Felix Moore grew impatient and urged Winson Tall.

"Winson, hurry up!"

Winson Tall glared at Felix and turned to Alex Cohen.

"I just…”

"Come on!"

Alex raised his hand to stop Winson and said with disdain, "I don't have a godson like you!"

After he said this, he did not wait for Winson to respond. Alex just bid adieu to Felix and left straight away.

It was just after 10:00 pm when Alex got back to his neighborhood. This was the latest he had returned since he joined the family. When he got out of the car, he noticed that the dishes Felix had taken away at the Drunken Beauty Restaurant were still in the car, so he brought them home. Before he entered the house, he was ready for a storm.

However, this time he was overthinking it.

Isla Sullivan was leaning against the sofa, and although she looked angry, she did not explode.

Alex casually put the plastic bag on the coffee table and sat down on the sofa. He admired Isla’s figure and said slowly, "Shouldn't you give me an explanation for what happened last night? As I said, we're in a partnership. But if you don't have even the most basic integrity, we can't work together at all."

Isla responded with a stern face.

"How do I not have integrity?"

"You promised to spend one night with me, but you drugged me and went off with your boy toy? Not only do you have no integrity, but you also have no shame…”

"Son of a b*tch! Don't accuse me! Alex Cohen, do you have a brain? If I had a boy toy, would I go to him when I’m on my period? I was meeting my best friend last night. I came back in less than two hours and slept next to you all night. I even took pictures. Unfortunately, my phone’s broken and I can’t show you the pictures."

Girlfriend?

Did he misunderstand her?

Alex's mood had calmed down a bit, but he did not know if what Isla said was true, and the possible cuckold had not been completely removed. He regained his composure and continued, "You call that sleeping with me all night too? You're just a scoundrel! Isla, if you don't give me a satisfactory explanation, I'll show you who's the bigger scoundrel! At most, we'll fight to the death. As they say, a beggar can never go bankrupt. I have nothing to lose!"

"We have to wait until my period is gone, don't we?"

Isla sulked and changed the subject.

"What's going on with the money in your card?"

"What's it to you?"

Alex had quickly learned Isla’s way of speech and snapped back. He got up and went into the bathroom. When he came out of the shower, he found that Isla was studying the dishes he had just brought back and was suddenly delighted.

"Is it good? How does it feel to finally have your turn in eating my leftovers?"

"What?"

Isla tossed one of the large lobsters she had just picked up back into the takeaway box. She was startled and asked, "You didn't buy this specifically for me?"

"All I can say is that...you overestimate your position in my heart."

"Then you're underestimating me too! I, Isla Sullivan, wouldn't be able to eat your leftovers even if it means I’ll starve to death!"

"Whatever."

Alex shrugged his shoulders and gracefully went back to his room.

Isla looked at the delicious food in front of her and was in a tangle.

She had not eaten since returning from work. She did not want to move and her phone was broken, so she could not order takeout. She only ate 2 bites of the instant noodles Alex bought and dumped it because she did not have the appetite. Now, her stomach was grumbling. In front of her was a display of delicious food, but she was too embarrassed to eat.

There was nothing more torturous than this in the whole world.

Isla could not help but swallowed her saliva. She hesitated, then picked up the big lobster again and took a bite of the tender meat.

Oh my! It was simply delicious...

The next morning, Alex was still asleep when he was awakened by Isla.

"Get up and let’s go to work!"

Alex opened his eyes and stared blankly at Isla as he asked, "What work?"

"You think you don't have to do anything if you take half a million from me? I paid you to deal with my parents and Jared Xavier. He just called me and is already on his way over here. He said he has something for me. You're coming to and from work with me today, so just be a good shield!"
