Talented Hairess A Rose with Thorns

Chapter 457

"Get rid of Yvette, and I guarantee the Robertson family will thrive like never before. You'll be the beloved daughter of the Robertson family once more, envied by all."

Lionel's words carried an inexplicable charm, making it hard not to fall for his seductions.

"I'll give you time to think it over. Once you've made up your mind, call me."

Alice stared at her phone in silence after the call ended abruptly. Her eyes flickered, clearly tempted by his offer.

But the image of Wilson fawning over that wretched Yvette earlier today haunted her. If it were discovered that she was behind it all, she'd be utterly ruined!

Alice's eyes glinted with malice as a plan began to form. If she could manipulate Victoria into making a move against Yvette, then even if things went wrong, it would have nothing to do with her. "Alice!" Victoria hurried after her with a worried expression. "Please calm down. There's got to be a way. Don't let your emotions get the best of you-you shouldn't do anything reckless." Seeing Victoria's anxious face, a flash of spite flickered in Alice's eyes. However, she quickly hid it behind a mask of remorse.

"I'm sorry, Victoria. I lost control just now. I shouldn't have snapped at you."

"It's okay, I'm not upset. I know you lost your temper because you were overwhelmed," came Victoria's response.

"I'm so glad you understand me. You really are my best friend." Alice linked her arm with Victoria's. Although the former's expression was affectionate, her mind was already calculating her next move.

"You saw what happened today, didn't you? Wilson only has eyes for Yvette now. She's the one who pushed you and caused your injury, but Wilson still defended her."

Alice let out a sigh, her voice dripping with feigned concern.

She's gone after my family for one small mistake I made. You've been the only woman who received Wilson's care all these years. With Yvette's jealous nature, she definitely won't let you off easily." "Alice, don't say that. Yvie isn't that kind of person." Victoria bit her bottom lip,
