Chapter 142 Mask

The dreamy sight made it impossible for Alex to act as sober as usual. Alex looked at Elly blankly, the rare soft light in his eyes looked at her without blinking, and there was a doting smile on the corners of his mouth.

Even though she was still sleeping, Alex was satisfied enough as long as he quietly looked at her intoxicated face in that way, even though the two of them did not speak.

Since Elly came back five years ago, Alex gradually got into the habit of not expecting too much. He didn't expect her to treat him like she did before the divorce and dared not ask for unrequited love. He hoped that she would not run away from him, as long as he agreed to allow her to accompany him, he was willing to accept the love or hate from her side.

Alex brain scanned what happened last night, and he vaguely guessed everything after he fainted. Elly took care of him all night. He looked exhausted. He was happy and sad. He stretched out his hand and sprinkled her hair on her forehead.

Alex felt each other's skin that it rubbed deeply, but he didn't think that it was enough. Alex, he was aware of his sleeping habits, he looked at her for five seconds, bent down his head and gently stroked her lips.

The tenderness of the lips, coupled with the smell of her breath, it stimulated the cells in Alex's body. The blood in his body sprang up and his fingertips was excited. He kissed her lips with his and tasted the sweetness of the forbidden fruit.

Alex heart in the bosom and was trembling, it revealed the sad secret of happiness.

Alex did not stick out his tongue, but his greedy lips was biting her lips, he hooked up like a criminal until he heard Elly's tiny moan.

Alex laid in bed, his eyes closed. He was pretending to be asleep, his heart was beating like a drum and his ears were listening upright to the movement around him.

Elly frowned and slowly opened her eyes, she found herself laid on the bed.

In the morning, Elly saw a mouth of the strange man opened slightly, she reached out and touched it. She blushed and looked at the saliva on the sheet. Elly moved a little, because she felt a great pain in her back. She stretched out her body, and she shouted the man who was also lying in bed. She massaged her neck, stroke it, and whispered. "You almost broke my neck."

Elly twisted her neck left and right to relieve the pain. She did not recognize Alex with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

Just then, the door was pushed open, and Elly was startled, but soon turned into indifference. Her mouth was slightly open and her voice was insensible. "Brandon, long time no see."

Brandon was surprised and his disgruntled tone sounded with his eyebrows. "Why are you here? Who gave you permission to get close to him?"

Brandon's face was full of questions, Elly just shrugged her shoulders and staggered back and forth. "Brandon, what's the relationship between you and Alex? You think you're his father?" She bluntly said.

"What are you talking about?"

Elly's words not only dimmed Brandon's face, but also it upset Alex.

"When did you start to speak harshly?"

Although Alex was dissatisfied he did not show it, he continued to pretend to be sound asleep and his face was stiff. Elly looked at the door, so she didn't see Alex, but Brandon found that the corner of Alex's mouth moved very clearly.

He thought Alex awake.

Brandon thought about it and walked back. His attitude immediately softened from anger, his eyes were pleading, and he said to Elly. "I know why you came back this time, but what happened in the past you either regret it or not, can you give Alex a chance?"

She understated, she listened sincerely to his inner thoughts. "You've been missing for a year, and it's hard for him to find you and he never give up. A year of his life is here but his mind was with you, and his experience is not easier than yours. You need to stop torturing Alex."

"He asked for it!" Elly retorted loudly, she was denying Brandon's dissuasion.

She let her voice be heard by Alex, so he would know her resentment. Elly's heart rolled up pain, but Elly did not realize this, she was still as stubborn as a child. "At first I chased him and despicably begged him to look at me. I was not as good as a dog in his eyes. And now he pretends to love someone else. No one wants that cheap taste."

Brandon was surprised by Elly's angry words. He didn't expect to hear such a bad words from her, but this was what he wanted.

Brandon went to the hospital bed and deliberately whispered, "Mr. Alex is a good friend of mine. I know very well how sincere he is to you. I wish you would stop hurting him. "

Brandon's words were like a joke to Elly, which sounds ironic and ridiculous.

