Several distressing thoughts twirled in Alexa's mind as she faced her daughter's demand. How was she to explain things to her better understanding? She was still too young to comprehend any of it. What was she supposed to say in this situation?

As if on cue, Elena walked into them in the kitchen and witnessed the scene unfolding. Her brows furrowed in confusion as she met Alexa's gaze which was directed at her from the toddler's shoulder.

She mouthed in confusion. "What is happening?"

Alexa made an I'm just as confused as you are' face before averting her gaze. She eventually extracted herself from the toddler's embrace and cupped her cheeks, staring into her pity-filled orbs. Gosh, she felt her heart twinge at the sight.

"Blair, baby, you need to understand, Mommy, okay?" Alexa started gently, her thumb grazing the toddler's puffy cheek. "Daddy is away for the time being and I have no idea when he'd be coming back. Do you want to know the truth? I haven't heard from your Dad in a whi

    Alexa was struck dumb with disbelief for a moment, unable to believe her eyes. Her hands holding the paperwork, slightly trembled as she grappled with the situation. Jordan had been charged with embezzlement? And not just that, but his case had been assigned to her as well. What? Think about the twist of fate. How the heck had this happened? Alexa couldn't help but wonder.Her brows were furrowed in a deep frown, and her lips pressed to a thin line as she reeled back from shock. Her gaze fell on the photos once more, a stark reminder of the fact that her eyes weren't playing tricks with her. It was indeed her ex-husband, Jordan Salvador, who had been convicted and, as fate would've it, who had also fallen under her care.Alexa contemplated her thoughts for a moment, still bewildered by the whole revelation. She couldn't quite comprehend how Jordan's affairs had been placed under her care. Nonetheless, she was acutely aware that her colleagues did not know about her initial relationshi

    "He's currently in custody. You should be there by noon. Is that alright, Lexa?" Tyler added sedately, his voice pulling Alexa from her thoughts. She blinked weakly and nodded like he could see her. "Yeah, yeah. That's alright. I got it." She replied despite her insides unraveling with nerves. She was feeling skeptical as she hadn't anticipated the interrogation with her ex-husband to be on this day. She contemplated asking Tyler for a postponement, but she quickly pushed aside those thoughts, reassuring herself that there was no need to feel daunted. It wasn't her first time interrogating a convict. Yes, that's what Jordan was now. Just a convict and the man, whose blood ran in her children's DNA. There wasn't more attached to it. Alexa mused.There was a brief pause on the other end before Tyler's voice came through again, this time laced with softness, in contrast to his earlier formal tone."Hey, Lexa." He called out to Alexa, prompting her to snap from her daze. She held the ph

    Alexa felt a great surge of thrill course through her body as she stared at Jordan, who mirrored her gaze with astonishment. Despite the torrent of emotions flooding through her upon seeing him again, her facial expression gave nothing away. She remained inscrutable, her gaze directed at him in a cold, calculating glare. On the other hand, Jordan struggled to comprehend who he was actually staring at. For a fleeting moment, he had thought he might just be hallucinating Alexa to be the one, but the familiar, sweet scent of her perfume soon diffused into his nostrils, confirming that it was indeed his ex-wife, Alexa McKanne; the woman whom he had been searching for relentlessly all this while. Jordan reeled with disbelief as he locked eyes with her. Though her eyes were devoid of the usual warmth they held four years ago, he was elated to see her again regardless. "Alexa..." Jordan muttered once more, his lips parting with shock but she simply chose not to acknowledge him. Alexa was a

    Alexa paused upon hearing his question. The sincerity and warmth in his voice penetrated her defenses, stirring a flutter in her heart, though her face remained impassive. She hesitated, biting her lower lip hard as she lost herself in thought for a few seconds, her gaze distant. Despite the unease it caused, she felt a shiver of excitement under Jordan's focused stare.Nonetheless, she maintained her composure, determined not to let him see that his words still affected her. With a steadying breath, she turned her frosty gaze back to him."I would appreciate it if you refrained from addressing me in such a casual manner, Mr. Salvador. We have no connection whatsoever. Please do not act as if we were ever acquainted. Is that clear?" she stated firmly.Jordan was momentarily rendered speechless by her words. Her cold demeanor and harsh tone shattered his heart into pieces. He opened his mouth to respond, but no words came out as he struggled to comprehend Alexa's reaction. How could sh

