S — hould William really go? Her parents originally wanted her to marry Patrick.
If it wasn't for this incident, she would have accepted it as her parents' arrangement.
"Why are you so nervous?"
Under the night sky, William stood in front of her and asked while staring at her.
"I'm nervous about whether or not you can leave a good impression on them." Alice said, sizing him up, "I hope that we can get our parents' blessings."
They had lost his parents' blessings. They could no longer lose hers.
"We engaged without blessing."
William disapproved.
Hearing this, Alice suddenly remembered that her younger brother was the one who William had always been the most concerned. Thus, during the charity banquet earlier, William did not even greet his mother.
He only wanted her, but he couldn't please her parents.
Because, if not for York, his brother might not have died at all.
The night wind woke Alice up from her stupor, and she smiled as if she didn't care. "That's right, then wait for me here, I'll go see my mother."
William stared at her fake smile, and did not say a word.
Alice thought that he was annoyed about Patrick, and said: "I am just going to see mother, if I meet Patrick, I will explain everything to him, don't worry, just wait for me here, I will be back soon."
William stood there and did not speak.
"Then I'll go."
Alice thought that he had tacitly agreed and turned around to leave. The moment she turned around, the smile on her face instantly disappeared.
It doesn't matter.
William didn't want to be on good terms with Brown Family, it didn't matter.
She shouldn't make things difficult for him.
It was fine for her to weigh the two sides of the relationship. It was fine for her to do everything.
Alice thought to herself as she walked into the hospital. However, William still stood at the same spot and looked at her back.
Alice took the elevator up to the high floor. She walked to the ward and took a few deep breaths, she knocked on the door with a smile.
Soon the door was opened. The maid was standing inside. She was very happy to see her: "Miss, you have finally come back."
"Yes."
Alice walked in, took off her jacket and handed it to the maid. On the huge bed, Beverly was sitting there reading a book, while Xavier was quietly sitting at the side, slicing an apple.
"Father. Mother."
Alice stopped and nodded at them.
"Hmm."
Xavier raised his serious face and looked at Alice coldly. He did not scold her, nor did he criticize her, he just continued to peel the apples.
However, when Beverly saw Alice, she was filled with joy. "Alice, you're here."
"Yes, mother, are you feeling better?"
Alice carefully walked past Xavier and sat on the bed.
"I'm much better." Beverly put the book away, held Alice's face with both hands and said with a smile, "Not bad, your spirit is better than before."
Alice looked at Beverly in a daze.
Beverly smiled gently, "Your father tried to hide it from me, but now the news is spreading everywhere. How could I not know it?"
'Tm sorry, Mother. Because this situation is very difficult to reverse, William and I have to play it real." Alice sat on the bed and said.
"You were acting when you were kidnapped?"
Xavier raised his head and looked at Alice sternly.
Alice said firmly, "Of course I am, it's impossible that I don't know about my engagement."
"Is that so?"
Xavier looked at her with an obvious disbelief in his eyes.
"You're just too paranoid." Beverly looked at Xavier, then looked at Alice. "I know the story behind the scenes, Alice has always liked William, if William is someone who wants to force a marriage, our Alice would not like him."
Alice listened silently, not saying a word. Beverly pulled Alice's hand, "But aren't you being a little too audacious to change the bride in front of everyone, I'm afraid Lancaster family and Cullen Family will not let you off."
"If William doesn't even have the ability to handle these matters, you should immediately rescind the engagement."
Xavier said sternly. He split the apple in his hand into two, one half to his wife and one half to Alice.
