The two were smiling sweetly in the photo, hugging each other as if they were inseparable as if nothing could come between them.
It was a good feeling. He belonged to her, and she to him. Nobody could stand in their way because they were each other's person.
Not long after, he heard footsteps coming down the stairs. When Alexander looked up, he noticed a figure on the stairs standing in an odd
outfit.
She wore a large hooded jacket, baggy pants, and a pair of sunglasses that covered half her face. She even wore a mask.
Although it was hard for anyone to identify her with such a cover-up, it made her even more eye-catching. If she was covered up like this on
a hot day, wouldn't people think she was a criminal?
"Are you sure you want to go out like this?" Alexander asked.
"Yeah. I've seen celebrities do this when they want to avoid the paparazzi!" Lily pulled up the zipper,

Although it was hot, she had spent a long time staring at herself in the mirror, and she realized she was
unrecognizable. There was no way anyone would know who she was. That way, she could shop with
Alexander peacefully.
Alexander shook his head but said nothing else. He did not want to rain on her parade as long as she
was happy.
However...
Lily seemed to have forgotten one thing. Although she had recently been in the spotlight, with reporters
swarming around her for an interview, Alexander would become the main attraction when he stood next
to her.
Alexander had always been a stunning figure. If he and Lily were seen walking around the mall
together, it would be the biggest scandal of all time.
"Let's go!" She said it enthusiastically as she stepped forward to take his arm.
The corners of his lips curled when he looked at his wife. She was adorable!
"What?!"
On the Russell Estate, Margaret's howl could be heard. "Are you saying that woman didn't even let you
in?!’
"Exactly!" Celine had a sullen face with reddened eyes as she clutched a handkerchief in one hand. "I
even brought a lot of gifts with me. Alex is still my nephew, no matter what. When I heard he was
getting married, I just wanted to congratulate them as his aunt.
Also, that woman hasn't been very popular, hasn't she? I heard that she's keen on being the new president of the Perfumers' Society as
well."

"Yeah, but that's not the point. I could hear voices from inside when I was there. Also, if she was sick, why didn't the servant tell me right
away? Why did she have to check with her before coming out to tell me? I've been around long enough to know that she obviously doesn't
want to meet me."
Celine held onto the armrest of the chair that Margaret was sitting on and continued, "Mom, although it's no big deal, I'm just worried that this
woman has such a temperament before she's even married into the family. She might be as hardheaded as Alex's mother in the future."
Margaret's face immediately dropped at the mention of Alexander’s mother, and she frowned. "I told you not to mention that woman!"
"Right. I'm sorry, Mom, it slipped my mind. Still, don't get too worked up just yet as it might just be a miscommunication on my end. Maybe
she's really sick. Forget it. I'll visit them another day. I might’ve just visited them at the wrong time."
"What do you mean by that?! You're an elder. No matter how sick she is, it's basic etiquette for her to come and greet you!" Margaret
snorted. She was very unhappy. "I didn't expect Mr. Lodge to raise such an ill-mannered granddaughter."
