Ch. 991..1000

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 991

Ralph looked at his watch and saw it was 9 p.m.on the dot.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Uneasy, he fiddled with his shirt's collar.

He planned to dress up for tonight's date, but when he was about to put on his tie, Celine, who was passing by, glanced at him and said, "It's already so late.

Are you going out for a formal dinner? You dressed up so grandly!"

Celine did not mean anything by her words, but her casual remarks jolted him.

That's right.He was not going out to attend some grand event.

Even if it was a date, this was his home, his domain.

They were both single and meeting late at night in the dark.

Heather must have thought about it when she invited him at this time and place.

Surely she knew what would happen under such conditions and in such an environment, but she still invited him.

Could it be that her hidden meaning was the same as what he thought? When Ralph considered this, he undid the tie he had just fastened around his neck, then took off the suit he had carefully chosen and rolled up the sleeve of his shirt.

After looking in the mirror, he undid two collar buttons to reveal his neckline.He felt he looked quite sexy this way.He stood in front of the mirror and looked at himself from the left and right.He tilted his head, combed his hair, and smiled in satisfaction.He adjusted his hair twice more and grinned nefariously, feeling quite satisfied.

If everything went smoothly tonight, he would be able to capture the heart of this young lady and simply need to wait for their marriage and take over the Riggs family’s property.

After that...he would be able to take away the Russell family’s wealth and kick Alexander out of the game.

What a wonderful future! He could hardly wait for that moment! After leaving the room, Ralph picked out a bottle of fine red wine, put it on a tray with two glasses and a plate of snacks, and asked the maid to bring them up to Heather's room.

The tray was brought outside the room, and then Ralph waved to signal the maid to leave.

The maid was about to go when he stopped her after giving it some thought.

He whispered to the maid, "No one is allowed to come here without my order, let alone disturb me and the young mistress’s conversation.Do you understand?"

He felt relieved when the maid noted his order and retreated.He cleared his throat and adjusted his collar again, as he was still somewhat uneasy.

Heather, who was in the room, had sensitive hearing due to her years of kickboxing.She had been aware of movement outside the door for a long time, but when she saw it was Ralph, she stopped being so alert.

She didn't take the initiative to open the door but instead waited for him to come to the door himself.

Heather looked at the time when she heard the knock It was precisely 9 o'clock.It looked like he was punctual.

With a smirk, she walked over to the door in her slippers without hurrying.

Then she opened the door.

"I'm here, my love!"

Ralph leaned on the door with one hand and held the tray with the other.

When the door opened, he felt he put on a suave pose and a charming smile.

However, his smile froze when he saw the scene before him.

Heather immediately turned around and walked back into the room after she opened the door.She didn't even pause or look at Ralph, leaving him with nothing but the sight of her back.

Ralph was stunned.

"Heather..."

He could not stand it any longer and dashed after her, calling out, "Look, aren't I punctual? Did you call me here because you have something to tell me? Or...do you want to do something with me?"

He hastily closed the door and followed her in small steps.

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 992

Heather probably just took a shower not long ago.She was wearing a large night robe, and the belt around her waist revealed her slender waist.Her exposed calf was not slim but rather muscular due to her practicing kickboxing all year.

The well-proportioned lines and fair skin made him drool.

Heather walked toward the desk before stopping.She picked up a large towel from the chair and used it to dry her hair.

It was uncomfortable feeling the water dripping from her hair after washing, but she hated using a hair dryer.She could only wipe hard with a dry towel.

"Let me help you!"

Ralph hurriedly put down the tray in his hand and stepped forward.

However, she turned away to avoid him and said coldly, "No need."

He failed to grab the towel and wanted to back off when he heard her cold voice.

However, he recalled his purpose and future.He endured it again and said with a smile, "Why are you so distant with me? We’re about to get married! If you rub your hair too hard, it’ll become damaged.Let me help you wipe it."

"No need!"

She finished wiping it as she spoke.She looked up, flipped her hair back, and shook her head.

