Sophia noticed that Alice had lost her balance momentarily when Sandra grabbed her.

Sandra was determined to embarrass Sophia since the latter had brought up her embarrassing past. Filled with anger and hatred, she subconsciously exerted too much strength while grabbing Alice, causing the unprepared Alice to nearly fall over.

Alice frowned as her body toppled for a moment. Despite her best efforts at exercising restraint, she still felt an excruciating pain in her waist.

Her wound had yet to heal, causing her to feel severe pain when Sandra tugged at her. She felt deeply unwell, and the color gradually drained from her face.

At this critical moment, a pair of large, warm hands suddenly reached out from behind and supported her back gently, saving her from further gaffes.

Alice didn’t look back, but she smelled the classically elegant scent of sandalwood. She had been helplessly intoxicated by the exact same scent six years ago while she was by River Seine that fateful night. When she woke up in a hotel bed after that, the person had left nothing behind in the room except for the lingering scent of sandalwood.

Just like that, he left without a trace.

Snapping out of her memories involving the sandalwood scent, she whispered to Daniel behind her and said, “Thank you.”

Daniel kept standing behind Alice while watching the situation in the hall without saying a word.

Sandra deliberately skirted the issue of apologizing as she wanted Alice to punish Sophia for using a knock-off cell phone. Seeing that Alice did not take action, she boiled over with rage and went so far as to reach her hand out again in an attempt to grab Alice.

 

After Sandra had grabbed her earlier on, several scratches appeared on Alice’s exposed arm. Being well-prepared this time, she cleverly dodged Sandra when the latter reached out to grab her again. Meanwhile, the bodyguard sensed that something was wrong and immediately stood between the two to keep Sandra away.

Sandra stared at Alice in utter surprise. She was mortified after Sophia teed her off just now, so she desperately needed Alice to save her from embarrassment by coming forward to give Sophia a hard time. However, she didn’t expect Alice to remain silent even after she had spoken so much.
