My Powerful CEO Husband

Chapter 67

Ch. 67 / 753 Jan 28, 2026

Being shocked by Alex, Eva really shut up and sat in the passenger seat with Lita obediently.

Although there were only two seats in this sports car, the space of passenger seat was quite large. Besides, Lita and Eva were petite, so they didn't feel too crowded sharing one seat.

Eva wanted to say something, but Lita made a hush gesture, signaled her not to provoke Alex.

To her surprise, Alex's cold face had a great effect on Eva. Though she used to be tough, she was more obedient than a domestic cat now. It proved Alex's words just now: She couldn't be more stubborn than he was.

It seemed that she was worried that the blood on her legs would stain the car, so Eva had been pressing the wound tightly.

"It's just a car. It's nothing compared to the life!" Alex said in a low voice, not bothering to turn around.

But Eva's heart was warmed up by his words. Perhaps this was the first time that a man cared about her so much. Although she was touched, she knew that Alex was Lita's boyfriend, and she would not have any improper thoughts about him.

In any case, Lita could almost be counted as a girl from a rich family. As for Eva, she could only be considered a homeless vagrant.

"Mr. Selmy, thank you for giving me a ride. Please stop at the bus station over there," Eva said in a low voice. For some reason, she couldn't raise her voice in front of Alex.

"Eva, come with me to the Selmy family. You're hurt so bad, Dean Oliver will definitely feel worried. Go home with me. Later, I'll tell Dean Oliver that you're staying with me, and she will not be worried." Lita held Eva's waist and refused to let her get out of the car

Alex remained silent. He was always a taciturn man. Only when Lita did some stupid things did he become talkative, as if he was bewitched. It was unbelievable.

Alex's mobile phone suddenly rang. Lita quickly picked it up and passed it to him.

"Put the Bluetooth back in place," Alwx said flatly.

Lita helped him put the Bluetooth headset on his right ear and connected it.

Alex was talking in Spanish to the phone, so Lita couldn't understand a word at all. She could only see Alex's face turn stiff for a while, and then become scornful. Then he snapped, and finally threw the Bluetooth headset on the dashboard.

What a violent man!

For an instant, the three of them were silent. The air in the confined space of the car became oppressive.

"Do you know Spanish?" Alex suddenly asked.

Lita thought that Alex was asking her, so she quickly shook her head.

"...Yeah," answered Eva, after a short pause..

Eva admired him. 'Alex's eyes are so sharp. He knows everything. He can tell from my subtle expression that I understood what he said to the person on the other side of the phone.

Then, he even talked in Spanish with Eva. Eva replied him in fluent Spanish.

Lita was silent. She was treated as an invisible person. She didn't understand what they were talking about, but only knew that they were talking happily. She was redundant, not even an audience.

If they weren't talking about something they didn't want her to know, why would they have to speak in Spanish?

An idea suddenly occurred to Lita. "Wouldn't it be good for Alex to marry this tough girl Eva? Although Eva doesn't have the noble social status like Bella, Eva is rich in spirit. Especially she has a tough character' Lita subconsciously looked at Alex and Eva who were talking happily. It seemed that they were very suitable for each other.

When they were back to Selmy Family, Harry and Doctor Cullen had already waited outside the courtyard.

As soon as Alex parked the car, he got off the car and walked into the living room hurriedly. He ignored Lita and Eva, who were struggling to move out from the front passenger seat.

With the help of Lita, Eva staggered into the living room. She did not insist on leaving. Doctor Cullen treated Eva's wound. Lita brought two bowls of millet porridge from the kitchen and they ate together.

"Eva, what did Alex say on the phone just now? I saw that he was very angry. He shouted and smashed headphones." In the end, Lita couldn't help but ask Eva.

Eva suddenly smiled. "Lita, you care about Alex so much. Why wouldn't you admit that he is your boyfriend?"

Lita's face darkened. Then, as if she had mustered all her courage, she calmly confessed to Eva, "In fact, I'm already married! Just a month ago."

"What? You and Alex are married?" Eva said in surprise, "So quick!"

"No...not Alex! It's his brother, Ethan!" Lita bit her lip. "Ethan's face was ruined by the fire. You should have read about it in the news."

"What? Alex is Ethan's younger brother? You...you're married to Ethan? Wasn't Ethan... injured in the fire and can't even take care of himself? You... Why would you marry him?" Eva was so shocked.

She was shocked that Alex and Ethan were brothers and that Ethan was the man that Lita married. In other words, Alex was Lita's brother-in-law and Lita was Alex's sister-in-law.

Upon Eva's questioning, Lita was speechless. What could she say? Should she say that she wanted to marry Ethan voluntarily?

"I know. Bishop family must have forced you to marry him." Such a reason was not difficult to deduce.

"I did it voluntarily. I was helping my uncle," Lita muttered softly.

"Then why wouldn't your uncle ask one of his daughters to marry Ethan? He bullied his niece!" Eva said indignantly.

Lita went silent.

Suddenly, Eva hugged Lita from behind and gently shook her body. "Lita, you silly girl, you have been treated unkindly. Why wouldn't you tell me? Do you still think I am your good friend?"

Lita sniffed her sore nose and said, "Eva,don't say that...I don't regret marrying Ethan. Although his appearance is ruined, he is talented and outstanding. So don't make fun of me and Alex anymore...We don't have thet kind of relationship you imagined. He cares about me because I'm his brother's woman!"

"I'm sorry, Lita. I didn't know!" Eva explained in a hurry.

"I am not blaming you! But you have to keep it a secret for me! I don't want Dean Oliver and the others to worry about me! And I don't want them to pity me or sympathize me! I don't think I'm pitiful!" Lita hugged Eva back.

Eva nodded and sighed silently. "Lita, you look weak, but you are tough inside! You are not like me. I just look tough, but in fact, I'm weak inside!"
