Chapter 168 - One Hundred And Sixty-eight

Here you go." She placed on the table and turned to look at him who had his back at her. He came to her immediately taking the glass and also said, "so what did Blake send you?"

"what?" She asked having not heard d him or acting so.

Taking a sip of the lemonade, he repeated, "Blake went you an email, did you not check it yet?" 

She shook her head and turned around to take her glass. "Nope, didn't have the time. Must be about the restaurant and stuff.." 

He raised a brow at that but don't comment on it. She did not want to tell him, fine. She shouldn't.

Didn't mean that blake would get to refuse him too. 

Also, he had something else to talk to her about. 

"My mother was asking for a Halloween party. Given, the prank she played, she knew better than to approach the topic that was every night so she was asking if you want it to do it sometime near. Don't worry I refused her on your behalf." 

Alexis frowned on that. "Why?"

"Why ever not?" He rebuked. "She pranked you to death." 

"She did." Alexis agreed. "But she did not hope for what length I got scared too. She had hoped for a quick scream and run whereas pretty much.." She shrugged and did not say anything further. 

He sipped on his drink and did not comment on the topics for some moments. He chose to stay silent and nodded a bit before talking. "Are you sure? She scared you so much. I would see the reason if you wanted to do nothing with her." 

"No. No. No." She immediately defended. "I like Isabelle. She is d a prank is not something I want to break apart from her on." 

"So you want to go to the party?" He asked with a sigh and looked tired. 

"Yes, I would love too." She smiled. "It would be great to go out again." 

He leaned closer to her. They were face to face and their sides were against the couch. "Are you sure that you want to go out in public? After all, happened with you? tool too if you want to stay home. I have no problem to stay with you." 

His concerned expression about her touched Alexis' heart. She wanted nothing more but to take away all these concerns and replace it will happiness.

"No, it's not that." She once again stood her ground. "I would love to go out and socialize with the people. Maybe you could show me off on your arm." She suggested. 

"Hmm," he hummed with mischievous eyes. "As what an escort or arm candy?"

She smacked his shoulder. "As your wife!" Making him laugh. 

"Seriously, I want to go." She repeated once more with a firm voice. 

He looked into her eyes, looking for any kind of nervous or underlying doubts. 

"Are you sure?" He asked again. "Be honest with me. If you feel anything other than comfortable, you would tell me."

"Yes, I will." He stressed on the words. "how does having our bat signal sound like?" 

"Shit." He said with a blank face, being brutally honest.

"I could show you my boobs?" She offered. 

He smirked. "In front of every millionaire and press member?" 

Caught in the act, she turned her face around and then muttered, "well maybe not." 

"What? Speak clearly, I did not hear you." He teased, trying to make her turn to face him but she stubbornly didn't. 

"Nothing. I aid forget about it." She finally turned to him. "Go have a shower." She patted his thigh. He gave a peck to her lips and then went to shower. 

As the door closed she immediately got up and talked to her phone. Opening it clic-

"Hey!" she hurriedly his the phone behind her and turned to Angelo who had just come out of the bathroom or so she hoped. If he had seen her get up and run to the phone like that as soon as he left you would automatically know that there was something wrong.

"Yes?" She asked him, being a little breathless about it. 

"if you want to go to the party you might want to decide what you want to wear soon."

"Okay, I got it." she nodded hurriedly ready to dismiss him and check her email.

He went back in and she turned around once again. 

She opened her male and searched for the name Blake. 

It was right on the top with a PDF attachment. 

Her hand hovered over the button. She was afraid of what had in store for her. Because if he was dead then she would just feel disappointed. But if he was alive then she would feel a lot of things in sat she would unravel huge secrets that she did not know existed. 

Open to the first and look at the first picture. 

the name Jaden Williams was attached to it but he looked in nothing like him. Hentirely different from him. From the very eye colour to the structure of his nose. 

She skipped him and hopped over to the other. He was not Jayden as well. even if Alexis has seen him more than five years ago she knew that if he had aged he would still look pretty familiar. And these people were nothing like him. 

She checked over the next two but did not find anything to her concern. This was it as she thought as she came to an end of the PDF. 

There were no more images and that meant just one thing. 

He was dead. He no longer existed in this world and whatever your whoever she had seen was not Jayden Williams. 

Her Jayden Williams. 

They were all others and hers was dead. 

With a sigh of relief, she fell on the bed. 

She was thankful that the dead had stayed dead and nothing would ever come back in her life again to cause problems.
