She adjusted her eyesight to the cringe call of her name and saw the woman who had called her, it was Amelia along with Charlie matched in navy blue clothing.
Alexa sneered at her greetings and made her face sour. Any time they appeared, good things never came for her.“Miss Amelia, are we that close for you to introduce me as SISTER? ” Her blunt words went deep into Amelia's heart which made her grit her teeth.
Must she always have a comeback packaged every time. Can't she not be the loser for once. She fumed angrily and then his it under a beaming smile.“Why can't you be so nice for once ” Amelia's face could not hold it any more and turned sour revealing her ugly intentions. “As you can see I am here with my boyfriend and....” She looked around and when she did not catch a glimpse of Ray she flared up.

Alexa dropped her utensils on the tissue and looked annoyed at him. How could Ray do this to him, the Ray she knows can not do such wicked thing to him.“You're surprised right? The man you trusted turned out to be a psycho. It was years ago, he is the reason why my parents and brother died. I had no hope of living until I met you in college. You might have forgotten me since you have temporary amnesia. ”“How did you know that I have that? The more you talk, the more I am curious to know you. ” Alexa kept her guards up as he chuckled more. He removed his mask down and the huge scar frightened her.The scar moved from his forehead down to his chin. Half of his face carrannoying the ugly scar. It looked so permanent and ugly yet, he did not seem bothered about it.“I am sorry that I frightened you with my scar. It won't bite you ” His face turned sour as he apologized. Perkins did not also think that even her would be terrified
The voice recorder beeped as it indicated that the recording had finished. Her hands and ears itched for more gossip. This wasn't enough, be that as it may be, she had her next clue of what to do.Alexa breathed out exhaustedly, climb back upstairs and shut the door the way she met it. Next morning, she was going to book an appointment with Emily and make sure the whole confusion is cleared....................Next Day.Somewhere in California.Ever since last eight hours, the young master had been smiling uncontrollably which made Butler Chen to be worried at the same time. He had never seen such moment that could make him smile like that.“She is more pretty in real life unlike the photos ” He replied with his chair swinging in the air joyfully. He tapped his fingers on the table and stood up.Never did he know that in his lifetime he would still be able to smile and it was all thanks to Alexa, too bad, her heart belonged to anothe
Her face was so stern like a mother who was about to discipline her son for bad habits when she observed that he was reluctant to let her know the truth.“Do you know the reason why I got you a body guard?”“No........for safety?”“There is this anonymous psycho that had every detail of you. From the date of your birth, every entire details and I mean it. He even knows about our contract marriage and also the baby. I felt he was too dangerous for him to know that much. I have being trying to track him down and all my attempts always turn in vain. I did not want to hide this from you cause I was afraid you would not live your life normal again ” He hugged her tightly before she left the room.Alexa took a deep breath and tapped his head. What was she thinking? He did it for the good of her, then why was she angry?“I understand but she should have let me know. You keep so much secret away from you. Recall our
“Me?” Emily still in the state of shock asked with a surprised look on her face. What exactly did Alexa want from now? Wasn't their last discussion not enough to convince her?“Who are you exactly to my mother?” Emily chuckled at the same repeated question. It appeared that Alexa was not ready to drop the case of her mother's death and neither did Emily want to answer any of her interrogations.“You've started again. Weren't you satisfied with my response the last time you raised this issue? Miss Parker, I suppose you drop this problem. We aren't related and that is all ” Alexa who did not believe a word, turned on the voice recorder and allowed their conversation to be played.Emily listened to the conversation and smirked. So this recorder still existed?“So? What is your point exactly Miss Parker?”“You do know my mother, then why did you deny it?”“Did I ever deny it? I do k
“That is what we were discussing about before you came. Your mother told me about her cancer issue and how she has only two months to live. ” She managed to reveal the truth without shedding tears. Although, Emily was a terrible person to her as far as she knew, however, death wasn't a thing to joke about.Ray sighed out and tapped his feet on the ground. Never did he think such situation would come to him. He never liked his mother, but after hearing this, he felt weird. Was this the feeling of mother and son connection?“What if we are able to get a good surgeon, would she still be alive?”“Not sure about that........”Jack ran through the door with his face all sweaty and panting. Alexa had called him on their wat to the hospital and on hearing the heartbreaking news, he had to board a flight back to California in order to see her.He met with the doctor who attended to her and after some minutes of talking, he was
