Chapter 163 Signing
"If you agree to this agreement, sign your name. I have a full schedule." Janet urged, putting the pen in Alice's hands. Pinching the pen, Alice signed her name on the agreement seriously.
Janet was always impatient, but she had waited two hours for Alice today.
She finally got what she wanted. Ignoring Alice's face, she snatched the agreement from her hand.
"What are you looking at? We're done now. Here's your five million Yuan check." Janet tossed the check on the desk. Alice didn't pick it up.
Janet didn't really care, so she just got her purse and was ready to leave. However, Alice clutched at her hands.
"Take it away. I don't need it. Just remember to send my mom home."
Alice felt taking the money would be a humiliation to herself. This was why she can't accept Edward's love all this time. But Janet did not care whether Alice wanted this money or not. Janet left with the check. She finally took care of Alice and was eager to share this exciting news to other people.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Joanna was the only person that can resonate with her on this matter, so she called Joanna right away. It had been a while since they spoke to each other.
"What?"
Joanna couldn't believe in what she's heard. Did Alice agree to leave Edward? It's impossible. Five years of time didn't separate them, so why would they just break up for no reason? "You didn't hear it wrong. Alice finally left. I still have her agreement here. Joanna, you haven't visited me for a while. When will you get time to have a cup of tea with me?" Joanna heard Janet's every word clearly, but she just couldn't believe her. So she just randomly chatted with Janet for a few minutes and hung up the phone. Janet's words weren't believable. After all, she said the same thing five years ago. But what happened then?
Alice eventually came back after five years and sabotaged her wedding.
Thinking about this, Joanna breathed heavily.
The humiliation she received a while ago resurfaced and she just can't handle it any more. Since Alice had decided to leave Edward, why can't she add fuel to the fire? Alice thought that they were finally leaving each other this time.
She didn't move a bit after Janet left as if time had stopped.
Alice didn't want to leave, because she needed time to think carefully.
She also squandered five years of her time like Edward. They were the same.
Someone had said that love is like a poem that starts from youth. But for Alice and Edward, their love was a tragedy that originates from youth.
They loved each other for seven years and were away from each other for five years. Twelve years of time has fleeted. How many twelve years can one have in a lifetime?
Edward didn't want to give up Alice five years ago and really wanted her back. So did Alice.
They didn't get along for many nights together, but she can still regain the feelings that she had for him five years ago.
But nothing can stand the test of time.
Five years ago, all she got was the news that Edward and Joanna was getting engaged. Five years later, she saw Edward and Nivea hugging. What a cruel world! Alice sat there absent-mindedly. Alice finally came to herself after waiter's third refilling. Well, she'd already made up her mind. There's no need to think about it anymore. At least she got to keep her baby and had her mother back. At least, she could lead a life as she had in the past five years.
What's more, John had done so much for her. She can finally repay him.
Walking out of the club, Alice felt as if a big load had been taken off from her mind. Looking at the clear sky, Alice had a deep breath. Tomorrow could be another day.

Alice was safe and sound. Seeing Alice was out, bodyguards were relieved. If Alice didn't come out soon, they would probably have rushed into the club.
Alice walked slowly without noticing that the bodyguards were following her. It wasn't far from the mansion, so walking might be good for the fetus. From now on, she would finally break free of the shackles.
After talking to Joanna, Janet was excited and wanted to share the
news with Edward. She thought that Edward should know that Alice.

otherwise, she won't choose to leave
without accepting the check.
She knew her son pretty well. Even though Edward had strong feelings for Alice, he won't bug her if she said that she didn't love him and wanted to leave him.
But the truth turned out to be that she knew little about Edward.
Looking at the glittering SA Group sign, Janet slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Staff in SA Group all knew president's mother, so Janet went straight to Edward's office.
Nivea was just walking out of the President's Office. Janet cast her a deep glance and didn't say anything.
Janet smirked. Well, Edward's taste on women had finally improved. Though Nivea meet her standard on her ideal daughter-in-law exactly, she was much better than Alice. "Mom? What're you doing here?"
Edward was in shock. They are dissatisfied with each other because of Alice and haven't met each other for a long time. What's more, Janet had never set her foot on SA Group. "Well, am I not welcomed?"
Edward didn't answer, but disapproving expression in his eyes stung Janet right in her heart. Janet blamed their discord on Alice!
"Well, your beloved Alice just said that she wanted to leave you. See it for yourself." Saying, Janet took out a voice recorder.
Edward looked at the agreement and the familiar handwriting in disbelief. The name that he loved was right on the paper and he can recognize that goddamn handwriting!
