Chapter 91
Seeing him starting to lead her into a trap, Lila quickly reminded him, "I'm learning to drive so I can take you to and from work."
Alexander didn't take the bait, cutting straight to the point, "And also to make money."
She had nothing to say.
Lila lowered her eyes, "Then what kind of compensation do you want?"
As soon as the words left her mouth, he suddenly turned around and walked toward her with an extremely aggressive, domineering stride.
Lila instinctively stepped back, tilting her head up to look at him, "What are you doing?"
Alexander said nothing.
However, he walked past the doorway into her room and closed the door behind him.
Lila immediately sensed trouble and started trying to get rid of him, "It's so late, you... you should go back to your room and rest. If you really need compensation, we can discuss it in detail tomorrow."
"Some things are better discussed at night."
"But—"
She only got two words out before Alexander interrupted her, "Lila, you keep saying you're my legal wife, but you've never fulfilled your duties as a wife. I also told you at the company today to keep me company tonight. What, now that it's nighttime, you want to back out?"
"But we didn't buy condoms when we went to the Velvet Lounge today, so why don't we do it another day?"
"Not buying them was your business, or—"
He paused, his lips curling into an ambiguous smile, "Didn't you just ask me what compensation I wanted? Maybe I'd like the kind of compensation where you fulfill your duties without using condoms."
Hearing his words, Lila felt her scalp tingle.
Her face turned completely red, and she didn't know whether to speak or stay silent.
The distance between them grew smaller and smaller. He even reached out to grip her shoulders. Lila instinctively shrank her neck, feeling the air around her becoming thinner and thinner as he kept getting closer.
What should she do?
Lila's mind was in chaos.
At that moment, her chin was suddenly lifted.
She instantly snapped back to reality, looking at Alexander's face, which had somehow gotten so close to hers. Her body instinctively leaned back, "Honey, you... don't do this."
His movement toward her paused slightly, his slightly raised tone carrying a hint of barely detectable teasing, "Don't do what?"
Lila naturally knew this wasn't a question that needed answering.
She was nervous as hell, but to avoid interrupting him after physical contact had truly aroused his interest, she chose to make things clear now.
Of course, the negotiating kind of clear.
Lila looked at him timidly, asking carefully, "Can we wait a bit before doing that kind of thing?"
Alexander's deep voice rose slightly, "Wait? Wait until when?"
"Until I crush on you?"
"After crush on me?"
Lila suddenly thought of another interpretation—
Did he have to be so confusing?
Looking at Alexander right now, she really couldn't connect him with the Alexander who sat in the spacious, bright CEO's office at the Sinclair Group, strategically handling all kinds of work matters.
That Alexander, although his face carried a coldness that kept people at a distance, was focused, serious, and elegant in his manner.
But now?
Lila really didn't want to associate such a handsome face with words like "pervert" or "wolf in sheep's clothing."
But that was exactly the feeling he was giving her.
Perhaps because Lila hadn't spoken for a long time, Alexander spoke again, "If you don't try crushing, how will you know you like that feeling?"
Lila was simply speechless.
Was this really Alexander?
Saying dirty things, and his eyes were also...
Wait, where was he looking?
