She saw Alice and Jack holding hands and sensed their relationship .

With the failed engagement between the Tremaines and Mos , and rumors of Jack having a girlfriend , Mrs.

Chen was curious but hadnt investigated , fearing Jack .

She never expected it to be the Land heiress ! Mrs.

Chen looked at Jack , now she understood why Garrett had called ; it was Jacks doing .

Mrs.

Chen started to speak to Jack , but Mrs.

Wilson interrupted .

You were going for a facial , right ? Were running out of time , lets go .

Mrs.

Wilson seemed flustered ; she rushed towards the elevator .

Alice and Jack stepped aside .

Jacks expression was unreadable ; he looked at his stepmother , unsure of her intentions .

Hed expected her to trouble Alice , but shed been surprisingly kind .

Jack had planned to confess his identity to Alice , but his stepmother hadnt said anything .

Mrs.

Despite their complex emotions , no one spoke .

Once the elevator doors closed , Mrs.

Wilson relaxed .

Exiting the elevator , she said to Mrs.

Chen , Please keep this a secret .

Mrs.

Chen looked at Julia Garcia .

That girl is no match for Julia .

* I know , but its complicated .

Mrs.

Wilson looked at Julia Garcia with guilt .

I wanted you to be my daughter in law , but no one can change Jacks mind .

Youre not young anymore ; consider dating other eligible men .

She knew Jack didnt like Julia Garcia .

Auntie Wilson , did I do something wrong ? Julia Garcia panicked ; without Mrs.

Wilsons support , she and Jack had no chance .

No , youve been wonderful .

But Jack and Alice are impossible .

Besides me , the matriarch wouldnt approve .

Mrs.

Wilson left , troubled .

Mrs.

Chen comforted Julia Garcia .

Theyre from different social circles .

If the Tremaines dont approve , Miss Garcia still has opportunities .

Men are practical when it comes to marriage .

Julia García forced a smile .

But she sensed something was off .

If Mrs.

Wilson disliked Alice , why was she so kind to her ? This was contradictory .

She needed to find out what was happening .

Upstairs , Alice looked at Jack .

Do you know Julia Garcia ? Jacks heart sank .

Yes .

Remember when we had the car accident ? She brought you food , saying your mother sent it .

Alice hadnt questioned it before , but now things were different .

Jack nodded .

My mother sent her , but I dont have a close relationship with her .

Alice understood .

Julia Garcia also knew Garrett ; they were probably friends .

Jack was restless , thinking about the encounter .

He was relieved Mrs.

Wilson hadnt revealed his identity .

Alice finished eating .

Jack hesitated .

What are you thinking ? A friend of mine is having some trouble .

What happened ? Alice thought it might be Garrett .

Hes rich , but hes hiding his identity from his girlfriend , and hes unsure whether to reveal it .

In that case , I suggest breaking up , Alice said seriously .

Jacks face paled .

Break up ? What if he doesnt want to ? If he doesnt want to break up , why wasnt he honest from the start ? Couples should be honest .

He hid his identity because he was worried she was after his money , right ? No , its not that .

Jack was flustered ; hed never been this nervous .

Then why ? Jack couldnt tell Alice the real reason .

Alice leaned closer .

Jack , somethings off .

Jack was sweating .

Alice narrowed her eyes .

Youre defending this friend SO much ; is it you ? Jack couldnt speak .

Alice laughed .

Just kidding .

I think its Garrett .

Jack was sweating ; should he confess now ? But Alice had suggested breaking up .

He didnt want to break up ! He had to find a solution .

Hed talk to Garrett .

Alice checked the time .

Lets go ; its getting late .

They left Pear Garden .

Alice saw Lewis and Chloe outside .

Youre still here ? Chloes face contorted with anger .

Theyd been left out for so long , probably because of Alice .

Lewis was furious .

Alice , did you say something to Big brother ? He hasnt come out and wont answer our calls .

Ask Ethan .

Why ask me ? Alice guessed Ethan had done it intentionally ; he likely disliked them .

Chloe said aggrievedly , Alice , I know youre upset , but this dinner was important for the foundation .

You deliberately caused trouble .

If the foundation gets in trouble , youll regret it .

Shed heard Mrs.

Chen would be there .

Impressing Mrs.

Chen was crucial for her advancement , but she couldnt even enter Pear Garden .

It was all Alices fault .

Alice was preventing her from networking with Mrs.

Chen .

Lewis grabbed Alices hand .

You have to take Chloe and me inside , or youre not leaving ! He couldnt break his promise to Chloe .
