His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 451

They had a good night’s sleep at the Lodge family’s manor. However, Alexander stirred awake from the commotion downstairs at the break of dawn. Although he was not a morning person, he was a light sleeper, especially in an unfamiliar environment.

Any noise would wake him, so he got up from the bed and walked toward the window to look outside. It had finally stopped raining, and the front yard was clear of snow. The Lodge family members were already awake and had started their morning training routine.

They were having their morning jog in such cold weather. It was strange because Alexander could feel the heat just from seeing them run. It was as if the cold never bothered them.

There was a knock on the door, and Alexander went to open it. He saw his wife standing outside, yawning, “You’re awake?”

“I just got up. Let me wash up, and then we’ll go down,” Alexander said.

“Okay,” Lily agreed while rubbing her sleepy eyes. She wanted to go back to bed but could not, as this place was not her usual home, and she would not be able to sleep well anyway.

After the couple had washed and dressed up, they went downstairs and noticed the busy housekeepers preparing breakfast. The Lodge family’s morning routine was vigorous, so it was typical for everyone to have a big breakfast. That was why the housekeepers scurried around to get things done as soon as the family returned.

“You’re up early,” Justin commented as he entered the room. He had finished his training and was now wearing a thin wool sweater.

“I always woke up early in the past,” Lily replied, “Where’s grandpa?”

She remembered that her grandfather was always the first to wake up. That was also why no one could complain since Wilfred was the oldest and most disciplined.

Lily asked for his whereabouts because she wanted to say goodbye as they were planning to leave today. Was it because she had left for too long? It felt bizarre and slightly uncomfortable being back. Since the snow had stopped, it would be best if they could leave sooner.
