Chapter 38 Where is what I want?
Watching this scene, Sophie thought that the show was about to begin, with a hint of smugness in her eyes.
She thought, 'Katherine ruined my watch, so today is her retribution. She deserves it!'
Sophie sighed and walked over, pretending to kindly persuade, "Alex, don't be angry. No one could have expected Katherine to do such a thing behind your back."
Alexander glanced at Sophie, then turned his cold gaze towards Katherine and said, "Come here!"
Katherine remained calm, thanked Jonathan for supporting her, and obediently walked towards Alexander step by step. "Sir."
However, before she reached Alexander, she suddenly felt dizzy and uncontrollably fell to the ground.
Alexander reached out and held her in his arms, frowning. "Aren't you something? Are you so weak now?"
Katherine was already feeling terrible, but Alexander's sarcasm made her very unhappy. If she had the strength, she would have slapped him.
She thought, 'I don't need his care, but he should at least have some compassion, right?'
Sophie, Sunny, and Fiona were all puzzled as they watched Alexander anxiously holding onto Katherine.
Because Alexander seemed not to care at all about whether Katherine had betrayed him, instead, he was more concerned about her well-being.
After resting on Alexander for a while, Katherine finally had the strength to lift her head and ask him, "Sir, did you bring the things I asked you to buy for me?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was curious about what it could be.
When Alexander mentioned that thing, a sense of shame and helplessness appeared on his usually mature and stern face. He then took out a pack of sanitary pads from his exquisite suit pocket and handed them to Katherine.
"Thank you!" Katherine took the sanitary pads and left his embrace, weakly making her way to the restroom alone.
Alexander gestured with his eyes for Leander to immediately follow and accompany Katherine.
The atmosphere in the lounge suddenly became complicated.
Sophie, Sunny, and Fiona were completely stunned. The once arrogant Alexander actually helped Katherine buy sanitary pads.
Sandra also noticed that there was no issue of trust between them, so things definitely did not go as Fiona had described.
Sandra walked over and asked, "Alex, what's really going on? Do you know that Katherine is here?"
Alexander nodded faintly. "Yes, I know. She told me in advance when she came to see the art exhibition today, but later, she felt unwell and messaged me to come pick her up."
Everyone was speechless.
Especially Sunny and Fiona, who were already terrified.
What happened? Did Katherine call Alexander here?
Katherine ran out to secretly meet another man, and she even informed Alexander in advance.
What is really going on?
Thinking about how pale Katherine looked just now, Sandra was really worried. "Alex, Katherine is not feeling well, so you should take her to the hospital."
Alexander lowered his head, furrowed his brow, and said, "Grandma, don't worry, she's fine. Girls have a few uncomfortable days every month. I will take her to the hospital later."
Sandra realized that it was Katherine's menstrual period, and she was feeling unwell because of menstrual cramps.
Knowing that Katherine was not seriously ill, Sandra finally breathed a sigh of relief.
On the other hand, this also proved that Katherine was not pregnant yet, so Sandra sighed with regret.
She thought that her great-grandchild would have to wait at least another month.
Things did not unfold as Sunny had expected, so he persisted and walked over to remind them, "Alex, before you arrived, Katherine and Jonathan were lying in the lounge. They were alone together, so something must have happened between them. You should divorce this unfaithful woman."
Alexander looked at Sunny. "Don't you have to go to school? Why are you so concerned about my wife's affairs?"
Sunny felt flustered and swallowed. "I... I took the day off today!"
Alexander raised an eyebrow. "Did you take the day off just to monitor my wife?"
Sunny hesitated and said, "I... I happened to see her coming out alone, so I casually followed her to see what would happen. And then, I discovered that she was on a date with another man."
Alexander remained calm and narrowed his eyes slightly. "Sunny, let me remind you. She married me to be my wife in the Melville family so I would not be imprisoned in the Melville family. Where she wants to go or who she wants to see is her personal freedom. As her husband, I also believe that she has boundaries and won't do anything inappropriate."
Sunny was a little dissatisfied and raised his voice. "But she has already done something inappropriate. She was in the same room with another man, and they were lying in bed together!"
Fiona also came over to support Sunny and said, "Alex, Katherine did indeed..."
Alexander coldly stared at Fiona. "You are also causing trouble with her. You even brought Grandma here. Grandma is already very old. What if her health is affected? How will you explain it?"
Fiona immediately yielded. "Alex, I..."
"You should immediately take Grandma home!" Alexander commanded in a deep voice.
"Okay." Fiona dared not say anything more. She obediently went over to support Sandra, and they left, intending to go home.
Seeing this situation, Sophie was very surprised. She thought for a moment and said, pretending to be kind, "Alex, Sunny, and Fiona are young and immature, but they are doing all this because they care about you too much."
"And what about you?" Alexander looked at Sophie with cold eyes.
Sophie was taken aback. "Well, of course, I..."
A hint of displeasure appeared in Alexander's eyes. "Are you the same as them, immature because of your youth?"
Sophie frowned in dissatisfaction. "Alex, but we did see Katherine lying on that bed..."
"She was just here to see the art exhibition. She rested here because she wasn't feeling well. Is there a problem?" Alexander's voice was deep, calm, and unwavering.
Sophie looked puzzled. "Alex, do you really trust her so much? You don't even believe what the three of us saw with our own eyes."
Alexander said, "I have no reason to doubt my wife and believe a few idle onlookers."
Sophie was stunned. She couldn't put into words her shock.
During the fondue dinner they had together, Sophie had already witnessed Alexander's exceptional care for Katherine, and today she saw his baseless trust in her.
Sophie thought, 'I have to admire Katherine; she is truly remarkable.'
With Fiona supporting Sandra back home, Sophie also took Sunny and left.
In the lounge, only two men remained, looking at each other, secretly suspecting each other.
After a while, Jonathan elegantly shrugged and smiled, "Alex, it's been a long time since we last met."
