Chapter Forty Nine

SCARLET'S POV

Food is ready. Can't wait to serve Alex and Sera. They must be tired from the journey back home. But preparing everyone a nice meal to lighten up the mood was my main aim and the food was ready.

"I'll go and check up on Alex and see what he's doing." I stepped out of the kitchen and headed for the living room. I found Alex on the phone with someone.

"No problem then. Till tomorrow Baxter." Alex disconnected the call.

Oh, he's talking to Baxter. Looks like something is going on. I hope it's not what I'm thinking.

I moved closer to Alex and stood behind him.

"Is everything alright?" I asked, noticing his mood.

"What happened? You look upset," I asked, pointing it out.

I wrapped my arms around him and placed my head close to Alex's. He wasn't looking fine. It was bothering me but I didn't want him to notice my mood. He'll be upset if he knows that I'm unhappy with the way he's looking.
