Could he be hinting that his first love is returning, and I should step aside?

Alexander frowned as rage surged through him.

Meanwhile, Selena and Rosalie were rendered speechless.

No, what he was asking was how I, as his wife, should respond Alexander thought, “Calm down, you’d better think this through!

Selena and Rosalie hardly dared to breathe, their emotions fluctuating wildly. Their hearts were pounding anxiously in their chests.

Here’s a stubsion: you don’t love me, then don’t say another word and don’t bother seeing me again.

Alexander felt a surge of frustration.

Here’s another coy response: Tin not divorced yet.”

Alexander revealed a kind smile.

Or perhaps…

Selena and Rosalie thought. “Enough, enough, our hearts can’t take it anymore, sob sob.”

“Honey, have you made up your mind?” Alexander suddenly interrupted Isabella’s wild fantasies.

Upon hearing the term ‘honey, a shiver ran through Isabella. Although she often playfully called Alexander hubby, and he played along, he had seldom a What’s up with him? Why is he suddenly calling me honey? Did he take the wrong pills? Was he stirred up by the news that his er wanted to see him aga Alexander thought, “No, you provoked me!”

Alexander gave Isabella a cold look, noticing her humming a tune carelessly while she sorted through the valuable items she had just confiscated. This He averted his gaze, his face devoid of any expression. With a swift movement, he grabbed the mouse with his left hand and clicked to respond.

He then swiftly typed on the keyboard using only his left hand.

Although he wasn’t left–handed, he was in fact equally adept with both hands. However, he chose to keep this little secret to himself.

“My name is Isabella, Mrs. Quirk. I would prefer if you refrain from meeting my husband again. Please, stop reaching out to him.”

At that moment, Isabella sneezed heavily.

Stepping forward, Alexander draped his own jacket over Isabella, asking, “Are you cold?”

Isabella rubbed her nose. “No, someone must be talking about me. Could it be the band of wives?”

Alexander furrowed his brows.
