“Are you looking for Natasha?” asked Chloe.

Chloe stood before Alexei, who had emerged from the room with Natasha’s coat.

Alexei glanced at her, standing nonchalantly with the coat draped over his arm, saying nothing, with hidden impatience in his eyes.

‘I just want to take Natasha on a vacation. I’m in a rare good mood and don’t want any trouble, yet there are always insensitive people,‘ thought Alexei.

His indifference saddened Chloe. “You love her that much? I thought you’d never fall in love with anyone,” said Chloe.

It was the belief that kept Chloe from feeling too much sadness, even when she had to distance herself from him due to family matters. She knew she couldn’t have him, but she also believed no other woman in this world would.

Alexei was meant to be admired, standing on a pedestal.

Love and romance were things he would never get involved with.

However, Natasha’s presence shattered that perception. Chloe saw him in love, more alive than ever before.

Knowing that he could love made Chloe even more resentful.

If she had been more resolute when confronting her family, approached Alexei sooner, and openly confessed her secret crush, would their story have been different?

Alexei raised an eyebrow. “What? Is it not obvious that I like Natasha?”

Chloe’s face paled.

Alexei impatiently walked around her. “Alright, move aside.”

‘Natasha is still out in the wind. What if she gets sick from staying out longer? It wouldn’t be enough to compensate even if Chloe died,‘ thought Alexei.
