At The Mercy of Mr Alexander Chapter 020
Amelia Mistress? Did he just call me Alexander's mistress?I halted in my tracks, standing like a deer caught in a headlamp. My head reeling from what I had just heard. The flashlights went off and I was blinded and dazed by them.Again, I felt Dean place one hand on my head and the other on my shoulder as he gently pushed me into the car. Hayley grabbed my hand, cradling it in hers."That was insane!" Hayley exclaimed. "I know, right?" I replied, still trying to catch my breath and gather my thoughts.Reporters surrounded the car, taking pictures and shouting at the tinted car glass as Dean drove away."How did they know?" I asked no one in particular. How did this happen? Panic set in as the thought of going to the house and facing Alexander, especially his grandfather crossed my mind."I had a feeling something was off. I just knew they were out there for you. I could feel it in my bones."Only a handful of people knew about my marriage to Alexander. I stared at my friend suspici

Alexander "Dean!" I yelled out. Striding out of the house in annoyance. He hastened to my side, "Yes, Mr Alex." "Go get me some ice cream." I curtly instructed."What kind of ice cream should I get, sir?" He asked. "Kind?" I asked confused."Yes, sir. Which flavour?" He clarified. I glared at him, realizing I hadn't asked Amelia what flavour she wanted. "Just get every flavour they have," I said, letting out a deep sigh. I could not believe I was doing this. But I gave in only because she was pregnant. I went into Pa Martins's room to see if he was still upset about the news, bidding my time until Dean returned."Pa" I called as I walked towards his bed. He raised his head briefly, acknowledging my presence before returning his focus to his phone. He was likely going through the articles that had been published in the news. And getting himself worked up."Have you discovered who leaked the story to the press?" He asked, his attention still on his phone. Give it a break, Pa.I s

Amelia "Please kiss me," I silently begged with my eyes shut tight. I waited, my lips still pressed lightly against his.I had imagined this moment in my mind countless times. When I could feel his lips on me. I wanted it to be as special as I had imagined.Time seemed to have stopped as I held my breath waiting. I could feel his breath as his lips parted slowly. Just as I thought our lips might finally meet, the jarring sound of his phone shattered our fragile moment.I opened my eyes to see him stepping back, a phone pressed to his ear. Disappointment surged through me as he turned and walked away leaving me alone. A sigh escaped me. He hadn't even spared a glance or a word. Alexander could be so cruel, but I still couldn’t shake the feeling of longing. I wondered what it would be like to be held by him, to have his complete attention on me for more than just a moment.I shivered at the thought and told myself it was pointless to dwell on what could have been.Later, as night fe

Selene I listened intently to the line as my father’s voice crackled from the other end. “Has he thrown her out of the house?”I leaned against the door frame, frustration gnawing at me. “She’s still there, but Martins is furious.”“Selene, is he furious enough to throw her out?” my father pressed.“From the way he spoke to Alex yesterday, he might not be furious enough yet. But when he finds out that the person who leaked the information was Amelia Fray, then he’ll be furious enough." I said, a sly grin spreading across my face.“Okay, keep me updated,” he instructed before the line went dead.I stepped out of my room, eager to see Amelia being expelled from the house. But everything seemed eerily calm. The house was quiet. I eavesdropped on Alex and Martins yesterday and overheard Martins instructing Alex to find out who had leaked the story.Given Alex’s efficiency, I expected him to have discovered the name of the person already. Was he really still unaware? Or was he reluctant?

Alexander "Selene Rodriquez!" I exclaimed. My phone pressed on my ear. "You are sure she's the owner of the number?" "Yes boss, I'm certain. The person who anonymously tipped off the press claimed Selene paid him to do so." The voice from the other end answered. I let out a deep sigh and ended the call. What was Selene playing at? I thought to myself. I shook my head. A wave of relief washed over me knowing I was right all along. It wasn't Amelia. God! I roughly raked my hand through my hair. What would I have done if she was the one? Throw her out? It was getting harder every day to resist that woman.Last night, I had almost given in to my desires. I was so close to tasting her soft lips. I smiled as I remembered her unusual night terror sounds. It had taken everything in me not to pin her to the bed and have her moaning out my mouth.I shook my head, trying to disperse the thoughts. There is no need to dwell on something that was bound to never happen.I dialled Charles's numbe

Amelia I sat on my bed, staring at the meal the maid had brought. Despite its enticing appearance, a sense of unease settled over me. I couldn’t quite identify the source of my discomfort.Suddenly, the feeling grew more intense, and a pressing urge to pee overtook me. I quickly stood up and made my way to the bathroom, hoping the brief interruption would help calm my growing anxiety.After relieving myself, I felt slightly better. I returned to the bed and began to eat. My phone rang—it was Hayley."Hey, girl. How are you doing?" Hayley's voice came through."I'm fine, just finished eating," I replied."Yeah, me too. I bought tacos," she said."Oh my God, Hayley. I wish I could have some of those. I would kill for them right now,""You have chefs there. I'm sure they can make whatever you want for you. Just ask them." she suggested."I don’t want the fancy tacos. I want the one we buy from the street vendor around the corner. They taste so much better," I said, noticing the door ha

Chapter 26Amelia"Oh my God!" I cried out, slowly peeling my eyes open. Alexander was still beside me, his face etched with confusion that mirrored my own. The sight of so much blood left me paralyzed. My hands instinctively went to my belly. "No," I whispered, my mind racing. "No, no, no."I felt Alexander's arms around me, holding me close. "We need to get you to the hospital," he said, his voice calm and steady.I nodded, still in shock. This couldn't be happening. I couldn’t bear the thought of losing the baby.Placing one arm under my legs, Alex lifted me from the floor. I wrapped my arms around his neck, burying my face in his chest. I felt numb like I was in a dream. This couldn't be real. But the blood on my clothes was all too real.The car ride was a blur. I remember Alexander's tight grip on my hand, his eyes flitting between the road and me, while my breathing came in ragged gasps. I felt like I was in a nightmare, unable to wake up.We arrived at the hospital, and a tea

Alexander "The investors you requested are here," James said over the phone.I hesitated, unsure of what to do. Amelia was still recovering in the hospital, and I didn't want to leave her side. But the meeting with the investors was crucial - it was my chance to finally deal with Paul once and for all. I thought about how Amelia was still grieving, and my heart went out to her. "Cancel the meeting, James," I said finally. "Reschedule it for tomorrow. I have something I need to take care of today.""Okay, boss." I felt a pang of guilt for even considering leaving Amelia. But I knew how crucial this meeting was. I couldn't let Paul's schemes ruin everything I'd worked hard for. But I couldn't abandon Amelia even when I knew she had her best friend with her. I saw how heartbroken she was. And to even blame herself? God! That was too much.It was dark already, and I was still in the hospital. Two couples sat beside me in the waiting room. The woman kept crying uncontrollably, her fac
