I can't even believe this, Alex can't live a minute without seeing me and he survived without me for five years? I can't believe that.” “Well you better believe it because it is true, Piper was there for him.” Mrs. McCall said and Alexia tried to say something but sighed.“You know what?

Do I look old to you?” Alexia snapped and the guy laughed.“Of course, you look like a teenager a bit but you are not and I am trying to show some respect. Am sorry I upset you.” The guy apologized and Alexia sighed.“It is fine, just give me your best alcohol.” She said and the guy looked at her confused.“Are you sure about that?”“Yes, I am.” The guy sighed and gave her the alcohol, she poured it into a cup and gulped it down immediately.

    “You don't know?” Alexia asked and he sighed.“Is it because she looks like me? Or is it because you are helping your family from becoming poor?
