What the fu-
Okay what just happened.
I need a therapist! Please.
My mind was going crazy as I stared at the breakfast plate, even though my expression probably looked blank.
"Are you alright darling?" I heard my Father in law speak and I looked up realizing that his and all eyes were on me. I gave him a slight smile as I picked up my fork and used it to pick up the scrambled egg on my plate.
"Yes, thank you. I just didn't have the best sleep last night" I replied while making a lame excuse as I ate the scrambled eggs. He smiled back before standing up and walking out the dining room where everyone was talking to each other.
A minute later he came back out as I was a little less than halfway finished with my plate. He walked towards me and placed an iced coffee beside my plate.
"Here, maybe this will make you feel better." he said and walked back to his seat. I gave him a grateful smile as I took a sip before thanking him.
Once I finished my breakfast, I sipped the drink and just gave one worded answer when someone around the table asked me a question.
Suddenly I heard a loud sound of someone clearing their throat. Everyone's attention shifted toward Aleksei as my eyes also involuntarily snapped towards him.
"I would just like to announce that I will be flying Lydia out today in our private jet. Since we never had the opportunity to actually have a week-long honeymoon, I want to take her to Funafuti and spend all day on the island. We will be back by tonight." He said and immediately happiness was radiated out of everyone.
I just sat there staring at him in absolute disbelief.
I knew why he did this. He knows that if he just told me this privately, I would fight him back, but now that he announced it to everyone, I'm going to be surrounded and I cannot question any of his actions.
My disbelief suddenly turned into a glare as I thought of the many different ways I could kill him in his sleep.
He just smirked at me seeing my expression and stood up from his seat.
"You need to hurry up! Your husband is waiting for you" Isabella squealed excitedly as she tried to get me to fasten my pace. I could only mutter incoherent words under my breath and smile at her before standing up.
I picked up my plate and headed towards the kitchen where I insisted on washing my own dishes. I finished washing them and went ahead to try them before I heard a voice speak behind me.
"He forced you didn't he?" Alexander spoke up from behind me. I sighed and just continued drying off the plate causing him to chuckle.
"I'm not saying that it's good behavior but you should know that when a Romero wants something, they will get it one way or another. How do you think I married my love. I brought her to my dad and didn't tell her anything beforehand just throwing married into it forcing her. Was is toxic, yes. But i don't regret it" He said. I placed the place back in the cupboard before turning around to face him.
