Chapter 21

Chapter 21 --- Alexander couldn’t control himself. He was about to stride quickly after Elena. He wanted to ask for an explanation. But just as he was about to move, he suddenly stopped—shocked by his own actions. “What am I doing?” “Why should I care about her feelings?” “I’ve only been nice to her out of pity. Nothing more!” “What exactly do I want?” “Why do I feel the need to explain all this when this marriage was never something I wanted in the first place?” “This marriage is only temporary!” “It’s nothing more than a fake marriage that means nothing to me!” Alexander forced himself to come to his senses again.

Chapter 22

Chapter 22 ... Elena did not expect that morning to turn out like this. Alexander, whom she rarely saw eating, was now sitting beside her, eating with incredible appetite and speed. Every time his plate was empty, he asked for more and more, until every dish she had cooked was completely gone. “S-Sir… the food I made is already finished. If you’re still hungry, there’s still plenty of food that your assistant brought earlier.” Elena forced a stiff smile when Alexander continued asking for more food even after everything she had cooked was gone. “Huh?” Alexander’s eyes sharpened as he turned toward the table... The only food left there now was what Albert had brought. He let out a heavy sigh and closed his eyes briefly. Then he turned his gaze back t

Chapter 23

Chapter 23 ... Elena finally changed her clothes. She wore a turtleneck and a long skirt, dressing in a very modest way. She tied her hair with the hair tie her husband had given her. Soon, she left for the hospital where her grandfather was being treated. Her heart always felt heavy whenever she entered the room where her grandfather lay surrounded by machines that kept him alive. The hospital had already asked Elena to let him go, but Elena could not do it. Her grandfather was the only person in this world who truly loved her. If he left, she would truly be alone. “Grandpa…” “I’m here again. I’m sorry I couldn’t come for a while. A lot of things have happened in my life lately.” Elena smiled, but her lips tremble

Chapter 24

Chapter 24 ... After meeting her mother, Elena could no longer hold back her tears. She kept walking, but her head had been lowered the entire time. All she could see was the road beneath her feet, while tears continued to wet her cheeks. “Mom… I want candy!” A small child’s voice could be heard whining, asking her mother for candy. Elena was walking in the middle of the city. There were many shops there and the place was quite lively. Many small families were strolling around, enjoying the city scenery. Elena lifted her face and looked toward the little girl. “No, sweetheart, it’s already night. If you eat candy too often your teeth will get cavities. Tonight we’re going to eat something delicious at that restaurant.” The mother was gently refusing

Chapter 25

Chapter 25 ... Never before had Alexander seen a woman this pitiful. It was as if she had nothing at all—always looking wounded, crying in secret—yet even so, her smile was bright, as though she had never known sadness. In his heart, the man wondered whether someone like this woman could survive in such a cruel world. 'Why did her eyes look so innocent? Why was her smile so beautiful, yet fragile at the same time?' 'She was like a rotting branch—one gust of wind would be enough to make her collapse.' He did not know how many wounds were hidden in her heart, that being forced to marry a man as cold and cruel as him could become something Elena considered a blessing and happiness. Now, when Alexander heard that it was her own mother who had caused the wound on her cheek, his anger burned fiercely. He d

Chapter 26

Chapter 26---“Clean yourself up, treat your wound, and meet me in my study!”Alexander’s voice sounded curt. They had already arrived at his mansion, and at that moment Alexander hurriedly left Elena behind.His heart was beating far too fast now. Alexander had to calm himself down, or he might end up devouring Elena no matter what.“Even in a situation like this, she’s still tempting me!”“It feels like my patience is slowly running out, and I could grab her like a wild beast at any moment!”“I need to calm myself down!” Alexander muttered to himself as he walked away, clenching his hands tightly.His gaze was straight and sharp, and his long strides allowed him to reach his study quickly.Meanwhile, Elena could only stare at her husband’s back the entire time.That broad back looked strong and solid.With deep eyes, she watched him leave. It was as if the universe itself was showing her that the man walking away from her was someone she would never be able to reach—someone who woul

Chapter 27 : First Kiss

Chapter 27...The atmosphere inside the study felt extremely heated. Elena did not understand why everything had turned out like this.She also did not understand why she could not push this man away.They were indeed married, but this marriage was not built on love. Having a marital relationship was something that had always made Elena feel afraid and hurt.She did not like it. She did not want her husband to do it and look at her as if she were another woman.As for Alexander, he had never experienced something like this before. He was a man of dignity. He could restrain his desires, and he had always been confident that he could continue doing so.Until now, no matter how beautiful a woman was, none had ever managed to break that principle. As a healthy adult man, of course he had strong desires, but he had always been able to control them without any difficulty.But now…'I’ve crossed the line of my own principle. How far will I go with this woman?''Why does she make me feel into

Chapter 28

Chapter 28...Someone like Alexander Kingston—extremely handsome and possessing everything—could easily sleep with the most beautiful women if he wanted to. He could call any woman to satisfy him.But he refused to do such things. He did not want to be like his father, who had been unfaithful.He also had a sense of dignity that he upheld strongly. Just like now, his marriage to Elena was not a marriage he had wanted.Whatever the reason that had brought Elena into his room when he had been drunk and broken back then, it had still caused Alexander a loss because he had been forced to marry her.So Alexander realized that he had no obligation to remain faithful to Elena.He did not love her, and he was still certain that he would divorce her once their child was born.And yet—even when his crazy desire was overwhelming to the point of torment—he still did not lose his senses and sleep with another woman who was not his wife.“Another cold shower again! I’m someone who can have everyth

Chapter 29

Chapter 29 ...Elena didn’t waste any more time. She knew that if she made another mistake, Alexander would punish her again in that extremely naughty way.“I have to hurry!”“I can’t make him angry again, or else…”Elena quickly got up from the bed, but then she suddenly froze when the memory of last night’s scandalous moment flashed through her mind.“Ahh! What just crossed my mind?! Forget it quickly, Elena!”“You must not remember it again or you’ll die of embarrassment!”She grumbled, shaking her head as she tried hard to erase the naughty memory from her mind.Her face turned even redder, and her heart beat wildly whenever she remembered it.Elena was extremely embarrassed. She was far too embarrassed remembering how she had made those shameful sounds last night while Alexander laughed mischievously at her.Especially when the man who was now her husband had called her very sensitive—words she had never heard before in her life.“Huuuhhh!”Elena let out a long breath. Trying to

Chapter 30

Episode 30...Those round, beautiful blue eyes that so often held back tears, because she knew her tears had no value. Her voice had never been heard.Elena had grown used to living without attention, without care, as if injustice toward her were something natural.What else could she do? If she fought back or defended herself, no one would stand by her side. She was alone, and she had long since learned to bow her head and swallow her tears whenever she was hurt.But now, right before her eyes, a man who had rejected her again and again—who had said on their wedding night that he would soon divorce her—was holding her shoulders, looking at her firmly and directly, telling her that he believed her.Like a nightmare suddenly disappearing when one wakes up, Alexander had stepped into her darkness and given her a small glimmer of hope.'It’s alright.''It’s alright.''Everything will be alright.'Those were the words she repeated in her heart, trying to calm herself so she would not emb
