115. 11 What Kind of Woman Is His Ex-wife?
After Felix and Fia fell asleep, Jessie quietly got out of bed and wanted to find Nanny Chen or Housekeeper to borrow pajamas to take a bath.
She did not bring anything today and when she was at the coffee shop, she was drenched in sweat. If she did not take a bath, she would not be at ease sleeping next to the children.
She opened the door and smelled the faint smell of tobacco in the air.
She raised her head and saw Alex’s tall and slender body standing by the railing on the second floor. There were fireworks flickering between his fingers.
He had his back to her and was answering the phone. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
He seemed to have sensed that someone was looking at him downstairs. Holding his phone, he turned around and looked downstairs.
The lights in the hall were bright. Jessie saw that he was still answering the phone and did not greet him. She smiled at him and turned around to look for Nanny Chen.
“Where are you going?” Alex’s deep and magnetic voice fell from above.
Jessie turned her head and saw that he had already hung up. She pouted and said, “I did not bring my pajamas. I am going to borrow a set from Nanny Chen.”
“Come up.” Alex extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray and turned around to enter the room.
He wanted her to move back to Mountain and River Residence, so naturally he didn’t want her to
stay in the guest room or the children’s room.
Jessie heard him asking her to go up, but she did not hesitate anymore. She went up the spiral staircase to the second floor and pushed open the door to the room he just entered.
This was the first time she came to Mountain and River Residence. This was the master bedroom that he lived in. It was at least several times bigger than the children’s room just now. The man in the room was full of vigor. It was so simple and monotonous that it did not look like a child’s father’s room. It was more like a bachelor’s style.
The wall was monotonous, and because of this, the marks of the nails on the bedside wall appeared especially abrupt.
She could clearly see that there was a large picture hung there.
This kind of place, this kind of area, Jessie naturally thought of wedding photos.
She fixed her gaze there, as if she saw him and another woman snuggling together sweetly.
Although she shouldn’t care about this, when she thought about it, she still couldn’t help but be curious. What kind of woman was his ex-wife?
“Go wash up first. I’ll go to the study to read the email.” Alex told her the location of the bathroom, then he went to the study next door.
“Oh, okay.” Jessie put away her emotions and went to his closet to get the clothes.
shirts in the cabinet beside her.
She paused for a few seconds and hung the casual clothes back up. Her fingers swept across the neatly arranged shirt and picked out a white shirt from the middle.
In the bathroom. There was only the men’s bath supplies. There was only one toothbrush.
She looked around before finding a new spare toothbrush under the cabinet.
She didn’t find another towel, but used Alex’s towel.
After she finished washing, she put on the white shirt and faced the mirror. She put her long hair down and patted her red cheeks with her hand. After taking a deep breath, she gathered her courage and walked out.
There was no one in the bedroom.
She thought that Alex was still in the study and had not returned. Her nervous heart immediately relaxed.
Just as she was about to go to the wardrobe to get some casual clothes and change, Alex’s low magnetic voice came from the row of wardrobe behind, “You finished washing?”
Jessie was shocked.
Alex had already walked out from behind. When he saw her, his black eyes quietly fixed on the shirt on her body.
The courage that Jessie had mustered earlier was long gone.
At this moment, her face had turned red like a ripe persimmon.
She subconsciously reached out and wanted to cover it.
But she covered the top and couldn’t cover the bottom.
She was wearing a man’s shirt, which made her look as if she was naked.
Under the shirt, her long legs were well-proportioned and fair like jade.
She was in a panic, but Alex was calm as usual. He said calmly, “Go to sleep.”
Alex took his pajamas to wash up. Jessie immediately felt that her breathing had become smooth all of a sudden.
He had already seen her appearance. If she went to change into casual clothes again, it would seem a little awkward. She did not want to change and quickly ran to the bed. She lifted the blanket and laid down.
The sound of flowing water came from the bathroom.
The heat on Jessie’s face that had just calmed down a little rose again.
Not long after, Alex walked out in his dark grey pajamas.
Jessie did not want him to think that she was waiting for him on the bed. When she heard his footsteps, she quickly closed her eyes.
Alex sat on the other side of the bed and didn’t lie down. He left a lamp on the bed and took a book to read.
It was not the first time that the two of them slept in the same bed. Jessie still felt nervous.
There was only the sound of two people’s breathing in the spacious room and the occasional sound of Alex flipping a book.
She was looking in his direction. She narrowed her eyes and saw that he was reading a famous biographies. He seemed to have been reading for some time and had already read two-thirds of it.
She was not interested in this kind of book. She only took a few glances before her gaze shifted to the man’s quiet face.
The lamp’s light just happened to shine on the book, but the light on Alex’s side was a little dim. His long eyelashes reflected a circle of shadows below.
