Capture Her Heart After Marriage

Alexia turned toward Chaim’s office and watched Nathaniel leaving with a phone in his hand. His eyes fell on her with interest, and Alexia blushed, unsure of whether he heard anything.

Lynn followed Alexia’s gaze and hurried away as soon as she saw Nathaniel, not wanting to get into trouble or make Alexia’s situation worse.

Nathaniel hesitantly walked into Alexia’s office, giving Lynn a nod as she passed.

“Sister, do I really look so scary? Why did your friend leave as soon as she saw me?”

“Oh, you just misunderstand her.” Alexia felt so guilty that the words tumbled out without a thought. “Maybe it’s because you’re so good-looking and my friend is shy.”

“Really?” Nathaniel’s smile grew at the thought.

Nathaniel came from a distinguished family and heard a lot of flattery over the years. But no one was as straightforward as Alexia. Nathaniel wasn’t sure how to respond to such bluntness.

Seeing his troubled expression, Alexia worried she said the wrong thing and tried to explain herself. “No, no, I was talking nonsense. Mr. Hardy, please don’t mind me.”

After being tortured by the pile of documents all morning, and speaking ill of Chaim with Lynn, Alexia worried Nathaniel would say something. So, she wanted to change the topic as fast as possible.

Unexpectedly, the more she said, the more wrong she was. Alexia and Nathaniel didn’t know each other well enough, so her words were too abrupt.

“It’s okay, I know you’re joking.” Nathaniel smiled. “Sister, you don’t need to be so polite. I’ve known Chaim for so long. You are his wife and my sister.”

“Oh, is that all…”
