Chapter 25


    Alita stopped in her tracks, calmly turned around, and said, “Is this your first time acting like this in


    front of me? I’m not into arguing, not into feeling down, and definitely not into shedding tears.” She


    smiled gracefully. “So, enjoy your coffee, Mr. Lewis.”


    He could hurt her, but she wouldn’t let herself look so pathetic. She’d rather silently bear all the pain


    on her own.


    Jaydon, infuriated by her nonchnt attitude, was boiling with rage. “Hold on.”


    Alita, about to leave, stopped once again, turned around patiently, and asked, “Anything else, Mr.


    Lewis?”


    “Alita, from now on, you stand there until I say you can leave. Got it?” Jaydon said coldly


    “Yeah, Mr. Lewis,” Alita calmly responded.


    ‘Unmoved, huh? Well, Alita, I’ve got plenty of things that can get a reaction out of you. I don’t


    believe you’re totally stone–cold, Jaydon thought.


    “Go, tidy up my lounge, wash the clothes I changed out of, and make the bed. Oh, by the way, the


    bedsheets got dirtyst night. Wash those too. And remember, handwash them,” Jaydon said with a


    sinister smile.


    Alita’s breath caught, something blocking her throat. “Sure thing. Mr Lewis I’ll do it right away


    A nauseating smell pervaded the entire room when she entered. So, Jaydon left me alone at home


    last night


    while he was here with Cecilia, she thought.


    Standing by the bed, she could even picture what they might have donest night. She took a deep


    breath, and her heart suddenly ached like a knife cutting through. She couldn’t even stand steadily


    ‘However strong you are, Alita, you have to admit you’re a loser. You’ll never find happiness Why do


    you choose


    to live like this?‘ she said inwardly.


    She didn’t know how she managed to tidy up the room, only that after everything was done, her


    mind was in


    chaos.


    “Everything’s done,” she reported softly to Jaydon, then walked out nkly.


    “So fast? You must have cut corners. Hey, I’m talking to you, Alita. What’s with this attitude? Stop


    right there,e back, do you hear me?” Jaydon shouted, mming the table.


    Alita ignored him and returned to her workspace. As soon as she touched the sofa, she fainted.


    The phone on the office desk rang incessantly. It was Jaydon’s call.


    ‘Damn, she even ignores the phone. Quite audacious, Jaydon thought. He mmed down the


    phone, stood up, and walked out of the office. The receptionist secretary on the side quickly stood


    up. “Mr. Lewis”

    “Did Alita go back to her office?” Jaydon asked with a cold expression.


    The secretary nodded hurriedly. “Yes, I saw her go in.”


    Jaydon headed to Alita’s office, pushing the door open with a “ng.” He was about to shout when


    he saw Alital lying sideways on the sofa, and his heart tightened.


    Closing the door behind him, he walked over. “Hey, don’t y dead. Is cleaning the room really that


    exhausting? Open your eyes, stop pretending.”


    He was so loud that even if Alita had lost consciousness, it still forced her to wake up. When she


    saw Jaydon, a bitter feeling surged within her.
