Chapter 71: Chapter 71

Alexa, who noticed the cold and vicious aura around her, immediately scolded Ray so that he would talk a lot of nonsense. Ray fed her again, rubbing her wet lips as she chewed. Didn't forget to give a satisfied smile.

Fran said, "So you guys were secretly married?"

The porridge in her mouth squirted out as she coughed.

Ray was annoyed, ignoring Fran completely. "Be careful, everything gets dirty. Don't listen to the stupid talk of lonely singles."

Fran, "..."

Fran, who was seriously injured seeing this intimacy, couldn't resist taking a knife and stabbing his bastard friend. Instead, he took his bowl of food and threw it in the trash.

Alexa blinked. "You threw the bowl away too?"

Fran's eyes were dead. "I'm enough with you. You're two polluting everything here. Leave!"

.................?

The next day, Alexa woke up with a lighter body than yesterday. The cold was still there and her head was still dizzy, but it wasn't bad anymore. After sleeping for a long time she really felt her energy was full.

She has hardly been sick for two years. When she felt it now, she thought about starting to maintain a diet like Ray usually did at home. She already had Fillo to look after, she couldn't be careless about her health.

The door to her room opened and Fillo ran to hug her.

"Mom, you awake! Are you feeling better now?" Fillo looked at her innocently, then nestled his head in her neck.

Maggy came behind him with a tray of food.

Alexa was a little uncomfortable seeing that old housemaid. Even though she had already left this villa, now she was back again because of Ray's coercion. She must be giving Maggy a lot of trouble.

"Maggy, what are you doing?" Alexa got up and sat down. "If I'm hungry, I'll go downstairs to grab my food."

Maggy smiled. "This is a direct order from the host, I'm just carrying it out."

Alexa was helpless. Just like when she couldn't refuse when Ray insisted on taking her to this villa again last night. Once she was stubborn, somehow he became more stubborn too. He stated the reason that Fillo was still vulnerable and could not be contaminated with the cold virus, and finally silenced her on the spot.

"Where's Ray?" Alexa received water from Maggy."

"He has gone to work today. He specifically asked me to look after his future wife."

Alexa coughed loudly.

Maggy took the glass and handed her a tissue with a satisfied face. "Do you still feel uncomfortable? Eat, then take medicines and lie down."

OK, so she was considered a critical patient now.

After the coughing stopped, she looked at the old housemaid. "I'll eat later. You can go. Don't delay your work because of me."

Maggy agreed. "Little Master, come on, it's time to go. Don't disturb your mom rest."

At that time, Alexa realized that her son was wearing neat clothes. "Is this his order too?"

Maggy nodded. Knew who Alexa meant by 'his'.

"Okay." Alexa lifted the kid's face and rubbed his cheek. "Come on, Fillo, follow Grandma Maggy. Go and have fun, okay?"

"But, I want to accompany you. You're sick and I have to look after you until you get better, right, Mom?" Fillo's voice trembled as if he was about to cry.

Alexa and Maggy exchanged glances.

Usually if Fillo didn't want to go, it will be difficult for him to be on the playground. Since his heart wouldn't be there, leaving him there like that wasn't very good. But if they don't want Fillo to get infected, Alexa still has to keep him away for a moment.

She finally sold Ray on a whim. "If you behave well, won't Uncle Ray grant all your wishes? You promised him, right?"

The kid's head looked up.

"Uncle Ray only grants good children's wishes, doesn't he?"

Fillo nodded.

"So?"

"Mn." The boy nodded again. "I'll be good, Mom. I want to take shrimp from the sky!"

Maggy chuckled.

Alexa couldn't say anything.

She didn't know what that rotten man taught her son. And how could her son obey when she was selling his name so cheaply like this!

They really were father and son!

At the office, Adam entered without knocking. This time Ray was used to it and thought about cutting the salary of this naughty driver.

"Mr. Sanders, this is data regarding Bryan Wallace."

Ray opened the document that Adam had placed and read the biography of the person in question. Find many physical characteristics in detail, even regarding the presence of a mole on the back of the thigh.

Ray frowned. "His eyes are light gray and not blue?"

Adam didn't answer.

Ray remembered that that night he saw Bryan's eyes were blue like his. There was no way it was because of the darkness. Even Alexa once said that Bryan's eyes were blue.

He didn't think much about it and read again. It turned out that Bryan and Alexa were at the same university. It was natural that they were dating in the past.

Looking further into the history, it was stated that Bryan's parents' finances were in a good place before his father finally went bankrupt and their house was confiscated. Bryan himself went to another city for five years after that. And only returned earlier this year after a friend hired him as a barista in a nightclub with a decent salary.

"Wow, that's right. Didn't he come back because he wanted to find Alexa and her son to blackmail her? He's really an inappropriate man!" Ray threw the paper away, massaging his forehead.

"Mr. Sanders, I still have something to find." Adam interrupted him.

Ray asked him to speak.

"Recently, he stopped working and spent a lot of money gambling at a casino." Adam paused, "But according to his financial records, he barely has money to rent a house, let alone to gamble."

Ray's gaze was scornful. "He won the lottery?"

"Someone saw him getting a lot of money after meeting a woman. And it seems like he keeps getting that money periodically."

Ray was confused. What the hell?

He met women periodically and earned money, was he a gigolo? If Ray's conjecture was correct, didn't this prove what an asshole the damn man was!
