Chapter 311 - Alex And Kelly (Three)
She wasn't sure what he was searching inside the closet, and he did not put on even his underpants or a boxer yet.
Later then, Kelly just had a realization.
Instantly, cold sweat appeared in her hands and her heart pounding loudly. Could it be that he opened the drawers in the closet and found her lingerie?
All day, Alex was alone in the bedroom, and she could not help having wild thoughts. How if Alex has an undergarments fetish and steals one of her panties?
Oh, god! She was too careless and left the door unlocked because she had no spare key to the bedroom! Besides, even though she brought a few jewelry pieces worth a million dollars in total, the Davies servants were all trusted people. She didn't worry at all.
However, the guy thinks he can get in and out of her bedroom anytime he wants and as it pleases him!
Kelly was in her train of thoughts when her phone rang. Without looking at her phone to check out who was calling, she just pressed the button on the screen.
"My love!"
Kelly sat upright upon recognizing the voice on the other line. She brought her phone in front of her face to realize that it was a video call.
"Papa?"
"Yes, I am. Why are you surprised?" Mr. Amir Varghese asked his daughter. He wondered why his daughter was shocked when she could read his name on her phone screen. "Are you alright, love?"
"Ah! I am, papa! It's just that… I'm a little tired."
"Tired? Why?"
"I…" Kelly was about to tell her father that she went shopping with Hailee's sisters-in-law. However, she noticed that her father's eyes suddenly widened, and she looked shocked for a moment.
Kelly was startled when her father, Mr. Amir Varghese, yelled at her all of a sudden.
"Kalila Varghese!"
Kelly frowned after her father dropped her Arab name. But she was curious why her father looked in panic for a second.
"What is it, Papa?" Kelly asked softly. She wondered if she had done something wrong in the past and his father had just remembered.
"Who's that naked man in your bedroom!?"
Kelly sunk her body into the sofa as beads of cold sweat formed on her forehead. How did her father know!?
There was no way that her father would see Alex with the position of her phone. Perhaps her father learned that Hailey's European knights were here, and he has wild thoughts that she fools around with one of them! Maybe her father was only guessing.
Kelly was still struggling to deny her father's claims.
"Papa, what are you talking about? I'm alone in the room…" she was prepared to lie. However, she was caught red-handed.
"Then who is that man in the mirror?"
Kelly bites her bottom lip. She forgot about the massive mirror behind her! Oh, god! How would she explain it to her father? Would he believe Alex is only here to use the bathroom? Her father would not!
Alex was standing in front of the closet. It was too apparent that he was taking out his clothes, and he actually purposely moved slowly.
Kelly glanced at the guy with contempt. Alex wore jeans now and was pulling out a shirt from the closet, and now she had a better look. To the left side were her dresses, while Alex's clothes hung on the right side.
She cursed inwardly. It was evident that they were sharing the room! Now she was at a loss, and it would be useless if she explained it to her father.
Meanwhile, Alex was about to put the shirt around his head when he felt sharp glares shooting at him. He turned his head and met Kelly's eyes, and the girl quickly withdrew her eyes and shifted her gaze back to her phone screen.
"Who is that man, Kalila? You are not answering me yet."
Kelly frowned when her father kept dropping her real name. She glanced at Alex one more time, and she found him smirking at her.
She realized Alex could hear the conversation with her dad. Now the guy closes the closet, but he leans on it while staring at her. She rolled her eyes, but then, her father scolded Kelly.
Mr. Amir thought Kelly rolled her eyes because of his persistence to know who the man she shared a room with was. Kelly felt like she was pushed in the corner where she had no direction to go.
If she explained her father was mistaken, he would not believe her. But if she made up a story and would not deny it, she was scared that her father would make an impulsive decision.
And that is to force Alex to marry her!
Although her family lives in a modern environment, her family is still conservative in many aspects, like sleeping with a man outside wedlock is a no-no, but marriage first.
Now, what is she going to do? Her father misunderstands her!
Kelly could feel that her annoyance toward Alex was worsening. This guy is putting her in a complicated situation! She wanted to run toward Hailee and ask her for help. But she learned from the servants that Hailee took a rest early because she was not feeling well.
She felt helpless. The facial expression of her father darkened each second that had passed.
Biting her lip, Kelly swallowed the lump in her throat. She still didn't find any alibi she could use to reason out to her father. She heaved a long sigh, then spoke up.
"Papa… It was Alex, Hailee's cousin." Kelly's voice was nervous. Even so, she squeezed a faint smile.
Hearing the name, Mr. Amir fell into his own thoughts, racking his head as if the Alexander he knew was the same guy.
"It's Prince Alexander Gabril Martini." Kelly worried her father would not remember the guy, so she mentioned his royal highness' full name.
Mr. Amir remained silent for a long time. Kelly's chest tightens from the anticipation she is feeling at the moment. She was worried if her father was thinking about what was on her mind.
"Kalila. You should have come back to Dubai, and let's talk." Mr. Amir was too serious when saying this. It gives Kelly a shudder in her heart.
"Papa, I am helping Hailee prepare her wedding…."
Her father didn't let her reason out. He cut her midway through, and his words were like a bomb explosion to her ears.
"I want to talk to your boyfriend!"
