Chapter 122 about Alex
Chapter 122 about Alex
I knew that Alex's hometown was Great City. After a pause, I asked, "Are you going to stay here this
time?"
He shook his head. "It depends on your condition. I'll have to go back to Malaysia M in two days. There
are some things that haven't been handled properly."
The car stopped at the hotel. He threw the car key to the valet at the door. Diana opened her eyes and
got out of the car. She looked at him and said, "Why not starts a small clinic in Newton Town? It will be
convenient for us in the future!"
Alex looked at her, and then smirked. "What? What happened? Are you in a bad mood, or mentally ill?"
Diana rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.
The hotel was booked in advance. After registered at the front desk, we went upstairs together.
As soon as Alex entered the room, he said listlessly, "What I'm most afraid of the most is living in the
hotel. It's boring and lonely!"
I looked down at my phone and found that it was dead. Diana had fallen asleep on the sofa tiredly.
Alex looked at me and asked, "When did you find out that you're in a bad mood?"
"Half a year ago!" I replied, thinking. "At that time, I found myself was easy to be depressed and do
something bad to hurt myself or the baby."
However, it happened not often, but occasionally I went out of control.
He pinched the space between his eyebrows and said, "Clara, you know what happened five years
ago, so you still have to take it to heart. Once it happened again, this child and you will be in danger."
How could I not know that? Learning the news that my grandma was ill and watching Diana's parents
die in front of me. All these had a big impact on me.
I wouldn't have survived without Freddy George at the time my grandma passed away.
He sighed and said, "Fortunately, I've learned a lot abroad these years. I won't let you go to the
extreme like you did in the past."
I nodded. It was almost nine o'clock. Diana fell asleep.
I lowered my voice and asked, "Did something happen to you recently?"
Since the moment I saw him, although he looked normal, the disappointment in his eyes were obvious.
Even if he pretended well, it could be seen.
He paused for a moment, looked at me, and said with a smile, "Your eyes are sharp as usual!"
As he spoke, he got up and called room service for two bottles of red wine and said, "You can't drink it.
Just watch me drink it. I'm not in a good mood. Drinking some wine would help me to sleep after you
leave."
I frowned. "Is it about love? Or something else?"
In my memory, he rarely got trapped in love. As for his family, although we had known each other for so
long, I rarely heard him talk about his family.
Knowing nothing, I did not know how to comfort him.
He leaned lazily on the sofa and looked at Diana, who was sleeping soundly beside him. He asked,
"Who is the father of her child?"
Uh-huh!
I was shocked. "You... see though?"
He rolled his eyes at me and said indifferently, "Although we haven't seen each other for a long time,
I'm not blind. She's a girl who used to never get fat no matter how much she eat, but suddenly she got
fat. Eat too much, be easy to fall sleep and always touch her belly subconsciously. If she's not
pregnant, who is?"
Alright!
It was hard for me to tell him anything else but just said, "Ask her yourself later! Tell me about your
business. Since you asked us to come here, it's meaningless for you not to tell me anything."
The doorbell rang. He got up to open the door. It was the waiter who brought red wine.
Taking the wine, he closed the door and said, "It's not a big deal. I just feel that I've lived for more than
20 years and got nothing. I'm very lonely!"
I was speechless. Seeing him open the red wine bottle and drank it.
After drank some with Alex, I said, "Come to Newton Town if you have a chance! We are all here. We
can take care of each other in the future."
In a person's life, there were only a few true friends. For many people, if they were separated in the
crowd once, they would be separated forever.
He took a few sips. It could be seen that he was in a bad mood.
"Let's wait and see! I really envy you and Diana. You won't separate no matter how far you go.
Although you have no families, there is someone who are really guarding around you."
Diana and I are no longer just friends. We are the only family to each other.
This red wine was strong. After a few sips, I stopped. Seeing that he had drunk all the bottles in a short
while, I was a little worried. "This wine is strong. Don't drink more!"
Alex got a little drunk and blushed. But he still opened the other bottle and said in a clear voice, "Don't
worry! It won't kill me! Besides, no one will care if I die!"
After that, he started to drink again, and said with tears in his eyes. "People are really ridiculous. They
will insult and dislike you if they don't need you, but once they find that you can help, they will beg you
for mercy like a dog. Ridiculous!"
I couldn't understand his words and didn't know what to say for a while but listen quietly.
Diana, who had woken up, laid lazily on the sofa and said, "Did they ask you to back to City P?"
These words were obviously meant for Alex. He half-closed his eyes and nodded, his eyes was moist.
"They're all evils. They've forced my mother to death, and now they want me to go back and save that
sick person, what a joke!"
I didn't know what happened and looked at Diana in puzzle. "What's going on?"
She took a sip of water, put her hand on her forehead, and said, "Alex is the illegitimate son of
Anderson Thomson, a rich businessman in City P. Five years ago, his mother took him back to City P,
begging the Thomsons to admit his identity, but the Thomsons refused and drove them out. Judging Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
from what he said just now, I guess the Thomsons changed their minds."
"These things... I don't seem to know anything about them."
"Of course, you don't know. Back then, you were almost crazy because of your grandma. Even if he
told you, I'm afraid you wouldn't listen to him!"
I looked at Alex, who was still drunk. He leaned against the sofa, looking gloomy.
Everyone in this world would suffer from something, either physically or mentally. I didn't know how to
comfort him, so I could only accompany him in silence.
Sometimes, you had to get it over by yourself, no matter how hurt you are!
She looked up at the time. It was already in the small hours. Seeing that Alex was also drunk, she got
up and helped him to the bed. Diana stood up and looked at the time too. "Didn't Dennis call you?"
I shook my head. "My phone is out of power!"
She curled her lips. "You should go back soon! I'll guard him here."
"It's okay. I told Dennis at noon that I'll stay at YT Apartment tonight." We put Alex on the bed.
Noticing Diana's dark eye circles, I asked, "You haven't slept well recently?"
She nodded and looked a little tired. "This kid is probably here to take revenge. I'm going to die from
being tortured by it!"
Every pregnant woman's condition was different, and I almost had no reaction. My morning sickness
was not serious. After a pause, I said, "Let's go back!"