    Jordan remained lost in his thoughts for a moment until an unexpected voice interrupted his concentration."You have a visitor, Mr. Salvador," the officer's voice echoed in the quiet space.Feeling a surge of curiosity about the identity of the visitor, he reluctantly lifted his gaze towards the officer standing across the room. "Who is it?" Jordan inquired, his brows furrowing in confusion."Family. Your mother," The officer responded while unlocking the door.Initially, a wave of disappointment washed over Jordan as he had hoped for a different visitor. He let out a weary sigh, his thoughts spiraling into a mix of heartbreak and desire. He couldn't quite understand why he had expected Alexa to be the one visiting him, especially after her earlier assertion that they had no connection whatsoever. He inwardly scolded himself for harboring such delusions.Shaking off his disappointment, Jordan finally stood up and made his way across the room to join the officer, who then guided him t

    Catherine was fazed for a moment, her mind spiraling with conflicting thoughts. From the expression on her face, Jordan could tell she was still reeling from the disbelief from the revelation. Like, who wouldn't? Alexa not just becoming a prosecutor but the one in charge of his case, had also struck him like a thunderbolt. He couldn't believe it. And he didn't expect his mother to believe the news so suddenly.Meanwhile, Catherine's brows furrowed in a frown as she regarded her son once more. His expression brimmed with nothing but seriousness, and it really troubled her. Recalling the past and what she had put Alexa through, Catherine felt a twinge in her heart.

You're serious? Are you sure you aren't mistaking her for someone else? I've considered all possibilities and it sti

    Alexa stepped out of the police station and made her way to her car immediately after concluding her meeting with Jordan. As she settled into the driver's seat, she took a moment to calm her racing heart, gripping the steering wheel tightly. A flurry of thoughts raced through her mind, prompting her to draw in a deep breath to gather herself.The encounter with Jordan had left her reeling. Although she had mentally prepared for this moment after Tyler's call, the reality of facing him was still daunting.With a heavy sigh, she reflected on their earlier conversation, her heart pounding as conflicting emotions swirled within her, causing an ache in her chest. She despised this feeling. How could she still be affected by him after everything that had happened? Surely, it must be shock. She couldn't possibly still harbor feelings for Jordan. No.Shoving those thoughts aside, memories of Jordan's betrayal crept back into her mind, igniting a simmering anger. Her demeanor shifted, the desi

    Alexa took a seat across from hers after they had exchanged pleasantries. Though her demeanor remained neutral, the lady Alexa had come to visit could clearly notice that Alexa wasn't in a cheerful mood. The lady simply regarded her as she awaited Alexa to break the silence."So, to what do I owe the pleasure of your visit, Attorney McKanne?" She inquired, a subtle smile gracing her lips as her blue eyes lingered on Alexa.Alexa lifted her gaze and studied her, examining her features; the lady was dressed in a sharp corporate outfit, and her blonde hair cascaded down her face in soft waves, complementing her ocean-blue orbs. Alexa's gaze gradually drifted from the woman's face down to the table where the small glass plate settled, with the bold inscriptions on it, 'Principal Cartersville.' It was clear the woman before her was no other person than her friend, Nina Cartersville, also the principal of the prestigious school Alexa's children attended.Following the troubling incident wi

    Tyler Sterling returned to his hotel room after the conclusion of his meeting with one of the significant clients he had gone to see in the other city. It had been successful and Tyler was glad to return with fulfillment. It was already past 5 pm when he arrived at the suite.He stripped off his suit jacket, exhaling heavily as he draped it on the chair nearby before heading over to hit the shower. He let the waters cascade down his body, offering him solace and relief as he remained beneath the shower for a brief moment.When he was done bathing, he returned to the living to get dressed in just a pair of boxer briefs and a singlet to clad his well-sculpted chest.He paced about the room, searching for his cellular device as he wanted to see the picture of Alexa on his phone.

    Alexa momentarily froze, her heart racing with trepidation. Indeed, just as she had suspected before now, Jordan had already learned about the kids' existence. Anxiety tugged at her heartstrings as she contemplated her inner turmoil. She wondered how he had gotten to know. Perhaps, it was Catherine who had said something to him after her visit and seeing the way she had been protective about her children. So there was no need to confront Jordan on how he got to know about that information. Alexa mused. "Answer me, Alexa. I think I deserve to know that, don't I? That's the least you could do after keeping it a secret from me all this while." Jordan's voice resonated in her ears once more, breaking into her train of thought.Alexa struggled to regain her composure, but when she finally did, her anxiety transformed into anger as she stared up at him, registering his audacity."What?" She exclaimed, regarding him with disbelief. But Jordan's expression was inscrutable, his eyes observin

