Alex shrugged off her shoulders. For now, she will just accept these things but later she would have to fight it with Mr. Josh.

"Thanks, Ashia for the help. I appreciate it. If you don't mind, I can take it from here. You have done enough already."

Ashia nodded and pointed to a bell on the wall.

"If you need me just touch the bell and I will be here in a blink"

She said, turned, and left.

"Sir, the result is out and like we predicted, she was poisoned"

The officer said and waited for Senior Bleak to say something.

"Okay, officer but I believe you know your job. Find out who did and why she was poisoned.

    Josh and Alex entered the room they are to share from now on as a couple. Automatically, Senior Bleak had spoken to Josh about having the mansion until Alex is safe, he can then think of moving over to his own house or probably go back to the state with Alex which he agrees without a complaint.

    Alex heard the door closed and sighed. She was relieved since Josh is out of the room she might have some moment of peace before he returns. Her Life had suddenly turned upside down. Getting married to someone who she did not have a little feeling for would take all the strength in her, not that the guy is a gentleman, he is a total jerk who looks for her troubles every moment of the day. Her thoughts traded off to her little bro and she smiled. The smile on his face when he saw her with Josh was priceless and the young man really believed that she and Josh are helplessly in love, only if he knew that she is far from finding love, far from finding happiness. But does it matter? When the people that matter most in our lives are happy, we could do anything to keep smiles longer. That's what love is all about, we do things for the people we love and Alex believes so much in it. If her brother is happy then she is happy. She stood up from the cold tiles and went to have a

    Alex stared at the photos and the note and cursed in her mind.How dare Luke try to tarnish her image like this? To think she dated this low life was unbelievable.

    Christy managed and stripped off her dress and went into the bathroom to freshen up. She did not take time, she came out as soon as she entered. One would actually think that she did not shower at all but the water drops on her body will change your mind. She put on a simple gown and went out of her room. Bobby and Gab with Mrs. Matilda sat at the dining table with Erica absent. Christy took a seat opposite her mother while Gab kept staring at her with a smirk on. She ignored him totally and forced her mind to focus on how to break the news to the family. Erica appeared a moment later and sat beside Christy and gave her a sweet smile. "You can as well put a smile on your face please," Erica whispered and Christy nodded. "Shall we eat now?" Bobby said, putting his phone inside his pocket.

Get your father for me," Senior said and waved him off. Josh turned and left. Getting to his father's room, he saw him pacing around with his mom under the duvet. The atmosphere was a bit tense.

    Josh was beyond reasoning. He could not hold himself anymore. The man standing in his front used to ask questions before dishing out blames but since he found his grandkids, he changed, it just has to be about them. Josh felt he was no longer his grandfather who nurtured and loved him. "I see where this is coming from. Alex was right. When you are done with your nonsense, meet me in the study, and as for the divorce, I will make sure it happens because I am the reason you both got married in the first place," Senior Bleak said and walked out of his grandson's room "The young man's sense of reasoning had been clouded with jealousy.

    Alex stood outside the door and let her tears flow. She stared at her wedding finger, her ring was not gone. She had returned it to the man who gave it to her. The man who had openly loved her for five days, the man who had suddenly lost interest in her because he figured that she belonged to the top and was threatened by it and that maybe, she would be chosen over him. Someone who claims to love you would not stop loving you because a table has been turned around in your life. That's what with the rich dudes, they want a trophy wife and once they realize that you wouldn't be or there was every tendency you will be richer than them, they will oppress you to the extent that your sanity will be forever gone from you. For a moment, Alex thought things would be fine but finding who she was had taken more happiness than it had given but no matter how hard it was for her to forget what had just happened, she would forget eventually. She thought of taking a vacation but decide
