The Loser Ex-Wife Came Back Hot novel Chapter 19

"Get in."

The chauffeur stepped out and held the door open for Alaric.

Looking slightly rigid, Alaric slid into the backseat. Nova climbed in right after him.

Noticing his unease, she offered a reassuring smile. "Relax. My parents are great. They just really hate Caleb."

Alaric stayed quiet.

The chauffeur, however, kept glancing at him through the rearview mirror.

Their young lady had recently broken off her engagement with the Langdon family in a spectacular explosion of drama. Why on earth was she suddenly so chummy with the illegitimate son?

The ride to the Donald Estate was quick.

As soon as Nova and Alaric stepped through the grand foyer, the mouth-watering aroma of dinner drifted down the hall.

"Let's eat first," Nova said. "You can't work out on an empty stomach."

"That's not necessary, I—"

"Nova! Take your shoes off and come eat!"

Mrs. Donald's cheerful voice cut off Alaric's polite refusal.

When she bustled into the entryway, she finally noticed the tall boy standing next to her daughter.

"Alaric?"

She remembered him from a few formal visits to the estate years ago.

Mr. Donald wandered down the sweeping staircase, looking equally bewildered.

Didn't their daughter despise the Langdon family?

Why was she bringing Alaric home?

"Mom, Dad, Alaric is going to be my personal trainer. Set an extra plate for him every night from now on."

Nova dropped the bomb casually, leaving absolutely no room for Alaric to argue.
