ALEXA

How could I have said no to Clara’s demands when her threats were real? How could I not bow to what she and Ivy wanted when everything my dad ever built was hanging on the line?

How couldn’t I be considerate?

I had agreed painfully, even though it shattered my heart, but I had hoped that Mark would not want Ivy anymore. At least, if he pushed her away, then it would no longer be any fault of mine.

“Let’s go to the hospital together and get this over and done with,” Clara had stated firmly.

I had swallowed hard and nodded.

Maybe I should have been bold enough to tell my dad the kind of woman Clara was, especially the first time I had found out that she was cruel and dangerous, but I just couldn’t. I was too scared and worried about my dad. He had been so lonely and unhappy, and being around Clara drove all that loneliness away.

How could I break his heart like that, but now, I was suffering the brunt of my decisions to stay quiet.

“I can’t wait to see Mark!” Ivy had squealed in d

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Worse Than I Thought

    ALEXA As much as I hated this, I had no other choice, but even walking into the boardroom again with my dad and seeing Mark Ronaldo’s face ignited the anger in me.Especially as seeing him brought the words back to my head.However, I had to keep my anger and bitterness aside just as I promised my dad that I would.We spent quite a while talking in that empty office, and he did have a hard time trying to convince me, but what broke my defense was when he broke down in tears.“This company is far gone, Alexa,” he had said, deeply sad and dejected. “It is worse than what you are even seeing, and I assure you that you cannot do it on your own, especially with your brand that you also have to run. You need someone, Alexa, and the only person I can trust that will not steal from us is Mark Ronaldo. I mean, if you don’t believe me, isn’t this empty office space enough reason for you?” He had asked me deeply.That was when I had realized that truly, this was an office that was supposed to b

    MARK“I don’t think this is going to work,” I said to Mr. Silver’s lawyer.First of all, Alexa’s explosion had taken me by utter surprise. Granted, we weren’t particularly a fan of each other, and I knew that.Heck, I didn’t even plan to ever set eyes on her again, and I was only seated here because of Mr. Silver and what he claimed I owed him, otherwise, I would have absolutely nothing to do with Alexa Silver.But that hostility and venom in her eyes were something I had never seen in her before.I had seen all shades of annoyance and reactions based off of anger, especially since after our divorce, but never this, and I wondered what I could have done that made her to react that way. If I could act cordial and composed in a formal gathering such as this, why couldn’t she?“Why would you think so?” He asked me.I was surprised that he would be asking me that kind of question.“Did you not see her reaction or are you just pretending to ignore it?” I asked the lawyer.The man was exces

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Not A Chance!

    ALEXA“What is he doing here?” I asked hotly again when I didn’t get the response I was looking for.“Alexa, please, can you sit down for a bit?” My dad asked me politely, but I exploded hotly.“I am not sitting down until he leaves!” I bellowed.The hatred I felt deep inside of my reverberated in my eyes, so much so that it made my dad and his lawyer worried. As for Mark, I didn’t even bother to look at him, because I didn’t want to see what his reaction to my outburst was, and more than that, I didn’t even want to set eyes on him.The words he said to Donald came into my head again, infuriating me even more.“Alexa,” my dad called gently.“No, dad!” I yelled, not bothering with the fact that I was sounding disrespectful to my dad in the presence of two other men. “Tell him to leave right now!” I barked louder.I couldn’t even bring myself to mention Mark’s name; that was how bitter and infuriated I was.They were all quiet, watching me with worry in my eyes, as though I was crazy or

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Moving On

    ALEXAI could barely stop thinking about those words long after Donald left.How could Mark say something like that about me? Like I was a cheap whore he could pass around easily. I had always known that Mark never loved me, but did he have to be so condescending and humiliating. Even if I was in doubt before, that statement was all I needed to know that not only did Mark not love me, he didn’t even want me.“Alexa?” Noelle called worriedly.“Yes,” I responded, snapping out of my thought.“Are you okay?” Noelle asked.“Yes, I am,” I answered.“Are you sure?” She questioned deeply.“Yes, why do you ask?” I asked Noelle.“You have tears in your eyes, Alexa, and since Donald left, you have been lost in thought,” Noelle observed.“I am fine,” I lied, blinking back tears that I didn’t even notice were there to begin with.Gosh, why was I even feeling horrible over this?I already knew this from the very beginning. All Mark’s actions had done nothing but told me just how much he didn’t giv

    ALEXA“What do you think, Alexa?” Noelle asked me.“About what?” I asked, pretending not to understand the question she was asking.I already made payment, and today, we were back to the property to supervise the decoration and set up of our equipment.“Come on, Alexa, stop acting dumb,” Noelle said.“I am not acting dumb, Noelle. I am simply concentrating on the job that is being done, and that is what you should also be doing,” I said to her.“We aren’t even the ones getting it done, so please,” Noelle countered.“But paying close attention is why we are here. How would we spot any errors if you and I are talking?” I asked Noelle.“You are just trying to avoid this particular topic, and you have been doing it since yesterday. You were free from me because you spent the night at your apartment, but I will not allow you go scot free again today,” Noelle said. “We are talking about it and that is final,” she declared.I almost forgot that Noelle had a degree in pushing for answers and

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Turbulent Night

    MARKI walked into a grilling store ready to have a great time all by myself.It had been way too long since I went out alone or even ate out. Since the coma, I had been on strict diet, which had really prevented me from exploring foods from restaurants and cafés, but today, I wanted to take the risk, and the moment I walked into the grilling store, I knew that it was worth it.The pleasing aroma drifted into my nostrils and I quickly took a seat at one of the tables.“Welcome to our grilling store, sir,” the server, a sweet young lady, said in a cherry-like voice. She was holding a tablet which I believed was used to take the orders of customers who came into the store.“What’s your name and what can we offer you?” She asked.It didn’t bother me much that she wasn’t quite familiar with my face, being that I was influential in the city. I just wanted to have a good time and a full stomach, so I didn’t quite allow it to bother me.“My name is Mark Ronaldo,” I told her.There still was
