71. 7 If He Knew That the Separation was a Farewell
She didn’t dare look at him again, turned around and faced the other side.
After a while, she couldn’t help but turn around again.
That tall shadow still stood there without moving.
Felix and Fia slept for a while and Jessie was too embarrassed to get up.
But the pressure from the scorching gaze at the door was too great. She pinched the blanket and continued to lie there for a few minutes. In the end, she still got up quietly.
When she started to put on her shoes, the tall shadow of the man finally disappeared. His steady footsteps sounded on the stairs.
She bit the bullet and followed him out.
Just as she reached the staircase, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist. She was s o scared that she screamed. Before she could open her mouth, the sound was swallowed by the man.
He held her up and put her slender legs on his lean and strong waist. He continued to kiss her lips and held her round butt with his big hands as he walked downstairs.
He was especially tall and Jessie was afraid of falling down. Her two hands tightly hugged his neck and her fair and slender fingers were inserted into his thick and messy short hair.
In the quiet night, it was as if there were only their panting sounds upstairs and downstairs.
“Let’s go back to the room first…” Jessie begged in a low voice.
The room was too spacious and the sound was especially loud and clear.
“Right here.” Alex was annoyed that she did not want to come out just now and made him wait for so long. He put her on the handrail of the stairs and then tightened his grip on her waist.
Jessie did not dare to make a sound and opened her mouth to bite his shoulder.
Men usually had strong muscles, but now their muscles were as hard as iron. She did not bite him, but her teeth hurt instead. She had to bite the corner of his robe to suppress the scream.
They were going to separate tomorrow, and they would not see each other for at least two days. Alex no longer restrained himself.
Jessie just realized that she had suppressed him a few times before. He was completely released tonight, which made her feel scared.
Later on, she cried and begged, and was forced to call his name many times. Only then did he
stop.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, he started again.
She was so tired that she didn’t even have the strength to cry...
That night, Jessie was very tired from the torment. When she woke up the next day, it was already dawn. The laughter of the children playing came from downstairs.
She looked at the ceiling and was somewhat at a loss.
She remembered that last night, he threw the thing with the contraceptive measure into the garbage bag and then stuffed it under the bed. She turned over and hid her head under the bed to look. It was empty inside. The garbage bag was long gone.
Jessie did not know that there was a garbage bag underneath. It should be that he threw it out early in the morning.
Thinking of this, Jessie could not help but pull up the blanket and cover her hot face.
If not for experiencing it personally, she would not believe that Alex was actually such a meticulous man.
Mike would not do something like this at all.
She suddenly felt that the ‘Alex’ that her mother spoke of was the kind of man who would be considerate in life. What she said also seemed to make sense.
There was an unread message on the phone. She took it over and found that the balance in WeChat and Alipay account had increased by more than two hundred thousand.
She then looked at the user who transferred the account. It was Alex’s number.
She was confused when he suddenly gave her so much money. She quickly dialed his number,
Alex had already arrived at the Hai City airport. When he saw her number, a smile appeared o n his lips. “You won’t sleep for a while longer?”
His magnetic and deep voice was transmitted through the electrical waves. It was even more intense than when he had asked her to call him by his name last night. Two red clouds flew u pon Jessie’s cheeks. From time to time, her fingers would grab a corner of the blanket, and her voice became soft. “I am already the last person to wake up at home. Have you not boarded the plane yet?”
“There are still ten minutes.” He paused and lowered his voice even more. “You called me as soon as you woke up. We just separated and you miss me?”
When he said such nauseating words, it actually did not make people feel disgusted at all. Instead, it even evoked traces of palpitations in her heart.
“You’re talking nonsense!” She did not know how tempting her voice was at this moment.
Alex’s throat tightened and his voice became hoarse. “Take good care of the child at home. Don’t run around when you have nothing to do, understand?”
Jessie’s bright eyes lit up. “I’m with the children. Where can I run to? Why did you transfer so much money to me? I am not short of money.”
“Nothing much. I just want to give it to you.” Alex’s tone was relaxed.
Only then did Jessie feel that although she had been trying hard to ignore his background and background, treating him as an ordinary man and getting along with him equally, the gap between them would still be revealed everywhere.
When there were more than 2 million in the card, she had thought that she could barely be considered a rich person. But at this moment, she realized that it was just a rich person in her mind.
Even if she had more than two million in her card right now, she would only be like a miser. Unless it was absolutely necessary, she would not transfer the money in her card out. She definitely would not transfer two hundred thousand so casually.
“It’s about time.” Alex took off his sunglasses and stuffed them into the outer layer of his suitcase. “Since I’m not there. Help me show the three elders respect for their filial piety and buy what they like. It’s rare for them to spend time at home, so don’t worry about the money.”
