My Wives Are Too Overpowered-Chapter 90 Jinxes

As Alex walked inside the house and saw Nix, she couldn't help but sniff in an exaggerated manner.

"An older woman?" Nix said immediately.

'Damn…' Alex didn't know whether to be happy, shocked, or scared with the skills of his wife.

Nix got closer to Alex and made a smug face. "This is the second time you went out today and the second woman. Honey, they are ladies, not Pokémon for you to catch 'em all."

Alex felt slightly embarrassed and said with a light cough, "it was an accident. I had no plans of getting together with another lady, but it just happened naturally."

Nix chuckled and took the bags from Alex's hands. "Right, right. Hopefully the new sister of mine is a wonderful lady and not a big pervert like Mel sis."

Nix wasn't mad about her husband getting a new lady. She was a Goddess, her way of life was much different than mortals.

Alex got more drama from Lucielle than he did with Nix once she found out there was another lady with him. This surprised him, but also amused him. Gods were definitely strange beings.

Nix went upstairs to the young girl and asked Alex to wait for them at the dining table.

She soon came to the dining table with the young girl. The girl was in her pyjamas, properly cleaned up, and she appeared like a noble young lady, ready to go to bed.

As they sat at the dining table and started eating, Nix asked, "so, honey, what have you been up to?"

She was referring to this young girl and then the new lady Alex had just met.

Alex explained the events that happened and this made Nix feel pity for the girl. She patted her head lovingly while she ate and made the girl feel really comfortable.

When Alex finished explaining, Nix sighed. "Life's unfair, but nothing can be done. At least she's in good company now."

She then turned to the young girl and said with a smile, "You didn't tell us your name all this while, by the way."

The girl, who was now in a much better condition, said with slight embarrassment, "Lin."

"Just Lin?" Nix asked.

The girl nodded and said with slight sadness, "I don't know what happened, but as far as I could remember, I woke up near a trash can and there was this pendant. I learned my name from it."

"I see," Nix got to thinking. She then gazed at the pendant and asked, "can I see?"

The young girl hesitated at first, but then nodded her head.

Nix patted her head and held the pendant, glancing at it. Just a few seconds later, a smile appeared on her face.

She then shook her head and turning to her husband, said with the same smile, "this little girl is just a hot box of troubles. Do you still wish to keep her around?"

Lin's face turned sad when she heard that and she shrank in her seat a little. She tried to stop her hands from shaking and focused on the meal at hand. This may very well be the last warm meal she would have. She would probably be back to eating from trash bins.

Lin tried her best to not tear up while eating.

Alex simply chuckled at his wife's question. "Of course. I can't just let a cute helpless girl be out on the streets now, can I?"

Lin's tension eased up. Her tears were gone and she stopped shaking. A small smile crept on her face. She wouldn't be homeless anymore, she felt really happy knowing this.

Nix on the other hand squinted her eyes as she heard that. She slowly, in a comical way, took her phone out and dialed a number. "Halo polis, dis man right here."

"Hey!" Alex got flustered. Only now did he realize his comment seemed very predatory. He was no paedophile!

Nix put the phone down and giggled, watching her husband be so flustered.

She then hugged Lin from the side and said, "don't worry, she's above eighteen for sure."

Alex heaved a sigh of relief— wait a second! Why was he feeling relieved!? Damn Alex!

Shaking his head and throwing away the thoughts in his mind's dustbin, Alex tried to become pure again. He then turned to Lin and observed her.

Lin looked like a normal blonde girl in her late teens. Her petite figure made it evident that she was still growing and hadn't finished puberty. It's no wonder he mistook her for someone young with the way she seemed.

In any case, his intentions were pure when he picked her up, but damn Nixie! She turned things sexual for no apparent reason!

Alex shot a glaring look to his wife that read: 'you are definitely getting punished'.

Nix shot back a smug look at him that read: 'I'll be waiting'.

The perverted husband-wife duo's eye to eye conversation went unnoticed by Lin, but she was wondering what to make of their conversation. It's not like she was very young to not understand what they were hinting at.

Her ears turned red but she didn't show it on her face. This conversation the husband-wife had should be concerning, but Lin could tell that they were joking.

The two also seemed nice to her. The light green-haired lady had washed her up really nicely. Her soft and delicate hands were so soothing. She almost felt herself melt and teared up, knowing at least something in her life had gone right.

She didn't care for more, she didn't ask for more. What she had gotten was enough and thanked these two people internally. She was too shy to say it out loud.

Once they finished eating, it was time to sleep.

Nix asked Lin to go back to the bedroom and when she was gone, Alex asked, "what's up?"

Alex could tell his wife had something to say to him.

Nix hugged Alex and smiled. "When I told you that you brought some great trouble home, I wasn't lying."

Alex smiled back and asked, "what troubles could a young homeless girl bring anyway?"

"Ho ho ho," Nix laughed playfully, "you'll be surprised. First things first, she's from a very very strong bloodline. Not from this world, of course. You're gonna get unnecessary trouble for sheltering her."

Alex shrugged. "We'll see about that."

Nix chuckled and rubbed her nose on her husband's. "I expected this from you. And the second thing which is gonna bring you slightly less pain than that is… she's a Jinx."

"A what?" Alex felt as if he didn't hear her properly.

"A Jinx," repeated Nix. "Jinxes are basically people with bad luck. Their fate is really very bad. There are many reasons for a person to become a Jinx, but the most common one is being born with bad fate."

"I see," said Alex. "So that girl is born with it?"

"Nope." Nix smiled and replied flatly. "There's other reasons for it, you'll know about it someday, given that you keep her around."

Alex nodded. It wasn't a problem then. She wasn't going anywhere and will be with him. He needed an assistant/secretary after all.

Looking at her husband and knowing what he might be thinking, Nix smirked and said, "you should be careful. Jinxes are a real pain. They'll bring you quite the bad luck."

Alex sighed. "Well, it can't be helped. I can't just leave the poor girl out on the streets again now, can I?"

"You can," Nix said and chuckled. "She'll not die by any means. Even though she's cursed with bad luck, the Heavens are just and won't let her suffer too much. She'll suffer for sure, but there will come days when she gets her happiness. Just like today."

"Hmm?" The topic felt interesting and Alex asked his wife to elaborate.

Nix continued, "she's suffered too much in the past and was too miserable. Fate thus led her to something good, which was crossing paths with you. This is Heaven's way of being just."

"Oh…" Alex nodded as all these things made sense.

Nix then chuckled and said, "also, Jinxes don't die unless their destiny is fulfilled. Had you not picked her up, there would be something else that would've made her happy. She wouldn't have suffered more. But yeah, if she got too happy, she would once again be back to being miserable."

"That… sounds like a real pain," said Alex.

"Indeed," agreed Nix. "It is a real pain and you have to have that girl walk on a delicate balance of suffering and happiness, otherwise her influence is going to take you down with her. Fufufu… I'd be happy to assist you when you're at your lowest though." 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝒏𝙤𝒗𝒆𝙡．𝙤𝒓𝙜

Alex pinched Nix's cheek. "I haven't even become rich and you're already thinking of what'll happen when I hit rock bottom. Such a bad wife you are."

Nix pecked his lips softly and winked at him. "This side of yours makes millions every month, she needs somebody to spoil, doesn't she?"

Alex chuckled. "Right. Right. Anyway—"

Fuuuusssssshhhh!

A loud torrent of water splashing alerted Alex and Nix, making them both look at the upper floors.

Alex rushed upstairs to see what was wrong and Nix simply chuckled and said:

"Seems like the bad luck has taken over."
