Alex was curious about what Isabel wanted to discuss. Their relationship had soured since he reconnected with Lilian, who remained in his heart and mind. He longed to apologize to her for the past but hadn't found the opportunity, which had strained his feelings for Isabel even further, especially after their unsuccessful IVF attempts.
Isabel looked at him with annoyance; after all, he had been involved with her sister just as he had been with her while Lilian was still his wife.
Was he fated to live in such a mess? How could he be with two sisters? He felt ashamed of himself.
"What do you want to talk about?" Alex asked in a low voice, clearly eager to avoid wasting any more of his precious time.
