Chapter 246
“Josh, I’m perfectly self-aware,” Alice interrupted, gazing at him calmly. “If the Kaur family were happy with my status, they wouldn’t have lied to your grandparents about me.”
“Maybe, like Daniel, they feared you would be unhappy if we told the truth.” Josh didn’t know how to explain this situation
to her.
Indeed, if they had only lied to one person, it would be easier to come up with an explanation. However, they had hidden the truth about Alice’s status from the entire family.
“Josh, I know you think highly of me, and you’re convinced there’s no one better than me. But only I know who I really am and what I’ve been through.
Alice smiled and continued, “Vivian is right, actually. I’m just an artiste. I can’t help Daniel out with anything.
“Besides, the children will be better off with a stepmother like Vivian rather than an actress like me! Don’t worry about me anymore, Josh. After I think this through, I’ll ask your brother for a divorce.
“I won’t come between him and the Kaur family! I’ll do my best to continue building up my film career and become a rich woman in my own right!”
This did little to reassure Josh. In fact, he looked even more unnerved.
He felt as though the weight of a huge rock was pressing against his chest. “What’s wrong with you becoming the children’s stepmother? Actually, Daniel is the one who isn’t worthy of you!”
Alice was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled and said, “Wow, Josh. I didn’t think you would hold me in higher esteem than your own brother.”
Josh snorted. “Why not? As if a loser like Daniel could hold a candle to someone like you!”
“Haha!” Alice covered her mouth and laughed for a long while. Then, she gazed gently at Josh and said, “Josh, you’re so nice to me that I’m touched. Come on, I’ll treat you to a meal of meat I cooked.”
As he gazed at the piece of meat, Josh made a decision.
After sending Alice back, he would go to the hospital to beat someone up.
No matter how terrifying Daniel was, Josh was determined to let him know the consequences of lying to Alice: getting his leg broken!
After Alice left the hospital, Vivian looked at Daniel guiltily. “That… Daniel, I… I’ve really let you down. I didn’t expect it to turn out like this!”
“Get lost!” Daniel was running out of patience.
“I can understand your feelings, but Daniel, she asked you for money. It means that she doesn’t love you that much… If only she had feelings for you, it would make more sense for you to get her back.”
Vivian sighed. “But what can you do now? She doesn’t even love you.”
“This is our business. It has nothing to do with you.” Daniel’s good temper vanished in an instant. He gazed darkly at the woman in front of him. “You have no right to discuss our matter.”
Vivian choked. She pursed her lips and looked at Daniel with mixed feelings. “I’m sorry. I wanted to make up for
mistake.”
“No need!” Daniel interrupted her.
my
“But I can’t bear to see you suffer. Daniel, you know how I feel about you. I only want you to be happy. In fact, I’m willing to die for your happiness,” Vivian said, agitated.
Daniel was expressionless. Looking at her darkly, he said slowly, “Seems like I didn’t make myself clear enough in the past. You listen carefully, now.”
“Huh?”
“I’ve never liked you from the beginning! Stop wasting your efforts trying to get your hands on me. Otherwise, the Hand family will get it from me!” Daniel snapped firmly, his tone cold as ice.
Seeing Daniel like this, Vivian flew into a rage, too.
They had known each other since they were young. They were childhood sweethearts. She thought that Daniel would like
her.
However, he was now threatening her for the sake of another woman!

Chapter 246
Had she been imagining things this whole time?
“Daniel, we’ve known each other for so many years. I’ve worked with you, and we’ve done many things together. In your heart, am I less than a woman you’ve barely known for a hundred days?”
Actually, she already knew the answer, but Vivian still wanted to ask.
Daniel’s expression was cold. “Yes, she’s my wife, the woman I love the most! No one can compare to her.”
“Including the babies’ biological mother?” Vivian asked.
“Yes.”
Vivian laughed bitterly. She really did not expect Daniel to have such deep feelings for Alice.
“I’ll find a way to deal with the rumors on Twitter. Don’t let it affect you.” No matter what, she couldn’t let Daniel get too annoyed with her.
As long as there was a chance to get close to him, she would go all out to do it.
However, Daniel interrupted her coldly. “No need. The Kaur family has our own ways of dealing with it!”
With that, he swung around and swept back into his medical ward, leaving Vivian gazing helplessly at the icy view of his retreating back.
Seeing the door slam shut, Vivian was so angry that her face contorted, and she clenched her fists tightly.
“Daniel, the more you try to distance yourself from me, the more I shall throw myself at you!
“Hmph, I will make Alice Doyle disappear from your world and make you regret it!”
When Johnny returned to the ward, his expression was already very nasty.
However, he did not blow up at Daniel immediately. After all, he suspected the Twitter trends and the recordings circulating around the artists were fabricated.
Besides, even if he wanted to kill Daniel, Alice called the final shots.
If Alice didn’t love him, he would tell Daniel to screw off as far away as possible.
But if she really loved him that much…
He would hold his horses for the time being.
Just as the tension in the air grew more palpable, William rushed in crying and said to Daniel, “What should we do? Alice must already know. She must be furious.”
“Yes.” Daniel nodded.
“You’re too calm. Daniel, what’s going on?” William stared at his brother suspiciously.
With his fear of Alice finding out, shouldn’t he be afraid now?
Actually, Johnny was also a little curious about Daniel’s strange reaction to this news. It was different from what they had expected.
Daniel had been typing messages on his phone and ignored the two of them.
“Hello, Daniel. Is your phone more important than your wife?” William looked confused.
If his brother refused to change himself, no one would fault his wife for abandoning him.
Finally, as if unable to stand William’s chatter, Daniel looked up. “She was here. She was angry.”
“Are you kidding?” William stared at him in shock, wide-eyed.
Even Johnny was shocked.
Alice had come here before them?
“Then… did she want to break up with you? Did you try your best to apologize to her? She’s a girl, you know. You should have coaxed her, especially since we were wrong this time.”
As William spoke, he searched for Josh’s contact information in his phone’s contact list.
Since Alice had found out, she would definitely look for Josh.
He had to get some information from Josh first. If they could find out how angry she was, they would be able to figure out
how to deal with her.

However, Josh hung up on him.
“F uck, Josh has some balls. He even dared to hang up on me” William was furious. “What the hell is he doing?”
“He’s with Alice, Daniel said calmly.
Only then did William notice that Daniel’s phone was filled with information about Alice.
Oh, a certain someone wasn’t concerned about his work. He was looking at his wife…
Was his fear of his wife holding him back from taking action?
