ALEJANDROAlice wrapped her arms around me, refusing to let me go and I sighed before patting her back lightly to ease her mind so that she would finally let go of me. "It's okay Alice, I'll only be gone for two days," I reminded her but she still refused to let go of me.I just informed her that I was going on a trip and that I would be back in the next two days and her mood has changed since I told her. She didn't stop hanging around me and touching me at every chance that she got to show that she didn't want me to leave and I had to keep reminding her that I was only going to be gone for two days. "I know you're only going to be gone for two days but something about this trip doesn't feel right to me and I don't know why I feel like you should just send someone else to represent you instead of having to go by yourself. I'm more than certain that you can send someone else to represent you and it's not going to cost you anything," she repeated for the umpteenth time and I just don
Love, lies and, secrets 64. Making Memories
ALEJANDROI arrived at the villa a few minutes ago and just in case, I already informed my secretary to let Alice know that I was in Alaska for a business trip because I had the feeling that Alice might ask to confirm. I couldn't exactly disregard Alice's intelligence because she was quite observant and I wouldn't be surprised if she found something weird with my sudden trip and decided to find out for herself if I had gone on a business trip. I walked into the villa and let out a sigh at the different environment. It's been quite a while since I came here last and the last person that I was here with was Alice. I had made sure to get rid of everything that would make it obvious that Alice was the last person to visit because I didn't want Anna to get upset like she did last time. She had specifically warned me not to make her feel like a mistress or put her in any situation where she would feel like she was in second place and I couldn't help but think to myself, was Anna a mistr

ANNA"I'm so sorry babe, I didn't mean to upset you. I was just playing around and I don't think it would upset you so much," I pleaded guiltily, following behind Alejandro and hoping he would stop being upset with me. I didn't think that he was going to take my joke so personally and be this upset with me but to my surprise, he was a lot more displeased by my actions than I expected him to be and I couldn't help but feel bad because he hasn't spoken to me since we left the beach. "I didn't mean to upset you, Alejandro. I just thought it would be a funny prank and I apologise for doing what I did and for not thinking of how my actions were going to bother you. Can you just try to understand that I was just trying to have fun with you," I said, trying not to sound too defensive even though I felt like he was kind of overreacting. I honestly just wanted us to have fun and the prank was simply something I did spontaneously but the fact that he could not understand where I was coming f
Love, lies and, secrets 65. The phone call
ANNA "Thanks," I said to the waiter after she had served our food. Alejandro was being very cautious at the moment and he wasn't even being subtle about it. When we arrived at the restaurant that was located in a 5-star hotel, he immediately instructed the manager to take us to the secluded area that he had reserved and he was in such a hurry that I was worried at first. After thinking about it for a while, I understood why he was in such a hurry and I didn't blame him or see anything wrong with his actions. We couldn't exactly risk being seen together because he had told Alice that he had business to take care of in Alaska and I had told her that I had a trip to Ohio with one of the general managers. I certainly don't want a situation where someone would see us together and report back to Alice because I don't even know what I'm going to tell her should I find myself in that situation. I shoved the thought to the back of my mind when Alejandro offered to feed me and I took the

ANNAI wasn't able to get any sleep. I kept tossing and turning on my bed restlessly cause anytime I closed my eyes, I'm reminded of the pictures I had seen earlier today of Alejandro and me at the beach. I still couldn't believe that someone saw us and decided to take a picture and the mere thought of what the person could do with that picture scared me. Who could it be? How did they see us and what could this person want from me? Holly Andrew and I were very cautious because we didn't want to get caught so I didn't understand how we ended up getting caught and I also didn't understand what this person wanted and why they had sent me that picture. I couldn't help but be nervous and sleeping didn't even seem like an option to me right now because my thoughts were all over the place and I needed to clear my mind and put myself at ease before I'm able to get any sleep. I started to wonder what would happen should this person send the pictures to Alice. I was shaking until it dawned o
Love, lies and, secrets 67. I love you
ANNA "Why are you suddenly asking such a question?" he replied with a question. "I'm just asking because neither one of us has spoken about it. You mentioned that we'll keep doing this until one of us gets bored and the truth is, I don't see myself getting bored anytime soon," I told him honestly."The same way you don't see yourself getting bored anytime soon is the same way I don't see myself getting bored as well so, I don't think that it's something you have to worry about and I only said that because you kind of suggested that's what's going to happen eventually," he replied.I heaved a tired sigh. "I'm not saying that I don't trust you Alejandro but the truth is that even if you don't get bored, everything that we share is still going to come to an end and we're both going to go our separate ways. At the end of the day, all of this is only going to seem like a waste of time," I told him."I don't understand what you mean by that so, I'm going to have to ask you to elaborate o

ANNA"Welcome home, honey," Alice greeted Alejandro excitedly before running towards him and hugging him. I had returned home last night but Alejandro had stayed back and he chose to return home this morning instead. "Thanks, babe," he replied to her, hugging her back. "Darcy!" She called for the attention of the maid and quickly instructed her to take Alejandro's bags to their bedroom."I've missed you so much, sweetheart," she said in a childlike voice that made me roll my eyes mentally. Alejandro's eyes and I met for a few seconds but he quickly looked away and reverted his attention to his wife. After he had suddenly confessed to me that he loved me, things had become even more intense between us. The tension that we had between us before he said it completely disappeared and we ended up making love all through the night until the very next day. I also made him repeat himself quite a few times cause I couldn't get enough of it. "Well babe, it's a good thing that you're back
Love, lies and, secrets 69. The news
ANNA I had so many thoughts running through my mind right now but if there's one thing that I'm certain about, it's that I need to speak to Alejandro about this as soon as possible because I can't possibly keep it away from him for much longer. TO UNKNOWN NUMBER: you have no right to tell me what I can and can't do and if you wanted to expose me, you would have done it immediately without having to send me pictures first and threaten me like this. I know you want something, so you should tell me what it is you want. FROM UNKNOWN NUMBER: If I wanted something, I would have gone to Alejandro instead but it's fine. If by the end of today, you don't assure me that you'll stop messing around with your sister's husband, then, put in mind that I gave you a chance to do the right thing but you refused to take it. I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't bothered by his message cause I didn't even want to imagine these pictures getting to Alice. I can already envision the way she would react