He was considerate. With one sentence, he successfully dispelled all of Jessie’s melancholy. She put the warm back of her hand on her hot face and smiled. “I understand.”
When she said this, her soft and lovely voice sounded like the sound of the rain in Jiangnan. I t was pleasant and touching.
If it wasn’t for the matters of the Mumen Group, he really wanted to return to that small town and enter her soft body before coming out.
It was already afternoon when Alex arrived in R City.
Rick took his suitcase and carefully said, “The Elder and Old Madam knew you were coming back today. They told you to make a trip to old residence after getting off the plane.”
Alex snorted. “What use do I have for you?”
Rick wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
On one side was boss, and on the other side was boss’s father and mother. As an assistant, what could he do? He was also in despair.
As soon as he finished speaking, Grandma Restall called. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Alex looked coldly at Rick again. – Rick’s neck shrank and a chill ran down his spine.
Alex pressed the answer button.
Grandma Restall urged him from the other side, “Where are you? We are all waiting for you to come back for lunch. Ask Rick to drive faster.”
“I will go back now.”
“… Hurry up!”
When the car reached Laurent Residence, Rick did not dare to stay any longer with him. He took the initiative to ask, “I will go to the company to prepare for the afternoon meeting.” Alex nodded. There were
two cars parked at the entrance of old residence. One was the Audi commonly used by Grandpa Rudolf, and the other was the dark blue BMW SUV.
Looking at the car, Alex’s face darkened.
Grandma Restall had just heard the sound of the car when she ran out of the house. When she saw Alex alone, she held the tassel on her shoulder and looked behind him. “You alone? Where are Felix and Fia?”
“They stayed in Hai City for the holidays.” Alex did not hide anything from them when he thought about how they had looked for Rick and knew that they were in Hai City
Grandma Restall did not get angry either. She approached him with a smile. “Tell Mom the
truth. Are you guys at that Miss Jessie’s house? When are you going to bring her home for us t o take a look?”
“After the middle of autumn.”
Grandma Restall did not expect him to answer so readily and became even more excited. “So you really went to her house? Did her family agree to it? What kind of girl is she? How old is she?”
“You’ll know when she comes.” Alex strode into the room.
Grandma Restall pulled his sleeve and said, “I will not ask anymore. I will see for myself. Oh right, Valent is here. She is waiting for you at home.”
“She is looking for me for something?”
“She didn’t say anything when we asked her. Let’s go in and eat first. You can ask her after you finish eating.” After a pause, Grandma Restall continued to speak with some sadness.” It’s rare for her to come back. She never ask our help when she has something to do. And she i s closer to you. Later on, you will
listen to all of her matters first. If you don’t have time, you can leave it to us. We’ll do it for her in your name, got it?”
Alex took a step forward and turned to look at the dark blue SUV outside. A few seconds later, he answered, “Alright, I will ask her first.”
“Let’s go into the room and eat.”
Alex’s sister, Amanda, was twelve years older than him. The thing that left the deepest impression on him was her bright and wanton smile. There was nothing in this world that she did not dare to try. Until now, she was still the most unrestrained and unruly person that Alex knew.
That year, when she left with Shawn, Alex who had gradually begun to shoulder the responsibility of Mumen Group, really envied her.
Later on, he often thought that if he knew that their parting was forever, he would still only
means to stop her.
Laurent Residence had always kept a room for Fifi, even though she could count the number o ftimes she stayed in it with one hand.
Grandpa Rudolf and Grandma Restall held a deep grudge against Shawn. They had personally said that they did not want to see that man again in this life.
Shawn also felt guilty in his heart. He also didn’t know how to comfort the two old men. After Amanda died, he took his daughter and disappeared for many years. Later on, he might have realized something. A piece of work named Remembrance re-appeared in the eyes of the public, and it was during the Spring Festival when Fifi was in her teens. He sent her to the entrance of Laurent Residence and let her spend the New Year with her grandfather and grandmother. She was only picked up when school started.
At that time, Grandpa Rudolf and Grandma Restall both wanted Fifi to stay by their side for a long time, but Fifi refused. She had the talent of her father to draw, and she loved drawing since she was young. She wanted to follow her father, but she was very stubborn, so they had t o agree.
Moreover, Shawn had gradually become famous in the painting world at that time, and his living expenses were no longer a problem. Grandpa Rudolf and Alex had secretly invested in him, and Shawn and Fifi had settled down in X City, which was famous for its culture in the Ancient Capital. Only then did Grandpa Rudolf and Grandma Restall feel slightly relieved
However, apart from meeting their granddaughter occasionally, they still treated Shawn with indifference and hatred
