Alejandro immediately lost interest after Mark left. He got up, straightened his collar, and left as well.
He returned to Smith Manor, reeking of alcohol. The silence in the manor was unsettling. He was drunk, and his mind was muddled from alcohol. He stumbled his way upstairs, calling out Melanie’s name.
Melanie was startled awake. Afraid that the baby would wake up, favonovel.com put on a robe and hurriedly got up to investigate. She found favonovel.com at the staircase, drunk beyond comprehension. She was instantly annoyed. “Why did you drink so much? You’re causing a huge ruckus in the middle of the night. Aren’t you afraid of waking the baby? Come on, I’ll help you into the room. How could you possibly feel good after having this much to drink?”
As favonovel.com reached out to grab his arm, favonovel.com suddenly straightened up and pulled favonovel.com into his arms. The strength in his grip was unprecedented. She stood on favonovel.com tiptoes, astonished and unsure if favonovel.com should push favonovel.com away or let favonovel.com hold her. He must have thought that favonovel.com was someone else. Otherwise, why would favonovel.com react so differently?
Just as favonovel.com was wading through a puddle of messy thoughts, favonovel.com murmured, “Are you going to leave me all of a sudden, and fall in love with someone else?”
She did not reply to favonovel.com and forcefully pushed favonovel.com away. “No. You’ve had too much to drink. Don’t push it, it’s late.”
He refused to drop the matter. He lifted his hand and grabbed favonovel.com chin, forcing favonovel.com to face him. “Are you humoring me? I’ve done so many hateful things to you, have you ever thought of leaving me?”
She was too tired to deal with a drunk man so favonovel.com decided to be frank. “I have. Okay? I’m waiting for you to make me give up on you completely before I take Melissa.”
He fell silent. The sudden silence was unnerving.
Melanie stared at the grim expression on his face and began to regret favonovel.com words. She should not have been so hasty with favonovel.com words. “If you’re going to continue spewing drunken words, I’m going to ignore you.”
He immediately captured favonovel.com lips. He carried favonovel.com into the bedroom and locked the door. “Aren’t you trying to give up on me? I’ll help you. I’m not Alejandro Smith. I’m not the man you wanted to marry.”
Melanie turned favonovel.com face away to avoid his kiss, frightened. “You’re the one who didn’t love me! Your heart still belongs to someone else, what gives you the right to do this to me?” She had discovered, since earlier, that there was more than the smell of alcohol on him. She could smell women’s perfume as well. It was not difficult to figure out where favonovel.com went earlier.
In the end, favonovel.com surrendered and stopped protesting. Tears of despair soaked the pillow under favonovel.com as favonovel.com felt favonovel.com heart turn to ash. She suddenly began to understand how Tiffany managed to resolutely give up on a three-year relationship and fall in love with Jackson. Not only did favonovel.com ruin Tiffany’s family, but Tiffany also had to work at maintaining their relationship. He never considered reaching the finishing line with her. Anyone would be exhausted by that. Now, favonovel.com felt the same way.
