Her words seem to irritate Alexia, she didn’t want to stay and she wanted to leave but what Cecelia said made her think twice. She wasn’t going to leave for been told to but she was going to leave when she wanted to. And so, she says to them. “What if I have something important to be here for? I came to write a chapter of your destiny and mine. Maybe we all might remember this day for the rest of our lives.”She looked at Cecelia as she spoke and she sees that, the palm print on her face was still visible. Her words make Cecelia furious and she moves towards her, but Rachel steps forward to block her sight before she could say anything. Rachel looks at Alexia and smiles gently and then she says to her. “Miss Alexia, what can we do for you?”No one would be angry when the person is speaking to a smiling person. And so, looking at her smiling face, Alexia couldn’t get mad with a smile like that. She smiled back at her and responds, “Miss Rachel, you want me to come over, don’t you?”She
Alexia hears his words and her glare grew wide and low then a sneer appears in her face. It turns into a sneaky smile. Everyone could see the changes in her expression and they could only imagine what she was thinking about. Edward didn’t like Alexia’s gaze, which made him frown.Alexia stopped sneering and looked at him expressionlessly. “You put in so much effort for Miss Rachel. Since that’s the case, I’ll help you. For old times sake okay?”As Alexia spoke, she walked past him and left the hotel room.Seeing Edward’s arrival, Cecelia felt a little more confident. Looking at Alexia’s back, she couldn’t help complaining, “Is she crazy? Why did she suddenly come over to say such things? Weird.”However, no one echoed Cecelia's words.Rachel watched Alexia leave in anger she frowns and walks up to Edward, looking guilty and worried. “Ed, Miss Alexia doesn’t seem well. Aren’t you going after her?”Hearing her words, Edward looked down at her, responds to her, “We’re divorced, are you e
As soon as Edward and Rachel walked out of the elevator, they heard Alexia’s words. Edward’s face darkens, he felt like he knew something like that could happen. Subconsciously, he wanted to pull Rachel back into the lift. For some reason, he didn’t want the reporters to take photos of her.It wasn’t that he didn’t want her to be exposed, but he just didn’t want her to be labeled as his new lover. He would have to be responsible for that title or uproot another scandal.As soon as Edward grabbed Rachel’s hand, Damon adds, “Look, it’s Mr. Frank’s old and new love.”It wasn’t a long walk from the elevator to the doorway and the words of Damon could be heard clearly by them. And Edward could sense the sarcastic tone if DamonA swarm of reporters rushed over and Edward turns around and wanted to leave, but the elevator door behind him had been closed.Rachel glances at Alexia, who was not far away, smiling slightly. She felt happy about the results of Alexia’s anger. When she looked at Ed
Alexia didn’t walk very fast, so Damon caught up with her soon. He tilted his head to look at her and asked her with a faint smile, “Feeling better?”Alexia tilts her head and glances better after hearing his words. She laughs out and says to him, “It wasn’t that bad before.”It was just that she could not swallow her anger and who wouldn’t be angry if after divorce, they find out the person he or she married did that as a cover up for his true love? Her mind felt uncomfortable and she felt used but she wasn’t feeling that bad for her to be sad.Before she left, Edward looked into her eyes, which delighted her. After several years of marriage and he had never looked at her. In the Franks villa, he would make her apologize whenever she had some conflicts with Cecelia and Jane.He had always looked at her coldly, but she sensed the hatred in his eyes just now. As soon as Alexia thought about it, she felt a faint sense of pleasure.She felt that she had changed. She used to convince hers
Things weren’t going well as I thought it would, I didn’t want to fight or hate her but she was pushing me to the thick wall. It was hurting in a way that I didn’t like but I couldn’t do anything about it.The elevator doors opened and I glanced at Rachel and said, “Go back.”After I finished speaking, I stood in the elevator, not intending to go out. I didn’t want to return to that room. That will be giving hopes to her and that wasn’t my intention.Rachel looked at me and pursed her lips. I believe she was upset about my attitude but there was nothing but my current expression to show him, her eyes waters slightly and she says to me, “Ed, there are so many reporters downstairs. Would you like to come in and sit for a while?”“There’s no need. You can go back.” I replied to her blankly with no emotions in my voice.The elevator doors were about to close when I reached out and pressed the door button.Cecelia glanced at me. Seeing my gloomy face, she knew she couldn’t convince me and
The elevator doors opened, and I walked out with a sullen face. My mood then was something not to joke about. There were several things running in my head and that meant that I was troubled which wasn’t something I was used to.Before the reporters left, they saw me and gathered around me again. However, I wasn’t about to let some amateurs smooch over me just because they thought they had gotten something out on me. A reporter was about to say something, but when he saw the expression on my face, the reporter shrank and did not dare to speak.I walked out of the hotel and walked towards my car. But when I saw the junk in front of me, I walked past it. I remembered Alexia’s words from ten minutes ago.At that time, I had walked out of the elevator. In the spacious hotel lobby not far away, Alexia said word by word to the reporter, “I don’t mean anything else. I only want to see what’s so good about the woman he has liked for years. I’ve seen it now. But I have to say I am prettier and
