An Ice Queen for sale (Alice) novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171 Easy life 

my mood got better too. We dressed up, and we went down together. 

After the bath, I felt my energy came back, and my 

“Are you ready to eat? Nora asked us with a smile. 

“Yes, please.” Gideon answered her. She nodded and left to the kitchen. We sat down in the dining room. I wondered what kind of food she made. 

The starter was some mixed vegetable soup which tasted nice, the main course was sirloin steak, like both of us liked it. She put some salad next to mine, and Gideon got some tries too. The dessert was some jelly with fruits for me, and lemon cheesecake for Gideon. I have to admit that I was impressed. She did not just make healthy and tasty food, but she also knew that I eat differently from Gideon. 

*Nora, that was delicious. Thank you.” I told her while she took our plates. 

“Mine was delicious too.” Gideon added. 

Somehow, her smile was more honest when Gideon thanked her, but I tried to ignore this kind of thinking. 

When six o’clock finally came, and we had dinner, she tidied the kitchen up, and that was the time for her to leave. I felt much better when she shut the door behind her. I watched her from the window while she sat in her car and she drove out of our yard. 

“What are you doing, Alice?” Gideon’s voice made me jump. I put my hand on my chest. 

“Nothing. I just watched her leave.” 

He smiled while frowned. 

“Why?” 

“I don’t know, Gideon. I may be paranoid, but there is something about her I don’t like.” 

He pulled me closer and hugged me. 

“Alice, both my father and your father checked everything about her. They would have found something if there would be something to find.” *True.” I said while I leaned my head on his chest 

“Just give her time. You might like her later. If not, then we are going to look for someone else. Okay? 

I nodded, then I lifted my head up, as I just remembered something. 

“What time do you leave? 

About t 

tenor eleven. You’ll be asleep by then.” 

“Couldn’t you stay?” 

He looked at me. 

“Alice, I’d love to stay, but I have to help Seth.” 

I exhaled while I put my head back on his chest. 

“You know Alice, probably Leah is thinking the same, and if I help him, both of us can be home earlier.” 

“True” I said again. 

“Riccardo’s people are all around the house. Nothing can happen, okay?” 

I looked at and I smiled. 

He smiled back at me, then he kissed my lips lightly 

“Come on, loe queen, I have to put you in bed.” I laughed at this sentence. No one ever called me like that. 

We walked up into the bedroom, and he literally put me into bed. He laid next to me and kept me in his arms. He set his alarms on just in case he would 

fall asleep, and feeling his arms around me, smelling his nice scented perfume which he always used, made me fall asleep soon, 

My alarm woke me up. It was still dark. I was sad to find the place next to me empty. I got up, and when I checked my phone, a message made me 

“Call me 

Call me when you are up. I love you.” 

I finished in the bathroom, and I just had my morning shake when I called him. 

“Have you had a nice sleep!” 

“Yes, I just missed you from next to me 

He chuckled 

“I’m sure I’ll miss you as well. It will be weint to sleep alone.” 

I smiled. 

“What time are you coming home?” 

“Soon, I’m afraid we’ll just miss each other. But probably tomorrow I’ll be at home when you get up.” 

“That would be nice. Have you had a busy night?” 

“Yes, very busy, so I don’t think I will have any problem falling asleep,” 

“Just sleep as early as you can, so you can be up with me after I finish my training.” 

“Yes, I will.” 

I just looked at the clock, and I realised I must leave. 

“Gideon, I have to leave now.” 

“Yeah, I know, just drive carefully. Okay?”
