Chapter 13

Air left her lungs for a quarter of second and she stood there in shock, "What?"

"Yeah."

She didn't feel the need to stay there any longer. She bolted towards Alex's cabin and entered without knocking. She saw him busy with two other men and all the three pair of eyes settled on her.

"Alex. Can I talk to you?" She didn't care if clients were sitting right in front of her.

"Excuse me, Mr. David, can you give us a moment?" Alex politely asked.

Both the men nodded and left without saying any further.

"Why did you fired Justin?" She shouted as soon as the door was shut and he raised an eyebrow.

"Huston? Well, he deserved it." He shrugged and she gasped.

"What do you mean by that? He is the one who deserves unlike you! He works for the company unlike you!" She shouted. Her words were harsh and she didn't care that she knew what Alex's situation was.

The company was forcefully thrown upon him and he had no interest whatsoever. Leaving his real passion for art he had been given this company thus the reason he never cared about it.

Her words hit him. How could she say those things even after knowing that he didn't do it wishfully. But she did say it for all that was going on in her mind was Justin being fired because she broke up with Alex. A part of her warned her because this was just not possible. She never told him about Justin but maybe her mind just wasn't in the right state.

After all, she lost the chance of telling him her feelings.

"Have you lost your mind? What are you saying?"

"I am saying what's the truth. Why did you fire him? Answer me!" Isabella replied.

"Then go and inquire about what happened last night then come to me and ask if that guy deserved it or not?" He seethed and she went quiet.

"What happened?"

"Have you seen your cabin?" He asked.

She didn't. The first thing she did was to check on him.

"It's all destroyed cause that guy was drunk as fuck yesterday. He left early without notice and came back in such a manner. He was trying to flirt with Julia and when she denied he got all angry shouting something rubbish and went to your cabin only to create havoc there. Be grateful I didn't press charges on him." He said and her eyes widen.

"No.. Why would he do that?"

"That's not a question I have an answer for Isabella." He shook his head.

"No! I know him Alex. He won't do anything like that."

"Why are you taking his side so much?" He asked in jealousy.

"I love him... I-I had to tell this to him. I-I lost the chance, Alex.." she murmured to herself and he glared at her.

She was in a relationship with him. She loves him.

"He. He was the reason you left me. Didn't you?"

"Yes, and I am sorry."

"What were you even thinking? He doesn't deserve you." He replied.

He came closer to her and wrapped an arm around her waist.

"What are you doing? Leave me." She tried to wriggle out but his hold got tighter.

"Shhh... I've got you." He rested his head against her and took a breath, "Come back to me Bella, we were perfect together. We can end this open relationship and start anew. I'll be yours and fully yours. Don't you see we're made for each other."

He started to lean down and she protested, "This is wrong."

"Tell if this feels wrong, I'll stop." He assured and crashed his lips with hers.

He slowly moved them on hers and she tried to push him, he rested his hands on her to prevent her from pushing him and moved his lips faster. He was about to deepen the kiss when the door opened and they pulled apart.

They turned their head to find Justin staring at them.

"As expected Ms. Smith." He laughed and turned towards Alex, "Here's my resignation letter Mr. Lawrence and I am really sorry for the trouble I caused yesterday."

Keeping the envelope he left and Isabella cried on her fate.
