Being able to do patent partnerships with them was basically a free ride; it opened doors to a lot of perks from the authorities.

Add family ties on top of that, and the benefits would be even bigger.

Daniel’s logic was simple: whether Alice accepted the family or not, this was a deal too good to pass up.

Alice carried her cup to the window, opened it, and looked at the busy traffic outside.

“First of all, after that whole mess with James, everyone was convinced I sabotaged Spencer Group.

“You’ve seen how things are between Linda and me. In the Spencers‘ residence, I have no status at all.

“Do you think they’re the type of noble people who can keep business and family separate?”

Daniel realized her point instantly.

“Mrs. Nolan, the problem is the process has already started.

“From Ms. Randall’s attitude, she wants the partnership.”

Alice took a slow sip of coffee.

She wasn’t in a hurry.

“It’s fine. Let’s wait until they come back.”

Daniel nodded, thinking maybe it wouldn’t be that bad.

“One more thing. About Huglan and Karen.

He brought it up carefully.

“They treated you so badly before. How about I go take care of them for you?”

Alice was already used to how toxic that couple was.

And the fact that they dared to bother her again after getting out of prison meant someone was backing them.

If she shut them down now, someone else would just pop up next.

So far, public opinion hadn’t hurt her reputation, and there was no real damage.

Which meant the other side would get anxious and make their next move soon.

She just needed to wait and see.

Chapter 328 A Public Enemy

Linda had been acting super paranoid lately.

Ever since she came back from the hill town, she would jump like she’d seen a ghost every time her phone rang

Gary noticed it pretty quickly.

So he took her to see Andy.

Andy said she was having a stress reaction and early signs of depression and suggested medication.

Linda didn’t ask many questions.

But when she was leaving the hospital, she ran into Sandy.

The moment Sandy saw her, she got furious.

“I’ve called you ten times, and nine of those times your brothers answered. What’s your deal? Are you avoiding me on purpose?

“Linda, we agreed back then–best friends stick together when things go bad.

“You still haven’t met your real parents, right?

“Because of them, I almost ruined my reputation. I have to wear a mask every time I go out now.

“And look at you, hanging out with your brother and pretending to be sick. You’re unbelievable!”

Linda was already in a bad mood, and getting blamed like this made her snap.

“What does this have to do with me?

“You were the one who was stupid enough to get involved. It had nothing to do with you, but you made it your problem!”

Sandy couldn’t believe Linda was actually talking back to her.

Her face turned dark with rage.

“Linda, I’ve been way too nice to you!” She screamed, raising her hand to slap her.

Gary’s face went cold as he blocked Sandy’s hand.

“I suggest you show some respect. Otherwise, I won’t go easy on you just because you’re the Nolan Group’s heiress.”

Sandy yanked her hand back in a rage and stormed straight into Andy’s office.

“Andy.”

Andy was surprised to see her.

The news online had been everywhere lately. Everyone knew Sandy had blindly sided with human traffickers.

Some extreme netizens were already treating her as bad as the criminals themselves.

To put it bluntly, Sandy was like a public enemy now.
