Chapter 26.1

Alex's POINT OF VIEW

What did that mean?

Did she really get so tired that she literally drove me out of our house?

I squeeze the remote control between my fingers, and then slam it to the ground in frustration.

She found out who Catherine really is and didn't take it well that I lied to her, but she exaggerated a lot.

After all, what happened with Catherine was not supposed to be new to her: she knows how I am and she has to accept me, exactly as I am forced to accept the fact that she has to work twenty-three hours a day!

I run my hand through my hair, looking at my watch.

It's already seven in the evening and there's no sign of Clara, which is why I'm really starting to worry that something has happened to her.

That woman is more dangerous than me when she gets angry: I take the keys from the dresser, and then open the door:

"Where are you going?" - Juliet's cold voice interrupts me.

«I'm going to Andrew's house, don't move from here.» - I warn her, still pissed for having caught her with a boy when I went to pick her up from school.

'I was expecting Clara .'- was the only thing she had the courage to say, as I glared at the child beside her and thought about how to insult Clara for keeping it from me.

But on my return home I noticed that she had not actually returned.

Despite the fact that getting jealous drives me crazy, I don't like the idea that she's sad because of me.

I can't go back in time and cancel what happened with Catherine, in fact, I would most likely do it again, but I didn't think she would react like that.

I feel like I'm dealing with a fucking immature girl!

I pick up the phone, then dial Andrew's number:

"Alex ..." -he starts to speak, but I go straight to the point:

"Send me John's number." - I end the call before he can even answer.

Surely John will be able to tell me where Clara is right now.

I wait nervously for Andrew's message before I turn on the car, but the content of the text relaxes me:

* Clara's at my house, asshole, she's ... *

Without reading the rest of it, I accelerate to his house, ready to face that fucking child!