The water splashed everywhere because it had not been completely wiped off.

Some of the water droplets splashed on Ralph's face.

He raised his head, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

What a fragrant smell! Heather disliked hair care and thought it was a waste of time, so she wore it shoulder length.

She rubbed her hair with her hand casually and looked up.She remembered why she had asked Ralph to come over when she saw him standing there with a sour face.

It would be hard to get words out of him if she had a cold attitude.

She picked up the towel she had thrown aside and handed it to him after some thought.

"I don't like hair dryers.You can use this to help me wipe my hair."

Ralph was overjoyed at the turn of events.He quickly took the towel but frowned after touching it.

"This towel is completely soaked.I'll change it for you."

Heather almost blurted out, "No need,"but kept silent after some thought and let him do as he pleased.

Ralph got a clean, dry towel and stood behind her as he laid her hair on it.He then helped her dry it off.

"It's easy to get sick when your hair is wet.I know you’re a busy person with many things to do.Even so, you have to take good care of your body! Still, there will be me in the future.You can leave some things to me after we get married.I can help share your burden.Women were meant to be pampered.Some things are better left for men to do!"

Ralph took the opportunity to say so while helping her dry her hair.

Heather coldly smirked at his words as she understood their implicit meaning.

Both of them were clear about each other’s intentions for getting married.

To be precise, she knew this man's thoughts, but they did not know what she really wanted.

They probably thought she wanted the Russell family's property.

How naive.

The Russells had many properties, but none were as crucial to her as the secret kickboxing handbook.

Heather did not reply to Ralph’s words.

She closed her eyes, enjoyed the comfortable sensation from her scalp, and said casually, "Your house is quite big, Ralph.Such a big house.Aren't you afraid of thieves?"

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 993

Ralph chuckled and seemed proud of himself.

"You underestimated my family, Ms.Riggs.The house looks no different from ordinary houses apart from being very large, but the top security company in the country handles our security systems.

"We have cameras, infrared and other mechanisms all over the place.You can rest assured as you are safe."

Ralph thought of something after he finished speaking and added, "If you don't like to live here, we can move out.

"We can buy a house you like.Just the two of us.What do you think?"

He slid his hand from her shoulder to her collarbone and then down.

Heather stopped his hand in time and smirked.

"Is that so?"

She continued without giving Ralph a chance to continue bragging, "Then how come I heard there was a theft in this house last night?"

Ralph froze as he did not expect her to know about it, especially since his family had immediately hidden the incident as soon as it happened.

Therefore, the public was none the wiser about the theft.

Those who knew were the few people within the Russell family, and they also ordered the servants not to spread the news.He wondered how Heather knew about it.He did not have the time to think about it and laughed dryly, "Y-You’re very well informed! Ralph bent down and whispered beside Heather's ears, "It's just a few petty thieves that were not worth mentioning, so I didn’t tell you about it.Judging from your question, it seems you’re concerned about my family, Heather."

He was testing her since he did not know what Heather meant by her words.

Ralph even wondered if she was angry and wanted to break the engagement or if she was expressing her dissatisfaction.

Heather raised her eyebrows and moved away.

"Oh? Petty thieves? It turns out a few petty thieves can infiltrate your top-level security system.It looks like these thieves are not that simple, or is your home’s security system not as good as you said?"

Ralph did not expect her to question him and was stunned.

"Haha.You're right.I also think the security system is not as good as I said.I have already contacted the security company and plan to terminate our contract.I'll ask them to compensate me for the loss.As for the follow-up, I will find better security guards.Or, do you have any good suggestions?"

Heather was waiting for this.She immediately turned and looked at him.

"Our birth destined us to be concerned for our safety at all times.You should know that my family is a kickboxing family.I feel I can give you better advice in this regard.Maybe you can consider the Riggs family’s security measures and change the security guards to the Riggs family guards?"

"T-That’s"

Ralph might be trying his best to please her now, but he was not a fool.

