Lolita suddenly thought of something and blushed more, cautiously asking her, -Could it be…?
However, before he could say the rest of the sentence, Alice interrupted him with a loud throat clearing.
-It was an accident, what’s all this nonsense?
Alice denied quietly, but her ears were flushed, and she picked up her fork and admonished,
-Hurry up and eat, don’t think about all that nonsense.
Lolita smiled at him and nodded.
After a while, she suddenly looked up and said,
-We’ve known each other for so long, but I still don’t have your Whatsapp number, why don’t we both add one to each other?
Alice thought this girl was quite helpless abroad, so she added her to her Whatsapp.
The phone vibrated and Alice pulled it out and looked at it; it was a text message from Megan saying she was now available and asking her to get in touch when she had time.
Alice timed it carefully, she thought Megan must have just woken up at that time, so she ate much faster herself.
-Why are you eating so fast all of a sudden, do you have something to do? -Lolita was a little surprised.
-Yes,” Alice replied, and she tucked into a few random bites of rice, then took a few more sips of soup.
-Slow down,” Lolita felt scared to see her eat like that.
If she were normal, Alice wouldn’t be like this , but the matter she had to talk to Megan about now was important and the two of them didn’t know how long they were going to be talking, besides, she couldn’t make people wait.
Alice swallowed the soup hurriedly in her mouth, then said to Lolita,
-I’m done now, I have things to do, take your time.
She picked up the dishes and took the elevator to the first floor.
Calling Megan in company is not a very wise choice, because there are a lot of people here, and it would be bad if someone overheard their conversation.
So Alice found a nearby particularly quiet-looking coffee shop and ordered a coffee, then put on her headset and called Megan.
-Alice, are you free yet?
-I think so,” Alice looked around for a moment and then whispered, “It’s not time for work yet.
-That’s good, what are your questions?
-Well,” Alice showed all her inner doubts to Megan, and then spoke in a heavy tone. Actually, at first I had a vague suspicion in my mind, but I didn’t think deeply in that direction, I just thought it shouldn’t be possible, but now I think things must be more complicated than we thought.
When he finished speaking, Megan on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time.
-You’re right, I was actually thinking about this when our men went out looking for him, because we never heard from Kennedy, and if our men hadn’t seen him occasionally, we probably wouldn’t have known of Kennedy’s whereabouts until now.
At these words Alice’s brow furrowed further, and she felt even more anxious about what to do.
-But you’re close to Mr. Kennedy now, aren’t you? Besides, you’ve already had intimate contact, so why don’t you find an excuse to take him to the hospital to examine?
-I’m still concerned about a change, Megan, and I want you to put me in touch with someone.
-Who?
-Kennedy’s aunt Raquel.
Mrs. Raquel in S-town?
-Yes.
Raquel was invited to the wedding at the time, but when she heard that the two were having the wedding abroad, she refused, saying she was too old to travel.
Only when Kennedy said he would hold a hometown wedding did Raquel perk up and said she would wait for them.
But later, after the plane crash, he did not know what happened to Raquel.
Specifically, her brother Zain should have taken care of everything for her.
Since Raquel was Jorge’s daughter, so there is no choice but to look for Raquel and ask her for information.
Why on earth would Kennedy’s grandfather do this?
-Alice, I know what you said, I will contact Mrs. Raquel as soon as I can. But after I contact her…
-Be honest and tell her everything that’s happened recently.
-Okay, I got it.
-Thank you, not only do you have to help my brother for the company, but you also have to help me….. I really can’t thank you enough.
-Then have your brother raise my salary,” Megan smiled.
Alice couldn’t help but laugh at that.
-Okay, I’ll tell him later.
The two hung up after some more small talk.
With peace restored to her ears, Alice sat frozen in her seat looking out the window at the pedestrians coming and going.
It would be Christmas Eve before long, wouldn’t it?
It wasn’t that she hadn’t spent the holiday abroad, but this time she didn’t have her friends and family by her side.
“Will I get a chance to take Kennedy with me this year?”
During the time she sat in the restaurant, Alice searched her own social network and saw that Yanis had updated many more photos of Jack, and scrolled through them one by one without noticing.
When the time came, Alice went back to work and resumed her tasks.
***
In the Espinar family.
Bang!
Bang Bang Bang!!!!
The sound of things hitting the floor kept coming out of the room, a group of maids stood at the door and did not dare to enter, they could only keep talking and coaxing, -Miss, don’t be angry, all these are that you usually like, they have been collected for a long time, why…?
Before she could finish her sentence, a crystal ornament crashed against her head. The maiden was so startled that she dodged to the side, while the one behind her, who didn’t react so quickly, was out of luck.
-Wow, she’s bleeding – the people next to her tried to go over and pick her up, but Zoe kept breaking things around the room and everyone was afraid they would get hit.
The girl, whose face was bleeding from the blow, could only duck her head and shield her face in her lap as she watched another glass pendulum go by.
-Get out of the way!!!!!
-Mia!
Bang!
In a flash, a figure appeared just in time to block the girl’s path and then kicked the ornament away.
Bang!
The glass hit the wall and shattered directly into pieces that fell to the floor.
-Sir… -shouted the crowd to Ruben as if he was a savior.
