Nicolas immediately lost his mind. “Alicia, who are you with? Is it Jason p>

Nicolas’s face turned even gloomier. “Did Jason say something to you? Is he the reason you’re stirring up all this drama with us? ”
He went on, “That guy’s got beef with me. Don’t let him egg you on. He’s nothing but a scheming psycho.
“And don’t start acting like him, always making trouble with your own family on purpose p>
Alicia rolled her eyes. “I’m cutting you all off because I finally woke up and realized it for myself. It’s got nothing to do with him p>
She snarked, “Can you ever take a look in the mirror instead of blaming everyone else for your problems p>
Jason was sitting right next to Alicia. He piped up, “Nicolas, I’m the kind of guy who holds a grudge. You talk smack about me. I won’t forget it p>
When Nicolas heard Jason’s voice, his voice rose with anger. “ Jason Farrell, if you’ve got beef, bring it to me.
“If you’re cozying up to Alicia just to screw with us, that’s just plain dirty p>
Just the idea of Alicia hitting it off with Jason made Nicolas sick.
He shouted again, “Alicia, stay away from him. He’s bad news. ”
Alicia snapped, “Nicolas, if you’re sick, go get yourself treated. Stop acting crazy on the phone.
“And let me make this crystal clear: don’t ever reach out to me again. We’re nothing to each other now p>
Before either of them could get another word in, she hung up.
After hanging up, Alicia gave Jason an apologetic look. “Sorry, you got dragged into this mess. ”
Jason just waved it off. “Doesn’t matter. I never got along with them to begin with p>
He shot her a knowing glance. “You’re really determined to cut them off this time, huh p>
He’d seen for himself just how fiercely Alicia used to defend Nicolas and Maxwell.
But now, it was clear she was truly fed up and ready to cut them off for good.
Honestly, he hadn’t expected that from her.
Alicia just shrugged. “I just finally woke up. They don’t see me as real family, so let’s just walk our own ways p>
Jason let out a soft chuckle. “Can’t agree more. Just say goodbye to those who don’t cherish you p>
Jason did the same, but the price he paid was steep.
It was the first time Alicia had ever seen him smile. She jokied, “Hey, you look pretty damn good when you smile. You should do it more often p>

Alicia thought, ‘This guy used to outshine Nicolas, Maxwell, and Caleb, always holding the top campus crush spot. His looks are seriously next level.
“If he enters showbiz, he’ll have fangirls lining up for miles p>
Jason let out a helpless laugh. Thanks for the compliment p>
Alicia handed him the packet of herbs. “Go soak with these. When you’re done, I’ll do the acupuncture for you p>
She reminded him of a few things to watch out for.
Jason took the packet. “Got it p>
Then he wheeled himself into the master bathroom.
Alicia sat in the living room, playing on her phone as she waited.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Nicolas just lost his mind and smashed the wine glass he was holding.
He grabbed Maxwell’s phone and started dialing Alicia again.
But she immediately hung up, then blocked that number.
He borrowed another phone and tried calling again, but she hung up on him all over again.
When he tried one last time, her phone was already switched off.
Nicolas was driven crazy.
His face went dark as he slammed his fist on the table. “Weren’t they always at odds before? Alicia even threw down with that bastard for me.
“How the hell is she hanging out with Jason Farrell now p>
To Nicolas, it felt like a total betrayal. He just couldn’t accept it.
