Alexander frowned as he stared at the announcement Beatrix made on her social media, tagging him as well. Happy to announce that my wedding has been rescheduled to the 27th of this month. With just two weeks to go, I cannot contain my excitement! His blood boiled in his veins at the fake announcement! As far as he remembered, he had severed all ties with her exactly ten days ago and gone off to Florida to see Ashton. With Stefan away on a trip and Beatrix’s threat looming over his head, he felt too claustrophobic in the city. He had to get out. His work was over at Rotterdams and they had released him from his position as CEO. With nothing to do, Alexander was too upset with his life. Apart from Stefan, Ashton was the only one who could comfort him. His phone was being tapped by a gang of specialized criminals whom Beatrix might have contacted to harm Eva. The cops retained the phone to get to the gang, since they were the ones to have installed the Spyware app on his phone. Alexan
Alexander disconnected the call from his dad and seethed with fury. Alyssa was back from Singapore and his dad was going over to the airport to pick her up. He unlocked his phone and rechecked the article which made his blood boil with fury.Alliance between Titans!The article explained how Nicholas Donnelly and Alexander Van Every were now related because of Nicholas’s relationship with Alyssa Van Every. It also explained how two people in love were setting relationship goals for others on their trip to Singapore. There were pictures of them together that angered Alexander even more. How could she choose Nicholas Donnelly when she knew he was the enemy? Couldn’t she realize that this was a game for Nicholas to get even with him? The moment he won, he would dump Alyssa like trash. He was just using her. Alexander swore to go over and drill some sense in her head. He drove over to his parents’ house for dinner, since Alyssa was staying there after their dad sold off her apartment. Hi
The next day Mr. Strasbourg called Alexander since he was facing some problems. Alexander reluctantly went over to help him out but was too disturbed to do anything much. After guiding Mr. Strasbourg's PA, Marco, he drove over to his penthouse to pack himself a few essentials, eager to escape everything. With his mind in a state of unrest, he needed to be alone for a few days. However, as bad luck would have it, he met a furious Lucas and Marcus on his way out. “How dare you injure Nick? You could have just threatened him instead of attempting to kill him. Thank your lucky stars that we didn’t report you to the cops because of the childhood friendship we once shared,” gritted out Lucas. “He provoked me,” said Alexander, but Marcus wasn’t in any mood to listen. They immediately started attacking him while he fought back. Afterwards, they left, satisfied at having busted his lips, and injured him similarly to their brother. Alexander slumped into his car and drove towards the east co
After duty, Eva drove over to Lucas’s granny’s house, where Sienna was staying over. They welcomed her with open arms. With her delivery date just around the corner, Sienna was always breathless, but there was a glow of happiness about her. Eva envied her a little since she couldn’t ever have what Sienna did, a happily ever after with the father of her child. “What a surprise, Eva! Congratulations!” said Sienna with an incredulous look in her eyes. It was clear she was bursting with curiosity to know about her and Alexander. “Thanks. So, be free on the 26th. Don’t deliver Adrian on my wedding day!” she warned her friend. Lucas’s granny and mom chuckled and came forward to congratulate her. “You can’t control that! Adrian will push whenever he is in the mood!” said granny and they laughed. “That’s true. Anyway, I want you all to come over. I don’t have any family attending.”“Sure we will dear but I thought you liked Alexander!” said Claudia Donnelly, looking confused. Eva gaped at
The next evening after duty, Eva was surprised to see her aunt Claudia at Maxwell’s house, busy chatting with his family members. “Here she comes at last! Have you submitted your leave application Eva?” she asked and Eva nodded. “Yes, aunt Claudia! Alyssa and I are planning to take five days' leave from Wednesday.” “That’s good! You need to rest before your big day. Your aunt and I were planning to host a bridal shower party for you. When are your friends coming over?” asked Maxwell’s mom. “Sienna and Alyssa are here. Skylar will come over on Wednesday and I don’t know about Hayley and Ashton.” Aunt Claudia looked at her nervously, wanting to know why she was keen on inviting Ashton but couldn’t ask in front of Maxwell’s family. “They should have come over earlier to help the girls here,” said aunt Gloria. “Sienna is in her final trimester. Alyssa has also applied for leave. She should be here by tomorrow night. Everything happened so suddenly that the others can’t make it here b
Unable to get up, Eva closed her eyes to get a grip on her swooning head. Since morning she had been feeling drained up and more so after the bout of nausea that hit her hard this morning. After being busy the day before with salon visits, bank visits, and so on, she had escaped Alyssa’s curiosity but not for long. She would soon know that Eva was pregnant, that too with Alexander’s baby. Eva couldn’t imagine what her reaction would be. Ever since Alyssa returned from Singapore, they hadn’t been able to catch up much on each other’s lives. Now that she was living with them, she would definitely find out about her pregnancy and the reason for her hurried wedding to Maxwell. Maxwell’s mom came rushing into the room after Kendall informed her about Eva’s condition. “How did your condition deteriorate, Eva? You’re looking very pale.” Aunt Gloria too followed her to check and shook her head with concern.“I think she needs to see her doctor.” “I’ll be fine if I sleep a little, aunt Glori
After Alyssa left, Eva had a very restless night. Unable to sleep, she couldn’t help but repent her hasty decision to marry Maxwell. If Alexander wasn’t marrying anyone, then she should have waited for him to make a move. With Maxwell determined to have a normal marital relationship with her, she was now having second thoughts about the whole thing, although it was too late. How could she announce to Maxwell’s family that she wanted to cancel the wedding?Maxwell had been ignoring her since the argument in the morning, and Eva was dying to break off with him. If she had a say, she would have gone back to her apartment, away from everything.The next morning, she felt even more haggard with the sleeplessness taking a toll on her health. The bridal shower party was at 6 o’clock in the evening and she had the whole day to catch up on her sleep. With everyone busy with last-minute preparations, no one disturbed her. Alyssa was busy shopping with Skylar and Hayley, who had come over to att
Aunt Claudia arrived with a beaming Sienna and Alexia, who was Lucas’s child from his previous marriage. “Where’s Alyssa?” she asked on seeing Hayley and Skylar chatting with Kendall and Gabriella. Not knowing that Alyssa had been abducted by none other than aunt Claudia’s youngest son, Eva shrugged, looking clueless. “I haven’t seen her since she went to the washroom.” “This is so strange. I’ll just ask around,” she said, walking away.Sienna sat down with Eva and leaned in towards her. “Nicholas has abducted Alyssa to a secluded island to clear all their misunderstandings once and for all. There’s no point looking for her. She won’t return soon. He has asked me to announce it only after the wedding!” whispered Sienna, and Eva’s eyes widened with shock.“Oh, my God! I needed her with me now. Why did Nicholas have to do it now?” asked Eva with dismay. “It might have something to do with Maxwell. He came over last night to talk to Nicholas. He might have stuffed Nicholas’s brain wit
