Alexander glanced at Lily as he put down his coffee. “You‘re so diligent today. Is there something you
want to ask me?”
Lily was stunned as she rolled her eyes. “Of course not! I‘ve been moody recently, and it‘s been hard
on you! You‘ve even brought a lot of your work home because of me. So, I should treat you to
something nice,” she said sincerely.
Alexander beamed when he heard this. “Is that so?”
Then his gaze slowly moved down from her face to her slender neck, her long arms, and then to her
unclenched wrist, which fell naturally at her sides. Alexander stretched a finger and gently reached into
Lily‘s palm before tickling it.
Lily immediately pulled her hand back and shot him a glare.” What are you doing?!“.
“To be honest...” Alexander continued unhurriedly, “There are many ways to treat me that don‘t require
you to buy me anything.”
Lily kept quiet and gulped as she stared at his face.
Although Alexander was nimble, Lily could have easily avoided his grasp. However, in addition to how
sudden it was, she did not want to fight back as she allowed him to pull her.
She remained calm even when he hovered over her like that. Lily looked at Alexander with widened
eyes and said, “I‘ll do anything you want me to.” In a blink of an eye, Alexander leaned down and
kissed Lily passionately as his hand clasped around hers.
‘My beloved wife!‘ Alexander thought to himself.
The two had not been intimate for a long time as they were preoccupied with work and did not have the
mood to do anything “Alex...”
“Yeah?”
“Let‘s get married,” Lily said.
Alexander was not quick to reply as he raised his head to look at her.
Lily licked her lips and quickly added, “I mean, let‘s just host a wedding.” She wanted to skip any
engagement parties and jump straight into a wedding. She wanted to tell the world they were together.
Seeing that Alexander did not respond, Lily began to feel hesitant. “Do you not want to?”
At that moment, Alexander lowered his head and nibbled her earlobe before whispering, “You fool, why
would you say that?
