"Are you Alex?" | was a little uncertain.
After going through the last two incidents, | did not even know if the person standing in front ofwas actually
him or a stranger wearing a mask of Alex's face.
He smiled delightedly and leaned down with his hands against the wall, closing the distance between us.
"Of course, | am. Who do you think I am?"
"You can stand?" There was sanger in my tone.
These people seem to regard lying as routine.
"I can." Seemingly noticing my anger, he explained, "I didn't lie to you. What | said about the car accident was

Alex answered righteously, but | still felt like that was an excuse.
He straightened up and finally retracted his hands from beside my head. At this moment, the imprisonment he
had just imposed onwas finally lifted.
"I would like you to exercise more understanding. Being in this country is like being in the Hodds elders’ territory.
If | don't appear like this, I'm afraid they'll attackagain."
| took a deep breath. "I'm not interested in matters regarding your family. If you're here to tell a story today, go
find someone else. | don't have time." | turned to leave, but he raised his hand and blocked my way.
"I know that you're only interested in Mr. Grant and the children now. If I'm not mistaken, you cto cut the

A surge of courage cfrom

Perhaps it was because | had a new life in my stomach, or it might be because | had misunderstood. Theo and
eagerly wanted to listen to his explanation now.
In short, | suddenly lost my concerns from before and chose to question Alex directly at this moment.
"What | want is very simple. | want you to divorce Theo and go abroad to live with me.
"Why?" | looked at Alex in front of me. His legs were fine, but | figured his brain was malfunctioning.

and walked up to me. "I already learned about the incident with Munchkin's mother before this. Munchkin is
alone now, and he's still young. But he got so ill because of the people around Theo. Do you want him to
experience such things again in his life?"
"Of course not, but we don't need your protection!"
"Miss Lane, | know you're mad now, but please think about it. Have | done anything to hurt you ever since you
met me?"
I was silent for a moment.
"On the contrary, when did | ever not help when you and Munchkin when you two encountered danger?"

Alex was annoying, it was he who savedfrom Simon's hand. It was he who transplanted his kidney to
Munchkin, thus saving Munchkin's life
"But that doesn't mean I should trust you. Mr. Hodds, we knew of your purpose since the beginning. The things
you did were not done out of kindness."
| reminded him that everything he did, he did for himself.
