The next day, he went to work after he woke up. That was the pace of his recent life.
He felt tired of it.
Marvin couldn’t help but wonder, “Hasn’t the news reached her? Why hasn’t she come to stop me from drinking?”
Back then, Alena had already become a surgeon.
Due
to her strong interest in herbal medicine, she learned from the experts in her hospital.
Later, she helped Marvin improve his health with herbal cuisine, and the precondition was that he wouldn’t drink wine again.
Alena would get mad when she found Marvin drunk. Even so, she still prepared the hangover relief for him and coaxed him to take it.
Without the special treatment from Alena, Marvin recently felt a dull pain in his stomach.
Therefore, he called his family doctor over.
After the checkup, the family doctor left Marvin a pile of medicines and told the latter not to drink wine again.
Fretted, Marvin drove the family doctor away.
Without hesitation, the family doctor hurried away with his medical kit.
He didn’t patiently coax Marvin as Alena did.
Later, Marvin received a video from his friend.
“Marvin, the woman in this video looks a bit similar to your wife.”
Marvin quickly clicked on the video.
In the video, Alena strived for a chance to cure Jerome but got driven away by the bodyguards.
Via the video, Marvin found that Alena in the white coat had her hair cut short.
Moreover, she appeared fearless before those bodyguards.
All in all, she wasn’t dejected by the divorce.
Besides, Marvin found Alena more vibrant than before.
This discovery irritated Marvin.
Then, he spotted a male figure in the video.
He couldn’t see the face of that figure clearly, but he was impressed by the distinct aura of that figure.
He thought, “Good for you, Alena!
“You already found yourself a boyfriend within such a short time!
“Doesn’t it make your previous vows hilarious?”
Gradually, his imagination ran wild.
He even pictured how Alena flattered and flirted with other men.
He got infuriated by his own imagination.

“I haven’t signed the divorce agreement yet, so she is cheating on me, “Marvin thought indignantly, It took him quite a long time to perceive his overreactions to the video.
He rubbed the space between his eyebrows.
Soon, he found the reason for his rage.
Legally speaking, Alena was still Mrs. Harrington.
As Mrs. Harrington, she shouldn’t cross the line.
Marvin didn’t want to share his wife with other men even if he already set his mind on their divorce.
It was unacceptable for him to become

“How did you get the video?”
This question shocked Marvin’s friend.
“Marvin, are you saying that the woman in the video is
your wife?”
Marvin didn’t answer this question, but his face darkened.
His friend couldn’t see his long face, so his friend said enthusiastically, “She made her name. She saved a lot of people, and many are pleading for her help.”
Hearing this, Marvin sneered.

“She doesn’t need the bubble reputation.
“If she wants something to boast
boast about, what is better than the title of Mrs. Harrington?”
Marvin had once suggested that he would give Alena a wedding if she gave up her job and stayed at home as a housewife.
However, Alena refused to quit her job.
Marvin thought, “She is famous now, but so what?
“The Harrington family can ruin her career with just one call.”
“Marvin, many people are wounded here. Should I get a protective order? Wait, no. I want to go home. Just arrange a flight for me.”
Then, something came to Marvin’s mind.
“Are you abroad?”
“Yeah, the battlefield. I came here for an interview, and it is in turmoil now. I can’t stay here any longer.”
Marvin said through his gritted teeth, “So, she went abroad!”
His friend choked on such a conclusion. “Marvin, focus, please. I am in danger, so help me go home.”
After a pause, his friend finally felt that something was wrong.
“It is weird. Alena follows you everywhere, SO how could she leave home without you?
“Did you two have a big fight? Are you two going to divorce?”
Marvin gripped his phone. “Is it dangerous there?”
“Of course, I will get wounded or killed at any minute.”
“Give me your address,” Marvin commanded.
Without a question, his friend sent an address over.

Instantly, Marvin decided to go abroad.
However, he stopped his tracks at the doorway, and his expression was grim. He thought, “Alena deliberately went abroad to make me worry about her.
“Her trick will succeed if I go abroad to find her now.
“When she is in danger and has nobody to turn to, she

will plead me for help.”
“I will find a way to ensure your safety. In return, keep an eye on her, and don’t let her get hurt.”
Marvin’s friend instantly saw the light. “You two did have a big fight. Okay, fine, alright. Because I need your help, I will watch over her for your sake.
“Marvin, aren’t you going to make an apology?”
“Apology? That is her job!”
“Alas, only she can put up with you.”
It was a sleepless night for Alena.
Those cruel scenes from the battlefield popped up in her dreams.
The sun was high in the sky when Alena woke up.
Braylen was playing with toys on a small stool by Alena’s bed.
He seemed to be having a good time.
Upon hearing Alena’s voice, Braylen looked over and said, “Ally, Kolton is still sleeping. He must have done something bad. Shame on him.”
Hearing this, Alena temporarily stopped stretching.
She flashed back to her glimpse of Kolton’s waist last night.
Her nose almost bled.
“What do you know, kid, thin as a string bean?”
“I am not a string bean.” After a pause, Braylen argued, “I know everything!”
He then sighed and sounded worried.
Alena was surprised. “Is something on your mind, kid?”
After a nod, Braylen said with embarrassment, “Kolton is too ugly. I used his photo to help him find a wife, and no women showed interest in him.”
Alena laughed heartily as she imagined that the aloof Kolton went on a blind date arranged by his nephew.
“Did it ever occur to you that they didn’t dare to?”
“Do you mean they didn’t dare to be my aunt–in–law?”
Alena felt speechless. “Perhaps because they didn’t want to die yet.”
Braylen became worried again.
However, he soon looked up at Alena and said, “You can be my aunt–in–law because you are not afraid of Kolton.”
