The president's seventh bride novel Chapter 45

Alicia thought he was joking, so she really lay down. Based on her previous experience, Carlos would definitely avoid her immediately in disgust.

However, it went beyond her expectation this time. Not only did Carlos not avoid her, he also rolled over and pressed her under him.

"Are you serious?"

She stared in amazement and suddenly felt panicked.

"Do you think I’m kidding?"

Carlos stretched his hand to her clothes and began to unbutton the buttons on her chest. One, two… Alicia was completely dumbfounded. She didn’t react until he unbuttoned the third one. She hurriedly reached out to stop him, "No."

"Why?"

He raised his handsome eyebrows. His expression was obviously unhappy.

Alicia hurriedly swallowed her saliva, "It’s that time of the month."

They were all adults. Of course, he knew what she meant. But it was another thing that he believed it or not.

Carlos immediately got away from her, panting and saying, "You’re really troublesome."

Both of them were a little embarrassed. Alicia was even flushed with embarrassment. She got up and ran into the secret room. After closing the door, she lay down on the bed with both hands tightly covering her face.

The next morning, when she went downstairs for breakfast, she was in a very bad spirit. She had always lived a regular life. Suddenly she slept late last night, it was somewhat difficult for her to adapt.

But Carlos didn’t look well, either. He even looked more tired than her.

"Have you two not slept well last night?"

The shrewd Mrs. Sara saw the abnormality of her son and daughter-in-law at a glance.

Alicia didn't know how to answer, so she quietly kicked Carlos. Don't play dumb, okay?

Carlos looked up slightly, and replied calmly, "I almost didn’t sleep last night."

"Huh? Didn't sleep?"

What he said was so astonishing. His parents and sister all looked at them. Mrs. Sara asked Alicia in astonishment, "Alicia, did you not sleep either?"

Alicia was so embarrassed. If she had known such a situation early, she wouldn’t have asked this guy to come out to help her.

"I slept, but I had some nightmares, so I didn't sleep well."

"She dreamed that she was stealing something to eat in the kitchen in the middle of the night and was caught by me."

"You……"

If it was not in front of the whole family, she really wanted to shut his mouth.

"Brother, you’re so funny..."

Aurora looked at the two of them. She tried her best no to laugh out.

Alicia was so regretful, wishing to cut Carlos into pieces. She stretched her hand under the table, and was about to pinch him with all her strength, but was grabbed by his hand first. He held her hand tightly.

This was the first close contact between the two of them. His palms were very hot. She couldn't help but to remember the situation when he unbuttoned her buttons last night. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. She blushed.

All day long, Alicia was in a particularly good mood. Perhaps because her relationship with Carlos became good.

But this good mood did not last long. In the evening, as soon as she returned home, she felt an unprecedented dignified atmosphere.

Mrs. Sara and Aurora were standing in front of Mr. Edward’s study. The expressions on their faces were very worried, as if something unpleasant was happening in the study.

"Mom, what's the matter?"

She walked over and asked with some doubts.

When Mrs. Sara saw Alicia, she seemed to see the hope, "Alicia, give some ideas quickly. Carlos and his Dad are arguing!"

As soon as Mrs. Sara finished speaking, the three of them were stunned by the sound of something falling to the ground.

Alicia was the most shocked. Although Carlos was usually cold and indifferent and didn't seem very close to his parents, he had never quarreled with his parents like this before. At this moment, the intensity of the quarrel could not be concealed even through a heavy door.

"Mom, let's go in."

She stretched out her hand to push the door, but the door couldn't be opened. Aurora said in a trembling voice, "It's useless. The door was locked by them from inside."

"What can we do?"

The arguing continued to escalate. The sound of falling objects was mixed with fierce quarrels, making Alicia, who had always been the calmest, panicked. She didn’t know what to do.
