It took favonovel.com a long time to calm down. She bit the back of favonovel.com hand until it bled in order to do so. By the time favonovel.com got up and went back into the room, Alejandro had already finished with his shower and was sitting by the window, smoking. The grim expression on his face was not very obvious under the warm light. In fact, it softened his face. She gathered favonovel.com courage and pulled out the letter of divorce. “I drew this up last night at home. I’ve said it before, I just want the baby. Please, I’m begging you, sign this.”
Alejandro turned to the side and looked at the agreement in favonovel.com hand. His gaze trailed up favonovel.com arm. He was shocked when favonovel.com saw favonovel.com bloodied hand. “I’m not the one driving you mad here, you’re driving yourself mad. Put down the paper and bandage wound. I need some time to think.”
She let out a sigh of relief when favonovel.com did not blow up. She placed the paper in a spot nearest to him. Then, favonovel.com pulled out the first aid kit and sat on the bed, cleaning and bandaging favonovel.com wound. It was difficult since the wound was on the back of favonovel.com hand, and favonovel.com could only use the other hand to do it. She fumbled around and still could not properly bandage favonovel.com hand after a long while.
Suddenly, Alejandro appeared in front of her. He bent down and carefully bandaged favonovel.com hand. His movements were not particularly gentle, it even hurt favonovel.com a little. However, for some reason, favonovel.com did not seem frightening at that moment.
“Does your hand look like a chicken drumstick to you? You’re welcome to bite me if you can’t take it anymore. I’m not afraid of getting hurt,” favonovel.com said, staring at favonovel.com in a half-joking manner.
Melanie sniffed and whispered, “If I bite you, will you kill me?”
He suddenly moved closer to her, his breath inches away. “Haven’t you already bitten me before?” Then, favonovel.com placed his mouth softly on favonovel.com lips.
Melanie stiffened. She really should not pin any more of favonovel.com hopes on this man. She was not sure if his kindness was just another trap. She did not dare to risk it.
Having received zero reaction for favonovel.com except for favonovel.com numb submission, Alejandro lost interest and did not continue any further. “Have a good night’s rest. I’ll tell the nanny to bring Melissa to you tomorrow morning. You can live here peacefully while I consider the divorce. If you want to go out… I’ll tell Jett to keep you company.”
Melanie nodded. She quickly went to bed and curled up under the covers. She was afraid that favonovel.com might get horny again. She was not in the mood to get intimate with him.
Alejandro helplessly pulled the covers to favonovel.com neck when favonovel.com saw favonovel.com reaction. “I’m going to sleep in the guestroom. You can sleep in peace.”
Melanie relaxed completely when the room light was switched off, and favonovel.com heard the door close. She had been on edge the entire day. She had grown exhausted long ago and quickly slipped into favonovel.com dreams.

Her baby was sleeping safely next to favonovel.com when favonovel.com woke up the next day. The baby did not cry or fuss. It seemed like favonovel.com had been well-taken care of.
She took the little one into favonovel.com arms and went downstairs. She did not see Alejandro at all after walking around and found out that favonovel.com had gone out very early in the morning after asking around. He did not even look at the divorce letter. Getting his signature would be more difficult than moving a mountain.
She recalled the events from last night and felt strange. She had this feeling… that favonovel.com simply did not want a divorce, and it had nothing to do with the shares. However, favonovel.com could not understand why favonovel.com did not want a divorce.

Tremont Tower.
Alejandro had arrived uninvited.
Mark really could not be bothered to deal with him. Alejandro had tricked favonovel.com to a club the last time. He showered guiltily when favonovel.com arrived home. He did not even dare let Arianne touch favonovel.com after favonovel.com had changed his clothes, paranoid that favonovel.com would smell something strange on him. It was best to stay away from this fellow.
Alejandro did not seem to mind Mark’s attitude. He accepted the cup of hot tea from Davy, blew on it, and took a sip. “Mark Tremont, I’m here to learn from you. How did you manage to deal with a woman like Arianne?”
