Unclear reason

When it's seven o'clock, Melvin drives his car to the office where Alexa works. He insisted on accompanying his wife even though the one who was escorted refused to even glance at him now.

"Later, we'll have lunch together," said Melvin breaking the silence. He glanced at Alexa who looked beautiful in a knee-length silver dress combined with a cream-colored top with a black ribbon on her neck and pinned some of her hair behind her back.

"I don't want to," said Alexa.

Melvin frowned and asked, "why?"

"I'll just eat in the office cafeteria," Alexa answered still without turning her head.

Melvin glanced at Alexa in surprise then pulled the car over. He was silent with such a cold gaze towards the front while Alexa stared at him in surprise.

"Why stop? You know I have to get to the office soon!" Alexa protested.
