After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen

Chapter 213 Xander Gave the Candy Factory to Isabel Samuel was shocked by Xander's words.

His older brother was actually planning to wash Isabel's clothes himself? He'd never once done his own laundry in his entire life! And to make matters worse, the clothes he was holding weren't just any clothes-they were underwear. Was he really serious? Didn't he find it gross?

As Samuel stood there in shock, he watched Xander actually start scrubbing it.

The sight hit Samuel like a wave, making him question both his life and the world itself.

After a brief moment of disbelief, Samuel turned and walked out of the villa, needing to get some fresh air to clear his head.

When Isabel woke up, she noticed that the clothes in the bathroom were gone.

"That's strange. Did someone break in?"

Even if a thief had come, it was hard to imagine they'd steal her clothes, especially dirty ones.

Could it be that the thief had such a peculiar taste?

No way...

As Isabel was lost in her thoughts, Xander's voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"What's wrong?"

Isabel turned to face him. "My clothes-"

"I took them to wash."

Huh?

Isabel instinctively opened her mouth slightly, staring at Xander with wide, disbelieving eyes.

"Y-You took and washed them?"

She stuttered as she spoke.

"Yeah, I washed them myself," Xander replied nonchalantly.

Isabel's mouth fell open even wider, and her mind couldn't help but picture the image of the man holding her underwear, rubbing it.

The worst part was there was blood on them.

"Y-You don't think it's dirty?" Isabel blurted out the question Samuel had been too stunned to ask.

"It's yours, how could I think it's dirty?" Xander replied, his gaze deliberately lingering on Isabel as he spoke. "From now on, I'll wash all your clothes." Isabel was speechless.

Xander pulled a package of sanitary pads from his pocket, something he had just bought for Isabel at the store.

"We ran out at home, so I picked these up for you."
