“Does the gender matter?” He asked.
Right! It was impossible to reason with a jealous husband.
“Okay then, I‘m honored that Mr. Russell is all jealous because of me. However,” she paused and
cupped his face in her hands, “We‘re also decent human beings and should be considerate of others.
I‘m going to check on Jenny. Please, just be good for me, okay?” She pecked him lightly on the lips and
went to make her call. Alexander could not refute it, as she made perfect sense and even cared for his
ego. It was undeniably difficult to refuse her. “Hey Jenny, are you there yet? How‘s the situation?” Lily
asked. She was unsure if the client was an actual client or just someone Alexander had planted there.
Regardless, she wanted to ensure her friend was safe.
“How long do you need? Come back soon and if you need anything, just call me,” Lily repeated. At the
same time, Alexander raised his hand and squeezed her waist playfully.
Lily rolled her eyes at him and continued, “It‘s nothing. I was just clumsy and hit the table with my leg.
I‘m okay! Don‘t worry about me. Have a safe trip back to the hotel, and I‘ll see you later. Bye!”
Lily then glared at him. “Stop it!” / “What did I do? I didn‘t utter a word or make a sound,” he feigned
innocence.
“Yes, you didn‘t make a sound, but your hands were busy,” Lily stated while imitating what he had done
before.
Her hand went to his waist and gave it a squeeze. Alexander was unfazed and did not even flinch.
Lily looked at him in shock. Was he even human? How could he not react at all?
“See, I didn‘t even hit my leg against anything. Therefore, it‘s your problem, not mine,” Alexander
reasoned.
The nerve of him to imitate her words! Lily was not amused. She tried to get up, but he only held her
tighter and turned her around, so he was pressing against her on the sofa. His eyes stared into hers
passionately.
Lily could only look into his face as he moved closer to her. Even from such a distance, he looked
perfect. God was really unfair sometimes!
“Impressive, right?” He played with her hands and asked, “Do you like what you see?” “Yes, you look
delectable!” Lily nodded. She smiled and pulled him closer. Her longing for him only increased after she
saw him. All she wanted was to embrace him and not let go. Alexander hugged her tightly while
murmuring her name again and again. Lily was in a daze as her mind was only filled with Alexander.
