Chapter 1275: Chapter 667: Extra Story: How the Little White Rabbit Deals with "Rivals" 1

His voice didn’t show any anger, which made her a bit ashamed.

Actually, these past few days apart from him, she’s really missed him.

She really wanted to hug him...

Alice slowly walked up to him, suddenly hugged him, her voice choked with emotion, "I’m sorry, Chester... do you think I’m really being unreasonable?"

Chester gently hugged her, his hand patting her back softly, his face pressed closely to hers, the fragrance of her hair permeating his breath, his voice tender and low, "Is it uncomfortable staying here?"

"Yes."

She didn’t want to tell him the reason, because she knew he would explain to her again that there was nothing between him and Becca.

In fact, she also believed that his feelings for Becca were nothing now, but she still couldn’t help but dwell on the feelings he once had for Becca... Loving someone for many years, she knew better than anyone how difficult it was to give up someone you love, so she could never get over this hurdle in her heart.

Seeing him laugh and joke with Becca, she was really jealous, really jealous, she felt that only in front of Becca he would have that kind of relaxed and comfortable smile... However, she really didn’t want to argue with him, she really loved him.

"Since you’re uncomfortable, I’ll have a word with Aunt Evelyn, and I’ll find Howard Geoffrey at the company when I have time." Chester said gently, coaxing her.

Alice said nothing, feeling more guilty for his tolerance.

Chester pulled her away and gently kissed her forehead, "I’ll go talk to Aunt Evelyn now. You pack your bags, and we’ll leave in a bit."

Alice grabbed Chester’s hand, her head bowed, apologetically, "I’m sorry, I was being unreasonable just now... Let’s go home after you finish talking to Howard Geoffrey!"

Chester held Alice’s hand, wrapping her small hand in his warm palm, gently saying, "It’s okay, I can talk to Howard Geoffrey about business another time... You’re not comfortable living here, so we’ll go home early."

"But..."

Chester bent down and gave her a deep kiss, "Be good, go pack your things, I’ll go say goodbye to them."

In Alice’s apologetic expression, Chester left the room.

In the hall, Mrs. Geoffrey was astonished, "Chester, are you and Alice leaving now?"

Chester smiled, "I’ve been busy these days, I won’t have time to pick Alice up then, so I might as well pick them up today."

"If you’re busy, Alice and Rachel can stay here. We’ll take good care of them for you, besides, Alice’s health hasn’t fully recovered yet."

"Thank you, Aunt Evelyn, for taking care of Alice and Rachel these days. Don’t worry, there are many servants at home, they’ll take good care of Alice."

"But..."

Christine Quinn, holding Dorian Jones, walked over to Mrs. Geoffrey’s side and teased, "Mom, I think Chester is eager to go home with Alice for some alone time, don’t be a third wheel..."

Mrs. Geoffrey was taken aback for a moment before she realized, affectionately admonishing, "You kid, why so impatient, don’t forget Alice hasn’t fully recovered, that’s not okay... too frequent, remember to always be careful in the future..."

Chester was embarrassed.

Christine laughed on the side.

Mrs. Geoffrey, also a little shy due to her age, coughed and said seriously, "Alright, I’ll go upstairs and help Alice and Rachel pack some clothes... You two can come back to stay whenever you want."

"No need, Aunt Evelyn, Alice will pack."

"Oh dear, she hasn’t recovered yet, how can she do anything, I’ll go pack..."

Mrs. Geoffrey turned and was about to go upstairs, just in time to meet Rebecca Quentin coming down from the second floor.

Rebecca, holding Anna, asked about the situation and then went downstairs to ask Chester, "Are you and Alice leaving?"

"Yes, I’ll be busy in a few days, I’m afraid I won’t have time to pick up Alice then."

Rebecca said disappointedly, "But Alice and I haven’t seen each other for so long, we haven’t had a good chat, can’t you stay a couple more days?"

Chester smiled warmly, "We’re all in New York, there’ll be time to catch up in the future."

"But didn’t you say you had something to discuss with Howard Geoffrey?"

"It’s not very important, I’ll talk to him when I have time."

"Alright then... I’ll find time to chat with Alice later."

"Okay."

"Make sure you take good care of Alice!"

"I will."

"Anna, say goodbye to Uncle Robinson..." Rebecca sweetly instructed her daughter in her arms.

Anna obediently waved goodbye to Chester.

Chester smiled and hugged Anna.

Waving goodbye to everyone in the Geoffrey family, Alice got into Chester’s car.

Under the concerned and reluct ant gazes of the Geoffrey family, the car drove away from the Jones’ Mansion.

Rachel sat beside Alice, sullen.

Alice embraced her daughter and asked, "Rachel, what’s wrong?"

Rachel looked up at Alice, very disappointed, "Mommy, why can’t we stay at Grandma’s a few more days?"

