Ranaway From Wedding, Fell into Tycoon's Love Trap-Chapter 942: I’m Worried You’ll Run Off With Another Man
After Alice Turner hung up Sophia Wood’s call, she immediately dialed Benjamin Shaw. Before she could say anything after connecting, Benjamin’s dissatisfied voice drilled into her ear, "Which man were you just talking to on the phone?"
Benjamin started speaking rashly without any distinction, and Alice’s eyebrows instantly knit together with anger. Just as she was about to retort, she swallowed her words, and what she said next completely changed, "You called to talk about the divorce, right? I was just about to call you about that too. Are you free tomorrow morning?"
Now wasn’t the time to argue with him; she needed to endure it if she could. The key was to divorce him smoothly.
She absolutely couldn’t act on impulse; that would ruin things.
"I’m not free tomorrow."
"What about the day after tomorrow?"
"I’m not free the day after tomorrow either."
"Then when are you free?"
"I’m not free these days."
Hearing Benjamin say he wasn’t free these days, Alice suddenly panicked, "Then why are you calling me now?"
Are you teasing me? she added in her heart.
"I’m calling you now because I was ordered by my mom. She wants us to go home for dinner tonight, and I agreed." Benjamin explained very clearly and in detail.
Alice really wanted to refuse, but since she still needed to discuss the divorce with the person on the other end of the line, she reluctantly agreed, "Got it. The usual way, wait for me at the door tonight."
Every time they went home for dinner, they always arranged to meet at the door and only went in together after both of them arrived.
"Today I’ll wait for you downstairs at your company."
As soon as Benjamin said that, Alice’s eyes widened in surprise. Was there something wrong with her hearing, or did he speak too fast and make a mistake?
This was completely out of character for him. As much as she was surprised, she was filled with doubt, "What do you mean? Are you worried I’ll be late? Or stand you up? You don’t have to worry about either; I promise to meet you at the door on time."
Did he take the wrong medicine today? Why was he acting so abnormally?
He usually didn’t even want to see her, yet he wanted to pick her up at the office today. What was he up to?
"I’m worried you’ll run off with another man." Benjamin completely ignored Alice’s surprise and doubt and lightly added another sentence.
Was this man calling just to piss her off?
Alice rolled her eyes at the floor, taking a deep breath. After calming the urge to swear at the man on the other end, she said, "Since I agreed to go back for dinner with you tonight, I won’t be making other plans."
Run off with another man, really, he thought she was that kind of casual woman. She knew he misunderstood her as that kind of woman, but she had no intention of explaining.
Let him keep misunderstanding; she thought it was fine that way.
"You better stick to what you said."
After hearing Benjamin’s words, Alice couldn’t help wanting to retort, but before she could open her mouth, she heard the beeping sound.
She pulled the phone away from her ear and looked at it, realizing he had already hung up.
What a person!
Fuming, Alice threw the phone onto the desk. At that moment, she had completely lost the mood to look at the reports, her mind a chaotic mess caused by the two people just now.
