Chapter 2 Humiliation From A Clown

Alice nodded lightly.

She looked calm, but actually, she didn't take these words to heart.

Seeing Alice's reaction, Clara was furious.

Alice was from an infamous family, and she looked devious.

Besides, she always looked expressionless.No matter what people said to her, she seemed indifferent, making people feel like they were ignored.

Alice didn't take Clara's reaction and attitude to heart.

To be honest, she could understand Clara.

After all, she was Ivan's biological mother, and she must feel unhappy when she learned that her son, whom she had always been proud of, was going to marry an orphan girl.

Actually, she felt a little guilty for Clara.If it weren't for the fear that The Williams would set her up, Alice would have canceled her marriage with Ivan.In this way, Alice could understand Clara's attitude.

Clara and Alice talked for a while at the door.

Seeing that it was almost time, they walked into the hall together.

At this time, there were many people in the room, and the well-decorated banquet hall was very lively.

The guests in dazzling costumes were smiling and talking with each other.It looked harmonious in the hall.

"Clara, why are you so late as the host?"

"Yes! What are you busy with recently? Today is Flora's birthday party.

Why are you so late?"

"What happened?"

When people in the room saw Clara, they all stepped forward to greet her warmly and totally ignored Alice, who was following Clara.

Alice had heard a lot of sarcastic remarks for a long time, and she had suffered a lot from it.Now she had expected it, and she would not have any overreaction at this moment.

Actually, she was very satisfied with their attitude now in her heart, and she hoped that they could keep it like this forever to save her some troubles to deal with them.

But things didn't always turn out as expected.

Among the people who came to the birthday party this evening, there was such a person who didn't want to let Alice go and managed to make trouble for her and humiliate her.

That was Leia, the daughter of the Clark family.Leia Clark had always disliked Alice because Alice looked much prettier than she did, and she could not be comparable to Alice.

Leia would go hard on Alice because she thought Alice stole her love Ivan and became his fiancée.

Ever since Old Mr. White announced the engagement of Ivan and Alice, Leia had always been mean to her every time she met Alice.

Leia had bad-mouthed Alice a lot and made Alice a big joke in the entire Kent City.

"Hey, here is Miss William. You are here. You are not educated at all, aren't you?"

"You know nothing about social etiquette. How could you be late for such an important occasion? "

"Hey, wait a minute! What are you holding? Could it be a birthday gift for Flora?"

After Leia greeted Clara, she talked to Alice in an unfriendly way.Seeing the simple packaging box in Alice's hands, Leia gave a mocking smile.

As she expected, poor Alice couldn't come with something precious.It must be some cheap stuff bought from a market or somewhere.

Shame on her.

"Yes."

After Alice heard what Leia said, she replied lightly and didn't pay much attention to her.

Seeing her response, Leia sneered and said, "Could it be collected from that garbage dump? It looks like a piece of shit!"

Alice didn't get mad.

She looked away and ignored her.

When other people heard the conversation here, they all subconsciously lowered their voices and waited to see what was happening.

Clara stood on the side with the same attitude as everyone else around.

She just wanted to see and didn't plan to stand up for Alice.

Although Alice was nominally her future daughter-in-law, everyone knew that she was dissatisfied with the marriage.

The reason why she didn't cancel the marriage as it was Old Mr. White's last wish.People knew about it, and they never treated Alice as a White in front of Clara in case to make her unhappy.

"You are so ill-mannered. I'm talking to you. Are you deaf?"

"Also, today is Flora's 70th birthday. What are you doing with something like a shit? What a shame!"

"If I were you, I won't be here. You have not only embarrassed yourself but also made Clara and Ivan feel ashamed."

After Leia said this, she turned around and walked to the gift table in the middle of the room and pointed to the gift on it.

And she said softly, "Open your eyes and take a good look."

"All these gifts on the table are from me.

Do you know what it is?"

"This is a box of caviar.

I have spent a lot of effort to get it, and the final offer is as high as one million dollars."

"Look at the garbage on your hands now.

How do you think it can be called a gift?"

While pointing at the pile of gifts, Leia looked at Alice meaningfully, and these words were full of irony.
