Unsure if it was because Alexander looked more approachable and vulnerable in women's clothing, Isabella found herself drawn to him. She lunged toward the bed, ending up sprawled on top of the beauty Alexander. Caught off guard, Alexander was suddenly embraced by her. He let out a muffled grunt, but once he regained his bearings, he could only indulge her, holding her affectionately in his arms. “What did you call me?” Alexander raised an eyebrow, helpless. Isabella was lying on Alexander's abs, but she could feel the silky material of his nightgown. The contrast amused Isabella, making her laugh. Isabella rose to her feet, looking down at the beauty before her. With a playful grin, she declared, “Such beauty, she must definitely be my wife.” Who else could be so fortunate to have the most handsome husband and the most beautiful wife at the same time? It's me! Isabella was so overwhelmed by the stunning beauty that she almost lost herself. Upon receiving some form of acknowledgement, Alexander's eyes suddenly deepened, filled with profound mystery. Isabella's vivacious demeanor struck Alexander's heart, shaking his soul, as if he had once witnessed such a beautiful scene. Alexander's heart was pounding intensely, the vibrations seeping through his thin nightgown and resonating with Isabella's. Isabella was slightly taken aback, only then did she truly meet his gaze. His eyes, softened due to the makeup, no longer held the usual indifferent appearance, but rather a tender look. It was so mesmerizing that it left Isabella's mind completely blank. The scene before her seemed to subtly match the photos that Selena had shown her in the past. Unsure if it was a figment of imagination, there arose a powerful, uncontrollable urge.Such beautiful things should be held and kissed, and it seemed... this wasn't the first time it had happened. By the time Alexander came to his senses, he felt as though the world had spun around in an instant. Suddenly, Isabella's face loomed large before his eyes. Her lips, lightly coated with a cool balm, gently met his, a contrast of temperatures. Their breaths intertwined for a moment, and it felt as though even her soul was momentarily lifted. Alexander felt as if he had suddenly plunged into a furnace, his blood threatening to boil over. A surge of energy coursed through his body, like a cheetah ready to pounce, yet he continued to suppress everything, cautiously enduring it all. He was afraid that this was just an illusion, worried that a careless move might startle the latter. Even though Alexander remained completely still, the pressure on his lips still vanished. Instinctively, Alexander lifted his head, longing to chase after that kiss, to continue the entanglement. Ah! How did I end up kissing him? Before Alexander could catch up, Isabella had already turned over, covering her face and curling up in a corner. Ah, could it be that the cross-dressing tycoon seemed so approachable, so devoid of pressure, that I just flirted without any restraint? His lips were just so soft and sweet, I really liked them... hehehe... But I wonder if he thought I was being irresponsible for kissing him so abruptly! Oh no, what if he starts questioning me... What should I say then? But... I really wish to kiss him again. Listening to Isabella's confused inner thoughts, all Alexander could do was let out a helpless sigh. Turning around, he drew Isabella into his arms. As expected, the person in his embrace stiffened for a moment. Alexander could see a blush spread over Isabella's normally pale nape, a clear sign of her intense embarrassment.Isabella was somewhat nervous, but then she heard Alexander ask, “Are you satisfied now?” “Uh... I-I'm quite satisfied,” Isabella stammered. “Can I remove my makeup now?” Alexander said nonchalantly. Immediately, Isabella scrambled to her feet, her head hung low. “You go change your clothes first, I'll help you later,” she said. Odd, why isn't he saying anything? Naturally, Alexander didn't want Isabella to experience even the slightest bit of pressure. Between them, Isabella always held the reins. However... Alexander also had a minor grievance that needed some venting. Accompanying Alexander to the bathroom, he leaned over, allowing Isabella to help him remove his makeup. As the handsome Alexander gradually reverted to his original look, Isabella's hands began to slow down. Having cleaned off his lipstick, Isabella recalled the mischief she had just committed, feeling a pang of guilt. She was considering asking Alexander to take action himself, but the thought of speaking up made her feel awkward. With a firm resolve, Isabella decided to opt for a swift resolution. Perhaps in her pursuit of speed, she wasn't as meticulous, resulting in Alexander's lips being slightly red and swollen after being cleaned. Isabella was just about to awkwardly retract her hand from her masterpiece when her wrist was suddenly seized. At that moment, Alexander opened his eyes. Because they were removing makeup, they were very close to each other. As soon as he opened his eyes, the short distance between their gazes seemed to make the surrounding temperature rise. Isabella was still reeling, momentarily taken aback. Her gaze evaded, stuttering, “W-What?” “Do you prefer men or women?”A single, cryptic sentence was enough to make Isabella's mind go blank. “Huh? Of course I prefer men.” Alexander's eyes sparkled, his Adam's apple bobbed slightly. “Is that so? I was somewhat worried...” The final note once again vanished between their entwined lips. Isabella's eyes widened in disbelief, a tremor passing through her gaze. Her shock was even more profound than before. After all, her previous actions had been carried out in a state of confusion, and the person she was dealing with then was, in a sense, half an illusion. But now, she was facing the real Alexander. In her utmost clarity, she was drawn closer by Alexander... It was still the simplest of kisses, yet it made them feel as if fireworks were bursting in their hearts. By the time Isabella regained her composure, she heard a deep, magnetic voice suppressing its joy, yet still brimming with laughter. However, in a deliberately nonchalant tone, he said, “Now, I'm not worried anymore.” Isabella couldn't recall how she had fallen asleep. When she stirred the next morning, the usual good morning kiss that would grace her forehead was unexpectedly light as a feather on her lips. It tickled so much that Isabella couldn't resist licking his lips, and she thought she heard a soft swallowing sound. In her sleep, Isabella sensed something akin to danger. She instinctively curled up under the blanket, then continued to dream peacefully. The latter, however, had no choice but to make a trip to the bathroom before they could finally leave. The progress of the foolish couple was slow. However, the day of the Burke family's wedding was finally drawing near. Even though Ralph had no hope of having children, the wedding ceremony still had to go on. That night, everyone was in the living room, discussing plans for attending the wedding the next day. However, Isabella was somewhat distracted. Elaine had been reaching out to her, with messages popping up incessantly. Isabella initially thought there was some sort of emergency. However, upon opening the message, she found the first one was from Elaine, asking her if she knew anything about what had recently happened between Aiden and Ines. Isabella was puzzled. Upon closer inspection, she realized that Elaine and Deborah had recently been in contact with Ines regarding the delivery of congratulatory gifts. Although they were able to reach her, Ines, who was usually enthusiastic and cheerful, ended the conversation after just a few words. Her tone sounded weak and listless. She barely responded to messages on the chat app, which was all very strange. Isabella wanted to say, “You’ve known each other for so many years. If you don't know, how would I?” However, before she could even speak up, Elaine texted: Gossip Queen, tell me, are there any gossip? Isabella was speechless. She tossed her phone to Alexander. After a moment of thought, Alexander commented, “Recently, Aiden hasn't been very active. Seems like he's been busy.” This caught the attention of the entire family, prompting them to ask what was going on. Meanwhile, Isabella took the opportunity to open the system and began to check it out. What could possibly be going on? Let me see... What? Immediately, the entire family sat up straight. What is going on? There's really some juicy gossip? Is it about Aiden's father being infertile? Holy crap, how could this have happened! Ms. Hawkins had a miscarriage, and it was an accident caused by Ines! Mr. Ralph still doesn't know that his last hope is gone, and because of the issue of not being able to have children, he's even more focused on his last child. Both Aiden and Ines know that if Mr. Ralph finds out the truth, things will really hit the fan.
