My Marriage to a Mute Girl novel Chapter 12

After Alan returned, Diana explained the matter, probably saying a few irrelevant words.

He just casually swept a glance at Lexie in the corner, without taking a position.

Lexie wasn't lost, she had expected this result.

But Edith's heart couldn't help but snicker, it showed that he didn't care about that mute at all in his heart, didn't it?

Edith came forward with a smile on her face and handed the man the coffee she had made long ago, "Alan, have some coffee, it's been a busy day."

Unexpectedly, Alan refused, "No, it's late, you should go back."

Edith's smile froze at the corner of her mouth.

She pretended that she couldn't understand it as if she was being driven away, and was deliberately pretending cute: "Alan, I want to learn something from you, so that I can help my father manage the company in the future, can I?"

Such a delicate and soft girl pouted, and the average man cannot bear to refuse.

Alan, however, narrowed his eyes, "If you don't leave now, you can’t come again."

The scar on his face would make him look badass when he looked at people with a cold gaze.

Edith's face changed slightly before she hurriedly smiled, defusing the embarrassment for herself, "Alright, alright, I know you're afraid that my dad is worried about me, right? Then I'll go home first and come back another day, bye~"

She was still smiling when she left, and as soon as she left the house, her face instantly clouded, and she took one last look at the door with an imperative determination in her eyes.

Lexie brought a cup of brewed oolong tea and put it over after Edith had left.

She knew that Alan liked to make a cup of tea every time he left work, so he did not drink the coffee Edith made.

Lexie subconsciously tensed up, and with her head down, she could still feel his dark gaze falling on her.

"What are you staying here for?"

The corners of Lexie's lips pursed and she raised her eyes to look at him, closing her hands and placing them between her neck and shoulders in a gesture of sleep: [Aren't you going to bed?]

She had only asked casually, but was clearly misunderstood by him.

Alan frowned, "You want to sleep with me?"

Lexie was stunned and shook her head in a hurry.

He strode away, "Since not, leave me alone."