Moreover, they had yet to marry.

Even if they were, Heather was still an outsider.

Things would be different if Ralph took control of the Riggs family, but he had yet to do so.

If he hastily handed over the Russell family's security to the Riggs, it was akin to opening the family’s doors to the Riggs family without reserve.He was not that stupid.

Heather and he had yet to reach that point in relation.

Heather turned back and said coldly, "Just pretend I didn't say anything if you don't believe me."

Ralph noticed she was angry and hurriedly coaxed her, ''No, how could I not believe you? I may not trust others, but I fully trust you! However, I can’t decide on this matter.You know my nephew is the head of the Russell family.I want to use your family as security, but we need to discuss this further."

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 994

Ralph spoke softly and kneaded Heather's shoulders with both hands.He looked down and saw her delicate collarbone and skin from the angle where he stood.

However, he could not see anything further down as Heather remained well-covered in her pajamas.

Ralph could feel firmness under her skin as he kneaded her shoulder.

It was the firmness of a person who had practiced kickboxing all year round and differed from women who gave a soft feeling.

It also differed from what he felt when kissing her before.

Ralph recalled her waist feeling softer and slimmer in his arms when they last kissed.

He would feel aroused whenever he thought of it.

Although he had physical contact with her right now, he was inexplicably timid.

‘Something isn’t right! It must be because we aren’t close enough"

Ralph recalled their last kiss and wanted to feel it again.

"Annie..."

He bent down and blew into her ear.He was slightly disappointed when he noticed diamond studs on her small earlobes.

She did not wear the ones he gave her.

"Where are the earrings I gave you?"

Heather subconsciously wanted to punch him, but his question jolted her awake.

She cleared her throat, saying, "I kept it at home.I prefer to keep precious things well so that if there were thieves like the ones you encountered, they wouldn't be able to steal them, right?"

She hinted at something, but Ralph did not notice it.He only heard her saying that his gifts were precious.

Ralph thought that, sure enough, she loved him.

She just pretended to be dignified and reserved in front of him.

He also wondered if her words were a hint and invitation for intimacy.

He turned around and kissed her tender cheek when he thought of this.

He perfunctorily replied, "Of course.You kept them well so no one can find them easily..."

Heather was overjoyed and suddenly turned around, "Where would you keep..."

Suddenly, their lips met.

Heather widened her eyes in surprise since she did not expect this to happen.

No one, including Ralph, could ever get close to her with her kickboxing instincts.

However, she endured the discomfort since she wanted to pry more information from him.

Ralph was delighted when her lips pressed against his.

He succeeded in achieving his goal.

He hugged her shoulders tightly, forcefully deepened the kiss, and tried to pry her lips for an even deeper kiss.

Heather’s mind went blank, and she was petrified as she had never experienced something like this before.

She instantly regained her senses when she felt the wet sensation and his intentions.

She squinted her eyes and...

"Ouch!"

Ralph screamed in pain and let go of her.

He took two steps back and was in deep pain to the point that he could not speak.

He pointed at her with his finger, his lips dripping with blood and trembling.

He only managed to mumble, "Uh, uh..."

On the other hand, Heather looked complacent.

She dusted off her hands, stood up, and sneered, "This is the price for molesting me!"

‘She's crazy!’ Ralph widened his eyes in surprise.

He could not figure out how this woman could change her attitude instantly.

She was sometimes gentle and sometimes as cold as a block of ice.

‘Is she bipolar?!’

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 995

Heather felt she was already showing mercy.She disliked such intimate contact with other men.She only gave him a minor punishment and a heavy warning as she remembered she still had more important things to do and could not offend Ralph.

Ralph was unguarded, and the cut Heather left on his lip made him grimace in pain.

He was furious.

"You're crazy! Are you sick?!"

She only intended to teach him a small lesson, but his scolding made Heather’s face shrouded with a layer of frost as she gave him a death stare.

Ralph felt even more furious after cursing, but Heather’s cold eyes, which looked like she wanted to eat him alive, terrified him.

