Chapter 307 Aliceâs eyes reddened with anger; he was twisting things around!
Seeing her tears, Jack softened. âThatâs not what I meant. I didnât say you cheated. But sheâd been too close to that guy. He didnât like her being so close to other men.
Alice blinked back her and pulled Jackâs hand away. Let him Jack obediently released Wang Yang. He whispered, âWhatâs wrong?â
âNothing.â Alice ignored him, handing her towel to Wang Yang âRinse your face with cold water to stop the bleeding.â
Jack snatched the towel.âUse mine.â He handed over his towel.
Wang Yang didnât take it. Are you okay alone?â
âIâm fine. Iâm sorry sorry about that,â Alice said, surprised surprised Jack had hit him.
Wang Yang glanced at Jack and left.
Alice looked at Jackâs towel and reached for it.âGive me that.â
Jack didnât let go. He stood before her, his tone stiff.âI saw you being too close to another man; I misunderstood.â Sheâd even given him âherâ towel.
Alice retorted, âAnd you?â
Jack mumbled, âI never spar with women.â
âThatâs not what I asked. You wanted to talk. Okay, letâs hear it.â Alice wanted his expression Jack licked his lips.âI didnât reply to your messages because my grandmother was in the hospital, and there was an emergency at work. I didnât think your messages were urgent; I planned to reply later.â He hadnât expected her to be so angry.
Alice remained calm. Thatâs it?â
âYes. If your messages had been urgent, I would have replied immediately.â Jack looked at her earnestly, almost swearing an oath.
But Aliceâs gaze was cold, making Jack uneasy. He grabbed her hand.âWhat else did I do wrong? Tell me.â He couldnât understand women sometimes.
But Alice pulled her hand away.
Jack was flustered.âAlice, Iâll reply instantly next time.â
âJack, Iâm asking one last time. Is that all? Anything else to say?â
Jack hesitated; he wanted to reveal his identity, but Alice was still angry. If he told her, she might break up with him.
He looked at Alice cautiously.âCan I tell you after Iâve appeased you?â He hadnât even started appeasing her. yet. If Alice found out heâd hidden his identity, it would be over.
âIf you donât want to say it, never say it.â Alice pulled away, leaving the boxing area. âAlice, wait,â Jack followed, pleading.âLetâs go to Pear Garden for dinner. Or is there anywhere. you want to go...â
âStop it. Are you annoying me?â Alice glanced at him, then at Wang Yang, who was sitting on a chair. âAre you okay? Still bleeding?â
âMuch better.â Seeing Jack, he said, âGoing back to school?â
âYes. Dinner at the cafeteria? Iâm really sorry.â
âNo problem.â Wang Yang saw Alice didnât want to interact with Jack and stood.âLetâs go before. the cafeteria closes.â
Alice was about to leave when Jack grabbed her.âWe havenât finished talking.â He didnât want her to leave. He had a a bad bad feeling; if she left, their relationship would end.
Alice frowned.âLet go.â
Jack was stubborn.âNo.â
Wang Yang intervened.âSir, she doesnât want you bothering her. Have some selfârespect.â Jackâs gaze was icy.âStay away from her.â He picked Alice up and carried her towards the boxing arca.
Wang Yang tried to help but was stopped by the gym owner.
r.â[What are you doing?]â
â[I want to help.]â
â[Donât interfere! Heâs not an ordinary person. He bought this gym for Alice to box.]â Wang Yang was stunned.
â[Youâre the owner?]â
â[Iâm the nominal owner. Theyâre close; theyâre just arguing. Donât interfere.]â The owner stopped him. Couples fight and make up; a third party changes everything.
Wang Yang watched them, his expression dimming.
Alice was carried back to the boxing area and placed on the platform. She glared at him.âAre crazy?â

âWhy should I?â Alice was angry, her eyes red.âYou hit someone; what right do you have to threaten him?â
Jackâs lips thinned.â[I was jealous. Is that wrong?]â
Jealous? Alice felt bitter; he was saying he was jealous? She sneered.âWhat right do you have to accuse me?â
â[Iâm your boyfriend. Canât I be jealous?]â Jack was angry.â[I can spar anyone else.]â
âI wonât spar with you anymore. Iâm not your puppet.â
with you; you donât need Jackâs temples throbbed. He put his hands on her shoulders, his voice hoarse.â[Iâm not controlling you. If I were close to another woman, wouldnât you be angry?]â
âSo you know,â Alice said seriously. âBesides your grandmother, who were you with that night?â
[I was at the hospital. Who else?] Jackâs patience was wearing thin.â[Alice, do you like that guy? Are you ignoring me because of him?]â
âYouâre twisting things! You were with another woman that night! How long are you going to lie?â Alice burst into tears.
