Listening to their conversation, Alice was embarrassed.
“Who are you?” the woman looked at Manfred curiously. This woman was handsome and fixed his eyes on Alice, so she wanted to gossip about him. From Alice’s attitude to him, she wondered if Alice dated two men at the same time.
But from just now, she did not think Alice would do that, so she looked at Manfred.
“Why are you here?” Alice asked.
Manfred gave a faint smile, “It is a coincident.”
“Really?” Alice did not believe it. From the two times they met before and what he did, Alice felt he was intentional to be there.
She had made it clear with him, but she was not a fool.
Because the woman was with her, so she did not talk too much, but the woman was shrew, sure she saw there was something wrong between them.
She gave an embarrassing smile, but she did not walk away.
Alice was touched by that, if the woman walked away and Kennedy saw them talking, he must be furious.
So she looked at the woman gracefully and said, “What do you want to buy?”
“No, that is all, but I will some tissue before I go home.”
Alice nodded, “Ok, I will go with you.”
And then she looked at Manfred, “Mr. Manfred, we have to go buy something, we gotta go.” With that, she gave a smile, held the woman’s arm and left.
After a few steps, the woman looked back, “He is following us.”
Hearing that, Alice frowned. She had made everything clear, why did Manfred follow her?
“Does he like you?” the woman said, Alice shook her head, “No.”
He did say he liked her, but it was five years ago and she was Kennedy’s wife back them. At that time Alice felt he was his plan, or why he wanted to steal his brother’s wife?
But in that car accident, he protected her, so Alice felt he really liked her.
But five years had been passed.
Even if he liked her, he might have changed, so Alice did not think of it.
“Why not? Didn’t you see his eyes?”
Alice said, “No.”
“Are you that stupid? He has affection in his eyes like the way your husband looks at you. You did not see that?”
Alice was confused and asked, “The way my husband looks at me?”
The woman felt she was shy so she explained with a smile, “When you look at the man you like, you will have light in eyes.”
