Capture Her Heart After Marriage

Five, five million!

Alexia looked up in shock. Why five million? Her brother only owed less than a million!

“Chaim, you… Oh, I’ve always said how much of a blessing it is for our Aily to marry you!”

Mrs. White’s smile grew wider. She’d known for a long while that a rich son-in-law would help them one day.

“Auntie, this really isn’t anything to get flustered about. Shouldn’t you ask why Aily was in the hospital?” he coldly reminded her in a heavy tone.

“This, this…” Mrs. White laughed embarrassedly, “I have asked, Aily just has an upset stomach. This is a common occurrence for her. As long as she eats on time and takes medicine, it will be fine.”

Alexia stood beside Chaim without words. Since she was little, her parents always preferred her younger brother and cared little for her. After so many years, she was used to it, and it didn’t bother her much anymore.

“Auntie, I hope you know frequent stomachache is not a good thing,” he said while checking his wristwatch, “There are other things I have to do. Auntie, I’ll leave first. My assistant will send the check here later. Let’s go.”

Before Alexia could react, Chaim grabbed her wrist in a strong but gentle way. He guided Alexia out of the house and toward the car without another word.

“Chaim, why did you give my mom so much money?”

Alexia had the courage to ask the question once they were outside away from the house.

‘Why?’ Was it because he cared about her, or was he used to measuring others with money?

“Nothing, it’s not important.”
