Chapter 91
Alice wasn’t surprised by the outcome.
It was inevitable.
If Luke hadn’t chosen Chloe as the gunner and hired a skilled player, they might not have lost so badly.
They might have even won.
But Luke chose Chloe as the gunner. Did he want to prove she was good enough?
Luke hadn’t changed.
Alice smiled, wondering if Luke was satisfied.
Anyway, Alice was.
In her previous life, she was about to win the championship, only to be replaced by Chloe at the last minute.
This time, Alice would watch Luke lose.
Grim–faced Luke left the stage.
The winning team accepted interviews. Their captain looked at Alice.“This was an easy win. We expected to be eliminated. Alice’s absence gave us a chance.”
If Alice, who could launch 12 strikes continuously, had competed, they wouldn’t have won.
Alice was drinking while reporters handed her microphones.“Ms. Welch, what do you think of the match?”
“There are wins and losses. The champion represents everyone’s efforts.”
She gave a diplomatic response.
Alice then stood up and looked at Jane.“Jane, let’s go.”
Watching Alice’s departing figure, Noah went to the locker room and found Luke berating Chloe.
Chloe was crying, feeling wronged. She had done her best, but the team hadn’t supported her.
Noah went over.“You must be tired. Get into the car.”
All the other team members left. Chloe wiped her tears.“Noah, I have tried my best.”
“I know. Go with them.”
Chloe didn’t want to stay here any longer. So, she left.
Luke was frustrated.“Noah, do you think Chloe has tried her best? She wasn’t even a tenth as good as Alice. I trusted her!”
“It’s not Chloe’s fault. You knew her skill level yet let her compete. You wanted to annoy Alice but deserved.”

Luke felt aggrieved. He admitted he had that intention but hadn’t expected Chloe to be so bad.
Luke thought Chloe had improved.
However, she didn’t.
“Luke, Chloe tried. Don’t blame her. You drove Alice away. You can only blame yourself.”

Luke slumped in his chair.“I haven’t adapted to Alice’s changes. She changed too quickly. I thought she was just angry with me.”
I warned you, but you didn’t believe me. Think about it.”
Noah had said everything he could.
Luke sat down and covered his face, overwhelmed by complex emotions.
He realized something was missing without Alice.

Alice was surrounded by fans after leaving the venue.
She finally hailed a taxi.
Back at the apartment, she relaxed.
Andrew sat on the sofa.“Alice, is it satisfying to watch them lose?”
“Yes.”
Alice went over and sat down. She knew the outcome, but seeing it happen was satisfying.
*Alice, someone made a funny video with commentary on the match.“–
Alice watched the video of Chloe’s disastrous performance with hilarious commentary.
*Chloe, your tears came before your bullets.”
“Chloe, you’re a gunner, not a protected princess! Protect the team!”
Alice smiled, Chloe will probably do a livestream and cry about this if she sees it.”
Alice was right.
Chloe issued a statement threatening to sue the video creator for defamation.
Landing Team’s loss became a source of amusement for days.
But then, Alice received a call from Ethan.“Alice, you didn’t take part in the finals. What’s wrong? You shouldn’t
have a tantrum at such a time!”
Alice’s tone was sarcastic.“Luke drove me away and couldn’t find a replacement. To maintain his dignity, he lost!”
“You know Luke well. He just felt too embarrassed to ask you. As his sister, you should have been more proactive.”
Alice’s tone was cold after she heard Ethan’s lecture. “No way.”
Alice hung up as soon as she finished, and her good mood was ruined.
She realized she had been too accommodating in the past, leading her family to ignore her and exploit her.
Alice wasn’t that naive anymore.
Alice slept well after venting her past frustrations.
Soon after the finals, the exam results came out.
Alice couldn’t sleep the night before. She kept waiting at her computer.
Jack came with fruit.“Don’t be nervous. Have more faith in yourself.”

“I’m a little ansious. I want to see the results”
Alice knew the outcome of many things, but not this.
Andrew arrived with snacks before putting them on the table, “Let’s eat and wel. This is for fire chew that have
waited for exam results.”
“Didn’t you take the SAT?”
Alice gave them a look of surprise.
Jack looked at Andrew and explained, “We were recommended for admission without taking event
“Yes, early admission.”
Andrew almost had a slip of the tongue.
In their case, they were either admitted early or studied abroad,
Alice was impressed, “Were you admitted early to Harvard University?
“Alice, you got it. You’re so smart,”
“I didn’t expect you to be so talented!”
Alice was surprised to hear that they were admitted early.
Andrew nervously changed the subject.“It’s almost time. Alice, open the website. It might be slow later.”
Alice didn’t ask more questions.
She took a deep breath and logged in.
When it was time, she entered her details and clicked “results“.
The results appeared, but Alice was confused.“Why are there only asterisks?
She wondered, “Does the website crash?”
