"Does anyone else know?" Warren asks he parks the car in front of our mansion. He bought me a new phone. I tried to pay with my own card that Damien gave me but Warren refused.

I shake my head. "Ellie decided it would be better if we told Damien first and then he'd tell others." I liked that plan too. I don't want to have to tell my story to others. It's nerve-wracking.

Warren nodded his head deep in thoughts. "Is everything okay?" I ask and he gives me a small smile. "Of course." He gets out of the car and I do the same. "Hey I was coming to open the door for you." He complained.

"I have hands for a reason." I replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

"Where have you guys been?" Oliver asked as he saw us walking through the front door. I smiled at him and he did the same.

"Busy working. Something you won't understand." Oliver scoffed at Warren's tone. "Like you have to do so much for the day huh?"

"Try working with Damien and you tell me then." Oliver chuckled and came to give me a hug.

"I missed you." He mumbled and I awed at his cuteness. He's so adorable.

"I missed you too." Warren narrowed his eyes at me and I looked at him with a question in my eyes.

"What?"

"Nothing." He shook his head and literally had to pull Oliver away from me because he didn't want to. "Let me hug my sister." He whined.

"She's our sister and go study or something."  Warren waved his hand in disregard and Oliver frowned. "What? You're jealous? Don't tell me I'm right. Oh wait, I am." Oliver smirked looking between me and Warren.

I was busy trying to contain my laughter as Warren lunged at Oliver. "I'll leave you guys to it." I walked away hearing them arguing with each other.

They're such idiots sometimes.

"Dinner's ready." Oliver's voice jerks me out of my thoughts. I hate when I don't have anything interesting to do because then I think about stuff I don't want to think about.

"I'm coming." Oliver smiles and walks away. I wonder if Damien will be here. I don't think he came back yet but I was in my room ever since I got back so I can't be sure.

Even before I walked down the stairs I could hear Damon's voice which made me panick. He's here. He's going to eat with me. Why did Warren let him stay after he found out the truth?

"Hey grandma, would you mind to fasten your pace?" Jonathan mocked from behind me but I didn't have time to think about a comeback right now. He sidestepped me and walked down, followed by Caleb who gave me a look of concern.

"Are you okay?" He asked and his tone sounded genuine. Maybe he's not angry with me anymore, not that he had a reason in the first place. He was mad at his own imaginations.

I nodded my head. He seemed uncertain about my answer and wanted to ask something but he didn't. He nodded his head at me and walked down following his twin to the dining room.

I took a deep breath and managed to walk down the stairs. "Alex." I've never been happier to hear Ellie's voice before.

I sighed in relief and turned around to see her and Damien walking towards me. They probably just got back. Ellie smiled as she came to stand beside me.

"Are you okay?"

"I am now." I replied honestly.

I looked at Damien who had a guilty expression on his face. He couldn't even look at me in the eyes so I think he believes me now. Ellie did it. Maybe she actually made him see the truth.