    He was rendered speechless, his lips slightly parting with shock.Jordan swallowed hard as he absorbed Alexa's words. A wave of disbelief washed over him as he averted his gaze, struggling to grasp the reality that Luciana had actually confronted Alexa. What the fuck? He seethed inwardly. But he was still skeptical that Luciana would do such a thing.Jordan turned his gaze to Alexa. "Are you certain about this, baby?" Jordan finally asked, confusion evident in his voice.Alexa regarded and scoffed with irritation. "Why on earth would I fabricate that? Your stupid mistress barged into my office, threatening me to stay away from you as if I were even remotely interested. You need to keep your leech on that bitch, Jordan, because the next time she pulls a stunt like that, I won't hold back to retaliate, and I don't think you wouldn't suffer the consequences for her actions too." Her serious tone underscored her warning."What? But I didn't do anything." Jordan protested in disbelief.Ale

    Jordan settled into the chair facing Alexa in the interrogation room, having just finished a meeting with his mother an hour prior. He had been looking forward to this session with Alexa while he waited in his cell, and now that he was in her presence, a wave of relief washed over him as he inhaled her sweet scent. This was his favorite moment.Although Alexa remained completely absorbed in her laptop, ignoring his arrival, Jordan didn’t mind her disregard. He leaned back in his seat, his heart fluttering inexplicably as he admired her. He noticed her hair cascading in radiant waves down her shoulders, her light makeup accentuating her sharp eyes that sparkled behind her glasses. Each glance filled him with admiration, intensifying his infatuation."I thought I warned you to stop staring at me like that?" Alexa's voice cut through his thoughts, startling him. He quickly composed himself and cleared his throat as he realized he had been caught.Speaking sincerely, he confessed, "You c

    Jordan matched Catherine’s gaze as he sat across from her in the visitation room. She had just returned to see him the day after her visit with Alexa. She was obviously there to give him the update."How did it go?" Jordan inquired, breaking the silence. His eyes were fixed on her as he awaited her answer.He had just finished eating and Catherine had insisted she'd only tell him what happened after he was done with his lunch.Heaving a sigh, Catherine shook her head, a look of regret washing over her. "It was futile, Jordan. She rejected the gifts and stated she wanted nothing to do with our family... She’s furious, Jordan, and I fear it will take a long time to change her mind." She sighed, resting her palm against her face in frustration. Jordan absorbed her words, taking a moment to process the information. He fell silent, reflecting inwardly. Alexa’s rejection of the gifts came as no surprise; her hostility and indifference were clear indicators of her feelings. But he felt his

    "...Are those my grandchildren?"Alexa paused, momentarily taken aback by Catherine's question. The two women locked eyes, an unspoken exchange of emotions passing between them. Alexa felt her insides spiraling with turmoil. Deep down, Alexa wondered why Catherine felt entitled to ask such a thing. Could it be she had uncovered the truth? She wondered. Was she the same woman who had attempted to touch Blair's hair at school? A flood of troubling thoughts raced through Alexa's mind, leaving her momentarily dazed and struggling to find clarity as she stared back at Catheine absentmindedly.On the other hand, Catherine grappled with what she had just witnessed. The resemblance she hadn't noticed before, especially from the female twin. She looked so much like Jordan, and it fazed Catherine; for a moment, she thought of believing. However, she was still reluctant to give Alexa the benefit of the doubt. She'd always hated Alexa and didn't trust her. She always perceived her as a cheat sinc

    That same morning when Luciana paid a visit to Alexa, Catherine was also visiting her son in prison. She had gone bearing food. She urged him to eat while he told her about the recent discovery.Astonishment washed over Catherine as she struggled to process Jordan's words. She blinked in confusion as she reciprocated his gaze."It's been confirmed, Mother. Alexa really has my children. Norman brought me the DNA results yesterday. I truly believe it now." Jordan revealed, his orbs glinting with determination and belief.Meanwhile, Catherine's heart clenched in shock, and she fell silent for a moment, allowing the revelation to sink in. Jordan patiently gave her the space to absorb the news. He already expected she would be shocked when he finally told her. I mean, who wouldn't?After a brief pause, Catherine stammered, disbelief lacing her words. "B-but how? How is that even possible? Didn't Alexa suffer a miscarriage then?"

Though she heard the noise, she was reluctant to lift her gaze as she was still tackling the workload and didn't want to entertain any distractions whatsoever. She tried to shake off her mind from feeling concerned, hoping Sapphire would attend to whatever thing was going on on her behalf. She had already instructed Sapphire that she was entertaining no visitors that morning as she had a lot on her plate. Sapphire understood and had already adjusted Alexa's schedule.Now, Alexa couldn't comprehend the noise going on outside.
