Scarlett rolled her eyes as she turned around and headed towards the exit. Alex followed suit. Lucas snatched his arm from Hilda and went after her immediately.

"Scarlett!" He called out to her, making heads turn in his direction. He did not care at all as he sped off after her. She was about to get into the car that Alex had opened up for her before Lucas reached out and held her arm, turning her around forcefully.

"You're hurting me," she shrieked as she snatched her arm from him and massaged lightly. "Leave me alone," she said as she turned around to enter the car again. He shut it close.

"Just give me a chance to explain," he said. "It's not what you think," he added. Alex intervened just then. He had been quiet for a while now.

"She said you should leave her alone," Alex said as he came to stand in between them, giving her the chance to get into the car.

"You're in my way," Lucas said sternly to Alex, but the young man did not budge. The cameras were on them and it prevented hi

    Alex had barely spoken to Scarlett since they got home the previous night. He had gone straight to his bedroom and had a quick shower before he lay down to have a good night's rest. Scarlett had crawled up the bed in the middle of the night and lay beside him. He turned his back to her, rejecting her offer for a cuddle. She was not pleased with his attitude, but she understood where his anger sprung from.When she woke up in the morning, he had already gotten out of bed. She took out her nightgown jacket and placed it over her body."Mummy," she heard her son call out to her from the breakfast table. She walked down the stairs and went to where he was, planting a kiss on his forehead. She took the opportunity to peep outside. Alex's work car was still outside and she knew that he was still within the building.She went back upstairs and pressed her ears to the study door, and when she did not hear anything, she creaked open the door a little, but he was not there. She heard a white n

    It had been a few weeks and Alex had still not spoken to Scarlett. They went about like ordinary housemates, barely saying anything to one another.Contrary to her plan, Scarlett had not moved out. She had fully moved into his room with her belongings, arranging them in his closet, not minding if she was throwing herself at him. At this point, the only thing that mattered was regaining her friendship with him.When she slept in his room at night, he barely touched her. They were far apart and he would always turn his back on her. The few occasions he had paid attention to her was one time she had a nightmare. He had shaken her fervently and drew her close in his embrace, rocking her to quietness."It's okay, I'm here for you," he said to her reassuringly as he blew softly against her neck. She did not want to let go for a while and at some point, she thought they were having a moment.She reached out to kiss him but he pulled away."I guess that you are fine now," he said as he pulled

    Alex was distracted by the noise and turned around immediately. A small crowd was already gathering and he first looked to where Scarlett had been standing. She was not there.He headed towards the noise and there was Scarlett, soiled with wine from head to toe. His eyes widened in amazement and there was a tinge of amusement on his face.She looked up at him, her hair matted to her face and her eyes teary. She rushed out immediately as everybody gave her way. He went after her immediately and when they got outside, she was already flagging down a cab.He held her back from entering the taxi as she wanted to and held her to him even though she soiled his tux with the liquid on her."I will take you home if you want to go right away," he said to her, still holding her to him as she sobbed."Not after you just humiliated me in there," she said in an angry tone and snatched herself from his grip. Alex looked at her with a surprised expression on his face."I did not do that," he said in

    From what she remembers, she had never given out her number to Lucas and she knew immediately that Daphne was behind him. She wondered what else Daphne had spoken to him about.She did not reply to him after a few days, but he kept sending her messages every day since she would not take his calls. She had wanted a meeting with Daphne to discuss the recent development but she had traveled back for work. She had put forth several calls to her, but they were never answered. It always went to voicemail.One fateful afternoon, Daphne finally called."I think you should see Lucas," she said when they exchanged pleasantries."I don't know how Alex is going to take it," she said with a tinge of exasperation in her voice. "If you do not feel anything for Lucas, then I suggest that you let him know early enough so you don't break him again," Daphne's voice sounded a bit mean. She rarely sounded like that.At the end of the day, he was her brother and her only sibling. She had told her of what

    "If this is about my recent behavior, then I apologize," Alex began with dropped shoulders. There was the sadness in his voice again, the one Scarlett had feared would come up, but she would not let it tug at her this time."This is not about you at all," Scarlett said as she walked past him, leaving him standing there as though he had just lost a loved one. "Rose, I–""Scarlett," she interrupted him. "The name is Scarlett," she added, shutting him up once more. He watched her walk to the fridge and pour herself a glass of juice. He headed to the kitchen too and turned off the cooker."I'm moving out, but that does not mean that I don't care for dinner tonight," she said and took a long sip from her glass."What happened to you, Scarlett?" He asked, ignoring what she said. "You suddenly flare up easily at the slightest provocation," he said.It was not the same with her since Lucas had shown up back in her life. She hated that she could not blame Lucas for what had happened, even th

