Teri’s lips curved into a sarcastic smile, saying, “Because Natasha is not Unity, and Alexei is not Dereck.”

Moreover, no one knew. Did she truly win?

Twenty years of sharing the same bed. Was it unwavering love or different minds? Only those involved know.

She looked at Chloe, her still stubbornly misguided niece, found it an eyesore, and averted her gaze.

“I’ll only advise you this one time. You are on your own,” said Teri.

Turning her back on Chloe, who was stunned, and the gloomy Westwood family villa, she left her own home.

Teri thought, ‘So this is what it feels like to be familyless and alone. Back then, when Unity lost her parents and husband, was she also this angry and resentful?

‘Unfortunately, no matter what, I have twenty more years than she did. I have no

regrets.‘

“Is everyone having birthdays all at once lately?” asked Natasha.

Natasha sat on the carpet, looking at the several invitations before her.

Besides Edgar’s upcoming birthday party, some who wanted to ingratiate themselves with Alexei but couldn’t find a way in, surprisingly took a different approach and sent invitations to Natasha.

Alexei was discreet, but he was anything but discreet when it came to Natasha.

Now, everyone outside knew Natasha was Alexei’s Achilles‘ heel.

“If you don’t want to go, don’t worry about them.” Alexei brought two cups of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice from the kitchen.

Mimicking Natasha, he settled comfortably on the carpet and pulled her into his

embrace.

The floor was covered with a mix of books, picture books, Lego, Ludo, and dolls… A varied collection. Alexei had a rare day off, and the two were cozied up at home, playing all sorts of childish games, as if reliving their childhood.

Natasha held an invitation from Ramona for an entertainment yacht party, and her eyes were fixed on it. She gasped, her mouth wide open, “Ah…”

Alexei instinctively brought grapefruit juice to her lips.

Natasha took a couple of gulps. “It depends on your availability. If you think it’s worthwhile, go. If you don’t like it, I don’t want to go either.”

‘Well, I can go to events like Ramona’s by myself,‘ thought Natasha.

Alexei smiled and kissed her soft cheek, then picked up an invitation she had discarded nearby.

Surprisingly, it was from the Clark family. It was for Madeline’s birthday party.

‘Well, they won’t give up,‘ thought Alexei.

Natasha also saw the invitation in his hand. Leaning against his chest, she poked the invitation with her finger. “There’s no need to drag things out with people you’ve cut ties with, but we can still send a gift.”

A hint of mischief gleamed in her eyes.

‘I heard Olivia has been humbling herself recently, managing to appease the previously resentful Clark family members with their strained relations. She even used the excuse that she could no longer dance, had lost her shares, and needed to find a job to support herself to sneak into the Clark family’s company.

‘Aren’t human relationships meant to ebb and flow?

‘I, her good sister, shouldn’t be able to live so easily.

‘And the Clark family, how can they celebrate Madeline’s birthday so free of

worries?

‘Some mysteries can also be revealed.’

Alexei nodded and disdainfully tossed the invitation aside again.

“Daron!” he called out.

Daron skillfully came over to deal with the trash.

Upon seeing Alexei boss the dog around again, Natasha shot him a glare, hugged Daron’s big head, and kissed it. “Daron, you’re such a good boy. I’ll reward you with a big bone tonight.”

She glanced at Alexei and said, “Have your bad owner stew it.”

Alexei had no objection to stewing the bone, but he had a big problem with her kissing the dog again.

He hugged her from behind, burying his head in her shoulder and complaining, “Honey, may we make a deal? Can you stop kissing it from now on?”

Thanks to Natasha, he and Daron kissed each other indirectly countless times.

And, how could his wife’s kiss be given to any other creature, not even a dog?

Natasha smiled, pinching his muscular arm wrapped around her waist. “Alexei, why are you so jealous?”

Alexei kissed her soft, fragrant red lips, coaxing, “You can be jealous, too. I like it when you’re jealous of me.”

He was overjoyed when his wife told him he was hers alone.

Natasha, who saw right through him, scoffed playfully, “I won’t reward you.”

Alexei chuckled, “Then, I’ll reward myself.”

He laid her flat on the carpet and pressed himself onto her.

Natasha dodged, laughing incessantly as his ticklish kisses teased her.

She bit his lip gently. “No,” she said. “We haven’t finished building our Legos yet.”

Alexei didn’t care about Lego. “Stop playing with it. Play with me.”

“No, you’re not fun.”

‘He’s stiff and tiring, thought Natasha.

Alexei, who was usually so aloof outside, seriously argued, “I’m fun. You can play with me however you want.”

Upon seeing a hint of interest in her eyes, Alexei chuckled softly into her ear, “This time, I promise to control myself and not resist.”

Natasha’s eyes were suspicious.

She had been tricked more than once.

To show his sincerity, Alexei released her, rolled over, and lay spread–eagled on the carpet, looking completely harmless and inviting.

Natasha thought, ‘If you keep doing that, I won’t be able to resist.‘

*****

Swindler!

Natasha got out of bed at noon the next day, realizing a wonderful weekend shouldn’t be entirely wasted in bed.

Natasha and Alexei, the young couple, held hands and decided to go shopping.

For Alexei, who had a packed schedule, it was truly a novelty.

His clothes were mostly custom–made. For some brands, the representatives would deliver them directly to his door.

On the contrary, after being with Natasha, he occasionally didn’t have servants prepare food and would go grocery shopping himself, frequenting places like supermarkets more often.

In Alexei’s view of the past, the act of shopping was no different from wasting time.
