The Invisible Rich Son-in-law
Chapter 53
And the moment he touched that point with his finger, the office door opened, with none other than Dorothy Assex standing on the other side.
He sees Alex's hand on Cheryl's body, which shows no signs of resistance. He charged forward and swung his hand at Alex's face.
"Plac. Slap it!"
Slapped by Dorothy Assex, Alex Rockefeller looked at her in surprise, while Cheryl exclaimed, "How can you hit her!"
Dorothy glared at the doctor-robed woman and said, “What's up with that?"
We are still husband and wife, and you are nothing but a mistress!”
A nurse came by then, wanting to see Cheryl, and was quickly distracted by the drama unfolding before her eyes.
All she could think of was Cheryl, granddaughter of California's Miracle
Doctors and hospital stars, become the mistress of others.
Alex frowned, looking at the nurse's presence. In a hurry, he pulled Dorothy aside and said,
“Stop talking nonsense. There is nothing between Dr. Cheryl and I!”
Dorothy roughly pulled her hand. “Get your hands off me! What the hell are you doing? My
see everything!”
The scene caught the attention of several more nurses.
Alex understands the danger if things are left to him. Dragging Dorothy
behind him, Alex jumps to close the door.
“I'm sorry, Dr. Cheryl! I count on you for my mother! My wife must have accepted my mother-in-law's psychotic nonsense. My
I'm so sorry!”
Trying her best to keep Cheryl's innocence, she drags Dorothy away until they come to their senses
remote stairs.
He was just about to leave when he took offense and bit his arm.
Surrounded by a tremendous wave of pain, Alex manages to suppress that power.
Otherwise, Dorothy's teeth would have chipped away.
Alex looked at him and smiled. “I'll be damned by that overreaction! You still care, don't what your mother says? Is it like, I'm having an affair with Dr. Coney, and we're currently living together?
Of course, your sister was there to fan
fire too! Don't think that I don't know what they're saying. Do you trust me?"
Dorothy glares. "No."
"Oh no, I thought your mother said it every day?"
“But... I saw it with my own eyes!”
Alex gathered her courage and gently hugged her. “You are wrong, I just
ask for advice on how some acupuncture techniques are used on mom.”
"You sure?"
“Why should I lie?”
“Then, I want you to come to lunch with me.”
“Of course, the queen will never starve! Lefs go. I know a good restaurant near here.”
They got into Dorothy's car with Alex in the driver's seat. Again, he called
courage and gently grabbed her pale yet delicate hand.
“Dorothy, you must
tired of your business trip. Let me take care of you from now on.”
It was a little awkward for a couple who had not been so familiar with each other all this time. When
Alex put his hand on his shoulder and brought his head closer…
And that silence was broken by the ringing of the phone.
Dorothy flinched back to her senses, and hurriedly pushed him away. “Why didn't you receive that call just yet?”
"Cheryl Coney" is displayed in the caller ID.
Seeing that, his attitude instantly turned cold.
