Chapter 125
Her eyes met the deep gaze of Alexander, and a faint halo danced on his handsome face, making it half light and half shadow.
Just like his contradictory nature, sometimes an angel, sometimes a devil.
Aveline was uncertain about proposing this condition. It was the first birthday party held for his child
with another woman.
The engagement banquet between the two of them had been postponed. Nora wanted to announce her identity and status to the world, so she scheduled the birthday party, sending out invitations to celebrities, wanting everyone to know about it.
Obviously, Aveline, as his ex–wife, was not suitable to attend.
Although the man didn’t say anything, his inherent arrogance was constantly exerting pressure, making
Aveline even more nervous.
She didn’t even realize that her palms were sweating.
He stared at her seriously for a while before lazily saying, “Alright.”
With the affirmative answer, Aveline’s tense body finally relaxed.
She didn’t dare to show too much expression in front of Alexander. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see through her calculations with just one glance.
The car soon arrived at the Sterling residence, and she knew what he had in mind.
Lucas had already opened the car door for her. There was no snow tonight, but the wind was song, piercing through her body from all directions.
Alexander didn’t walk as fast as before. He stopped not far away, seemingly waiting for her.
It was only after Aveline got out of the car that he resumed his stride. Aveline followed behind him calmly.
She didn’t have a good impression of the Sterling residence, but for the sake of her plan, she had to comply for now.

The door on the second floor opened, and Aveline reluctantly followed in with her shoes on.
The moment she stepped into the room, her body was pressed against the wall. “Hen…”
Before she could finish her words, the man’s dominant aura swallowed them up.
He showed no mercy, attacking like a storm, as if he wanted to devour her completely.

Aveline couldn’t understand why this man, who had just returned to the country, didn’t go find his new lover but instead clung onto his enemy.
Wasn’t he supposed to be repelled by her?
In a daze, Alexander had already unzipped his down jacket, revealing a sweater inside.
Without the protection of the down jacket, she instantly felt insecure.
Aveline struggled to separate herself from him, placing her hands on his chest. “Mr. Sterling, I know you’re in a hurry, but please don’t rush.”
In the darkness, Alexander’s hoarse voice came through, “Aveline, I have a lot of patience tonight.”
Even if she were an onion, he had plenty of time to peel off her layers.
“Let’s take a shower first. I’ve been at the hospital all day.”
“I don’t mind.”
If it wasn’t for his perverted thoughts, Aveline wouldn’t believe it.
She pushed him away forcefully. “Just a moment.”
Aveline hurried to the bathroom, thinking about how to politely and tactfully refuse.
Before she could close the door, a slipper forcefully wedged itself at the edge, and the next second, Alexander’s tall figure squeezed in.
“Let’s shower together.”
He casually took off his suit jacket, revealing a white shirt underneath.
His slender fingers unbuttoned the shirt, loosening the collar. In an instant, he lost his restraint and politeness, becoming casual and wicked.

Those pitch–black eyes stared at her face intently, and his thin lips parted. “From your expression, do you have any objections?”
Aveline quickly found an excuse. “I…?”
Before she could finish her sentence, he forcefully pulled her into his embrace. Her soft body instantly lost control, weakly clutching onto his shirt. He supported her waist, barely stabilizing her swaying body.
After standing firmly, she instinctively stepped back, but the man gradually pushed her towards the washbasin.
