Chapter 626
Black Rose was stunned. What was the meaning of Alexandria's words?
Could it be that something had happened between her and Chuck last night?
Black Rose had always been an innocent person deep down, so she didn't think too much of what happened last night. However, Alexandrina was giving her a warning. That obviously meant that something had happened, right?
She looked inside and found that Chuck was lying on the sofa, deep in sleep. He was still perfectly clad in his clothes.
So what exactly was going on?
"Boss, did you sleep together with Chuck last night?" Black Rose was really surprised.
How could this have happened?
How could Chuck have slept with Alexandrina?
Black Rose was extremely observant and noticed that the way Alexandrina was walking was odd. Were her legs numb?
Black Rose instantly figured out how Chuck managed to sleep last night. Nothing had happened between them, but he had leaned against Alexandrina's legs and fallen asleep.
Yes, that was probably what had happened.
However, would someone like Alexandrina allow
Chuck to lean against her?
Black Rose found it hard to believe.
"What are you thinking? I didn't let him touch me," Alexandria's face was expressionless.
Black Rose was at a loss for words. She grumbled silently. Since Alexandrina and Chuck had spent the night in the room, Alexandrina couldn't blame her if she was overthinking things.
"Alright, I got it. I won't tell Karen," Black Rose agreed.
Alexandrina took out a card and gave it to Black Rose, bribing, "Don't say a single word to Karen. You should know the consequences."
In fact, she did not want to let Karen know. After all, she used to be Karen's boss. However, she ended up with Chuck now!
Alexandrina felt slightly thrilled by the turn of events. Indeed, Chuck was Karen's son, but he was also her lover now...
However, no matter how happy she was, she still had other things to consider.
It wouldn't be a good time to let Karen know.
Hence, she decided to keep her mouth shut about it.
"Uh, it's fine," Black Rose replied as she awkwardly returned the card to Alexandrina.
Even though Black Rose wasn't as wealthy as Alexandrina, she had already been working for so long. She had earned a remarkable amount of money from that alone. In addition, she had also saved everything up as she didn't spend much.
It was not necessary for her to take the money. She didn't do anything to deserve it after all.
"If you don’t accept it, does it mean that you will tell Karen about it?" Alexandrina snapped.
"That's not... Well, fine. I'll take it," Black Rose sighed as she reluctantly accepted the card.
She looked at Chuck who was still asleep inside and asked, "Shall I wake him up?"
"What for? He can sleep as long as he pleases. Why would you wake him up?" Alexandrina questioned.
Black Rose was speechless.
"But boss, it's not good to get up too late, right?"
Black Rose always woke up at six o'clock in the morning. She was someone who could get up when she wanted to, and she never stayed in bed for longer than she needed to.
"I'll allow him to do as he pleases when he's here with me. Are you trying to control him now?" Alexandrina snorted.
"Fine," Black Rose shrugged. Of course, she would not continue to offend her boss.
"Don't peek, or I'll gouge your eyes out," Alexandrina went in and closed the door.
Black Rose fell speechless as she felt a headache coming on. She wasn't a stalker, so why would she peek inside?
"Chuck, aren't you going to get up?" Alexandrina shook Chuck by the shoulders.
He rubbed his eyes, looked at the time and immediately thought of going back. Yvette must be anxious since he didn’t return home last night. As expected, she had called him a few times. However, he was deep in sleep and didn't manage to hear his phone ringing.
For the whole night, Yvette had been really worried. When she couldn't reach Chuck, she immediately called Black Rose. Yvette was relieved after Black Rose gave her a brief explanation.
After all, Yvette was worried that Chuck would do something impulsive.
Fortunately, he didn't.
"Who allowed you to leave? You leaned on me for the entire night. My legs are numb now because of that," Alexandrina grunted in discomfort.
Chuck could only turn around and give her a massage.
Then again, he slept soundly last night. He didn't expect that he could find such a feeling being with Alexandrina besides Willa.
However, there was still a huge difference.
The biggest difference between them was their body scent. Willa had a light scent that smelled particularly pleasant.
Alexandrina didn't have this fragrance on her, so he could easily distinguish them apart.
However, there wasn't that big of a difference between them.
"Alexandrina, can I go back now?" Chuck asked.
