“What are you talking about? Rain was baffled by what Zayden was saying.Zayden didn’t say anything but looked at Alice, who was standing beside him.“Zayden is now the head of the finance department at Brown Group.” Getting the hint, Alice explained.Rain’s eyes widened as if she was skeptical of what Alice was saying.“Huh? That’s ridiculous! He is from the Dream High Group! How could he be our head of finance? Why did you take it upon yourself to make him this position? Do you take the board of directors seriously?”Alice said thoughtfully, “Yes, I took the board of directors seriously. But, you see, no one on the board seems to take me seriously. Besides, I wasn’t even going to make that decision on my own. Someone just had a temper tantrum at the meeting. At that point, I realized that I didn’t really need to meet with you guys to discuss this.”Rain’s face flushed with anger as she stomped her foot, “Damn it! Alice, my father is right, you are a jinx! Anyone who is near you will

Jones was an elderly man who had been through a lot and looked at Alice calmly and composedly.He said, “Since Zayden is deeply in love with you, he will certainly marry you. He and Sean, you see, have been feuding for a long time. You are a wise woman, so you can persuade them to reconcile. That way, Sean would welcome you.”“To be honest, I think you are overestimating me,” Alice said, frowning, “What makes you so certain that I can persuade them to reconcile with each other?”“I know Zayden is a cold person, but he would never do such a thing. They are at odds because they rarely communicate with one another. Everything will be fine if you let Zayden agree to explain what happened before to Sean.”Jones was correct. Alice was the only person who could persuade Zayden. However, he had no idea that Alice had already investigated what had happened three years ago and was as suspicious of Zayden as Sean was.Meanwhile, Alice was convinced that people changed. As for Zayden, he was like

Jason was dressed in a black suit, looking quite like Zayden. However, they appeared to be two completely different people. Jason seemed much friendlier than Zayden.Alice looked at him, but she sensed that his gentleness was deceptive.She said, “No, thanks. I need to return to the office and then place the order at the factory. It’s the only way I can repay the Star Group’s trust in us.”Jason said with a smile, “Oh, it seems that you really take your job very seriously. I have heard that my cousin now works for the Brown Group. Is that true? I didn’t expect that you had be able to persuade someone as conceited as him to work in a small company. He appears to be willing to do whatever you want him to.”Alice was irritated by Jason, who was speaking in such a strange tone. Impatiently, she said, “Okay, stop asking me any more questions. I think you had better to do what you have to do. Otherwise, you will be fired again, just like before.”Hearing that, Jason’s face darkened and his

Adrian was so shocked that he almost couldn’t say a single word.When he noticed Alice’s suspicious expression, he could only nod and say, “Oh, yes, it’s my mother.”Meanwhile, he thought, To be honest, I am referring to you, Alice. Why can’t you see it?”“Oh, the dreaded Oedipus complex. You know, a lot of girls do mind their boyfriends have that complex. I am going to the office now, bye.” Alice said as she reached for her bag.“Let me walk you,” Adrian said as he stood up.Alice waved her hand and then pointed to the kitchen and said, “Oh, no, you don’t have to do that. Nian’s gone to get your pizza, hasn’t she? You should wait here for her. Don’t worry, I can walk out of my own.”Alice then picked up her bag and walked out of the cafe.Nian came back after a while. As she placed the steaming pizza on the table, the iron tray clattered against the table.Nian asked, “Where is your sister?”Adrian said, “You scared the hell out of me! Can you not be so rude?”Nian’s smile vanished a

Alice saw the lights as she dashed out of the hallway.When Alice came back to her senses, she heard a cheer, “SURPRISE!”Then, confetti flew in the air. Many people, wearing various masks and costumes, were gathered at the elevator’s entrance. Among them, there were two small children with pumpkin hoods.Alice recognized that voice after she screamed.Confused, Alice asked, “Eliana, Max?”The shorter child removed her hood and smiled happily, “Hey, Mommy! It’s me!”“Huh? What are you guys doing?”“Happy Halloween, Miss Brown!”At that point, everyone in costumes removed their masks and hoods. Alice recognized that they were all her neighbors in the building.Alice, surprised, touched her forehead and said, “What are you doing?”Mona, Alice’s neighbor, approached her at that moment. She was dressed up as a Corpse Bride and wore black lipstick.She said with a smile, “Are you terrified? It’s our Halloween event, and we are scaring everyone who comes home after dark. Let me tell you, yo
