Her Second Marriage, Being Mr. Moore's New Wife novel Chapter 660

“20 minutes?” Kennedy said with dissatisfaction, Alice had to explain, “I pass by the supermarket and want to buy something. Since you have to be at my door, can’t you wait?”

“Which supermarket? I'll pick you up.”

“No!” Alice refused his request, flurried.

If he picked her up, he would find out the truth. Alice took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

“You don't need to pick me up. I'll just buy something and I will be back soon. If you get tired of waiting, you can go back to your house and I'll meet you later.”

After the words out, there was a long silence, finally he agreed.

“Ok.”

After hanging up the phone, Alice was relieved and covered her chest, feeling that her heart was beating very fast.

If she lied too much, she would feel guilty in the future, right?

But Alice could not tell the truth with Kennedy. If she had said she was at the hospital, he would have come straight away, and if he found out she had come to see Manfred, things would have been more complicated.

Though she knew she should not have come to see Manfred, she could not have been so cruel.

So Alice told herself, after making sure Manfred was ok from the doctor, she would go back immediately.

“Miss Nelson, is there business at this time?” Tim could not help asking her.

Hearing that, Alice looked at him, “No, it is my family, why?”

“Nothing, I thought you have not finished your work yet, and I am sorry to let you come.” Tim smiled and then added, “By the way, do you have a boyfriend?”

Alice, “... it is a strange question, isn't it?”

“Eh?”

“You know nothing about Mr. Manfred yet, but you asked me this question, do you think it is appropriate?”

Alice looked at him sharply, Tim smiled awkwardly, while stretching his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, “Haha, I...... I am just looking for topics. If you mind, I won't ask anything. I'm really sorry.”

Alice finally took back her vision, looking at the ward in the front.

Silence around seemed to be awkward. Tim looked at Alice’s cold side face, but dare not speak.

He could only wait until the doctor came out.

“Who is the family?”

Alice stood still. Tim waited for a while and had to go forward.

“Hello doctor, I am a friend of the patient, his family is not here, you can tell us his situation.”

“The patient has acute gastroenteritis and is now fine. If he is ok in the evening, he can be discharged. He should pay more attention to his diet.”

“Yes, yes, thank you, doctor. I'll let him know.”

After the doctor walked away, Tim stepped into the ward, took a few steps but found Alice did not move, he could not help looking back to Alice.

“Miss Nelson, won't you go in?”

Alice smiled slightly, “since he is ok, I gotta go.”

“Well......”
