Chapter 26 "I-I'm full." Lily lowered her head while her cheeks flushed red. “You're probably tired, so let's go home and rest first.
We'll talk about the rest tomorrow.” As if knowing what was bothering Lily, Alexander said, “I'll let Edward know about your request.
Don't worry about it." His words managed to relieve Lily of her worries.
She thought it was great to have someone else understand her and make arrangements to get things done before she even asked.
When the couple got into the car, Alexander asked Lily, “Are you renting the place you're staying at now?” “Yeah.” “Cancel your contract and movein with me," Alexander said and held Lily's hand.
Alexander's actions made Lily's heart skip a beat as she tightened her grip on his hand andlowered her head, appearing to be in her thoughts.
Alexander did not rush her either.
He just looked ahead with her hand in his, waiting patiently for her answer.

Since they were married now and had even slept with each other, they were considered a proper married couple.
It made sense for them to move in together.
Lily nodded.
“Okay.” "Let's move your things over now, shall we?" Alexander was indeed a man of action.
The car soon arrived at Lily's neighborhood as she went upstairs to pack the essentials alone, mostly her clothes.
However, she no longer wanted her bedsheets, blankets, and other miscellaneous items.
Then she placed all her essential documents into a file and called her landlord to cancel her rental contract.
Before she left, she rechecked the room to ensure she did not leave anything behind.
It was only now that she realized she had been alone for a long time.
She thought Nathaniel and herself were starting a business together where they could work toward acommon goal.
However, it turned out it was only her dream, not Nathaniel’s.
Lily stood at the door and took a long look as a sign of farewell to her past.
‘Goodbye, my past.’ Alexander was surprised when he saw that Lily only had one bag.
“That's it?” “l only packed the important items.
The other things don't matter.” It was fortunate that Nathaniel was not around, as Lily was not in the mood to explain things to him.
It was rare for Nathaniel to come over anyway.
On the way home, neither Lily nor Alexander spoke.

The driver drove the car to Imperial Hills, the most expensive neighborhood in the city.
It was a well-known community filled with mansions for the wealthy.
Only the finest architects and interior designers worked on each mansion.
The mansions even came with their own gardens.
Staying in this neighborhood symbolized a person's wealth and status, so the fact that Alexander residedhere did not surprise Lily at all.
However, she did not expect that there would be no maids in his vast mansion.
She also found it convenient after learning that his mansion was fully automated.
"Are you the only one living here?" Lily asked in surprise when she noticed no one else in his mansion.
"It'll be the two of us from today onward,” Alexander said, placing the mansion’s key in Lily’s palm.
