Marry A Hidden Billionaire By Rosalind Stevenson
âMiss Doyle, please do not be like this⦠I apologize. I truly did not anticipate becoming a source of trouble for you,â
Vivian spoke softly. As she said, she reached out her hands, intending to touch Daniel.
However, Alice raised her hand, her expression holding a hint of a smile but her words carrying a frosty edge as she warned, saying, âHold on, Iâm at the very least the lawful wife here. Until I give the signal, keep your claws away from him, understood?â
Upon hearing that, Vivianâs hand paused midair, her complexion slightly paling.
For some inexplicable reason, Aliceâs aura at this moment had an overwhelming effect on her.
She shifted her gaze between Alice and Daniel, her voice carrying a tinge of frustration as she said, âDaniel, you need to clarify things to Alice⦠Iâm not the third party, and neither are youâ¦
Alice interjected, her arms wrapped around herself. Directing a smile at Daniel, she rejected, saying, âThere is no need to explain. The both of you are revolting!â
Those final words drained Danielâs face of color. His focus on Alice held a complex turmoil, an enigma concealed within his eyes.
Then, Alice cast a glance at Theo, snapped her fingers, and spun around with her pride intact. Swiftly pushing open the door to the hospital room, she strode forward, intending to leave.
Daniel caught on and hurried after her, his voice raspy as he pleaded, saying, âAlice, Iâm sorry, please do not go.â
Please donât leave him. He had realized his mistake.
Alice had upheld a façade of strength for a while, but those words shattered her entirely.
Tears welled in her eyes.
But, it did not fall.
She could not permit herself to be fragile, to shed tears.
What Vivian wished to witness, she would not unveil!
What Daniel yearned for, she would not grant.

âYou two, what gives you the right to stop us? Leave us alone!â Theo confronted the two as if they were archenemies. He turned and moved toward Alice to offer his support.
Yet Alice patted his hand, took a deep breath, suppressed the emotions in her eyes, curved her lips upward, and turned leisurely.
âDaniel, your apology means nothing to me!â Alice replied. As her gaze rested on him, she chose her words deliberately, saying, âIf you had deceived me, maybe I could have looked past it. But you wove a collective deception with everyone around you!
âBesides that, you were fully aware of Vivianâs feelings for you. Yet, you allowed her to linger by your side. Even when she approached me, you remained indifferent! What do you think this means?
âIs this some twisted amusement for the wealthy, or are you gambling on whether I would ever uncover the truth or if youâd emerge unscathed? Sorry, I do not intend to let you off unscathed!â
As she spoke, Alice pulled out her phone, opened WhatsApp, and shook it in Danielâs direction.
She taunted, saying, âI have the contact of numerous entertainment reporters here, and I am sure they would relish the scandals involving Mr. Kaur!â
âMiss Doyle, please do not do that⦠I know that youâre with Daniel, not for his money. You canât expose him and tarnish his reputation like this,â Vivian replied tensely.
If Alice had taken the initiative to expose this incident, the public pressure would likely prevent Daniel from seeking a divorce.
Furthermore, Alice might be shot into stardom due to this incident.
This was the last thing Alice hoped for.
Alice scoffed, her hand waving dismissively before saying, âMr. Kaur and Miss Hand, you are mistaken. As for me⦠I love money! If you want to silence me, I have a splendid suggestionâ¦â
She paused after mid-sentence, reminding herself not to reveal any hint of affection. Absolutely not!
She proposed, saying, âI am Daniel Kaurâs secret wife, and Iâve been lied to by his entire family!
For every word, I charge 2

million dollars. Transfer 30 million dollars to my account within three days, and this matter remains concealed! As for divorce⦠well, that has a separate price!
âAfter I receive the money, Iâll forward you a list of fees. If you can afford it, we will expedite the divorce, and Iâll bestow upon you a symbolic red envelope to bless your relationship. If you canât pay me, Iâll continue holding this position!â Adopting the appearance of the most detested vicious second female lead, Alice turned to face Daniel and Vivian. She elongated her tone, saying, âMiss Hand, remember this. As long as I do not divorce, even if you, Miss Hand can only remain a third wheel for the rest of your life!â
