Chapter 27
Chapter 27: Stay Away From Her
"Nothing, just feel uncomfortable with my eyes." Facing John Blake, Alice shakes her head and smiles gently.
Anger flashed in his eyes when Edward Smith looks at them from afar. Alice Roberts, that’s the reason why you shun me?
"What an excellent show. It's once in a lifetime to see this expression on your face. Am I right, my President?"
A mocking voice comes. Edward Smith turns his head and sees his competitor – Kevin Collins from the Night Group.
Kevin Collins puts his hands into the trouser pockets and walks over Edward Smith. He takes his hands out and claps, laughing, "Our President is rejected by a woman! But I heard that you were going to marry Joanna Hale, Is it a fake news?"
"Kevin Collins, you must have forgotten the Mobil Company thing?"
Mentioning this, Kevin Collins' face sinks with anger.
His biggest competitor is Edward Smith Since he took over the Night Group from his father.
The difference is that SA Group is created by Edward himself.
It only took five years for SA Group to be the first-class domestic enterprise. And now it is the leading company in the city which surpasses even the local enterprise Night Group.
What's more, The Smith family itself is very influential and serves Edward Smith well.
Kevin Collins is not willing to stick to this situation, so he used some tricks, that was, exchanged the blueprint, when he learnt that the CEO of Mobil Company was looking for partners in their city.
But unexpectedly, Edward Smith learnt this and spread it to the media.
The Night Group lost not only their reputation but also their chance to cooperate with Mobil Company.
Just at that time, he met a hot girl in a bar and was unexpectedly photographed several nude photos, which were then put on the Internet. His father's health was not good, so he fainted with anger when he heard about it.
Kevin Collins was very embarrassed and blamed Edward Smith for all of these.
So there is feud between them since then.
Kevin Collins suddenly gets interested in that female urologist when he sees that Edward is rejected by her,
"Stay away from her." Edward Smith warns Kevin and spreads a shivering chill when he sees his evil eyes.
Edward Smith doesn't find that he will get unusual when he deals with things related to Alice Roberts. He seems very angry but concerned as well.
But Kevin Collins is not afraid of Edward at all.
"Taking care of yourself, President Edward. Joanna Hale is not a nice woman. What will she do if she finds out that you have crush on a doctor?
Edward Smith frowns; the one he's afraid of is not Joanna Hale but his mother Janet Louis.

Getting rid of Edward Smith, Alice Roberts goes to the hospital canteen for lunch with John Blake and makes a call to the teacher to ask about Albert and Rebecca. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Miss Roberts? You called just in time. You'd better come..."
Alice Roberts immediately puts down the lunch box and chopsticks. She gets panic. Albert and Rebecca have always been sensible, how could they fight with other kids in the kindergarten?
She wants to run out but doesn't notice the chair in front of her. She would’ve fallen down if John Blake didn’t hold her.
"Is there something wrong with Albert and Rebecca? I’ll go with you."
Seeing her anxious face, John Blake can't help worrying and asks the head for leave. He drives Alice to the kindergarten.
All the way, sitting on the passenger's seat, Alice Roberts is worrying about her babies. She clutches her trouser and gets pale.
"Don't worry, Albert and Rebecca will be fine. If it's really serious, the teacher would have told you."
John Blake holds Alice's hand and comforts her.
Maybe his words work, Alice Roberts says thank you in a low voice and holds back her hand silently.
A hint of regret flashed across John's eye when he feels it. He knows that Alice can't accept him now, but he still doesn't want to give up.
Soon, they arrive at the kindergarten. Alice Roberts sprints to the classroom as soon as she gets out of the car.
As they approach, they hear the noise coming from the inside.
"Teacher, Albert hit me!"
Albert Roberts looks coldly at the children in front of him and hums with anger. He turns his gaze on Rebecca who stands aside. Her hair is in a mess and her red face is full of unhappiness. She looks at him and cries, "Brother~"
Albert Roberts can't resist Rebecca's voice, especially when she has just been bullied. He puts out his hand to wipe her tears, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
"Woo......"Rebecca holds Albert tightly and cries loudly.
It is even louder than all the other children and is very piercing, which makes people feel miserable. Who would think the cry comes from a four-year-old girl?
The teacher doesn't know what to do with this cry. Actually, the reason is very simple.
Albert and Rebecca enroll late, but they soon become very popular among the classmates with their pretty and lovely faces.
This would've been a good thing. But Albert is a cold guy who is not talkative and enjoys being alone.
And Rebecca is a people person who is cute and lovable. There are even some little boys fighting for her, which makes the teacher amazing.
But it's common for kids to have some fights when they are playing together.
Rebecca was playing a game with some boys during the lunch break, and then a chubby girl said something that made her lose her temper.
The little chubby girl was the most popular child in the kindergarten before Rebecca comes. She is cute and comes from a rich family so the teacher usually gives her a special treat.
She feels uncomfortable since Rebecca came here and took the place of her princess-like status. She accidently heard that Rebecca didn't have father from the teachers and made fun of her.
Actually, a child at her age doesn't know the meaning of not having father,
But from the TV and the adults, she vaguely understands that Rebecca was abandoned by her father.
"Well, you're bastard and your father abandoned you! No one wants you two..."The chubby girl's mean words that she learnt from TV before instantly irritates Rebecca
