Then, Alicia ate a piece of cake herself, and her eyes lit up.

“If you like it so much, I’ll ask the housekeeper to pack some for you when you leave!” Maria replied.
“It’s been so long since I last saw you, my dear Alicia. Look at how you’ve grown! You’re getting more and more beautiful by the day.”
“Aww, auntie, stop teasing me!” Alicia felt a bit embarrassed to hear such compliments from Maria.
“I heard that your grandfather’s birthday party happened a few days ago. Did Victor attend as well?” Maria asked casually, pretending as though she wasn’t that concerned about it.
Alicia paused when she thought of Drake’s birthday party. She recalled how Victor and Rachel interacted that night. She then bit her lower lip, looking displeased as she reluctantly answered, “He did.”
“What’s the matter? Why do you look so upset? Were you not happy to see him? You used to tell me how much you liked Victor. Now that he’s divorced, you have a chance to pursue again. So, why do you seem so unhappy?” Maria asked in a soft voice while forming speculations in her mind.
In an aggrieved tone, Alicia replied, “The divorce, you say? Auntie Maria, didn’t you hear? Victor took Rachel to my grandfather’s birthday party! They’re indeed divorced, but Rachel is still pestering him. That night, she’s the reason Victor abandoned me on the dance floor! How could I be happy about that?”
“Victor brought Rachel to Drake’s party?”
“Auntie, do you not believe me?” Alicia’s face turned red with anger.
“Of course, I do, dear.” Maria patted the back of her hand to comfort her.
“As a matter of fact, I asked you to come here today because I’ve heard some saddening news. I thought you might know something about it because you have some ties with Victor.”
Upon hearing that, Alicia looked at Maria in confusion.
“Auntie, what are you talking about?”
Maria smiled faintly.
“Actually, it’s not that big of a deal. It’s just a rumor I heard a few days ago. Perhaps it’s not true.”
Alicia was worried when she heard the word “rumor”, and she was especially agitated to know that this rumor was tied to Victor.
Anxiously, she said, “Auntie, please don’t keep me in suspense. Tell me, is it about Rachel and Victor?”
Maria held Alicia’s hand and replied, “It indeed has something to do with Rachel.”
“Ugh! It’s about her again?” Alicia was visibly annoyed.
“I knew it must be her! She just won’t stop pestering Victor!”
“I’m afraid it’s not going to be an issue whether she pesters him or not.” Maria let out a sigh, pretending to look worried.
Upon seeing the look on her aunt’s face, Alicia had a bad feeling.
“Auntie, what is it?”
