Chapter 161 What a bunch of blabbers!

Alice saw her name on the disciplinary action issued by the hotel. She was one of the people in charge, and she needed to take responsibility for the fire. Also, she was suspended for one month without pay and should cooperate with the company to investigate into the fire.The notice was issued suddenly in the early hours of the morning. The HR used it as an excuse, and said “Employee will not allowed to resign during their suspension.” So, Alice’s resignation was firmly rejected.Alice couldn’t go back to the office, so she had no way to vent her anger. After a while, Maggie brought breakfast to visit them.Eliana sat on the bed drinking milk. In a still hoarse voice, she asked, “Mommy, is Max coming today?”Alice was stirring her milk with a spoon. She frowned at the words and replied, “I am sorry, honey. Max isn’t feeling well now, and he is another hospital. He will come to see you when he is better.”“Okay. So, what about Daddy?”Sean had always wanted Eliana to call Zayden “dadd

Chapter 162 Our cooperation was over

Although Roy acted a little reluctant, he still sent Alice the footage a few days later.That night, Alice opened her laptop and began to watch the video. She looked carefully and tentatively at every detail on the screen.The fire broke out around 11:30 in the morning. At that time, all the juniors and senior managers were having a meeting in the conference room on the second floor. Since it was lunchtime, many people were walking around in the kitchen. So, Alice didn’t notice anything wrong for a while.She saw James, the pastry chef, baking, and Kedian standing next to him to help. It seemed that James kept telling Kedain to leave every few minutes and then come back. Each time he came back he carried some ingredients.At 10:54 a.m., the two children walked into the kitchen. Eliana walked in front, and Max followed her. Then, they stopped in front of James.Alice still felt scared at the thought of two children trapped in the fire. She took a deep breath and then continued to watch

Chapter 163 Why are you telling me this?

“I don’t want to go against you. As you know ‘The enemy of my enemy is friend.’ Don’t you think so, Miss Miller?”Daisy suddenly felt that Jessica’s voice was like a black hole. Also, she knew that she had been pulled to the edge of the abyss by Jessica. If she didn’t stop, she would get herself into a lot of trouble.Daisy took a deep breath and whispered, “I know you are doing this to get back at Alice and Zayden. You hate them because you think that you have lost everything you could have gotten because of them. You want money, don’t you? I can give you as much as money you want. But, I want you to end this nonsense immediately.”Jessica snorted right away and said, “I wish you could say that to Zayden, too.”“What? You…”Jessica said in a dominating tone, “Daisy, do you still think you are still a kind woman after all this? You tried to get Zayden to pay attention to you before, and I have helped you achieve your goal. Am I right?”Daisy froze and then started to think about how g

Chapter 164 I am just a passing by

Alice immediately realized that this man was a sophisticated and intelligent person. If she did not offer conditions in exchange, even if Mr. Smith gave him the cabinet, he might not receive.So, Alice simply suggested, “Well, please let me join you when you go to his house again. You can say that I am also your assistant. After the deal is done, you then offer to go around their house to see other furniture. Then, you can look at the furniture there and I will find someone.”The man looked at her for a few seconds and said, “Deal.”Alice called that man Mr. Miller because his assistant called him that. With them, Alice finally walked into the Smith house this time.The woman who had just kicked her out was not there. Otherwise, Alice would be in trouble again.Alice looked carefully at the cabinet again. After confirming that it was intact, she gave Mr. Miller a hint.Mr. Miller said, “Okay, I will buy it at your price.”James’s brother John was delighted to hear this. He immediately

James didn’t say anything to make Alice stay. So, she walked straight out of the house. It was noon, and the sun was very bright and scorching. But James’s wife was standing in the sunlight feeding the chicken as if she didn’t feel the heat.As Alice came out, she found that James’s wife was looking into the house. When she saw Alice, she immediately lowered her head and seemed to resent her.As Alice walked past her, she heard that woman curse, “What a troublesome woman!”Alice looked back, frowned and asked, “What? Who are you talking to?”The woman looked up and snarled, “Ah, it’s none of your business. I said that my chickens are troublesome.”The chickens inside the coop were still small. Then, one chicken cooed a few times to express how discontent it was.Of course, James' wife wouldn’t scold her chickens for being troublesome, unless she is crazy. So, she must be cursing me. Besides, there is no one here but the two of us. Alice thought to herself.Alice looked at her and said

