“Miss Doyle, please do not be like this… I apologize. I truly did not anticipate becoming a source of
trouble for you,” Vivian spoke softly. As she said, she reached out her hands, intending to touch Daniel.
However, Alice raised her hand, her expression holding a hint of a smile but her words carrying a frosty
edge as she warned, saying, “Hold on, I’m at the very least the lawful wife here. Until I give the signal,
keep your claws away from him, understood?”
Upon hearing that, Vivian’s hand paused midair, her complexion slightly paling.
For some inexplicable reason, Alice’s aura at this moment had an overwhelming effect on her.
She shifted her gaze between Alice and Daniel, her voice carrying a tinge of frustration as she said,
“Daniel, you need to clarify things to Alice… I’m not the third party, and neither are you…
Alice interjected, her arms wrapped around herself. Directing a smile at Daniel, she rejected, saying,
“There is no need to explain. The both of you are revolting!”
Those final words drained Daniel’s face of color. His focus on Alice held a complex turmoil, an enigma
concealed within his eyes.
Then, Alice cast a glance at Theo, snapped her fingers, and spun around with her pride intact. Swiftly
pushing open the door to the hospital room, she strode forward, intending to leave.
Daniel caught on and hurried after her, his voice raspy as he pleaded, saying, “Alice, I’m sorry, please
do not go.”
Please don’t leave him. He had realized his mistake.
Alice had upheld a façade of strength for a while, but those words shattered her entirely.
Tears welled in her eyes.
But, it did not fall.
She could not permit herself to be fragile, to shed tears.
What Vivian wished to witness, she would not unveil!
What Daniel yearned for, she would not grant.

“You two, what gives you the right to stop us? Leave us alone!” Theo confronted the two as if they were
archenemies. He turned and moved toward Alice to offer his support.
Yet Alice patted his hand, took a deep breath, suppressed the emotions in her eyes, curved her lips
upward, and turned leisurely.
“Daniel, your apology means nothing to me!” Alice replied. As her gaze rested on him, she chose her
words deliberately, saying, “If you had deceived me, maybe I could have looked past it. But you wove a
collective deception with everyone around you!
“Besides that, you were fully aware of Vivian’s feelings for you. Yet, you allowed her to linger by your
side. Even when she approached me, you remained indifferent! What do you think this means?
“Is this some twisted amusement for the wealthy, or are you gambling on whether I would ever uncover
the truth or if you’d emerge unscathed? Sorry, I do not intend to let you off unscathed!”
As she spoke, Alice pulled out her phone, opened WhatsApp, and shook it in Daniel’s direction. She
taunted, saying, “I have the contact of numerous entertainment reporters here, and I am sure they
would relish the scandals involving Mr. Kaur!”
“Miss Doyle, please do not do that… I know that you’re with Daniel, not for his money. You can’t expose
him and tarnish his reputation like this,” Vivian replied tensely.
If Alice had taken the initiative to expose this incident, the public pressure would likely prevent Daniel
from seeking a divorce.
Furthermore, Alice might be shot into stardom due to this incident.
This was the last thing Alice hoped for.
Alice scoffed, her hand waving dismissively before saying, “Mr. Kaur and Miss Hand, you are mistaken.
As for me… I love money! If you want to silence me, I have a splendid suggestion…”
She paused after mid-sentence, reminding herself not to reveal any hint of affection. Absolutely not!
She proposed, saying, “I am Daniel Kaur’s secret wife, and I’ve been lied to by his entire family! For
every word, I charge 2

million dollars. Transfer 30 million dollars to my account within three days, and this matter remains
concealed! As for divorce… well, that has a separate price!
“After I receive the money, I’ll forward you a list of fees. If you can afford it, we will expedite the divorce, Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
and I’ll bestow upon you a symbolic red envelope to bless your relationship. If you can’t pay me, I’ll
continue holding this position!” Adopting the appearance of the most detested vicious second female
lead, Alice turned to face Daniel and Vivian. She elongated her tone, saying, “Miss Hand, remember
this. As long as I do not divorce, even if you, Miss Hand can only remain a third wheel for the rest of
your life!”
