Chapter 315
Chapter 315
After Alice had dinner with the Kaur family, she was about to bring her kids home when it suddenly rained outside.
Seeing this, Rebecca immediately said to her, “It’s raining so heavily. It will be dangerous driving with the kids. Why don’t you rest here tonight?”
“This… isn’t appropriate, right?” Alice was a little hesitant. She had already decided to divorce Daniel. It was a little inappropriate for them to still live under the same roof.
However, Rebecca smiled and said, “There is no such thing. Didn’t we already say that even if you divorce Daniel, you’re still our daughter?”
“Who dares to say anything bad about you staying in your house for the night? If you’re afraid that Daniel will knock on your door at night, we’ll tie his hands and feet.”
Daniel was speechless. He even doubted if that was his mother saying that.
However, when he thought about Alice staying under the same roof as him, he felt it did not matter what his family did. It was great enough for his wife to stay.
Sure enough, under Rebecca’s repeated persuasion, Alice stayed.
She bathed the little boys and watched them fall asleep before returning to the guest room.
“You’re staying at the Kaur family for the night? Alice, are you really going to reconcile with him?” When Candice called Alice, she couldn’t help but be concerned.
“No, we’ll still get a divorce,” said Alice.
“Since you’re getting a divorce, you shouldn’t be living together…” Candice said. She paused for a moment before continuing to ask, “Alice, do you really have no feelings for Daniel anymore?”
“Well… how should I put it? The gap between us is too big. I don’t have the confidence to manage this marriage with him.”
“Daniel has a good family background. Everything else about him is useless. Especially look at what he did. Which one of them looks smart to you?”
Candice felt that Alice and Daniel were actually complementary types.
It looked like the two of them were very different, but Daniel needed an Alice.
Meanwhile, Alice rubbed her temples. “His EQ is too low. If I choose him, I might as well keep an obedient young hunk to
entertain me.”
That was a complete joke.
When she was with Candice, she would often say irrelevant things.
Anyway, girls understood girls. It was not a big deal for everyone to joke around happily.
“What kind of young hunk do you want? I’ll help you plan it.” Candice smiled. “Hey, I’ve seen Mr. William’s company. There are really many handsome boys working there.”
“Hmm… Office romance isn’t appropriate, right? Let’s set up a studio alone to keep young hunks. What do you think?”
“Haha, that’s totally fine. If we have nothing better to do, we’ll get the fresh hunks to massage us. We’ll reward them with a kiss if they’re obedient.”
“Ah!” Just as Alice was about to continue joking with Candice and fantasizing about the future. Her body suddenly soared, scaring her so much that she instinctively cried out.
“Alice, what happened?” asked Candice worriedly.
Alice placed a hand on Daniel’s shoulder, looked at the man who suddenly appeared, and carried her up.
She sighed helplessly and quickly explained to Candice, “It’s… It’s nothing serious. Don’t worry.”
“Is it really nothing serious?” Candice expressed her disbelief.
Alice nodded and quickly said, “Let’s talk when we meet tomorrow. It’s getting late. Go to sleep.”
“Okay… I’m sleepyanyway.” Candice yawned and hung up.
Seeing the screen go dark, Alice said to Daniel helplessly, “Put me down quickly.”
Daniel did not answer. Instead, he carried Alice to the bed.
17:44
Alice was inexplicably nervous after being placed on the bed by the man. She blinked and said, “Erm… Daniel, you… You have to control your urge.”
Daniel cupped her little face and pecked her on the lips.
If he hadn’t deliberately controlled himself, he would have forced himself on her by now.
“Daniel, let go of me first.” The man’s sudden approach made Alice’s heart race. She was not used to it.
Meanwhile, Daniel’s eyes darkened, and his voice was a little h oa rse. “You’ve thought of keeping young hunks?”
When he pushed the door open and entered, he heard his wife say something about keeping young hunks. It reminded him that his wife might really leave him…
“Erm… The corner of Alice’s mouth twitched.
It turned out that this guy had heard her joking with Candice just now.
Based on this fellow’s personality, he would definitely misunderstand.
However, she had no choice. She often joked with Candice about this. How would she know that Daniel would suddenly appear?
“Um… Daniel, don’t… don’t misunderstand. We were making a joke through the phone. We won’t do that.”
The man in front of her was jealous. Alice knew that she had to explain it to him clearly.
“Really?” Daniel clearly didn’t believe it.
After all, he had always known how popular his wife was.
If his wife did not want him but chose a better man, he would have nothing…
“Of course, it’s true. I don’t like men younger than me. I have very high standards. I don’t like men who aren’t handsome,” said Alice with a smile.
She was not joking. The quality of the men around her was very high.
She lived among handsome men all year round. If it were her turn to choose a partner, she would definitely not find an ordinary one.
Otherwise, she would be letting herself down.
At this moment, Daniel placed his hands beside Alice’s ears and stared at her. “What do you think I am to you?”
“Huh?” Alice was stunned. She had no idea what he meant by that.
“A particularly handsome man?” asked Daniel.
Realizing what he was asking, Alice didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Hmm… You are indeed a very handsome man,” Alice replied sincerely.
It had to be said that Daniel’s looks did meet her standards.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have agreed to the flash marriage so easily back then.
The ambiguous atmosphere between them had just risen when the door opened with a clang.
Then, Rachel widened his eyes and shook her head at them. She smiled and said, “I’m sorry. Did I… disturb you?”
This time, Alice’s face flushed red. She quickly shook her head. “Rachel, no… Erm… you… Are you looking for me?”
She looked at Daniel as she spoke, signaling the man to let go of her.
Rachel was here. He couldn’t do anything he wanted anymore. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Otherwise, it would really be not easy to explain.
However, at this moment, Rachel gave them an expression that she understood. Then, she smiled and spoke.
“It’s fine. It’s okay. I just came to see if you need anything… Please continue.”
