"Oh my God..." Evie murmurs, coming out of Alec’s arms. "That’s not how I imagined this conversation.” "Funny... I was hoping we’d mess up the table one more time.” Evangeline suppresses the laughter and hides her face in her hands. Alec approaches and takes her hands, making her look at him. "I love you. Shall we start again?” "Alec, there’s a lot open. Allegra and I have a life in London. You can’t think that just one kiss will make me drop everything.” Alec held his face with his hands and pulled gently closer to him. Her lips met in a soft kiss, which gradually became more intense. They gave in to sensation, their bodies approached as they kissed. Evangeline could feel her heart pounding in his chest as her hands ran down her back. The kiss continued, seeming to last for an eternity as they got lost in the sensation. When they finally broke the kiss to breathe, their faces were still close, their eyes meeting in an emotional look of emotion. "Does two solve?" Alec
Sophie opened her mouth at no time, as she had Dominique as her spokesperson. "What did you think? That Alec would be alone for the rest of his life?" Even if Evangeline didn’t say anything, Dominique distilled his poison. "Quite the contrary! After searches and more searches, he finally found Sophie. The perfect woman for him!” The last thing Evangeline wanted and needed was a fight with Dominique. She just looked at Alec and sighed. "I’m leaving.” "No, Evangeline... wait.” Evangeline lifted the hem of the dress and literally ran away from those three. Alec took a deep breath and decided to solve those problems, before going after his great love. "What the fuck are you doing here?” "It’s my grandson’s birthday. I’d never miss it.” "I’m not talking to you, Dominique." Alec’s hard, cold stare was landing on Sophie, who tried uselessly to hide behind Dominique. "I don’t care what you do or don’t do with your life.” "Wow, son... what...” "Answer me, Sophie. What the
"I wanted to stay more in New York." Allegra grumbles when they both leave a taxi outside her London building. "I didn’t know anything I’d like.” "Mom has a lot of things to sort out around here. New York and everything you still want to know will be there when we get back.” "Alec, too, huh?” Inside the elevator, Evangeline looks at her daughter, who had a mischievous smile on her lips. She did not want to give any false hope to the girl, so she just limited herself to smiling and shaking her head. As soon as they both entered the apartment, Evangeline dropped her suitcase by the door and removed her shoes. "I’m going to my room!" Allegra says, already up the stairs with her belongings. "I have so many things to tell Olivia.” "Without much detail, Allegra. Our life is nobody’s business.” "Not even my own?” Evangeline feels that her heart will come out of her mouth, with the fright she took. She turned and found herself leaning against the door leading to the kitchen,
"This is so unfair! Why do I have to go to a stupid slumber party instead of grandpa’s?” "Do I really need to answer?” Allegra rolls her eyes and crosses her arms before her mother’s question. "Because I am a child, even if it almost always does not seem." she repeats the phrase spoken almost every day by Evangeline, when Allegra schisms in asking for something that is not appropriate for her age. "Did I mention it’s unfair?” "You love to go to Sabrina’s house and stay there all weekend. Grandpa’s party will only have old and boring people. I’m only going myself because it’s important to your grandfather.” Evangeline’s miniature puts her backpack on her back and grabs the camping tent, coming down the stairs behind her mother. "The cookies are warm." Evie says, opening one of the jars to smell the chocolate. "Sabrina’s mother should reach..." Evangeline’s cell phone rings, informing a new message. "Look... it must be her.” Evangeline escorts Allegra to the door and c
They stare at each other with a piercing look, their facial expressions tense and alert. Neither of them knows exactly how the other will act, but both are ready to defend themselves if necessary. The look of one is challenging and determined, while the look of the other is cautious and calculating. They watch each other closely, measuring each other’s intentions and behavior, looking for any sign of weakness or vulnerability. For a moment, silence hovers in the air as they face each other in a tense impasse. Evangeline looked at each other before rolling her eyes and slapping her lips. "You’re not my husband." she says to Jonah, who even takes her eyes off Alec. "We’re in the process of divorce. And you," she turns to Alec, who smiles. "You can wipe that smile off your face. You’re not my boyfriend. We’re still talking.” "So you’ve been texting with your ex?" Jonah asks, staring Evangeline. "Aren’t you ashamed to say that?” "Look here!" she lifts her finger at him, but
As soon as they reached the summit and both settled down, Alec and Evangeline agreed who would leave the bathroom first. Alec decides to do it and goes straight to the bar. When the redhead does the same, she faces the man who was at the bathroom door and gives him a bland smile. She couldn’t stop thinking that he knew exactly what had happened in that bathroom. After spending considerable time with Samuel and noticing that her almost ex-husband is no longer there, Evangeline makes a proposal to Alec. "Allegra will spend the weekend at a friend’s house... want to sleep in my apartment?” Alec smiled wide with that question. So after saying goodbye to Samuel, the two go to Evie’s car and she drives quickly to his building. Neither of them were able to wait for arrival in the room. The shoes and clothes began to be taken in the living room, so that the two already met naked, when they fell into bed. At every moment, they looked at each other with love and affection, their hearts
Alec’s cell phone alarm was set to wake up every day at seven in the morning. And as it was Sunday, hearing that noise, Evangeline grumbled for him to hang up and continue to sleep. Since his phone had been in his pants pocket, which was lying on the floor of his room, Alec had to get up to go there. When he opened his eye and sat down, he noticed a small figure beside the door, looking towards them with a lot of curiosity. "Evie?" Alec calls, pushing her slowly. "Evangeline?” "What do you want, Alec? Can’t find your phone?” "I think you’d better sit down.” Sleepily, the redhead lifts her body up and yawns, staring at Alec. As he stared forward, she followed his gaze and found Allegra there. "Daughter!" Evangeline gets up quickly and goes to the confused girl. "Hi... I..." she looks at Alec. "Get dressed! Come with me, Allegra.” Evangeline holds the girl’s arm and leads her to the room. "I can explain." she says, looking at her daughter. "What?” The woman blinks
When the moving truck stopped in front of Evangeline’s house, she came down and helped Allegra do the same, ready to give instructions where she wanted things to be placed. Before he even opened the door, his phone started vibrating in his pocket. It was more than one of several messages from Alec. The last one was audio. "It doesn’t make any sense for you not to stay at my house. Audrey already pissed me off, asking me what I’d done to make you not want to live with us." Evie rolls her eyes and puts her phone away again, finally opening the door. She decides to keep watching everything outside. Allegra sat on the curb, watching some random videos on the internet. "Evangeline?" She turns and finds Howard coming down from a car. "You’re here!” "He told you to come here? I won’t live in the mansion! Alec is impossible.” Howard laughs and shakes his head in negative. "Not really. Today is my day off. I came..." the driver looks sideways at Felippa’s house. "Felippa called me
