We got to the car in no time and Alex started driving to an unknown destination. I am curious to see what he has in mind for tonight.
“So Sweetheart what is you want to know about me?” Alex asked me suddenly and I don’t know what is the first thing I want to know.
“Why do you always send me white roses”
I hear myself saying. It’s not something personal and I do have other questions, but let’s start with an easy one.
Alex looks at me surprised, I don’t think that was something he ever thought I was going to ask him.
“Well because I read an article about you and you stated that white roses were your favorite flowers. I was trying to impress you, did that work?” He said smiling.
“Yeah actually it

Jo’s POV “ I really want to come with you, Sweetheart, but I promised myself that I would be a completely gentleman and take things slow.” Alex told me holding my hand. “Good night then” I said putting my innocent smile, after pecking his cheek. I was trying to hide my disappointment. Coming upstairs would have been the perfect ending for this amazing night. But who knows maybe it’s better this way. “Fuck my manners” Alex said grabbing my waist and forcing his lips on mine. A moan, I couldn’t hold, escaped from my throat making him smirk. “Let’s go” Alex added and I really don’t know if I can behave in the elevator. Too bad there are security cameras everywhere… Alex tighten his grip while I am

Jo’s POV I found Alex and Sam together in the kitchen. Alex was leading towards my kitchen counter with his arms across his chest, while Sam was saying something, all flustered, in the middle of the kitchen, but I couldn’t hear a thing. Time to time Alex was giving her killer looks but he didn’t say anything which made me more curious.I was wondering what they could argue about, as far as I knew they were not big fans to each other.“Hey, I was looking for you” I said smiling looking at Alex. I can see the shock on their face, definitely they were not expecting me. “What’s going on?” I asked but for some reason I don’t want to know the truth. “Sam and I were just talking&rd

Who does she think she is, just because we had some fun, I would run back to her arms? It’s not even that attractive or good in bed… I sighed pushing Ashley away.I pulled on my pants and I went running after Jo. How the hell I could be so stupid? Why I never thought that I could lose her?I should have known at some point Jo was going to catch me or find out I was sleeping around.I honestly thought that Sam was going to be the one to tell Jo about my extracurricular activities, but after the encounter at Olivia’s party I realized I was safe. Sam carried to much of Jo to break her heart.

Jo’s POV I woke up before sunrise just to look at my beautiful sleeping man. I can’t be more thankful, Alex gave me what I always wanted: a big loving family and four beautiful children. I place a small kiss on his face before slipping off his embrace. It’s weird how much I still love him. After all these years I love him more and more every day. I closed the door trying to not make too much noise and I headed to the kitchen. There were too many things to do and I wanted to go ahead and do them so I could spend time with my babies. I know they are all grown ups but I still see them as babies. I passed Sebastien's door and I stopped for a moment. I will never forget the moment I found him sleeping in the school shack almost frozen. He wrapped his hands around my neck and said “mommy you came”. Me and Alex fought the system and got him, I was about to go and bribe everyone just to give me Sebastien. In a way, Sebastien

I couldn’t let this happen, I couldn’t let Alex lose his career and have his name trashed.

Jo’s POV Two days have passed since I received the subpoena stating that I was a witness in an ongoing investigation on Alex Montgomery. After going to Alex’s office I told him that it was best not to see each other until we figured out what the investigation was about. At first Alex didn’t agree but he knew this was for the best. You can fight something you have no information about. This morning Damien called me and told me that some Court Officials came to Alex’s apartment and escorted to the City Court where the investigation took place. So here I was, checking my wristwatch while walking on the City Court hallways. I took a deep breath trying to calm my nerves. I already know what I have to do. I went to the restroom and washed my hands thoroughly like I always do, going through the plan I have in my head ma

I stepped inside the elevator and I could feel my heart skipping a beat.This last week was perfect. The wine party was a success and everyone who came high class, movie stars, singers, press enjoyed the wine. We ended up calling it “The Butterfly from Jackson vineyards” Alex was supportive, caring and everything I wanted. I sighed before entering Kat’s office and I saw her looking up surprised to see me.“Jo, so nice to see you. I heard the wine party was a hit, congrats” Kat said smiling.

Jo’s POV “Finally” I said, relieved to enter my room and remove my jacket. “My feet were killing me” I continued sitting down on my bed “Are you okay?” Alex uttered, bending down, removing my heels. He looked worried so I smiled trying not to think about my parents anymore. “Hmm mmm” I hummed relaxing under his touch. His hands were rubbing slowly my feet taking away the pain. “What happened earlier? I saw you talking with your parents” Alex asked me again. “Nothing, really. My parents apologized, they want us to be a family” I replied shrugging my shoulders. “How do you feel about that?” Alex’s eyes searched mine trying to figure out what was happening in my mind. “I don’t know,” I replied, exhausted, layi

I clenched my fists knowing this “talks” never end well and he will probably say something to annoy me.“I am here” Alex whispered, squeezing lightly my hand and I nodded. He always knew how to calm down my nerves.“Sure. We can talk in the office” I told my parents as I turned on my heels heading to my grandpa's old library room, which now serves as my office. I did minor work to update the room, but most of it still has grandpa print. Every time I go there it’s like I am going back to my childhood, where I was happy.I sighed because I know what’s going to happen next, I have been here a thousand times before. My paren

Dressed in his black suit with his black hair styled perfectly Alex looked at me like he was seeing me for the first time. In a way it actually was. Meeting him changed my life.