He drives faster back to the hotel than to how he had left. In a few minutes, Alexia sees the hotel in the glass in front of her and a sneaky smile appears on her face and turns to look at Damon and says to him,“It seems you are more of in a hurry than me. I don’t intend to get down when we get there but you can as your interest seems much higher than mine.”Damon shrugs and looks at her as if saying, can you blame me for that? Everyone wants to see their enemies suffer right before their eyes. It’s quite fun that way that just assuming their situations. He drives a little further and sees the car of Edward not parked too far from his. It’s parked on the left and they stop on the right.In the darkness, they see him leaning on the junk of a car and smoking while the air slowly lifts the smoke in the upwards. His hands are on his chest and his eyebrows are furrowed, they both look at each other and Alexia says to him with some excitement in her voice,“Let him know that we are here, h
When Chris drove to the place that I had mentioned, he saw me standing by his car and smoking.He thought I was getting impatient, so he quickly parked his car, opened the door, and got out of the car. He walked over and said, “Mr. Franks, I’ve contacted the towing company. They should be here soon.”Hearing his words, I looked up at him and put out the cigarette in his hand. Impatience was one thing and another was anger and frustration plus that ache. “Give me the car key.”Chris looked at me blankly did not dare to say anything. He quickly handed over the car key in his pocket to me. I got into the car. In less than two seconds, I left in his car. I had to leave the place that has turned into a hunting ground for me. It wasn’t I who was hunting but the opposite, I couldn’t get my head straight but one thing I knew for sure at the moment was to do something about the ache in my heart.Third Person POVHe stands by the roadside and looks at the back of his car. He feels that there wa
Not only the guests, even Damon and Edward were shocked. The other man went to Veronica and slid the wedding ring on her hand, she looked at the host and took the male wedding ring and slid it on his as well.Alexia didn't expect that Damon would come on stage. Days prior, she had told him not to act impulsively on the wedding day, but she didn't expect that Damon would still rush up.This was between her and the Franks family. Alexia didn't want to get Damon involved.Seeing him on the stage, Alexia called out to him in the chaos. "Damon."Her voice wasn't loud. The wedding that day was grand, but Alexia was standing under the stage. Before she even said a word, Damon had already seen her.Alexia was wearing a plain long dress that day. Her hair was tied up and she wore a pair of sunglasses.It was no wonder that no one noticed that Alexia was under the stage. Dressed like this, most of the guests thought that she was some celebrity.Damon quickly came to his senses. He turned around
The groom got ready much faster than the bride. After Edward finished his makeup, he went out to welcome the guests with Master Franks.When the guests saw Edward, although his expression was still as cold as ice, when they looked at him, it was obvious that he was in a good mood this day.At half past six, the wedding began as scheduled.As the groom, Edward was already backstage.After the host gave the opening speech, Edward was invited to the stage to share his love story.But everyone knew that Mr. Bo had always been a quiet and indifferent person. At first, the host was a little worried that Edward wouldn't answer at all.It turned out that he had worried for nothing.Although Edward's answer was not very exciting, it was still an answer."Mr. Frank, before I welcome the bride, I want to ask you a few questions first. I believe that everyone here is as curious as I am."As we all know, you and the bride have been married once. What exactly is the purpose of your marriage this ti
......Edward really didn't want to care about this wedding, because he clearly knew that this wedding was just for show.Be it him or Alexia, they were all tools for Master Franks to boost his reputation in exchange for benefits.It just so happened that he liked Alexia and wanted to remarry him, so he didn't say much.However, Master Franks' words changed Edward's mind.Did Alexia really go back to her parents in person the previous day just to persuade Mr. Ferrero to agree to the wedding?He thought of what happened that night. She was cold towards him as ever, as if she didn't want to get married to him at all.Edward had been feeling conflicted over the past few days. He even wanted to ask Alexia to call off the wedding.However, every time he felt the urge to do so, he couldn't help but look at Alexia's old messages telling him how much she loved him.Edward felt as if he had been trapped in a ball played on the field. He couldn't escape, nor did he know how.But now, he no long
