Chapter 76 Engagement Party 5

I was happy Alex laughed, seeing him this happy somehow made me happy. He finally raised his head and turned into the Alex I know. "Where you this heartless from birth?" I asked him. "Hmm, infact my first kill was when I was five. I killed the man who almost killed my father!" He said nonchalantly.

I was agape, but Father is a calm person so why would he teach his son to be so cruel. "He had to make me that way cause of the world we live in!" Alex said, it was like he could read my mind. "Innocent people like you are protected from the dangers of this world. Men are greedy and selfish, they can do anything to get what they want. That's what the upper class is about!" He added.

"Most times when you're not tough enough, you get taken down. Money and luxuries cover the real danger behind being wealthy. I must say poor people are the the ones with peace of mind. The only thing they think about is how to become rich, right?" Alex continued.

"Mr Robert, the one who killed my great grandpa and grandfather, I killed him. He was my first kill. I killed him when he was about to kill my Father. I'm a killer Hazel, I've killed alot of people and that only make my enemies larger. Be careful cause you're now my wife, and my enemies will be after you!" He said as his lips curled into a grin.

I just couldn't tell if Alex was trying to scare me or if he was speaking the truth. I should have never asked, I cried inwardly. I emptied my glass of water to patch my dry throat. "You've been asking all the questions Hazel, it's time to ask mine!" He said and I gulped.

"Your parents are they really married?" Alex asked. "Yes!" Came my answer, "That's different from what I found out!" He murmured under his breath but somehow I could hear him. "What did you find out?" I asked, and he gave me an astonished look. "Your mum is not marr.......!" "Alex!" A familiar voice echoed in the room.

I frowned, I knew she saw us but pretended not to. "Hey!" Alex replied her. Berverly found her way here with a familiar figure. "Alex!" The girl greeted, she looks just like Berverly, I even thought they were twin. "Hello Maya!" Alex said to her. 'Maya' the name dawned on me, she's the one who got Carie and Lukas seperated. She is beautiful though, I thought "Well since we are already here!" Berverly picked up a chair and placed it close to Alex's then sat.

"Nice to see you again Hazel!" She said to me. I don't remember telling her my name, so how did she know?, I felt really uncomfortable with this sisters around. "Nice to see you too!" I faked smiled. Maya picked another chair and sat beside me, "Hello Hazel!" She said cutely, "Hello!" I responded.

"You know Alex, the waiters here refused us to get here even when I told them, I was your fiance!" Berverly said shamelessly. "Well, that's because you're not!" Alex said unhurriedly sipping his wine.

"How can you say that, you promised to get married to me once your contract with this stranger expires. No offense Hazel!" She said all innocently, like a wronged kid. She knew my name but decided to call me a stranger.

I felt hurt hearing this, which I don't know why when it's the obvious truth. Maya smiled watching her sister's act. "I don't remember saying that. But I remembered coming to this restaurant with one woman. You're interupting our date so please leave. We'd talk some other time!" Alex said. Berv and Maya were astonished by his attitude, even I was astonished too.

I thought he loves her, or did he forget my place already. Why has he been acting really strange lately? I thought randomly. Berverly got up immediately "you'd regret humiliating me before a nobody Alex!" Beverly said sternly and walked out. I looked at the man before me, he had his nonchalant expression on. Sometimes I wonder what goes on in that head of his.

After a while we left the restaurant without a word to each other. Thanks to the witches our dinner was ruined, we never even talked once, while we drove back home.

I got off the car when we arrived back at the mansion, not waiting for Alex to get down yet. I got into the bedroom and over to the bathroom to shower. I got changed into one of his many pijamas and walked into the room just to see Alex sitted on the bed staring at nothing but my boobs. I usually don't wear bras at night, so it kind of shakes when I'm walking.

But that's not enough reason to have this man look at me that way. "Alex stop staring at my...!" I was embarrassed talking about it. I got on the bed, laid with my back facing him, i shifted to the edge of the big bed, incase he does anything stupid. With time I slept off when Alex said nothing to me.