He regretted what he had said as his heart trembled in fear.

"That really hurt!"

His momentum weakened subconsciously.

He flinched a little when he looked at her.

Ralph hissed in pain and raised his hand to touch his lips.

He stopped before touching it as he was afraid of the pain, so he dejectedly put down his hand.

Heather only revealed her murderous aura momentarily.

She felt deep disdain at his cowardly appearance instead —what a coward.

She would not want to continue her relationship with him if the Russell family had not hidden the secret kickboxing handbook too well.

She turned around, poured a glass of cold water, and handed it to him, "Here."

Ralph looked at her with fear and puzzlement.He was afraid she would splash the glass of water on his face in the next second.

"Rinse your mouth.It'll reduce the pain," Heather said coldly.

Her attitude remained cold but was much better than the deadly look in her eyes.

Ralph quickly took the glass and rushed to the bathroom.

Just as he was about to pour it into his mouth, he suddenly remembered something, turned his head, and looked out.

"You...didn't put any salt in, did you?"

Heather was astounded.She shrugged and did not answer his question directly.

"Shouldn’t you know if I have that in my room?"

Ralph thought her words sounded reasonable since it would not make sense for salt to be in the bedroom.

Even so, he still felt nervous when he was about to drink from the cup.He turned on the tap and poured out the water.

Then refilled the glass and rinsed his mouth.

Heather noticed his actions as she stood outside the bathroom.

She snorted with disdain as she saw him wash with his head bent down.

She heard the sound of water splashing, scoffed in contempt, and then turned around to look away.

Heather walked toward the door to scan the corridor.

Since the house looked ordinary outside, Heather purposely found an excuse to live in it.

She had roughly looked around and thought it was no different from any ordinary mansion.

After deep contemplation, she thought the family had likely kept the book in a hidden compartment since it was a crucial artifact.

Influential families like the Russells must have secret rooms, passages, and other hidden places.

Her family, for example, was on a relatively isolated island and was supposed to be safe.

Even so, they had many hidden secret passages as they were not just to guard against outsiders but also against her family’s own rebellious family members.

Heather pondered and felt that she still needed Ralph if she wanted to find the secret kickboxing handbook as soon as possible.

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 996

Although he was not the patriarch of the Russell family, as the youngest child, he was still Margaret's favorite son.He was not as sharp as the rest and easy to break.He most likely knew the secrets of the family as well.

In the bathroom, Ralph was lost as to what she was thinking.

The only thing running through his head was how difficult this woman was to get along with.

She was the most difficult woman he had ever met.

After washing his face with cold water, he looked in the mirror to see that his lips were clearly swollen.

Although the pain was slowly subsiding to the point of numbness, his lips looked like they had been plumped.

The two clear teeth marks explained his swollen lips without needing to say a word.

Ralph rubbed the corner of his lips with his thumb, deciding he should no longer be so passive! Turning off the faucet, he strode out and saw Heather standing by the door.

He walked straight to her.

Heather heard the movement and turned her head in the direction of the sound, only to see him already right in front of her.

Then, he put one hand on her hand, pinning her against the door frame.

‘What is he trying to-' Bang! She narrowed her eyes at him.

Her initial reaction was to kick him away, but after a pause, she sneered.

"What's wrong? Didn't you suffer enough? Are you back for more?"

"What are you trying to do?"

Ralph looked at her and asked out of the blue.

Although Heather was startled by his question, she maintained a calm expression and replied unhurriedly.

"Shouldn't I ask you that question, Mr.Russell?"

She stood there, unmoving.

However, her knees were slightly bent.

If he dared to say anything unpleasant, she would make him feel a pain he would never forget.

"Let's break off the engagement," he said after pondering for a moment.

His face was solemn, with no hint of joking around.

Although he had her pinned against the door, the words from his mouth sounded dignified.

Even a woman as experienced as Heather was stunned, freezing in place.

"What?"

