An Ice Queen for sale (Alice)

Chapter 155 Another argument

Π

She looked at me and shook her head. She walked to the fridge and took n heer out of it, which we just bought, and as her hands were full, she closed the fridge door with her shoulder.

"I took it from the fridge. It's cold." She gave it to me with a smile. "I'll be ready soon."

I had a broad smile on my face. 1 kissed her on her lips, then I turned around and went to my new living room.

After I made myself comfortable, I sipped my beer, and even though I enjoyed observing every corner of the new house, I felt bored, so I stood up, and f thought I would check on Alice in the kitchen. When I got closer to the kitchen, I heard her talking to someone. I didn't want to listen secretly to the conversation, but Delearly heard what she said.

Surely, she talked to Riccardo, and he disagreed on Alice moved out of her flat. Alice told him he didn't need to worry, but obviously he didn't calmi down. Finally, Alice told him she would talk to him later, as she saw me at the door. She hung up, and she looked at me "Have you heard that all?"

""No, only a little."

She lowered her head. I walked closer,

then 1 h

I held her waist.

""He doesn't want me to move out of my flat."

I shrugged my shoulders,

"He doesn't own you."

She looked at me.

"No, but he loves me. And he just wants to make sure okay. And let's be honest, I don't make it easy for him to keep me safe."

"Alice, you are safe with me."

She looked at me, and for a reason, her facial expression was weird. The first thing that was on my mind was that night, when she left me, and when she disappeared. That made me angry.

"If you feel otherwise, you don't have to stay here with me, of course." I put the bottle down, not gently at all.

She sighed and looked at the ground before she moved her gaze on me.

"Gideon, please don't start this."

"What? Now that you have a wealthy and influential father, I don't have authority at all?"

"What authority?" She snapped. "Gideon, are you serious? I'm your lover, your partner, not submissive at all. If you want someone to obey you, then choose someone else."

Then she threw her apron on the kitchen desk, and she walked out. I was still angry, but while I closed my eyes, I just realised what I had done. She was about to leave. Again.

"Fuck." I said, and I ran after her as fast as I could.

I just caught her next to her car. I held her waist from behind and I kept her tight

"I'm sorry, Alice. I don't know what happened to me. Please don't leave."

She didn't answer me, but I felt she breathed faster. I held her tighter.

"Alice, please. I just lost my mind a little. It won't happen again. I promise. Just please don't leave me."

While I was literally begging her, I also wondered what I became, I was so into this young woman, my feelings made me beg, which I never did before. She was the first woman in my life who I begged to and I felt like I wouldn't survive a day without her. Chapter 155 Another argument

"Why do you do this to me?" I heard her voice, which tone made it obvious she was crying. Again. Because of me.

I took a deep breath. I wanted to be honest with her, even if it was so fucking hard.

"Alice, I know I failed. And

and you'll never know how much I'm sorry, but

I'm sorry, but you changed a lot. You have Riccardo, and I hate you put him first."

She took a deep breath this time.

"Gideon, he is my fa

father. And he's already done more for me than I ever hoped if I had a father."

"But you don't trust me as much as you trust him. I want you to live with me here, and you would leave me because he said so."

She shook her head and broke free from my embrace. She turned around and looked at me. I was right. Her eyes were teary.

"I would never leave you unless you give me a reason to do so. And you can't blame me for listening to my father. Even though I got to know him recently, I feel like 1 love him as well. I don't want to choose between you and him. I trust him just as much as I trust you and you can't expect me to ignore him, just because you can't accept the fact you aren't the only important people in my life."

I swallowed and lowered my head. She was right. I have always bProperty © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

been selfish, and I wanted her to be mine only. I looked at her.

"Just please give e me a little time. I just need a little time to work on it and it will change."

She looked away, and I saw she was about to cry again. I wiped her tears with my thumb and I held her into my embrace. She didn't refuse me.

"Please stay here with me." I whispered..

She leaned on my chest, which made me feel better. I used the opportunity, and I led her back into the house. We sat down in the living room a little until she calmed down completely, then we went back into the kitchen. I helped her to finish and finally we sat down to eat. Our minor argument killed both of our moods. I was still angry, but I tried to tell myself to remain quiet, and to accept she's got a family as well.

We watched a movie. Riccardo called her again, and she picked up the phone, but this time she went out to talk to him. I wanted to know what they were talking about, but I.
