All Chapters of Till Divorce Do Us Part: Chapter 321 - Chapter 330

MARKAfter Alexa left, it was as though she had dropped a bomb. The library was so quiet that if a pin had fallen to the ground, it would have echoed all through Mr. Porshia’s mansion.And it made me feel slightly uncomfortable.In all honesty, it wasn’t just the silence that made me feel uncomfortable; it was Alexa’s confession. Never would I have imagined that anyone would have fallen in love with me that deeply, and I never knew. I began to think of all the times I have flaunted Ivy because I thought that she was the one, and even in Alexa’s presence.And oh, the damn proposal, twice!Alexa must have felt wounded and battered.One thing I had learned growing up, especially when I was in college was the fact that women were quite emotionally weaker than men. More than three times, some girls from college had been found in the bathroom tearing their lungs and bowling their eyes out in tears over a breakup meanwhile the ex-boyfriend was already out there having a lot of fun.I never

MARK“We will give it our best,” I assured Mr. Porshia. “With your help, of course,” I added.His warning was stern and deep. As for me, I really did not have a problem giving my very best, but my worry was Alexa. She hated me and could barely stand me, and after hearing her story, I couldn’t blame her, but I really hoped that she had realized now that this had gotten more serious and that she would need to put away whatever hatred she now had for me so that this could work.“About that, Mark,” Mr. Porshia said.“What about it?” Alexa asked worriedly.“Now that I have successfully handed you two over to Gregory, I would like to take my trip,” he said, and I could tell that Alexa was just as heartbroken and disappointed as I was.And Mr. Porshia noticed our mood.“Listen, I deeply apologize for this, but I really did put it away just so that I could be here and help you meet with Mr. Gregory before I leave. Mark, you already know that I had this all planned out before your call, and I

ALEXAI had to call Gina, and thankfully, she picked up almost immediately.“I got your text, Gina,” I said without wasting time.“I didn’t want to bother you with a call, just in case you are busy, that’s why I sent a text instead,” Gina said, sounding a little shaky.For a minute, I wondered if she was sounding shaky because of the tone of my voice or something else, because she sounded a little scared to me, or maybe it was the connection that was playing some tricks on me.“I am sorry for snapping,” I quickly apologized because I didn’t want her to feel scared around me.“No, you didn’t snap, Alexa,” she said.Now she sounded very sad and I knew for a fact that this time around, the connection wasn’t playing any dirty tricks on me.“What’s wrong, Gina?” I asked her, worried about her.“It’s nothing,” Gina said, and the moment the words came out of her mouth, I knew without a doubt that she was lying to me.“What did Donald send?” I asked her.One thing I had noticed about Gina was

ALEXAI had to take Mark’s offer because he was right; I needed to get thoughts of Donald and Noelle out of my head. Whatever was going on in Paris was not as important as my presence here in Toronto.“Is this inappropriate for where you want to take me?” I asked when Mark just kept staring at me after I came out of the bathroom.I had hastily grabbed my pair of denim shorts that were mid-thigh and a slightly transparent shirt that just suited perfectly…or at least, Eva had said that they would go just fine if paired together.“I didn’t ask where you were taking me because I didn’t want to…” I started to explain, but Mark cut me short.“It’s perfect, Alexa,” Mark said, his voice extremely husky.Why was his voice this husky?And why was my body reacting to the sound of it?“We can go now,” Mark said.Then he went to the door and opened it wide for me. It seemed like a real gentleman gesture, and I had to force myself not to think deeply about it. Mark was simply just opening the door;

MARKMuch to my pleasure, Alexa ended up enjoying the order which I chose for her. I wasn’t surprised because I had opted for the best, but then again, I had been worried about impressing her.Never in my entire existence had I ever wanted to please a woman this badly.We did spend some time at the café, and for the first time, Alexa and I talked without annoyance taking hold of our conversation.It was the best feeling in the world, especially all the times she giggled, or even allowed herself to laugh freely. There was just something about Alexa’s presence that made me wish that this moment wouldn’t end.When the time I had paid for the booth ended, I didn’t want to leave Alexa’s presence. More than that, I was worried that if I took Alexa back to the villa, she would become upset with me again. Spending more than two hours with Alexa and not seeing her anger was magic, and I didn’t want that to end.“Are you tired?” I asked Alexa as we walked out of the café, and I hoped that she w
