"I have some work to do, so I will go out later. But you can't go out with me. You have to hide behind the sofa and can't come out, okay?"
Jack's innocent look made Alice feel guilty. However, to protect him, she had to endure the guilt in her heart.
Sure enough, Jack showed a curious expression when he heard it.
"Mommy, why? I want to go home with you. Don't you miss me?" At this point, Jack wrapped his hands and feet around Alice's arm with a grimace. He looked a bit pitiful.
"Of course, I miss you. I also want to stay with you all the time. But I have to work. Jack... haven't you... been very considerate? Please do me a favor, and promise me, okay?"
Having said that, Alice held Jack's palm back and shook it gently, hoping that he could agree.
Jack pursed his lips in dissatisfaction at first. However, seeing Alice begging him, he suddenly became unbearable, pursed his lips, and nodded reluctantly after a while.
"Well, since you have said that, if I don't agree, you will think I am not well-behaved."
"You agreed?" Alice embraced Jack with great joy, kissed and rubbed his soft cheeks excitedly, with a deep sense of satisfaction and pride in her voice.
"Thank you, Jack."
Jack patted Alice on the back of the head with a proud look, and spoke very loyally, "Mommy, I'm your lovely baby. You're too welcome."
While they were talking, a cold voice came from outside.
Alice was taken aback, Jack blinked and looked at her harmlessly.
"Is this person that Mommy is afraid of?"
"Yes." Alice nodded, stretched out her hand to cover Jack's ears, then smiled at him, and said to him, "Be obedient."
Jack nodded obediently, and took the initiative to put out his hand instead of Alice's hand to cover his ears. This scene made Alice very upset.
Jack was really the best and best-behaved baby in the world. Otherwise...how could he take the initiative to reach out to cover his ears by himself?
Alice rubbed his head, watched him hide behind the sofa, waved at him, and got up.
Stopping recalling, Alice came back to her senses. She had been carried into the elevator by Kennedy, and the elevator was slowly descending.
His car was parked at the door downstairs, so if he hugged her and went out, she would definitely be seen by others.
Thinking of this, Alice squeezed Kennedy's hand.
"I can really come down and walk by myself. Let me down."
Kennedy's thin lips were pressed tightly, as if he hadn't heard what she said.
When she was about to reach the first floor, Alice had no choice but to yield, "Even if you want to hug me, don't hug me here. Let me walk to the car by myself, okay?"
Kennedy lowered her head, the woman in her arms hooked his neck, and her look was full of pleadings. How could Kennedy refuse her?
Before Alice could speak, Kennedy had put her down.
When Alice stood on the ground, she thought it was her own delusion. When did Kennedy become so obedient to her?
But she didn't have time to think about it, because it didn't take long time for the elevator door to open. Alice didn't have time to care about anything else. She stepped forward and hurried out.
Seeing her walking fast, Kennedy frowned slightly and quickly followed.

Kennedy's car was parked downstairs of the company. Alice saw it from a distance and walked over directly, then opened the car door directly and sat into the passenger seat.
