Chapter 45 You’ll Suffer From Indigestion

Alex had dinner with his and Nix's family once he was home.

Everything was normal and there was nothing that Alex found on Nix.

Once dinner was done, Alex and Melissa went on a light walk.

"Do you know, walking after having food is quite beneficial for you?" Alex showed off some medical knowledge.

"Hmm? Really? Why?" Melissa asked with a smile.

Internally she was thinking, 'I made everything... yet I feel so happy to see them unfold these mysteries and tell it to me.'

What Melissa was feeling was something equivalent to a mother cooking a dish for her child and the child loving it and taking interest to know more about the dish.

It could be also understood with an analogy of a master watch expert making a complicated watch movement and the common people taking interest in it and becoming curious to know the intricate and fine detailing being put into such a small case.

Walking neither too fast nor too slow, Alex explained, "when you're walking lightly, your body's rhythm matches your stomach's churning movement and helps in digesting the food better. So... one should always walk at least for five to ten minutes at a normal pace."

Melissa smiled and asked back, "what if it's not a normal pace? What if I decide to just run?"

Alex chuckled and said, "then my dear, you'll suffer with indigestion, and feel like crap."

Melissa chuckled along with Alex and the two conversed some more on random things.

Alex then finally asked, "honey, you said I have more wives, right? And I need to find them?"

"Yes? What of them?" Melissa asked.

Alex didn't run in circles and asked straight, "I am wondering, is Nix my wife too?"

Instead of answering, Melissa smiled and shrugged. "How would I know, babe? You're married to them, not me."

Pah!

Alex spanked Melissa's butt lightly and hugged her from the side, pulling her in his embrace and looking into her eyes.

"You're really of no help when I actually need you, are you?"

Melissa giggled and said, "I don't know about any of those things, but I just wanna say... the spank was so hot... do it again!"

Would Alex not comply with his wife's wishes?

Pah!

"Mhm~"

Of course not!

He was a good husband at the end of the day.

"We're outside, anyone would be able to see us doing lewd things, you know?" Alex said to Melissa.

Melissa held Alex's hands and interlocked her fingers with his.

Walking alone with him, she replied, "then let them see. I am sure you'll be turned on by that, you pervert exhibitionist."

"Damn, the audacity..." Alex commented. "Who was it that asked me to spank a second ago?"

"Who?" Melissa feigned an innocent confused expression.

Alex rolled his eyes and thought of explaining everything to Melissa once they were back home. She has become quite naughty and perverted.

The husband-wife pair's walk came to an end after ten minutes and they went back home.

It was the usual night they spent and in the next morning, Alex did his morning routine once again of combat training and then hitting the gym.

Once he was back from the gym, he saw a big truck waiting outside his house.

It was the delivery of his Urus all the way from New York.

Alex signed the documents and took the car.

His parents and Nix's parents were both happy to see him make it big.

Nix's dad, being an automobile designer from Italy itself, commended Alex for having some good taste.

Alex felt quite good getting such high praises from the man who worked in this industry itself.

It was then time for lunch and Nix suggested going to a famous restaurant in Austin.

She had seen great reviews of it online and it was said that it was a must visit place for tourists.

Alex and Melissa had no problems and they took her to this place in the Urus that just arrived.

Once lunch was over, the three spent some time in a dessert place and it was now time for Alex's gun mastery training.

He said to the two that they could take the car and go home, but Nix said she had some work and would part ways with the two while Melissa said it was fine and she could just take a taxi.

Alex insisted his wife to take the car as he could just take a taxi himself and finally Melissa gave in and drove back home.

Alex called himself a taxi and got inside it to go to the shooting range.

Once the taxi was gone, Nix appeared in its place and taking out her phone, dialed a number and said, "the target is on its way to xxxxx... the coordinates are..."

Finishing giving out information, she took one step ahead but reached a thousand steps forward, right on top of a tall building.

Gazing down at Alex, she said with a sigh, "I am sorry honey, I can't get myself to kill you even as a joke. If these guys finish you, we'll be back living our daily lives in Elysium happily. And if they don't..."

Nix flashed a happy smile and her face then flushed.

"...then I'll be in your care here and we'll do a lot of questionable things, hehe."

***

As Alex was in the taxi, in the rear view mirror and the side mirror, he could see a few suspicious cars and bikes following him.

Knowing exactly what was gonna happen, he looked at the taxi driver, and saw him to be a happy young lad, vibing to music.

Alex felt curious as to how this lad was so happy and he said with a smile, "hey, you seem happy."

"Yes, sir," the boy replied with a smile. "From tomorrow onwards, I am gonna start college."

"Oh? Tell me about it." Alex said and squeezed himself from the middle of the two front seats to get onto the passenger seat in front.

"Huff... what a struggle..." Alex said and stretched himself as he got there.

"You alright, sir?" The boy asked.

[Ding!]

One by one Alex heard things from the system that were music to his ears.

It brought such great news.

Turning to the boy driving the taxi, Alex said, "I am fine, just came in the front to have a conversation with you."

"Haha, that's so nice of you," the boy replied.

Alex then smiled and asked, "by the way, I wanted to ask..."

"Have you seen Tokyo Drift?"
