Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 443 Go Home

The bruises on Alice's face looked more obvious at closer look. Thompson was a little concerned about her. If she did not take a firm stand, she would definitely expose him sooner or later.

After all, she knew too much about his plan and what he had done before. Now, Thompson regretted being so careless to trust a woman he had just known a few months ago.

"I've never once thought of divorcing Jonathan. I knew from the start that once I chose this path, there was no turning back. Funny thing is, I didn't even flinch when this happened to me." Alice looked surprisingly calm. Even though her face was bruised and wounded, she neither said nor did anything that Jonathan would disapprove.

"Well..." Thompson was hesitant to say something at first. 'Is Alice really this stubborn?'

"What if Jonathan hit you again?" he asked with concern. He was sincerely worried about her. Even though he and Alice were only taking advantage of each other, they still had feelings after getting along for a long time.

Besides, any man would definitely feel sorry for a woman if she showed up lonely and bruised.

"I don't know. But, if he dares to do this to me again, I won't spare him."

Alice spoke in a timid manner. Thompson shuddered as he heard her response.

A beast, when cornered, will do something unimaginable out of desperation. For a long time, Alice loathed Jacob because she could not forgive him for breaking up with her. She even wanted to kill him back then.

If Jonathan pushed Alice to her brink, she would most probably do something outrageous. At the thought of it, Thompson cautiously reached out for his glass.

"Let's go." Alice could not wait to get out of this place. She could not let Jacob see her so pathetic and helpless.

Even if Jacob was indeed concerned about her, she still did not want him to look at her with pity. Besides, she still had dignity, no matter how much she had loved him. At that moment, she realized that sometimes, she would be willing to do anything in the name of love.

All Alice wanted right now was to calm her own heart. Because she wanted to win back Jacob's love before, she used to be impetuous and stubborn. She believed that nobody would hurt her as long as she seemed strong and fearless.

It was not until now that she realized that that belief only caused more harm. That was because people thought that a fierce woman like her could put up with everything thrown at her.
