The Carlos family.
Alice had already heard of it, the family had a high rank in the world and now there was only one old man who ran all the family business.
When Alice was a designer at the time, she had some business dealings with the Carlos family people, and later her colleague was very excited to see the Carlos family people and introduced her to everything about the family.
Her colleague was especially excited at that time and said that the Carlos family was especially powerful, but although the family was powerful, there was only one elder in charge of the affairs and that elder was named Jorge Carlos.
Although Jorge was very old, he was in very good health and wisdom. Anyone who tried to harm him or conspired to take over his estate was severely punished by him.
At that moment, Alice was puzzled and asked her colleague why there was only one old man managing the affairs of this family. Did Jorge have no children? Or did he not trust his children?
The colleague told her that Jorge had a couple of daughters.
But then the two sisters seem to have had a conflict with their father, so the two daughters left home together, leaving only their father still in country A.
His colleague then lamented that some people are born with a high standard of living, but treat money and power like dirt. But others are not so well endowed and can only keep running and outdoing others on the road of life.
Alice’s quiet heart fluttered as she listened to the stories.
What could have caused both daughters to abandon an elderly father and all the family’s possessions?
At the time, Alice felt alienated from these stories, but now?
Kennedy had a relationship with the Carlos family.
And it was Raquel Sanchez and Rosa Sanchez the sisters mentioned.
It was all so unbelievable.
Alice’s insides churned and the information in her hands squished as Zain, beside her, watched the scene without speaking.
Megan opened her lips to say something to Alice, when Alice suddenly opened the car door and ran into the building.
It was then that the duo noticed a man coming out of the building. That man had a familiar face, had nice eyebrows and an extraordinary temperament, it was none other than Kennedy!
It turned out that Alice had seen him and that was why she had suddenly run out.
Zain and Megan looked at each other and quickly got out of the car as well.
At the first sight of Kennedy, Alice forgot everything and ran straight towards him, but she was slower than Zain. When she was already very close to Kennedy, a hand suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
-Ah,” Alice cried out, trying to resist.
-Instead, Zain pulled her back and Alice tried to free herself and said, “Brother, let me go, let me go.
Zain frowned, without releasing her, and admonished her coldly, -Now he doesn’t know you, even if you go with him.
-I don’t believe you, how can he not know me, brother, let me go, I’m going to ask him.
Seeing that he did not let go, Alice was relentless and lowered her head to bite Zain on the arm.
Zain did not expect it from Alice and the sudden pain made him let go and Alice took the opportunity to run towards Kennedy.
She ran towards Kennedy with all her might and was still panting when Alice stepped in front of Kennedy.
Kennedy stopped in her tracks.
Looking at the cloaked, pale, slightly red-eyed woman in front of him, Kennedy raised his eyebrows.
Was this the same woman who had been trying to haunt him all this time?
The next second, he withdrew his own gaze and stepped back, circling Alice.
Alice froze for five seconds before she reacted to what had happened, her insides filled with sadness, but she came back after him and stopped in front of Kennedy.
Kennedy felt strange and annoyed, -What do you want from me?
Alice’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Kennedy frowned hard, an impatient expression on his face, did he really not know Alice anymore?
No!
Alice wasn’t buying it.
All those promises Kennedy had whispered in her ear seemed like yesterday. She and Jack looked forward to his return every day.
Every night, Kennedy had entered her dreams to go out with her, to speak to her with touching words of love.
But why was Kennedy now so cold in front of her?
-Alice’s voice trembled as she asked this question, only she knew the pain she was suffering inside.
The question seemed to amuse Kennedy and her smile was a little mocking.
-Excuse me, miss, do I have to meet you?
With that said, Kennedy unconsciously raised her hand, picking up a soft lock of Alice’s hair and twisting it gently in her hand, her eyes rested on her pale lips as she spoke casually, -If you want to accost me, then find a suitable reason. Are you purposely trying to get my attention by treating me in such a cocky manner?
Hearing Kennedy’s words and attitude made Alice even more annoyed.
And now Kennedy was still playing with her hair, her face was full of care, Alice didn’t know how to explain anymore, without even thinking, she just grabbed her hand, -Stop, please come back to me.
At first, Kennedy found this woman’s method of approach strange.
All the other women who approached him were eager to show off their best features.
But this woman wore only the plainest clothes, no makeup, and even her hair was in disarray.
It didn’t fit her aesthetic at all.
Kennedy froze for a moment when Alice took his hand, and he felt as if a numbing touch had gone through the two holding hands and into his heart.
As if he had a housekeeping problem, Kennedy withdrew his hand as if it had been electrocuted and took a step back, looking disgustedly at the woman in front of him.
The disgust in Kennedy’s eyes was extraordinarily evident, which saddened Alice even more.
-Don’t do that.
Tears were already gathering in Alice’s eyes, but she held them open, forcing them not to come out. But it seemed that if she blinked, those tears would fall to the floor like pearls.
-I’ve been waiting for you all these days, do you know how long we’ve been looking for you? Come on, back home now.
-Hurry! Mr. Kennedy is being bothered by a woman again, go and take that woman away.
I don’t know who shouted, but Alice was suddenly grabbed by two tall bodyguards, she panicked a little and looked up at Kennedy.
-Help me, help me!
Alice’s voice was like the wail of a small beast, crying out to him for help with desperate eyes.
Seeing this scene, Kennedy’s mood became a little annoyed.
