It's been a week now, and Elena and her kids already arrived at Alex's mansion. She chuckled as there was no change, everything pretty much the same. The chandeliers, the sofas, every single thing was how she left it. She smiled seeing as a kids ran around chuckling as they look around the place. "Ok, stop running, alright." She had to caution. She averted her gaze from her kids toward Alex who was standing beside her as he held her hand with a smile on his face."I'm happy, Ella." He said, truthfully.Elena nodded and faced him. "I know. It's still weird but I'm happy too."He faced her and took her other hand. "So, which means you wouldn't mind marrying me again? To...to wear my ring back on your finger to shoo those horny boys away...right?"Elena chuckled. "Yeah, I wouldn't mind...""Why do I feel like there's a but coming?" He figured.She looked at him in admiration. "I just...I'm scared. What if the person who tried to break us apart finds out I'm back here?""Whatever plan the
Emily sighed, getting frustrated since she hasn't been able to find anything suspecting about Fiona. She kept someone on her tail to give her updates on where exactly Fiona goes apart from work and all she could get was the mall, grocery stores, convenience stores, and a bar, although she was told she frequented the bar at exactly four, so now she's outside her boutique shop waiting for when Fiona comes out so she can know who or what she always does in a bar.As she patiently waited for Fiona to come out, Alas she did. She made sure she was out of sight and watched as Fiona got into her car and drove off. Then she started her engine and followed covertly.They drove passed intersections til they got to very busy street where things are sold, and people walking around, it was noisy.They drove at a slow pace and cornered left, then Fiona pulled the car into a curb. She looked around causing Emily to bend out of sight and she watched as Fiona walked into an alleyway.She put her face c
Alex arrived at Elena's father's house and knocked on the door even though he knew he won't be getting any reply. He used the spare key he took from Elena which thankfully she still has and unlocked the door. It opened and he entered, locking it behind him.He looked around, and slid his hand on a table, seeing the dust on his hand which made it obvious that no one has been living in the house in a while. He walked up the stairs, toward the room that belongs to Elena's mother and opened it, thankful the door wasn't locked.He looked around, searching for anything he could get that could be of help to him. He walked toward her dressing table and opened the drawers, his brows furrowed as he realized her things were still intact. It made him wonder where she went without carrying anything that belongs to her.He picked a brush containing strands of her hair and put it in black nylon. He took a glance around the room one more time, sighed, and walked out.He came out of the house, locked
Elena woke up to another brand new day. Her eyes met the blinds of the window still closed, but there was still sun streaming a bit out of it. She sat up from the bed, looking at the time. It was eight in the morning.She sighed, knowing Alex already left for work again, taking the kids with him to their new school. Thankfully, those kids haven't caused any problems whatsoever.These days she's been finding it hard to catch him going to work, although he says he wakes her up before he goes but she just never remembers and she hated it.The doorknob clicked, causing her heart to skip a beat, then her brow raised as she saw Alex walking in with his face focused on his phone. He was dressed casually. White T-shirt and black trousers. It confused her.He looked away from his phone to see she was finally awake. "Hey, sleepy head. Good morning." He greeted her with a smile on his face and sat on the bed, facing her. "How was your sleep? I bet it was fine.""You're not dressed for work today
Elena came down the stairs, all dressed up to oversee what was going on in the new building she's gonna be starting her restaurant. It was perfect. She loved the area, the building, but then why wouldn't it be when it was Alex himself that found it?She was inwardly happy he was making do with his promises. Remembering then, when it felt like he could hit his chest and swore she was never gonna do anything relating to work. He didn't want her to be involved in things, or better yet, meet people, especially men. He just wanted her home.She begged and begged, but his words is always final. Nothing can change his mind when it's already stamped.But now, this time he doesn't have any choice but to adhere to her want. It made her happy to get what she wanted.Although, one thing still bothered her. It was what Alex told her about his mom not being her biological mom. He said, he just felt the need to find out due to her mom's behavior toward her and he got the truth.It baffled her. It g
Cora blinked at the unexpected information she received on the phone. Confusion clouded her whole being. It sounded too good to be true. "Are you serious about that?""Yeah, madam. I traced him and discovered he arrived in the country not too long ago."Cora furrowed her brows, curiosity peppered her forehead. "Did you get why?""Unfortunately, no I didn't. They said he came for business and that's it."Cora sighed shakily, trying to take it all in. "Wow. This is unbelievable. I wanna know where I can meet him.""Of course, I'll...""Who are you talking to?"Cora's heart fearfully skipped, and she immediately cut the call. She turned to look at the person who asked, giving her a straight unaffected face. "It's none of your business, Fiona."Fiona shrugged. "Indeed, it isn't. You just seem like someone who's hiding something."Cora gave her a short laugh. "You're just overthinking things. Why don't we get straight to why we're here.""You were the one delaying." Fiona countered and cat
Brian Jordan was found in a bar, brainstormed by incessant thought since he couldn't stop thinking about Elena. Her beauty, her eyes, her smile, everything about her reminded him of his wife. He just couldn't help it. It was like he was seeing another version of his wife. A woman he loved and still loves.Elena's resemblance to his wife was uncanny.He sighed and poured himself a glass of beer, taking a sip from it, his face contorted at the feeling he got as he gulped it.Since he couldn't stop thinking about her, he had to investigate her. To know who her family is. Her whole life. He had to be sure since his head couldn't stop conjuring different what-ifs about the fact that she could be related to him.He had to feed his mind the truth or the bitter truth. Hopefully, it's not just an imagination.But somehow, he knew that being here could be his best decision ever.His phone buzzed and he took it from the table he dropped it. He saw it was the private investigator he hired on Elen
BEW 23.Alex and Xander stood, facing each other beside the pool with no shirt on and only boxer shorts. Alex gave his head an exercise, Xander copied it and Alex nodded. "Okay, are you ready?" His voice sounded serious.Xander equally nodded with a serious expression. "Yes."Alex looked at Amy who stood as referee. "Are you ready too?"Amy nodded. "Yes, daddy."Alex looked back at Xander. "Bring it on." He dared."Alright, Fight!" Amy yelled in her tiny voice.And immediately, Xander gave a kick to Alex's leg with made him groan and bent the part of the leg a little. "Ow, ow, that hurts. So strong." His knees dropped to the ground.Then Xander flew on him while Alex's back landed on the ground in reaction with Xander on top of him. Alex was groaning and pretending to be in pain."One, two, three..." Amy counted. "Ring the bell!" Then she imitated the sound of a ringing bell which made Alex almost burst out laughing, but he had to keep his act well.Xander climbed on his head, jumping
