Chapter 154 Following the Doctor’s Advice
Boston smiled and said, “Yeah, that’s him. He’s all about cars. Don’t worry about it–let’s go find Cary
“Alright.” Linda replied, doing her best to hide how anxious she felt. She just wanted to leave the scene quickly.
They had only walked a few steps when Boston added, “After the tournament wraps up, I’m going to post what Alice did on my social account. I’ll keep at it until she says sorry?
Linda’s heart softened a little at his words.
“Boston, thanks… but you shouldn’t do that. She’s still your sister, you know.
“She probably didn’t get much guidance back in the village. Maybe she’ll figure things out later.
Boston let out a helpless chuckle. “You’re always way too nice.”
“I guess it’s because I’ve always had you who’s got my back. That makes it easy to be kind.” Linda gave a small smile.
“You sure know how to butter people up, Boston teased.
Their voices grew quieter as they walked away.
Meanwhile, inside the lounge, Alice slowly opened her eyes, picked up a magazine, and casually flipped through it.
Daniel, on the other hand, was clearly angry. “Mrs. Nolan, let me go teach them a lesson,” he said through clenched teeth.
Linda had twisted the facts, and just a few well–placed words from her had convinced everyone in the Spencers that Alice was the one to blame.
Daniel was so fed up that he seriously wanted to go knock some sense into them.
Alice looked completely relaxed, like none of it bothered her at all.
Eric, who had stayed silent up until now, put down his phone and tapped on the tablet next to him.
A large screen came to life on the wall, displaying the current state of the chess tournament.
It was already down to the semifinals
The winners would move on to the final match that night.
One of the semifinalists was Linda.
She’d received personal coaching from Gary, and her playing style was calm and precise. But when the pressure was on, she didn’t hold back,
Daniel frowned at the screen. “Watching her win just makes me sick,” he muttered.

His irritation was obvious.
“For the finals, Eric said coolly, “match her with me”
Daniel froze, confused.
“Mr. Eric… You’re not seriously planning to go easy on her or help her win, are you?”
That would be beyond crazy.
Alice let out a sudden laugh.
“Eric, don’t you have better things to do?”
Eric glanced at her.
“I heard the final round will be streamed live.”
Alice didn’t respond for a moment.
Great. So now the whole internet will watch him crush a girl on camera.
Is he trying to make her cry in front of the world?
She rubbed her forehead helplessly.
“You seriously hold onto every little grudge, don’t you?”
Eric leaned back in his seat, picked up a magazine, and flipped it open casually.
“Just following the doctor’s advice.”
Alice was speechless..
Honestly, guys like him should really learn when to stop talking.
Daniel finally understood what Eric meant.
“So you’re going to humiliate Linda in the finals?”
He hesitated for a second, unsure.
“But isn’t that still giving her too much attention? If she loses and starts crying, the internet might accuse you of being a bully.”
Eric nodded slightly. “True.”
Still, he had no intention of letting anyone who tried to bully Alice walk away unharmed.
If someone crossed a line, he’d make sure they paid the price.
Daniel didn’t say anything else.
Fie quietly pulled out his phone and messaged Stanley, asking him to hire some online trolls in advanco
Chapter 154 Following the Doctor’s Advice
Isn’t it just soute online argument?
The Nolan Group definitely had the money to hire some online trolls.
Even though Linda made it to the semifinals, she wasn’t in the mood to celebrate.
Her phone kept buzzing
Yvette’s name flashed on the screen.
Not long ago, Yvette had dug up something on her and forced her to cooperate.
She never thought Yvette also disliked Alice, just like she did.
That should’ve made things easier.
Instead, Yvette used her like a tool.
Linda was always pushed out first, like it didn’t matter what happened to her.
She couldn’t keep going like that.
This time, Yvette had asked her to ruin Alice’s reputation–claim that she had gotten close to rich men back in her village days.
It was a ridiculous lie.
There wasn’t even any solid proof.
No way was Linda taking that kind of risk
Still, she couldn’t afford to ignore Yvette either.
She took a deep breath and answered the call,
“What took you so long to pick up?” Yvette snapped, her tone sharp and commanding.
Linda rolled her eyes in frustration.
She just wanted to get it over with, but she needed solid dirt to work with.
“I get that you’re nervous. Go take a look at your
email soon.
Right after saying that, Yvette ended the call.
Seconds later, Linda got a notification.
Letting out a deep breath, she tapped on the message.
As soon as she read it, her jaw dropped.
It looked like Alice really wasn’t as clean as she pretended to be.
Linda had always suspected it. A girl from a small town with so many tricks up her sleeve? There had to be
more to the story.
