Chapter 1674: Let Them Develop Naturally

Alice Turner never thought she could have such a calm conversation with Benjamin Shaw. She was surprised and happy.

Similarly, Benjamin Shaw never imagined he’d face a day when he’d metaphorically slap himself in the face, and it stung quite a bit.

After chatting for a while, both of them felt a lot more relaxed, especially Benjamin. He finally expressed what was in his heart and no longer needed to endure in silence.

At the entrance of the building, Benjamin and Alice waved goodbye. She then went upstairs to return to her office, and he drove away.

“Sis! What did your ex-husband want with you?”

Since Alice left with Benjamin, Anthony had been feeling anxious, unable to bring himself to the office to work. He lingered in Alice’s office, waiting for her return.

As soon as Alice pushed open the door and walked into her office, Anthony ran over to her and asked directly.

“It’s such a pity you’re not working as an entertainment reporter with how nosy you are.” Alice sidestepped the person running towards her and walked briskly to her desk.

Anthony didn’t care about her remark, quickly turning around to chase after her, “Come on, satisfy my curiosity. What did your ex-husband want from you?”

At this moment, he was terribly nosy, refusing to let go of Alice.

“Jacob! How about you call Caroline and tell her not to come.” Alice sternly looked at Anthony, and the atmosphere changed instantly, leaving him momentarily puzzled.

“What do you mean? Why shouldn’t Caroline come? What exactly did your ex-husband just say to you?” Anthony finally processed what Alice had said; he had agreed initially, but after chatting with her ex-husband, she changed her mind.

He was convinced her ex-husband had said something, otherwise, she wouldn’t react this way.

Alice stared at Anthony for a while, hesitating before deciding to tell him the truth, “Benjamin agreed to step back, he won’t ever…”

“Your ex-husband agreed to step back?! Are you serious?” Anthony was surprised, astonished Benjamin would agree to step back; he hadn’t expected this.

If true, he truly admired the ex-husband.

Alice nodded: “It’s true, so we shouldn’t continue like this. I feel like what we’re doing is insulting him.”

He has a good family background, is handsome, and is quite capable; surely he doesn’t lack good girls around him.

“How could it be insulting him? Caroline is a model, has won many awards, including international ones.” Anthony thought Alice meant Caroline wasn’t good enough for Benjamin and praised Caroline earnestly.

Alice realized Anthony misunderstood her, quickly explaining, “I don’t mean Caroline isn’t good or that she’s not suitable for Benjamin. I mean, given Benjamin’s own qualities, finding a good girl would be easy.”

“Why can’t that good girl be Caroline? I think they’re a perfect match, handsome and beautiful, like they were born to be together.” Anthony seemed fixated, initially trying to reunite Alice and Benjamin, and now matchmaking Caroline and Benjamin.

Alice had seen Caroline, indeed a stunning beauty with a superb figure, but was what they were doing the right thing?

“Let’s not purposely try to match them up. Let them naturally develop.” After considering for a moment, she finally compromised.
