Chapter 4 Audrey's Confusion

• “Xander, is Uncle Marco home yet?” Audrey stepped out of the walk-in closet, looking at Xander who had just entered the room. Audrey wore a pink dress with small leaves pattern that made her look so beautiful.
• Audrey's blonde hair fell in a dazzling way. Her gray eyes are bright and charming. Her pink lips have been polished by a lip gloss. Even though she didn't wear heavy makeup, she was still very beautiful. About a few hours before she woke up, Xander had already asked his people to buy clothes for her
• “Yes,” Xander answered briefly with a cold expression on his face.
• Audrey sighed softly. The look on her face showed her disappointment to hear that Marco had come home. “Though I wanted to see Uncle Marco, Xander. You should have told Uncle Marco to wait for me for a while. I want to say hello to him.”
• “You can call him if you want to talk to him. Now get ready! I'll take you home. If you want to take care of our marriage, just take care of it. Don't ask me to take part in the wedding preparations,” Xander said coldly.
• “M-marriage?” Audrey approached Xander, looking at him with happy twinkling eyes. “We're getting married, Xander?” she asked, unable to contain her joy any longer.
• “Why are you still asking? Didn't you know that in two weeks we're getting married?” Xander replied annoyed.
• “You didn't cancel our wedding plans, Xander?” Audrey stared into Xander's brown eyes—a look that was clearly filled with boundless joy.
• “Can our marriage be annulled? Wouldn't that be impossible?” Xander reversed Audrey's words.
• A smile appeared on Audrey's face when she heard Xander's words. Audrey didn't care about Xander's coldness. The most important thing is that Xander wants to marry her. The next second, Audrey jumped into Xander's neck. Reflexively, Xander wrapped his arms around Audrey's waist as their bodies were unbalanced and nearly fell.
• “Audrey! What the hell! Why jump like that!” Xander exclaimed angrily.
• “I love you, Xander. Love you so much. I'm so happy we will getting married.” Audrey paid no heed to Xander's words. The woman kissed Xander's lips gently. While Xander was silent when Audrey kissed his lips. There was no return from Xander, but also no rejection either.
• “Get ready right away. I'll take you home.” Xander ignored Audrey's expression of love.
• Audrey clung to Xander's arms. “I don't want to go straight home. I want us to eat out first.”
• “I'm busy, Audrey!” Xander retorted.
• Audrey pursed her lips. “Just a moment, Xander. Not for long. I want to eat out. I'm tired of eating at home. Please.”
• Xander let out a rough breath. “Fine, but we won't be long. If you take long, I'll leave you at the restaurant. You go home by taxi.”
• Audrey smiled as she gave Xander a kiss on the jaw. “I promise I won't be long, Honey.”
• ***
• A famous French restaurant in Rome became the place where Xander took Audrey for lunch together. The two men sat at the dining table chair by the window as Audrey wanted to see the beautiful scenery in Rome.
• “Xander, I want our wedding concept to be as luxurious as the king's daughter's wedding. I also want my wedding dress to be ordered from the best designer. I want our marriage to be absolutely perfect, Xander!” Audrey exclaimed with a smile on her face. The tone of her voice sounds so happy.
• “Whatever, you can arrange it,” Xander replied nonchalantly and indifferently.
• “Okay, Honey. Anyway, where will we live when we get married, Xander? Shall we live in your apartment?” Audrey asked excitedly.
• “No. I will ask my people to arrange a new house after we get married,” Xander replied coldly and his face was expressionless.
• Audrey nodded her head. “One more. Where are we going on our honeymoon, Xander? You will choose a beautiful place, right?”
• “No honeymoon. I am busy. I'm working on a lot of projects,” Xander replied coldly.
• “Xander but I want to honeymoon in a beautiful and romantic place,” Audrey said whining spoiled.
• “I can’t. I’m busy.”
• “Our romantic honeymoon is always in my dreams, Xander.”
• “Audrey, don't be childish. You know I'm busy. Don't demand a lot of things you clearly know you can't!” Xander answered firmly, and coldly
• Audrey's lips curled downwards. The look on her face showed clear disappointment. Audrey's dream of a beautiful honeymoon with Xander doesn't come true. Whereas since long ago, a romantic honeymoon has always been Audrey's dream.
• Audrey took a deep breath. She tries to understand and think positively. Maybe later she and Xander will go on their honeymoon after he isn't too busy. After all, the most important thing for Audrey was that Xander would soon marry her.
• “Okay. But when you're not too busy anymore, we should go on our honeymoon.” Audrey rested her head on her fiancé's strong arm.
• Xander did not heed Audrey's request. The man chose to take a sip of the whiskey in his glass as he looked into the window, seeing people passing by walking on the sidewalk. And suddenly Xander's gaze accidentally looked at the figure of a woman with thick brown hair wearing a red dress.
• Xander put the whiskey in his hand on the table, staring intently at the woman in the red dress. Instantly Xander's eyes sharpened when he was sure who the woman across the street was. The next second, Xander pushed away Audrey's body who was hugging him. The man immediately ran away from Audrey just like that.
• “Xander! Wait where are you going!” cried Audrey loudly. Unfortunately Xander doesn't care about Audrey calling him. Xander continued to run leaving Audrey in the restaurant alone.
• “Where did Xander go? Why was he in such a hurry?” murmured Audrey with a sad expression on her face. Audrey desperately wanted to catch up, but she couldn't. Because Xander's steps are so fast, Audrey won't be able to match it.
