Chapter 307
Alice’s eyes reddened with anger; he was twisting things around!
Seeing her tears, Jack softened. “That’s not what I meant. I didn’t say you cheated. But she’d been too close to that guy. He didn’t like her being so close to other men.
Alice blinked back her

Jack obediently released Wang Yang. He whispered, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” Alice ignored him, handing her towel to Wang Yang “Rinse your face with cold water to stop the bleeding.”
Jack snatched the towel.“Use mine.” He handed over his towel.
Wang Yang didn’t take it. Are you okay alone?”
“I’m fine. I’m sorry
sorry about that,” Alice said, surprised
surprised Jack had hit him.
Wang Yang glanced at Jack and left.
Alice looked at Jack’s towel and reached for it.“Give me that.”
Jack didn’t let go. He stood before her, his tone stiff.“I saw you being too close to another man; I misunderstood.” She’d even given him “her” towel.
Alice retorted, “And you?”
Jack mumbled, “I never spar with women.”
“That’s not what I asked. You wanted to talk. Okay, let’s hear it.” Alice wanted his expression Jack licked his lips.“I didn’t reply to your messages because my grandmother was in the hospital, and there was an emergency at work. I didn’t think your messages were urgent; I planned to reply later.‘ He hadn’t expected her to be so angry.
Alice remained calm. That’s it?”
“Yes. If your messages had been urgent, I would have replied immediately.” Jack looked at her earnestly, almost swearing an oath.
But Alice’s gaze was cold, making Jack uneasy. He grabbed her hand.“What else did I do wrong? Tell me.” He couldn’t understand women sometimes.
But Alice pulled her hand away.
Jack was flustered.“Alice, I’ll reply instantly next time.”
“Jack, I’m asking one last time. Is that all? Anything else to say?”
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.“Can I tell you after I’ve appeased you?” He hadn’t even started appeasing her. yet. If Alice found out he’d hidden his identity, it would be over.
“If
you don’t want to say it, never say it.” Alice pulled away, leaving the boxing area. “Alice, wait,” Jack followed, pleading.“Let’s go to Pear Garden for dinner. Or is there anywhere. you want to go…”
“Stop it. Are you annoying me?” Alice glanced at him, then at Wang Yang, who was sitting on a
chair. “Are you okay? Still bleeding?”
“Much better.” Seeing Jack, he said, “Going back to school?”
“Yes. Dinner at the cafeteria? I’m really sorry.”
“No problem.” Wang Yang saw Alice didn’t want to interact with Jack and stood.“Let’s go before. the cafeteria closes.”
Alice was about to leave when Jack grabbed her.“We haven’t finished talking.” He didn’t want her to leave. He had a

bad feeling; if she left, their relationship would end.
Alice frowned.“Let go.”
Jack was stubborn.“No.”
Wang Yang intervened.“Sir, she doesn’t want you bothering her. Have some self–respect.” Jack’s gaze was icy.“Stay away from her.” He picked Alice up and carried her towards the boxing
arca.
Wang Yang tried to help but was stopped by the gym owner.
r.“[What are you doing?]”
“[I want to help.]”
“[Don’t interfere! He’s not an ordinary person. He bought this gym for Alice to box.]” Wang Yang
was stunned.
“[You’re the owner?]”
“[I’m the nominal owner. They’re close; they’re just arguing. Don’t interfere.]” 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.“Are crazy?”

“Yes, I am.” Jack’s eyes were red; his gaze locked on Alice. I’ve explained. Tell me why you’re.
angry.
“Why should I?” Alice was angry, her eyes red.“You hit someone; what right do you have to threaten him?”
Jack’s lips thinned.“[I was jealous. Is that wrong?]”
Jealous? Alice felt bitter; he was saying he was jealous? She sneered.“What right do you have to accuse me?”
“[I’m your boyfriend. Can’t I be jealous?]” Jack was angry.“[I can spar anyone else.]”
“I won’t spar with you anymore. I’m not your puppet.”

Jack’s temples throbbed. He put his hands on her shoulders, his voice hoarse.“[I’m not controlling you. If I were close to another woman, wouldn’t you be angry?]”
“So you know,” Alice said seriously. “Besides your grandmother, who were you with that night?”
[I was at the hospital. Who else?] Jack’s patience was wearing thin.“[Alice, do you like that guy? Are you ignoring me because of him?]”
“You’re twisting things! You were with another woman that night! How long are you going to lie?” Alice burst into tears.
