Chapter 37
Alice was initially only going to hurl a few snappy retorts at them, but the way they were going to hit her
precious Coco changed everything. She would be sorry to let them off just like that. She wanted to
make them hurt.
Drake did not expect Alice to be so strong. He thought she was about to crush the bones in his wrist.
Jaw tightening furiously, he freed his wrist from her grasp with some effort.
Taking a few steps back, he hid behind his wife. “A gentleman does not quarrel with a lady!” he spat
out. “I’m going to call Mr. Kaur right now!”
At the same time, Coco’s eyes swept coldly in Drake’s direction. He tugged Alice’s hand and said, “We
can call Mr. Kaur too,
sis.”
His voice rang out crystal clear. Everyone around them heard him,
The pregnant lady started to snigger loudly at those words. “Oh my go d! This is too funny! Who does
this little brat think he is? Does he think Mr. Kaur would answer his call?”
Drake cast a disdainful glare at Coco. “Little brat, Mr. Kaur is far too rich and way above your station.
He is not contactable by the likes of you, you impoverished gnats!”
“Even if you have his number, there is no way he would answer.” The pregnant lady gloated at them.
She turned to Drake and continued arrogantly, “Why don’t you give him a call now, honey? Let them
see how influential we are!”
“Good idea!” Drake took out his phone and a name card from his other pocket.
He had gotten this name card a short while ago by shamelessly going up to Mr. Kaur’s secretary and
asking for it. The children saw the name card in Drake’s hand and exchanged a look. Then, Benny
reached into his backpack and took out an identical name card.
He handed it over to Alice.
“You can call him too, sis! Mr. Kaur will definitely answer your call!” Coco stated clearly.
The pregnant lady let loose another round of laughter. “Who do you think your sister is? She is a
nobody! How can you presume that Mr. Kaur would answer her call?”
A sly gleam appeared in Aidy’s eyes just then. He shouted suddenly, “Do you dare to make a bet with
my sister, ma’am?”
Upon hearing those words, Drake froze while making the call. “What are the stakes?”
Aidy exchanged a look with Alice before saying, “If you make the call and Mr. Kaur picks it up, we will
do anything you ask.
On the other hand, if Mr. Kaur does not pick up your call and answers ours instead, both of you have to
kneel on the ground and bark like a dog! You also have to apologize to my sister!”
Drake chuckled. “If Mr. Kaur picks up my call, will you really do anything I say?” He eyed Alice
lasciviously. The lewd ideas he had previously harbored about her were rising again.
Aidy grabbed Alice’s hand, blinking at her. “mommy, do you trust me?” he whispered.
Alice nodded her head. It did not matter if the legendary Mr. Kaur did answer her call or if he did not.
Right now, it was more important for her to trust her children.
They were a family. She should place her trust in them.
“You can call first! We will hold true to the terms of the bet!” Aidy folded his arms and stood in the
stroller.
He might be small in stature, but he suddenly appeared to possess the aristocratic aura only a grown-
up would have. It gave Drake pause.
His wife was urging him impatiently from the side. He did not want to disappoint her. Drake called the
number on the name card.
However, the first call went through. It went unanswered.
The same with the second call.
By the third call, the other side seemed to have lost his patience. The call was hung up abruptly.
The salesperson was standing right next to Drake and saw what had happened. When the call ended,
her expression changed.
Drake did not expect Daniel not to pick up his call. To alleviate his humiliation, he smiled and said, “Mr.
Kaur is busy now. He will call me back in a moment.”

He signaled to his wife with a single look. The pregnant lady understood instantly. She turned and
grinned coldly at Alice. “Go on. Call him. It will be worse for you!”
