Marry A Hidden Billionaire By Rosalind Stevenson

Chapter 48

“You know each other?” Daniel was slightly surprised.

As he walked over and saw Alice, Larry thought, “This is bad. He has met Mrs. Kaur before!”

When chaperoning Josh last time, he had even had a cup of coffee offered by Mrs. Kaur.

What should he do now?

At that moment, Larry felt regret. He should not have so passionately asked Dax to give him a chance to get in Mrs.

Kaur’s good graces.

He risked giving away Mr. Kaur’s real identity at any moment.

Alice looked at Larry and then nodded. “Yeah, we were introduced earlier when he brought Josh to our crew. He’s the

assistant to your Mr. Kaur.”

“Mhm, it’s hard to call a cab at this hour, and he was nearby, so I asked him to come,” Daniel explained calmly and

composedly.

Upon hearing the explanation, Larry quickly nodded and smiled. “Yes, I’m good friends with Mr…. Daniel back in the

company, so when he asks for help, how can I refuse?”

Alice did not question what Larry said and smiled. “Thank you! And sorry to trouble you tonight.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“Oh, it’s no trouble! No trouble at all!” Larry secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness Mrs. Kaur was not suspicious; otherwise, he would have screwed up majorly today. “Miss Doyle, let me help you carry your stuff.” As he said so, Larry helped Alice to carry the boxes of king crabs into the car. After reaching home, Alice initially wanted to ask Larry to stay for dinner, but Larry noticed the mildly suppressive vibes given off by his CEO and immediately fled the scene with well-oiled strides. Alice did a check on the condition of the king crabs and, while messaging William, asked Daniel, “Shall we eat the king crabs tonight? It’ll take half an hour if I start preparing them now.” Daniel expressionlessly carried Benny to the latter’s room and coldly replied, “Let’s do that

tomorrow. It’s late now.” Alice could feel that Daniel was in a bad mood, but did not want to discuss it with him in front of the children, so she said, “Alright, I’ll get the meds. Let’s change Benny’s dressing first, and let them sleep early.” “Mhm.” Daniel nodded. From then on, till William came to take the king crabs, the couple did not have much conversation with each other. The children, too, felt their dad’s suppressive vibes, so they snuggled up to Alice as she finished telling them a bedtime story, and then they lay down on their beds and went to sleep as good kids would. At 10:30 p.m., Alice was overcome with hunger, so she got up and went to the kitchen to look for some noodles and a small pot to cook and enjoy while sitting on the balcony. As she was finishing the meal, she felt a sudden craving to smoke, so while leaning back in the chair on the balcony, she lit a cigarette and slowly puffed a smoke ring. Her smoking mannerism was not obscene at all but had a kind of exquisite beauty; instead, she appeared like a fairy ready to capture the souls of those who saw her, especially under the misty moonlight. Halfway through the cigarette, she suddenly saw Daniel’s hands on the doorframe and his cold gaze upon her. “You’re smoking?” Alice absent-mindedly snuffed out the cigarette, then closed the lid on the box containing the noodle ingredients and smiled awkwardly. “Everyone in showbiz knows how to smoke. I’m just dabbling a little.” Daniel’s expression became more serious. “Josh Kaur taught you?” He knew that fella liked to get his friends to smoke with him. Chilled by Daniel’s ice-cold gaze, Alice felt she should have swallowed the cigarette. “That, um… he’s my senior in showbiz. He has indeed taught me many things.” Well, the smoking thing could indeed be attributed to Josh’s influence when they were playing

games. Of course, the main reason was that one of her past roles required it, so she had to learn. Daniel’s expression turned even more sour. “You’re a married woman.” 1/2 11:48 Chapter 48 Alice nodded. “Mhm, I know…” No more smoking in front of him from now on. As if seeing what she was thinking, Daniel frowned. “Your smoking will affect the kids!” “Huh? Oh…” Alice bit her lip and made the hard decision. “I’ll quit smoking. I’ll quit right away!” “Not just quit smoking.” Keeping his gaze on her again, Daniel said in an even colder tone, “You shouldn’t be in a single man’s home!” Send Gift Comment 2 11:48
