Josh turned on the computer and pressed Alice onto the gaming chair. He placed a pink headphone with kitty cars on
her head and took out several snacks from the fridge, including some beer and fruits.
He bragged in WhatsApp to his gaming friends that he had found a supreme gamer to help him rank up today.
Alice glanced at his current rank and scowled.
It was no wonder why Josh had been so enthusiastic about her helping him. He had fallen out of the top 100 in ranking.
“Good gaming, Alice. I am going to treat you to a king crab banquet tonight!” Josh thumped Alice on her back and
turned on his charm.
King crab? Alice’s mind brought up the faces of the children and Daniel. She considered and said, “How many crabs
did you order?”
“How many do you want to eat? I can order as many as you want. I’m rich enough to feed you, Alice! There’s no way I
will go bankrupt over this!” Josh grinned.
That was true. Josh had always been very generous to Alice. He would have given her a car worth hundreds of
thousands of dollars if Alice would let him.
“If so, can you give me four live king crabs?” Alice asked.
Josh was confused. “Live? Why do you want live ones? You don’t know how to rear them.” Alice blinked at him and spoke seriously, “Have you forgotten that I got married? That his family is poor? I will take the four crabs back. One of them will be shared between him and the children. The other three are for his family.” Josh was exasperated. He wrapped his hands around Alice’s face and pinched it. Glaring at her, Josh said, “It is true that when a woman is married, her allegiance lies entirely with her husband! “You have only been married for a short while, and you’re beginning to take the stuff from your family to feed his!” Josh snorted. “I’m not going to let you do that!” “Fine. It doesn’t matter then.” Alice took her hands off the keyboard.
The other members of the team were still fighting furiously in the game. Josh hurriedly said, “Good Alice, dear Alice, honey, sweetie pie. Fine. Four crabs it is. I will even give you forty king crabs if that’s what you want. Just continue playing the game!” “Who’s the one who says that the woman’s allegiance lies with her husband after marriage?” Alice raised a challenging brow at him. “No one! Who would say that? You continue playing, and I’ll get the crabs for you.” Josh was already putting the order on his phone. By the time the live king crabs arrived, Alice had already helped him get back to the top 100 ranks. Looking at the ranking, Josh’s heart managed not to hurt as much. Still, he could not help but ask, “Where is that husband whom you got married to? Pick a time so that all of us from your side can meet him!” Alice was silent for a while as she recalled another person who kept talking about meeting her husband too. “Not right now,” she hedged. “I’ll have to visit his family and look at the situation on his side.” “Just take a look. Don’t even consider letting them leech off you!” Josh suddenly thought of something. He grabbed Alice’s shoulders. “Did you sign a pre-nuptial agreement?” “No, I didn’t.” “I knew you were an idiot! I’ll look up Daniel’s lawyers and get them to prepare an agreement for you and make your husband sign it. I’m a man. I understand men. You have to keep something for yourself. Don’t lose yourself in the marriage,” Josh warned her. At the same time, he was regretting not introducing Alice to Daniel. Alice did not reject his offer. “Fine, just don’t take advantage of him!” Josh was speechless. Alice was indeed a fool. When Candice went over to hand Alice her phone, she accidentally put it on silent. At seven that night, at Rachel’s food stall, the children stood up all at once. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
