unnatural, but she had to play the villain for her son’s sake.
