Chapter 525 I Mean No Harm
Chapter 525 I Mean No Harm
She had been a mother.
Alice's smile faded a bit and did not answer Zain.
After spending a lot of time in the amusement park, Yanis and Jack fell asleep close to each other as
soon as they got in the car.
After all, they rode many entertainment facilities together, and Zain and Alice were just watching them.
"Shall we go to have dinner?" Zain's seat belted, looking back at the people in the back seat.
Alice also looked back, thought about it, and shook her head, "Let's go home. They are too tired. Go
back and let them rest. I can just make some food at home in the evening."
"Yeah." Zain nodded. He had the same idea as Alice.
Alice had to go shopping for food to cook, but she was worried if there was no one looking after Jack
and Yanis. Thus, she asked Zain to stay at home to look after them, and she went to the nearby
supermarket alone.
Without Jack, who was very curious and interested in everything, Alice quickly bought everything she
needed. When she was pushing her shopping cart to check out, she met a familiar man around the
corner.
His white collar was ironed without a wrinkle. Dark blue suit made him look masculine. When she
looked at him, he smiled warmly.
Alice paused for a while, and then pushed her shopping cart on as if she hadn't seen the person.
Alice didn't expect to meet Manfred here again.
Seeing that she was still ignoring him, Manfred didn't show any surprised expressions on his face. He
probably guessed that Alice would treat him like this a long time ago.
So he quickly turned to catch up with her.
"You threw away the phone number I gave you, right?"
He asked as he walked side by side with her.
Alice pursed her red lips. She looked indifferent and did not answer him.
Manfred smiled and didn't care, and explained, "I waited for a long time, and you didn't call me. So, I
can only come to the supermarket to wait for you."
His words made Alice pause again. But then, she continued moving forward, not wanting to talk to him.
"We are old friends, are you really reluctant to say a word to me? You can just say hello to me."
Alice still didn't reply.
Manfred followed her to the checkout counter. Before Alice moved, Manfred had already reached out
and took the items in the shopping cart out and put them on the counter.
Alice, "..."
The combination of handsome man and beautiful woman was always particularly eye-catching. In
addition, Alice and Manfred were conspicuous in the crowd, and Manfred's actions were so
considerate, making the cashier envy. The cashier could not help but praise, "Miss, your boyfriend is so
handsome."
Manfred was stiffed, and then he glanced at Alice.
She looked calm, and finally spoke.
"He is not my boyfriend, and I don't know him either."
The smile on the cashier's face disappeared completely.
She pulled her lips awkwardly, and then glanced at Manfred's hand. If Alice didn't know him, why did
this man help her? Was he...just accommodating?
Or maybe, he just ran into Alice in the supermarket and wanted to start a conversation because Alice
was beautiful?
The cashier started to check out for Alice after imagining various stories. Alice did not give Manfred
another chance this time, and quickly handed out the bank card.
To swipe the card, she must press the password.
When the cashier handed the cipher machine over, Alice just wanted to turn her head to remind
Manfred that he should walk away. She did not expect that he had turned around consciously and
didn't look at her again.
Alice, "..."
She quickly entered the password, then retrieved the bank card, carried the bag and left directly.
After leaving the supermarket, Alice planned to walk back, but found there was another shadow under
the street lamp.
She was really angry and helpless, she didn't want him to follow her, she didn't want to admit knowing
him, and she didn't want to talk to him.
After walking for a short distance, Alice stopped in anger, but Manfred suddenly stepped forward to
take her bag.
"Is it too heavy? Let me help you."
Alice, "..."
Did she hallucinate? Why were the personalities of Manfred and Kennedy completely different from five
years ago?
Of course, the person with the biggest personality change was Kennedy.
Could five years really change a person?
No, not at all.
After all, she had seen how Kennedy treated other people. Whether it was to the employees of his
company or Grace, he was still indifferent.
But to her...
What happened in the past five years?
She looked at the bag taken by Manfred, and when she was about to refuse him, Manfred said, "You
live in the front community? I see you came out from there. Let's go, I'll walk with you to the gate."
Alice, "..."
After speaking, Manfred walked forward first, and his tall and slender shadow was very long under the
street lamp.
Alice thought for a while, and stepped up to follow him.
When they reached the gate of the community, Manfred stopped and he said, "OK, you can go in, pay
attention to safety at night."
Alice took her bag, without even thinking about it, turned around and entered the community.
After walking a few steps, she still felt Manfred staring at her. She paused, then turned around and took
a look.
Manfred still showed a warm smile on his face, just like before...
Should she told him that she was Charlotte?
Alice was hesitant, and she bit her lower lip in a complex mood.
Manfred was very empathetic. After seeing Alice's look, he was shocked. After a while, he smiled and
said, "Don't think too much, I have no malice. I just want to meet you, my old friend."
Was it really just meeting with an old friend ?
Alice always felt that this matter was not that simple.
His appearance made the gears of fate turn one by one, and many things... would not be as simple as
before.
In the end, Alice didn't say a word, turned and disappeared from Manfred's view.
When the woman in front of him had completely disappeared, Manfred looked back, and the smile on
his face also disappeared little by little.
He took out his phone and clicked on the photo of the child that his assistant had sent him.
The child closely resembled Kennedy, and his eyes were as cold as Alice. The child was pretty
beautiful.
People could remember him at a glance.
His assistant searched all the information, and it took a long time to find such a frontal photo, which
was still a little blurry. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
It seemed that Alice had protected this child very well over the years.
As for why she protected him so well, Manfred put away the phone, and an insidious look flashed in his
eyes.
He thought he would know the answer soon.
