Alice headed to the restroom. While washing her hands, she saw Julia had followed her. She smiled and faced Julia.“Hi, Julia.”

“Alice, can we talk?”

Julia approached, staring at Alice and remembering her closeness to Jack just now.

Julia pursed her lips.“Alice, I’m impressed. You’re a technical lead at a young age and spoke for the company.”

“Thanks, Julia.”

Alice didn’t want to linger.

Julia wasn’t done.“You should know Jada dislikes you and won’t let you be with Jack. He’s always obeyed Jada and never goes against her.”

Alice’s eyes cooled.“What’s your point, Julia? Be direct. I’m busy.”

“Ms. Welch, I’m warning you not to dream about being with Jack. It can’t happen between you and him unless you’re okay being his secret lover forever.”

Hearing her words, Alice laughed.

She glared at Julia.“Are you sure? I remember that the woman who always wanted to be his secret lover was you.”

Alice moved closer, and Julia, guilt–ridden, retreated.“Stop talking nonsense! Jack and I grew up together; we have liked each other since we were young.”

“Come on. Jack never noticed you. You’re just jealous because I’m with him, and you never had a chance.”

Julia’s face faltered.

She defensively replied, “Alice, who do you think you are? Why would I be jealous of you?” “If you weren’t, why did you take Jack’s phone and say you were together? That night, Jada was in the hospital for emergency care.”

Julia’s face tightened.“I said we were together, and it’s true. We were at the hospital.” “But the next day, you claimed you were engaged and told me not to contact him anymore. The engagement was just a rumor you started; it never happened.”

Alice’s eyes were sarcastic, hurting Julia deeply.

Julia retorted, “Who do you think you are? Alice, you’re just a gold digger. You are not worthy of

him!”

“Do you think I don’t know? You want to be with Jack because of his money and status. The Garcia family is currently facing a financial crisis, and you’re trying to solve this problem by marrying him. That’s why you and your mother are in such a hurry.”

After Alice spoke, Julia’s expression shifted drastically.

Julia seethed, saying, “Shut up! Even if the Garcia family has business troubles, we’re still better off than your Welch family. Your brother is trying every means to marry into a wealthy family to climb into the upper class. That’s truly shameful!”
