Chapter: 370

Lilliana's expression darkened. "Do you really think you're in the same league as me?"

Alicia let out a quiet laugh.

Her eyes shifted toward Joshua.

Alicia said slowly, "Your fiance must be something special for you to become a mistress and get pregnant while he was still married to another woman. But what about Caden?"

She paused briefly before continuing with confidence. “Caden's capabilities outshine Joshua's in every way. So now that I'm with him, tell me, who's really benefiting here?"

Lilliana sneered. "You're so naive. You actually think you and Caden are together? He'll get tired of you in no time. Just wait, you'll be thrown out like garbage."

Alicia shrugged. "Even if it's just a week, I'd still come out ahead. I'm not the one putting in the effort."

Lilliana's composure began to crack.

Alicia smiled as she met Lilliana's gaze. “But what about you, Miss Green? After two years with Joshua, how much have you gained?"

Lilliana found herself speechless.

Alicia pretended to look regretful. “Oh, I forgot. In your world, women exist only to serve men. I should be asking Mr. Yates about this instead."

She turned to Joshua, whose face was dark with anger. "In terms of bedroom skills, I'm nowhere near your level. You've got the Green family's daughter pregnant, and she's willing to give you hundreds of millions. Tell me, who else in all of Warrington has talents like yours?"

Joshua's fury surged.

Alicia hadn't directly called him a freeloader, but every word hit the mark.

His clenched his fists, and he glared at her with pure rage.

Despite the fact that he was staring daggers at her, Alicia was unperturbed.

"Mr. Yates, you should think ahead. A man's charm doesn't last forever, and you can't rely on good looks for long," she stated.

That was enough to push Joshua over the edge.

He stepped forward, closing the distance between them.

Alicia didn't move, her expression blank as she stared at him.

Joshua glared at the face he had once known so well but now found unfamiliar and infuriating. "You'll regret your decisions, Alicia."

Alicia let out a small laugh. "Regret? There's no regret greater than marrying you."

Joshua's eyes blazed with fury.

Alicia's face showed plainly that their marriage had been nothing but a source of shame for her.

The sound of a nurse's cart echoed from down the hallway.

It shattered the tension in the narrow corridor.

Lilliana cared about her reputation, so she quickly put her sunglasses back on and forced herself to seem calm.

Alicia turned away and walked off.

Joshua watched her leave, struggling to breathe as anger surged inside him.

Every fiber of his being was filled with anger.
