Alena hate fighting with her friends but she was sure everything's going to be well. Uno is Penelope's brother, so it's not like they could just be mad forever. But it wasn't his place to tell Edmund about it. Her husband is trying his best, and she won't let Uni hurt him even more.
Edmund wants to be better and if Uno can't see that, there's nothing she can do but get Edmund rid of him.
After leaving Uno's office, Alena went back to Edmund, to see if he was still awake. She walked in his room to see him sitting in the couch, his face in his hands.
She closed the door and he looked up so quickly that she thought he was going to break his neck. He looked at her for a moment, and then sighed in relief.
"I thought you. . .” He began talking but immediately stopped.
Alena looked at him, smiling. "What?" she asked so he can continue, but he just shook his head, and mentioned her to come over him. She approached him and
"Alena,” Avrielle called, walking in Alena's room. "There's someone downstairs for you," she said smiling."Okay. I will be there in a second," Alena replied, combing her hair and followed her sister. She walked down the stairs and went to the living room. She saw Uno there."Uno.”Uno turned around and smiled awkwardly. Alena walked up to him and had him a hug. "I'm glad you're here." She pulled away."Yeah, me either. Listen, Alena. I'm truly sorry. I was wrong." He sighed. "You're right. It wasn't my place to tell him about it,” he said sincerely."It's okay.” She smiled to him. "I’m sorry too for what I said the other day," she apologized.He shook his head. "You were right. . .I acted like a coward.” He smiled lightly. "But I promise I won't do anything like that again.”"Thank you,” she said."How is
6 MONTHS LATERALENA'S POV"She'so excited and nervous. She's like a little girl.” Avrielle laughed walking in my room.I laughed."That's so weird for us.” I shook my head as she sat down and started curling her hair while I was straightening mine.My parents are getting married today. Well, they were legally married but they never did it with a preacher. So, Willa wanted to do it so here we are. But they were only getting married in the garden because she also wanted to do it in the house. She didn't want something to formal."And some guests are already here.” She sighed. "I’m so glad Catherine is finally sleeping," she continued curling her hair.Catherine is her daughter. She gave birth months ago."Poor Mama. Only a couple of month and already complaining.” I pouted teasing he
"Seriously, move it. You can do better than that!" Edmund laughed as I just glared at him. I started walking even slower and he stopped raising an eyebrow at me."Don't give that look. It's way too early to be running." I narrowed my eyes at him."I told you I was picking you up at seven and I find you sleeping,” he said. "Why are you so grumpy?" He looked at me in a teasing way."Since you threw water on my face while I was dreaming about Theo James,” I said glaring at him as he narrowed his eyes at me. "Well, next time, you won't have another man in your dreams,” he said, this time glaring at me. I chuckled shaking my head. "Now move it!” He took my hand and started running again."Not so fast, Love,” I whined. "My legs are still asleep."He sighed before looking at me. I felt his hands on my waist and he threw me over h
I walked in the living room. Uno looked up at me, and sighed. "I came to apologise again for the other.” He ran a hand through his hair. "I just think you are making a big mistake by getting back to him," he said. "Alena, you do realize that you deserve better, right?"I fought the urge to roll my eyes. "I thought you came to apologise." I sighed. "Listen, I already know what you think, and like I said, you don't need to worry,” I said honestly."Well I think there's something to worry about.” He took a step closer to me but I took one back."How can I forget and make things better with him if you keep reminding me of the past?” I glared at him."Well, you shouldn't forget because it could happen again." He took a step closer, and I took one back again. "I'm not saying this because I hate him. I just want the best for you"."And he will give
I walked in the building. People greeted me as I walked straight to the elevator. Nothing has changed since the last time. I walked in the elevator and sighed before pressing the button. When it stopped, I walked out and made my way to his office.“Someone said cheerfully,” I chuckled and turned around. Edmund's assistantant pulled me into a quick hug and I smiled."It's been a while." I smiled and he nodded. "How is J?" I asked and he blushed lightly. "You're blushing. Looks like everything is good.” I smirked."Stop it, Mrs Cardinal." He smiled raising an eyebrow. "Are you here to see the Boss?" he asked.I rolled my eyes. "No. I'm here for grocery Shopping.” I smirked and he rolled his eyes."Boss is in his office. Yes, he is alone. And yes, he is not busy,” he said.I smiled and thanked him before walking to the office. I knocked and wallked in. He looked at me as I closed the door
"I can't believe Rio is getting married today,” Penelope yelled dramatically. "And you are married and pregnant!” she said pointing a finger at me. "And I broke up with Carl yesterday,” she said sitting down. "Why did I do that?" she asked me dramatically."Don't be such a drama queen," Rio smiled as Andi was doing his makeup."Shut the fuck up,” Penelope snapped again. "You're getting married. So shut up,” she pouted. "Why did I break up with Carl?""Oh my God, stop!' I laughed. "It's a happy day,” I smiled, and she glared at me. "By the way, will Uno be here?" I asked and she nodded."Yes. He said he would come. But you never know with him." Penelope sighed.I haven't seen Uno in a year. After he kissed me, we talked once on the phone and then it looked like he was avoiding me. For a whole year. He wasn't even there at my
"Where are you going?" Edmund asked as I walked to this desk."I told you I was going shopping for the baby with Penelope,” I said walking in front of him as he pulled me on his lap. He looked at my feet and I rolled my eyes."I’m wearing flats,” I said and he looked at me smiling in satisfaction. "Don't give me this look. It's only because we will be walking a lot,” I snapped and he smiled raising an eyebrow."Why so grumpy today?". He asked, kissing the base of my neck."I'm not grumpy. I’m just saying". I frowned.He chuckled. "Stop laughing at me. Seriously it's your fault. You put little you inside of me. So don't you dare laugh,” I snapped glaring at him and he chuckled even more. I groaned and went to get but he grabbed me pulling me back."Okay, I'm sorry.” He smiled but I didn't and
"So, are you telling Edmund about Irina?" Penelope asked as I parked the car in front of the restaurant.I nodded. "I think so,” I said, sighing.We got out of the car and walked to the entrance when I saw that Edmund's man was still in the car. I stopped and he looked at me with a confused face as he got out of the door."Is there something you need, Ma'am?". he asked walking up to me."Yes. Why are you staying in the car?" I asked."Well, I have a clear view inside from the car, Ma'am,” he said looking hesitant."Come eat with us,” I said and he was about to protest but I stopped him. "You have been walking for hours too. I know you must be hungry. Come on,” I offered turning back around."Ma'am, I don't think the boss will. . .” I cut him off."I am not leaving you the choice.” I smiled. "Now come on," I said and he foll
