“Are you looking for Natasha?” asked Chloe.

Chloe stood before Alexei, who had emerged from the room with Natasha's coat.

Alexei glanced at her, standing nonchalantly with the coat draped over his arm, saying nothing, with hidden

impatience in his eyes.

‘l just want to take Natasha on a vacation. I'm in a rare good mood and don’t want any trouble, yet there are

always insensitive people,’ thought Alexei.

His indifference saddened Chloe. “You love her that much? | thought you'd never fall in love with anyone,” said

Chloe.

It was the belief that kept Chloe from feeling too much sadness, even when she had to distance herself from him

due to family matters. She knew she couldn’t have him, but she also believed no other woman in this world

would.

Alexei was meant to be admired, standing on a pedestal.

Love and romance were things he would never get involved with.

However, Natasha's presence shattered that perception. Chloe saw him in love, more alive than ever before.

Knowing that he could love made Chloe even more resentful.

If she had been more resolute when confronting her family, approached Alexei sooner, and openly confessed her

secret crush, would their story have been different?

Alexei raised an eyebrow. “What? Is it not obvious that I like Natasha?”

Chloe's face paled.

Alexei impatiently walked around her. “Alright, move aside.”

‘Natasha is still out in the wind. What if she gets sick from staying out longer? It wouldn't be enough to

compensate even if Chloe died,’ thought Alexei.

“Alexei Turner!” Chloe watched his retreating figure, bit her lip, and suddenly shouted, “I like you!”

Alexei didn’t even pause.

Red-eyed, Chloe chased after him, trying to embrace him from behind. “I like you! I've loved you since | was 17.

Why can’t you look at me?”

Alexei, who had sensed someone rushing toward him, swiftly dodged without turning his head, avoiding Chloe’s

hands.

Damn it!

He frowned, his expression showing clear disgust.

Alexei thought, ‘If that woman touched him, he would be tainted!

His eyes were dark, and a turbulent storm raged within them.

‘It seems we can accelerate the final move against the Westwood family.

‘For people like Chloe and Teri, scolding or driving them away is useless. They will never admit they are wrong.

‘Only by directly crushing everything they rely on and destroying the family background they are so proud of can

we deliver a decisive blow.

‘The Westwood family deserves to be eradicated.’

Chloe ran too fast, and without Alexei’s physical buffer, her foot tripped, and she fell heavily to the ground.

Embarrassed and hurt, she looked at his merciless face, asking, “Is it because of Aunt Teri? Is it because of her

that you're unwilling to accept me?”

Alexei looked coldly at Chloe on the ground. “Because | don’t like you, Miss Westwood. You are truly

bothersome.”

As the pampered daughter of the Westwood family, Chloe had never heard such blunt disdain.

Her lips trembled. For him, she had abandoned her pride and dignity, only to be

called bothersome?

“How am | worse than Natasha? In family background, ability, reputation, or demeanor, where do | fall short of

her?”

Alexei was about to leave, but hearing her disparage Natasha, he sneered, “How do you even compare to

Natasha? She doesn’t need to be compared to anyone. | love her simply because she is Natasha. Even if others

have a thousand virtues and she has ten thousand flaws, | will love the one and only Natasha.”

“Ms. Westwood,” his voice was icy, “Botheragain, and I'll make you regret ever being born.”

The ruthlessness in his eyes made Chloe, sprawled awkwardly on the ground,

shiver.

She inexplicably felt he would truly follow through.

However...

“Have you forgotten that night in Delori seven years ago? | saved you.” She bit her lip, playing her last card.

Alexei stopped in his tracks.

Chloe looked at him expectantly. “You can hate a woman who pursues you, but will you drive away a life-saver

who helped you?”

Upon seeing that he didn’t speak, she continued boldly, “If you insist on Natasha, | can accept you keeping her

as a mistress.”

She spoke insincerely, her heart bleeding, feeling she had made a great concession. “I only want to be Mrs.

Turner.”

Alexei did not speak.

Chloe stood up and stopped before him.

She knew he would be moved once he realized their connection began earlier than he thought.

She extended her hand to him. “Alexei, we are the most compatible people in this

world.”

The next second, as she anticipated him taking her hand, a large hand suddenly clutched her neck.

Chloe's breathing was suddenly cut off, her face quickly flushed red from lack of oxygen, and her eyes bulged in

terror.

Frantically, she grabbed the hand at her neck, struggling to pull it away, but it was useless. The overwhelming

fear of death enveloped her.

“Ale... Ale...”

Through her blurry, tear-filled eyes, holding her breath, her slowly fading pupils saw Alexei’s calm, cold gaze.

Alexei truly intended to kill her!

Chloe had never felt such fear.

But soon, even the feeling of fear began to fade.

Suffocation made her body turn cold. Eventually, her hand grasping Alexei’s wrist slowly dropped, her tiptoes

lost strength, and she plunged into an endless, dizzying darkness.

In the final second before death claimed her, Alexei released her, throwing her to the ground.

‘This is not a good place to kill someone. It would scare Natasha,’ thought Alexei,

Alexei ignored Chloe, who struggled on the ground like a dried-up sea fish. He calmly pulled a white

handkerchief from his pocket and meticulously wiped his

hands.

From beginning to end, Natasha's coat remained securely draped over his other

arm.

He tossed the used handkerchief beside Chloe's face. His smile was faint, completely devoid of the chilling

ruthlessness he had shown earlier when harming her, as if looking down on an ant.

“Ms. Westwood, your kindness that saved my life seven years ago almost killed

“More importantly, how dare you make my beloved a secret mistress?”

When Alexei thought of her shamelessly boasting about keeping Natasha as her mistress, he felt that it wouldn't

be enough to appease his anger even if she died.

“Natasha is not sgutter filth like you. She deserves only the best.”

Even if Chloe had saved him, which she didn’t, would Alexei be the type to repay

kindness?

To attempt to coerce him and drive Natasha away with that, Chloe was misguided.
