Alice didn’t say anything else, just nodded unconsciously.
Then she watched Kennedy’s car drive off with an indescribable sense of loss.
It wasn’t that she blamed him for missing the appointment; after all, everyone had an emergency.
But she had been looking forward to the day, imagining what she would do when she got back, and trying to see if they could deepen their relationship tonight, and see how he would react.
Now that everything had failed. And she felt a great sense of disappointment.
Alice sighed, fixed her hair and continued on her way to the subway station.
“Alas, one can’t get used to too many things, or one will be easily disappointed.” Alice thought.
She walked slowly, as if she was taking a stroll. She didn’t know how long she had been walking, suddenly Alice felt as if a car had been following her.
At first she thought she was mistaken, but after walking for a while she realized that that car was still following her slowly.
Frowning, she pulled out her phone and turned on the camera to look behind her.
The window rolled down. A familiar person leaned out and waved at her.
Alice was speechless.
“Ruben, was that him again, why is he following me?”
Thinking about it, Alice stopped and looked at him.
Ruben quickly approached her and raised his eyebrows, -Want to come up?
Compared to facing Kennedy, Alice was expressionless when facing Ruben. And she looked at him with indifferent eyes.
-Oh, we’ve known each other for a long time. Why do you always seem to hate me? I don’t remember doing anything wrong to you, do I? And do you know what I think when you look at me like that?
Alice didn’t answer.
-You seem to look at your ex-boyfriend,” Ruben said, smiling.
Alice immediately turned around and left.
Seeing this, Ruben rushed to open the car door and chased after her.
Looking at Ruben, who had stopped in his tracks several times, Alice really didn’t have a good feeling about him. Although he had saved her, to her, he was just a strange man.
Besides, her sister had tried to seduce Kennedy.
-What do you want?
-Nothing, I’m just curious to meet you here.
At that moment, Alice laughed coldly.
-Meet me? Don’t you always follow me around?
Ruben became serious, -It seems you can guess the purpose of my visit today.
“So what if I guessed?” thinking and looking at Ruben, Alice took a deep breath and said, -What is it? Tell me.
-You can’t park here, you should know that,” Ruben smiled, then looked at his car. Get in first and we’ll find a place to sit and talk, okay?
Alice was silent for a while.
-I’m sorry, it’s getting late and I have to take the subway, I’m afraid I can’t…..
-Don’t you want to know more about Kennedy Moore? -Ruben interrupted her with a quick sentence. Besides, if you can’t get on the subway later, I can take you back.
Alice said nothing.
In the end, Alice got into Ruben’s car quietly. He took her to a restaurant and reserved a small, exquisite private room. He said to Alice as he ordered, -Let’s have dinner here, this restaurant is good.
Alice was not looking forward to dining with him. Normally she didn’t like to eat with strangers, plus she had plenty of ingredients at home.
Thinking about this, Alice bit her lips and did not respond to his words.
Ruben handed her the menu, -What would you like to eat?
The waitress was also waiting next door.
Alice closed the menu and handed it to the waitress, smiling she said, -Hello, I want a glass of warm water.
-Hey… -The waitress took the menu out of her hand and looked at her a little embarrassed, -Madam, we don’t have….
Ruben, who was sitting on the other side of the table, snapped his fingers and said, -Do what she says.
-Well, please wait a moment.
She soon poured him a glass of warm water. Ruben watched her very carefully, shaking his head and laughing, -You look like you’re raring to go. And are you sure you want to sit here and then watch me eat?
Very nonchalantly, Alice lifted her glass and took a sip of lukewarm water. -I don’t think meals are served quickly here. I’ve seen many people who were still waiting for their food, when I was downstairs a while ago. You probably have to wait more than fifteen minutes. So you can say all the things clearly in those fifteen minutes.
Having said that, Alice put down her glass and looked at Ruben.
-Let’s start.
-So serious? -Ruben scoffed at her, “I feel a little uncomfortable with such seriousness.
-Sir, if you know what respect is, you should stop teasing me and talk to me seriously. After all, you’re the one who asked me to come, right?
-Okay.
Ruben saw that she was really anxious and didn’t want to tease her anymore. So she could only raise her eyebrows and return to her normal state.
In fact, she couldn’t help it. For the first time in his life, he had met this kind of fierce girl, and he always couldn’t help but tease her, no offense.
-Before we talk, I have a few questions to ask you, why are you here?
-These questions… I thought I should have looked into them.
Alice said and thought, “Otherwise, how are you so sure about talking to me about Kennedy’s stuff.”
-Effectively, I have researched everything about you, and about Kennedy Moore. But I still want to confirm it with you personally. Is it true that Kennedy Moore… has lost his memory?
At that moment, when he received this news, Ruben could not believe it. Although he had met Kennedy Moore beforehand, he never thought that he would lose his memory and not remember himself.
Good thing he didn’t recognize himself, judging by what Alice had done recently, it seemed he didn’t even recognize Alice anymore.
-Whether he really has lost his memory or not, you’ll know if you investigate, no need to ask me. If that’s what you’re asking today, then I can’t answer you. You know my current situation, don’t you?
-Well, then, do you know that everything else between you and Kennedy has been erased, except in the country?
Hearing this, Alice frowned, “What do you mean?
She caught herself thinking it over, “The news was erased from everywhere except in the country?”
Ruben smiled, -Including that big wedding. Because the groom didn’t show up at the wedding, and at that time, it was only reported by the foreign media. But… now he doesn’t have any news about that wedding.
Having said that, Ruben looked at Alice silently for a while, trying to see her reaction.
