Chapter 24 Living Together
Together?Only if he hadn't impregnated another woman.Even if he didn't love her, she would...Victoria forgot to breathe and just stared at him in a daze.But Alexander's dark eyes were remarkably calm.Her mind went blank at the moment their eyes met, but then, she realized he must be using her for amusement again.He must be angry with her because he couldn't get divorced immediately, so he was deliberately provoking her.He smelled of a familiar perfume... the perfume that Isabella wore.Maybe he had already had a bath with her.How could he want to bathe with another person when he had someone he liked by his side?With that in mind, she held her phone, ignoring him and politely saying, "Then I'll go first."She got up and left. Even though her phone was still vibrating, she didn't have time to deal with it.Alexander just watched her.
Later...Alexander's tall figure stood by the bed, listening to the phone ringing in the bathroom.Were they going to text all night?Actually, the person sending her WhatsApp messages now wasn't even a common friend.Victoria buried herself in the bathtub, uninterested in the content of the messages on her phone.She just felt exhausted.From wanting to leave to returning to the company, then to Old Lady Harrington being hospitalized, and Alexander returning here; her day had been chaoticAfter nearly thirty minutes, she emerged from the water, gasping for breath with her hand on her face.Her skin was undoubtedly beautiful, but her mood was somewhat heavy.She tried to look ahead, trying to make everything clear.But everything was blurry.She knew that her future in this city was also blurry.She and Alexander were definitely going to divorce.But she didn't know how long this divorce would be delayed.She came out of the bathroom, grabbing her half-dried hair.Alexander was still standing there. He just slightly turned around, his dark hawk-like eyes now staring straight at her.Victoria stood there in a daze, suddenly not knowing what to do."I... I'll go sleep in the guest room."She immediately found her place."Stop."But as soon as she took a step, he called out.Victoria stopped and looked at him, "Do you have any other instructions, Mr. Alexander?""Just sleep here."He said lightly.Victoria looked at him, puzzled.Alexander's dominant aura quickly trapped her as his deep voice overtook her senses, "What do you think the nanny is here for?""But she's already asleep.""The elders always praise you for being gentle and smart, but Victoria, why do I find you not precious in your stupidity?"He asked her.Victoria was a bit angry, but she remained silent."Starting tonight, we're going to sleep in the same room all the time."He reminded her again.But he didn't seem to be talking to his wife, but rather commanding his subordinate.Subordinate?Yes, if she continued to be a secretary, wouldn't she be his subordinate?She looked around the room. She saw a bed and a sofa and, fearing her own petty mind, she asked, "So, Alexander, who sleeps on the sofa and who sleeps on the bed?"In case he wanted to be chivalrous and sleep on the sofa, giving her the bed, then her question wouldn't have been in vain.Alexander looked at her for a long time without saying a word.Victoria felt as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water, her anger was extinguished, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.He smiled, said nothing, and under her gaze, he walked towards the bathroom with his long legs.Right, he should be going to take a bath.Victoria immediately remembered that he had forgotten his pajamas last time and quickly reminded him, "Alexander, you didn't bring your pajamas."
