Chapter 437 An Unnecessary Explanation

It was already late at night, but Alexander’s assistant still hadn’t arrived.

Since it was a stormy night on top of being the weekend, there were many reports of accidents in Melrose City. It was perfectly normal to be caught in the traffic congestion, so it was nothing strange if Eric was late.

Even after Courtney had cleaned the cutleries, the smell of fried eggs was still in the apartment.

The flower tea in front of Alexander had been swapped for a glass of warm milk.

As Courtney lowered her head to wash the dishes with the tap flowing, she wore a calm expression but her feelings had resembled the weather instead.

Time wasn’t able to make her forget him. She still loved and hated the man in front of her and no matter how much time had passed, those feelings would still be there regardless.

There weren’t any movements in the living room for a while. After she had done the dishes, she froze when she saw Alexander resting on the couch.

She initially wanted to wake him up, but after approaching him, she saw his exhaustion. Even though he was asleep, there was still a deep frown on his face as it seemed like he couldn’t relax. Compared to the Alexander of five years before, he seemed to have more worries now.

He had finished all the milk, leaving behind just the empty glass on the coffee table.

 

Courtney stood there for a while and took a nearby blanket. Just as she was about to cover him with the blanket, her doorbell rang.

Ding dong!

Her fingers froze as the man on the couch immediately opened his eyes.

As their gazes met, there was an inexplicable atmosphere in the living room.

Courtney quickly rose to her full height, but Alexander grabbed her elbow, which made her stumble before she fell into his sturdy chest.
