CH 123 ~ Babysitting

Alex's Pov~

Just like I had thought, the entire journey back home turned noisy as my stupid brother kept on chattering with Ren. 

But at least she is smiling and feeling happy. 

They made me sit on the front so that both of them can chatter happily and I helplessly sigh, remembering the time when she used to chatter like this with me at the beginning of our marriage. 

But I just used to sit like a stone, pretending not to pay any attention to her words because of my damn ego. 

I would watch her to get awkward as she was always the one who tried to make things work between us and I took them for granted. 

My heart was with her but my brain reminded me of the contract between us, thinking of her as a rich spoiled brat who made her father to force me into this marriage. 

All my feelings got buried under it and when I realized that she didn't even knew about it, everything started to get messy.
