Initially, Alice had intended to just drop by and clarify things before leaving. However, James didn’t give her a chance to say much, and he didn’t even bring up the topic of marriage ever since she entered the house. She didn’t even have a chance to reject anything. Furthermore, it made it harder for anyone to continue the conversation when James was humiliating his grandson. Wisdom does come with age, after all. Old Mr. Rowland is famous for a reason. He’s impressive! Alice thought. But no matter how much Old Mr. Rowland tries to avoid the topic, he’ll have to bring it up eventually. So, there’s no rush, I guess.

At that moment, Suzette jogged into the living room with a look of excitement on her face. “Someone sent flowers to Miss Alice. There are tons of flowers! There’s an entire truck filled with roses! It’s so gorgeous and stunning,” she cried. Suzette froze for a moment when she saw Alice in the house. “You should go take a look, Miss Alice,” she urged. Suzette was Hazel and Donovan Haddon’s daughter. Hazel and Donovan had been working for the Wolands for years, and their daughter, who was in a university in Rodcaster, would show up at Woland Residence every now and then.

Suzette dropped by that day just in time to see the whole truck of roses outside. She froze in surprise when she first saw it. Emma already felt miserable, to begin with, and after what Suzette said, she felt immense jealousy. I can’t believe someone actually bought flowers for that ugly girl. That person is either blind or too deeply in love, Emma thought.

Alice was stunned to hear about the flowers. A whole truck of flowers, huh? Roses? Who would give me such a thing? Who would give me a truck full of roses? Meanwhile, James, who had been sitting on the couch, raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. There was a hint of satisfaction on his face. I guess Keith is pretty good with girls. At least he knows how to buy flowers, James thought.

“Who are the flowers from?” Charles was surprised to hear this as well. It was normal for one to buy another person some flowers, but to send over an entire truck of flowers was practically unheard of. “I don’t know. I was just looking at the flowers—I forgot to look at the person,” Suzette muttered in a rather embarrassed tone. “But I double-checked—it’s definitely for Miss Alice.”

men began to move the flowers into the house as Suzette spoke. They each came in with a bunch of flowers, and after a few rounds, they eventually filled the place up. Woland Residence itself had an astoundingly huge living room, yet the number of roses that were sent over was enough to fill the space. One might’ve thought that Suzette was exaggerating when she talked about the truck of flowers, but everyone was almost blinded by all the red in the room after the roses had been brought into the

The man had already walked up to Alice at that point, and he had a bouquet of purple roses in his hands. Purple roses were a representation of romance and sincerity, and their color made them seem especially unique. The man beamed as he handed the bouquet to

Alice took a few steps back, and she happened to sneeze just in time to support her point. Lindsay’s expression darkened for a moment, but she didn’t say much after that. Emma clenched her fists as she thought about how unappreciative Alice was. However, Emma also felt secretly pleased that things weren’t working

He no longer looked like his usual harsh and cold self. A man who is willing to change for a woman is a man who’s really sincere and genuine, Emma thought. Jealousy was written all over her face at that point. She desperately wanted to just tear Alice into pieces.
