In an instant, the desire to protect the woman surged up in his heart.
Zen couldn't stand the tearful and pitiful look of Yen.
It seemed that if he didn't help her, he would commit a big crime.
"Okay, okay, my lady, I'll call him right now!" Zen took out his mobile phone and called to Alex house.
Soon a faint smile appeared on Yen tear bathed face. It could be seen that she was not happy, but it was not because she was held captive, but because the man named Alex was not there!
If he was by her side, the hell would turn into the paradise.
And the paradise without him would be hell for her!
Therefore, after Yen found out the whereabouts of Alex, she tried every means to escape from the palace-like castle and followed the trace of Alex.
At two o'clock in the morning, a landline suddenly rang in the Selmy house, almost causing a commotion in the whole villa except for Ethan's treatment room.
Perhaps because the phone was answered only after quite a few rings, Lita was waken up from her dream. She opened her sleepy eyes with effort and asked, "Who called so late? He must have something urgent."
Alex, who was sleeping next to her, mumbled to respond her. He slept later than Lita did. Originally he intended to have some kind of special activity, but perhaps because he was too tired and too sleepy, he fell asleep while watching the beauty in his arms.
This kind of leisure and coziness of family life was something Alex hadn't experienced for four months.
Feeling the strong arm around her waist, Lita realized that she had fallen asleep with Ethan.
"Ethan..." Lita instinctively reached out her hand to turn on the light at the bedside.
"Don't turn on the light!" Alex said in a deep voice. Because he wasn't wearing the sound changing device, his voice was clear and deep, though Alex had deliberately lowered his voice.
Although the voice was deep, it was not as old as Ethan's, and it wasn't his usual magnetic voice either. It was something in between.
"Ethan?" Lita muttered in confusion. She tried to touch Ethan beside her.
Because they were pressed against each other, Lita could feel that the man's skin was smooth and healthy.
At the moment when the light was on, Alex pulled a blanket over swiftly and covered himself from head to foot.
"Ethan, why did you wrap yourself so tightly?" Lita was a little surprised.
"I'm afraid I'll scare you." Alex's voice was heavy and low.
"I'm not afraid anymore..." Lita's heart skipped a beat.
She didn't expect that Ethan would be so considerate. He was afraid that she would be scared by his burnt face in the middle of the night.
"Don't wrap yourself in the blanket. I'm not afraid really." Lita approached Alex.
The more considerate her husband was to her, the more guilty she felt. Two days ago, she just slept with Alex...
Recalling that, Lita felt that she had been horrible to her husband.
"Mr. Alex...Mr. Alex..." downstairs came the urgent cry of Harry. As he cried, he had already rushed up to the second floor.
Alex, who was under the puffy blanket, frowned with disapproval and thought, 'Has Harry become muddleheaded because of his age? Didn't he know that I'm playing Ethan tonight?"
"Lita, go out and have a look." Alex tactically drove Lita away.
"Oh, okay." Lita answered and took to her heels. After all, Harry voice was very urgent. Something important must have happened.
In the corridor, Lita nearly bumped into Harry who rushed upstairs in a hurry.
"Mrs. Selmy, where's Mr. Alex? Is he asleep?" Harry asked anxiously.
Lita was stunned. How could she know whether Alex was asleep or not?
Perhaps in Harry's mind, the news about Yen was much more important than Alex's disguising as Ethan in front of his wife.
"I, I didn't see Alex... Didn't he go out earlier tonight? Has he come back?" Lita asked in confusion.
"Alas, why does Alex still have the mood to play this game?"
said Harry, ignoring Lita who was puzzled at his words, and ran towards the main bedroom.
"Harry, Alex is not in that room...Ethan is sleeping in there." Lita kindly reminded him.
When Lita and Harry walked into the bedroom together, there was no one in it. Only Ethan's wheelchair remained there.
Ethan had left? Where did he go? It was inconvenient for him to move, so where could he go?
"Ethan..." Lita let out a soft cry and instinctively went into the bathroom to look for him.
Knowing that it was the trick of Alex, Harry sighed. Without saying anything to disclose his secret, he turned around and left the room. He walked towards the treatment room. Needless to say, Alex, who got rid of Lita just now, would definitely come out from the treatment room.
