Chapter 17: I Feel Sick When I Hear Your Name
She answered softly, "Grandpa, who told you that Alex brought a woman back? He didn't."
Arthur did not ask Maisy about Alex again, but said, "Maisy, come back with Alex tonight."
When Maisy heard that Arthur asked them to go back to Hussain Mansion, she frowned, "Grandpa,
what's the matter?"
Arthur's voice came again on the phone, "Maisy, your eldest brother has come back and will be back
home tonight. You and Alex have to come back early tonight."
Arthur finished speaking and hung up.
Maisy was stunned for a few seconds with holding her mobile phone. Their eldest brother? What
Grandpa said should be Alex’s eldest brother!
She didn't have a deep impression of Alex's eldest brother. She remembered that there was such a
person, but hadn't he been abroad very early? After the kidnapping incident ten years ago, he went
abroad.
Thinking of the kidnapping incident ten years ago, she still had lingering fears.
It seemed that since the kidnapping incident, Alex began to be cold, alienated, and even completely
indifferent to her.
Until a year ago, when she was discouraged, he suddenly came to propose to her one day. She did not
immediately agree to him. However, his grandfather, Arthur, found her. Because of the thing that his
grandfather refused to let her say it out, she only agreed to marry him.
Strictly speaking, it was not Alex who was forced to marry, but she.
Although she was forced to marry him by Alex's grandfather, for her, it was her wish to marry him.
She thought that after marriage, he would change his mind. She had been waiting for him to turn
around. No matter how many scandals he had, she only recognized seeing as believing.
But when she saw him and Scarlett cheating on her with her own eyes, she couldn't accept it and
collapsed completely. Especially when he set her up for divorce, causing her to lose her innocence, she
was totally disappointed in him.
Her heart was aching, and then she looked at Hanna. She said embarrassingly, "Hanna, I can't hang
out with you. Grandpa called me to return to Hussain Mansion tonight."
Hanna stared at her and said, "It's just right to go back. You told his Grandpa all the things Alex did,
and let him take the charge for you."
Maisy shook her head, staring at Hanna, "Hanna, I can't tell Grandpa for the time being. He is not in
good health. If he knows, he will definitely get sick."
Hearing what Maisy said, Hanna glared at her, "Maisy, you are so kind. If I were you, I won't care about
anything."
…
After saying goodbye to Hanna, Maisy returned to CY Villa, but unexpectedly, she received a call from
Alex.
What came from the phone was his cold voice without any warmth, "Maisy, did you tell Grandpa? I am
not mistaken. You are indeed a scheming woman. Do you think you ask Grandpa for help then I will be
separated from Scarlett? Do you think that I will fall in love with you? You wish."
"I..." Alex didn't wait for Maisy to speak, only said what he wanted to say and hung up the phone.
Maisy was looking at her mobile phone. Her slender hands clenched tightly. The anger in her heart
rushed to the top of her head. She was still considering his grandfather and wanted to conceal the
matter for him. He just called to question her without knowing the truth.
She seldom called Alex. But now she called back angrily. As soon as the call was connected, before
Alex could speak, she said in a cold voice, "Alex, I am so scheming that I want to conceal what you did
to me for you. Before our first wedding anniversary, I really hope you can treat me well, but now, I feel
sick when I hear your name. Listen well, you are such a jerk. You and Scarlett are such a matched
couple. I wish you two can be together forever."
