When Alice heard the words “family,” she couldn't help but feel it was absurd. She thought the sway in her
past life. But just before she was about to claim the championship, she got replaced by Chloe. What kind of
family was that?
Alice decisively replied, “I'm not planning to join the team; | want to focus on my studies and prepare for
exams.”
Luke shot back sarcastically, “Oh, but you were beggingto teach you how to play games, chasingat
night for training, and saying you wanted to be a full member. Why didn’t you mention studying then?”
A familiar ache tugged at Alice’s heart. The reason she chased after her sixth brother to play games was to build
a better relationship and have more common topics to discuss! But now, that seemed unnecessary.
Alice replied, “It's just that playing games has been affecting my studies; my scores dropped a lot in the last
monthly exam, so | don’t want to continue gaming.”
Luke was speechless.“Fine. Don’t regret it. When the competition starts, outsiders will only see Chloe and think
she’s the real member of the Welch family.”
If Alice was so ungrateful, then so be it; he didn’t care.

“That's fine,” Alice didn’t want to waste more words and turned to leave the dining hall.
Back in her room, she adjusted her emotions and started focusing on her homework, refreshing her memory on
the knowledge she had forgotten.
The next day after school, Alice and Chloe arrived at the school gates. The driver waited outside.
Chloe stood in front of the car and said, “I'm heading to the training camp. The driver needs to takethere
first; we won't be going the sway.”
The driver, with a stern face, stated, “Miss, | received a call from Mr. Welch. | need to take Miss Black there first. |
can’t waste time.”
Alice didn’t care.”I'll take a taxi.”
Chloe got into the car, a hint of excitement in her eyes.“Alice, Ill talk to Luke later.”
Alice turned and walked away.
Chloe watched her go, biting her lip.
“Alice, just wait. One day I'll take everything from you! This is what you owe me!” Alice stood by the roadside,
feeling a bit disinterested in returning to the Welch family. Maybe she should look for a study room nearby.
“Hey kid, why are you just hanging around after school instead of going home?”
Alice turned and saw a handsman, momentarily stunned until she recognized him. It was the sharp-tongued
school doctor. He usually wore a mask and a white coat, but now he was dressed differently, almost
unrecognizable.
Jack stood in front of her. “I’m talking to you.”
“I don’t want to go hright now. | want to find a study room to do my homework.”
“Cwith me.”

She ended up at the school’s infirmary, standing at the door:“Why are we here? I'm already better.”
Jack gestured to the desk.“It’s quieter and safer than a study hall.”
After thinking it over, Alice realized he had a point. She set her backpack down:“Thanks.” She took out her books