He directly threw the documents that he had waited for at their face and made them read it aloud. This receipt was taken by him after their last transaction in the business world. Where they stupid to think that he would not find them?Now that they had been caught red handed, they had no audacity to talk any longer and looked at the man who had written the script for them.This whole drama was entirely a play to get Ray out of the chairman position and put Mr. Gan on it. If they succeeded then they would be paid huge some of money. Not thinking about the consequences, they all agreed and went against the boss.From the look of things, the boss was in not going to go easy on them. “So your mouth have decided to keep shut? Any way, I am in a good mood for now, I will only let you off with a warning and perhaps a sack letter. You'd receive it in the next three seconds. It was nice working with you. You are all fired! ” The whole hall turned quiet with all of their mouth as shut as anyth
“So you are dumb? You can't speak again?! Tell me it to my face that what I am seeing is a dream and not reality!” She begged and pleaded to him.“What does it look like it is? Isn't it so visible what I just did? Alexa, I only wanted you for the child and now that he is dead, what do you want me to do with you? Pretend to continue loving you?!” His sour words definitely did the unspeakable as a quick harsh slap landed on his face. His neck moved to the right in the direction of the slap.It was painful and also filled with emotions. Ray best decided not to show it on his face and wore his indifferent expression back on.“You are just like the other men out there. I thought I could trust you with my weak heart yet you proved me wrong. You stabbed me harshly on my back with my cousin! Ray, I did give you my heart and loved you mercilessly however your love to me was impure!” She pulled out the necklace from her neck, proceeded to the wedding ring on her fourth finger and swung at him.
Next Six Years, In the Wedding Hall.“I now pronounce you husband and wife ”The pastor announced with the whole crowd cheering and howling at them. Bunch of roses fell on Valerie's head while Gabriel put in her ring on her fourth hand.They had finally agreed to get married and now that was done, her best friend still hadn't arrived. She contacted her and told her of her wedding day yet she didn't show up.“You've been watching outside frequently. are you expecting someone? ”“Yes, Alexa promised she'd be here. Maybe she just lied to get me out of her phone, or she is just avoiding here cause you Ray is also here too ”“Oh that is true. Does he know? ” Gabriel whispered into her ears while taking her to the backroom. He closed her eyes and opened it with a surprised look. Valerie gasped and ran to Alexa and embraced her.“Happy wedding Valerie!” Alexa smiled. Her smile made Va
Meanwhile....Valerie jumped through all the messy snack nylons on the ground to the chair, laid her head on Gabriel's lap and pushed in some chips in his mouth.“Open my big baby!” She jokingly teased him while he munched on the single chips and then swallowed it. His eyes was concentrated on the document he was typing so as not to make mistake with the letters.The documents was all about shares of the LR corps being transfered to the young miss as compensation for the big boss's frequent behavior of ignoring her.“You are always working! When can you stop and focus on me for one day ”“I wished my dear but you know how the workload of the LR corps is. It is a busy company with branches opened up in different locations. Obviously, there is suppose to be some heavy workload. ”“Then why do you have to bear it all? ” Valerie's upset and sassy mouth resurfaced as she put away the chips along with th
Jack stared at his son confusedly. Just how much did this boy love her so much that he his such crucial truth from her. Anyway, no matter how long he thinks he can hide it, she would find out one day.“Ray, listen up. You have to let her know. She is your blood and she deserves to know. You can't keep her in the dark. Yesterday, she dropped off to see your mother. Did you know how guilty your mother felt when she saw Alexa's current position? ”“Lexa came to see me? Why did not tell me?!” He jerked up from the couch with his face angry.Jack smirked at his response. So under this arrogant mask, he still very much cared and looked after her secretly, so why then did he now avoid her? When he received a call from Ray's personal maid about how Lexa felt, his heart broke into tears and decided to talk some sense into his son.“You better let her know and stop all this. Once you lose her, I am not sure you'd be able to find someone
