Her Second Marriage, Being Mr. Moore's New Wife

Chapter 592 Don't Want to Be a Victim

Manfred pursed thin lips, quietly looking at her, as if thinking of something.

After a while, he said softly, “It's not that I am forgetful, but that I have never cheated you. What are you

talking about?”

Alice reminded him.

“Wasn't you behind that party?” If not because of that party, how could she and Kennedy had

misunderstanding?

Although she knew that if they trusted each other, it would not be a problem.

However, how could Alice not to suspect Manfred?

After all, Reynold still wanted her to spy on Kennedy, and Manfred was there, so she couldn't believe

he was so innocent.

Manfred froze.

Like he could not believe it, he was stunned at first and then he was sad.

Finally, he lowered his eyes and began to laugh in a low, self-deprecating grin.

“So that's what you thought.”

“I always thought so.” Alice looked at him and said, “So, can we cancel our cooperation now? Whatever

your purpose is, five years ago or now, I don't want to be your victim again.”

Manfred slowly raised his head, suddenly grabbed her hand on the table. As Alice felt his palm, she

was stunned and then drew back her hand subconsciously.

But Manfred clenched her hand more tightly, staring at her without anger.

He was no longer gentle but became melancholy.

“You said I was behind the party, do you think I cause that car accident too?”

Alice was stunned when hearing that and she froze in place.

Thinking of that car accident in those days, Alice's face went pale. Her lips moved. Looking at Manfred,

she was speechless.

Of course she did not think he was responsible for that accident.

The car accident was an accident, but what happened before? Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

All of a sudden, Alice felt she went too far, after all, he was desperate to save her. If not him, she would

be badly hurt.

Thinking of that, Alice lowered her eyes.

“Sorry, I...”

“All right.” Manfred interrupted her and smiled. “You know, no matter what you do or say, I won't blame

you.”

Alice raised her head and looked at him painfully.

Because he was like this, Alice did not want to recognize him.

Because whatever she said to him, he thought it didn't matter and he would forgive her.

Alice suddenly stood up and said in a cold voice, “Don't always be like this. Why aren’t you angry about

my words? Do you think I will feel guilty because you're not angry? I am sorry you're really going to be

disappointed. I gotta go”

With that, Alice turned and walked away.

Manfred, his face slightly changed, got up and ran after her.

“Charlotte......”

“Don't call me Charlotte!”

“Alice, I'm not who you think I am. No matter what you think, I did make a mistake, and what I want to

do now is to make up for what I did to you.”

“No, it's been five years and it's been what it's been. As long as we do not meet again, I will not blame

you.”

Manfred watched her.

“What if I have to meet you?”

Alice raised her head and looked at him with some astonishment.

At this moment, the expression on the face of Manfred became serious. Alice was stunned for a

moment and she pursed her red lips.

“I have something to do, I gotta go.”

She turned directly. Manfred looked at her thin back coldly and then opened his mouth.

“Kennedy is the father, right?”

Alice stopped her pace. She stood in situ, feeling like falling ice caves.

It took her a long time to turn around.

Manfred approached her and then said in a cold voice.

“You don't want to recognize me because I saw this kid with my own eyes the other day at the

supermarket.”

Alice felt that she was about to suffocate. Her face went place and she said in a trembling voice.

“What do you want?”

“Alice, I said I mean no harm, you must believe me.”

“Then why do you bring it up?” Alice looked at him and said with a trembling voice, “You keep saying

that you mean no harm, but what you did and what you said... What do they mean?”

Manfred probably confirmed what he had suspected when he saw her frightened appearance and pale

on her face and lips. He touched the hair on Alice's cheek lovingly, and then put it behind her ear for

her. When his middle finger accidentally touched the soft skin of her ear, his hand stopped for a

moment and Alice turned away from him and stepped back to keep distance.

Manfred was upset and then said in a low voice, “Even if I did, I will not do harm to you. Kennedy

doesn't know he is the father, does he? So you're afraid I'm gonna tell him, or... You're afraid because

you're the victim of our fight, right?”

He saw through her mind.

Alice fixed her eyes on him. If he had no intention, how could he know so clearly?

“If that's what you're worried about, then I can assure you that I'll do nothing against you over my dead

body.”

Seeing her disbelief, Manfred said, “I swear, if I...”

“All right.” Alice interrupted him, closed her eyes, and said weakly, “you don't have to swear to me. I

know you will keep your words.”

The gloomy eyes of Manfred became bright, “Well, then will you meet me again?”

Reluctant, helpless, Alice sighed.

“What can I do if you talk like that?”

Manfred’s face finally had a smile, gentle as before.

“That’s a deal. We are partners and friends.”

What else could she say? She just nodded.

“Then go back and finish the coffee? There are some things about work I'd like to ask you.”

“Ok.”

Alice went back to the seats with Manfred. Two people sat down and had discussion about work. After

that, Manfred asked her situation when she was abroad.

She answered a few questions of his, and when the time was up, she was ready to say goodbye to

Manfred.

If it was a little later, Kennedy would wake up.

At this time, she would go to the supermarket to buy some things, and then go home to cook. When

Kenney was up, he could have lunch.
