True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 415

Grace was worried but she was relieved when she heard Jensen's voice.

Grace smiled and asked, "Did something happen?"

Jensen glanced at Alice's face and his eyes were pained again but he replied, "Nope, nothing happened. Don't worry."

"That's great. You guys have fun!" Grace chuckled, "I won't bother you two."

"Thanks." Jensen seemingly promised Grace but he also seemed to be upset that he could not protect Alice. He added, "Don't worry, Grace. I will protect Alice with my life." Grace was taken aback when she heard Jensen's declaration. She replied sincerely, "Thank you, Officer Charm."

Alice, who was next to Jensen, froze when she heard him.

Jensen's indirect statement pressured her.

After hanging up the call, Jensen returned Alice's mobile phone to her.

Alice stared at her mobile phone in Jensen's large hand and she reached out to take it.

However, the moment her hand touched the mobile phone, Jensen suddenly wrapped his hand around hers.

Alice's body quivered and her heart trembled. Her whole body stiffened.

Her heart contracted and a pang of pain hit her.

The pain spread from her heart to her fingertips but it felt like it was the other way around too.

Alice was rooted to the spot, allowing Jensen's large palm to wrap around her hand and her mobile phone tightly.

She did not dare to look up.

Alice was afraid that she would burst into tears when she met his gaze.

However, Jensen did not speak and merely held her hand tightly.

Alice lowered her head deliberately and stared at his hand. His hands were huge. His fingers were long and slender and his nails were trimmed neatly. Jensen was eyeing Alice when she licked her lips and uttered, "Jensen, let go."

Jensen stiffened. He clenched his hand and replied suggestively, "Alice, I won't let you go. I've decided to never let go ever since I held your hand."

Alice sighed silently. She was certain that Jensen knew that she was going to break up with him.

However, Jensen was smart and observant, hence he stopped her before she could say it.

"However if being with me puts you in danger," Jensen continued in a pained voice, "I would rather let you go."

Alice was taken aback and looked up.

She met Jensen's eyes.

Alice spotted tears in Jensen's eyes in the darkness.

Immediately, tears welled up in Alice's eyes.

"Jensen..." she called in a low voice.

Jensen stared at her and hummed in a choked voice. He was restraining himself.

Yet, Alice was able to tell how he felt.

"Before that though, I need to be sure if it's something I can overcome." Jensen's tone was resolute. He stared at Alice unblinkingly and continued firmly, "I won't give up without trying. I won't even if I die." Alice sighed again.

She admired Jensen very much.

She did not believe in men but she could not help but admire Jensen when he acted like that.

A gush of wind blew over them and Alice shivered.

Jensen immediately took off his coat and put it around Alice without a word.

Jensen wore a casual shirt. His well-built body was hidden under the shirt.

Alice held onto the hem of his coat and tears rolled down her cheeks as she lowered her eyes.

Her tears fell on the back of Jensen's hand.

Jensen suddenly froze. He stared at Alice and put his arm over Alice's shoulder silently. They headed to the car together.

In Hart Villa District.

Twenty minutes later.

They returned home.

As soon as they entered the house, Jensen put everything down and sat Alice down on the sofa.

He went to the fridge to get some ice. On the way back to Alice, he took out a first aid kit.

He was an officer and he would often suffer from injuries. Therefore, he prepared various types of medication for different injuries.

He sat down on the sofa and checked Alice's wounds.

Jensen brushed her hair away and looked at her injuries under the bright light. He was shocked again and his eyes narrowed.

He examined her wounds carefully. He was afraid that he would cause her more pain if he touched her.

As soon as Alice met Jensen's gaze, she felt as if she was being burned.

She stood up immediately and said, "I need to take a shower, let me take a shower before applying the ice."

Jensen was taken aback. He knew she was avoiding him. Jensen parted his lips and said bitterly, "Alice, let me disinfect your wounds."

"No, it doesn't hurt. Let's talk about it after I take a shower." She was very uncomfortable and felt very dirty. "Don't worry."

As soon as she finished, she went into the bathroom.

Jensen's hand froze in the air and the pain in his eyes intensified.

Alice was in the bathroom.

Jensen took a deep breath and wiped his face with his hands. He went to the study.

After entering his study, he picked up his mobile phone and made a phone call. "Help me replace out something."

"Sir, what are your instructions?" Jensen's subordinate asked.

"Who did we offend recently? Also, check who is following me and my girlfriend." Jensen instructed.

"Sir, your girlfriend?"

"Especially today at the police station. Check what was going on when I was hugging a girl."

"Sir, I'll check it out right away."

Jensen's subordinate probably realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately checked the surveillance cameras. Jensen added, "As soon as possible."

"What's the matter, sir?" Daren Arnold, Jensen's subordinate on the other end of the call, asked.

"My girlfriend was assaulted," Jensen added, "You guys should also be careful too. Tell your friends and families to watch out." "What the f*ck!" Daren swore, "I'll check it right now."

"My girlfriend is Alice Smith."

"Alright, is your girlfriend all right?"

"She was frightened."

"D*mn, I'm on it. I'll beat them to pulp if I replace out who they are!"

Jensen pursed his lips. His voice was very calm but Daren could feel the menacing aura from Jensen over the phone.

"I'll do it myself!"

Jensen hung up the phone and took out a cigarette from the study's drawer. He lit it and exhaled sharply.

In the bathroom, Alice froze when she spotted her reflection in the mirror.

Her face was injured badly and very swollen. She lied that she tripped over and Jensen did not pester her. He probably guessed what had happened and blamed himself for it. Alice turned on the cold water. She washed her swollen and painful face. The cold water made her wounds feel better.

Later, she took off her clothes and took a shower.

It was only then that she discovered she had twisted her arm. Her fair skin was covered with bruises and scratches.

Those men were ruthless. They injured her arm so horribly.

After taking the shower, Alice intended to put on a bathrobe to hide her wounds from Jensen.

However, the bathroom door opened before Alice could put on her clothes.

Jensen stood by the door. His eyes were miserable when he stared at Alice.