Luckily for them, Daphne had come with a car and they quickly got in. Danielle and George would find their way as they had come with their vehicle too.As they drove to the hospital, she suddenly remembered that her son was all alone in the house. She thought of what to do and called Alex immediately. He did not answer on the first ring and she decided to drop him a message.He called back almost immediately."What emergency are you talking about?" He asked her. "Are you sure you are okay? How is Jason doing?" He asked her. He was panicking and she knew that he was deeply concerned about them."I'm fine. I just need you to take care of Jason. He's home alone," she said to him. Without any further words, she hung up.She knew how he would feel if she told him t

    Scarlett was not sure of how to react when she saw Alex standing there, looking down at her with an unreadable expression in his eyes.She looked back at Daphne who had guilt written over her face. She had to be a snitch and rat her out to Alex. Scarlett shook her head at her in disappointment."You know you should have just told me you were here, right?" Alex began, still looking down at her. He was leaning against the doorframe and for a moment, she forgot that they were in the hospital. He looked deliciously good in that stance."I just didn't want you thinking that I left my son and you to come be with Lucas," she said. He smiled and looked at her with gentleness in his eyes."I would do the same if I heard that a loved one just had an accident," he said to her. "Besides, as much as I try to deny it, you are still his wife legally and I think you still feel something for him," he added. She shook her head but he looked at her reassuringly to tell her that it was fine.He stepped i

    Scarlett decided that it would be a good option for the entire crew to return to Santorini. She had cut short their trip the last time, and when she suggested it this time, Alex was in full support. They sent out invitations and made arrangements. Scarlett added George and Daniella to the list and after the entire planning, it looked so promising.Daphne and Nick arrived the night before the trip."Left for me, I would have suggested that you both went on your honeymoon alone but since you want us in it as well, I can't decline," Daphne said as she settled in Scarlett's room.They had agreed that Daphne would spend the night with Scarlett while Nick and his brother would share a room as well. "Let's just say I wanted to do it as compensation for cutting short the trip the other time, and we all deserve a break from the cruel life we have gotten over," Scarlett said. "That reminds me," Daphne said as she took out her makeup from the dresser with some wipes. "What did Lucas say to yo

    "If it's not the bride," Daphne began excitedly as she opened up the door and barged into the room where Scarlett was ready to get into her wedding dress."Daphne!" Scarlett called out as she went ahead to hug her best friend. "I thought you were not going to come anymore," she added. "Of course, you know that I will not miss your big day for anything," Daphne said. She had been a bit incapacitated the whole time of the preparations, because of the pregnancy and Nick had insisted that she stayed back and allowed the doctor to attend to her. Daniella had managed to squeeze out time out of her busy schedule and away from George who seemed obsessed with her every day. She saw the way they had their pictures all over social media, and they were equally successful chefs."Is Lucas coming?" Scarlett asked."I tried to talk to him, but he said he does not want to be here," Daphne replied."But he has signed the divorce papers already, right?" Scarlett asked. "I don't like the way he is ma

He had gone into hiding, away from his house and away from his office.When his parents finally decided to give him space, they went back to Singapore along with Nick and Daphne. They all had no idea that the incident would take a toll on him that much, and Scarlett seemed to think that he was overreacting, but she could not help but think that it was all her fault.She had finally gone to Africa for the contract, but every day, she kept thinking about Alex. Raymond had urged her to enjoy herself and do her job well, but she could not help it. She called him and sent him messages every day, but he would not answer or reply. She had made a call to his housekeeper who told her the exact time he usually came back to the house. She had told him that Alex now had empty beer and whiskey bottles in his study. Scarlett knew that he was not a drunk. He ba

    "What do you mean you would not carry out the procedure anymore?" Alex raged as he followed the doctor out of the surgical ward, alerting his family members.They rushed out immediately to see what was going on."Doctor Ezra, you have to give me a good explanation for all of these," he continued. The doctor stopped and turned around to face him."I think Scarlett and your mother would have a better explanation for this," he said. "I think that my work here is done," he added and walked away.Alex turned to his mother, not knowing what to expect."What is he talking about?" He asked her. His mother fidgeted a little before she finally looked up at him. "Scarlett would be in a better position to explain things to you," she said. "Can you all just stop pointing fingers and tell me what is going on?" He asked. His mother was silent. His father and Nick were as lost as he was as they were still trying to fathom what was going on, but grateful in their hearts that Alex was still alive.

