Love, lies and, secrets 112. The talk
ALICEI was feeling slightly nervous as I sat opposite Alejandro's brother, Anderson. I tried not to show that I was nervous because I didn't want him to think that I was a pushover and also because I don't want him to think that I'm afraid of him.The only reason I'm nervous is because I want our discussion to go very well because it would help my plan a lot if we could agree. "I don't like when people don't keep time and I'm very disappointed that you didn't keep to time, Miss," he remarked as soon as I was seated in front of him and for some reason, I wasn't even surprised by the rude tone that he used to speak to me."I also don't like it when people are very impatient and you seem very impatient right now which is quite disappointing," I retorted calmly, trying not to stoop to his level by being rude even though I was also returning the same energy. He chuckled. "Anyways, already here so how about we just get down to what we came here for since that's all that matters," he sta
Love, lies and, secrets 113. Hurt all over again
ALICE I was contemplating whether or not I should talk to him about what Alejandro did but merely thinking about it already made me upset and I could feel tears starting to form in my eyes. I didn't like the fact that I always got this weak whenever I tried to talk about the things that they did to me but I couldn't help it because having to remember that my sister betrayed me in the worst way possible always brought tears to my eyes no matter how much I tried to fight it. They broke and hurt me and looked me in the eyes every day and acted like nothing ever happened. I was glad that I succeeded in making them fight every day.Anna is already very suspicious of Alejandro's movement but Alejandro is very shameless and he denies every one of the accusations with so many lies. The plan that I had in mind was to have him get caught by her and on the same day, he's also going to find out that he has lost his position as CEO to the brother that he hates so much. I already explained how
Love, lies and, secrets 114. Continuous argument
ALEJANDROI entered the room after a long day at work to see Anna seated on the bed with her face down. I couldn't help but wonder what was going on with her cause it was surprising to see her seated with her head facing down like that. Anna and I haven't stopped arguing about a lot of things in the last couple of weeks and even though I have been denying her accusations, I knew deep down that the things that she was saying were true but I wasn't going to admit my mistake. I wouldn't say that I felt bad about the fact that I was lying to her because the truth remains that she and I were lovers only and I don't think I owe her any explanations at all. I'm surprised that she can't deal with the situation that she's in right now especially since she put Alice through the same situation and is now living as my wife even though she's not my wife. The thing about Freya was that she was different. I found myself being drawn to her and she didn't even have to do much to get me to be attr

ANNA"Are you sure you are alright?" Theodore asked me as I continuously kept itching my hair and my palm.Something odd was happening to me and I had no idea what was going on because it wasn't something that I'd experienced before. Lately, I sweat easily and every part of my body just keeps scratching me. Alejandro, who I expected to look out for me and who is also expected to have noticed that something was wrong with me, was too busy picking a fight with me every day and I was getting sick and tired of it already. Even though I kept arguing that I wasn't certain that he was cheating on me, I was hoping deep down that my argument was very wrong because it would break me to find out that he was cheating on me while I was in this condition. I'm aware that he sounds ridiculous and that I don't want him to cheat on me even when I know that it's only going to be karma coming back to pay me in my coin. Regardless of that, I was still hoping with everything that I heard that he wasn't
Love, lies and, secrets 116. No Remorse
KELVIN"Or maybe you don’t even have a heart to begin with and that should explain your heartless behaviour," I chided.I kept staring at her face to get a reaction from her and see if she was going to seem the least bit remorseful but to my surprise, she didn't seem to care about anything that I was saying and she looked completely by the words. The expressionless look on her face made me wonder if she has always been like this and I just didn't take notice of it. "Since you want to believe that I don't have a heart then go right ahead and believe whatever you want to believe but I'm just going to admit that I don't have one since that's what you want to hear. Now that you've heard what it is that you want to, please let me go and don't come after me. Is that clear?" she hissed and I sighed. "Why did you do it? What pushed you to become this kind of person? I asked and she scoffed. "Are you going to keep asking me this ridiculous question? If you're so curious to know what happen

KELVIN "Enough okay," she cuts me off."Alejandro and I clicked from the first time we met each other in Las Vegas and although it was supposed to end that night, fate just has its way of doing things and we met again but this time as my sister's husband," she explained and I listened attentively. I was listening to her because Alice has been looking forward to knowing the full story between them and now that I was listening to the story from Anna herself, I had every intention of going back to speak to Alice about the things that I heard. "Was that before your sister's wedding or after her wedding?" I asked."It was after her wedding but I didn’t know he was married. We met at a bar. We spoke and enjoyed each other’s company and had sex. It’s not my fault that it happened and he didn’t tell me he was married. I thought he was single so imagine how hurt and confused I was to be reintroduced to him as my sister's husband," she explained to me and I let out a frustrated sigh.I coul
Love, lies and, secrets 118. Refusal
ANNAI was breathing heavily as I stared at Kelvin who held back my hands when I tried to escape from him after trying to just get myself out of his questioning. I hated the fact that he came to me even when he knew that he wasn't going to try to understand me and was only going to keep antagonising me no matter what I said to him. I was already feeling sick and tired of having to explain myself to people and being made the guilty party when I had no control over my feelings and the situation. I pulled my hand away from his hold and I started to scratch my head. The itching started all over again and I was already feeling very uncomfortable and nervous that I'd start itching like a crazy woman in public.Kelvin looked at me from head to toe almost as if he was scrutinising me and I didn't feel comfortable that he was staring at me like that. I'm aware that he knows but I'm pregnant but I still didn't like the fact that he was looking at me like that and I was getting sick and tired
Love, lies and, secrets 119. Fake assurance
ANNA I sighed deeply as I walked out of the coffee shop. I needed that drink. I was still walking around casually because I didn't feel like going back home yet but then I spotted a familiar car that took me by surprise and it turned out to be Alejandro's car just as I suspected.I haven't been up to date with anything that Alejandro has been up to because I haven't been going to work and it's because we didn't want anyone to find out that I was pregnant and I could no longer hide it from people so I had to stay away from them so they don't question me about the father of my baby. I wondered what brought him all the way here and in the past, I would have known what he was doing here since he used to keep me up-to-date with his schedule but in the last few weeks, he hasn't told me anything concerning his whereabouts and that has been very disturbing for me because it was unusual.Since he no longer tells me what he does or how he spends his day, I figured that since I had the opportu
