Alice Turner's repeated refusals left Thomas Fisher somewhat displeased, and his face showed his discontent, "My place is much more comfortable than a hotel."
He glanced at her, looking visibly unhappy.
"I don't deny that, but it's not appropriate for me to stay at your place now. Let's wait until I'm divorced, then I can move in, okay?" Alice wasn't one to be overly sentimental, but right now she genuinely couldn't have any substantial dealings with him, as she was still a married woman.
Yet she couldn't bear to see him unhappy; when he was upset, it made her feel uncomfortable.
Upon hearing Alice's words, Thomas's expression noticeably improved, yet he persisted in insisting she stay at his place, "There's nothing inappropriate about it. It's my turf, and I call the shots. Just go ahead and stay there."
