His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 137

Just as things were about to get into a heated mess, Lily's phone rang. She fumbled for it and answered the call, "Hello?"

"Lily, I'm almost back. I'm getting something to eat. Do you want anything?" Jenny's voice rang from the other end.

In a flash, Lily was awake. She pushed against Alexander and jolted up, "N-No, thank you. I'm not hungry."

"Okay, were you already asleep? I'll be back soon," Jenny promised.

"Right, yeah!" Lily hung up and dragged Alexander.

"Hurry, Jenny is about to come back! You must leave now, and don't let her see you!" Lily warned as she struggled to tidy her clothes and handed Alexander his coat. This was when she noticed he was just sitting on the sofa with a dark expression on his face.

Oops.

"Okay, I know it's my fault, and I'm sorry, but it can't be helped. You know we can't expose our relationship for now, and Jenny knows you!" She continued to coax him into giving in.

Alexander huffed in annoyance, "You're making it sound like I'm a nobody."

He was even throwing tantrums at that point.

"Right, everyone knows you because you're the famous Mr. Russell. However, could you please leave for now?" While she would love to hurry him along, she needed to ensure he was not upset about it.

Jenny was probably in the lobby by now. Why did she have to say that she was not hungry? Jenny might be there any minute. If only Lily had told Jenny that she wanted something to eat, that might have bought her a few more minutes.

Lily wanted to urge Alexander to leave quickly, but she did not want to make him angry.
