Alicia never expected Caroline would actually come through for her—she was released after just one night in custody.
It was only after her release that she was aghast to discover she had lost everything—not only had she been fired and stripped of her medical license, but all her assets had been seized as well.
Caroline told her that all of this was the work of the Crawford family. At the mere mention of that powerful name, Alicia's lingering resentment evaporated—there was no way she'd ever dare cross them again, not in a million years.
Flat broke and desperate, the first person who came to her mind was Caroline.
When a thoroughly disheveled Alicia stumbled into Caroline's office, Caroline struggled to conceal the outright disgust in her eyes.
Alicia was shoveling down the meal Kendall had ordered, speaking through mouthfuls of greasy food as she turned to Caroline.
"Caroline, you have to help me again. I've got no job, no money, even my place has been seized. I'm at the end of my rope—you're literally my only option."
Seeing Alicia trying to leech off her again, Caroline's anger flared uncontrollably.
The whole point of getting Alicia out was to unleash her on Georgia. But now, to Caroline's fury, this greedy leech had the audacity to come crawling back to her again.
Caroline's expression darkened sharply. "It was Georgia who set you up, and you're the one who pissed off the Crawford family. I've already gone above and beyond to get you out of this mess. Instead of going after Georgia, you're still expecting me to help you? How exactly am I supposed to help you?"
Alicia paused mid-bite, her fork frozen in the air. "Of course I'll get back at Georgia," she said. "But look at me—I've got absolutely nothing right now! If I'm going to take her on, I'll at least need a job, a place to live, and some income, won't I?"
Noticing Caroline's livid expression, Alicia hastily added, "Honestly, I never even wanted that hospital pharmacy job anyway. You might as well just set me up with a job I actually like."
Watching the insatiable greed on Alicia's face, Caroline could no longer contain her pent-up fury. Luckily, Gemma had already devised a plan: if Alicia dared to expose her theft of Georgia's report, they would simply issue a joint statement accusing Alicia of framing her. With Alicia's utterly ruined reputation, no one would believe her, even if she told the truth.
"Listen up, Alicia," Caroline hissed. "From now on, if you want my help, you'll have to take down Georgia for me. She ruined your life—if she walks away unscathed, I swear you'll wish you were in hell!"
Watching Caroline's expression harden, Alicia instantly realized, "She's planning to use me as her pawn!"
If it were before, she would've agreed without a second thought to help Caroline take down Georgia—after all, they'd already dragged her through the mud.
But ever since that day when the police marched her past Georgia, Alicia couldn't shake the memory of those eyes—her piercing gaze that seemed to see right through her. Even now, just recalling it sent chills down her spine.
Alicia never had any real beef with Georgia, so she had no reason to mess with her for Caroline.
Alicia tossed the takeout box aside, instantly shedding her earlier dejection as she fixed Caroline with a piercing stare.
Her tone sharp, she demanded, "So, Professor Hutchinson, you're not going to help me after all?"
Alicia stood up, her voice dripping with venom as she declared, "If I'm going down, I'm taking everyone with me. You really think I'll go to hell alone?"
Caroline smirked, completely unfazed by Alicia's threat. "So what if I am? With your reputation in tatters, you actually think you can threaten me?"
Alicia narrowed her eyes. "So, you're really not afraid?"
Caroline made a sweeping gesture of invitation.
"Go ahead and tell the world—see if anyone would believe you. But I guarantee, if you dare speak up, you'll be facing defamation charges! Unless you're eager for another stint behind bars."
She sneered, "Threaten me? As if you're in any position to."
Bolstered by Gemma's words, Caroline felt emboldened, and this outburst thrilled her to the core.
