After Alice finished speaking, she went downstairs and left the banquet.
The noise upstairs had been quite loud, and many guests in the hall on the first floor had heard it.
Seeing Alice leave with her head down, the guests’ eyes all fell on her.
Without hesitation, she walked straight to the roadside and got into a taxi.
After the car had been driving for ten minutes, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
Michael’s words kept echoing in her mind, “I don’t care about Alice p>
She had given up hope on him many years ago, but at that moment, her heart still felt uncomfortable.
Thinking about the scene in the lounge, she smiled self-deprecatingly.
Just because Aurora’s faith didn’t accept premarital sex, she became Michael’s tool for venting his desires.
She was just a tool, and he didn’t even consider having sex with her as cheating.
How ridiculous was that?
Whenever Michael mentioned Aurora, he would say she was very obedient and pure.
Alice was indeed not obedient or pure; otherwise, she wouldn’t have followed him for ten years without a title, only to be dumped
in the end.
Thinking about Michael saying he was going to marry Aurora today, Alice subconsciously touched her lower belly.
They would get married and have their child.
While her and Michael’s child would remain insignificant.
Early the next morning, Alice received a call from Winter.
The staff from the projects she was previously responsible for came to discuss the renewal, and Aurora asked her to come back.
Aurora asked me to come back?” Alice felt a headache, not understanding when Aurora became hot boss.
Winter hesitated before speaking, “Yes, Mr. Johnson was also by her side at the time and didn’t say anything else. It was probably
Mr. Johnson’s idea p>
Aurora said as long as you secure the contract, the commission will be yours p>

Alice understood in her heart. Yesterday, Michael said he was going to marry Aurora, and she immediately assumed the role of
Michael’s wife.
As Michael’s wife, she naturally had the right to instruct Alice to do things.
Alice uttered one word, “Okay.” She could still use the money.
She changed into professional attire and went straight to the company.
Her foot injury had almost healed, but she still couldn’t wear high heels.
But she didn’t go directly to the reception room; instead, she went to the secretary’s office.
Aurora was very happy to see her. “Alice, I bought breakfast. You probably haven’t had breakfast yet, right p>
“No need, thank you. I’ve already eaten,” Alice politely declined.
Actually she hadn’t eaten much since she went back last night, and her stomach had been faintly aching, making it hard for her to
eat anything.
Aurora nodded. “Then have some coffee. I brought coffee for everyone, Michael’s treat p>
Michael’s name had become her’s exclusively, and she called it very smoothly now. “Alice, here’s your favorite coffee p>
Alice shook her head expressionlessly. “Sorry, I don’t want to drink coffee recently p>
Aurora’s eyes gradually turned red, and she retracted her hand in grievance. “I’m sorry, Alice, I made you upset p>
Alice didn’t say anything to her but walked to Winter’s desk.
‘Are the contract documents ready p>
Winter quickly took them out. “Yes, it’s modified according to your previous content. Please take a look p>
Alice carefully reviewed the contract and confirmed there were no issues, but she didn’t leave.
“What about the commission application form? Has Mr. Johnson signed it p>
The commission for such a large order always required Michael’s signature.
After all, it involved tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of dollars in bonuses, and the company had always had strict
procedures.
Suddenly, the office fell entirely silent.
Winter looked at her awkwardly. “It’s signed, but the applicant has changed p>

Other colleagues also looked at her and Aurora with strange expressions.
Alice understood and then directly put down the contract. “Since the commission isn’t mine, and I’m still on legal sick leave, I’ll be
leaving now p>
“Alice.” Aurora’s voice was choked with sobs.
“You’ve been with the company for a long time. Do you really need to be so calculative? Don’t you care about the company’s
interests p>
Alice turned her head and looked at her sarcastically. “Calculative? For a bonus of tens of thousands of dollars, of course, I am. f
you are not, why not reapply it in my name p>
Aurora tightly pursed her lips and said nothing.
Yesterday, Michael didn’t take her home; they went straight to the hotel.
Aurora wanted to have something happen with Michael, but he slept on the sofa all night, saying he wanted to respect her faith.
She only found it laughable.
Alice and Michael came out of the lounge one after the other, and she saw it with her own eyes.
Every time he looked at Alice, Aurora understood but pretended not to.
She thought that now, as Michael’s future wife, she could suppress Alice, but she didn’t expect Alice to be so uncooperative.
Feeling her colleagues suddenly tense up, Aurora knew Michael had arrived.
With a sobbing voice, she said, “Alice, I just wanted to contribute to the company, so I asked you to come back. Are you ignoring the company’s interests for your commission? You are a long-time employee of the Johnson Group p>
“Shut up. Alice rolled her eyes.
Alice saw Michael coming and knew Aurora was acting, but she didn’t care.
“Aurora, do you have any idea how duplicitous you are p>
“Alice!” Michael’s cold voice rang out, and everyone lowered their heads, pretending to be busy with work.
Alice didn’t even look at him and walked straight to the door.
As she passed Michael, he grabbed her wrist. “Come with me p>
I’m on sick leave. I didn’t sell myself to you, so I don’t need to listen to you p>

Alice tried to pry his hand off, but he forcefully dragged her into the office.
Aurora wanted to follow, but the office door was already closed.
Michael locked the door. “Do you have any manners p>
“I’m about to resign. How I talk to your future wife is my freedom, right p>
Alice sneered, “Michael, you signed the commission application. Don’t pretend you didn’t know p>
“I did, so what?” Michael approached, looking down at her, exuding an intimidating aura.
Alice fearlessly looked up. “Nothing. I’m quitting p>
She took a step back and tidied her long hair.
Michael smelled the familiar scent of her hair.
When Alice left, she took the shower gel and shampoo she had bought, and Michael had never found that brand of shampoo again, nor had he asked Alice about it. Now, smelling it only made him feel comfortable.
But her words always made him angry.
She walked to the door and opened it.
“Mr. Johnson, since you approved the commission for Aurora, the job is hers, and no one has the right to interfere. I can’t violate company rules and compete with a colleague for the commission, so I’m going home to recover now p>
