Luke had already asked Alice's hand in marriage.
However, Alice didn't have a lot of time to spend with him and to enjoy undisturbed intimate
conversations.
On new year's eve, Luke proposed to Alice.
However, Alice flew to Beicity early the next morning to attend a shooting for a gala.
Alice stayed in Beocity for two days and flew to S City.
Last night, she was able to return home at around eight o'clock in the evening.
Alice's loud and angry voice welcomed Katherine's ears as soon as she entered the office.
She raised her eyebrows as she softly knocked on the door, "Hey, it's me” she muttered.
As soon as she heard her friend's voice, Alice hurriedly dashed to the door to open it.
"Hi, Katherine! Did you miss me?" she greeted and opened her arms, aiming for an embrace.
Katherine glanced at her and moved sideways to avoid her embrace.
"What happened? Who are you fighting with?"
Katherine didn't ask Alice to prepare an office for her, so every time she visited the company, she would
always head to Alice's office.
Katherine was very familiar with her.
She walked past Alcie and plopped down on the huge sofa.
Then, she raised her head and looked at Alice.
"I heard your voice before I entered the door” she said.
Alice was so mad.
She couldn't help but burst out in front of Katherine when she was asked why she sounded so furious
earlier.
"I still don't know who it is.I was just informed that a marketing account contacted Helen and said that
someone took a picture of Luke's proposal and asked him to reveal it!"
Alice spat out.
Luke had already proposed to her, but their relationship still remained confidential to the public.
The people who were invited that particular night were Luke and Alice's acquaintances only.
They couldn't do such a thing.
Katherine raised her eyebrows in curiosity.
"Who gave you the photo?"
"It's someone I don't know” Alice answered in a frustrated tone.
She took out her phone and handed the video to Katherine.
"Do you know him?" she asked Katherine.
Glancing at her, Katherine shook her head and pursed her lips.
"I don't know him."
Alice was so furious that her face turned red just by thinking about the person who betrayed her.
"That person should pray that I wouldn't be able to find them.Because if I catch them, I'll really let them
know what regret is" Alice uttered in a furious tone.
Katherine laughed and stared at Alice.
"Really? What if this person is not afraid to fight back?" she asked.
Alice was taken aback by Katherine's words.
Right after she heard her, Alice's face immediately froze, and it was as if she couldn't breathe anymore.
"What am I supposed to do? Let them ruin me while I suffer in silence?" she asked.
Katherine took the hot tea that Helen offered her.
She took a sip before giving her advice to Alice.
"You should find out who it is first" Alice's eyes widened.
"Oh my gosh, Katherine! Your words just gave me relief’’ Katherine clicked her tongue.
"Did you just say that on purpose so I would hear that?"
"What? No! Do I look like that kind of person?" Alice exclaimed.
Katherine remained silent and just looked at Alice with a smirk on her face.
Alice coughed lightly and looked away.
She felt guilty under Katherine's gaze.
"Let's get down to business” she said smoothly.
Katherine took another sip of the hot tea and lazily lifted her eyes to Alice.
"Go ahead?” she replied.
When she heard Alice ask when she would arrive on the phone, Katherine immediately predicted that
she might be trying to pull some strings again.
"It's not a big deal, Katherine! The company's annual meeting will be held soon, right? I think there will
be a lot of people, and it's also difficult to decide where the event will happen.Why don't we just hold
the annual meeting on your yacht?" Alice said.
Katherine sighed as she put down her teacup.
Her beautiful eyes stared at Alice.
"It's not a big deal, right?" she further asked.
"Uhm...Think about it, Katherine! Isn't my idea perfect to save a lot of money for our company?"
Katherine rolled her eyes and snorted as if Alice's suggestions were ridiculous.
"I don't need that bit of money we're going to save"
"Well, I...I do!"
Alice stammered.
Since Luke and Alice were already engaged, weren't both of them already close to getting married?
Alice thought about her savings and her future, and now she wanted to save even a single cent.
"No” Katherine calmly said as she placed her chin on her palm, still looking at Alice.
"Katherine!" Alice exclaimed. She hugged Katherine's arms and pouted cutely.
"Katherine, please..."
On the other hand, Katherine couldn't help but laugh at her friend’s behavior.
"Who did you learn this from?"
She found it too corny and annoying.
However, Alice didn't care whether it was annoying or what; she only cared about whether it was useful
or not! Katherine gathered all her energy to remove her arms from Alice's embrace.
However, Alice was too stubborn.
She hugged her arm again and shook it a few more times.
"Katherine, please! Have mercy on your friend! Please, Katherine!"
