Jensen was startled. He had always been cautious, but he did not expect Queenie to have heard their conversation. It was not that he had anything to be afraid of. The only thing he was afraid of was that Alice would be hurt.
As expected, Alice was infuriated after hearing what Queenie said. She said bluntly, "Yes, I am Grace's younger sister, Alice Smith."
"It's understandable that you're defending your sister, but isn't it too much for you to defame Jodie like this?" Queenie retorted, "What's wrong with her risking her life to protect her love?"
Alice's face darkened as she asked, "She can do anything for love, by hook or by crook."
"You are also willing to do anything for your sister, aren't you?" Queenie's face was looking very pale and she asked in a slightly flustered manner, "Did your sister ask you to come? Aren’t you unscrupulous too that you said these hurtful words the way you did?"
