The CEO’s Surrogate Wife

Alex sits down all spaced out the moment he gets home.

Miya wants to comfort him but she knows that she there is nothing that she can do right now. She also doesn’t know what’s the right thing to do to make Alex relax and be less tense. What’s most important right now is to figure out what to do about Aaron’s funeral.

But, are they really not letting Aileen know about any of this? If she knows, she will be hiding somewhere in a corner, crying her heart out.

Alex is rubbing his temple with his hands the whole time, he looks very upset. Miya can feel how agonizing it is just standing there looking at him, as his body is sending out intense distress signals.

Miya cannot bear the sight of seeing Alex like that. She rushes up to him and hugs him from behind, “Don’t be like that. I know you are in tremendous pain, but there is still plenty of stuff that we need to take care off. You cannot collapse here.”

Alex turns around after listening to her, he hugs her back in an instant. He holds her as tight as he can as if he is getting some relief from her hugs.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t make you worry about me. Don’t worry, I was just thinking about some stuff. I won’t do anything stupid.” Alex gently touches Miya’s forehead with his hand.

Miya suddenly realizes that Alex’s hand is bleeding. The scene of him hitting the wall out of anger flashed through her mind, he hurt his hand just now.

Miya grabs Alex’s hand nervously, “Your hand is hurt.”

How can she forget something like that?
