Chapter 305

Alice saw the shock, embarrassment, and guilt on Mary Parker’s face. Mary Parker blushed and said, “I’m sorry.”

Alice was surprised; she’d expected justifications and moral grandstanding, not an immediate apology. The Land family wouldn’t do this. Mary Parker was different. Alice said, “You should apologize. You tipped off Ethan about the press conference, right?”

Mary Parker nodded, blushing.“Yes, I’m sorry.”

Alice pondered.“Did you think I was just fighting with my family?”

“At first, yes. But after spending time with you, I realized you’re not like that. I started suspecting. Chloe; your brother treats her differently.”

Alice said, “Have dinner with my family. You’ll see.”

“Okay,” Mary Parker readily agreed. She didn’t want to remain uninformed.“I owe you for the press conference; I’ll make it up to you.”

Alice wanted to tell her that Ethan and Mary Parker weren’t suitable, but she held back; she didn’t want to get involved in the Land family’s mess. Ethan wasn’t the type for an arranged marriage; he had other motives.

But there was a way to tell: she’d learned the twelve–hit combo from that person, who’d never performed it in front of her Alice sat beside Wang Yang.“Can you do the twelve–hit combo?”

“If I could do that, I’d be on the national team,” he said.

Alice was surprised.“You practiced the twelve–hit combo?”

“Yes. King is my idol.”

Alice smiled. “He’s my idol too.” The person from her past life had also idolized King; otherwise, he wouldn’t be so familiar with the combo.
