Falling for my ex’s uncle novel

hapter 121 Chapter 121 I was sitting in the car .

The temperature in the car seemed to have been turned up a few degrees .

The car was quiet , isolating the sound of the rain pattering against the windows There was a faint scent of cologne and a trace of alcohol on Alexs body .

The front fender of the car loomed , dividing the space between us and the driver 1 guessed that Alex didnt want anyone to see what he looked like when he was drunk .

I took a deep breath and glanced at Alex sitting with his eyes closed .

Hed had a few drinks at dinner , and now he seemed a bit drunk .

Just as I was about to close my eyes for a nap , Alex sat up straight , his expression turning serious .

Id never seen him look so cold before it was a little scary .

Whats your relationship with Isaac ? His gaze slowly shifted to me , a faint smile tugging at the corners of his lips .

If theres no relationship , why were you so nervous when you saw Isaac ? Nervous ? I thought .

I hadnt realized Alex could pick up on that .

I bit my lower lip and whispered , Isnt it normal to be a little nervous around a handsome guy like Isaac ? Suddenly , Alex leaned toward me , narrowing his eyes .

He brushed a loose strand of hair from my forehead , tucking it behind my ear .

So , am I good looking , or is Isaac better looking ? My mind went blank , and I instinctively raised my hands to push against his chest .

We were in a car , and I was not sure if he was drunk or just angry .

I quickly steadied my breath and replied seriously , Of course , youre good looking .

Otherwise , I wouldnt have married you .

A small , sexy smile curved Alexs lips , but his eyes held a mocking gleam .

I thought it was my money you were after , he said .

Whod refuse money ? I forced a fake smile .

Alex narrowed his eyes , then sat back again .

Finally , I could breathe normally again .

This Alex he couldnt stop tempting me .

Casually , he grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the door compartment and took a sip .

Not only do I have money and looks , but I must also be good in bed , right ? he said .

What ? I blushed instantly , embarrassment flooding me .

After a moment of stunned silence , I realized there must be cameras in front of the company .

How can you just eavesdrop on other peoples conversations ? I said , a little flustered .

I was secretly chagrined clearly , I 1/4 33 % Chapter 121 would need to be on constant alert around Alex from now on .

He might even plant a bug on me at some point .

Alex sneered .

I just hope there arent any secrets between us that cant be made public .

I raised an eyebrow and looked at him with a calm expression .

So , how much are your personal assets ? About tens of billions .

I dont really care about the exact amount , Alex answered without hesitation .

Youre not worried Ill run off with your fortune ? I asked .

He glanced at me lazily , his lips curling into a light smile .

Youd better worry about how to get my heart .

If I were all yours , my money would naturally follow .

I bit my lip and quickly shifted my gaze , smiling faintly .

This was clearly an attempt to seduce me , using money as bait .

But I wasnt foolish enough to take him at his word .

Cunning people were always good at lying .

He was Alex ! He had seen all kinds of women .

He chose me just to block those who might get in his way .

And he thought that I was easy to manage .

After all , a little money could buy me off .

In this way , it wouldnt spark gossip , nor would it leave any evidence behind .

What he was doing now was just a test .

Therefore , I would never do something to offend him .

-I was just relying on his power to challenge Samantha .

In fact , it was all because I could feel that he was bored with Samantha .

Ive never like women who are too smart for their own good , he said .

I smiled knowingly and nodded .

It was rare for him to speak so honestly .

Indeed , if I wasnt so stupid , I wouldnt have stayed by Austins side for six whole years .

Are you being sarcastic , or are you praising me ? I asked .

Alex sighed .

I just want to remind you not to be too smart sometimes .

Does that mean you want to marry Kailyn ? I asked , raising an eyebrow .

Alex looked up at me , his gaze soft but his smile gone .

His voice sank into seriousness .

Do you think Im the type of person who often changes ? I nodded slightly .

Dont worry , I wont betray you .

Alex heard my answer and nodded in satisfaction .

Alex sure knew how to play his cards .
