Chapter 38 Alice had delicate features and a calm demeanor , but her eyes were stubborn , carrying a hint of rebellion .

She firmly replied , Even a hundred times , I still refuse , she said firmly .

Chloe seized the opportunity .

Brother , dont be angry .

I have a tutor helping me catch up , and Ill improve my grades soon .

Alice is working hard on her practice questions , and Im going to learn from her , I promise ! Noah chimed in , Brother , Ill handle their grades .

Dont worry .

But Ethan was furious , Stop making excuses for Alice ! I know her personality too well .

Just because Chloe came to the Welch family , shes been uncomfortable and looking for trouble ! Alice , let me tell you , no matter how much you sulk or threaten to run away , it wont change the fact that Chloe is part of our family .

Even if you leave , she wont .

Alice lowered her head , her expression unreadable .

Noah looked at her , feeling sympathy .

Alice , Brother didnt mean it that way ! Alice looked up , her gaze cold and distant .

I dont care , she replied , leaving the private room .

Noahs expression changed , wanting to chase after her , but Lu Dongs furious voice stopped him ,, Stop right there , Noah ! Youre too soft hearted , thats why shes manipulating you ! Noah sighed , Brother , its not like that .

Alice had changed .

In the past , he would have thought she was just throwing a tantrum .

But remembering her expression earlier filled him with worry ; he had never seen her look like that before .

Chloe interjected , Brother , Noah , please stop arguing .

Its my fault for not doing well on the exam .

If only I were as smart as Alice .

I wish I were as smart as Alice Ethans tone softened .

Its not your fault .

Lukes team took up your time .

Noah told me what happened .

Chloe , dont defend Alice .

Just because shes family , we wont favor her .

Chloe smiled through her tears , Thank you , Brother .

Ill work hard from now on .

In this family , Ethan was the hardest to please .

Plus , since he was rarely home , Chloe had always been a bit scared of him .

Thankfully , Alice had given her a great opportunity to shine today .

But Noah felt Ethan had misunderstood Alice .

Brother , Alice also participated in the competition .

If it werent for her efforts , we wouldnt have won the revival match .

I almost forgot .

I almost forgot .

She pretended to refuse joining the sixth team to force them to beg her , but when Chloe showed up , she felt uncomfortable and secretly practiced , just waiting to show off in front of you guys .

Brother , thats not true .

Noah felt helpless .

He saw Ethans attitude towards Alice , realizing hed been the same way .

Was that why Alice had her heart broken and distanced herself from them ? In that moment , Noah was choked up , unable to say a word .

He realized he had been unfair .

The real problem wasnt Alice ; maybe it was him .

Noah noticed Ethan and Chloe chatting amicably , seemingly forgetting Alices absence .

He felt uncomfortable ; this was supposed to be Alices celebration dinner .

He slipped away and tried calling Alice ; but there was no answer .

He texted : Alice , where are you ? Alice read the message , leaving the restroom .

Looking in the mirror , she saw her red rimmed eyes .

Shed decided not to let the Welch family affect her , yet Ethans words still stung .

She splashed cold water on her face .

In a month , she wouldnt have to endure this anymore .

Why are you here ? Alice looked up to see Jack and nervously lowered her head , Im here for dinner .

Her voice was hoarse .

Jack stepped closer , Were you crying ? Her voice sounded off , like she had been in tears .

Alice instinctively denied it , No.

Just then , the elevator opened , and Noah stepped out .

Upon seeing him , Alice immediately dashed into Jacks arms , gripping his shirt tightly .

She wished she could shrink into Jacks embrace , not wanting her second brother to see her here .

Jack was momentarily stunned , looking down at the girl clinging to him , her warmth almost intoxicating .

He felt a strange urge to create some distance .

But as soon as he moved , she wrapped her arms around his neck .

To outsiders , it looked like they were a couple in love .

Jack raised an eyebrow , surprised by her tions .

The usually composed man was at a loss for what to do .

Alice peeked out ; Noah had returned to the private room .

She realized their intimate position .

and noticed how tall Jack was .

She was almost on her tiptoes , and he had to lean down for her to wrap her arms around him .

Alice released him awkwardly .

Noah came out of the elevator , and I didnt want him to see me , so I borrowed you as a shield .

Jack squinted , probably guessing why she was here and why she was feeling down .

His voice was teasing , You could just find any guy to block for you ? Alice looked at him , surprised .

No .

Since the person standing next to her was Jack , she instinctively sought refuge in his embrace .

If it were any other guy , she wouldnt have thought of it .

Probably not .

After hearing her answer , Jack felt inexplicably better , Did you come to eat with them ? Yes .

They said it was to celebrate my good exam results .

Jack said calmly, Ranking tenth this time , not bad .

Alice felt a surge of pride .

Its okay .

I have a chance to aim for Harvard University now .

Hed said her rank wasnt good enough before .

Seeing her little smug expression , Jack smiled , Have you eaten yet ? No.

I dont want to stay here.

Because of them ? Alice nodded .
