Chapter 155: Chapter 155

“You shower.” Pick a fight. Alice did not give you a hard time today. What land’s pedalare?

He continued, “You should put your grudges behind you since she and I divorced. I will retire the AVICA MAYAMANIA’s Mandal.”

From then on, she and I will have nothing to do with each other.

After that, he did not speak to Lana until the Maybach arrived at Searence Sh.

Silently cursing out Alice upstairs, he left her with a glum look.

Lana gritted her teeth, thinking that she hadn’t done anything wrong. It was Alice who had robbed her of the marriage and cleaned for three years. A couple of taunts were nothing. Even if she were to kill Alice, that wouldn’t be enough to get her revenge.

Why would Jasper side with Alice? Why?

Half an hour later, Jasper descended the stairs in casual wear with Mrs. Posie at his heels. Halfway through, he overheard three women laughing and chatting in the living room.

Berty complained, “We should really change the chef. We’ve been served crap since Alice left. I suppose she isn’t totally useless; she’s pretty good at cooking.”

Lana wondered aloud, “Did Alice have to prepare your meals daily?”

Berty replied, “Of course! That country bumpkin had to prove her worth somehow after marrying up. The maids were talking behind her back, saying that she was a nanny with the empty title of Mrs. Beckett. She might be a princess on paper, but she was only a pauper in reality!”

Jasper looked hostile as he clenched his fists.

Sophia chimed in, “I thought she’d cave in and get a divorce after one year. Jasper gave her the cold shoulder, and everyone in the family snubbed her. I was surprised when she took it all in for three years before getting a divorce. I couldn’t have survived that if I were her. She was pretty hardy.”

Berty agreed. “Thankfully, Lana’s back. If not, I bet Alice would have hung around longer–that shameless bitch!”

Jasper could not take it anymore and growled, “Are you done?”

The air immediately froze.

“Jasper, we were...” Lana shot up to explain herself.

“You shouldn’t be talking behind Alice’s back when you have received her kindness,” he cut her off with such seriousness that she muttered.

Sophia and Berty scowled.

“What are you talking about? We...”

“Not only did you not appreciate Alice’s hard work, but you also treated her as a joke. Do you think you can walk all over me?” The look in his eyes sent a chill down their spines.

They were shocked by the way he mentioned Alice. In his three years of marriage to Alice, he rarely called her by her name. As a result of his cold treatment, everyone in the family perceived Alice to be a pushover.

To their surprise, he now referred to Alice by her name, as though he was close with her during the marriage.

The three women looked pale. The other maids were quiet.

“Alice was once my wife. I will not allow anyone to humiliate her, especially within our family.” Gritting his teeth and frowning, he warned Sophia, Berty, and Lana, “As a wife and daughter, you’d better have some class. Don’t make a fool of yourselves!”
