Second Marriage

Chapter 422 There Is Nothing to Explain Between Us

Alice just wrapped the tape measure around his waist. Hearing this question from him, she paused. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

She sneered and tightened the tape measure.

Hate?

Why did he think she hated him? Did he worth of her hating him?

"Mr. Kennedy is joking. You are my guest. How could I hate you?" Alice pretended not to understand

what he said, and wanted to muddle through it.

However, Kennedy frowned deeply.

"Is it?"

His voice was so light that she could hardly hear his emotions, "Then can you be a little gentle?"

Only then did Alice realize that she had tightened the tape measure a lot that Kennedy's waist was

almost deforming.

"...Sorry!"

She withdrew her hands abruptly. Some cold sweats were on her forehead.

Alice lowered her eyes and couldn't help biting her lower lip in annoyance. How could she be affected

by him so easily?

The room fell into an awkward silence. Alice wrote down the dimensions, and then took a step back

with the tape measure. She picked up the notebook and wrote down all the dimensions just measured,

so as not to forget it later.

Kennedy stood behind her, watching her petite figure.

"If you don't hate me, why do you treat me as a stranger?"

Alice's pen was stopped. She didn't answer, but recorded it carefully. After she finished the work, she

put the small notebook away, and then stood up to face Kennedy.

"My job has been completed. Mr. Kennedy, thank you for your cooperation today. I still have other

things to do, so I have to leave first."

After speaking, Alice turned around and was about to leave here.

Her wrist was suddenly held by him. Alice froze in place.

What was he doing?

"Hate me so much? You don't even want to stay with me for a moment?"

For some reason, Alice actually heard a tinge of self-deprecating pain from his words. Did she hear

wrong?

"How could it be! Today is the weekend. I really have other things to do."

She tried to struggle a bit, trying to withdraw her hand.

But Kennedy squeezed her wrists tighter. Alice felt it hurt and she frowned. Then she turned her head

back.

"If it wasn't the weekend today, if it wasn't for you to have other things to be busy with, would you be

willing to stay with me for a while?"

Alice was speechless.

What on earth did he want to do? He said that he was married, but why was he acting in such a

pathetic manner now?

Was it to lure her into being deceived? Then he could severely abandon her and hurt her again?

Thinking of this possibility, the look in Alice's eyes became very cold. She wanted to withdraw her hand,

but Kennedy held it tightly. She could only helplessly say, "Mr. Kennedy, I really have other things to do.

Please let me go."

"Nope." For the first time, Kennedy acted like a spoiled child. He looked at her sadly, "Would you like to

hear me explain?"

What? Alice was stunned for a moment. Listen to his explanation?

Explain what? The matters about five years ago?

Her face paled a bit. After a while, Alice smiled awkwardly, "Mr. Kennedy, I don't think... you have

anything to explain to me."

Kennedy gave a deep laugh. His laugher was full of self-deprecation, "It seems that you don't want to

listen to my explanation, but what should I do if I don't want to let you go?"

Alice struggled, frowning. She was looking at Kennedy displeased.

Kennedy's eyes were very deep, as if he was about to see through her soul. Alice didn't dare to look

into his eyes at all. She could only retreat hard.

While she was struggling, Kennedy seemed to be angry. He directly pulled her over and pressed her on

the soft sofa behind him.

"What!"

With an exclamation, Alice was pressed under him. Kennedy’s face got close to her.

Snapped--

Alice stretched out her hand to slap him without hesitation.

A slap hit him directly in the face.

Almost without hesitation, when Alice saw him kiss her, the first thing popped into Alice's mind was that

he was married, and then she naturally slapped him.

The room was silent for a few seconds. Kennedy froze there. He fixedly looked at Alice. His tightly

pressed thin lips looked a little pale.

Probably because of anger, his chest was constantly rising and falling.

"Kennedy, I didn't want to talk with you about this, but do you remember what you said yesterday? You

treat me like this now, wouldn't you feel guilty? If you do this, you won’t feel sorry for her?"

Kennedy said, "What?"

What did he say yesterday? Kennedy was a little confused and looked at her puzzled.

Alice sneered, "Married! Since Mr. Kennedy is already married, please control yourself and don't do

anything way out of line to me."

Hearing that, Kennedy was stunned for a moment. Then he couldn't help laughing out loud after a

while.

"... Because I'm married, I can't touch you anymore?"

Alice was so angry, "You!"

When did he become so shameless?

"Or, are you jealous?" Before Alice could say other words, Kennedy raised his eyebrows and teased

her again.

Alice said, "Jealous? Mr. Kennedy can't help but value yourself too much!"

She pushed him away forcefully, then stood up from the sofa, patted her clothes and said coldly, "I

hope this will be the last time. If Mr. Kennedy treats me so disrespectfully in the future, I would rather

ruin the contract. I won’t cooperate with you again."

This time, Alice didn't give him a chance to react, but directly grabbed her bag and got up and left.

Looking at her back, the expression on Kennedy's face was thoughtful.

He thought carefully about the words she had just said, and then gradually figured it out.

This stupid woman!

Did she think he was already married to another woman? That was why her reaction was so intense?

Thinking of this, Kennedy reached out to touch his face which was slapped by her.

It really hurt.

She was really ruthless! But... she was angry.

Kennedy thought she was jealous, so she was so ruthless to him.

Suddenly, Kennedy thought of another thing, and then he narrowed his eyes.

She actually didn't know that they hadn't gotten divorced yet? They were still husband and wife on the

registration of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

From the time they met until now, Kennedy thought she knew it, but he didn't expect... Looking at her

reactions today, she probably didn't know about it.

Who concealed her?

Alice came out about half an hour after entering. The attitudes of several people outside changed a lot.

"Good bye, Miss Alice. Welcome to come again next time."

"See you next time, Miss Alice."

Alice stepped on high heels, feeling so speechless.
