The president's seventh bride novel Chapter 41

"Look in the mirror first."

Alicia said what he had said to her before and snorted dismissively.

"Why are you so angry? Did I owe you money?"

Carlos raised his eyebrows and asked. He felt embarrassed just now. But after he saw her disdainful attitude, he was agitated by her and was a little annoyed. Subconsciously, he actually wanted her to be jealous.

The more he didn't care about others, the more he wanted to be cared by others. This was the most extreme psychology of a typical hurt man.

"I'm angry because you are stupid. You even believe what Mia said. Someday you’ll be deceived by her, but you don’t know what happened."

He didn't walk away immediately after leaving the guest room, but hid outside the door, so he heard the sentence.

"What about you? Aren’t you stupid? Do you dare to say that you were not sold to me by Colton?"

"Yes, I was sold, but I was sold for 18 million at least. If it were you, you might not be worth of the price."

"You…"

Carlos was so angry. How dared this woman to refute him like this? It seemed that he didn’t teach her an impressive lesson last night.

Just when he was about to teach her a lesson again, her cell phone rang suddenly. She lowered her head to glance at the phone number. As she answered the call, she walked into the secret room, "Hello?"

The call was made by Colton. His topic would never get away from the interests.

"Alicia, it's me, Dad."

"What’s the matter? You call me so late?" In fact, she knew it well.

Sure enough, she was right.

"It's nothing important. It's about the bidding of Joliot-Curie Group. Can you ask Carlos what conditions are more promising for winning the bid?"

Alicia was silent for a short while. But she didn’t refuse this time. She faintly replied, "Okay, I’ll ask him, but I can't guarantee whether I can get the answer you want. You know Carlos well. He doesn’t mix work and private affairs."

When Colton heard that she agreed, he felt that there was much hope. No matter how a person had a clear boundary between work and private matters, it was impossible for him to be indifferent to his wife.

"Okay, okay, just bother you. Alicia, you are really my good daughter."

Alicia felt what he said was so disgusting. But it didn't matter. Because he was not her good father, so she was not his good daughter either.

If family affection could be measured by the interests, she would rather not have the family affection.

Alicia didn't really ask Carlos about the bidding. She believed that her father must have already asked Carlos, but Carlos refused, so her father came to her.

From now on, she had to be a bad woman.

Her plan would start to be implemented bit by bit. She would give the previous pain she had been through back to those who had hurt her.

There were few classes in school on Friday afternoon. She went home early. As soon as she got home, she went to find Mia and scolded her, “I don’t have any opinion on how long you live here, but please restrain your behavior and don’t treat here as your own home. Except those, you can do whatever you want."

Mia couldn’t accept to be scolded like this. She had never suffered such a grievance. Her face sank, "What do you mean? What's wrong with me?"

"Dare you say you didn't walk around when we were not at home?"

"What's wrong with my walking around? Does it bother you? Mrs. Sara let me treat here as my own home. What are you yelling at?

"If you really just walk around, I won't say anything. But you entered other people's rooms and touched others' things without their permissions. I feel ashamed for you. Others will laugh at us secretly and think that we’re bad-mannered!"

"Who said that? Whose room did I go into? Who touched those things?"

Mia was so angry. She had never been wronged like this.

"It doesn’t matter who said that. What’s important is that someone told me. Where is here? This is Cloud Mansion. The richest family in B City lives here. There are more than ten times more servants here than the Joliot-Curie family. There are so many people here. Do you think you can get away this just because you don't admit it?"
