Before Seth was a powerful woman, a woman with unimaginable clout, and now here she was currently hugging him and tearfully begging him to show her mercy.
Anyone who was watching this scene would think Alice was Seth's mother while he was a prodigal son that was about to commit an atrocity and had brought his mother to tears, but the truth was far from what one would make of the current situation.
The only reason that Alice was the one begging him and not the other way around was because of his strength, Seth didn't know what Alice's plan for him was, but remembering the air of confidence and superiority surrounding her earlier gave Seth an inkling to the thought that had been pervading her mind.
While Seth had felt no desire of ill will for his person from Alice, the amusing look she had thrown at him like he was a new breed of flower she had just gotten was not missed by Seth.
