Alice Turner explained her situation with Benjamin Shaw and Thomas Fisher to Anthony in a straightforward manner, omitting anything unnecessary and focusing on the main points that illustrated the situation.
"So it turns out you and your ex-husband were forced into marriage by your families? Poor ex-husband." After listening to Alice Turner narrate the whole situation, Anthony couldn't help but sympathize with Benjamin Shaw.
Hearing him say this, Alice Turner rolled her eyes at him, "He wasn't the only one forced into marriage."
If he's pitiful, then isn't she too?
"But you have that Thomas guy who loves you, and your ex-husband is still all alone." Thinking about how Benjamin Shaw was still living alone, Anthony's heart surged with sympathy and pity.
Alice Turner blurted out, "If you think he's pitiful being all alone, then why don't you go accompany him?"
As soon as she said it, she realized she had spoken out of turn.
