One Night Surprise

Chapter 346 Do You Have 20 Million Dollars?

At that moment, anyone who heard Courtney calling Alexander ‘hubby’ so flirtatiously would get goosebumps. Yet, she batted her eyes at him with an innocent look on her face. “Don’t make things difficult for me, okay?”

All of a sudden, he froze. As he turned to look at her, his eyes were burning with desire. “What did you call me? Say it one more time,” he uttered a husky voice.

“First, promise me that you’ll move out for the time being.”

“Sure,” he replied without hesitation because he knew that stalling worked on her every time; he was already familiar with such situations.

Just when he thought it was over, she changed the topic. “I want ice cream.”

“Now?”

“Yes. Could you get some for me, hubby?” She batted her eyes again.

His heart stirred after hearing her call him ‘hubby’ twice. Right then, he was dying to devour her after seeing how she had learned to torment him this way.

“Go get me some ice cream. I’ll take a bath and wait for you to come back.”

As he thought of her beautiful face after she had taken a bath, his eyes gleamed lustfully. Without demur, he turned and headed to the door. “Wait for me.”

Watching as he left, she smiled complacently before changing the password of the digital door lock. Then, she sent him a text and thought to herself, Dear hubby, I guess you won’t be coming back home tonight. After that, she turned off her phone.

She had to pack her things that night as she would be going to Oreus early in the morning the next day. He would be a nuisance if he stayed.

Meanwhile, he received a text message just as he reached the ground floor. ‘Hubby, I was thinking, why don’t we start today since you promised that we would live separately before our wedding? I just changed the door lock’s password just in case you give in. I guess you’ll have to drive home tonight. Sorry. I love you!’

Then, a gust of cold wind brushed the back of his neck. The enthusiasm he had just a moment ago was gone.
