Right when she steps out of the office, Jacquiline hears her phone ringing in her bag.

She takes a look, it's Alice.

She's calling at this time? Jacquiline's put her finger on the green answer the phone button for quite some time, but she recalls her finger and puts her phone back to the bag. She bumps into Allen, her black eyes looks a bit panic.

“Miss Smith, you're leaving?” Allen asks with a polite smile.

“Yes, yes, I'm leaving now.” Jacquiline nods, she unconsciously bites her red lips and avoids Allen, walking towards the lift.

Did he see that call?

It's fine, he's just an assistant, Jacquiline presses the 1st floor button on the lift, and tries to hide her anxiety, her phone stops ringing after a while.

At first, Alice was still worried that after Edward got angry, he would do something to her mother. But after she called the hospital, and everything was safe and sound, she felt relieved.

After a few days when the cold is gradually gone and the clinic is also open, they’re back to the regular with two doctors.

When it's past the working hours, Julie drags Alice with full excitement, “There's an art exhibition, why don't we take a look? It's very rare, and I heard the artist is famous abroad.”

Alice pauses for a second, she looks at the ticket in Julie hands, not only she remembers her university days, she actually likes painting very much, and she had ever wanted to be an artist too.

At that time, Edward brought her several times to see the art exhibition, one of the artists that she really likes is coincidentally the artist whose name is written on the ticket that Julie’s holding.

It's just that this artist's ticket is extremely expensive, only famous people of the upper class could get it. It's not an exhibit for commerce, so it's almost impossible for common people to get the ticket.

Looking at Julie's full of anticipation face, Alice thinks that she has nothing to do anyway that night because recently, her two babies enjoy playing with John, so Alice thinks she can just go along with Julie.

It's just that, when they get to the art exhibit entrance and no famous people are seen yet, she runs into the one person she doesn't want to see the most——Joanna, along with a married woman whose clothes are luxurious.

Joanna wears a slim-fit ruffle dress, she looks elegant and beautiful, and she attracts many men's gaze with the exquisite makeup, looking extremely proud.

At the same time, Joanna also sees Alice with disdainful gaze.

Alice only takes a quick glance before she looks away, planning to enter with Julie from another side.

Who knows, Joanna walks over to her, with arrogant speaking tone, “Poor people can come to this sort of place too, do you understand how to appreciate the arts? Where did you get this ticket? Who did you fool?”

When Joanna say ‘fool’, her bite gets stronger while her eyes looks gloomier, this ticket couldn't be a gift from Edward, right?!

Before Alice gives an answer, Julie that has a bad temper isn't happy to hear that so she speaks to Joanna, “What do you mean by fool, my friend gave me this, what about it, could you reserve the whole art exhibition?!”

Joanna gets blocked by Julie's words, since there are many people around them, she keeps her noble lady image for the moment and tries to hold back, then she takes a quick evil glance at Julie, “If know you’ll come, I would've reserved the whole art exhibition!”

The upper-class woman beside Joanna also looks at Alice and Julie with a disdainful gaze, she especially pays attention to what they wear, that kind of contempt and disgust she’s showing is very obvious.

Alice has ever looked ad such gaze from Janet's eyes.

It had once made her suffer a lot, and made her feel inferior, but she can face it calmly now.
