-The Yanis thing? -Kennedy frowned slightly and squeezed Alice’s hand a little tighter, he questioned somewhat angrily,
-Didn’t I tell you to butt out? Do you want to be a matchmaker?
Inexplicably, Kennedy remembered his secretary, Nathan, who had been helping him with the company all these days, and wondered if Nathan had taken the opportunity to get Yanis.
-No, nothing like that, I just want to talk to him about her.
-Then let it go,” Kennedy pursed his lips before adding. I told you the other day that if your brother was interested in her, he would act on his own without outside help.
-But…
-Zain always takes what you say to heart, and if you change his mind in choosing his mate, will you be able to take full responsibility?
Alice stared at Kennedy, asking seriously,
-You’re telling me that to help your secretary, aren’t you?
-How?
-Nathan likes Yanis too? Is that why you don’t want me to be this matchmaker?
At her suspicion, Kennedy instantly raised her eyebrows; at first he had stopped her because he didn’t want her, a pregnant woman, to worry all day long about other people’s relationships; after all, everyone had their own destiny. And there was a reason for everything, so it was not good for her to meddle.
It had not occurred to her to help Nathan either, because she had already done that once when she was abroad and had found out that Yanis was not interested in Nathan. Besides, Kennedy was very busy and could not attend to anyone but Alice.
Kennedy tapped Alice’s forehead and answered warmly,
-What are you thinking about? This has nothing to do with Nathan.
-Then why are you stopping me?
Kennedy wrapped her scarf around her to keep her from freezing and asked her seriously,
-Did we spend a lot of time together after we came back from abroad?
-How? -Alice was puzzled by his question, “What do you mean?
-Answer my question first.
Alice thought carefully, and the answer was in the negative. The two of them were busy with their own things, and they really didn’t have much time to enjoy each other together, except in the evenings….
Thinking about it, she coughed slightly, and asked,
-No, what about it?
-We have only very little time left to be alone together now, do you still want to spend it on other people’s business?”-Kennedy moved closer as he spoke, his thin lips almost on her forehead, and his warm, soft lips moved as he spoke.
It took Alice a while to understand his intentions, still she wanted to explain further, saying,
-But…
-When Jack comes back, there will be even less time alone like this.
-Stop it! I’ll stop,” Alice interrupted him. One thing had to be admitted: Kennedy’s words had successfully convinced her that she should stay out of Yanis’ business.
Finally, Alice said, -I know what I have to do, but I’ve asked my brother to wait for me in the study, so I have to go upstairs and talk to him somehow before I leave.
-Good girl,” Kennedy pinched her cheek. You have five minutes and I’ll wait for you outside.
-Okay.
So Kennedy let her go and went to wait for her outside, and Alice turned toward the studio. On the way to the study, Alice kept thinking about what she should say next, aiming to avoid awkwardness. Alice had a bit of a headache from thinking so much, but apart from the Yanis matter, she couldn’t think of anything important to say at the moment.
Before she could think of a topic, she reached her destination. He hesitated for quite a while knocking on the door, and then he heard ‘Come in’. He pushed the door and saw Zain sitting at his desk, working.
-Zain, don’t work so hard. Rest well. Health is the real gold,” she said worriedly.
-He said the pot calling the kettle black,” Zain laughed and said, “Don’t you remember the person who works a lot is you, includso you haven’t rested during your pregnancy.
Alice didn’t expect him to say that, and coughed lightly, laughing awkwardly.
-Do you have something important to tell me? -asked Zain as he tapped his fingertips on the table.
He hadn’t expected to get to the point so soon, and Alice definitely couldn’t tell him about Yanis. As she was struggling to organize her words that might prove very valuable to tell him, she suddenly came up with a good idea: talk about Kennedy’s latest situation.
After learning that Kennedy was a bit unwell and acting a bit strange, Zain immediately took it very seriously, advising,
-If that’s the case, I suggest you find a specialist to consult.
-I was thinking the same thing, but… it doesn’t show much.
-This matter may be more serious than it seems, if you had recovered right away without any sequelae you would be fine, but as it is now, it is advisable to take a treatment. Alice, you are pregnant now, it is not right for you to worry about these things, let me talk to him later.
-Really? -Alice asked.
She considered it again and thought it would work out for the best. Maybe Kennedy wouldn’t have so many qualms about talking to his brother. In the end Alice nodded and said,
-Well, I leave it to you, my brother. But you must take care of yourself and put the work aside. Besides, at your age, you’re really not going to…..
Zain knew what she was going to say next, and immediately interrupted her with a smile on his face, saying,
-Your brother is already old, it’s better that he doesn’t make other girls suffer because of me. Besides, love is not so important to me anymore.
