Revenge on My Heartless Husband and Daughter (Tiffany) novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114

“You think I’m some kind of joke?”

Alexander smiled at him.

“I was trying to do you a favor,” Ben continued. “But if you’re going to be stubborn about it, if you don’t accept my arrangement, then maybe it’s time to stop asking nicely.” He straightened his shoulders in a challenging stance.

But Alexander didn’t seem the least bit bothered by him. If anything, his smile widened. “Oh, Ben. I was hoping you’d say that.”

I remained where I was, watching the cold look in Alexander’s eyes. Ben must have realized his mistake, because he quickly took a step back and held his hands up.

“Look, Alpha Alexander, it’s not that I don’t want to help Ella. The girl is as stubborn as a mule. She’ll probably throw the money back in my face.”

Ella looked up at the brazen accusation. I almost laughed. Ben needed to keep his mouth shut. He was digging himself into a much bigger hole without realizing it. And from the look on Alexander’s face, he shared the same sentiment.

Alexander chuckled. “Stubborn, you say? How convenient for you. You have another excuse.”

“It’s not an excuse…

“Then prove it. Pay for her mother’s medical bills. Do it right now. Cover every single outstanding bill.”

All eyes left Alexander and shifted to Ben now. His mouth opened and shut, but no words came through. I watched his throat work as he swallowed, clearly wondering whether to submit or fight. He looked like a trapped animal, and I bet he knew he couldn’t win against Alexander. Best to give up now.

“Fine,” he muttered. “I’ll… I’ll take care of it.”

Alexander smiled widely. “How generous of you.”

As if propelled forward, Ella suddenly rushed to her feet and went to hide behind Aleena again. I didn’t blame her. We all knew Alexander wasn’t done with Ben. He wouldn’t let him off with just a flimsy promise.

“Since we’re celebrating your newfound generosity, perhaps we should toast with something befitting the occasion.” He gestured to the top shelf behind the bar, where bottles of aged whiskey sat. “The Macallan 25, I think. At eight hundred dollars a bottle, it seems appropriate for someone so… financially generous.”

Ben smiled proudly. “We have anything you want. Name it and I’ll have it in a glass for you.”

“A glass? Not the whole bottle? Come on, Ben, I thought you were better than that.”

“Wait!” Ben’s hand shot out and grabbed Alexander’s elbow, stopping him from moving. One menacing glance from him and Ben dropped his hand. “How about we grab some late dinner? I know this great place that’s open till midnight.”

And then, Ben did the oddest thing. Just as he said the last sentence, he turned to the men and winked at them.

Alarm bells went off in my head. This was clearly a trap. Ben hadn’t been able to get anything out of Alexander yet, and this was just a ploy to buy himself more time. It wasn’t going to happen.

“Oh, I’m afraid that’s impossible,” I said, stepping between them. “Alexander’s dietitian has strict instructions. No eating nine–thirty.

Doctor’s orders.” It was a lie, but they didn’t have to know that. As long as it got him out of this mess.

Ben frowned. “His dietitian?” His gaze moved to Alexander. “Since when do you have a dietitian?”
