Capture Her Heart After Marriage

Chapter 11 Do You Know Him Well

“No, I don’t…”

Alexia blushed at being called “sister-in-law” and quickly regained her footing. “Please, don’t call me that.”

The person in question was Chaim’s best friend, Nathaniel Hardy.

Alexia looked around nervously and relaxed a bit once she was sure no one else was there.

Alexia’s expression amused Nathaniel. He knew a little about Alexia’s character but was certain she wasn’t the type Chaim would’ve picked on his own. Chaim would never have married her if Grandpa Lancaster hadn’t insisted.

“Alexia, what are you doing just standing there?” Chaim called from inside the office, his tone cold and annoyed.

Chaim had already hinted once for her to get back to work, but she didn’t seem to care enough to listen. Even though Chaim had spent the last three years away, Alexia should know better than to act so ambiguous around others. They were still married, after all.

“No, nothing!” Alexia regained herself quickly and glanced apologetically at Nathaniel as she passed, hurriedly handing the documents to Chaim. “Mr. Lancaster, I’ve sorted all the documents you asked for. Please check them. If there is nothing else, I’ll be heading back to my desk.”