"I said, let's break off the engagement," he repeated, enunciating every word.

It was as if he wanted to make sure she heard him and knew how serious he was.

Heather felt anger bubbling in her heart and snapped, "Are you serious right now?!"

She had always been the one to choose and pick.

No one had rejected her before.

‘Ralph Russell, who do you think you are? You're just another son from the Russell family with no real power.

If it weren't for me needing to use you as my pawn, do you really think you have a chance with me?! Yet, here you are, calling off our engagement?!"

Although this was just an exchange between the two, and she had only planned to use him as her henchman, she still wanted to be in the dominant position of the relationship.She wanted to be the decision-maker, not him! "Is this because I bit you just now?"

She looked at the teeth marks on his lips, and for some reason, all she could think of was the strange feeling she felt when they kissed.

His lips were hot, giving her a strange feeling she had never experienced before.

"No, I'm doing this because of you,"

Ralph continued, looking into her eyes.

Maybe it was because he had always played the fool and had constantly been trying to win her over that she was not used to this serious side of him.

"For me?" She repeated, not understanding what he meant.

Unknowingly, her slightly bent knees straightened, and she looked at him, puzzled.

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 997

Ralph nodded solemnly and continued, "Didn't you say that you didn't want to marry or be with me? If that's the case, we might as well just call it off.We don't have to force the issue."

"when did I say such a thing?" Heather replied, subconsciously looking away.

She wasn't used to being stared down by him like this.

Although she had no intentions of marrying him, she did not recall saying it out loud.

"You didn't, but I can tell by how you act.You're unhappy and not looking forward to this marriage."

Still supporting himself with one hand, Ralph continued to stare at her and continued, "I know that you can get anyone you want with your face, figure, and wealth.There are also countless people lining up to take my place.However, I'm really happy that you chose me.

"I thought that even though you didn't like me that much, you'd at least have a little affection for me.We'd gotten along very well before this, and some of the things you did...made me feel that maybe you cared about me.Now, it seems like I may have misunderstood.I don't like to force people into things.If you don't want to do this, let's just call off the marriage.

"Don't worry.This won't affect the cooperation between our families.If you need help, you can always ask me, and I’ll try my best to help you.I hope you know that I want you to be happy no matter what!"

After he was done speaking, he lowered his arms gradually until they were close to her shoulders, but he didn't touch her.He hung it there for a moment as if hesitating whether he should touch her before withdrawing his hand dejectedly.With a sigh, he turned and walked out the door.

Heather was silent from the shock.

This was the first time she had experienced anything like this.

When she was younger, the only people around her were servants or her family.

None of them would dare do this to her.

Now that she was an adult and had met all sorts of men, anyone who tried to get close to her was beaten and thrown out the door.

Over time, anyone who even had the thought of approaching her was driven away by her murderous aura.

As for Ralph...

Could it be due to the unusual circumstances they were forced into? Was it that she had let her guard down? Maybe it was because no one had ever talked to her like this before...

Once she had returned to her senses, she reflexively reached out to grab his wrist.

"Stop!"

Ralph's heart skipped a beat, and he stopped dead in his tracks, standing up straight.

Although he didn't look back, he secretly cursed himself for how he reacted.He had expected her to stop him.

After all, no woman could resist when he pulled this trick on them.

However, his body trembled when he heard Heather’s voice.

Even if he didn't turn his head, he was still stunned.

Once he gathered his thoughts, he reminded himself not to be cowardly.

Otherwise, he would be stepped on for the rest of his life.

That way, he would never be able to take over the Riggs properties.

Ralph slowly turned his head to look at her.

"Heather..."

He paused.

Seeing that she didn't push him away, he licked his lips, which caused a burst of pain.

He endured the pain and continued, "I know you have your concerns, and I also know that people like us do not have many choices.

"I'm aware of what I am in the eyes of others.I'm just a Russell with no real power to my name.With you by my side, I'd definitely climb the social ladder.Whatever it is, I wish you all the happiness in the world."

