At night, when Kate heard the news that Alex demanded a three hundred million compensation for her, she felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart.

The only thing that annoyed her was the fact that her virginity was taken by that piece of trash named Alex.

It was a traumatic experience for her, and she couldn’t forgive him for that.

She took five days off to travel back to Lumenopolis, somewhere she was familiar with where she would feel better.

After knocking off, Alex fetched his son from school. While he cooked dinner and accompanied his son to do his homework, Heather was sitting at a reserved table at Happy Living,

However, she didn’t see the chairman even though she waited until eight o’clock.

At first, she didn’t message the him as she thought that he was still working.

When the waitress came by her table for the fifth time to ask if they could start serving food, she finally took the courage to message the chairman and ask him the time of his arrival.

Heather felt nervous as she was already seeing another man before divorcing Alex.

She stared at her phone for another half an hour, but the chairman didn’t reply.

When Heather saw that it was already half–past eight, she started panicking. After hesitating for some time, she finally called the chairman.

At that moment, Alex was teaching Stanley to read when his other phone rang. He recognized Heather’s phone number immediately and smirked as he picked it up.

“Chairman, are you on the way?” Heather probed.

Smiling mockingly, Alex put up a hoarse voice. “Oh! I’m so sorry. I completely forget about our appointment. I’m afraid we have to cancel this today since I’ve already reached home.”

There was no way Alex would attend that date today since he had intended to ditch Heather from the

start.

“Oh? I see. Then we shall meet next time.” Although Heather was displeased, she still tried her best to sound cheery.

“Sure. I have something to do now. I’ll hang up first.”

Heather felt dejected when the ‘chairman‘ hung up on her.

Although she made the first move to ask a man out and was stood up by him, she didn’t dare to get mad at the man. Instead, she found herself finding excuses for him. How ironic! All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

In the end, she asked the waitress to serve dinner.

ter finishing a whole bottle of wine by herself, she was so drunk that she had no choice but to call Alex

to fetch her home.

Alex took a cab to Happy Living. Upon arriving, he saw Heather sleeping soundly in the passenger seat of

her car.

He knocked on the window for quite a while before she woke up and opened the door for him.

On the way home, Alex glanced at Heather and asked casually, “Why did you drink so much?”

Heather didn’t even open her eyes when she lied, “I had dinner with a client.”

Alex smirked knowingly and said nothing more.

When they reached home, Alex carried her upstairs and placed her on the bed. He was about to leas

when she suddenly hugged him tightly.

Alex was startled for a moment before he eventually reached for her hand and took it off him. “You should rest.”

“Please don’t leave me… We haven’t made love to each other in such a long time… Do you really want us to sleep separately forever?”
