Chapter 154:

The floor was almost empty, with few patients or staff passing through.

With no one around, Lilliana's insults grew louder.

«Women like you are nothing more than toys for men. They throw you away once they've had their fun. "And you really think you matter?"

Alice remained indifferent to his insults.

"So, Ms. Green, in your opinion, whenever there's a man involved, it's the woman who loses. When Joshua cheated on me during our marriage, did he see you as just a tool to satisfy his needs?"

Lilliana's expression darkened.

"Do you really think you're in the same league as me?"

Alice burst out laughing.

Her eyes shifted to Joshua.

Alice said slowly, “Your fiancé must be something special for you to become his mistress and get pregnant while he was still married to another woman. But what about Caden?”

He paused briefly before continuing confidently. “Caden’s capabilities eclipse Joshua’s in every way. So now that I’m with him, tell me, who really benefits here?”

Lilliana scoffed.

“You're so naive. Do you really think you and Caden are together? He'll get tired of you in no time. Just wait, he'll throw you out like garbage.”

Alice shrugged. “Even if it's just for a week, I'd be better off. “I’m not the one making the effort.”

Lilliana's composure began to crack.

Alicia smiled as she met Lilliana's gaze. "But what about you, Miss Green? After two years with Joshua, how much have you earned?"

Lilliana was speechless.