He was taken aback by Alexia's question. Then he smiled and said, "Why? Do you think you've seen me before?""When I was 15, I passed out in an alley filled with gangsters from other universities. Before I lost consciousness, I faintly felt that a boy picked me up and sent me to the hospital."At this point, Alexia paused for a moment. "After I woke up, I only saw my parents beside my bed. But the uniform that the boy covered me with when he sent me to the hospital was still on me. There was a school tag inside, which said 'Edward'. I thought that the person who saved me was Edward. Eventually, I fell in love with him.""I've always thought that Edward was actually a gentle person. He's just cold on the outside but soft on the inside. But ever since that incident, I've never seen his gentle side again.""In the past few months, being with you has given me a feeling that I mistook the boy for someone else. You saved me, didn't you?"She didn't fall in love with Edward at first sight. S
Damon handed a suitcase to me and said. I lowered her head and looked at it. I was a little confused. And so, I asked, "What's this?""It's a money gift."Then, he placed the suitcase in my hands.Damon then loosened his grip. I felt the weight, so I subconsciously held the suitcase tightly and said, "What money gift?''Why are you giving me this for no reason at all?"Halfway through the sentence, I came to her senses. My heart beat faster as I asked, "Did Edward tell you?"There was no smile on his face and only darkness in his eyes. "Hmm."He answered and turned to leave.He walked very slowly, as if he was struggling with every step, but also as if he was waiting for something.I watched and felt that my eyes were burning. Before I could react, I had already opened my mouth. I called out to him subconsciously, "Damon."Hearing my voice, the man who had already walked to the corner stopped.For the first time, he didn't look back at me. He just turned his back to me and said, "If y
We were about to go home when we encountered three thugs. We walked to the car and saw them smoking by it. Damon wanted to move it and so, he approached them and said to themDo you mind moving from the car?But then it seemed that they had met bad company, one of them stepped forward and said to him,Dare to make us leave? I want to lean on your car for a moment. Dare you make me angry and you will go home with your balls in your hands.I realized that Damon was getting irritated and he wasn’t the only one. And so, I moved closer to him and said to him,Let’s not cause any commotion and leave from here.The other two looked at me and whistled and then said,You’ve gotten the hottest harlot for the night, do you mind borrowing her to us? We will…Before he could finish his words, they heard a bone crack and they saw Damon’s fist on the speaker’s cheek.And that was how it all began, three to one, I just couldn’t stand by and so, I joined him.Thirty minutes later, the police arrived a
I was in my office after returning from the dinner when Joanna presented a file to me. She said it concerned Charlotte who I thought I was done with. I wondered what that information was and so I looked through it. When I was done, I chuckled and said, "No wonder."No wonder Joanna couldn't find out anything about Charlotte connected to the Franks. It turned out that Edward had sent someone to clean up her mess.In the past few months, Edward's men had been watching Joanna's men.However, a few days ago, I had told Joanna not to look into Charlotte anymore. Edward's men probably thought that they finally stopped investigating. They didn't expect that Joanna would come back and find out about them.In my opinion, no matter how bad Edward was, he would never do such a shameless thing.However, it turned out that I didn't really know him.I had been hesitating about the wedding, but after finding out about this, I was clear about her decision.It was all thanks to Joanna that I found out
I made sure to take my time in the office, in fact I wanted to finish the day’s work before seeing him. But I thought about it that he might be feeling sore over for sitting at one place for two hours. My worry wasn’t on that one, he could fake collapsing and I didn’t want people talking about company with the Franks name attached and so I had to see him.I walked in with a faint smile on her face.Master Franks glanced at me and sat up on the chair. He then said with a pretentious smile which was very obvious. "Miss Alexia, you've been busy."I pretended that I couldn't hear the dissatisfaction in his words. And replied to him,"You're too kind, Master Franks. I've just taken over a project in another city, and I have a lot of things to do."I realized that talking to me was only pissing him off, so Master Franks decided not to argue with her. "Miss Alexia, you've worked hard. Shall we talk over lunch?""Okay."I responded and then led him out.As soon as they arrived, the dishes wer
Damon’s conclusion wasn’t his only, I knew that could happen. Jane had been punished by her family and so, without their permission, she couldn’t have attempted to hurt me once again. That family was that corrupt that, they didn’t mind using the only daughter of the family to commit bad deeds.I had had it to my neck and I couldn’t take it anymore, I had to do something which would put the franks family back in its place, off my back.I didn’t know what that could be but I began thinking about it when he visited once again. Damon had left and I was indoors browsing through the news about my so called pregnancy when I heard my door bell. I stood up and went to open up and there he was. I looked at him and thought of the information online and then asked him,“Are you here to verify that I am pregnant? If so, you should know that even if I am, you are not the father right?”Edward sighed before he replied to me, “It isn’t the reason that I am here. And I am sure that that you are not pr
