The president's seventh bride novel Chapter 37

It was late at night, and the gentle wind was gradually getting cold. Carlos looked at the woman in front of him at a certain distance. He just left a few minutes, and she actually fell asleep at the table.

Slowly forward, Carlos took off his suit jacket and put it on Alicia, then set up one of her arms and left the night stall.

When they got to the car, Carlos opened the door and stuffed Alicia in. After a few breaths, he rubbed his hair decadent and thought, "I must be crazy to care about this woman."

He sat in from the other side and stretched out his hand to tie Alicia's seat belt. At this time, Alicia had opened her blurred eyes and asked vaguely, "Why are you so close to me?"

"Don't move."

Carlos impatiently stare at her, continue to fasten the safety belt.

Just as Carlos tie up for Alicia and was about to move back, two soft arms suddenly surrounded his neck, causing his body frozen. Looking at the woman in front of him, whose clear eyes were as pure as sea water, Carlos could even feel her breathing because of the close distance.

Alicia grinned and nodded, "Although your temper is not good, you are still good-looking."

Alicia moved her hand to his angular face, stroking his facial features unscrupulously, and at that time Carlos was shocked, forgetting to get rid of her hand and just letting her touch him like a pet.

Carlos waited for Alicia to touch every inch of his face and thought that she had finally settled down. However, Alicia tilted her body and leaned on his shoulder. Carlos was like electrified and rudely pushed Alicia away. He rolled down one side of the window, and put his head out of the window. When the wind blew onto him, Carlos suddenly woke up a lot.

Then the engine was started, and the car slammed off the ground. When they were about to arrive at home, Carlos heard a voice as thin as mosquitoes, saying, "Don't fall in love with me. Never. I won't fall in love with you either..."

Carlos stopped the car and helped Alicia to walk into the living room. The living room was brightly lit, everyone was there, except for his father.

"Gosh, what's going on?"

Sara came forward in surprise and smelled a strong smell of alcohol, "Has your wife drunken?"

"Yeah."

Carlos responded calmly and went straight to the direction of the stairs.

"Are you two drinking together? How come you don't answer any of my calls?"

Sara asked as watching the back of her son and Alicia, but they ignored her. Aurora came up to her and said, "Mom, there must be something going on between them."

"What are you talking about?"

"Didn't you see Carlos's clothes was on Alicia? She is so drunk that it is impossible for her to rob Carlos's clothes. So the only possibility is that Carlos took the initiative to take off the clothes for her to wear!"

"You mean, Carlos cares about Alicia?"

"Correct!"

"That's good then." Sara was too happy to keep her mouth shut. "It seems that my little grandson is coming soon."

Aurora thought for a whole and came up with an idea, "Mom, since you want to have grandchildren so much, why don't you..."

"How about it?"

"We meddle him with aphrodisiac drugs. Maybe you will have your little grandson and I will have my little nephew tonight."

"That's a good idea."

When Sara was excited, she didn't quite care about her daughter's rude language.

"But will your brother be furious afterwards?"

"Oh, it's okay. As long as it happened, It doesn't matter whether he is angry or not. Why are you afraid of your son? How can a mother be afraid of her son?"

When Sara heard what her daughter said, she was daring. Last week, she had ordered someone to buy imported aphrodisiac from abroad, but she always worried about Carlos's temper and didn't dare to use it. Now it seemed that Carlos seemed to have a much better attitude towards Alicia. It's better not to waste today's opportunity.

Carlos just threw Alicia into her bed, and Aurora entered the room with a glass of boiled water.

"Brother, you must be tired. Have a drink."

"Thank you." Carlos took it as he was really tired.

Seeing that the water is about to enter the belly, Aurora secretly rejoiced. Unexpectedly, Alicia lying in bed suddenly got up and rushed over. She grabbed the cup in Carlos' hand, and said, "Give me a drink, I am thirsty."

"No."

Aurora stretched out a hand to stop her in panic. Accidentally, she snapped the cup on the ground, and it fell apart.

The three looked at each other. Then Carlos asked his sister in surprise, "Did you put poison in it?"

"Nonsense."

"Then why can't she drink it?"

"I prepared this for you. How can she drink it?"

"Are you on the same side as this woman? Why did you suddenly change?"

Aurora swallowed her saliva, and she smiled in embarrassment and said, "What are you talking about? I am in the same team as my brother. Now I am going to sleep. Good night, Carlos."

Before Carlos responded, Aurora ran away and disappeared.

