It was Lily’s first time making Alexander angry, and he continued to fume the entire night and said no
words to her.
Although he did not lash out at her nor did anything to show his anger, she could feel that he was
upset.
‘Is he mad because he thinks I’m jealous or because I'm not?’ Lily had little experience in relationships.
When she was still dating Nathaniel, she had never once felt jealous.
After all, Lily focused on working for their future and regarded Melanie as their mutual friend.She never
thought that anything would happen between Nathaniel and Melanie.
When she found out about Nathaniel’s affair, she felt betrayed, used, and lied to.It made her mad and
upset.
In retrospect, she was angrier than she was upset.
As for jealousy, she felt none of that.She wondered if Alexander wanted her to be jealous or the other
way around.
However, he said nothing was happening between him and Brittany, so Lily felt no reason to be jealous.
Before she could find an answer to her questions, she got a call from Lisa.
"Lilsy, have you gone back already?"
"Not yet.My flight’s tomorrow."
Lily had just finished washing up.
When she got out of the bathroom, she saw that Alexander was asleep.
Hence, she put on her clothes and went to the living room to answer the call.
"That's great! Do you have time for a meal with me today?"
Then, Lisa continued apologetically, "You got kidnapped because of me, and I’ve been feeling guilty.I
wanted to apologize to you, but I haven’t had the chance to do so.You have to give me a chance to do
this."
Lily comforted her, "It had nothing to do with you.The kidnappers pretended to be your subordinates,
and you had no hand in it.Don’t feel guilty, all right? As for a meal..."
Subconsciously, she looked in the direction of the room, wondering if Alexander had any plans for
them.
"You have to eat with me! If you’re not free for lunch, we can have dinner.I’ll be waiting!"
Lisa said and added when she remembered something, "Oh right! Mr.Corden will be coming too!"
"Mr.Corden? You know Mr.Corden too?"
The person that came into Lily’s mind was the man who sold the Marseille soap.She was surprised that
Lisa knew him too.
Lisa was stunned by her question.
"What do you mean? We met him together at the hospital, so, of course, I know him! Also, if we are
clear, you knew him through me.You saved his son, and now he wants to thank you, so you have to
come today."
Upon hearing that, Lily finally remembered the man she had met at the hospital.
As they had only met once, Lily had forgotten his name.
"You don't..."
Lily wanted to say they did not need to go through all that trouble, but Lisa had already hung up and did
not give her a chance to reject.
"Do you have plans?"
A voice came from behind Lily, surprising and making her snap her head around abruptly.
The sight of a highly charming man entered her sight.
Alexander was leaning on the doorframe as his gaze swept over her lazily.
A look from him could steal anyone’s heart away.
Lily was stunned for a moment.
Although it was not her first time seeing his naked body, and they slept on the same bed, she could not
resist the temptation of his beauty.
"when is it?" He asked, straightening his back as he walked over to her.
Lily returned to her senses and patted her cheeks, trying to clear her head.
"I thought you weren’t talking to me!"
Alexander hugged her and asked, "Why wouldn’t I talk to you?"
Lily rolled her eyes, speechless.
"Yeah.Why wouldn’t you?"
