Chapter 261 Marriage

Elly choked up when she heard the topic of marriage. She coughed and flushed.

Alex quickly slapped her on the back and scolded her, "Why are you in such a hurry? Do you want to marry me so soon?"

She pushed his hand away and picked up the mouth of the water cup beside her, squinting with wet waves that were not enough to threaten. "Don't be paranoid. Did you get very drunk?"

Alex bit his lip, his voice intermittent, "You gave me a son. If you don't marries me, who else can you marry?"

Elly stared at him, shy and silent, pretending to bow her head to eat.

Alex happily, ate the food and then turned to answer Prosperity's research.

"Getting married is not an easy thing. When everything is arranged, I will prepare a formal and grand wedding for her."

Elly bowed her head and stuffed the rice into her mouth, her cheeks flushed, and pretended not to hear what he said.

"Congratulations. I also hope to find a boyfriend like Alex." Rosalyn pretended to sigh. "Mrs. Elly, you'd better hurry up before he gets caught in the street."

Emily did not speak to participate in the conversation but suddenly sniffed dismissively, making the cheerful atmosphere awkward.

Rosalyn was not angry but remained calm and asked Emily inexplicably. "What does Snotlout mean?"

Emily glanced at mockery. "Anyway, you and I both know there's no need to pretend here. Everyone is smart."

Even Alex, who had been indifferent to the women's dispute, was surprised to see the two tits for tat.

Elly asked curiously. "What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing." The two answered in unison, then stared at each other, turned around, and ignored each other.

The atmosphere suddenly changed, and Elly and Alex looked at each other, which was difficult to understand.

Elly knew that the two had conflicts since the old times, but she didn't understand Emily's words, so she adjusted the atmosphere in the room.

"All right, stop it, the food is getting cold. Aunt Mathilda's cooking is very good. We should try it."

She kept feeding the three people so that the atmosphere would not become sullen.

In the evening in his room, Alex came back from his study and looked at Elly lying in the quilt, and curiously asked, "What is that?"

Elly said frankly, "I've been thinking about what Emily said at dinner. Did it mean anything about what happened in the past?"

Mr. Alex was very clever, but he can't read a woman's heart. Elly did not say that Emily had put pressure on Elly's curiosity about the past, and he could not guess the tension between the two women.

"If you go to Emily, I have something to tell you." He picked up the blanket and got into the back of her head and stroked her skinny arm with his hand." She wanted a loan. It was a lot of money."

"30 million?" Elly opened her eyes wide and didn't believe her ears. "Why does she need so much money?"

"She said she wanted to buy a house and move out. I don't think it's as simple as an explanation. This is so unusual."

She looked up at his thoughtful look and held out her hand with a beard on his chin "Didn't you arrange for a secret person to spy on her? Did you find anything unusual?"

"Her behavior is very organized, only from my house to my studio. There are no strange places, no strangers."

Elly agreed to the result. She saw Emily go out to work and get off work like everyone else. She works hard and had no abnormal behavior.

"If she behaves normally and moves out without bothering you, a loan will happen sooner or later." Alex's voice was unhappy or sad.

"Was there anything we didn't knows?" Elly was still worried. "You should watch a little longer. Don't pull anyone back."

Alex nodded and asked for her advice. "So, what do you think of the loan?"

Elly did not answer immediately. She thought for a long time and answered with uncertainty. "I don't trust her. I still think something fishy is going on."

"I agree with you." He bent down, pried his chin on her forehead, and made a quick decision." I'll pay first to see what her next move is."

Elly saw Alex push his face away and said that this was the best way to show her true intention. "Aren't you afraid of her cheating?"

"Am I missing some change?" His voice was unhappy, and he looked at her with dissatisfaction. "Do you think your husband is poor and has few zeros?"

"Yes, Mr. Alex is great." Elly teased him in a loud voice, only to be pressed on the bed, his lips swallowed and blown into his strong desire.

Under the dazed line of sight after the long kiss, she only remembered one thing. 'Turn off the lights.'

The private sleeping position was immersed in the warm orange light, the two bodies are intertwined, constantly in need of love, constantly satisfying the original desire.

The next day, Alex called Emily into the study to talk.

Emily pushed the door and was relieved to think that the money had been settled.

Alex sat on the leather chair, his careless hands on the table, and the eagle's eyes looked at her as if he had read the hidden thoughts inside.

She bent down and sat down in the chair.

Alex pushed the prepared check to Emily. "This is 30 million."

She didn't expect him to be so generous and happily held out her hand to claim it, but he translated the check back.

"What do you mean?"

Alex's face was very serious, "This was not a small sum of money. We should state clearly when the original debt and interest rate will be repaid each month. Since you don't have a mortgage, you have to write me a loan. Signing and stamping are indispensable."

"Do you borrow money? interest rate?" Her voice was shaking.

"Yes, I will be charging 1% less than the bank."

Emily stood up, flushed, and asked sarcastically because of anger. "How many years has our relationship been less than 30 million?"

"You and I have nothing to do with each other, just two strangers. Money, not to mention feelings." Alex shook two fingers and disagreed with her.

"It's shameless."

"I'm not a philanthropist."

Emily was out of breath. "You are so cruel!"

She turned around and walked away hard. As soon as she touched the doorknob, she heard Alex's faint voice ringing behind her, "Do you still want to borrow money?"

"Thank you for your concern."

So angry that he rushed to the top of his head, Emily closed the door and left.

Alex's face never changed from beginning to end, and he remained ruthless.

"Let's see how many days you can last."

"You press a sequence and tell each other. I want to know everyone she touches, but where she went."

"Yes, sir."

He switched to the company's internal machine and pressed Gerald's secretary number. "I checked the nearest phone, Alex."

After Dimitri's suicide failed to find out, the impact of Alex and Elly's activities has not yet ended.

Sitting in the car, watching reporters and fans gather around the door of the design room, Elly held her forehead with a headache.

"When will the storm pass?" Elly sighed. "If it lasts too long, the work of the design studio will also be affected."

"I advise that you worry about your safety."

Elly didn't want to do this, but this was the best solution. She sighed helplessly and nodded. "Listen to me. There's nothing I can do."

In order to avoid emergencies, Elly stayed at the house to work and did not go out. There are always people around to get information about her.

One day, she received a call from Rosalyn.

"Mrs. Elly do you have a minute?"
