StarNovelChapter 184 Alexander had rushed hin the middle of the night because of Lily's text. However, his wife did not look at him and simply snuggled into his embrace. He did not know whether he should be glad or mad at her.
Glad because she was willing to get closer to himn. Mad because she did that so easily. What if the person on the bed was not Alexander but someone else? “Lily. Lily...” he called her nsoftly in her ear.

Alexander was speechless. ‘She said | was noisy, but she huggedtighter and snuggled deeper into my arms. Did she think she would not hear anything by doing so?” Alexander wanted to say something at first but just sighed in the end. ‘Forget it. I'll just say it tomorrow! She’s my princess, after all.
He soon relaxed in the bed and fell asleep with Lily using him as a human pillow.
Lily had a great sleep. When she woke up, she felt fresh and wanted to stretch her arms, but she could not move them. Opening her eyes, she saw the handsface belonging to her lover.
“Alex?” she called out in surprise. “When did you chome?” Alexander opened his eyes, his dark orbs staring back at her. Finally, he could let out his words from last night. “Hmph! You snuggled into my arms without knowing who | was. Do you even know how to keep yourself safe?” He used his hand to knock her forehead lightly because he did not want to hurt her.
Lily put her hand to her forehead and asked, “Is there another man in this house except for you?” “What if it was a robber?” “Oh, please! Do you think that the security guards of Imperial Hills are just decorations? How could a robber get in here so easily? Even if someone were to barge into the neighborhood, you have a burglar alarm system installed in this house, don't you?” she said casually, thinking he had just asked a terrible question.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer words surprised him. “How'd you know | have a system in this house?” Lily was speechless. After all, she had been staying there for quite stime. She could tell a burglar alarm system was installed after a few looks around. While this system may not be as practical as the one used at the Lodge family’s residence, it was substantial enough for the average person.
“1... guessed it!” She thought of a cover and continued, “Don’t you watch TV? People with your level of wealth and status would always set up sprotection barriers around their houses to prevent burglaries.” Lily raised her brow after saying that, satisfied with herself for coming up with such a reasonable excuse.
“Can | think of it as you feeling safe around me?” Sensing that she wanted to get up, Alexander reached for her wrist and pulled her back into his embrace.
“Alex quit messing with me. | need to head to the lab now.” Lily struggled to get away from him. She would not feel at ease before completing her research. “You spent more tin the lab than withrecently. | should consider taking the personal lab back from you,” Alexander muttered as he snuggled into her neck. ‘Boss! You can’t use work to get back atfor our private matters!” Lily thought.
