“But I'm still young...” Jack had a face of grievance, “And I only have Mommy to love me.”
Hearing that, Alice’s smile became stiff.
This topic Again, she rubbed Jack's head and whispered, “Just wait. Give me some time. I will find daddy for you.”
“It's a deal, Mommy.”
The mobile phone vibrated, Alice took a look and found it was Kennedy’s message.
“Mommy, your phone is ringing.” Jack reminded her, and then got up to take the phone. Alice’s face slightly changed and she hurried to hold his arm, “Jack, it is late, sleep now, children can't sleep too late.”
“Oh, ok”! Jack nodded his head, lay down on her side, and obediently closed his eyes.
In a short while, his breath gradually become even, Alice finally felt relieved. And then she quietly took the phone over, turned it into mute, and did not click the message until she was sure it would not wake up Jack.
It was a Wechat message from Kennedy.
{It is settled. How do you like to thank me?}
Seeing this message, Alice was confused and wondered what was wrong with him. He wanted thanks? Was it because of him that things happened?
Alice could not help but roll her eyes toward the air, and then typed down word by word.
{Mr. Kennedy, if not for your amazing move, I would not have been exposed, as well as my company. Who knows that if I will be physically attacked, or have life danger.}
Not long after the message was sent, he replied in seconds.
{Who dares touch my woman?}
“......”
Seeing this sentence, her heart missed half beat, but soon she felt speechless.
She didn't want to talk to him and simply put the phone away.
Then she went to brush teeth and wash face. When she came back and was ready to go to bed, she found the screen was bright. Kennedy sent her a message again.
{I'll send someone to keep you safe and you won't get hurt.}
Hearing that he would send someone to protect her own safety, Alice thought he had conscience, but she still did not reply, but turned off the phone and went to bed to sleep.
The second day early in the morning, Alice was ready to be scolded by Grace in the company.
But strange was that she waited for a morning, Grace did not appear.
By rights, she was so arrogant yesterday, she should be there on time. Why hadn’t she come??
Alice was curious and sent a message to Lexi.
Lexi was an actress, so she was busy for filming and endorsement. When she was idle, she might fall asleep once she closed her eyes. Plus, Lexi had nothing to worry about, so she often feel asleep when she was doing make-up.
Now, she had just finished filming and was so tired that she fell asleep as she lay down on the sofa.
Finnley stepped forward to pat her face, “You can't sleep. Get up and remove makeup before you sleep.”
“Get out of here!” Lexi kicked at Finnley and said with dissatisfaction, “I want to sleep, I don’t want to remove the makeup. I am tired to dead......”
Finnley could only make a wink toward the assistant, and then the assistant soon sent makeup removers. Finnley sat patiently to remove the make-up for Lexi.