She clearly remembered a year ago, Brandon told her the truth, and he was reminding her that John had something to do with Alex. He claimed that Alex was just trying to use her.

Had his mind changed, or was he a fake two-faced man?

Elly was very cold, she did not care what kind of person he was. His voice responded, and the mood was very angry. His speech made her very confused. "I don't care what his feelings are, I just want to have nothing to do with him. Instead of reminding me, why not try to be a good friend and dissuade him from interfering in my life." Elly said.

Alex could no longer pretended to be stupid. He pulled up the quilt and sat up and emphasized it word for word. "Do you think I'm interrupting your life? I'm so annoyed right now, aren't I?"

Alex suddenly woke up. Elly had no time to react. She looked at him naively, confused and unable to explain.

He was silent, he grabbed her hand that was still on his bed, and squeezed it tightly. "If I'm a problem, why did you pick me up at the bar in the middle of the night? Why didn't you leave me in the alley? Why are you wasting your time and energy on troubles with me?"

Every problem, she cared about him, even a little bit was enough. Unfortunately, in answer to the question, she was whipped hard. She rubbed her red wrist and stared at him.

"The bartender from the bar called me. I don't think a bad guy like you had any friends to pick you up. I took you to the hospital because I was afraid you might get a high fever or die because of a fever. But you should know that if you hadn't left my phone number in your contacts, the bartender wouldn't call me, am I right?"

At this point, Elly glared and threatened again. "Please change my name that you had saved in your phone book. I don't want people to misunderstand our relationship. I'll fight with you if you don't change it. I'm serious."

With a clear attitude, she was being reasonable and easy to understand. Elly said what she wanted to say. Then she stood up and went straight out of the room. She was ignoring the thoughts in her mind.

The moment she passed on Brandon, Elly squinted at him.

The door slammed and Alex was stunned.

Brandon seized the opportunity to put on airs and sighed powerlessness. "Now you can resign. I miss her every day. I want to know if she is doing well, finally." It turns out that in her heart she hated him and also she cared for him. He had no foothold.

Alex listened to her plea and persuaded Elly, so he did not doubt his words. He was disappointed at Elly's cold reception.

Brandon did not delve into the topic and asked other things curiously. "What nonsense does Ms. Elly say about the phone book? Why did someone in my bar call her?" Brandon bluntly said.

Alex's face was very unnatural. He coughed impatiently and could not help, but he asked other question.

Alex saw his trick and wanted to know. "How did you know I was in the hospital?"

"I passed by a waiter and he saw Elly put you in a taxi. He overheard her urging the driver to go to the hospital. He reported it to me this morning." Brandon answered sincerely.

"I'm fine. I still have a meeting this afternoon, so I doesn't take much time in this hospital". Alex hopes was bury to his head, and he put in front of his mind his work in order to paralyze his mood and reduce the time he spent thinking about Elly.

When the elevator opened, Elly was startled by the cute figure in the elevator.

Elly was shock with her mouth open, she wanted to scream, but suddenly she thought of something, she ran out of the elevator and looked behind her to make sure that no one else hesitated to make call. "Mom?"

The tiny cry made Elly's eyes red. She liked the sound very much and looked forward to it in every sleep. After everything that had happened, Kitten was still affectionately called her a mother, and she could not hold on any longer.

"Nurse, I'm sorry I don't recognize you. Kitten must hate her mother very much, right?"

Under her sinful eyes and painful face, Kitten shook his head. "No, I don't hate my mother. I'll love you forever."

She leaned to his cheek, stroked his cheek, and then turned to explain. "I know your Dad is very strict. I have no choice but to avoid you. I don't blame you. I have my own reason."

These words could not be formed in the mind of the five-year-old kid. Elly asked curiously, while she was hugging him and kissing him on his both cheeks. "Who told you that?"

A dumbfounded, proud, and in a boastful voice. "My dad. After you left with that pesky uncle the other day, he explained to me, then we went to the restaurant and ordered all the dishes I want."
