Capture Her Heart After Marriage

Chapter 17 What Did You Want

‘Bone marrow?’ Alexia stood there in shock, body frozen.

So the whole reason Chaim moved back and got close to her was for her bone marrow?

Alexia’s head spun and she collapsed. Her eyes glazed and she couldn’t focus on anything as she struggled to breathe. The tray and cups fell to ground with a terrific crash, but Alexia barely heard it.

Chaim’s expression changed immediately at the ruckus. “Who’s out there!”

Realizing what happened, Assistant Chiao glanced at Chaim before hurrying over to open the door.

Alexia was sitting in the doorway, staring at the ground and surrounded by a mess of shattered mugs and hot coffee, her thin shoulders trembling as if she was crying.

“Alex… No, Ms. White, why are you here?” Assistant Chiao asked as he gave her an embarrassed and forced smile.

Alexia ignored Assistant Chiao, instead looking up to stare past him at Chaim sitting at his desk, her pale face stained with tears. The pain in Alexia’s eyes made Chaim feel things he didn’t expect.

“Chiao, leave us!” Chaim ordered, gesturing to Assistant Chiao.

Assistant Chiao was more than happy to oblige and grabbed his briefcase before showing himself out.

Chaim got up from his desk and walked toward Alexia, glancing down at the mess on the ground. “I’m assuming you heard us?”

Alexia dug her nails into her palms as she choked out, “Why? Why do you treat me like this?”

“I’m sorry.” Chaim said, concern flickering in his eyes.

His apology made Alexia feel even worse. She pulled her knees up to her chest and her body wracked with sobs as she let everything out.
