淑女的欲望

When Xander was paying the bill at the counter, someone approached him.

"Xander Riley, is that you?" Greeting the middle-aged man from behind.

Xander turned his head in that direction. He was surprised to see a middle-aged man walking towards him with a gentle smile on his face that looked excited.

\'What a coincidence, huh!\' Xander muttered.

Behind the middle-aged man, a tall, slender woman with long black hair followed him.

The woman looked shocked by what she saw, \'Oh my God!! B-Brother Xander...\' She trembled in shock as she met Xander in a place she had never expected.

"Can\'t believe I saw you in this small town. What are you doing here, Xander?" The middle-aged man asked again, after seeing Xander frowning without saying a word as if he was surprised to see them.

"Mr. Harris! Wait a minute..." Xander greeted him and then continued to pay the bill. After he settled, he turned to look at the man again. "I\'m having lunch here. What else?"

"Hahaha..." The middle-aged man was amused to hear Xander calling him. This kid is still the same, huh? "...Xander, call me Uncle Paul! We are family, after all. And don\'t treat me like a stranger, will you?" He said while standing in front of Xander.

Before Xander could say anything, the woman chimed in.

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom "B-Brother Xander... it\'s been a while. How are you?" The woman finally greeted Xander after she could calm her beating heart. After so many months, she was finally able to meet him again. It feels like she just received a jackpot! She felt so happy until her heartbeat rumbled like war drums.

Xander glanced at the woman expressionlessly. He said, "Hello, Miss. Harris, I\'m fine. Thanks for asking!"

"Brother Xander, why do you call me that? Please, call me Ella, yeah? We\'re not having a formal meeting here..." The woman\'s mouth twitched. Somehow, she felt sad inside. This man didn\'t give her the slightest warmth after what happened to them in the past.

She really wished she could scold him, but how could she do that to the man she loved?

She just swallowed her anger while maintaining a loving smile at him.

"Sorry! I\'m used to it! And you can also get used to calling me Mr. Riley!" Xander snorted coldly, quite satisfied with how he handled this unexpected situation.

The girl\'s face immediately turned red with anger at being treated like this by Xander. However, she was helpless in front of him.

Ella Harris endured the insult and continued to act normally. "...Brother, what are you doing here? Do you have a business? Did you come alone?" She ask so many questions but, of course, he still ignored her.

Xander looked at Paul Harris before saying in a calm tone, "Uncle, I\'m done here! I have to go now..."

"Oh, you\'ve eaten! I was just about to ask you to join us..." Paul Harris was disappointed to see that Xander couldn\'t join them.  He had tried to meet Xander a few times, but it wasn\'t easy to meet him in person, even though their families had close ties.

"Y-Yes, Xander... Please join us! It\'s been a long time since we had lunch together..." The woman approached Xander and tried tugging his sleeves to make him look at her.

Xander frowned and avoided her with an expression that was clearly displeased with her attitude.

Ella clenched her fist up, and anger almost enveloped her again. She could only vent her anger inside her head, \'Xander Riley! You are such a heartless man!!\'

"No, thanks, Uncle! I\'ve finished eating and have some business to take care of...so I got to go," Xander refused gently.

At the same time, the corner of his eyes caught a woman\'s figure, instantly making his displeasing feelings disappear. His smile blooms as he turns his gaze on her.

"...Are you done?" His gentle tone was enough to make Ella and Paul gasp in surprise. They turn in a specific direction and are surprised to see a beautiful woman walking towards them, and she is seen smiling at Xander.

\'Who is this woman??\' Ella couldn\'t help but be curious to see a woman who could make Xander smile like spring and speak gently. She never imagined witnessing this rare side of him.

"Who is this woman, Xander?" Paul, who was the first to regain from his shock, asked. He looked at Xander with a big question mark flashing across his eyes.

"She\'s my woman!" Xander said and took Scarlett\'s hand. He immediately said goodbye to Paul Harris and left while holding hands with Scarlett — Paul and Ella froze.

Xander\'s words were like a blow to Ella and Paul\'s heads. They became speechless!

After some time...

"Fa-father, Brother Xander already has a girlfriend!? W-Why I never heard about it?" Ella stammered while her eyes were still on Xander and the goddesses like a woman who held his arms. She felt so angry and jealous at this moment.

"...I also do not know!" said Paul Harris.

Ella could feel her wild heartbeat, watching them leave.

She looked at her father with mixed emotions. She said, "Father, please do something! Ask grandpa to talk to Grandpa Riley!" She whimpered, almost crying, begging her father.

"How could Brother Xander now have a girlfriend? I can\'t accept it! Whatever it takes, I want brother Xander to become my husband!! After all, he is my fiancé!!" Knowing Xander had a woman has been intensely bugging her, and it felt too much for her heart and mind.

Paul Harris could only take a deep breath in response to his daughter\'s words. He was helpless and powerless when faced with Xander Riley.  However, he also felt sorry for his daughter. Because Xander\'s attitude in breaking up their engagement deeply hurt his daughter. Until today, she is still determined to pursue Xander. She still believes one day, Xander will fall for her.

But seeing a beautiful woman like a goddess standing by Xander\'s side is significant evidence that there is no longer hope for his daughter. She no longer has the chance to stand by Xander\'s side.

\'That beautiful woman, who is she!?\' Suddenly an idea popped up in Paul\'s mind. \'Ella! You still have hope!!\' As he looked at his daughter, a cold smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his lips.
