Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 934

Chapter 934 Resentment

It was inconvenient for them to stay in a hotel all the time, so Alexander decided to splurge on a house in the city. He brought Elise over to take a look at the place after the cleaners had tidied the place a little.

The house was rather old, and its design seemed unique to its previous owner. Furthermore, it was located right in the middle of the city, which made Elise worry about the price of the place. “It probably costs a lot to buy an antique house located in a place like this, right?”

“As long as you enjoy your stay, my love.” Alexander’s words were sweeter than honey. Elise didn’t respond to his words and simply walked around to check out the rest of the house.

“Other than the utilities, most of the other furnishings are kept the way they were before,” Alexander explained as he trailed along behind Elise. He recalled how Elise appreciated old and vintage items—he knew that she liked things that had a story behind them.

Cittadel wasn’t a place with much history, so Alexander figured that he could fulfill Elise’s wishes now that they were in Wegas. Elise finally cracked a smile after she found a functioning phonograph that had been preserved throughout the years.

She turned around and hooked her arms around Alexander’s neck before she got on her tiptoes to give him a peck on the lips. “I love it. Thanks, darling.” It was rare for Elise to take initiative. Alexander felt his heart fluttering and his body burning up in response to her actions.

“It’s been a long day. Why don’t we take a shower?” Alexander suggested out of nowhere. “That’s a good idea.” Elise loosened her arms around him before she skipped around in circles.

“We should have a celebration tonight since it’s our first night in the new house,” she uttered. Alexander strode over and swept her off her feet before heading up the stairs. “What I meant was for us to shower together,” he uttered with an expressionless look on his face.

Elise blushed the moment she realized what he was saying. “Did you please me with all these things just because you wanted to do this?” Her face was burning.

“I’m not that shallow of a person, Elise.” The look on Alexander’s face was as calm as ever. “You’re happy, and the mood is right. You should think about my happiness too, right? Stop being so selfish.”

“Me, selfish?” Elise bit onto his neck as revenge. Alexander hissed in pain, and he halted his footsteps as he was afraid that he would accidentally bump into something and hurt Elise by accident. Since Elise had released her frustration, she stopped biting him and stared at him with a smug look on her face. It was almost as if she was a child who had just successfully pranked him. “Are you afraid now? Hmph!” she uttered in a haughty tone.

Alexander couldn’t help but laugh. Soon enough, Elise found herself in a completely vulnerable position. She had given up—she knew that there was no escape for her right then.

The man’s promises meant nothing when it came to their activities in bed. Elise was so exhausted that she slept through the evening after they were done. She was awakened by a knock on the door.

She was drowsy and dazed, and she thought that the knock was just her imagination until a louder sound followed the initial knock. Bang, Bang!

She was so shocked that she leaped out of bed immediately. “Darling?” She called for Alexander without opening her eyes, but no one responded to her calls. Only then did she realize that he might have headed out to pick up the kids.

Bang! Bang! “Open the door!” The person downstairs shouted while banging on the door. Elise frowned when she realized how this seemed like what a drunken person would do.

She tidied the bed a little before she headed downstairs, mentally prepared for whatever was waiting at the door. When she finally opened the door, she found Jamie in a long, pastel yellow dress and a bottle of liquor in one hand. He looked as if he had just cried for hours.
