One Night Surprise

Chapter 380 Does He Still Have a Heart

As a raging fire was lit in Alexander’s eyes, he clenched his fist so hard it cracked.

“You don’t need to trick me now. After all, what happened six years ago has happened, so don’t play the victim here and try to crucify me. All I want to know is, have you been deceiving me all along ever since you came back?”

While saying this, he was trying hard to suppress his anger. From the start, he was only furious because of one thing: If it weren’t for the kids, how genuine would she still be to him?

Not wanting to give the other an inch in this argument, the two stared at each other.

As her clear eyes slowly reddened, she found Alexander’s words utterly ridiculous.

After arguing for so long, their relationship was in tatters. If he really believed her words, he would have asked her this as soon as he found out the truth. Instead, he blamed everything on her unreasonably. What is there left to be asked when things have already progressed to this point?

“Even if I said that’s not true, it would be a waste of words since you wouldn’t believe me.”

Calming down, Courtney looked defeated and tired. “We are all adults, Alexander. We’ve already argued so much. Please, for the sake of the kids, calm down and talk with me. What do you really want?”

The words made the burning gaze in Alexander’s eyes slowly cool down. After a while, he laughed with a hint of self deprecation in his words. “Really? You’d give me whatever I demand as long as I don’t fight for our daughter’s custody?”

Frowning, Courtney said, “State your terms.”

Then, Alexander stepped on the broken porcelain, making a piercing sound that rang across the quiet study. “I’m a man who wants to be treated fairly. After I’ve been deceived for so long, I should be compensated in kind. After that, you can have your daughter back.”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you really not understand?” With eyes full of belittlement, Alexander observed her from head to toe. “What else is there to be demanded between a man and a woman? Except for our body’s compatibility—which makes me quite satisfied, by the way—do you think you have anything else of value that I want?”

When she heard this, Courtney could only feel her body going cold.

She only thought that his anger was temporary. Anyone would know that she had her reason for lying to him for so long if they had just thought rationally. But time and time again, he humiliated her, and he even said such words now.
