Chapter 140:

Feeling encouraged by her conversation with Gina, Alice decided not to invite her to lunch due to the unusual circumstances and instead opted to join Monica. She laid out a generous amount of dishes on the table.

As Monica settled in, she asked, “Are we alone?”

Alice, pecking at her food, agreed. “Yes, just the two of us.”

Monica looked at the table, perplexed. “Is all this really just for…?”

“It’s a celebration,” Alicia explained, briefly sharing details of her recent split from Joshua. “I don't have to go to the Yates mansion or keep up appearances anymore. “I can do whatever I want now.”

He raised his glass of milk in a toast. “Gina has also offered me her support.”

Monica, recognizing the meaning of Alicia's words, agreed that they did indeed have reason to celebrate.

“Yet you are still depressed. What is the reason?” Monica gently touched Alicia’s forehead.

Alice gave a small smile. “No, I'm fine. “I’m just very hungry.”

But in truth, Alicia was feeling rather gloomy. The events of the previous day at the Yates mansion had mostly left her scared, worried that they might act rashly. After tending to her foot wound, she had tried to talk to Caden, but his indifference had stung her.
