Unaware of how Alice felt about him, Alex walked towards his bedroom where he hoped that Lilia would be.
The situation with Alice had served as a lesson, which is why he had decided to inform Lilia about the artifact and everything as soon as possible.
"Honey?" said Alex, opening the door to the bedroom.
"Yes, dear?" replied Lilia, who was sitting on the bed combing her hair.
Alex walked to his wife's side and gave her a small peck on her cheek before sitting behind her and starting to comb Lilia's hair.
"So much affection," said Lilia before turning her head, narrowing her eyes, and saying with a cautious voice, "What do you want, better yet, what did you do?"
Hearing her, Alex was flabbergasted. Couldn't he show affection to his wife without being suspected?
With a wry smile, he said, "Can't I just show my love to my wife?"
Lilia narrowed her eyes further before smiling warmly and exclaiming happily, "Okay."
'cute.'
Alex combed Lilia's hair, and when he finished, he scooped her up and started making his way to the bed.
"Hey... Put down!" said Lilia, trying to make Alex put her down, although in truth, she actually liked being carried like this.
Arriving at the bed, Alex gently placed her down before sitting in front of her with a serious look.
Seeing his serious expression, Lilia knew that sothing was wrong, so she asked with a tender voice, "What's wrong, Alex?"
"It's about how I managed to reach level 1," Alex began.
"Oh, is it about that? If that's the case, why are you so serious? You should smile instead, you can beco stronger as you've always wanted."
Hearing her, Alex couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead and say, "You're truly the best."
"Haha..."
Alex then repositioned himself and told her, "We really need to talk."
"Okay."
"Well... It all started when Felix and I..." Alex began to tell the story of how he got the artifact.
At first, when he recounted how his friend Felix and he found a multitude of treasures in a cave, Lilia was all smiles as he narrated the events.
However, her mood began to change when he talked about the artifact and the deal he had made with Felix, leaving Felix the fortune and taking only the artifact.
At this point in the story, Lilia was frowning but didn't stop him.
Alex had noticed her change in mood but continued to tell the story. However the more he talked, the paler Lilia's face beca.
He explained that it was precisely to study the artifact that he had literally had no contact with her or anyone else.
At this point in the story, he thought she would make a comnt, but contrary to his expectations, she didn't do anything to stop him. In fact, she didn't speak at all.
Nevertheless, Alex continued, explaining that after his research, with the help of Scarlett, he had managed to activate and rge with the artifact.
Of course, he skipped the fact that he had been poisoned and killed by Felix.
"... And there you have it. You now know the whole story," said Alex, finishing telling Lilia about everything, even about how he needed to sleep with won to beco more powerful.
When he finished talking and glanced at Lilia, he was mortified.
At this point, Lilia's face was as pale as a sheet of paper.
"Hey Lilia, what's happening to you?" said Alex, shaking her but still getting no response from Lilia.
'Don't tell it's because of the fact that I have to sleep with won to beco stronger that's bothering her so much. If that's the case, then I'll just refrain from sleeping with other won.'
One might think that Alex saying he wouldn't sleep with other won was a good joke. After all, hadn't he just cheated on his wife with the maid a mont ago? And even if we don't count Anna, he had been cheating on his wife for years. So, who would take him seriously if he said he wouldn't sleep with other won?
However, Alex was dead serious. It's true he had cheated on Lilia, but that didn't an he didn't love her. No, the love he had for Lilia was stronger than anything.
Plus, he had only started cheating on her during a ti when his life had beco dark. So, he would really stop any extramarital affairs he currently had if Lilia asked him to. It was unfortunate for Anna, but that's how it was.
But the next words that Lilia spoke had nothing to do with any of that.
"The Sin's Ga..."
