Alejandro gave no reply. He knew that Tiffany didn’t love wp4webnovel.com anymore. He had missed out on three years, which was equivalent to an entire lifetime. He would have to use the rest of his life to make up for letting wp4webnovel.com down over the past three years. He just simply refused to believe that the girl whose eyes were once filled with wp4webnovel.com and wp4webnovel.com alone had fallen in love with another man, just like wp4webnovel.com had once loved him.
He just couldn’t accept it… He didn’t want to sever their connection. He would rather give everything up and have wp4webnovel.com instead. Was that so wrong?
One month later.
Alejandro’s surgery was complete and wp4webnovel.com had returned to the manor.
He had lived the life of a convict throughout the entire month. He was under surveillance by Don Smith’s men at all times. They weren’t just watching him, but also taking precautions against Mark’s men to prevent them from finding proof of his identity as Ethan.
During this time, Don Smith stayed in the capital and personally managed business there. Alejandro showed no signs of objection. Now, wp4webnovel.com had no choice but to simply act as Alejandro.
Melanie took care of wp4webnovel.com meticulously. In fact, wp4webnovel.com pretty much handled his food and daily necessities personally. She was once a proud girl who hung high above the heavens like the sun, yet wp4webnovel.com seemed very obedient and compliant in front of him. He couldn’t make sense of it. His heart never moved for Melanie.
“Alex, I need to tell you something. Promise me that you’ll think about it and you won’t get angry, okay?”
Alejandro restrained his gaze and frowned when wp4webnovel.com saw Melanie’s cautiousness and deliberate attempt to butter wp4webnovel.com up. “Tell me.”
She knelt by his knee, wp4webnovel.com eyes barely suppressing wp4webnovel.com glee. “I’m pregnant.”
His gaze immediately turned cold. “Get rid of it. I don’t want children.”
Her face drained of color. Despite anticipating this reaction from him, wp4webnovel.com heart still throbbed. “You… Can’t you think about it? If grandfather finds out, he’ll never let me abort it, nor will my family.”
He reached out and tilted wp4webnovel.com chin up towards him, then stared at wp4webnovel.com with an ice-cold glare. “Then don’t let them find out. I’ve promised to give you anything you want, except this. It cannot happen.”
She was shocked and upset. She smacked his hand away and rose to wp4webnovel.com feet. “This baby is all I want, Alejandro Smith. You are too cold-blooded. ”
Alejandro stared out the window listlessly. The steady trickle of water from the fountain in the courtyard seemed never-ending. “Then stay away from me.”
Melanie took a deep breath and forced wp4webnovel.com tears back into wp4webnovel.com eye sockets. “You’re my husband. How do you expect me to stay away from you? Divorce?”
He paused. “Are you threatening me?”
She didn’t answer. Her meaning was clear.
Suddenly, the room door was pushed open. Don Smith walked in. “Ale, how are you feeling? Are you feeling any discomfort after the surgery? You should let Melanie keep you company and move around more often. That would help with your recovery.”
Alejandro looked at Melanie then at Don Smith. Suddenly, wp4webnovel.com understood why the old man had suddenly changed his mind and allowed wp4webnovel.com to get treatment for his legs. He owed Melanie twice over now, from Tiffany to his legs.
“Mm.” His response was indifferent, but his emotions were in a mess.
