Alice In Adulthood Novels & Stories

She was Moncia’s replacement and worked for Jenna this meant I had to be careful and wary of Alice, however, I also needed to keep this young girl safe. I went over to my closet and grabbed all the clothes hanging up, walking them over to my suitcase. Alice grabbed the clothes from me and started to fold them while I grabbed my shoes off the closet ground. “How old are you, Alice?” I asked her. “18,” she answered. My heart squeezed painfully in my chest; she was a legal adult, but she was technically still a child. “I see,” I murmured. “Did you know Monica?” She froze at my words, and I could tell she didn’t want to answer me; she didn’t want to say too much information.

Alice smiled sadly,”life has it way of humbling you and making you into a survivor, you go through so much that it moulds you into a completely different person than you wanted to be when you were younger. You turn into the characters you judged so much while growing up and you start making all the mistakes you judge so bad. I may be smart but the kids especially Junior didn’t take his intelligence from me. I will dare say he took his looks and intelligence all from his father. He-he took everything from Ale…”

Alice was angry with her response. From that day, she distanced herself from Evelyn. She was promiscuous and fell inlove with many people of different age and size. Later she fell pregnant and gave birth to a baby boy whose father didn't want to be responsible. After giving birth Alice didn't go back to school, she went abroad where Anna lived with her husband to help them In the bar and night club.

“I definitely don’t have a problem with that!” Rodrigo raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “What does that mean?” Alice gave him a sly look. “It means I’m not proud like Aurora. I don’t like passing up good opportunities. Since I’ve never had a choice growing up, I want to live life making the best ones.” Rodrigo smiled as he watched her walk away. “What a peculiar... and clever girl.” Alice marched over to the receptionist, placed the card on the counter, and took a deep breath.

Alice granted him access, and the assistant handed him a file containing the information he had requested. Alice nodded his head in acknowledgment and dismissed his assistant. Opening the file, he read the name "Alisha" and discovered that she was an orphan, only eighteen years old, and studying fashion design at a prestigious college on a scholarship. A smile played on Alice's lips as he pondered the contradiction between her intelligence and her innocent demeanour. She resided in the Autumn Orphanage and had never had a boyfriend, oblivious to the numerous suitors who had pursued her.

Macie said, putting in her earbuds as they spoke on the phone. "Ugh, Mr. Right is for teenagers. I'll settle for someone who doesn't cheat and treats me with basic respect," Alice said, sighing. "At our age, love doesn't feed you. And with my background, love is just a bonus surprise, not a priority." Macie sighed softly, unsure of how to respond. "Hey, don't feel sorry for me. I'm doing great," Alice added, catching Macie's sigh. "I'm richer and happier than most. I just need to keep my eyes open, that's all.

She can even go out alone with her grandparents; she can be 'normal' now. I sighed deeply. "Maybe because we've been so focused on Willow, I'm only now realizing that everyone around us is growing as well." "Hmm?" Julian, who had been fully immersed in his work, seemed unaware of these changes. I smiled and said, "Alice used to be a reckless girl who spent money lavishly, with her head filled only with romance novels and dreamy love stories. When she met a guy she was interested in, she would cling to him relentlessly, thinking that feelings could develop over time."

Feeling frustrated, I let him carry me all the way into the living room where he roughly dumped me back on my feet. Giant two was waiting for us, and he was staring at me like I was some sort of alien. "Why was she brought in here in that manner?" He snarled, his attention fully on Giant one. "Because she tried to escape Alpha." Giant one replied exasperatedly. Alpha? "She's quite a case." he added. I didn't want to listen to their discussion so I focused my attention on my surroundings. The interior was all gold and white; everything looked like it was out of a good movie.

Alice groaned not wanting to go down memory lane and have another person feel sorry for her. “That’s not saying much.” Jonah said wanting to pry, wanting to know what happened to her. His eyes had caught the inside of her arm and the large burn that was there. The red see through dress barely masked the scars that if you looked close enough could see across her body. He felt himself becoming angry at what she may have endured. “I am not joking about the Cinderella thing, there’s an evil step mother and everything. Honestly Jonah, I do not want to go down memory lane. I’ve spent enough time there recently.” Alice said fidgeting in the seat.