He smiled helplessly and said, "Please let me go."

"Shut up!"

Heather yelled.

"That's a bunch of nonsense! "Who do you take me for? Can my marriage be called on and off just like that? When I haven't even spoken, how can you say anything? We're getting married, I'Il tell you that much.Don't even think about calling the marriage off!"

Although her tone was fierce, her eyes were not as murderous as before.

They even looked a little gentle.

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 998

Ralph was secretly delighted to hear this, but he continued to add fuel to the fire.

"If you're scared that others might talk about you, Tcan-"

"I said, shut up! Whoever dares to criticize me will face my wrath, including you!"

Then she yanked his wrist forcefully.

He had more to say, but the force she exerted was so sudden and intense that his body was pulled forward involuntarily, and his lips were pressed against hers again. Ralph was stunned.

‘What is this woman playing at? This isn't going as planned.Wasn't it just a while ago that she hated and bit me? Why is she taking the initiative now?’ Ralph was confused.

This was the first time he didn't enjoy a kiss.

It seemed like she was inexperienced as she abruptly pressed her lips against his.

The wound on his lips was still fresh, causing it to reopen.

Not only was it excruciatingly painful for him, but it was also mixed with the taste of blood.

It was bizarre! Before he could react, Heather's next move creeped him out even more.

It seemed she also tasted the blood, so she stuck her tongue out and licked it! Then, she began to suck on it, worsening the pain.

‘F*ck! This woman is insane!’ Then, another thought popped up in his mind, 'Could it be that this is her fetish? Impossible! If we get married, how can I stand this?"

Thinking of this, Ralph began to panic a little and subconsciously pushed her away forcefully.

"Heather, stop.Don't do this!"

Heather was still enjoying the kiss, which tasted like iron, when she was suddenly pushed away.

This left her bewildered and dissatisfied.She had only smelled people's blood when she fought them.

This was her first time tasting blood, and it turned out that it tasted a little sweet.

On top of that, kissing wasn't as disgusting as she thought it was, either.

This man, who was once worthless in her eyes, suddenly gained a little bit of merit.

While Heather had her realization, Ralph, on the other hand, was entirely uncomfortable.

His lips were in excruciating pain, and he was shocked by the woman's attitude.

One second, she was as cold as ice, and the next, she was kissing and sucking his blood.

At this point, his heart was beating frantically.He felt he needed to calm down and think about his next step.He couldn't stay here any longer.

"Let's all...calm down first!"

Saying this, he took off running.

This time, Heather did not stop him.

She remained where she was and licked her bottom lip, which still had his blood on it.

'How...interesting! So this is what kissing feels like.Not too bad!'

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 999

Ralph tossed and turned the entire night, thinking about how he should treat that crazy woman the next day.

After much consideration, he finally got dressed and headed downstairs, realizing that apart from his mother and sister, Heather was nowhere around.

The house was quiet as everyone ate breakfast, and nothing seemed unusual.

"Where's Heather?" he asked suspiciously.

"A lady like her would never want to eat commoners’ food," Celine muttered coldly.

She did not have a good impression of Heather ever since yesterday.

Although Celine disliked Lily, that woman lived elsewhere and not in the Russell Estate.

Celine did not have to see Lily if she did not want to.

However, Heather was different.

She had already moved in before even marrying Ralph, and seeing how overbearing Heather was yesterday, Celine knew she might be even worse in the future.

With Margaret still around, Celine was safe.

When Margaret passed away one day, Celine feared Heather would convince Ralph to kick her out.

With that thought in mind, Celine immediately decided that she would have a backup plan for herself.

"Enough,"

Margaret reprimanded softly before turning to look at Ralph.

"Heather has something she needs to do, so she left early this morning.As a woman in charge of such a big family business, it's natural for her to be busy.Once you two are married, remember to help share her burdens."

"Of course, Mom," Ralph replied as he walked down the stairs.

