“What?” Alexis asked.“Think about it, if I tell everyone I have Bipolar disorder, Charles won't be able to threaten Emily anymore and I will be free from Allison.”“And your family?”“Don't worry, it is going to go well.” “How will you organize a press conference without Emily? And if she knows that you are doing a press conference because of that she won't let you.” “Yeah, I will lie to her, that should be good.” He said with a smile and Alexia sighed.“What if this doesn't work? What if everything goes wrong?” Alexia asked and he smiled.“I don't care.” He said and she glared at him.*******AT NIGHT Alex walked into Emily's room and smiled on seeing her going through her phone.“Emily.” He called and she glared at him.“There is something they call knocking, you know that right?” Emily asked and he smiled.“Sorry, I just wanted to ask you for a favor.” “What is that?” She asked as she went through her phone.“I want to do a press conference tomorrow.”“Why?” Emily asked and lo
Emily ran after Alex and Alexia and finally caught up with them when they were about to leave the building.“It was you right? You encouraged him to do this so the whole world can know you as his girlfriend right?” Emily asked Alexia angrily.“What? It wasn't me, I was against it but he won't listen.” “And you just had to go up there with him when you knew that was what he was going to say.” Emily yelled.“Stop yelling at her, this is not her fault, it was all me.” Alex said and Emily sighed angrily.“Do you have any idea what you have just done? You have just dragged our family's name into the mud, we are going to be disrespected and looked down on, we...”“Really? The family name? Is that all that matters?” Alex yelled at her and she rolled her eyes.“Guys, it is okay. You can yell at each other when we get home, it is not safe here.” Alexia said.“Will you shut the fuck up? You are worthless and you have nothing to lose in your life, that is why you think this is a minor issue.” E
Alexia sighed as she lay in her bed, she was so confused about what to do. She knew deep down she wasn't happy living in London but she is happy with Alex. She sighed again and ran her hands through her hair, she picked up her phone and decided to check what Alex's fans are saying.She smiled happily seeing positive comments and how most of his fans are protesting on raising awareness for Bipolar patients but every fan he has kept insulting his father. She scrolled through more comments and smiled at seeing how his fans were appreciating her, she suddenly frown on seeing some abusive comments about her. Some were calling her a gold digger, some said she knew about the disappearance in the first place.“What the fuck.” Alexia muttered. She scrolled through more of it and paused when she was a group of Alex's haters, they were protesting against Bipolar patients and how they should be sent to a mental hospital and not live among normal beings. They had a trending hashtag already, #figh
THE NEXT DAYAlex walked down the stairs alone and he hugged his mother immediately after he saw her in the living room, she smiled happily and hugged him back.“Hey Alex, how was your night?” “It was fine mum, yours?” He asked and pulled away from the hug.“Great.” She replied and he nodded.“Where is Emily? I really need to talk to her.”“Oh, she is in the dining room, where is your girlfriend?”“She is still asleep and I don't want to wake her up.” “Okay.” She replied and he nodded with a smile before walking to the dining room, he got there and met her having breakfast and at the same time, she was going through her phone.“Emily.” He called and sat beside her but she ignored him.“Okay, the silent treatment.” He muttered and started eating her food, she slowly turned to him and he winked at her.“What?” She asked.“Are you mad at me?”“What do you think?” She asked and he sighed.“Look at what everybody is saying about dad, he is losing a lot of money every second, I hate him b
After almost an hour of waiting, the doctor finally showed up and Alex’s mother watched with Alex as the doctor examined her.“Well she is just cold, it is nothing serious.” The doctor said with a smile and Alex sighed in relief.“Really? Are you sure doc?” Mrs. McCall asked.“Yes, hundred percent sure.” He replied.“Then why did she vomit?” “I just felt irritated ma’am, I have told you already.” Alexia said rolling her eyes and Alex creased her hand.“It is possible.” The doctor added.“Are you sure? If she is pregnant you don't have to hide it.” She said and the doctor laughed.“Jeez, this is so embarrassing.” Alexia muttered and rolled her eyes.“She is not pregnant ma’am, and here are the drugs you can use. You should be okay by tomorrow.” The doctor said and dropped them on her table, Alexia nodded and smile.“I will take my leave now.” The doctor announced and Alex nodded.“I will come with you.” Mrs. McCall said and they head towards the door.“Am not pregnant Mrs. McCall.” Al
Alexia and Alex didn't say a word to each other till dinner time, she was in her room all day and Alex was also in his room. It was finally dinner time and a maid walked in and informed her, she smiled at the maid and she walked out.Alexia sighed and ran her hands through her hair, she really just wants to be happy with Alex without all this drama. She stood up and changed to casual wear, she packed her hair into a bun and walked out of the room.She got to the living room and met everyone there, including Piper and her parents, the most interesting part is that she is sitting beside Alex. Alexia slowly sat beside Alex’s mother and she smiled at her.They all started eating and no one said a word to each other, everyone was tense and the silence made it a lot worse.Mr. Miller suddenly cleared his throat and all attention drifted to him.“So about the wedding... ““They are still teenagers, why don't they just agree and sign a contract.” Mrs. McCall cut Mr. Miller off and her husba
“Alex, what you said was wrong. That was really bad, no matter what happens, family comes first.” Alexia said as they got to his room. “I don't want to talk about it.”“You have to talk about it, why will you disrespect your family that way?”“So I should let them insult you?”“No, but you shouldn't have said all that.”“Shut up!” He suddenly yelled at her and she flinched.“Shut up, shut the hell up Alexia, I will do and say what I want.” He yelled and she flinched again.“Ugh.” He groaned and held his hair, he hit his head on the wall continuously till he burst into tears.“Alex.” Alexia called and moved towards him.“Don't come closer to me, don't touch me.” He cried and sat on the floor.“You guys are driving me crazy, I don't know what to do.” He cried and Alexia sighed.“Am sorry.” She muttered and moved closer to him, she slowly sat beside him and held his hand.“I don't care about all this Alexia, I don't want money, it is you I want. I just want to be with you.” He said and
THE NEXT DAY Alex walked down the stairs dressed in casual wear and Emily gave him a look.“It’s Monday if you don't know, why aren't you in your uniform?” Emily asked as she prepared for work.“I don't feel like going to school today.” He replied.“Why?”“Nothing. Is Charles still disturbing you?” He asked changing the topic.“Not really, he just apologized for blackmailing me and said he still loves me and I should give him a chance.”“Asshole.” Alex muttered and she chuckled.“Where is Alexia?” “She is still sleeping.” He replied and she nodded as she arranged some files into her bag.“Hmm, how are things going at the office?”“Rough but am trying to not make dad lose all of his investors.” “Can Miller actually buy all of dad’s companies?”“Well, yeah. Miller is the richest man in London, then dad and Charles's family is the third.” “Okay.” He replied and his mum walked down the stairs dressed like she was going for a hangout and Alex smiled.“Hey, guys.” She called.“Mum.” The
