Chapter 176 Jenny was quite surprised at how relaxed Lily was as she looked at Lily‘s figure. Lily did not
dwell on her past relationship that failed. Instead, she chose to be cool about it and moved on. Lily was
now in a new relationship and living her life in style. She would have never expected to stay in the same
hotel as Melanie and Nathaniel if she did not run into each other at the restaurant. Then again, that was
the best hotel in town, so most who attended the sampling event stayed there. The prices also differed,
depending on the floor the rooms were on.
Lily waited a while before entering the elevator to Alexander‘s room. She did not notice last time, but his
floor was unusually silent. It was as if no one stayed on the same floor. Also, a thick carpet covered the

book the whole floor?” She asked as she stood at the entrance. Lily observed both ends of the hallway
and guessed it was the case.
“Yeah. It‘s much quieter this way.” Alexander nodded. Judging from his tone, this was typical of him, and
Lily was not surprised since this was his way of handling things. “What took you so long?” Alexander
extended his arms and pulled Lily into a hug. As a punishment, he lowered his head and lightly bit her
ear.
Lily moved away as she was ticklish. “I tried to come as soon as possible, but others were around. I
couldn‘t come too close, or people might see us.” “Others? I only saw one annoying pest,” Alexander
snarled as he thought of Nathaniel. Although Alexander did not like him, he did not care for Nathaniel
either. However, Alexander wanted to pick Nathaniel up and throw him out of the restaurant when he saw
Nathaniel approaching Lily.
“I was referring to Jenny,” Lily playfully slapped Alexander‘s hand away. She could tell he was jealous, so
she smiled and imitated Alexander‘s way of talking, “After you left, Jenny came, and well... she chased
the annoying pest away!” “Well done! I think she deserves a reward!” Alexander nodded in satisfaction.
Lily was amused. She could imagine the expression on Jenny‘s face if she knew she would get rewarded
just by chasing away some guy. “You‘re drifting off again.” Alexander turned Lily‘s body around to face
him. He was unhappy she was thinking about something else, so he lowered his head and kissed her

Lily responded passionately and circled her arms around him. She always felt happy whenever she was
with him. After what seemed like an eternity, Alexander finally released Lily‘s lips and rubbed his nose
against hers.
“Aren’t you curious about what Nathaniel said to me?” Lily thought Alexander would ask about her
conversation with Nathaniel since he was looking at them the whole time.
“Nope, I‘m not curious at all. He would‘ve just said some useless sh*t anyway,” Alexander remarked with
disgust. Lily was surprised by his precision that she wanted to give him two
thumbs up. “The fact he could temporarily solve the issue you caused made him arrogant. He wanted to
come over to rub it in your face,” Alexander added as he released Lily‘s hands and turned to prepare
some hot tea for Lily. The steam enveloped his face as he poured the hot water into the teapot. His
silhouette behind the steam was so majestic that it made Lily‘s heart skip.
