Chapter 758 Want to Always Be by Her Side

Alex sits down all spaced out the moment he gets home.

Miya wants to comfort him but she knows that she there is nothing that she can do right now. She also
doesn’t know what’s the right thing to do to make Alex relax and be less tense. What’s most important
right now is to figure out what to do about Aaron’s funeral.

But, are they really not letting Aileen know about any of this? If she knows, she will be hiding
somewhere in a corner, crying her heart out.

Alex is rubbing his temple with his hands the whole time, he looks very upset. Miya can feel how
agonizing it is just standing there looking at him, as his body is sending out intense distress signals.

Miya cannot bear the sight of seeing Alex like that. She rushes up to him and hugs him from behind,
“Don’t be like that. I know you are in tremendous pain, but there is still plenty of stuff that we need to
take care off. You cannot collapse here.”

Alex turns around after listening to her, he hugs her back in an instant. He holds her as tight as he can
as if he is getting some relief from her hugs.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t make you worry about me. Don’t worry, I was just thinking about some stuff. I
won’t do anything stupid.” Alex gently touches Miya’s forehead with his hand.

Miya suddenly realizes that Alex’s hand is bleeding. The scene of him hitting the wall out of anger
flashed through her mind, he hurt his hand just now.

Miya grabs Alex’s hand nervously, “Your hand is hurt.”

How can she forget something like that?

“I’ll go get the first aid kit to patch up your wound.”



Alex yanks her back to him forcefully as she tries to stand up. She hears him saying pleadingly.

“Don’t move. Just stay next to me quietly like this.” His baritone voice is charming, but it also sounds a
bit sorrowful.

“But your wound…” Alex hugs her forcefully as Miya tries to talk as if he is trying to tell her with his
body, that the only thing he needs right now is for her to hug him back. He can only lessen his agony
through hugging her.

Miya finally understands that Alex just wants her hug and nothing else at this moment. If hugging can
take his pain away, she is willing to let him hug her forever. She decides to put off the idea of treating
his wound for the time being.

She really cannot bear the sight of seeing him in agony. And thus, she hugs him back, slowly and
tightly.

After a very long time, Alex finally let go of her hand. She gets the first aid kit, make some preparations
and treats his wound carefully.

His fist is hurt quite badly, Miya feels bad just looking at it. She feels so sorry that tears start to well up
in her eyes.

“Don’t torture yourself like this ever again. You still need to look after me and the children, I won’t let
you get hurt again, nobody can harm a hair on your head ever again. Do you understand?” Miya orders
Alex in an overbearing tone.

Alex’s mood is instantly lifted after hearing what Miya says. He feels warm in his heart and feels happy,
he thinks that the Miya right now is indescribably cute.



His sorrow and agony can be healed without any medication as long as she stays by his side. He must
cherish her and make her stay with him forever.

“Miya, promise me that you wouldn’t ever leave me no matter what happened.”

Miya is still treating Alex’s wound when he suddenly pulls her towards him. He hugs her tightly in his
arms.

Losing Aaron is a huge blow on Alex. He becomes really unsettled and worried about personal gains
and losses as if he falls out of grace. Alex seems like a kid right now, it worries Miya.

As this big child doesn’t know how to protect himself at all.

“You weren’t listening to me just now. If you want me to stay by your side, then you have to take good
care of yourself. Don’t let yourself get hurt. Who is going to take care of me and protect me if you got
hurt?” Miya can only talk to him in such a tone, hoping that he can understand what she is trying to say.

Alex suddenly smiles, his smile is dazzling, “I will take good care of myself, and I will protect you.”

Miya thinks that Alex is close to having a mental breakdown at this point. She doesn’t want to bother
him too much and decides to give him time to calm down.

“You haven’t eaten anything throughout the day. How about I make you some food right now?” Miya
suddenly realizes that Alex hasn’t eaten anything for the whole day. It’s time for her to go make him
some food.

“But I just want to hug you right now. Stay by my side and that’s more than enough for me. I don’t need
to eat.”



Miya feels that maybe Alex has calmed down a bit after hearing what he says, given the fact that he
still can joke around with her right now. Maybe she is worrying too much.

“Alright, stop acting so spoilt. I’m going to make you something to eat. You must eat something,
otherwise, I’ll be troubled if I need to look after you.” She doesn’t want to take of him as a patient.

Alex squints his eyes, “You are calling me a patient. Are you tired of me already?”

“Yeah, you were so depressed recently. I was waiting patiently for you to torment me again like you
always do. We also promised to enjoy each other’s company from now on.” Miya says teasingly to
divert his attention.

She really hopes that he can be happy again. Time will heal all wounds and the sadness he is
experiencing now will become a part of him. She hopes that their life can be better in the future.

The skilful Miya brings out a bowl of hot congee cooked with pork belly and century egg in no time. The
food smells really good, but Alex doesn’t want to eat it unless she feeds him. He is acting all spoiled.

There is nothing that Miya can do. She feeds him one spoonful after another, slowly and dearly.

Alex is on cloud nine and enjoying every single moment of it.
