The president's seventh bride novel Chapter 64

He knew she was avoiding him. A woman took the initiative to confess her love to a man, but she was rejected cruelly, absolutely he could understand the embarrassment and disappointment she felt, so these days he had been thinking about how to ease the tension between them.

After thinking again and again, he sent her a text message, "Are you free tonight? We should talk to each other."

Waiting for a half hour, he did not receive her reply, he then directly dialed her number, but she didn’t not answer it.

He then called her for several times again, Alicia still didn’t answer the phone. Instead of saying "She didn’t answer the phone," it would be fairer to say, "She didn’t have the courage to answer the phone". She was afraid that Carlos would said to her, "Since we can not be together like we used to be, then let’s break up."

She knew very well how short Carlos's marriages were, and she knew even better that, to date, her marriage to Carlos had lasted exactly three months only.

His words were still ringing in her ears on the day of the wedding, but she didn't expect time would pass so quickly, and in a blink, it was time to end it.

"At 6:00 pm, I'll be waiting for you at 35°C, see you later."

The second text message from Carlos came, and Alicia fell into a deep thought.

At 5:00 pm, after a meeting, Carlos was ready to go to 35℃, and called Alicia before leaving, but she still refused to answer the phone.

Alex opened the door and came in, he saw Carlos’s gloomy expression, and asked sportively, "be troubled by love, right?"

"Stop talking nonsense."

"Do you dare to say you're not attracted to your new wife? Do you know how long you've been married with her?" Alex pointed to the calendar by his table, "Total three months, breaking the record of your six previous marriages."

If Alex did not remind him, Carlos really did not think that he and Alicia had been together for three months, at the same time, he also suddenly understood the reason why she did not answer the phone.

He quickly edit a text message and sent it to her, "I have something to talk to you, but it’s not about divorce."

He thought Alicia would answer the phone, but again, she still did not answer it, he could not help but feel a bit upset, throwing the phone to the table.

"There are only two possibilities for a woman not to answer a man’s phone, she either loves the man too much or hates the man too much."

Alex asserted with certainty, Carlos did not respond.

"Maybe she is resenting herself for loving you too much."

He continued to say, Carlos replied to him snappishly, "That is the story only for Romeo and Juliet."

"Then just tell me frankly, do you really have no feelings to Alicia?"

Alex had been working with Carlos for more than ten years, they were close friends, that was why he dared to talk to him like that.

"You know very well who is the person in my heart."

"Then there will not be no feelings at all, right? The fact is that you can have a lot of other feelings to her, such as family or friendship affections?"

"Yes, I have other feelings to her. But I can't say it clearly."

"What feelings that can not say clearly?"

Carlos sighed slightly, "She is more than a friend, but lees than a lover to me."

"That is the family affection, it’s all clear, right?"

"Maybe."

He got up and looked at the watch on his wrist, "I have to go now, don't you get off work?"

"I am leaving as well."

Carlos sat in the box of 35℃, waiting for Alicia's arrival. Although he knew she might not be in a good mood, but he believed that she would come, because she was not the kind of woman who would always run away from reality.

In fact, he still knew her, Alicia did come. Although she was seemed in a good mood, but looking at her eyes deeply, the sorrow still could been seen.

"Are you going to keep avoiding me like this?"

Carlos looked straight at her and asked helplessly.

"No, I just want to wait until my mood is completely set before facing you."

"I'm sorry if I make you sad, I'm not a good man, but Alicia you are a good woman, I do not deny that I have a feeling for you, but this can not be a reason for me to accept you, because in my heart, Dulcie has never left, in such a case, if I accept you, it is unfair to you, to myself is also a burden. It is impossible to have two women in my heart at the same time. On the surface I love you, but deep in my heart, I love another woman. This kind of love, I believe it is also not what you want."

"Yes, I understand."

Alicia suppressed the great sadness that welled up in her heart and said with a forced smile, "Let’s order something to eat, I'm hungry."

"Okay."

Carlos knew she was sad, but couldn't comfort her. Because from his standpoint, comforting her made him like a hypocrite.

He ordered many sumptuous dishes, Alicia picked up the chopsticks and smiled bitterly, "You really don't love me, half of these dishes are not my favorite."

Carlos was a little embarrassed, "Then I'll ask them to remove some and re-serve."