"No, you need to go somewhere with me today. After that, I'll let you go home," Alexandrina was enjoying Chuck's massage.
Chuck was quite professional.
"Okay," Chuck agreed since he could not reject Alexandrina.
After a while, Chuck's stomach growled. He chuckled awkwardly, "Alexandrina, I'm hungry."
"What do you want to eat?"
"It's up to you."
Alexandrina immediately asked someone to deliver some food for them. Halfway through his meal, Chuck suddenly thought of Black Rose. He ran out with a hamburger, and found that Black Rose was standing outside. She seemed like she was deep in her thoughts.
"Here you are," Chuck handed the burger over to her.
"Huh? Is this for me?" Black Rose was surprised. She was indeed hungry, but she didn't expect Chuck to share some food with her.
She even planned to buy a meal for herself later.
"Yup."
While Black Rose was still in shock, Chuck had already returned to the room.
She looked at the hamburger and then took a bite. She suddenly remembered something and murmured, "This burger isn't as delicious as the cake last time. I want to eat that..."
Soon, Chuck, Alexandrina and Black Rose had all filled their stomachs.
"Where are we going?" Chuck asked. However, Alexandrina didn't answer him. He was itching to know where they were going. More importantly, he wanted to know how long it would take before he could return home.
Chuck wanted to go to find Willa now.
"Just follow me," Alexandrina changed into some casual clothes. She looked much more innocent now.
She had a simple pair of jeans, a T- shirt and sneakers on. Chuck was shocked to find that she even resembled those friendly girl-next-door types. What was she planning to do?
Was she planning to head home?
Chuck followed her out and got into her car in a state of confusion, with Black Rose right behind them.
Two hours later.
When the car stopped, Chuck saw that they had arrived at a beautiful manor. There were a lot of cars parked inside with many people inside. Was this a family gathering?
"Alexandrina, what's going on?" Chuck was confused.
Why did she bring him home?!
"This is my family, and... today you are not my lover, but my real boyfriend," Alexandrina replied calmly.
A while ago, she had received a phone call from her family.
She knew that there would be a family gathering today.
In fact, she hadn't planned to return home.
However, when she glanced at Chuck, she felt that it was time to go home. After all, she wasn't young anymore, and her parents were rushing for her to get married. The only thing she could do now was to put on an act with Chuck.
"I have a wife,” Chuck replied seriously.
"No. Today, I'm your wife," Alexandrina ignored his protests.
Chuck stared at her exasperatedly. Looking at the beautiful manor, he said hesitantly, "I'm not good at socializing."
With Willa's disappearance, Chuck was not in the mood to talk at all.
"It's okay. I'm here. What are you afraid of?" Alexandrina pinched Chuck's face. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Chuck was speechless at her behavior. Was she treating him like a child?
Chuck tried rejecting her again, but after thinking about it for a while, he finally gave in. There was no point running away since he was already here.
"Got it." Chuck agreed.
"Good. I will allow you to kiss me later if necessary."
"What if it's not necessary?" Chuck asked in his attempt to make the best out of his situation.
"Are you joking around with me? Come out," Alexandrina had already got out of the car.
Of course, Chuck followed her.
Sure enough, this manor was her home. Chuck noticed that Alexandria's attitude had completely changed. She had suddenly become more gentle and sensible.
It seemed like her family didn't know that she was the boss of the greatest organization of assassins in the world.
"Alexandria."
Someone came over to greet them.
"She's my mother," Alexander whispered to Chuck, who immediately recognized the similarities between them. Even though the woman was already in her fifties, she looked a lot like Alexandrina. She must've been an absolute beauty when she was younger.
Seeing that Alexandrina had arrived, all her other relatives came over.
After greeting each other, her relatives looked at Chuck.
Some people were unhappy. It was supposed to be a family gathering today, and there was not a single outsider present. Why did Alexandrina bring home an outsider?
He seemed extremely out of place.
"Who is this man? Why is he with Alexandrina?"
"Could it be that he's her boyfriend?"
"Oh god, that's impossible. This man seems like an irresponsible coward. How could Alexandrina end up with someone like him? He even looks younger than her..."
"Hey, let's persuade Alexandrina together. There are many other men for her to choose from. She doesn't have to stick with this one."
Several relatives started complaining to Alexandrina, mocking Chuck with every word they spoke.
