There was a girl beside Alina's father. She looked delicate and young with an approachable appearance. She gives a contrast feeling to that of Alina and has an aura that makes others comfortable around her.
The delicate woman is none other than Carolina Xi (Xi Feng Mian), Alina's younger sister with a delicate voice and a gentle disposition that could evoke emotions in men.
Carolina had a worrying expression due to the spectacle Alina had created.
This made people think of her as a filial and thoughtful while Alina was looked as a spoiled brat and inconsiderate for not thinking about the Xi family's reputation.
The fact that she didn't give a damn about the Li family's retaliation shows how reckless she was.
Carolina looked around as her worried expression intensified but deep inside, she's jumping with joy.
Her patience was limited yet she tolerated her elder sister for so long. Even though Jamie promised her that his marital relationship with Alina will only be façade, she was still worried.
And how can she not worry? Her sister is a great beauty and which man would resist a beautiful temptation.
Compared to her, her sister is like a thousand year old wine. The more you drink, the more you get addicted. Carolina was very clear about this.
She was an expert in seduction hence she could see people's potential.
She hated this sister of hers with pure passion. Even though she has her parents love, Alina has the love of the people with power and authority.
She felt her sister is an ungrateful brat who has everything and never appreciated it.
They were both biological sisters yet their grandparents treated them differently.
To outsiders, Alina was the fake princess but she knew Alina was the true heir of Xi Corporation.
But now that those two oldies were dead, Alina's good days were over. Now it's her time to shine and conquer.
She smirked to herself feeling elated with her sister's misfortune. Finally, that idiot had some sense that she should not eye something that's not hers.
But, why is she feeling a sense of crisis?
She couldn't contemplate as the people around her were taking pictures and posting on different social media platforms.
Especially the most popular social media Qinsta, widely used for explosive news, rumors and gossip, mostly used by the university students.
In this era, who doesn't have smart phones and a social media account? The incident of Alina walking away from her marriage caused an uproar.

All those hash tags appeared online. The incident became talk of the Metropolitan city. The Xi's and the Li's didn't anticipate this situation.
They were caught off guard, especially the branch family of the Li's. If the main family heard what that stupid woman said, there would be hell to pay.
Jamie Li felt his heart's gonna explode. It was already too late and he needs to stop this before it blew up further. Hence he did not run after Alina.
In mere five minutes, her being the runaway bride topped the search in social media platforms. After all, despite being the heiress of Xi family, she was never seen outside and was hidden from everyone.
Hence they thought she was a weak willed girl. It was her younger sister who is in limelight and since Carolina was pretty and likable unlike her elder sister who was rumored to be ugly with a horrid personality.
All the rumors are contradicting and Alina never made her position clear hence people took advantage of her.
But many questioned the rumors. If she has a horrid personality, how can she be weak willed?
It's just ridiculous. Now that Alina made such a dramatic debut, everyone thought they shouldn't believe the rumors. Who would say she's weak willed after watching her standing up for herself?
No weak girl would give off such a formidable aura.
Every wealthy family has a dirty secret. They were curious about the reason she ran away from her wedding.
Even though she made clear of some things, many felt she was making excuses as Jamie Li has good reputation and clean background.
