Chapter 166 I’m Dispensable
Alexander was trying to imply that the arranged marriage was a decision made by the elders without first going through him. With just a couple of words, he pushed all the blame away from him.
Deliberately trying to make a fuss, Courtney pouted.
“Pfft. With your temperament, don’t tell me that you were just over ten years old; even if you still didn’t know how to talk, as long as you didn’t agree with it, no one could force it on you. The truth is that you fancied your childhood sweetheart.”
“Do you want to hear the truth?”
Alexander’s eyes darkened. The way he looked at Courtney sent her heart stuttering.
Is he really in love with Mikayla?
“It’s not what you think it is.” He flicked her head with a helpless look. She stifled a grunt in response and covered her head discontentedly. “If you want to say something, say it properly. Why are you hitting me?”
Affection surged through Alexander’s cold face. In the few seconds of silence, he seemed to be contemplating the right things to say.
“My dad always wanted a daughter when he was alive, but his wish was never granted. So, for a long time, he treated Mikayla as his own daughter.”
Courtney was slightly startled. This was not the first time Alexander took the initiative and told her about his parents. However, this was the first time he seemed calm talking about them.
“My mom was a painter. Her heart could only hold her dreams. She always went out with her drawing board for months. The fact that she gave birth to me did not impact her usual life. Except for the time she came back and visited me after finishing her drawing, we rarely had the opportunity to meet each other. It had always been like that for many years.”
His charming low voice flowed in the dimly lit room. He sounded so calm that Courtney could not sense any emotion from his voice. It was as if he was telling her something that had nothing to do with himself.
From his words, she finally found out the relationship between Mikayla and the Duncan Family.