Early the next morning, Alicia went downstairs and felt Sara and Aurora were avoiding her, as if they had done something guilty.

"Alicia, I asked the kitchen to give you a bowl of hangover soup. Enjoy it by yourself."

"Okay."

Alicia took the bowl and sent it to her mouth. Out of the corner of her eye, she inclined to the man around her. When she saw that his usual expression, Alicia was assured. She worried that she was drunk last night and would have any made rude behavior. But now it seemed that she didn't.

The mobile phone in her pocket shook a few times. Alicia put down the bowl and looked at the caller ID. She hesitated a little, and got up and said, "Mom, Dad, I'll take a call."

A moment later, when she came back from the phone, Sara asked, "Who is it?"

"My sister Mia."

"Oh, what is it?"

"Nothing big. It's just that my parents are missing me and want me to go back to have a meal."

Edward cut in, "Carlos can go with you. Right, you haven't visited your parents for a long time."

"I need to have dinner with my clients tonight." Carlos refused instantly.

"No, I can go back myself, and I may stay there for one night."

Sara nodded, "Okay. You must miss your mother."

Carlos snort mockingly. Although the voice was low, Alicia still heard it. Her look became embarrassing. She said nothing but just had breakfast and went to work.

When Alicia was walking towards the bus stop casually, a car stopped beside her. Carlos's permanent mocking look appeared after the car window went down. He teased her on purpose, "Your parents miss you? I don't think so. I bet it's only your own wishful thinking."

Carlos's hurtful words were coming incessantly. The he drove away with a sarcastic smile before she responded.

This let Alicia dumbfounding. They just had drinks together last night. Today, he became so mean to her. How could one person change so fast? Lunatic!

This was the second time that Alicia visited her parents since she got married. The first time was the due meeting with bride's parents after the wedding ceremony.

Alicia arrived at home and saw her stepmother Holly playing the white Persian cat in her arms at the living room. When Holly saw Alicia, she was stunned at first and then said with sarcasm, "Wow, how honored I am to see you here! Mrs. Alicia, the wife of the heir of a noble family, why do you come home without informing us?"

"Mia says that you want to see me."

Alicia answered indifferently. She had been used to Holly's sarcasm.

"Oh, no, we didn't ask you to come back. Even if we want to invite you, we are afraid that you may not give us this chance. After all, you have married into a rich and powerful family."

This was only to be expected. She always knew that Mia was a liar. Her biological father or this stepmother, no one in this family sincerely wanted her to come back.

"Where is Mia?"

Alicia was curious to know why Miss Mia lied to her and what she wanted from her. This so-called sister had always taken delight in torturing her.

"She is upstairs."

Holly told her unhappily. Alicia directly went upstairs.

Alicia knocked at the door of Mia's room, and the same arrogant voice as Holly came, "Come in."

Alicia went in. "Let me be straight, why do you call me back?"

"Sis, I miss you so much."

"Stop it. There is no one here so you don't need to pretend. Try to be less disgusting."

"You..."

Mia was so angry that her look went terrible for a while. But she held back her anger, as she wanted something from Alicia. "My dear sister, don't be so cold to me. Though I'm your half-sister with respective mother, we share one blood father. How can we be so alienated?"

Honestly, it was kind of weird and gross. "What do you want? If you don't say it, I am leaving."

"Hey. Don't go. I will tell you."

Mia quickly stopped Alicia and begged, "I've been very bored at home recently. May I drop by your house for a few days?"

Alicia amazed with the eyes wide open, "Are you kidding me? My home is more interesting?"

"Right, it would be fun if I changed a different place to live. I hear that the Cloud Mansion is the top residence in B City. I really want to see it with my own eyes."

Mia was really the blood daughter of Holly. When they wanted to get something from others, they could try their best to please them. When they didn't need them anymore, they would kick those people away to a far distance, not meeting those poor guys for a lifetime.

"May I? If you don't say anything, I will take it as a yes."

"No, I don't agree."

Alicia flatly refused her request and went out.

"Don't blame me later for playing some tricks if you don't agree."

Mia chased out and took out her last card.

"What do you really want?"

"Nothing. Anyway, I'm definitely going to the Cloud Mansion. If you don't take me, I'll go there by myself. By that time, it's up to me to say what I want to say."

Alicia's fingers trembled. She knew that Mia really meant it. "Well, since you really wanted to go, come then."

"That's right. Men should be flexible. As an old saying goes that a wise man submits to circumstances... Hey, wait for me..."