This was the first time Jessie saw a man’s eyelashes that could be so long and thick. It made her want to raise her hand to touch it.
She looked at it and gradually felt sleepy.
When she was about to fall asleep, she felt a warm body sticking to her body.
Alex held her with his big hand.
Jessie’s eyelashes trembled.
She could not help but open her eyes and pretend to be woken up by him. She saw that there was only a little warm yellow light left in the bedroom.
Alex’s deep black eyes met her opened apricot eyes. He didn’t say anything and lowered his head t o kiss her lips.
Jessie could not help but reach out and hug his neck.
Maybe because this was his house, Jessie felt an unprecedented nervousness and excitement.
The main bedroom did not turn on the air conditioner, but the temperature was still very high. Not long after. The blanket was also kicked to the end of the bed.
Alex held her with his big hand, his voice low and hoarse and charming, “You only wore my shirt?”
Jessie’s face was so red that it was dripping blood. “I didn’t bring any clothes over.”
He smiled and continued to kiss her.
When the spring weather in the bedroom was warm, a phone rang.
It was Alex’s phone. It was spinning slowly on the bedside table due to the vibration.
Jessie woke up from her shock. She stretched out her hand to help him get his phone.
Alex took her hand back and let her wrap around his neck. He left the phone ringing there and kissed her again.
“Your phone is ringing.” Jessie had just said a few words when the remaining sound was drowned by his kiss.
Alex did not say anything and focused on her blushing face.
The person who called did not seem to want to give up and dialed again and again.
The phone kept ringing and vibrating.
Jessie could no longer be wholeheartedly bothered. As she dealt with it, she thought about whether the person on the phone had something important to discuss with Alex.
Alex felt that she was distracted, and the color in his eyes became deeper.
Everything in front of her eyes became intertwined, and she had no choice but to hug his neck tightly again.
In the bedroom, other than the ringing of cell phones, there were also various sounds of men and women together.
Finally, the cell phone calmed down, and the ringtone also disappeared without a trace.
Jessie’s fingers were tightly wrapped around his short, sweaty hair.
He bit her shoulder with more force than before.
Jessie did not have any strength left and her face had a strange paleness due to excessive exercise.
Everything calmed down. He kissed her lips and his voice was hoarse and magnetic. “That time when we went to your apartment, you fed the children breakfast. Do you know what I was thinking at that time?”
Jessie was still immersed in the pleasure just now and could not come back to her senses. She could not think of his problem at all.
Alex’s thin lips moved closer to her ear again. “At that time, I was thinking of making you cry like this.”
His words made Jessie’s ears turn red.
She remembered that the day she accompanied the children to breakfast, he sat across from her. She vaguely remembered that his eyes were terrifyingly deep.
At that time, she thought that he cared about how close she was to the children and blamed her for deliberately trying to please his children. However, she never thought that he was actually
thinking about this.
When she thought of this, she became even more embarrassed. She was just about to reach out and push him away.
He had already backed away, and his large hand carried her up.
He let her lie on the pillow. His voice was almost hoarse as he said, “Continue.”
Jessie did not have the strength to refute him.
The phone, which had been quiet for a while, suddenly rang again.
Jessie, who was about to faint, regained her senses and turned her head to look at the phone.
Alex, who was behind her, had already reached out to pick up the phone.
Jessie subconsciously held her breath.
Alex looked at the call and the expression on his handsome face twisted a little.
He had just pressed the button to answer when a gentle female voice came from the other side. “I called you a lot earlier but you did not pick up. Are you busy? Did I disturb you?”
Jessie could only vaguely hear a woman’s voice but could not hear what she said.
She thought it was his company’s matter and did not pay attention to it anymore.
Although he only answered the phone and no one else could see it, she still felt that it was embarrassing to answer the phone in such a state. She prepared to walk to the side.
Alex held her shoulder with one hand and made her unable to move. His voice was so calm that n o one knew that he was on her at the moment. “Yes, it’s not convenient. What do you want?”
Jessie heard his serious and calm tone and could not help but feel embarrassed. She could only bury her red face into the pillow.
“I am now in R City Airport. Grandfather and Grandmother said that Felix and Fia did not go to North City during the Mid-Autumn Festival. They missed the children and asked me to come and see the children. I brought them some cake that Grandmother made personally. If you are busy, I will take a taxi to Mountain and River Residence.”
Alex held Jessie’s big hand on her shoulder a little harder. “Felix and Fia are now in old residence. I will send someone to pick you up at the airport.”
“I see. Then I won’t bother you anymore. I will find a hotel near the airport and spend the night there. I will go to Mountain and River Residence to find you tomorrow.”
He hung up the phone. Jessie heard him say Felix and Fia just now. She could not help but ask,” Who is it?”
