Ecstacy of the Heart
Chapter 33 A Couple in Name
Allison was dumbfounded upon hearing the word ‘wife’, and felt it ridiculous soon.
She was indeed Alexander’s wife, but was just a wife a name. Who the heck was Elaine Hunter? She had been kept in dark of her existence from the very beginning.
Allison felt even more upset when she thought of this. Plus her temperament as she just got up from the bed, she suddenly got a nerve. She shifted her gaze and murmured, “Just a couple in name…”
As Alexander was sitting beside the bed, he heard it clearly although her voice was tiny. He frowned and tightened his grip of her hand, “Who said we’re just a couple in name?”
They done everything what should be done between the husband and wife. How could they be regarded as a couple in name?
Allison retorted in a fit of pique, “I said it.”
But when she was speaking, she didn’t dare to look into his eyes. Suddenly, he pinched her jaw and turned her head aside, and therefore she saw his perfect handsome face.
Although Allison got chances to get along with Alexander in usual times, it was the first time for her to look into his eyes in such a close distance. Moreover, they were all sober now. She was flustered at the moment and her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
“You…”
Alexander interrupted her, “We’ve done everything that should be done between the husband and wife. Why shouldn’t we be regarded as a real couple?”
Allison’s heart skipped one beat and her face flushed as she couldn’t help recalling the sex they had in the presidential suite of International Hotel of J City last time.
It seemed that… It was indeed true. Allison bit her lip as she couldn’t find an argument to retort it. Her face was red, maybe because she was shy or because she was angered. Panicked, she pushed away Alexander’s hand and shouted in anger, “I don’t want to come back! I won’t come back tonight!”
Before she could finish the words, Alexander suddenly stood up. Allison felt herself enveloped by a dark shadow and looked over. She hadn’t expected that the man would bend over.
Before she could react, he carried her up effortlessly and turned around.
She struggled. But Alexander seemed to have expected her tricks. He suddenly leaned over and whisper to her ear, “It you don’t come back with me, I’ll stay here tonight. Mom and Dad won’t mind me staying here. Even if your bed is small, there’ll be enough room if we squeeze up a little.”
Allison was dumbfounded at the moment, and then she felt so shy that she couldn’t raise her head.
