Chapter 120
Alice remembered the tampered stationery. Davis was likely responsible.
In her previous life, Davis always sided with Chloe, whispering lies about Alice to her brothers.
She kicked open the door and said coldly, “This house was bought by my parents. I’m the only one who can decide not to come back. You’re a servant. Remember your place!”
Alice walked straight inside.
Davis was surprised by her change. He followed her.“Ms. Alice, this was Mr. Ethan’s order. I was just following instructions.”
Entering the hall, Noah came down, his face beaming.“Alice, you’re back! I told the kitchen to prepare your favorite dishes. It’s been a while since we have dinner together.”
“No need. Where’s my acceptance letter?”
Her tone was cold.
Noah
gave a wry smile. “In the study. Come with me.”
She followed, but he went to her old room.“Alice, your room is ready. Chloe moved back to hers. If anything’s wrong, just let me know.”
Alice looked around her room.
She stayed calm.“No need. I won’t be back.”
Noah sighed. “This is our parents‘ house. It’s your room. No one can replace you.”
Alice went to the study.“Let’s get to the point.”
She wasn’t swayed by small gestures.
Noah showed her the acceptance letter.“You’re brilliant. You got into Harvard University. Mom and Dad would be so proud.”
“Don’t use Mom and Dad as an excuse. It’s disgusting.”
Alice glanced at it and realized that the email had been seen.
Her face changed.“Why did you check my email?”
“Alice, I didn’t. I know this is your acceptance letter. You should open it.”
Alice showed him the email.“It’s clearly been opened. Are you blind?”
“Davis, come here!”
Noah was puzzled. He hadn’t checked the email.
Noah coldly asked Davis, “Besides me, who else has been in the study?”
Davis glanced at the email.“Mr. Noah, it’s just an acceptance letter. Nothing is missing…”
Alice glared at Davis.“Did you open it?”
“I was curious about the acceptance letter. So I checked it briefly.”
Alice didn’t believe it was Davis.
Chloe was likely involved!
Alice turned to Noah.“Check the security footage.”

She wouldn’t let this go.
Noah nodded.“Alice, I’ll investigate.”
Alice’s gaze was cold. She didn’t need anyone’s investigation.
She would handle this herself.
Davis panicked. No need. It was me. Blame me.”
“Davis, the footage hasn’t even been checked, and you’re confessing? Who are you covering for?”
Alice was furious.
Since Davis was provoking her, she wouldn’t hold back.
Noah noticed Davis’s strange behavior.“Tell the truth. Who else was in the study?”
Davis stammered, unable to speak.
Noah guessed the truth.“Chloe! Get her here!”
‘Ms. Black is studying in her room. Let’s talk later. It’s not a big deal!”
Noah was shocked.
Davis dared to disregard Alice. Alice had endured so much.
Noah threw a cup at Davis.“I said get Chloe here! Can’t you hear?”
Davis was terrified and left.
Noah couldn’t meet Alice’s eyes. “Alice, I didn’t expect this. Did Davis always treat you like this?”
Alice leaned against the desk, her expression mocking.“I’m used to it.”
Those few words weighed heavily on Noah.
Alice was “used” to it.
Noah trembled with anger at the opened email.
Soon, Chloe and Davis entered. Chloe knew what happened.
Men
Chloe, eyes red, said pitifully, “Noah, it’s my fault. I was curious about the acceptance letter. I just checked it briefly. Don’t be angry!”
Noah slumped into a chair, speechless.
He felt a wave of disgust towards Chloe’s feigned remorse.
Would he have dismissed it as insignificant before, believing that Alice shouldn’t mind since Chloe apologized?
Noah felt cold dread.
His indulgence had emboldened Chloe and Davis.
Noah’s face hardened. “Chloe, apologize to Alice!”
Chloe turned to Alice, feigning weakness.“Alice, I’m sorry. My score is canceled. I’m envious of your acceptance letter. Don’t be angry, okay?”
“No.”
Alice said coldly.
Chloe gritted her teeth. I’ll do anything to apologize!”

Chloe only checked the letter.
She did it to spite Alice.
A few tears and apologies would fix it.
“You said so yourself.”
Alice slapped Chloe with all her might.
Chloe was stunned.“Why did you hit me?”
“You’ll do anything to apologize. You asked for it.”
Alice said, slapping Chloe again. She grabbed Chloe’s hair with red eyes.“I warned you not to touch my things. You didn’t learn the lesson!”
Alice knew Chloe did it on purpose.
Chloe’s face swelled. She cried for help.“Noah, help me!”
Noah clenched his fists.“Chloe, you said you could do anything to
could do anything to apologize. Keep your word!”
Chloe was stunned.
She’d only been being polite!
Davis tried to pull Alice away.“Ms. Alice, why are you hitting Ms. Black? She didn’t steal anything. Why are you so petty? It was just an acceptance letter!”
