Since their marriage, Alexander had never so much as touched Vivian, let alone slept with her. This drove Vivian to the brink of madness.

Before, he was so infatuated with her, so why did he change so drastically after marriage?

Men really are despicable!

They never cherish what they have!

With these thoughts, Vivian got out of bed and, in a huff, went out to see Alexander already arranging pillows on the sofa, apparently planning to sleep there.

"Alexander!"

Vivian's voice was low and filled with anger. "What is this about? You never touch me since our marriage. Why did you marry me then?"

After throwing the last extra pillow on the single-seater sofa, Alexander turned and lay down on the couch.

Resting his head on his hand, he gave Vivian a cold, indifferent look.

"Why I married you, don't you know?"

"I...!"

Vivian, her teeth itching with rage, said, "Yes! Even if you really married me just to use the Lesser family as your backing, why did you change so much after marriage?"

"I haven’t changed."

Alexander’s voice was calm. "This is the real me."

The legendary Alexander was known to be promiscuous and a womanizer, especially fond of stars and models.

Even Vivian thought so, or else he wouldn’t have been so entangled with her in the past.

This was also why Vivian was so angry before – knowing Alexander's licentious nature, she couldn't stand him rejecting her after marriage.

Now, hearing Alexander's serious declaration, the anger in her heart suddenly dissipated.

She walked over to him, standing by his side with a mix of emotions in her eyes. "Alexander, then after marrying me, did you cheat..."

"No!"

Alexander cut her off before she could finish.

Vivian's face broke into a smile, then she crouched down and touched his handsome face.

"Since it’s like that, let’s get along well. As long as you treat me well, I will treat you well too."

Alexander grabbed her wandering fingers, irritation flashing in his eyes, "Vivian, you are the heiress of the Lesser family, and I am just an illegitimate child of the the Caine family. I am not worthy of you."

"No!" Vivian shook her head vigorously, misunderstanding his literal meaning. "Alexander, my grandparents and father like you very much. You are worthy of me. Once you become the heir of the the Caine family and I control the Lesser family, both families will be ours! With our combined strength, Charlie and Nancy will be nothing for us to fear about"

Alexander looked at her coldly, his gaze as icy as frost. Suddenly, a mocking smile formed on his lips.

"So, you just see me as a means to get the the Caine family's power and use me against Charlie and Nancy, and that's why you want to be a real husband and wife with me?"

"What else?"

Vivian scoffed, "It's already like this. I can't let Nancy get so close to my father. The Lesser family is mine, and now, only you can help me..."

"I'm sorry."

Alexander's response was firm and decisive, "I can't help you!"

"Alexander! What do you mean!"

Vivian, unable to bear having a marriage likr this, burst out in frustration, "This doesn’t work, that doesn’t work, then why did you marry me? Let’s get divorced!"
