Hearing this, Zoe immediately became shy, holding up the fruit bowl and said, -Kennedy, do you eat some?
She walked over to him. The scent of perfume floated up, lingered beside her, and this sweet smell reminded her of another woman’s body odor.
His little helper…
He held her in his arms that day, and when he returned home, he took off his sweater and could smell her faint body fragrance. It didn’t look like perfume, but smelled like shower gel.
Light but not strong, , fragrant but not vulgar.
-Kennedy?
Zoe was calling him again, and turning her eyes, Kennedy saw her face very close to him. She wore very heavy makeup and the color of her lipstick was blood red, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Kennedy frowned calmly looking away and stood up.
-You don’t have to do this for me anymore,” he said lightly.
At the sound, the smile on Zoe’s lips froze, “Why? Your body needs more nourishment now. She did it for your sake.
Anthony next door naturally understood Kennedy’s refusal and indifference. The place where his heart was drowning was immediately dredged. He looked at Kennedy with satisfaction, and then said for him, -You , very worthy miss of the Espinar family, it is really inappropriate to condescend doing this kind of thing for a man, Miss Zoe, do I think it is better to follow your words by letting the servants do these things?
Zoe was a little reluctant, looking at Kennedy’s profile, and said, -I know these things are done by servants, but… I want to do it for Kennedy. Besides, I don’t feel bad at all.
Anthony smiled wickedly and said, -But I am aggrieved by the servants. If you go to Kennedy’s house every day to do these things, what will the servants do? Emmm, you know they are servant’s jobs but you rush to do. Isn’t this an obvious attempt to steal their jobs?
She bit her lower lip and looked at Anthony bitterly, but he shrugged indifferently.
Anyway, this woman didn’t like him at all, and he wasn’t that kind of person to fawn over, so naturally he could say anything he wanted.
Besides, at present for Jorge, his position was firmly on his sister-in-law’s side!
-I have something to do, Jorge, please take care of Grandpa,” Kennedy left a word and then went out.
Zoe looked anxious and wanted to follow him.
-Kennedy!
Seeing him, Anthony hurried to reach out his hand and stopped her, -Don’t chase him, didn’t you hear that Kennedy said he had something to do? It’s no use chasing him.
Anthony didn’t know why he was so happy to see Zoe he was speechless.
Coming back to her senses, Zoe looked bitterly at Anthony in front of her.
-Anthony, have I offended you? Why are you treating me like this?” her voice was no longer soft, her expression was no longer cute and obedient, her face and eyes looked at Anthony fiercely.
Seeing her like this, Anthony reacted.
Now Kennedy wasn’t here, and finally she couldn’t pretend anymore.
But she had no intention of breaking down with him head-on, a beautiful boy with a good heart and very straight.
Thinking about this, George said smiling, -No, you are so beautiful, why did I treat you badly?
It was probably the compliment that she was beautiful that touched her, her eyes softened a little, -Since you don’t intend to treat me badly, what does what you just said mean, that I steal the servants job?
-Isn’t that so? You are the worthy miss of the Espinar family, and naturally they will hold it in their hands. It’s not worth your while to do this sort of thing for a man, and besides, I’m telling you the truth. You did the work of the servants. These will have nothing to do and will be fired. Well, stealing their work is like stealing their money, which is the same as killing their parents, for which you will be cursed.
This sounded harsh, Zoe looked at Anthony suspiciously.
-I didn’t mean to steal their money, I just care about Kennedy, Anthony? you’re his best friend, or… could you help me?
After speaking, Zoe flashed a friendly smile again and approached Anthony, wanting to take his hand.
Anthony’s complexion changed greatly and he took a few steps back, as if he had considered her as a pest.
-No, don’t, I can’t help you, after all, I don’t yet have the ability to control Kennedy’s mind.
The implication was that it was useless to help her, and Kennedy wouldn’t like her anyway.
This time, Zoe understood. She stood there looking at Anthony with a very ugly complexion, but she still didn’t give up and looked at him pityingly, -You really don’t want to help me? I’m serious about Kennedy. We will also become a couple in the future.
Phew.
Looking at this beautiful and charming appearance, if it hadn’t been for hearing how she belittled him in front of the servants and ridiculed him, I would have truly believed her, damn it!
He could only say that her acting skills were too good, phew.
Anthony really wanted to leave straight away, but… he thought about Kennedy asking him to take care of Zoe, he had no other remedies but to continue dealing with her.
***
On the other side, Kennedy drove straight away from Carlos’ house, but she didn’t know where she was going, only that what Anthony told her kept echoing in her mind.
When he reacted, the car had already reached the first floor of her house.
Looking at the building in front of him, Kennedy couldn’t help but knead his temple with his hands, and his thin lips were pressed tightly together like a straight line.
How did he get here?
Thinking about this question, Kennedy’s hand already unconsciously opened the car door, he couldn’t control himself and walked towards the apartment door.
It was daylight but he stood by the door for a while because he could not get in at all.
The door was locked and people who did not live here could not enter without a key.
Kennedy could only laugh at himself.
“What am I doing?
It’s just a woman, but I drive the car here without realizing it.
Okay, I better get back.”
Kennedy was ready to return to the car as if nothing had happened. However, as he turned around, he saw Alice with a shopping bag in her hand and looked at him in disbelief.
“He… why is he here?”
Looking at Kennedy standing in the doorway of his apartment, there was a moment Alice believed.
From a distance, she believed this figure was hers, but it felt impossible to think about it. How could Kennedy have come to her house and stood in the doorway?
Now when she turned around and was sure it was him, Alice became even more surprised.
-You-” Alice’s pink and white lips opened, but she could not say a word.
On the contrary it was Kennedy who approached her calmly and said in a cold voice, -You are here, take me upstairs.
