Chapter: 369
"Alright, I'll head out now. Take care."
"I will," Gina replied.
To avoid drawing attention, Gina didn't walk her out.
Alicia hadn't gotten far before she crossed paths with Joshua and Lilliana.
Lilliana was wearing sunglasses and looked irritated. On the other hand, Joshua's expression was blank, and hostility showed in his eyes.
Joshua came to an abrupt stop when he spotted Alicia.
Even behind her sunglasses, Lilliana's resentment was clear.
Too much had happened between them recently.
Lilliana couldn't hold back her temper and said, “Joshua, what a coincidence. We actually bumped into your ex-wife at the hospital.”
Joshua didn't seem to be fazed.
“You said it yourself. She's my ex-wife. She means nothing to me now."
He tightened his grip on Lilliana's hand. “Let's go."
Alicia kept her mouth shut. She couldn't wait to get away from them.
But Lilliana wasn't finished. She leaned in and hissed, “Alicia, you're an orphan. So, you're not here visiting family. Are you the one dying of cancer?"
Alicia's gaze shifted to Lilliana's swollen belly.
Alicia responded calmly, "You're pregnant. Try being kind, if not for yourself, then for your baby.”
Lilliana stroked her belly and took a step closer.
Alicia met her gaze.
Lilliana's smug attitude matched Joshua's perfectly.
"I underestimated you, Alicia Lilliana stated. "Who would've thought you'd end up with Caden?"
With the Yates family facing trouble, the Green family had been dragged into the mess. It was now under investigation for reasons they couldn't explain.
Everything was spiraling into chaos.
Lilliana knew it was Alicia who had stirred Caden into action, and the thought made her want to tear Alicia apart.
Alicia was nothing more than a discarded woman. How did she manage to get Caden involved?
Alicia remained composed. "I'm far more capable than you think."
Lilliana sneered. "Really? That's hilarious. A woman who uses her body to climb the ladder actually thinks she's something special."
She covered her mouth, laughing mockingly.
The floor was mostly empty, with few patients or staff passing by.
With no one around, Lilliana's insults became sharper. "Women like you are just toys for men. They throw you away once they've had their fun. And you really think you matter?"
Alicia remained unaffected by her insults. "So, Miss Green, in your view, whenever a man is involved, the woman is always the one who loses. When Joshua cheated on me during our marriage, did he see you as just a tool to fulfill his needs?"
