Listen to this chapter:

Alaricka waited for Kieranโ€™s request.

Kieran suddenly said, โ€œWere you that scared just now?โ€

โ€œYeah.โ€

Alaricka answered bluntly and indifferently; she really didnโ€™t want to get too involved with Kieran in this matter. But gradually, she realized this car wasnโ€™t heading toward her home at all.

She frowned, โ€œWhere are you taking me?โ€

Kieran closed his eyes to rest and said quietly, โ€œIโ€™ll take you to the hospital for a checkup.โ€

Alaricka frowned. โ€œNo, Iโ€™m fine.โ€

Kieran didnโ€™t reply to her, and the assistant didnโ€™t show any sign of turning back either.

Alaricka clenched her fingers and shut her eyes to endure it. Halfway there, Kieranโ€™s phone suddenly rang. Alaricka turned her head to look. On the screen, it said in big letters: โ€œRose.โ€

Kieran picked up the phone. His voice was still as deep as always, but Alaricka could tell it was a bit softer. โ€œDid you need something from me?โ€

Roschelle sobbed, โ€œKier, I accidentally fell. Can you come take me to the hospital?โ€

Kieranโ€™s eyebrows twitched a little, and a flash of worry quickly passed through his dark eyes. โ€œWait for me. Iโ€™ll come pick you up.โ€

Alaricka turned her head knowingly and quietly waited for the assistant to stop the car. Sure enough, after Kieran put down his phone, the assistant just pulled the car over to the side of the road.

Ding dongโ€”

There was a message on Alarickaโ€™s phone, and she picked it up to check. โ€œYour account received 10,000.โ€

Kieran said, โ€œThe hospital wasnโ€™t far from here, just take a cab yourself.โ€

Sure enough, Roschelle was Kieranโ€™s first choice. Before Kieran finished talking, she looked up and got out of the car without any hesitation.

Looking at the Rolls-Royce, which obviously sped up a lot, the corners of her mouth curled into a sarcastic smile. She turned around, got a cab, didnโ€™t go to the hospital, and went straight back to her rented place.

In the rental room, Tamika was watching a soap opera on TV with a worried look.

Tamika saw her, and her eyes lit up. โ€œDid Mr. Argent go to find you?โ€

Alaricka bent down to change her shoes, her tone cool: โ€œRight now heโ€™s probably with Roschelle, all lovey-dovey.โ€

Tamikaโ€™s smile froze, and she said awkwardly, โ€œDid you beg him? Beg him to let us go back? Weโ€™ve been living here all this time; itโ€™s not right.โ€

After changing her shoes, Alaricka straightened up and looked at Tamika with clear eyes. Alarickaโ€™s voice was cool and clear: โ€œYou just had to hit a brick wall before youโ€™d wake up, huh?โ€

Tamika looked at her face and just couldnโ€™t help feeling a little sad. At first, she didnโ€™t have the idea of letting Alaricka marry into the Argent family; she just wanted to live a peaceful life. But Alarickaโ€™s father died to save Wallace, and eight-year-old Alaricka was taken into the Argentโ€™s villa and raised with the Argent familyโ€™s kids.

When Alaricka was a kid, she looked super cute. As she grew up, Tamika noticed that Alaricka had even brighter eyes and whiter teeth. Plus, since she was raised by Wallace, her vibe was just as classy as a real rich girl. Even with Clarissa and Roschelle standing next to Alaricka, they couldnโ€™t outshine Alaricka. Instead, they actually made Alaricka look even more stunning and charming. Even being the wife of a rich family, she was more than enough.

The real reason I wanted Alaricka to marry into the Argent family was that one time Alaricka suddenly had a high fever and couldnโ€™t even stand. It was Kieran who picked her up and carried her to get a doctor. At that time, Alaricka and Kieran were close. The vibe between them was warm and nice, and they joked and laughed together. She also saw that there was love brewing in Alarickaโ€™s eyes when she looked at Kieran.

It was just that after Roschelle came back, everything was different. The relationship between the two got tense, even hostile. Thinking of this, Tamika just couldnโ€™t help but beat her chest and stamp her feet. She thought Kieran liked Alaricka too, but it turned out she was wrong. Kieran didnโ€™t have those kinds of feelings for Alaricka at all; he really just saw Alaricka as a little sister.

Alaricka looked at the dining table and the kitchen. It was obvious Tamika hadnโ€™t made dinner today. This was within her expectations. She put the food she bought on the table and said quietly, โ€œItโ€™s late, eat.โ€

Tamika sat across with a long face, and Alaricka quietly watched her. In her last life, Tamika was the mother of a vicious supporting character, and things didnโ€™t end well for herโ€”in fact, it was pretty tragic.
