Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 881 - 917: Reluctance

Her family is wealthier than Alice Conley’s, and she’s prettier than Alice, but despite several attempts to get close to Dorian Howards, she failed each time. Naturally, this made her hate Alice even more.

Nevertheless, no matter how unwilling, Indigo Quigley still had to seek out Alice Conley. After all, she didn’t want her family to collapse like this. As long as her parents could be released and the family’s assets preserved, she could go abroad for a few years, wait until no one talked about her anymore, and return to be the young lady living a good life.

Meanwhile, at the studio, Alice Conley was back at work, and all the colleagues showed concern, expressing disdain for Indigo Quigley’s actions back then.

"Alice, it’s lucky you and the baby are okay this time. Indigo Quigley was just too wicked, knowing you’re pregnant and still pushing you down the stairs!"

"Exactly, luckily Dorian has already made her leave the studio; otherwise, working with someone like that would be really disgusting!"

"That Indigo Quigley, she said those things about you that day, and look at her, ending up filming those kinds of videos with a man in a hotel. It’s such a slap in the face."

Alice Conley smiled, accepting her colleagues’ concern one by one, but didn’t comment much on Indigo Quigley’s matters.

Before Indigo Quigley had any trouble, a few colleagues weren’t so close to her, but now they all treated Indigo like an enemy.

Alice Conley didn’t sympathize with Indigo, but she did wonder, if Dorian Howards hadn’t appeared at the press conference that day, how many people would be standing by her now, speaking for her?

She didn’t know the answer, but at least one thing was certain: Mabel Quinn would definitely stand with her.

"By the way, tomorrow evening you and Mr. Jun come to my house for dinner," Alice Conley said to Mabel Quinn during their lunch break. "My dad and mom want to properly thank you both."

"Sure, I’ll definitely come," Mabel Quinn replied.

The two chatted as they walked out of the restaurant in the building, planning to return to the studio. Suddenly, a voice called out, "Alice Conley!"

Mabel Quinn and Alice Conley stopped in their tracks, seeing Indigo Quigley standing not far away, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, with sunglasses covering most of her face, and dressed in gray-brown clothes unlike her usual vibrant colors.

Alice Conley squinted her eyes, looking coldly, and then moved her gaze away from Indigo Quigley, as if not bothered to look again.

Indigo Quigley was furious. She had come to find Alice, but what was this attitude from the other side, treating her like air?

So she stepped forward, trying to approach Alice and the others.

But she hadn’t truly gotten close to Alice when she was stopped by two men.

"Who are you? Why are you holding me?" Indigo Quigley panicked.

Alice Conley said indifferently, "They are my bodyguards, responsible for my safety. Indigo Quigley, don’t come near me for no reason, or I’ll have them throw you out."

These two bodyguards were assigned by Dorian Howards to Alice Conley’s side because Alice had been in trouble once before, and Dorian couldn’t help but worry.

Alice Conley didn’t mind. After all, it was for the safety of the baby in her belly, and now they were proving useful.
