Chapter 626
Alexander smiled and turned Lily’s body to face him. He gently placed her one hand on his chest and
said warmly, “The heart is not always cold but also warm. How could you be so pessimistic, my love?”
His lovely words made Lily blush, and the one hand he held was motionless, sticking to his chest. Lily’s
hand felt warm from the heat of his body. “You knew this was a game and accompanied me through it
all. Now you’re stuck here with me. I’m sorry,” she sighed in a low voice.
Alexander’s eyes sank, and he leaned down to bite her lips fiercely. It was not a gentle kiss, but a hard
bite with his teeth, causing her to gasp in pain. After biting and releasing them, he stared into his wife’s
eyes and said, “Remember this as a lesson. I’ll punish you if you ever talk to me like I’m a stranger
again.”
Lily was silent. ‘He’s such a domineering yet touching man.‘
She pursed her lips, and they felt numb. Still, the reality is that we’re stuck here, and they won’t give
me the answer I want.”
Just now, in the mourning hall, she had already seen through it all. The murderer and the charges were
just a conspiracy to seize power from Justin. She could see through it, so Justin. naturally understood
as well. What she did not understand was why Justin seemed to let it go.
Since he had been in power in the family for many years, why should he be afraid of a so called elder
who suddenly returned out of nowhere?
“If they don’t give you the answer, then we’ll find it ourselves!” Alexander said lightly, and Lily could not
hear the slightest worry or anxiety in his voice.
Lily realized how calm Alexander was, as if he had everything under control. He remained calm. and
faithful. Lily felt at peace when she was standing next to him.
“Yes! We’ll find out for ourselves!” She nodded, “But I still want to see Justin first.”
“You want to ask him why?” Raising his eyebrows, Alexander immediately guessed what his wife was
thinking.
“Yes. Even if Justin has his reasons, I still want to figure out why.”
“Want me to accompany you?” Alexander asked, holding her hand.
“No. There might be spies around. I don’t know if he will tell me, but Henry may come and find you.
“Then I’ll wait for him.” He said disapprovingly. When he saw Lily about to leave, he reached. out to
hold her. “Wait a minute.”
“Yes?”
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside, and Alexander said, “Come in.”
A maid walked in with a dinner plate, and the scent of food filled the air.
“It’s been a long day, and you’re probably hungry by now. Grab to eat something first,” Alexander took
Lily’s hand, sat at the table, and asked the maid to put the things down.
Lily did not feel it at first, but she suddenly felt hungry when Alexander mentioned it.
The maid put down the food and cutleries, backed up, and closed the door. Lily turned her head,
noticed that someone had moved her cutleries, and raised her eyebrows. “Aren’t you. afraid that
someone might’ve poisoned the food?”
After all, there was a riot of poisoning.
Alexander raised his head and smiled, “If Henry or whoever can solve it with such inferior means, why
would there be so much drama?“.
