"Did you see her face? Did you see Lyle's face?"
Until now, Felice couldn't stop talking about what happened earlier. They already arrive at the noodle shop and even finished ordering but Felice is still talking about Lyle.
"She is your junior, no? How did you know her?" Gabi asked.
"She always followed Alfons around and even join all the organizations that he was a mber of."
Gabi smiled. That's right, Lyca is already borderline-stalking Alfons. What would happen if she do sothing to make Alfons marry that woman? Gabi was already smiling because of the potential chaos that it would cause Alfon's life. However, there is also the possibility that Alfons would start controlling her and her family.
If that happens then, it ant Alfons would have strong backing.
But then again, soone like that is a double-edged sword.
In fact, the reason Alfons didn't marry anyone in his previous life is that he didn't want any family to tie him down. He was ambitious and always thought that this country is just a stepping stone for his dreams. Then should she just let those two marry each other?
"Why are you smiling like that?" Felice rested her chin on her palm. She was sitting across from Gabi. The sa gentle smile was on her face. This ti, however, there was a hint of mischievousness inside that smile.
"My brother doesn't like her."
"Really?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Well if he doesn't like her, then he should stop leading her on, no?"
"Leading her on?"
"Yes. Many people assud that they were together and Lyle would blush around him and act like a cute puppy. I don't know how to explain this, but Lyle and Alfons are not really together. However, Alfons is using Lyle for so things in the school."
"Interesting."
"Ah" Felice's face turned scarlet when she heard her words. "Please don't think that I am stalking them or sothing. I just heard a few rumors about it. I always stay in quiet places alone and sotis, I witness things, you know?"
"I understand what you an. So can you tell the things that you heard about those two?"
"Hmmm. You really want to know?"
"Yes. I hope you don't mind."
"Then do you know that Alfons is the president of the student council, right?"
"Yes."
"Lyle is his personal assistant."
"I didn't know about this."
"Well, it's not written, but Lyle does everything for him. There is really no formal announcent that she is his assistant, but she is acting like one. She is acting like a servant and even prepared his clothes every morning."
"Really?" This university has a dorm and to make their students comfortable, the dorm is only enough for one person. The dorm is just like a studio with its own toilet and bath, a place to cook, eat and entertain visitors. It wasn't that big, but definitely comfortable enough. "So she sleeps in his dorm?"
"What? That is not allowed."
Their order arrived and the two of them started eating before Felice continued. "She just prepared it during the night before she goes back to her own dorm. She also prepares all docunts for him, like uh reports. Lyle is pretty good with those kinds of things."
"But Alfons never told this to anyone?"
"Of course not. It would damage his pristine image."
"And how did you know it?"
"I heard Lyle said it."
"Hm?"
"Lyle complained to Alfons and told him you embarrassed her. I don't have specifics about this but she was pretty angry and said that if only you knew she was the one making all those reports, then you would probably hire her as your secretary almost imdiately."
"That's crazy." That should be around the ti that Lyle applied to beco her secretary, right? Was that the reason why Lyle was really confident that ti? She knew Alfons would not do anything to her because of the things that she did for Alfons.
Then
How co she didn't know anything about this in her previous life? If Alfons already has a talented person like this woman by his side then how co Gabi didn't know or her existence?
She lowered her gaze as she tried to recall anything about the Quigly family. Just like the Ren Family, they are pretty influential too. However, they aren't as low key as the Ren Family. Lyle and her family loved extravagant parties and gifts. They don't really do anything to hide the fact that they are wealthy.
In her previous life, Lyle never stopped pursuing Alfons. She would do everything to impress him.
But what if it was all an act?
What if Alfons purposely hid the fact that he and Lyle were working closely together?
"I know, right? But judging from your reaction, the interaction with Lyle and that secretary thing happened. Am I right?"
"Yes, you are." Gabi nodded. "She applied as my secretary a couple of days ago but Ramik was more capable than her." Now that she thought about it, why would Lyle want to work for her? Why did she even apply in the first place?
It seems that she needed to look into this Quigly Family.
Without any hesitation, she opened her phone and sent a single text ssage to Aden's number, asking him so information about the Quigly Family. By now, Archy must have known about the second young master of the Sealey Family, right?
"Ah, that's right. I also heard that Lyle declined a few marriage prospects this year. She really wanted to marry Alfons but the Quigly's wanted soone with an excellent influence in the society."
"That is understandable." The two started talking about Felice's plans now that she just graduated before they finished their food. After dropping Felice off at the Brent estate, Gabi also went ho with Kasper.
"Miss, Mr. Alfons had been calling you since you left the party. He sent a total of ten texts ssages. I answered one of his calls and inford him that you are leaving because you are not feeling well." Kasper said. She already told him to tell Alfons so random reason when she left the party earlier.
"Thank you. You are doing a great job. Please go ho now. Have a good night." She sat on the chair near her bed staring at the two phones in front of her. One of them was the one that she entrusted Kasper, the other was used to contact Aden and hopefully Archy soon.
She stared at the phones for a few minutes before letting out a sigh. She was actually expecting to receive so sort of response from that man, but it seems that he wasn't interested in this ti. Oh, well
They have is a transactional relationship so maybe... they wanted her to provide so sort of paynt first?
'Tsk.' She really wanted to use this opportunity to talk to the big boss Archy and maybe even et him. But it seems that he wasn't interested at all? Does this an that the ruckus that she created inside the Sealey Family wasn't enough?
She opened her phone once again and texted.
[Send the price and account number.]
She was about to stand when her phone vibrated.
"Hello?"
"You were waiting for my call, right?" Aden's voice drifted towards her and it imdiately made her frown. "Are you blushing right now?"
She clenched her fist. What is wrong with this man?
