Alice Turner's underlying meaning was obvious, and it was difficult for Anthony not to understand. This time, he didn't refute her, nor did he secretly resort to underhanded tactics.
He listened to her words and obediently went back to his room to work, no longer thinking about things unrelated to work.
Since she knew Thomas Fisher was living right across from her, and understood his true intentions, Alice Turner hadn't left her room since returning after breakfast.
She didn't leave her room because she wanted to avoid any 'accidental' encounters with him from the opposite room.
When Anthony left Alice Turner's room, Alice had already told him not to knock on her door, and that he should just call her if he needed anything.
She did this simply to reduce the chance that Thomas Fisher would suddenly appear at her door, as she really didn't have a good way to deal with him clinging to her.
Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!
