EX-HUSBAND'S REGRET: "Mommy, please forgive Daddy." 131
Luciana feigned ignorance as she shrugged nonchalantly before taking her seat on the chair opposite Alexa's.She had come prepared. Regarding the revelation she discovered about Alexa the other day, she knew she had the upper hand now. She had made further inquiries and realized her presumption was indeed correct; Alexa had lied to the firm in order to maintain her position. Now that Luciana was aware of her little secret, she believed she had the advantage of blackmailing Alexa with it. She had come up with a proposal and if Alexa didn't agree to it, then she'd make her true intentions known."What remark?" Luciana questioned, scrunching her brows at Alexa as a playful grin marred her face.Alexa's face twisted with annoyance, her blood boiling over at Luciana's mischief. "What are you doing here? I thought I already made myself clear the last time. I don't need you in my team."Luciana chuckled. "No, that's not what this is about. Yes, you've already made yourself clear and I'm not

"Are you alright?" Elena asked as she noticed her best friend had barely taken a bit from her food on the table. They were currently having dinner and Elena couldn't help but notice the look of worry etched on Alexa's face as they ate in silence.She had barely spoken a word since they arrived from work two hours ago. Alexa had mostly been in her thoughts, and Elena couldn't shake the feeling that something was off with her friend, especially since Alexa was normally a lively person whenever they were having dinner together as a family. But at that moment, her demeanor conveyed otherwise. Alexa, who had been gazing wearily at her food looked up at Elena, regarding her for a second before shaking her head in response.Elena dropped her cutlery, her face etched with concern as she asked further. "Why, what is wrong?"Alexa glanced between her and the kids happily eating with them. They seemed so unbothered, unaware of the inner turmoil happening in their mother's mind. Alexa couldn't b

Alexa retired to her bedroom that night after she chatted with Elena. She had barely been able to comprehend some of Elena's inquiries, but nonetheless, she refused to bother about them, especially the ones centered around Jordan.She had already decided that she was going to agree to the Restitution and after that, she was cutting ties again with Jordan and his family. She wanted nothing to do with them.Alexa had just changed into her nightgown and was about to head toward her bed when her phone on the table began to buzz.She walked over to it and picked it up, only to see it was Tyler calling. Alexa stole a quick glance at the wall clock and noted the time was past 8 PM.Heaving a sigh and grabbing the chair before settling into it, Alexa swiped the response button. "Hey," her voice was soft as she spoke. "How are you?"Recalling how their last conversation on the phone had ended the other day, her heart raced with guilt and perplexity. She had shunned Tyler and indirectly warned

Jordan was overwhelmed with joy as he returned to his cell. His expression was filled with delight as he was barely able to keep himself from grinning boyish as he walked into the cell. His inmate caught his demeanor and couldn't help but ask what was up with him. Jordan merely shrugged him off as he lay down on his bed, his eyes gazing up at the ceiling.He couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe Alexa had just approved of the Restitution. He had already lost hope initially, thinking she would never agree to it. But now she had, he couldn't comprehend her change of mind but he was glad she had.Finally, he would be getting out of this shithole. He could reclaim all that he had lost and that also included Alexa. He'd come to realize that he wanted her. Enough with the manipulation scheme, he wanted her again for real, and he was determined to get her back one way or the other, but first, his main concern was leaving this place.As Jordan remained in his thoughts, his mind strayed t

Alexa couldn't comprehend the reason Tyler had asked her that, but she knew she needed to respond swiftly if she didn't want to raise his suspicion.Making a right turn on the road, Alexa replied eventually without sparing him a glance. "Jordan Salvador. He is the convict who was apprehended and brought in to my custody, Ty. Why are you asking me that?""The one whose case you requested to take the sole charge of?" He inquired further, unknowingly causing Alexa's heartbeat to quicken.Alexa maintained her composure and replied. "Yeah, that's him. He was charged with embezzlement. But all that is getting resolved soon since he's been pleaded for the Restitution method." She clarified, silently praying he didn't press her for more after this.Tyler nodded curtly. "Mm, I see,"Alexa was quiet. He continued after a brief silence between them. "His mother reached out to me the other day, begging on his behalf. She told me you made the bail option unavailable, why is that?"Alexa was faze

"Court adjourned!" The declaration from the judge echoed throughout the courtroom as they stamped the agreement that had just been made by both the plaintiff and defendant, which was Jordan.Murmurs ensued following the verdict of Jordan's release. Jordan's family members who were present rushed over to embrace Jordan as one of the officers uncuffed him.Alexa could witness the scene from where she sat the the Prosecutor's table, which was directly facing the judge. The Restitution method had just been finalized and deemed official. Jordan was free to go as his family had just paid an enormous sum of money to compensate for the losses. An unsettling feeling stirred within Alexa as she watched them from where she was seated. She observed how Jordan's sister, Ivy had scurried towards Jordan to embrace him. Genuine smiles and excitement were evident in their demeanor as they basked in the joy of his release.Jordan's smile was radiant as he embraced his family. A wave of relief washed o

Alexa had just finished her conversation with one of her colleagues when she decided to leave the courtroom. It was merely a few minutes past 2 PM and she knew she needed to go pick Elena and the kids from school.Already tardy, she quickly arranged her files into her bag and retrieved her car keys from the table. She stole a glance at Jordan and saw he was engrossed in a conversation with his family. She felt her heart twinge but she quickly dismissed those emotions. She let out an exasperated sigh, realizing this was the last time she was probably going to see Jordan. He was returning home as all compensation had been made. This day marked the end of their meeting. Alexa couldn't deny the way her heart felt heavy at the realization. A part of her wasn't ready to let him off the hook, but she knew there was nothing she could do now. Heaving out another sigh, she redirected her gaze as she prepared to head out of the room.On her way, she noticed he was staring at her and this made

Alexa glanced up at him, her thoughts muddled in confusion. She had been wrestling with different concerns, but the most distressing was the news of her father's illness. Despite their strained relationship, it didn't lessen her concern; he was still her father, and she cared for him deeply. The revelation sent her heart racing with unease, as the idea of losing the one person who meant everything to her was unbearable. "Are you seriously considering this, Alexa? He is your father," Andy's voice broke through her thoughts. A frown marred his face as he stared at her.She shot him a sharp look, her brow knitting in frustration. "Could you give me a moment to process what you just told me? I'm still in shock, you know!" She raised an eyebrow at him. "Your father needs you, Alexa. I didn't expect you'd have to think it over before agreeing to come with me." "Go with you?" she scoffed Incredulously, shaking her head in disagreement. "I’m not going with you.
