Hearing that, Yanis gave a light cough, "I have found a good strategist, I certainly will not forget."
"If you're sure, remember to post the recruitment ad and hire an assistant."
"Ok... Well, the office is getting busier and busier, and when you're not around, I feel dizzy. I'd better find one."
After two people reached a consensus, Alice thought of her own worries. She sat down in front of the desk, looking at the Yanis, like she was about to say but stopped.
"What's the matter with you? Say what you have to say, and don't sit there and look at me like a disgruntled woman. It's a good thing I'm a woman, or people would think I'm a deceitful man."
Alice, "..."
Yanis put down the document, pulled a chair and sat next to Alice.
"Well, what's the trouble? Go ahead."
Alice took a look at Yanis, "I haven't thought how to tell you."
Yanis thought about the things that happened these days and asked directly, "Are you with him?"
Although embarrassed, Alice bit her lower lip and nodded, probably uneasy, after that, she asked.
"Am I being silly? I had already decided not to be with him again, after all, he caused me harm before... But I..."
She lowered her eyes guiltily. "I can't seem to help myself."
See her hanging eyes worriedly, Yanis grabbed her hand and said softly, "No, you can't control your feelings, and you can't hide your love for someone. I've been by your side for five years, and of course I know you've always had him in your heart. That's why I encouraged you to be with him before. Actually, we are all the same, when you really like a person, even if you know it is mountains of fire ahead, you will pounce to it desperately."
Just like herself, knowing that Zain didn't like her, she could not give up.
She knew that if she had given up earlier, she would have suffered less.
But her heart was filed with Zain, as if she could only see him.
So what could she do? Should she give up and live a lonely life?
Yanis knew she would not like others like she did for Zain, since she had been in love with her for so long, so...... She must try while she still had the chance.
It was like a flying moth darts into the fire, it was nature.
Just like Alice liked Kennedy and Kennedy liked Alice.
After five years, neither man had changed.
It was meant to be.
"Actually, there is one thing I have not told you in all these years."
Alice added.
"What is it? There's something I don't know about you?"
Actually, in the eyes of all people, when they saw Jack and Kennedy look exactly the same, there was no strange at all, because in their eyes, she had been married to Kennedy before, and after divorce, she gave birth to Jack, so they naturally thought Kennedy was the father.
However, Alice did not know it. She was deceived by Diana, so Alice had always believed that Manfred was the father.
And Kennedy didn't know anything about that rainy night, while the whole world knew that they were Jack’s parents.
Only they didn't know it.
Now Alice knew the truth, so only Kennedy didn’t know it.
