"Miss, you are needed in the main living room," a young maid respectfully informed the young lady who was wilting sitting by the window, unfocused.
When the young lady heard that, she hummed in response, without looking at the maid.
The maid didn't say more but left after getting the response.
Alice sighed dejectedly for the umpteenth time, feeling not too good about herself.
Until now, she didn't even understand how things turned out this way.
One second, she was confronting Briar and the next, the other was lying unconscious in the hospital as if she would never wake up.
Even when she knows that she isn't guilty, how could she claim her innocence when the other took such a drastic method of dealing with the matter?
What bothered Alice was how cold her family members had been towards her. Even after explaining herself to her brother and blurting the truth of what happened years ago, she could tell that Logan didn't fully believe her, and it hurt her heart.
