No Renewal My Contract Husband (Nella and Alfred) novel Chapter 258

Chapter 258 Too Beautiful to Look Away

“Mrs. Keywood, you look absolutely stunning.”

Just then, the doorbell rang.

The stylist hurried over to open the door.

“Mr. Keywood, you’re here.”

Alfred walked in.

The stylist turned to him, sounding like she was proudly showing off her best work.

“Mr. Keywood, you rarely bring Mrs. Keywood into the public eye. Is it because you don’t want anyone else to see how beautiful she is?”

She was clearly joking.

But when Alfred heard that, his expression stiffened for a moment.

Only he knew the real reason. Back then, their marriage had been kept private. He just didn’t want unnecessary trouble.

His eyes shifted toward Nella, a little awkwardly.

Then Alfred froze.

This was the first time he had ever seen Nella dressed to the nines.

Usually, Nella wore no makeup.

But her skin was fair, and her features were delicate. Even bare-faced, she always looked bright

and attractive.

He finally understood why foolish kings in history would freeze when they saw a great beauty.

Why they would rather lose the whole world for one person.

Why they would do something reckless or destructive just to make her smile once.

His wife was far too beautiful.

Nella felt uncomfortable under his stare.

She deliberately made a small noise, pulling Alfred back to his senses.

The stylist, unaware that they were about to divorce, kept praising them from the side.

She used every flattering word she could think of.

Finally, she gave a grand conclusion.

“You two are a perfect match. If you two appear at the gala tonight, you’ll look better than the leads in any romance drama. No-those leads wouldn’t even compare to you.”

Nella opened her mouth and said nothing.

She felt embarrassed by the praise. She wanted to stop the stylist, but it didn’t seem polite.

Alfred, on the other hand, looked very pleased. The corners of his mouth lifted without him noticing.

After the stylist left, the living room grew quiet. Marshal was off to the side, playing on his own. Only Alfred and Nella remained.

Without anyone else around, Alfred suddenly didn’t know what to do.

He rubbed his palms together without thinking and realized they were damp with cold sweat.

“It’s about time. Let’s head out,” he said.

As he spoke, he naturally picked up Marshal. “We’ll bring Marshal with us too.”

“Is that okay?” Nella asked.

“What if someone doesn’t like dogs? Would that offend the guests?”

She wanted to keep Marshal by her side, but she wasn’t careless about situations like this.

The Keywood Group’s 80th anniversary gala was a big event.

Sergio had said there would be important figures from both business and politics. If Marshal caused any trouble tonight, she worried it might create new problems for the divorce.

“It won’t,” Alfred said calmly. “Tonight is our event, and it’s Marshal’s event too.”

Quietly, Nella slipped her hand into her purse and turned on the recorder.

Then she asked again, “Bringing Marshal really won’t affect anything?”

Alfred’s gaze drifted to her hand inside the bag.

As if he understood what she was doing, a faint, self-mocking smile flashed in his eyes.

She was guarding herself against him.
