Tempting the Billionaire and His Heir

CHAPTER 126

Alexa wakes up early in the morning, feeling anxious and restless. She knows what she needs to do, but the thought of it scares her. She prepares Nolan’s breakfast and takes it to his room, but this time, she doesn’t just knock on the door and leave it outside. She gathers her courage and enters the room, hoping to see some progress in Nolan’s condition.

To her disappointment, Nolan is lying in bed, in the same position he has been in for weeks. He doesn’t acknowledge her presence, and Alexa feels a pang of sadness in her chest. She knows she can’t give up on him, but she also knows she can’t force him to get better.

Days pass, and Alexa continues to bring Nolan his meals and check up on him. She notices that his room is becoming more and more cluttered, and the smell of the room is becoming unbearable. It’s clear that Nolan has given up on himself and has no intention of getting better.

Finally, after a month of waiting, Alexa decides she can’t take it anymore. She enters Nolan’s room and forcefully pulls him up from the bed. He resists, but Alexa is persistent. She argues that she knows how hard it is to lose someone you love, but it’s much harder to watch the one last person she cares for lose themselves.

Nolan finally complies with her demand but complains that he just wants to be left alone. Alexa ignores his complaints and insists that he needs to get out of his room, take a shower, and eat a proper meal. Nolan grudgingly agrees, and Alexa helps him to the bathroom.

It takes a while, but Nolan finally emerges from the bathroom, looking slightly more presentable. Alexa guides him to the dining room, where she has prepared a healthy breakfast for him. She sits with him, encouraging him to eat, and they make small talk.

Alexa spent weeks looking for Cody, but he was nowhere to be found. She was worried sick about Nolan, who was still in bed, barely eating or drinking anything. Alexa would leave him breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but she had to force him to eat, which made him angry every time.

Alexa’s days consisted of going out to search for Cody and coming back to the mansion to take care of Nolan. She barely had time to rest or take care of herself. It was taking a toll on her, but she couldn’t give up on Nolan.

One day, as she was force-feeding Nolan, she noticed that he was slowly coming back to his physical self. His once sunken cheeks were slowly filling up, and he was gaining some color back in his face. However, his once muscled arms were now soft to the touch, and he smelled like he didn’t shower for months.

Alexa knew that Nolan was still grieving, but she couldn’t help but feel a little bit frustrated. She wanted to shake him and tell him that he needed to take care of himself, but she knew that he wouldn’t listen.

Days turned into weeks, and Alexa was starting to lose hope that she would ever find Cody. She was so focused on taking care of Nolan that she barely had time to think about anything else.

One day, as she was coming back from the grocery store, she was shocked to see Kathy walking inside the mansion. Kathy was Anthony’s sister, and Alexa had only met her a few times. She was surprised that Kathy would come to the mansion without any prior notice.

Alexa quickly put away the groceries and walked towards the living room where Kathy was waiting. Kathy was sitting on the couch, sipping a cup of tea, and looking around the room.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“Hello, Alexa,” Kathy said as she noticed Alexa walking towards her. “I hope I’m not intruding.”

Alexa was caught off guard. She wasn’t expecting Kathy to come to the mansion, especially since she knew that Nolan was still grieving.

As Kathy entered the mansion, Alexa couldn’t help but notice her outfit. She was wearing a long white flowy dress that seemed to be made of a light and airy fabric, perfect for the warm summer day. The dress hugged her curves in all the right places, highlighting her slim waist and accentuating her ample bosom.

The dress had a deep V-neckline that showed off just the right amount of cleavage, leaving Alexa feeling slightly envious. The straps of the dress were thin and delicate, adding to the overall feminine vibe of the outfit. The dress flowed down to her ankles, swishing with each step she took.

As Alexa’s eyes traveled down, she noticed that Kathy was wearing a pair of strappy sandals that were a few shades darker than the dress. The sandals had high heels, making Kathy appear even taller than she already was. The pedicure on her toes was a bright red, adding a pop of color to the otherwise white ensemble.

Kathy’s long blonde hair was styled in soft waves that cascaded down her back. Her makeup was minimal, with just a touch of pink lipstick and some mascara to highlight her bright blue eyes. She carried a small beige purse that matched her sandals and seemed to hold just the essentials.

“No, not at all,” Alexa replied, trying to keep her composure. “Is there anything I can help you with?”

Kathy smiled at her, and Alexa noticed that she looked different from the last time she saw her. She looked more relaxed and carefree, which was strange considering the circumstances.

“I’m here to see Nolan,” Kathy said, still smiling. “I heard that he’s been going through a tough time, and I thought I could help.”

Alexa was surprised. She didn’t know that Kathy was close to Nolan, but she didn’t want to question her. She knew that Nolan needed all the support he could get.
