Substitute Bride For Young Master
Chapter 120: Misunderstanding (Again)

Alex watched Kinara who had been busy preparing for two hours, but the dinner was still an hour and a half away. He did not mind at all even though his wife had dismantled almost half the contents of the closet and tried all the dresses.

“You want to go out for a while to look for clothes? There is still time if you want,” bargain when he saw his wife pecked herself in front of the mirror with a look of dissatisfied face.

Kinara shook her head quickly. “No. Not necessary. I will use the existing only,” he replied.

“You look really pretty in any dress, Baby, don't think too much about it. We will only have dinner, not attend the wedding of the prince from Dubai,”, Alex said when he saw Kinara picking up another dress from the closet.

“That's what you think. I'm pretty sure granny doesn't agree with you,” replied Kinara with a wry smile on her face, “I don't want to embarrass you with my usual appearance."

“You are amazing, Darling ... I'll–“

“Shht .. I don't want you to do anything. Let me handle it myself. Okay?”

Alex approached his wife and hugged her waist. “Alright, Princess. Do whatever you want. I'll wait for you outside.”

“Thank you, dear,” said Kinara. She immediately took off her maroon dress and changed it for the black dress she had just picked up.

Alex walked out and sat in the living room. He played the phone in his hand. Ana's doctor just reported on the development of a chip embedded in Billy's head. They have not gained access to decide what information can and cannot be copied from Billy's memory. However, the woman was pretty sure the success rate of this experiment could reach 80 percent. If calculated from the speed of the virus infecting the chip, it means they still have to wait at least two to three more weeks.

Can Billy last that long?

There are many things and possibilities that can happen in just one night, especially in the period of two or three weeks. If something bad happened to Billy, he would definitely feel guilty for life.

“What makes your facial expression that bad?”

Alex looked up and found that the figure he had just thought of was sitting in front of him on his feet. In his little heart, Alex is amazed at Billy who can still behave normally in front of him, as if nothing bad is happening. He knew that not everyone could survive like his best friend.

“Why are you here?” ask Alex with a ketus. Although amazed and grateful to Billy, he was still a little annoyed because the man brought his dumpling escape without permission.

“Taste your wife very good,” seductive Billy, “I want to taste her again.”

“That's it!” alex growled, clenching both his hands on his thighs. Looking at his annoying best friend's behavior, it seemed like he was in a good mood.

Billy chuckled with satisfaction as he managed to provoke Alex's emotions. Among all the madness that befell him, he really needed some entertainment.

“Where is Kinara?” billy asked after he had muffled his laughter.

“For what to find my wife?” sergeant Alex looks at Billy with his sharp, menacing eyes.

“There's something I want to talk to him about. Wh why? Can't?”

“You—“

Alex just wanted to scold Billy again, but his wife's appearance from behind the door left him silent. That woman of hers looks so charming. The black dress she wore was not very open, but still looked beautiful and elegant. The thin makeup on her face confirmed her perfectly radiating natural beauty. Jeez ... Alex took a deep breath. His wife was really beautiful to the point that it felt like she wanted to carry the woman back into the room. He did not want his wife's beauty to be seen by others.

“Don't look at him like that!” alex said when he saw Billy looked fascinated by Kinara's appearance.

“The two of you, why fight every time you meet? Make a headache, know?” gerutu Kinara while staring at her husband and Billy alternately.

“Your appearance tonight is amazing,” praise Billy without heeding the murderous gaze Alex cast on him, “It's not wrong Alex chose you as his wife. She is indeed good at—“

“Close your mouth. Only I can praise my wife. Understand?”

Kinara rolled her eyes with a slash. “Stop. You're both. I'm like babysitting two teenagers here,” suck.

Billy chuckled without feeling sinful at all. He restored his hair and got up from the chair saying, “I came to encourage you. Do not lose or feel intimidated by the presence of a third person later.”

“Considered? The old man was so crazy about her. I don't know what he saw from the rotten woman,” grumbled Billy without covering the look of dislike on his face.

Billy's words instantly changed the atmosphere in the room. Alex puts on a cautious stance, while Billy prepares to attack.

“Billy,” scolds Alex with an icy voice, “Features speak.”

“What's wrong with my words? Your grandmother couldn't tell the difference between diamonds and garbage.”

“Quite,” serve Alex, “You're just upset that Jessica didn't pick you. Don't involve my grandmother in this.”

Billy snorted and laughed cynically.

“The only thing that pisses me off is to ever like it,” Billy replied as he returned Alex's gaze without fear, “Face your wife well. Don't let him be months in front of the crowd later. Do not let you feel regret as I feel.”

Billy walked out of the living room without looking back. Alex and Kinara were glued to their spot, staring at the back of the man who disappeared behind the door.

“Billy ever liked Jessica?” asked Kinara, feeling a little distrustful of her hearing just now.

“Yes. Before meeting her fiance, she was crazy about Jessica.”

“Despite knowing that you like that woman too?”

Alex nodded.

“Then, why has his attitude changed? Didn't his fiancee disappear? Why isn't she trying to get Jessica back? Why does he seem to be hostile to that woman? Isn't this a little weird?” cecar Kinara's.

“I told you, he's just pissed. Maybe Jessica rejected it again.”

“Do you think so? But I don't see Billy as that type of person.”

“Whisper once.” Alex got up from the chair and walked ahead of his wife. “Come, depart.”

Kinara's tongue was bitter. Does Jessica still have influence over her husband?

“Why angry with me,” grunts while following her husband.

Kinara walked past Lorie who this time was wearing a maid suit and greeted her at a glance. He opened the car door himself and sat with his face facing out. It feels upset not playing.

I ‘kan just want to know, why should be acting such a bitch? Really annoying! gerutu Kinara in heart.

Alex looked at Kinara with a hint of guilt. He was upset that Billy was paying more attention to his wife than himself. Even though his goal was good, it still made him jealous of the attention of his best friend.

She had no idea that Granny would invite Jessica. It also did not occur to him to calm his wife's heart when in the room earlier. He was insensitive even though Kinara chose clothes nervously, and it upset him for not realizing what his wife was feeling. Plus Billy who alludes to Jessica and granny. He gets very upset at himself, then vents it out on Billy and Kinara.

Absolutely perfect, Alex! Nice work!

The man took a breath and grabbed his wife's hand. “Sorry, I didn't mean to-"

Kinara pulled out her hand. “It's okay,” she replied without turning her head towards her husband.

Thinking about the possibility of Alex still being tied to Jessica in her subconscious, made Kinara become restless and filled with negative thoughts. He had told the truth about Jessica, Billy had shown a signal that something was wrong with the woman. However, Alex still seems to be in disbelief. If not for the taste, then what?

The awkward silence froze the air in the car. The feeling of warmth and comfort instantly turned cold and bland. The two people sitting side by side were dissolving in their minds.