Alice’s face turned a bit pale, not knowing how to answer the child.

Rachel pouted, "Grandma also said she’d make my favorite cookies tonight, and I promised Marie and Andrew that we’d play hide and seek..."

Alice remained silent, but Chester’s gentle voice came to her ears, "Daddy has things to do in a couple of days and won’t have time to come pick you and Mommy up, so we’ll go back early."

"We can still go back tomorrow, I haven’t had Grandma’s cookies yet!" Rachel murmured, complaining.

"Be good, Rachel, you can come play at Grandma’s when there’s time later." Chester asserted with fatherly authority.

Rachel sulked, her lip pouting even more.

Alice didn’t say anything, she looked at Chester for a long time, then turned her head to look out the window.

They returned to Chester’s villa at three o’clock in the afternoon.

The child quickly forgot her anger once she got home and started playing with the gift Chester brought her, completely absorbed by it.

Alice stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the hall, lightly biting her finger.

Chester came over, leaned his head on her slender shoulder, and wrapped her from behind, "What are you thinking about?"

Alice slightly turned her head, looking at his gentle and handsome face, "You’re not angry with me?"

Chester laughed, "If I got angry so easily, I might die from anger in this lifetime."

Alice was amused by him, turned around, and wrapped her arms around him, "What, am I really so unreasonable?"

Chester chuckled, not daring to speak his mind. His darling could be quite unreasonable at times...

"Of course not... My wife is the most sensible."

Alice played with Chester’s tie, pouting slightly, and said softly, "You don’t need to coax me. I know my temper isn’t great, but I promise you I won’t be capricious anymore."

Chester buried his head in Alice’s neck, his large hand gently caressing her curvy rear, devilishly seductive, "If you’re not capricious, how could I show you how much I spoil you?"

Alice was very touched and smiled sweetly.

He swiftly bowed his head and kissed her, his hands beginning to roam, slowly moving upwards, teasingly dancing along her spine.

She dodged his kiss, shyly resisting, yet her voice was muddled due to his teasing, "Don’t be like this, we’re in the hall..."

He pressed her onto the sofa, "It’s closer here."

"..."

"Did you forget what the doctor advised?"

"I remember, but satisfying me doesn’t have to be just one way."

"..."

During dinner, Rachel was eating with her spoon, enjoying the food. Seeing her usually chatty mommy not speaking, Rachel curiously asked, "Mommy, why are you eating with your head down, and wearing such a high-necked dress, aren’t you hot?"

Alice raised her head, her face a bit flushed, "You little rascal, just eat your own food." After that, she glared fiercely at the person opposite her who was calmly eating.

Dressed in suit and tie, a picture of gentlemanly grace, but in reality... a complete pervert.

That damn man had left over a dozen kiss marks on her neck, almost causing her to scream when she checked in the mirror.

No decency, no morals, no humanity... practically a clothes-wearing beast.

The more Alice thought about it, the angrier she got, and she began cutting the steak on her plate with force to vent her frustration.

Chester timely spoke up, "What’s wrong? Is the food not good?"

Alice abruptly raised her gaze, seeing his calm and concerned eyes.

Alice was so angry her cheeks were puffed up. You’re putting on a show, keep pretending, keep up the act.

She accused him with her gaze.

He responded with a teasing smile.

Despicable!!

He continued to chew gracefully on the beef in his mouth.

Alice glared at him forcefully, mentally drafting countless scenes of revenge against him.

At that moment, his phone rang.

Only then did she pause the fiery exchange of glances.

He wiped his mouth with a napkin and took out his phone.

Seeing the number flashing on the phone, he said to her, "Sorry, I need to take this call."

She grunted, not wanting to pay him any mind.

He walked over to the window of the dining room to answer the call.

After a short time, he finished the call, returned to his place, picked up his suit jacket, and apologized, "Baby, I’m sorry, I might not be able to accompany you for dinner."

Alice stared at him blankly, "What’s wrong?"

"There’s an urgent matter at the company that needs dealing with... I have to head out for a bit, I might be back late."

"Can’t you leave after dinner?"

Chester bent down and kissed Alice’s cheek, "The situation is rather tricky. If I’m back late, you don’t need to wait up for me, just go to sleep early!"

Alice held onto Chester’s hand, "Then go slower, I will wait for you to come back."

Her obedient manner made him kiss her again, "Okay."

Rachel sensibly waved goodbye to Chester, "Bye, daddy."

Chester kissed Rachel before leaving.

At night, Alice leaned against the bedhead, boredly reading a book.

Her eyelids were already drooping, she yawned and glanced at the clock on the wall.

The hour hand was pointing to eleven.

She couldn’t help but complain inwardly, it’s so late, and he still hasn’t returned.

She was tempted to call him, but worried he might be socializing with business friends, in the end, she gave up the idea of calling.