“Pick up the call Ray, you are scaring me!” She sobbed in her palms, repeated the phone call again, and got the same response. Her calls were not going through because he kept declining her calls.She was damn confused and sobbed harder. Weren't they clear on loving each other without the child? Why did he suddenly ignore her every day after since the death of their unborn child?!“Madam, maybe he is busy to answer the phone call. You can try later. ” Miss Naomi tried her best to give some comforting words. She herself found Ray's attitude quite suspicious too, what happened to the super couple?“Busy?! That is a lie. He keeps ignoring my call and avoiding me. What is wrong with him? He wasn't like this before. Ray, don't hurt me like this please ” Her brightly shining tears dropped from her eyes until her eyes turned red.Miss Naomi helped to clean off Lexa's tears and took her to the bathroom to have a bath. Whatever was
He told her, bent his back and raised her up. He wrapped her around his back and brought his hands to his front and saw blood.“Lexa, are you alright?!” His eyes became worried as more blood was seen from where she was seating tied with rope and more dropping. “What is going wrong?”“Ray, I don't know. Ouch! I.....” Alexa yelled with force. “The baby! Help!” She shivered in pain as Ray ran quickly shooting anybody that came in his way. He jumped into the helicopter and supported her in his arms and ordered Miles to fly the helicopter to the hospital.Within five minutes, they arrived at the hospital with Alexa bleeding quickly. He ran into the ICu room called for help and rollers came out from the room, pushing her to the theatre.The others came running to the hospital including Valerie. Good news that she was found and saved but now, she was bleeding to death. What a bad Luck. Along with Valerie came her broth
Khloe removed her sunglasses, smiled towards Lexa and together, they went to have a talk in the boxing ring.“I......have something to say to you ” Lexa started the conversation as the two women were not ready to talk to each other. They were rivals in love chasing after one boy, so it would be unlike them to talk to each other.“Let me go first. Alexa, I am sorry for what I have done to you. I hated you so much because I was blinded by fake love. Ray And I have been childhood sweethearts and even dated for two months before I moved with my Uncle to the US. To be frank with you, I was jealous! I called you so many names all with fact that, you were better than me ”“I recall the day we officially met and you introduced yourself as his wife. I was so damn jealous that I was about to strangle myself. I did not know Ray would move on without me and even ignored our years of love, or I thought that he loved me ”“I fo
“He is associated with the underworld and many of his life history is a mystery. It is too dangerous. If you live me, I promise to make you happy for the rest of your life ” He tied his bleeding wrist with the table cloth.“Felix, are you somehow deaf?! Okay, Ray is not worthy of me, neither would you be. Let me put this straight to you, I don't see you as a man. I can't like you. ”“Why! Why! tell me! I am sure that cunning Ray has bewitched you into loving him. I know a cleanser that could relieve you off the bondage. I just ask you to love me back, Lexa!” He continued to stress on the matter.So all this while he had been with Alexa, she never even for once fancied him, has he been living in fantasy all this while? The truth was bitter and yet, he rejected it and blamed Ray for everything.Why won't he blame him? He was the main culprit why he could not get to Alexa. Every of his schemes to have her all failed and now th
“You are so naive! That is not how a relationship works, Valerie ” Gabriel snapped back at her, pushed her away from his view and moved to the exit of the room. “It requires trust and love. Just you knowing your feelings doesn't count. Feelings go and come which doesn't mean that you truly love the person!”“I know I am a naive stupid girl at love still I know what I feel when I see it. You are the one I like and I am sure of that ”“What of your other seven EX. Is that what you also told them too?”“Maybe I did. That is not the point, you're the true one as far as I know, don't ignore my feelings for you, please ”“Can't you get it?! Miss Davies, dinner would be served soon I suggest you wait in the dining room ” Gabriel emotionlessly answered her. He was done bickering with a girl who had no knowledge on relationship.“Fine! I don't want to have your dinner! You know wh
That made more sense. It was all Alexa's idea to make him free today to spend time with her, what a good babe! But, visit his parents? Won't that be too fast? They weren't even dating yet, if she came with him, it would make their relationship more complicated.Gabriel pulled his brows up with question marks written all over his head. Did she just say she wanted to see his parents with him? Was she thinking well? Or did she hit her head on something before coming out?“Why that look? I like old people ” She lied with her nose in an upright position. She hated old people, they over stressed her too much however for Gabriel, she was willing to try to like them.“You sure? My parents are not that old. Then if you say so, let us go. You just have to be careful of their questions. ” He reversed out from the lawn, drove down the road to the countryside.Hours later, they arrived at a duplex house covered in grasses and flowers with a little
