“But it depends on his feelings, right? If he doesn’t like her, it doesn’t matter if she throws herself at him.”

“To be honest with you, Mr. Yeager has always had feelings for Emma. Likewise, Emma is loyal to him. They’re the real match made in heaven.” Alice deliberately raised her voice to refute the hushed gossip around her. She knew that Emma was flirting with a few men, taking turns to associate with them, apart from having an illicit affair with Elijah.

Alice had to give it to Emma. She was something to be capable of pleasing multiple love interests without getting caught red-handed.

Since Emma wanted to play with her, she would teach Emma a lesson. That was only the beginning, for the best was yet to come.

Well, since Emma is so good at pleasing her multiple love interests, let’s get her into trouble today. Alice was aware of Emma’s goal. Her decision to play on the issue was akin to torturing Emma.

She knew that Bruce was once Emma’s top pick. After all, the Yeagers were rather influential in Rodcaster, and Bruce was considered accomplished among his peers. However, after the mess she orchestrated at the wedding, the Yeagers were left in ruins. So, Alice wondered if the Yeager Family was still at the top of Emma’s list.

“Emma, am I right?” She looked at Emma and prompted the latter to answer.

At that point, Emma was cornered. She never expected Alice to bring that up at the event, and her face fell. She could never express her thoughts openly on an event of this scale. Once she admitted her relationship with Bruce, she would effectively deprive herself of other marriage prospects. On top of that, Bruce was yet to be her best candidate for marriage.

After Keith’s visit to the Wolands for Alice’s hand in marriage yesterday, Emma was jealous and refused to give up. She wanted to marry Keith, and she had a plan for that. If she admitted to her relationship with Bruce, she would kill off any chance of marrying into the Rowland Family. Thus, she would do anything than admit it.

If she bagged the Rowlands, Bruce would mean nothing because
