Chapter 246
Nora had honed her ability to read people’s expressions and words, and she could clearly sense
Alexander’s displeasure.
“So that’s how it is. I wasn’t clear about it before,” she said.
Alexander couldn’t be bothered to explain. “Aunt Jane, you may begin.”
“Alright,Mr. Sterling.”
The cleaning lady began her day’s work, and Nora looked her up and down. Seeing that the woman was not young and couldn’t possibly have any connection to Alexander, Nora started playing with her phone.
In her mind, Aveline cursed Alexander and his ancestors. Allowing Nora was one thing, but now they were sending someone to clean the room? Were they not satisfied with how slowly she was
dying?
But why would the cleaning lady be here at this time? Aveline found it strange. She wanted to take a closer look at the woman, but she was facing away, and Aveline could only see her thin figure.
She was also wearing a sun hat indoors, even though there was no sun to shield against. As time passed, and the cleaning lady finished cleaning the glass and was about to come over to dust the bookshelf, Aveline worried about what would happen if she was discovered.
She had only come to report on her work, and being found out now would be hard to explain. Aveline felt a headache coming on and quickly picked up her phone to send him a message.
But she realized that she had already blocked his Facebook, so she had to resort to sending a text.
The phone on the table vibrated, but Alexander seemed to have anticipated it and didn’t even look up. It was deliberate! Aveline was sure of it! Even after bombarding him with ten text messages,
Alexander didn’t respond.
Aveline had to call him, but Alexander just glanced at the phone and lowered his eyes. Infuriating! Aveline was so anxious that she was jumping up and down, and he was acting as if nothing was
wrong.
Even Nora noticed something was amiss and said to him, “Alexander, your phone is ringing.”

Alexander silenced it and said, “It’s just a nuisance call”
“Really? People nowadays have such thick skin. They keep exting non stop, Shell 1 hurdle for your
minder,
Nora clearly didn’t believe him. Alexander had a private member, and it wouldn’t have been leaked, so how could there be a nuisance call?
She closed her book and walked towards Alexander. Before she reached him, he answered the call.
“Hello.”
Aveline lowered her voice, “Stop playing around.”
Alexander chuckled softly. “Isn’t it interesting?”
Just the thought of her scratching her head and cheeks made him find it quite amusing, After all, he was used to seeing Aveline with a lifeless expression for a long time.
Aveline sighed in her heart and softened her voice. “Hen, please, stop playing around.”
With just four extra words, her attitude changed instantly. Alexander glanced at Nora, who was approaching, “Understood.”
Nora saw him hang up before she could see who was calling, and Alexander had already put the
phone away.
Alexander had no intention of teasing Aveline. His gaze fell on Nora’s face as he spoke, “I just remembered I have a meeting later. You can go back first.”
“It’s okay, I can wait…”
Before she could finish, Alexander called the internal line, and Jordan quickly appeared at the door.
“Take Miss Kingsley back.”
Nora had a lot to say but was promptly escorted out. Besides her, the cleaning lady was also asked to leave. “Auntie, you don’t need to clean the room today. You can go off duty.”
The cleaning lady was taken aback but quickly composed herself. “Okay.”
The door closed again, and Alexander lifted Aveline and placed her on the large desk.
