When Alice returned to the apartment, she felt suffocated.
She felt that when she saw Candace, the grievances and suffering that she had stored in her heart over the years had surged out at once.
She didn't want to talk; she just wanted to cry.
However, what was the use of crying?
Grace had told her that crying was useless. It would only make her look more cowardly, and it would not be of any help.
Alice took a deep breath and went to the bathroom to wash her hands first. Then, she washed up without saying a word.
Jensen noticed she was in a bad mood, and understood that she had been hurt by Candace.
Although she didn't say anything, he knew that she was upset.
She took a shower in the bathroom. After that, she wrapped herself in a bathrobe and came out. Then, she went into the dressing room to look for a change of clothes without sparing Jensen a glance.
As he watched her walk over, he felt his heart break.
He said, "Alice, I'll take a shower first. Let's talk after that."
