Capture Her Heart After Marriage

Ignoring her question, Chaim walked off, not looking back.

Not knowing what to do, Alexia shrunk back as she followed him.

Seeing Chaim leading Alexia in, Nathaniel put down his phone and teased. “Oh, the hero comes back with his damsel in tow.”

Chaim didn’t even glance at him as he walked to the sofa.

Nathaniel didn’t care he was being ignored, instead smiling and waving at Alexia. “Sister, we meet again.”

Alexia nodded slightly, “Hello.”

“What’s wrong with you, sister?” Nathaniel asked knowingly as he discovered her mess.

“I…” Alexia hesitated with a little embarrassment.

It was too humiliating for her to tell Nathaniel what happened.

“Enough.” Chaim pointed at the door and turned to Nathaniel. “Leave us.”

“Fine, fine, I’ll leave. I won’t disturb the loving couple.” Nathaniel shrugged as he got up and stepped out of the lounge.

As he left, Nathaniel saw Assistant Chiao was guarding the door. He rolled his eyes and put an arm around Assistant Chiao’s shoulder. “Wood, if I remember correctly, people will be dancing later, right?”

“Yes. Why are you asking?” Assistant Chiao raised an eyebrow, foreboding inexplicably arising in his heart.

“Nothing, just a fun game I suddenly thought of.” Nathaniel looked at the door of the lounge and gave a calculated smile.

In the lounge, Chaim knocked on the coffee table, “Come here.”

“Me?” Alexia asked, pointing at herself.

“Is there anyone else here?”

“Uh…” Alexia smiled awkwardly and she walked over to him.

“Change into these.” Chaim nodded toward the large pile of gift boxes on the coffee table.
