Ranaway From Wedding, Fell into Tycoon's Love Trap Chapter 979: His Chances of Going Are Slim

Alice Turner hung up Isla Lane’s call and completely lost the mood for sleeping. She lifted the quilt and got out of bed, tidying it up neatly before heading to the bathroom.

While washing her face in front of the mirror, she rembered the bump on her forehead from the collision, and lifted her hanging hair to look at it in the mirror.

The bump on her forehead was smaller than last night, but it was still very noticeable.

Alice pushed her hair aside and decided to leave her hair down today. That way, it could help cover the bump on her forehead.

After finishing up in the bathroom, she used a comb to smooth her hair. She tried her best to use her hair to cover the bump, but she couldn’t make it too obvious; doing so would draw attention from her mom and sister.

She could use her hair to cover the bump on her forehead, but what about the injury on her hand?

Staring at her bandaged left hand, Alice felt at a loss. Wearing gloves outside might still be acceptable, but at ho, she couldn’t keep gloves on.

Others wouldn’t care about her injuries, but her mom and sister would certainly ask her incessantly.

Bzz... Bzz...

Upon hearing the phone vibrate, Alice quickly stepped out of the bathroom and walked swiftly towards the big bed, bending over to pick up the phone from the bedside table.

Phew!

It wasn’t her mother-in-law or her husband; it was her dear mom.

Alice’s slender fingers slid across the phone screen. As soon as she connected the call, she put the phone to her ear, "Mom! I’ll be back later."

This ti her mom called her, undoubtedly to ask when she was coming back.

"Will he be coming back with you?"

Indeed, Sophia Wood was asking Alice when she’d be coming ho, but what she really cared about was the answer to this question. She already knew about Alice and Benjamin Shaw’s divorce, but her husband Christopher Turner was still unaware.

Her husband had specifically called the in-laws, inviting them to bring their daughter and son-in-law over. Knowing so of the details made her quite anxious.

Without explicitly ntioning the na, Alice knew Sophia was referring to Benjamin and truthfully replied, "It’s unlikely he’ll co."

He planned to go on a date with that woman today; he wasn’t willing to waste half an hour on the divorce, much less co to her house.

"Have you thought about how to explain it to your dad?" Sophia wasn’t holding out much hope, and hearing Alice’s words didn’t cause her any surprise or disappointnt. She only felt concerned.

Alice subtly tugged at the corners of her lips: "Soone will explain it to dad."

She had told his mom that much, and his mom would surely call him to ask about the situation. His mom would certainly ask him to co over, whether he would or not was no longer her concern.

Whether he ca or not didn’t matter to her anymore. He had always pretended she didn’t exist, so why should she bother to care about him?

"Soone will explain? Who?"

Sophia was puzzled, not understanding what Alice ant by this. She felt both confused and a bit anxious and worried.

Alice knew Sophia was confused now, and didn’t let her remain in doubt for long, speaking up to clear things up for her: "His parents will explain it."

Besides, she wasn’t going to explain anything. She didn’t know about his situation anyway.

"His parents will explain it?!"

Alice’s explanation left Sophia even more puzzled and surprised, not able to make heads or tails of the situation.
