My Powerful CEO Husband

Chapter 132

Ch. 132 / 753 Jan 28, 2026

It was almost eight o'clock in the evening, Lita glanced at her mobile phone from time to time. Did that man forget? He clearly promised her that he would come.

Lita picked up her phone and was about to call Alex to ask for an answer when Bella pressed down on Lita's phone call.

"Lita, don't rush me. Men hate to be urged over and over again by women! If he has such a heart, he will come." The smile on Bella's face was still as gentle as spring.

The most important thing was that Lita was worried that the man didn't have time to worry! If he really didn't come, how awkward it would be for her and Bella in front of so many people!

She was so embarrassed that it didn't matter. Anyway, she had learned to be old-fashioned and thick-skinned. But Snow made it real because she didn't want Charlotte to lose face with her. She also wanted to persuade the man to come over.

One wanted to call, and the other didn't allow.

Just as the two were in a deadlock, Lita's cell phone rang.

It was Alex.

Lita immediately picked up the phone and asked in a hurry, "Alex, where are you?"

"Where am I? Where are you? Where did you go?" Alex didn't answer the question, and his words were full of anger.

"I'm in The Paradise Bites! Have you forgotten that we're going to have a blind date today?" Lita lowered her voice and asked, "Come here quickly. Both I and Bella are waiting for you."

Alex didn't know whether he should cry or laugh. His wife kept urging him to go on a blind date with another woman. Time, place, character, three critical factors, the woman had arranged everything for him!

"What a 'virtuous' she is!"

Lita didn't want Bella to be embarrassed, so she quickly stood up and walked towards the corner of the corridor while speaking.

"Alex, please let me ask you. My aunt and the others have all come. If you don't come, it will be very embarrassing for me to call you Bella. I beg you, can you do it?" Lita almost pleaded.

One had to know that it wasn't easy to intimidate this man! He was born to be a stubborn guy. Hence, Lita could only change her way of doing things and hope that Alex would admit defeat!

"What's the benefit if I go?" Alex asked in a melodious voice.

He could tell that the woman's request was sincere. But the more sincere it was, the colder Alex's heart became. He really wanted to use the marriage certificate to smash the woman's head so that she could sober up.

Although this game was a little sad, it was still quite interesting. Because Alex had already planned out how to create a comedy between bitterness and opposite director!

"As long as you can come, I will give you whatever benefits you want!" At that time, Lita did not think about it and agreed to the man's conditions directly.

The only thing she was worried about was that if the man refused to come, she would lie to him first. As for the rest of the matter, it could be discussed Besides, she, Lita, didn't have any money. Her life was as small as hers! If he, Alex, wanted money, he could take it. The key point was that he took it, and it was useless.

"You're the one who promised me to do this," Alex said in a deep voice. Instantly, a chill came over him. Then he responded, "I'll be there in half an hour! Lita, wait for me!"

The man had agreed to come, so Lita should have jumped for joy. But she felt a deep chill. The man's words sounded horrifying.

Lita couldn't help but shudder. However, the feeling of horror was immediately replaced by the good news that "I'll be there in half an hour."

Lita returned to the dining table.

Bella maintained her elegance. "Lita, since Mr. Selmy is busy, let's order a meal. I'll take you back to your house later."

A scheming woman would sound out her intentions when she spoke. There was no doubt that Bella was a shrewd woman.

"Alex will be here in half an hour! Bella, if you're hungry, I'll give you some snacks to cushion your hunger," Lita said with a smile.

She finally brought the man over. Thinking about it, she still had a sense of accomplishment. At least she could give Bella and her aunt, who was not far away, an explanation.

"Well, let's have some snacks first." Bella said softly.

Bella pretended to be calm and collected on the surface, but her heart was as beautiful as a flower. As long as Alex could come to the party, no matter whether he was really going on a blind date, it was enough to support Bella's face.

About ten minutes later, the waiter brought in two kinds of delicious cakes. Lita and Bella ate happily with the piano.

As the daughter of a notable young lady in Xavier Dynasty, how could she not know that she would be impolite if she ordered a meal first. However, she did it deliberately.

Firstly, she was acting as a show to those rich wives and young ladies. Secondly, she was also trying to sound out the status of lita in Alex's heart.

The thought of Lita kissing and boasting in the Selmy Family kitchen made Bella very angry. However, there was no other way. After all, Lita, who looked like a little girl but was quite scheming, was the first to get the moon before the water!

Therefore, if Alex was willing to marry her, she would be willing to marry him. After she married into the Selmy Family, she would punish the Selmy Family well! She would not allow Lita to seduce Alex so shamelessly!

Lita was really hungry. She ate up a piece of mousse cake in two or three bites. When she looked up, she suddenly saw Bella staring at her with a look of resentment.

"Bella, why aren't you eating? Aren't you hungry?" Lita looked at the untouched strawberry mousse on Bella's plate.

"I'm not hungry, I'll give it to you. Look at you, gluttonous cat." Bella pushed strawberry mousse in front of Lita and carefully used a tissue to wipe off the crumbs on Lita's lips.

"Hehehehe, why don't you play the zither in summer? Alex hasn't come yet? You're asking for humiliation!"

Seeing that Bella and Lita had already ordered and eaten, Charlotte hought Alex would definitely not come to the banquet, so she couldn't help teasing Bella and Charlotte. It was also a good chance for her to send mango cakes to Alex and humiliate him.

After thinking about it, Charlotte felt that the box of mango cakes was deliberately used by Bella to let her send to Selmy Family, which made her greatly humiliated. Charlotte had been looking for a chance to retaliate against her sister Bella.

Zither, chess, book, (painting), the Bishop family had three daughters. They always had a discordant look and a bad heart, especially Charlotte.

Lita wanted to explain, but Bella motioned for her to stop.

"I've come to accompany Lita for dinner. Why is it a self-humiliation? It's fine if you don't want Lita to be my sister, but I'll regard her as my own younger sister," Bella said in an elegant and calm manner.

Every word she said showed her good qualities, showing her fair-skinned, wealthy, and beautiful, well-off.

"Hehe! Bella, stop deceiving yourself! Now I am afraid that the whole Lisbon knows that you are going to have blind dates with Alex tonight, right? Unfortunately, the second Young Master Selmy doesn't care about you at all! He really takes himself seriously!"
