Chapter 150 She’s Destiny
Marcelle was taken aback by the sudden comment from Alex.
At this point, this ice beauty should've been angry and slapped Alex away, but such wasn't the case.
Marcelle was really dumbfounded and stared at Alex for a good few seconds right in front of the elevator.
It was only when the elevator door chimed open did she come back to her senses.
The icy expression on her face softened up and looking right into Alex's eyes, she asked, "How did you come to this conclusion?"
Alex smiled widely as he heard that question. If previously he had even the slightest bit of doubt, now it was all gone.
What was left was nothing but complete assurance that this was his wife!
Alex walked close to Marcelle and wrapped his arms around her waist. He lifted her up and spun around, making the whole office look at them.
The employees were greatly surprised when they saw their ice cold chief be lifted in such a manner. Everyone sneakily glanced at the two and tried to pretend that they weren't watching.
This wasn't the proper place to do such things and have a talk, thus Marcelle used some of her Blessed powers and got free from Alex's hold.
Without saying a word, she held his hand and took him right into her office.
As the door slammed shut, Marcelle pushed Alex at the wall and putting her hands beside him, looked straight into his eyes and asked, "How did you guess, darling?"
There was no point hiding anymore. Her husband had guessed it correctly and there was no more reason to play pretend.
Marcelle was indeed the last wife whom Alex had to find. The rest had appeared on their own and for some reason, Marcelle wasn't included, so she was just left alone.
But, with everyone being present and with only her being left, it turned out to be pretty easy to find her.
Alex smiled at Marcelle's question and wrapped his arms around her waist. He kissed her forehead, which Marcelle didn't resist or avoid, and said, "How can I not find my own wife?"
Marcelle scrunched her nose at this reply. She pinched Alex's abdomen and said, "I really want to know. Don't keep me in suspense like this."
Alex chuckled and then stated the things that had transpired.
Marcelle, at first, simply nodded, but then by the end, her brows were knitted and a frown was on her face.
When Alex finished, a vein popped on her forehead and she couldn't help but comment, "Those bitches…"
This was a natural response. Her sisters… they had truly done something without even notifying her. This was so annoying and spiteful that Marcelle really just wished to beat those guys up.
Sadly, Marcelle wasn't the eldest in the group to do such a thing. Though, she was still high up and could actually go beat up some of the younger girls like Ava and Lumina if she wished to.
Alex had a hearty chuckle at Marcelle's reaction and it just confirmed the fact of her being his wife once again.
Marcelle, after a few seconds of pure annoyance, finally sighed and shook her head.
"I guess it was Destiny's destiny to suffer through such a thing."
Marcelle made a self-deprecating joke, but Alex didn't catch it and was instead surprised to find out that his wife was no one else but Destiny herself.
He was told beforehand that she was Destiny, but now with her being in his arms and him feeling her, it was a totally different feeling.
This being right in front… This cute being… She was what gave everybody in the universe a path to walk on.
Be it a simple rock or a complex sentient being, they all had a set destiny in which their life would move towards.
It was so fascinating to know that if Marcelle didn't exist, then so won't the destinies of everyone and everything.
Marcelle played such a crucial role and yet, she seemed like such a simple and gleeful girl when in Alex's embrace.
Nobody could even guess that she was the one controlling everything.
Of course, all of the wives were special, but this was just one of the amazing qualities of Marcelle that Alex was currently appreciating.
Having found his wife at last, Alex gave her lots of kisses and spent some alone time with her.
The two chatted together and during their talks, Alex realized that it was indeed in character for his wife to be cold.
Her icy expressions weren't just for show. She was actually cold in general, but when with her loved ones like Alex, she would open up and show her warm side.
A few things about Marcelle Alex learnt in the short conversation were that firstly, she loved some alone time, free from all work. But that was really rare for her to get and she would be busy at all times.
Secondly, she loved Alex to no end. During their conversation, she held his hand and continuously massaged it gently. She would also place her head on his shoulders while she stopped speaking and was a good listener.
There were far too many smaller things that Alex learnt and he couldn't help but find them cute.
Once their conversation was over, it was time to go back to work.
Alex stated to Marcelle that he was here for some urgent work.
Marcelle asked what it was and Alex answered about it being something related to her mother.
Marcelle didn't need to be told more about this as she had a general idea. Instead of going along with Alex, she merely gave him a few helpful tips and asked him to go see her mother, then come back soon.
The tips made no sense to Alex at this stage, but he kept them in mind and went to see Lucielle.
While on his way, he suddenly realized that… He forgot to mention his relationship with Lucielle to Marcelle…
What would happen if Marcelle were to know Alex was dating her mother too? Well, things were definitely going to get complicated, but nothing could be done now.
Alex was not going to leave Lucielle alone. She had taken great care of him when he was at his lowest in the second regression turn and she had always been a great support.
Such a fine woman was really difficult to find and in no way would he leave her or compromise her with any other thing.
Lucielle needed to be cherished and how Marcelle would react to this news was something Alex didn't know of.
Whatever the case be, he was ready to handle things if need arose.
Walking to Lucielle's office, as Alex entered in, he saw her sitting and working on some papers.
"Alex?" Asked Lucielle as she looked at him.
Alex smiled and walking up to her, hugged her and then kissed her forehead as if it was all normal.
Lucielle was surprised by this sudden gesture since they hadn't been so intimate before, but it was a welcoming gesture and she didn't really hate it.
"What's gotten to you?" Lucielle raised an eyebrow and asked with a happy smile.
Alex sat down on the chair opposite to her and asked, "Is something wrong with me?"
Lucielle shook her head. "Nothing's wrong, you just seem a bit… playful, today."
Alex chuckled. "I see. In any case, time is of essence and I'm here for some urgent work. Things have gotten delayed slightly, so let's wrap things up and get going."
Lucielle had not the slightest of clue as to what Alex had just mentioned, but nodded her head nonetheless and rolled with it.
"Right, so…"
Alex went straight to the point.
The reason Alex was here was to talk to Lucielle about the Thirteenth Floor. It was an important property, but it was useless to them all.
The only person that could benefit off of it was China's Chen Yifan and this property should go to him.
However, he needed to be on their side first. He needed to be trustworthy and he had to be somewhat loyal as well.
Chen Yifan had great potential and it should be harnessed as soon as possible.
Alex was here to discuss things regarding Chin Yifan himself. Lucielle knew a lot about world politics and also had connections to have a background check be done on someone.
Chen Yifan was still young and not that unguarded. Lucielle should thus have some information on him and Alex was here to get them, while also hoping to spend some time with her while conversing.
