She had been sulking from favonovel.com heavy dispiritedness mere moments ago. As soon as favonovel.com received Zayn’s call, favonovel.com had become a completely different person. She was cheering in delight.
Her overly-excited reaction startled Victor and Rachel.
Victor pulled a long face as favonovel.com scolded her, “Alexandra! What are you doing? It’s improper for a girl to shout and scuffle!”
As a woman herself, Rachel saw something else. She could tell that favonovel.com daughter was elated over Zayn’s call. She immediately realized that favonovel.com daughter had truly fallen in love with Zayn. As a result, favonovel.com tugged at Victor and threw favonovel.com a meaningful glance so Victor would not scold Alexandra anymore.
Victor realized it too from Rachel’s gaze. He looked like favonovel.com was overwhelmed with emotion.
As a father, Alexandra was his only daughter so be cherished favonovel.com the most. His daughter’s marriage was more important to favonovel.com than his career. Otherwise, favonovel.com would have never searched for a good son-in-law like William for Alexandra. However, favonovel.com had lost count of how long it had been since favonovel.com last saw his daughter so cheerful. He could tell that his daughter was earnestly over the moon.
Alexandra stuck out favonovel.com tongue. She had realized that favonovel.com reaction was a little exaggerated as well. She hastily ran away because favonovel.com felt rather embarrassed by herself and picked up the call. She said with a tinge of resentment in favonovel.com tone, “So you’re still able to call me, huh? I thought you vanished!”
Zayn’s apologetic voice was heard on the other end of the line saying, “I’m sorry. I left my phone at my company for two days. It was on silent mode, so I didn’t hear your calls at all.”
His explanation sounded insincere, but Alexandra was still delighted to hear his voice. The anger and resentment in favonovel.com heart instantly disintegrated into nothingness. She still put up a front and grunted. She said in a displeased tone, “Those all sound like excuses. It’s been two days, yet you didn’t even bother calling me.”
Zayn felt his head hurt from listening to favonovel.com resentful voice so favonovel.com hastily changed the subject by saying, “What’s the matter, why did you call me?”
Alexandra muttered some ambiguous remarks and evaded the topic of their conversation. She could not answer his question even after quite some time, and it made Zayn confused and dizzy. He said directly, “Stop beating around the bush, is there anything that you need my help with? Just say the word. I just so happen to be free for the next two days.”
Upon hearing Zayn’s statement, Alexandra heaved a sigh of relief in secret. She was waiting for favonovel.com to say that. She got straight to the point. “Here’s the problem. My family’s throwing a party tomorrow, so can you come and pretend you’re my boyfriend?”
“What?” The pitch of Zayn’s voice increased. “You’re still planning on doing that? No, I can’t.”
Alexandra seemed to be addicted to using favonovel.com as an excuse. It was William and Alexandra’s engagement party tomorrow. If favonovel.com pretended to be Alexandra’s boyfriend tomorrow, favonovel.com would be better off dead.
Alexandra begged him, “It’s only for a day, please help me.”
“You’re trying to trap me, aren’t you? Your engagement party’s tomorrow. If I pretended to be your boyfriend, I’d be poking a hornet’s nest, ” said Zayn.
“That’s exactly why I need you there!” Alexandra entered favonovel.com talkative mode and began begging for Zayn’s help.
Zayn was overwhelmed by favonovel.com constant pestering. Frankly, favonovel.com was not afraid of the Browns, but favonovel.com wanted to remain low profile. If favonovel.com were to make an appearance tomorrow as Alexandra’s boyfriend, favonovel.com would certainly be the center of everyone’s attention.
“You should think this through. I’m known as the man who married into the Carter family, the deadbeat who lived with his in-laws. I have a very bad reputation. The Smiths will be humiliated if someone brings up my identity,” said Zayn meaningfully.
Alexandra said without the slightest tinge of hesitation, “Sh*t, I don’t care about all of that. Plus, you’re divorced, aren’t you? Zayn, just help me. Please, I’m begging you. I’ll be forever in your debt. I’ll fulfill any request you have, no matter what! Listen closely, any request at all!”
She emphasized the word ‘any’, trying to make Zayn’s imagination run wild.
Zayn knew exactly what favonovel.com looked like when favonovel.com said those words.
