Five minutes later, Jensen and Alice stepped out from the room.
Alice's face was still flushed. It was obvious that something had happened in there.
At the same time, Grace came out from Gary's room. When she saw them coming out of the room together, and then Alice's burning face, she felt a little surprised.
She directed her gaze to Jensen suspiciously.
Jensen secretly made an 'OK' gesture.
Grace was stunned. Did something good happen? That quickly?
"You should leave now, Jensen." Alice was embarrassed, she couldn't wait to get Jensen out of her sight. "Hurry up and leave my house."
"No," Jensen refused right away. With a smile on his face, he said, "I'm staying for dinner."
"Who allowed you to stay for dinner?" Alice said with a serious tone.
"You are my girlfriend-" Jensen said quickly, but at the moment he opened his mouth, it was blocked by Alice.
The rest of the words were stuck in his throat.
Alice covered Jensen's mouth forcefully and held his neck from behind him with her hands.
Jensen was taken aback. He could feel Alice's
breasts pressing onto his back.
Grace raised her eyebrows and said, "Girlfriend? Did I hear that wrongly?"
"Yes, you did, " Alice shouted and then said to Jensen sternly, "You're not welcomed here. Get out of my house, okay?"
Jensen widened his eyes. It was clear that he didn't want to leave, but he didn't say anything.
"Did you hear me?" Alice raised her voice again.
Grace saw the awkward look on her face and said with a smile, "How is he going to talk if you keep covering his mouth?"
"He-" For a moment, Alice couldn't say a word and quickly let go of her hands.
Gaining back his freedom, Jensen said with his face slightly flushed, "I'm already your boyfriend. Of course I'm staying for dinner."
"Jensen!" Alice called out again.
Grace heard it clearly. She hadn't thought that Jensen would work things out with Alice in such a short period of time.
"Alice, it's only fair that you share your joy with your sister, isn't it?"
Alice was speechless and looked at Grace with embarrassment.
Grace smiled and continued, "It's good that you have a boyfriend now. There's nothing to hide. I'm not going to laugh at you." "But you're laughing now," Alice said.
Grace was indeed laughing because her mood had been lifted by the news.
"Haha, okay, I won't laugh anymore." She said, "Since Officer Charm is already here, it'd be rude not to invite him for dinner."
Still looking angry, Alice groaned and threw Jensen a glare.
