FAZER LOGINMARKAfter Alexa had succeeded in shattering my heart all over again; something that no woman had ever done, she walked into the hospital.I thought I was heartbroken when Mona decided to go with her boyfriend over what we had back then in Toronto, but I realized that I wasn’t even heartbroken…just sad.This right here was the true heartbreak, and if I didn’t want to be a dad, this would have been the moment I would have turned around, gotten back into my car, and drove away and never looked back.But I didn’t.It was what Alexa wanted, but again, I wasn’t going to let her have it.I had already made up my mind to be here regardless of whatever she did or said, and I meant it.“You will have to develop a thick skin if you don’t want her to keep hurting you like this, Mark,” I told myself.And after that, I shook it off and followed her into the hospital, but something had shifted in my mind.Bringing up conversation about Mona made me realize that I couldn’t continue running away from
MARK“Why aren’t you talking, Mark, huh?” Alexa asked me, glaring at me. “Does she know you are here fighting to be where you are not wanted?” She asked further.Alexa was enraged, but was she also jealous? Or was it just my imaginations?Anyway, I couldn’t exactly tell and that wasn’t what was important right now. Unfortunately, I couldn’t answer her question.I didn’t even know that she was going to ask me something like this. She sounded like Vector for a minute, and somehow, it dawned on me that I wouldn’t be able to continue running from this. I would have to face it.But certainly not at this very moment.“I don’t want to talk about Mona,” I responded tightly.But of course, Alexa was too stubborn to drop the conversation.“Why not, Mark?” She asked me angrily.“Because I don’t want to talk about it and I am driving,” I responded even though the driving wasn’t going to prevent me from answering if it was something that I could answer.“Don’t give me that, Mark,” Alexa warned st
MARKAlexa was the most stubborn woman I knew, my goodness!Noelle already told me that she was broke, and that made me understand that that was the reason she wasn’t already looking for a lawyer to fight me. If she had the money, she would have fought tooth and nail to ensure that I never came anywhere close to them.For the life of me, I couldn’t understand why Alexa Silver hated me this much even to the point where she was willing to keep my child away from me. If I didn’t know about this until the child was born, I would have been pained because I would have missed moments like this…moments that could not be gotten back.And for that, I was slightly upset with Alexa.This was one of the times I was grateful for my money, power, and influence, otherwise, Alexa would have won.From the corner of my eye, I could see that she was still boiling with rage even as we made our way to the hospital. We were already five minutes late, but I tried to drive carefully because I didn’t want any
ALEXAI stood there, unable to move or speak for a few seconds because I was still in shock.Mark was holding the paper to me and the words were clear and bold. This meant that Mark Ronaldo would have unlimited access to my life and that of my child.My child…I never wanted him to be a part of it. He had created another life without me already. He was quick enough to move on to another woman, just as he had always done. Since I fell in love with Mark Ronaldo, he had done nothing but hurt me.“Alexa,” Mark called when I wasn’t saying anything.“Why would you do this?” I found myself asking him because I needed to know.“Because I want to be a part of my child’s life, Alexa,” Mark said, sounding surprised that I was asking that question.He sounded as though I should know that already.“No, Mark,” I countered, shaking my head.“Excuse me?” Mark was confused.“You are not doing this because you genuinely want to be in my child’s life,” I stated. “You are doing this because you want to
ALEXAI stared at the baby items in the room that they had been kept, unable to take my eyes off them.They were all beautiful.I didn’t know how Mark got to know exactly what I wanted, but nothing was missed, and without even checking through their prize tags, I knew that they were very expensive.For three days now, I had been coming right here, standing by the door, and staring at every item.I kept telling myself that it was time to start setting up the baby’s nursery, although not in this particular room, but I really couldn’t bring myself to doing it, and I couldn’t tell why.Maybe it was because each time I stared at the items as though I was seeing them for the very first time, I was reminded that they came from Mark Ronaldo.Shirley and Reyna’s presence helped me understand what Mark had done for me discreetly, and a part of me was grateful to him, but that didn’t mean that I wanted him in my child’s life. From the very moment I was told about the pregnancy, I never wanted h
MARKVector and I drove to Brent’s office because he was too busy to come down to my own office or house, and I didn’t mind.I hadn’t even really been to my company for some days now. The car drive was very silent and I felt as though Vector had something in his chest that he would like to say to me but wasn’t speaking.Since I started driving again, I had been using Cannon Dexter’s services less, but I still retained him just in case.“What is it?” I had to ask Vector because I wasn’t comfortable with the awkward silence, especially as I could feel that Brent had something he wanted to say to me.“Huh?” Vector asked dumbly.“You want to say something, Vector. Since I picked you up I have been having the feeling, so you might as well go ahead and say it,” I explained even though I felt as though Vector already heard and understood my question the first time.“I don’t have anything to say,” Vector lied.“Don’t play this game with me, Vector,” I warned, almost snapping. “If you knew yo
ALEXAI opened my eyes slowly, and the first thing I did was to look around, and almost immediately, I realized where I was.The bedroom.I sat up, wedging my weight on my elbows as I continued to look around.Familiarity settled in my chest, and pain overshadowed me.All the neglect, abandonment,
MARKI was stunned to speechlessness at Alexa’s response.Even though we didn’t see anything, it was obvious that either something had happened, or it had been about to, and she had to lie?“Are you sure, Miss Alexa?” The detective asked deeply.“Whatever it is, you can talk to the cops,” one of th
ALEXA“I cannot believe this,” my dad said through clenched teeth.Then he got up at the same time and went to the door, yanking it open to catch who was there, but there was no one there.However, we both knew what we heard.The person probably sensed that he or she had been discovered, and took t
ALEXA“I think it is good,” I lied.I chose not to go with my dad’s report because clearly, he wanted me to fire Matty Farm, hence, the reason he talked down on his effort, and the smile on Matty’s face told me that I made the right choice.My dad was trying every means possible to jeopardize every
