The Queen's Back

Chapter 61

As Alice glanced at Barbara, her once respectful demeanor had shifted to one filled with resentment. She eagerly helped Mona by pouring water, still addressing her with respect.

Sering Alice's behavior, Barbara felt a surge of anger. Just yesterday, Alice had been so attentive to her. Now, that attention had shifted to Mona, and Barbara could only watch Alice with disdain.

Mona glanced at the cup in her hand. Initially, she hadn't intended to accept it, but seeing Barbara's disapproving gaze made her change her mind. Not only did she take the cup that Alice offered, but she also shared the cookies with her. As long as Barbara was unhappy. Mona felt a sense of satisfaction

Alice looked at the cookies in her hand, feeling pleasantly surprised. She had prepared herself for the possibility of being rejected by Mona, but she didn't expect Mona to actually share snacks with her.

These snacks looked imported and must have been expensive. They were nothing like what Barbara casually offered, which felt more like a mere act of charity and left a bad taste in her mouth.

Comparing the two, Alice quickly realized that Mona was much better. She wished she had chosen sides with Mona from the

start.

Seeing their back-and-forth interaction, Barbara, seething with anger, stormed out to the rooftop for some fresh air. She felt as if Mona was driving her mad.
