The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback
Chapter 424

Chapter 424:

This only further infuriated Kasumi.

She knocked the card out of Alicia’s hand, glaring at her.

“What useful advice could someone who lives off their looks possibly offer? Stop showing off here.”

Alicia remained neutral, her face impassive.

“Fine.

Then, consider the advice unnecessary.”

Dealing with the impulsive young woman was souring Alicia’s mood, so she chose to leave.

Kasumi shouted, “Wait! Change your rating first!”

Alicia turned around and mocked, “Is this how the tech industry works? Forcing users to leave positive reviews?”

Kasumi stepped toward Alicia, not physically threatening, but clearly confrontational.

“Don’t think that just because you’re with Caden, you can—”

Kasumi acted all high and mighty.

“You probably don’t know my father just met with him.

He decided to collaborate with us, and I’ll handle the upcoming projects.”

Alicia responded calmly, “Oh.

What should I say? Congratulate you for taking on such a role at your age?”

Kasumi retorted coldly, “Caden’s success comes from making wise business choices.

There are many beautiful women around him, and if you cross me, do you think he’ll still treat you kindly?”

Alicia let out a small laugh.

“Have you ever seen a homewrecker accompany a CEO to these events?” She added gently, “If you’re not skilled in business, you should at least learn to keep silent.

A single slip of the tongue can sometimes cost your company dearly.”

Alicia’s calm demeanor was her strongest asset in this exchange, neutralizing the situation with poise.

Kasumi was left speechless, yet remained stubborn.

As Alicia turned to leave, Kasumi yelled out spitefully, “This world is insane! A homewrecker dares to be so arrogant!”

Alicia stopped momentarily.

Someone behind Kasumi murmured, “Don’t say that.”

“Why not? Didn’t you know Caden is engaged to Yolanda? They were an ideal couple until she interfered and split them up.

Isn’t that the definition of a homewrecker?”

Someone nearby asked curiously, “How do you know so much about her?”

Kasumi responded confidently, “I used to be good friends with Yolanda.

Our parents worked together before, so of course, I know all about it.”

At that moment, Alicia understood why Kasumi seemed so hostile.

They knew exactly that she was experiencing VR, yet they deliberately spoke loud enough for her to hear.

It was clear — Kasumi was defending Yolanda.

Alicia stayed silent, simply turning and leaving the room.

Her calm demeanor only seemed to irritate Kasumi further.

“How can she just walk away like that?” she muttered, visibly annoyed.

“Doesn’t she have any temper?”

Someone beside her cautioned, “Let’s drop it.

Mr.

Ward brought her here, and he’s obviously fond of her.

Even if she’s… just his secret lover, he wouldn’t be pleased to hear us talking this way.”

Kasumi scoffed.

“So what? I haven’t done anything to her.

My father is also about to start a collaboration with Blizzard Group.

Business should come first, don’t you think?”

Meanwhile, Alicia had stepped out to grab a cup of coffee, hoping to clear her mind.

She took a sip but frowned in disappointment.

As she turned around, she nearly bumped into Caden, who had appeared silently behind her.

“You scared me!” she exclaimed, catching her breath.

“What are you doing sneaking up like that?”
