Gluey Love Between Us
Chapter 2190

Alice thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Juliet, I really didn't lie to you this time. It will take some time for me to go back. I have a job here."

"Alas!" Juliet pouted her pink and tender lips in anger. She was extremely disappointed. "Mom, I scored a hundred in my test. Grandma said that I often scored 100% so she doesn't even need to praise me anymore. Isn't 100% a good thing?"

"Haha..." Alice was amused. "It's your fault for being so smart. Your grandma is not praising you everyday because it's getting boring, but if you get 99% next time, she will definitely have something to say." "No, I really don't understand what you adults are thinking about day after day. Isn't getting full marks good?"

"Good, it's very good. You, my daughter, are the best!" Alice couldn't wait to go back and touch her daughter's little face. She was so cute.

What was the point of crying over that b*stard? Back then, she really should have taken him to court so as not to make herself sad.

"Where's your brother?" Alice didn't see her son. She always felt that her son was off causing trouble again.

Juliet shifted the video over. At that moment, Marlon was sitting cross-legged on the sofa and watching TV. He was holding a potato chip in his hand and eating with relish. He looked like a playboy, mischievous and lazy.

His facial features resembled his father's. Seeing this familiar face, Alice felt sad again.

"Mom, good night!" After saying hello, Marlon looked at the TV again.

She asked, "Marlon, are you done with your homework?" Her son was always naughty, which made her worried.

"I'm done. Mom, when have I ever worried you about my homework? Juliet scored 100%. Didn't I also score 100%?" He pouted arrogantly.

He looked exactly like Henrick when he was a child.

When she first met Henrick, she was only one year older than the children were now.

"You should sit properly. Look at you. What do you look like?" Alice looked at her son and scolded him softly.

"Mom, can we come and replace you during the holidays?" Juliet asked with a smile. They would have five days off. She missed her mother so much. Marlon suddenly looked at his mother with hope.

Alice thought for a while. At that time, she should be very busy. Even if the children came, she would only be able to see them for a short while.

She looked at her daughter and son apologetically. Looking at her daughter's expectant eyes, she really couldn't bear to say it out loud. However, lying to them would make them even more upset.

"Juliet."

"Alice, just let the children go. I will send them there. They will be very happy to see you even if it's for a short while."

Aubri glanced at the dejected Marlon and whispered, "Don't think that he doesn't care. He misses you so much. Every time he comes home after school, he would go to your room and almost cry." Alice felt sad.

"Mom, bring them here. I'll try my best to spend some time with all of you." With her mother following them, she was relieved.

Aubri took a deep look at her daughter and at Marlon. In fact, no matter how her daughter hid it, they all knew the reason.

How could a mother not know what her daughter was thinking?

"Well, work hard, eat well, and get enough rest. Don't worry about other things. I will take good care of them." Aubri looked at her daughter and smiled dotingly.

Alice looked at her mother and almost burst into tears. When she found out that she was pregnant, she almost didn't think much of it, so she decided to give birth to the babies.

The Clarke family was a well-known aristocratic family in Lemmon City, but she would be laughed at by many people if they knew that she was pregnant out of wedlock.

However, when she told her parents about her decision, they only scolded her. It was not just because she was pregnant, but because she was still young and had to bear these hardships. Her parents loved her dearly.

At that time, she was very touched. Everyone wanted their children to be happy.

Hanging up the phone, Alice sat alone on the sofa in a daze. That night, she had gone to the Alwynn family home and they all treated her very well.

Eden and Victor were both good people, but why was Henrick such a jerk?

She couldn't figure it out and didn't want to think about it. Since she had decided to give up on him, she had to bury all her thoughts in her heart and raise the children well. In the future, they would be her biggest support.

Alice always had a lot of reasons to figure it out. After she thought through everything, she drank her herbal tea and went back to her room to rest.

When she went to work the next day, she was in a much better mood. She deliberately went to the company earlier because she didn't want to meet Henrick.

However, the road must be narrow for enemies!

Henrick also had the same thought. In order not to meet Alice, he came very early.

Only the two of them were the first ones to arrive at the company.

They happened to bump into each other in front of Alice's office door.

He was speechless.

She was lost for words as well.

"Hmph!" She snorted coldly and walked into her office.

He turned around in a daze and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

Looking at her just now, she was as arrogant as she could be.

"Haha." He felt that she had nothing to say except to sneer.

However, he was not reconciled.

He chased after Alice and went into her office.

She sat on the sofa and took out her breakfast.

She had just taken a bite of her food when she saw Henrick enter.

"Get out. What are you doing here?" She questioned harshly. She was eating something, so her words were a little vague, but it didn't affect her momentum.

He already had a woman he liked, who was in the same company. She didn't want her job to be affected.

Upon hearing this, he, who had tossed and turned all night, was not in a good mood.

"Alice, seven years ago..."

"Shut up, Henrick. I've told you that seven years have passed, and I haven't bothered you for the past seven years. You can talk about what happened seven years ago at will, but it doesn't mean that I can easily talk about the past. What I regret most in my life is that I went to you that night and lost my innocence. Thus, get lost!" Her words were emotionless.

Indeed, she regretted falling in love with this b*stard.

"Haha..." The usually sharp-tongued Henrick felt the blood rush to his head and his vision went black in anger. Could it be that she had been innocent that night?

"Alice, did you set me up that year?" He was so angry that he couldn't help asking.

As soon as he said that, he regretted it a little bit. In fact, he would know if it was true after watching the surveillance video.

She was stunned. She put down the food in her hand and stood up. There was only pain and anger in her big watery eyes. His eyes flashed, but he didn't dare to look straight at her. Instead, he looked away guiltily.
