< Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Menu Alexander was definitely sick, and he was pretty bad. Otherwise, how could I say such things to a newly released fake heiress. If it were three years ago, she still had some confidence. Back then, she was shining like a star, the dream girl of many guys. But now, she looks pale and thin. Which normal guy would like a skeleton frame? "I was sober and serious when I said that, Alanna. Take your time to think about it and get back to me." Alexander said solemnly. Alanna's mind was a mess. She just met Alexander today, and things escalated a bit too dramatically. I wanted to say something, but my tongue was tied, couldn't say a word. Just then, the door opened and Alfred walked in from outside. Alanna nervously swallowed, "I'm out, bye." When Alfred walked in, he saw Alanna with a hint of blush on her face, which was the first time she had shown this kind of girlish shyness since she was released from prison. Alfred frowned and asked, "Who were you talking to?" Alanna replied nonchalantly, "Selling advertisements." Alfred didn't believe it, snatched the phone from Alanna's hand, and when he saw the recent call history, he was furious. "You called Uncle Alexander again? How many times do I have to tell you; our engagement is already off. Even if you beg Uncle Alexander until your head breaks, I will never agree to marry you." Alanna rolled her eyes and said, "You got it all wrong." "Misunderstanding?" Alfred sneered disdainfully, "Uncle Alexander's personal bodyguard told me in person, can it be fake? Besides, what connection do you have with Uncle Alexander, if not for this matter, what else?" Alfred deleted Alexander's contact and then gave Alanna back her phone with a frown. "If it weren't for Karlie, I wouldn't bother having any contact with you again." Listening to Alfred's impatient and hurtful words, Alanna had a moment of disbelief, "Is this still the man I loved for six whole years?" Forget it. There's nothing to say. Let it be a misunderstanding. Alanna lost interest in talking, her voice lazy, "Let's go, didn't you say you were going to buy me clothes?" Ever since the news that she was a fake rich girl spread in the circle, her old friends, as if they had made an agreement, avoided her like the plague. Reginald actually invited her to his birthday party, which was something Alanna never expected. The next evening came quickly. Alfred drove with Alanna and Karlie to the Murphy's mansion. The car wound its way up the mountain road, with towering trees on both sides. The light kept changing, sometimes bright and sometimes dark. After a while, a grand building slowly came into view. Alanna grew up in luxury and had seen a lot, but every time she entered the Murphy's mansion, she couldn't help but marvel at how insignificant the Perry family's wealth was compared to that of Murphy Family. This facade, for the Murphy family, was already as low-key and simple as possible, but to outsiders, every detail exuded luxury. Alfred got out of the car first, then opened the back door, and carefully helped Karlie out. When they saw the three of them appear at the same time, the guests in front who were chatting were immediately attracted and started < Chapter 12 whispering "Wasn't Alanna in jail? How did she get out so quickly? "Karke was so generous that she even shared a ride with her." "If it were me, I would be so embarrassed, I wouldn't have the face to come out." Hearing all the gossip around her, Karlie had a smug smile on her face, she was out to embarrass Alanna. "Alanna, don't worry about what others say, Karlie said insincerely, "Let's go inside." After that, he pretended to be tripped by Alanna and fell to the ground. "Karlie! Alfred exclaimed and quickly helped Karlie up. Are you okay?" Karlie shook her head, I'm fine, don't blame Alanna." Menu "Alanna!" Alfred glared at Alanna, "Are you blind? You know Karlie has a blood disease, and you still tripped her. Are you doing it on purpose?"