Because he needed to find a reasonable excuse for his sudden appearance.
Failing to find Ethan in the bathroom, Lita couldn't help but panic. She hurriedly chased after Harry and went to the treatment room.
Sure enough, Alex opened the door of the treatment room and came out.
"Alex, is your brother inside?" Lita was eager to squeeze in and have a look.
"My brother is tired. I just sent him back to the treatment room." Alex's strong body blocked the door. He sneered slightly and said, "Lita, I know you have some need physically, but you'd better endure it! My brother is a patient after all, and he can't satisfy you!"
If it were three days ago, when Lita was still a virgin, maybe she could not understand the implication of Alex. However, after experiencing what happened between men and women, Lita could guess what it meant by 'some need'.
Immediately, Lita's little face blushed. This evil man had destroyed her innocence.
"Alex, you...don't you accuse me groundlessly!" Lita was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. Harry was present too. How could he speak so impudently?
"No wonder you always want to see my brother...It turns out that your needs are so strong! You don't even let go of a patient?"
Alex had been looking for a grand excuse to stop Lita from going to the treatment room to see Ethan. Now the excuse came by itself.
Probably for ten days or half a month, this woman wouldn't dare to ask to see his brother.
"Alex, you...you... You are so dirty and mean!"
Alex's ridicule made Lita almost not able to speak. She was so embarrassed that she couldn't argue with him anymore and had to leave with tears.
This man was too despicable.
After seeing Lita leave with anger, Harry sighed again and again. However, the young couple were in a quarrel, what could he say as a servant? He could only stand by and see Alex bullied his wife.
However, Harry had noticed that although Lita was bullied, Alex seemed to cheer up a lot. At least he wouldn't indulge in his hatred. So maybe it wasn't a bad thing.
As Doctor Owen said before, this was what Mrs. Selmy had to experience. Since she chose to marry into this family, she had to endure some hardship.
Because the rainbow after the storm was more beautiful and was worth cherishing for a whole life.
"Mr. Alex, bad news, something bad has happened..." It was Harry who took the call from Zen.
"What kind of big deal can make you so surprised?"
Alex had already checked Ethan in the treatment room. As long as Ethan was safe, nothing was a big deal for him.
"Harry, you are getting more diplomatic in handling urgent matters. Were you going to the bedroom to disclose my secret?" Alex said slowly and mockingly.
Just now, he almost revealed himself. Fortunately, Lita was silly enough and he managed to fool her successfully.
"Well... there's news about Miss Yen." said Harry, lowering his voice. "Just now, your assistant Zen called. I heard Miss Yen calling your name on the phone."
"Idiot!" Alex scolded, "Is Zen out of his mind? How could he call to this house?"
"Harry, make sure no one mention it to my brother!" Alex warned him and then hurried downstairs.
"I know, Mr. Alex." Harry followed him closely. He passed him his coat and the car key. "Do you need Nick to go with you?"
"No." Alex put on the coat and said decisively.
"Drive safe. Harry reminded him kindly Ethan had been in this condition, so there shouldn't be any accident happened to Alex.
The black Ferrari sped out on the asphalt road like an arrow leaving the bow. The freezing wind in the late night pierced through everything and blew up the dry leaves and made them dance in the air like butterflies.
Zen knew that his master must have come with anger, so he was ready for a dressing- down. Inadvertently, he raised his head and looked at the girl in the bed. She was really breathtaking! Even if she was in a trance, she had a special kind of charm.
"Bang!" With a loud noise, Alex directly kicked the door in.
"Alex..." Yen exclaimed sweetly. Her affection could melt any man's heart that was made of stone.
Unfortunately, Alex was immune to her, not only because Yen was classified as Ethan's woman, but also because of the heinous crimes she had committed to Ethan.
"Are you crazy? How could you call to my house?"
Alex didn't even look at Yen. He rushed over and grabbed Zen's collars.
"I'm the one who forced him to call! If you want to hit someone, just hit me!"
Behind him came the sound of the iron chains, and then Yen hugged Alex's firm waist tightly from behind.
"Alex, hug me...and I'll tell you who the mastermind is, okay?"
