He had spoken so clearly. Alice, who had been half suspicious, was now certain, and she squinted at him.
“You found out, and you're not going to tell me?”
Kennedy calmly looked at her, “Knowing too much is not good for you.”
“But I'm involved. I have a right to know it, don't I?”
“So what? What can you do? Confrontation or revenge?”
Alice was stunned. After looking at Kennedy for a while, suddenly she was angry.
“So you think it's for my good. You've chosen not to tell me the truth, because it's no good knowing too much?”
“Alice.”
“Am I right?”
Kennedy sighed and leaned over, “Do you want to know it? Even if the trouble is solved, you still want to know?”
Alice clenched her fist and nodded firmly, “I have the right to know.”
Of course she had to know who it was for she'd been scared so many times.
Seeing the firmness of her eyes and the stubbornness of her face, Kennedy knew that if he didn't tell her, she would check it.
After thinking for a moment, he gave her a hint.
“Actually, you know her.”
“Nonsense, if he doesn’t know me, why did she want to harm me?”
Kennedy, “... your old friend.”
“My friend?” Alice wondered who it would be. She did not have so much old friends and she did not know who would be so vicious to her.
“Have no idea?” Kennedy gave a helpless smile, stretched out his hand to play with her hair, “You will be very disappointed, that is why I didn't tell you.”
“If you really want to know, I'll send you there tomorrow. You'll see.”
Alice, “...”
After Kennedy left, Alice sat in the room alone to recall his words before he left.
An old friend? and she would be disappointed?
Who was it?
Suddenly, someone came to her mind, but she soon shook her head vigorously.
No, she could not blame anyone until she saw who it was.
In order to suppress the chaotic thoughts in her mind, Alice got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
She turned on the shower head, allowed the warm water to scour herself. As the hot air rose, Alice calmed down gradually.

The second day
Kennedy took Alice out.
When entering the elevator, Alice said coldly, “After seeing that person today, you don't need to follow me anymore, go back to your work.”
Kennedy peered at her and gave a smile, “You are ruthless. You want to throw me away after using me?”
Alice, “...”
She looked at him angrily. “Didn't you agree to give me a month?”
“When did I say I will give you a month?” Kennedy raised his eyebrows, and showed an evil smile, “I am willing to give you time and space to consider, but it doesn’t mean we can't see each other.”
So he still wanted to meet her?
What about the deal they made yesterday?
