The Bad Part About Loving Her

Chapter 52

"Carter, the baby isn't yours, there is no baby".

*
Today would be the day that Alex and Carter and India and their lawyers would meet to reveal the mandatory lab results.

"You ready?". Carter came into the room.

Alex nodded.

"You always dressing up for some shit". He criticized.

"You want a wife who can dress right?". Alex put her hand on her hip.

"You right, you right". He agreed.

Alex picked up her purse and went toward Carter and put her hand in his. 

They walked down the steps and into the living room. Jordan snapped pictures of them.

"Aww you guys are so cute". She cooed.

Jordan handed Alex a duffle bag.

"What's that for?". Carter ointed to the bag.

Alex chuckled.

"You see baby, if this baby turns out to be yours, I'm gonna tear yo ass up". Alex threatened.

Carter looked very nervous now.

He looked to his brother.

"You wanted the fighter". He put his hands up.

Carter turned back around and headed to the front door.

Alex took Carter's hand and led him out of the door.

"You ready?". Alex asked.

Carter nodded.

Alex began to drive to the office of their lawyer Edwin Shire. He was the one who had helped Alex gain custody of Kayden from her Mother.

They arrived at the office hand in hand.

"Look at the couple of the hour". Edwin cheered.

"India and her lawyer are up in the conference room so we should just head on up". He motioned toward the elevator.

They all walked toward the elevator and Edwin pressed the button to go to the fifth floor.

"You were there when the lab ran the DNA right? Because it would be just like India to get some positive lab results if the baby wasn't mine". Carter asked nervously.

"No, however a judge appointed by me was there. If anything corrupt did go down, he could lose his job and go to jail". Edwin reassured Carter.

They arrived to the conference room and India was talking with her lawyer when she noticed who had arrived.

"Lets get this started". Edwin clapped his hands.

Alex sat across from India and Carter sat across from India's lawyer.

"Before I open my briefcase to reveal the results, India, is there something you need to say?". Edwin looked to India.

"Carter, the baby isn't yours, there is no baby". India smirked smugly.

No one said anything.

Then Carter stood abruptly.

"YOU FUCKING BITCH". He screamed.

Alex jumped up.

"YOU HAD ME THINKING I WAS FUCKING CRAZY MY FIANCE COULD HAVE LEFT ME, I THOUGHT I TOUCHED YOU". He yelled.

He flipped the table Alex tried to calm him down by squeezing his hand but he snatched it away. He threw the chair across the room causing India to scream.

Alex rushed toward him and cupped his face in her hands.

"Baby, look at me calm down". Alex searched his eyes for the Carter she knew.

"I TOLD YOU I DIDN'T FUCKING DO NOTHING WITH HER AND YOU DIDN'T FUCKING BELIEVE ME". He snatched her wrists away from his face.

He smashed the elevator button to go down.

Alex rushed after him, slipping into the elevator just as it was about to close.

"Carter please listen to me", Alex's voice was shaky, she had never seen Carter this angry.

"I don't wanna hear shit you have to say". He spat.

"Baby, please just listen to me". Alex cried.

"Fuck you Alex". He stared her in the eyes and walked out of the elevator.

Alex slid to the ground.

Of all her years, words had never hit her so hard. Especially coming from Carter. She had no one to blame but herself. He tried to tell her it wasn't his baby, but she didn't believe him.

Alex got up and went to the car. Carter was no where to be found. She got into the car. She drove home crying her eyes out. She arrived home. She went inside hurriedly hoping Carter had caught an Uber or a cab home.

She went into the front door and Jordan met her.

"Is it his?". She spoke quickly.

"There is no baby, it was all just a setup by India". Alex choked out.

"Then where is Carter?". Jordan frowned.

"He was livid because there was no baby and I didn't believe him when he told me he didn't touch her". Alex wiped her eyes.

"Well maybe he will show up later. Just give him time to cool off". Jordan tried to give Alex some advice.

"What if he takes back his proposal Jordan? What if this hurts us beyond repair?". Alex cried into Jordan's shirt.

Before Jordan could answer, Carter walked into the front door.

"Carter". Alex tried to talk to him but he sped past her.

Alex quickly followed behind him. He went to their room and changed into his pajamas.

"Carter can you please talk to me". Alex's voice sounded worn out.

He still remained silent. He got in bed and turned out the lights, leaving Alex in the dark. Numbly, she went to the bathroom and turned on the lights. She washed the running makeup off her face. Her eyes were bloodshot. She changed into her pajamas and got in bed, crying herself to sleep.
