Chapter 607

"Alice!"

Alice said coldly, "You shut up! Do you think I'm a fool? All of you hid the truth from me. I was so sad

and even blamed myself. I felt so sorry and guilty towards you but you clearly knew the truth already

and you were still not willing to tell me!"

"I'm sorry!" Jensen apologized.

Alice raised her voice and said, "If apologies are useful, then what use do we have for the police?"

Jensen shouted, "Alice!" He quickly stepped forward and wanted to hold her hand, but Alice shook him

away and repelled his touch.

Jensen was startled. He seemed to feel that the atmosphere had returned to the time when they first

met.

She was confronting him with daggers, her whole body covered with thorns.

He looked at Alice in surprise, with self-blame and apology in his eyes.

Alice's gaze was cold as she looked at him.

After seeing his awkward and apologetic eyes, Alice pursed her lips then turned her face away and

walked into the house.

This kind of thing was not something glorious so it wasn't something that should be talked about at the

door.

She couldn't explain how she felt. When she knew that the man who would give her the deepest hurt

was Jensen, her heart ached.

Jensen, who doted on her and pitied her so much, was actually that demon.

The man who had hurt her was a demon.

The harm he brought to her at that time had caused her to have nightmares consecutively for six years.

She had been self-abased for six years and lacked confidence. She did not dare to have a boyfriend

and rejected men. She was afraid that she would not be able to accept it.

What's more, she was afraid that her boyfriend couldn't accept her, because she had been hurt to that

extent by an unknown person.

However, she didn't expect that her current boyfriend would be that person.

She had a feeling of being deceived. She was very hurt and felt very uncomfortable.

Now, she didn't even know what kind of feelings she had to put up in order to face Jensen. As soon as

she saw him, she would think of that night. No matter how she begged for mercy, he would not let her

go. Finally, he covered her mouth and kept forcing himself on her over and over again.

Those memories were so terrifying and miserable.

At that time, she was still a few months away from turning 18 years old.

Jensen followed her into the room, closed the door, and walked in front of Alice. His eyes were filled

with worry when he looked at Alice.

He said sincerely, "Alice, I'm sorry. I know it's all my fault. From the beginning, I approached you

because your sister had guessed what had happened between you and me. Your sister looked for me!"

"But you thought it was my sister!" She resisted. "My brother- in- law said that you mistakenly thought it

was my sister. You originally wanted to pursue my sister, didn't you?"

Jensen felt very awkward and he replied, "At that time, I did think that the girl was your sister. After all,

it was such a coincidence."

Alice was hurt. She didn't want to see Jensen. "So it turns out that it was not because of who I am, but

because I happened to be the victim. I almost thought it was because of me!"

She couldn't go on anymore. She'd thought that Jensen liked her, which was why he pursued her. Butnovelbin

now, when the truth was revealed, the truth hidden below was actually so bloody.

Everything was shattered into pieces.

Jensen looked at Alice uneasily and said, "Alice, it's true that I hurt you because of you. I also asked

your sister to testify in private. We were sure that it was you."

"Who it was doesn't matter anymore," Alice said, feeling extremely sorrowful.

She walked to the sofa and sat down, not feeling sleepy anymore. Her hands and feet were cold and

she did not have any strength left in her body.

The love from before was supposed to be so comfortable and warm, but now, it had turned into waste

in an instant.

She pursed her lips, unwilling to look at Jensen.

Jensen had no choice but to come over and squat down in front of her. He looked at her and said,

"Alice, I admit that I approached you with some intentions.

"This matter has been buried in my heart for six years. Everyday when I think about it, I can't fall

asleep. I have been looking for you all this time. When I met your sister and knew that she had a child, I

thought it was your sister. Later, the DNA report test result told me that it wasn't her. Your sister told me

that it was you."

Alice's hands clenched into fists.

If her sister did not tell her, then she could understand. She was probably afraid that the trauma in her

heart was too huge and she could not forgive Jensen.

"We testified it later and confirmed that it was you." Jensen said, "I dared not tell you. After all, you

hated men so much. If I told you, then I was afraid that you would hate me right away."

Jensen was right.

Alice knew very well that if Jensen had first revealed his identity to her, she would have immediately

hated him and would definitely not want to have anything to do with him.

After all, he'd hurt her so deeply.

Alice lowered her long eyelashes. She didn't look at Jensen's expression, refusing to listen to him as

she maintained her silence in this way.

One of them was sitting on the sofa and the other was squatting on the ground.

He raised his head to look at her, his eyes never blinking as he did not miss the emotions swirling in

Alice's eyes.

He was worried that Alice did not understand him at all.

Alice's expression was very cold and emotionless. It seemed that she had fallen into her own world and

did not feel anything from the outside world.

"Alice!" Jensen's heart also tightened. He was not sure whether she had heard him or not.

"Jensen," Alice suddenly spoke but she still refused to look at him. She looked at Jensen's long

eyelashes and said softly, "Is it true that as long as that woman was hurt by you, you would take

responsibility even if it was not me?"

"Of course I have to take responsibility. I've been tortured by my conscience for more than four years. I

really want to take responsibility."

"So even if it was not me, you would do it too!" Alice said softly, "I understand now."

No matter who it was, he would be fine with it.

The reason why he came to her for her was to take responsibility, not because he liked her.

Although she was very touched that he was a

man like this, she still could not get over it when she thought that he was looking for her not because

he liked her.

In an instant, Alice lost all of her strength and courage.

Six years ago, she did not know who he was.

Six years later, she finally knew that it was him.

After she had worked hard countless times, when she felt guilty for him, he had refused to say

anything.

And when he finally got her, he still refused to say anything.

If she hadn't overheard that conversation by accident, she wouldn't know when he would admit it.

She couldn't describe how she was feeling at that moment.

Alice quickly stood up.

Jensen was shocked and followed suit.

"Alice, listen to me. I like you."

"You like me because I happened to be the girl in the tent from six years ago. At that time, I was still a

few months away from turning 18 years old and I was still so young. I know now that the reason why I

was doomed was not only because of you, but also because of myself. I couldn't protect myself well so

I deserved it."

"I don't blame you, but for now, I just can't be with you."

"Jensen, I don't need you to be responsible for this kind of love and I don't know how to face you."

"Your thoughts are too heavy and I'm a very simple person. I'm afraid that I'll be played by you and I'm

afraid that I'll be even more doomed if that happens."

"So, Jensen, let's end it all right here."
