"Alice?" Heinz caught a glance of her as he turned sideways. He noticed the expression on her face and a bad feeling arose in his heart. She had heard their conversation. This wasn't good.
Jensen froze. He turned around and his gaze met with hers. Her eyes were blank as she looked at him and his heart ached.
Jensen also forgot to react.
He had never imagined that Alice would look at him this way. Her eyes were filled with accusations; she had been lied to and she was disappointed, terrified, and in despair.
"Alice, listen to me!" Jensen immediately said, "I'll explain everything."
Alice gazed at him and asked in a soft voice, "Was what you guys said true?"
Jensen stood there motionlessly. A trace of worry flitted across his eyes, but still he nodded. "Yes, the man from six years ago was me."
Alice's heart suddenly sank.
So it was Jensen.
The one who had started her endless nightmares six years ago was Jensen.
Heinz was also very worried. It seemed that Alice had heard it all.
Heinz smiled awkwardly, put out his cigarette, and said to them, "You two can have a good talk. Since she found out about it, you should be honest with each other. Anyway, it's just the two of you. There's nothing you guys can't get through together!"
After that, Heinz turned around and left. He entered the room that Grace was in.
After entering, Heinz secretly took a deep breath. Sh*t!
He shouldn't have gone out.
Grace was coaxing the children to sleep and he couldn't stand it any longer so he went out for a smoke.
He hadn't expected that everything would be messed up after talking to Jensen.
Heinz was speechless.
He took a deep breath. He saw that Grace was still awake and she had come out to see him.
"What's wrong with you?" She asked curiously.
"Huh?" Heinz didn't want her to be worried, so he replied calmly, "I'm fine. I went out to smoke." "Hurry up and go to sleep." Grace came over and said worriedly, "I don't know how my cousin's doing now."
Heinz replied, "Don't worry. If Old Master Carter is gone, your cousin will call. Since he hasn't called us yet, everything must be going smoothly."
Grace nodded.
Heinz saw that she wasn't doubtful at all, but he also felt that if he didn't tell her about it now, she would become deeply angered if she came to know about it the next day.
He thought for a moment and decided to tell her. "Grace."
"Yes?" She glanced at him and asked, "Do you have anything to say?"
"Yes."
"Then why don't you just say it?" Grace could not stand it whenever he wouldn't just say what was on his mind. "You're a man. Just be more direct."
"Of course I'm a man." Heinz nodded and said quickly, "I'm in trouble."
"Trouble?" Grace frowned again. "What kind of trouble did you get into?"
"Your sister and Jensen were together tonight. They finally slept with each other. It should've been a good thing."
