Sign The Contract
Alexander smirked but Marion and Luke couldn’t see his expression since the room was still dark.
At the thought of that, Luke quickly reach out to the lamp close by to turn on the light…
Alexander dropped his leg on the ground and let out a small cold laugh that made Luke’s hand stopped in mid air.
That laugh was more than enough for him to know the man’s intentions.
Alexander wasn’t scared of being seen, moreover he was the one who personally came by himself.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
He just preferred it that way….. to give them some fright.
“Who am I?? I guess you already know….”
Alexander’s cold demeanor sent a chill down Luke’s spine as he approached the bed with purposeful strides. His fierce gaze locked onto Luke, intensifying the atmosphere in the room. Marion clutched the duvet tightly against her chest, her eyes darting nervously around the room. She had an inkling of who the figure was based on his voice, and the realization only heightened her unease.
Alexander reached the side of the bed, his presence looming over Luke like a dark cloud. He leaned down, coming face to face with Luke, and spoke in a low, calculated tone.
“Good to see you again, Mr. Robertson,” Alexander whispered, his words laced with an ominous undertone.
With a swift movement, Alexander reached for the lamp on the bedside table and turned it on. The room was instantly bathed in a soft, warm light, dispelling the shadows that had consumed the space. The sudden illumination revealed Alexander’s face in all its stark intensity.
Luke’s eyes widened in sheer terror as he gazed at Alexander up close. The fear gripping him was so overwhelming that he instinctively fell backward, landing on Marion’s chest for support. Marion, though startled by Luke’s sudden movement, pushed his small bald head away from her chest in a mixture of disgust and annoyance, even though he was her husband.
Alexander remained unfazed by the couple’s reaction, his expression stoic and unreadable. He straightened up, his eyes still fixed on Luke, as if studying him intensely. The room fell silent, the tension thickening with every passing second.
Luke mustered up the courage to speak, his voice trembling with fear. “How… how did you get in? Why are you here?”
Alexander’s lips curled into a subtle, sinister smile. “Oh, Mr. Robertson, you know exactly why I’m here,” he replied cryptically, his voice dripping with a hint of malice.
Marion’s curiosity mingled with her fear as she interjected, her voice quivering. “Please, just tell us what you want. We don’t understand what’s happening.”
Alexander’s gaze shifted momentarily to Marion, his eyes briefly softening before returning to their steely resolve. He seemed to contemplate his next move, as if deciding how much information to divulge.
“You both have something that belongs to me,” Alexander stated, his voice carrying an air of authority.
Luke and Marion exchanged puzzled glances, their confusion deepening. They had no recollection of anything that could possibly belong to this mysterious figure.
Alexander walked towards the small couch and settled himself there as he looked at the couples who were like ants in his eyes.
Luke was so scared as he looked at Alexander who was staring intently at them.
Marion almost rolled her eyes at her husband who had suddenly turn to a jelly fish due to fright.
Can’t he be a man for once??!
Marion was so irritated by him, having such a fool as a husband was already a disappointment to her.
Luke didn’t know what his wife was thinking about, all that was running through his mind was that, Alexander must have known that he was part of a plan to lure Amelia to the cemetery.
Though he had told and convinced himself earlier on that He wasn’t doing anything bad but he knew within him that , that Ash girl wasn’t simple.
He knew by luring Amelia to a serene and dilapidated cemetery wasn’t simple and it didn’t sit quiet well to him.
He was aware of the fact that Amelia might be targeted or harmed but he still went along because of the money.
He was in dare need of money at that point to pay up his debt to the loan sharks.
One thing that Luke has come to realize is that Alexander loves Amelia.
And Alex has proven it in countless incidents like the time Alexander had called him to freeze Jolie’s account when jolie was causing troubles for Amelia at the mall.
And even the time, he had locked Amelia in that dense basement, that worried look on Alexander’s face didn’t skip his eyes.
And for the fact that Alexander wanted Amelia close to himself 24/7, and made her his personal assistant and defends her at every point…. there was no evidence needed to be sure of the fact that Alexander truly loves Amelia.
Alexander threw the file he brought along in the table opposite him.
Luke’s eyes fell on the file on the table and he immediately had a bad premonition about this.
Marion frowned slightly as she sat there like a moron.
Alexander leaned to the side slightly as he sat there leisurely “That is a document….. You have no choice but to sign it!”
Alexander didn’t even give them option as he said to them directly, That was the document he was preparing earlier when Phoenix had went to hunt Ash down.
Marion could be considered as the head of the house as Luke was just a push over for her, she was even more manly than Luke.
“And what if we don’t sign it??” Marion asked boldly as she wouldn’t consent to that.
Luke nodded along with her words and Alexander was suddenly amused at the boldness of Marion.
His lip slowly tinted up into a smile as the smile widened, his white set of teeth was in display.
But that smile gave one a depressing feeling rather that a relaxed one.
Marion felt something wasn’t right with that smile and just then, the door was pushed open and Jolie was pushed into the room and she landed her ass on the ground.
She yelp as her face was flushed red, crying bitterly “mommy!! Dad do something,… help me!”
Jolie was sitting on the ground with a flushed face, Marion was immediately emotional when she saw her baby girl on the ground with a distrusted face.
“Sign the contract or her second leg would be broken as well…..”Came Alexander’s cold voice.
Second leg???!
Marion immediately snapped her head to look at her daughter’s legs…