Margaret's poor eyesight did not notice the wound on his lips until he came closer.It was so red and swollen that it looked scary.

"What happened to your mouth?!" She exclaimed.

Ralph subconsciously raised his hand to touch his lips.His face began to burn.He was about to come up with an excuse when Celine put down her bowl of porridge and snorted.

"Mom, do you still have to ask about things like these? Some people were so excited last night that they couldn't wait until they got into the room."

This caught Ralph off guard.

‘So, she saw us"

Celine ignored how Ralph looked and continued muttering thoughtfully, "Who would've thought that the cold and arrogant Ms. Riggs has such a passionate side? Ralph, I'm happy for you. However, remember that the Russells are no less powerful than her family.

"You shouldn't stoop too low for her. She might have tricks up her sleeves, so you should be careful!" "l know,"

Ralph answered before taking his coat and getting ready to leave.

"Are you not going to have breakfast?" Margaret called out behind him.

"No, I'm heading out."

With that, he left the house.

Back then, Heather was just a political marriage to him.

Now, his interest in her had grown.

This woman was gentle yet domineering, obedient yet ruthless.

Although he did not understand her, it made her interesting and exciting to be around.

Lily was in a particularly happy mood.

She was out the whole morning, and now that she was finally going home, it was rare for her to feel so relaxed.

Since she was pregnant, Alexander had restricted her from doing many things.

Although he did not tell her what not to do, there were always bodyguards by her side, which she deemed pretty troublesome.

When Lily joked that even with all the bodyguards’ skills combined, they would not be as good as her, Alexander did not deny it.

Instead, he sent more bodyguards to her.

Lily knew he was just protecting her, so she stopped protesting.

She faintly felt Alexander had become tenser since Justin showed up the other day.

However, she decided not to ask any more questions since he did not say anything.

She felt slightly useless as she had not been to the studio recently.

Apart from taking care of the plants, she watched TV.

Today, she went to the mall and bought several new essential oils that she thought were unique.

Immediately after, she wanted to go back and look into their components.

Just as the car turned the corner and was about to reach the house, it was blocked.

Spoiled by Mr. Russell Chapter 1000

A black car was blocking the way at the gate.

Lily’s driver frowned and muttered, "Does he not know he's blocking someone's entrance?"

Then he honked twice.

However, the other car did not move, even though it was evident the driver was still in the car.

It seemed the other driver was doing this on purpose.

Lily's driver began to feel anxious as he honked again, and the bodyguards with her were also on guard since this was unusual.

Just as they were about to get down, the car suddenly reversed, turned around, and left unexpectedly.

Everyone thought that whoever was in the car must have had bad intentions.

No one expected the other person to drive away like that.

Still, Lily's driver was tense.

He did not move the car for another two minutes until he could no longer see the other car’s silhouette.

Then he let out a sigh of relief.

"Maniac!"

Only then did he start the car and drive in.

Lily glanced in the direction where the car drove off, thinking it was not as simple as it seemed.

The driver in the car seemed to be looking at her, but she could not tell who it was through the glass.

After that, everything continued as usual.

That evening, Alexander called, saying he would return late.

After all, it was the end of the year.

The company was bustling with things to do and was not limited to only domestic businesses.

Alexander had already put off all his overseas deals because of her pregnancy.

However, there was still work for him to deal with.

As for the car this morning, Lily did not bring it up.

Firstly, she did not think it was a big deal since the other party did nothing, and she had no idea why they were there.

Secondly, she did not want to add to the pile of things Alexander had to worry about.

"Don't wait for me tonight, and sleep early after dinner.It's cold today.Are the heaters on?"

Alexander asked one question after the other.

"It's not like you don't live here.How can you not know?"

Lily retorted as she smilingly twisted her hair with one hand.

Her hair was longer now as she had not cut it since she got pregnant.

Alexander laughed when he heard that.

"I'll be back as soon as I can."

"All right."

After two seconds of silence, Lily thought he had hung up when his voice sounded.

"Do you miss me?"