    Alex stepped out of the ward and his father stood up immediately after he saw him. They stood and looked at each other for a while. There was no disappointed scowl on his face to suggest that he was angry. Instead, a beautiful smile was plastered to his face. He stretched out his hands just like he would do every day after work when they were little boys. Alex rushed at his father and engaged him in a big embrace. His father patted his back gently and Alex relaxed slowly. They soon sat down at a corner and his mother came to join them."Would you want anything to eat?" She asked her husband who looked up at her with a smile."Alex teaches us every day how to love," he said to her. "Our boy is so brave," he added as he smiled at her. "I don't want to be reminded further that my son is about to have his heart out and given to someone else," she said. "Where is Nick and Daphne?" Alex asked. He had not seen them since he came out. Just Lucas sat there with his face buried in his hand

    "Time for what exactly?" Lucas asked when he saw that he was the only person that did not know what was being discussed. Doctor Ezra looked back at him, but did not say anything to him, but turned around and left. Lady Abbott looked at her son Alex and tears welled up in her eyes. She went ahead to engage him in a long embrace. "Can someone tell me what is going on here?" Lucas asked again, spreading out his hands and looking around. "In case you have not noticed, Alex has decided to donate the heart for Scarlett's transplant," Daphne said to him. Lucas has become such a pain in the ass and she was equally getting irritated."What is that supposed to mean?" Alex asked with an amused expression. Daphne looked at him unbelievably. He ignored her and moved to where Alex was standing."You think that you are the hero, right?" He asked Alex. "You went behind my back to see the doctor and agree to the transplant?" He continued. "I simply did what had to be done," Alex said."But you d

    Alex rushed at her immediately while Nick picked up his phone immediately to call for help. Lucas turned on his phone too so he could make a quick call to Doctor Ezra about her current situation.If there was a right time to put aside their differences and work together, it had to be now. Nick looked at Daphne as he spoke to the pilot on the phone. He saw how she was visibly trembling and he knew she was highly terrified.He went over to where she was and put a hand around her in a comforting manner, rubbing her back gently in circles so she would calm down.Once she was calm, he held her close to him. "I am sorry about this but remember the doctor said panicking will increase your blood pressure, and it's not good for the baby," he said to her. She nodded and turned around to hug him.The medical team soon arrived with a travel bus and they collected an unconscious Scarlett immediately."I called Doctor Ezra and he said we need to bring her in immediately," Lucas said as they all fi

    Scarlett stretched out her hand and touched him lightly. She watched him try to put himself together properly before he turned around with a big feigned smile on his face."What are you doing out here?" He asked her calmly. "You know it's cold out here," he added.She rolled her eyes. She was tired of everyone knowing what was good for her and what was not. It was all driving her nuts and she wished that they would all just give her a break. It irritated her more because he seemed to be having his struggles but was still looking out for her like she was a priority."Why were you crying?" She asked him. He looked up at her sharply."I was not crying. I just have a cold and it has given me a runny nose, but—""Oh don't lie to me," Scarlett cautioned him. "I know what I heard."He was silent for a while as he avoided her eyes. Thoughts of what he would say to her rummaged through his mind. An idea soon occurred to him."It's about my company," he finally said. "I think we might be runni

    "What did you say to her in there?" Nick asked as he took Daphne back to where they were seated initially. "Maybe if you had not rushed in there like we were planning your murder, I would have had the chance to have even a normal conversation with her," Daphne said, sounding agitated."At the end of the day, Scarlett might probably start to request answers from you guys," she continued. "You are all doing a bad job at keeping a secret," she added. Just then, Scarlett passed by and went to take her seat. "Is everything okay?" She asked Lucas. "You all came to the restroom," she added in case they had not understood why she asked."We just wanted to make sure that you were doing great," Alex was the one that answered. He stood up afterward and headed out. If he had to lie to Scarlett one more time, he might as well end up spilling the beans.He had to walk away to prevent himself from saying anything. Nick excused himself and followed after his brother. They got into another compartm
