Bab 551: The Puzzled Guests

"I don't like crowds," Alaric complained as he washed Aleksis' back inside the large marble bathtub in her bathroom. "Can we just run away?"

As a punishment for making them late, Alaric took responsibility for bathing the two of them. Yet Aleksis immediately regretted giving him such work because it turned out that Alaric was deliberately slowing them down.

"Jeez ... you did it on purpose, huh?" she grumbled, turning her head to face Alaric who was now looking at her with his pair of purple eyes that glimmered like a puppy's. For a moment Aleksis was stunned. She had never seen this side of him before.

Gosh ... how could her husband be so adorable, she wondered in amusement. Wasn't Alaric famous for being so cold and indifferent? But in such a short time, Aleksis saw him smile, laugh, and now he was even teasing her by pretending to sulk.

She really liked this new Alaric.
