Second Marriage

Chapter 486 Afraid you are not sober

“No.” Alice shook her head, “It isn’t me got hurt.”

Hearing that, Winnie widened her eyes with doubts, “I heard from Yanis that you did not get hurt, but

Grace poured you with sulfuric acid. She's a horrible woman. She should never be a client of ours.”

“Client?” Alice said gently and then gave a faint smile, “No, even if she wants to be our client, she will

have no chance.”

She took the sulfuric acid out to hurt Alice. Alice avoided it, but Kennedy got hurt.

According to Kennedy’s temperament, he would not forget her. Besides, even if Kennedy did not

investigate it, Alice would not spare her.

At the thought of Kennedy’s injury on his back, she was angry.

“What do you mean? You have a method?”

“She hurt people intentionally, she will be arrested. Even if I do nothing, she could not escape from it.”

After saying that, Alice felt faint ache between eyebrows, she had to reach out to rub on it.

Seeing that, Winnie said in a soft tone, “Didn’t you sleep well last night? I have balm here, you put a

little on your forehead, you may be better.”

With that, Winnie took a bottle of balm out from her bag and handed it to Alice.

Alice took a look at it and subconsciously wrinkled eyebrow.

She did like the smeel.

So instead of reaching for it, she just smiled at Winnie and said, “Thanks, but I'm all right. I'll be fine in a

minute.”

Winnie stared at her for a moment and then asked, “You don't like the smell, do you? Don't worry, I

didn't like it at first, but this really works. Let me help you with it.” With that, she opened the lid and then

wiped a bit on both sides of Alice’s forehead.

However, Alice felt annoyed, she did not think she was so close to Winnie, but she….

She did not show that on face. She knew Winnie was concerned about her. If she looked annoyed, it

would be hurtful.

When Winnie retreated, she smiled at Alice, “You may be better later.”

Alice also smiled at her, “Thank you.”

Winnie looked away with embarrassment and then said proudly, “I, I am not concerned about you, I

just...... I was just afraid you don't have a clear mind and can't handle things well.”

Just at this moment the elevator’s door opened, Winnie rushed out.

Alice, “...”

When she returned to the office, Yanis was at her desk dealing with things. When she came back, Alice

immediately stood up and said, “My god, I thought you were going to stay in the hospital for 24 hours, I

didn’t expect you would come back.”

Hearing her ridicule, Alice could not help but stare at her, “What? You don't care even if I'm in the

hospital for 24 hours and you still laugh at me?”

“How can I?” Yanis gave a smile, “You were in hospital, but you are not hurt, why should I care about

you?”

“Oh, I'm not in pain. Am I not tired?” Speaking of which, Alice rubbed her neck and shoulders. She

slept on chair last night, and now she felt the whole body sore, including her neck.

“Well, I won’t make fun of you. If I don’t care about you, I would not have dealt with the work for you.

Go back, I can take care of you. Have some rest, I know you will go to the hospital at night.”

Alice, “...”

She felt was she was fooled. At this thought, Alice put her hands into her pocket, squinting at Yanis.

Yanis gave a smile, “What? Am I wrong? He hurt badly for you, when will you….”

“Yanis!”

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Alice.

Yanis spat out tongue, did not continue.

After a long while, she said again, “I will deal with the business and I will take care of Jack. Go back to

have some rest. I have got the quilt ready for you. You can go to bed after a bath.” Yanis gave her a

key, “This is the key and I didn’t give it to you. keep one and I will send you the password to the door,

delete it when you read it.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Alice nodded, “Ok, the police came today?”

“No. It's too early, but they called Mr. Nelson last night. I don't know exactly what they said, but... I'm

sure that Grace will come to no good end.”

Alice, “...”

“Ok, I will take a bath and get some sleep. Call me if you need help.”

“Don't worry.”

So Alice left the company after that. She wanted to go back to the Nelson’s house, but now she had

her own house, plus Zain might still be angry, so she went back to her new house.

It was quiet in the new house, for there were no servants, and she was all alone in the empty house.

Alice went upstairs to her room, grabbed pajamas from the wardrobe and went to the bathroom to take

a bath.

After a bath, she felt the pain all over her body was gone. As she wiped her hair with a towel, she

noticed that her mobile phone was vibrating.

It was Lexi.

Why was this girl calling her?

At this thought, Alice picked up the phone, “Hello?”

“Ah, goddess, you finally answer my phone!” Lexi sounded anxious.

Alice frowned slightly, but kept wiping her hair, “What is it?”

Lexi said anxiously, “I know what Grace did to you. Are you ok?”

“Yes.” Alice answered.

Hearing that, Lexi took a breath of relief, but then she was nervous again.

“I called her, but she did not answer my phone. I told you the other day that she wasn't a good person.

Be careful.”

“Yeah, I know.”

Lexi had been explaining, “I'm sorry, I didn't expect that she would do that to you. It is my fault, if I didn't

introduce her to you.”

Hearing that, Alice thought about what happened before and then said softly, “It is not your fault. Even

without you, she would come to me since she had a blind date with Kennedy.”

A person's character could not change suddenly.