Chapter 166 I don't believe in coincidence

Alice finished the rest of her words for her. Her voice was very calm, like the cool sea breeze at night.“I guess you guys must think Kedian as your won son. James knew that he had broken the fire extinguishing device and could not get away with it. So, after weighing the pros and cons, he intended to take responsibility himself. Then, Kedian would be innocent and can continue to work in the hotel, right?”After Alice finished, the woman looked like she was on the verge of fainting. She stumbled and asked, “What? You know all about it?”“Well, how much I know depends on how much you are willing to tell me. But, I don’t know what the final outcome of the lawsuit will be. I was the person on duty the day of the fire, and I did nothing. But, I was still fired.” Alice looked at James’s wife and deliberately made her words ambiguous.It seemed like James wife had been building up her anger for a long time. As soon as she heard Alice’s words, she couldn’t help but imagine the worst scenari

Chapter 167 Closer than acquaintances.

“Okay, keep focusing on him. I hope you can find out who exactly made him do it and who ordered him. By the way, find out what he is been doing lately.”Henry nodded and said, “Got it. By the way, Miss Brown’s flight will arrive at the airport tonight. Are you going to pick her up?”Zayden frowned and said, “No. I am going to the hospital tonight to see Daisy.”Henry froze for a moment. Then he sighed in his mind and suddenly felt sympathy for Alice.Alice hadn’t done anything. Yet, they blamed her before for the fire. Now that things are pretty much checked out, we know that the fire has nothing to do with her. Also, we are sure that she didn’t know that Max was in the kitchen. But too bad that Zayden doesn’t seem to care about her anymore, Henry thought in his heart.“Mr. Collins, there is one more thing. The hotel staff has been gossiping about Miss Brown lately. Should we do something about it?”Most of the staff thought that since Alice and Zayden had broken up. They all talked a

Chapter 168 Like mother and son

“What? Sis, you know him?” George said warily.“Sis?” Rene asked with a teasing smile.Watching, George split the beans, Alice laughed as she felt resigned. She said, “Hey, George you shouldn’t have said that.”She had only told Rene that she was engaged, but she didn’t tell him who her fiance was. Little did she know that George would spill the beans within a second.What a simple kid! But, this whole thing is indeed my fault, is it? Alice thought to herself.“Oh, I will leave you two alone, okay? We are off to somewhere else.” Alice rubbed her nose awkwardly and left with Maggie.Alice thought that there were so many people here, so there was no way Rene would do anything to George. Also, she and Maggie felt awkward just by standing next to them. So, she thought that it was better to run away.Just as Alice left, George glared at Rene in annoyance and prepared to leave as well.“Don’t you want to know how Alice and I met?” Rene asked.“No!”“I know you hate me. But do you hate me mo

Chapter 169 Who would you choose?

Rene was a smart and sophisticated man. He was an expert at finding people’s weak spots and saying something ironic about them. Also, he was good at pretending that he didn’t mean it.He and Alice were just being sarcastic with each other. He just implied that her relationship with Zayden wasn’t solid. The problem between them was not Daisy, but themselves. Also, he said they broke up because they weren’t that in love with each other in the first place.However, Alice was also not shy. She rolled her eyes at him as he talked, and then mocked him for falling in love with a straight guy. She also said that he was naive to think he could turn a heterosexual man into a gay.In short, neither of them was willing to admit defeat in comparing who could be more sarcastic.Then, Zayden appeared on the scene. Not long after, Mrs. Miller stopped him and talked to him.And that brought Alice and Rene a new topic.“Alice, are you feeling embarrassed? Look, the man you love is so close to his ex-fi

Chapter 170 Are you jealous?

Henry was standing in the doorway of the lounge while Alice and Zayden were arguing. After a while, he looked at his watch and saw that they had been in there for fifteen minutes.Daisy had come there several times on purpose to hear what they were saying. But, Henry had told her to leave.Henry thought they had been in there for such a long time. So, are they going to make up?”As he was expecting it, he heard the sound of the door opening. Then, Alice stepped out.“Miss Brown, hello,” Henry said.“Oh, no, Henry, you can call me Alice now. I am not the manager of the hotel anymore.” Alice looked at Henry indifferently.Henry froze when he noticed Zayden walking out with a grim face as well. He immediately became frustrated. He thought to himself. So, are they not getting back together? But I don’t think so. They looked like they had another big fight and were ready to break up for good. Oh my god, how could this happen?Then the party started. And the Miller family was toasting all t
