People will see us

"Alex, just a minute," Bella pushed herself between them. Although they only engaged verbally, Bella was worried. She didn't want people to notice them.

Alexander looked down at Bella in an irksome mood as his woman supported another man in front of him. Does she know what she is doing? Alexander let go of her arm. Bella knew she had messed up, as Alex's eyes blamed her for the words she had just mouthed. She shouldn't. But Bella did not want to give Tim false hope. It was better to end in the early phase before the liking turned into love.

Bella and Tim took a step a little from Alexander, who cast a warm breath without taking his eyes off them.

"Bella, is he your boyfriend?" Tim asked as soon as they stepped away from Luther.

"Tim, I-I," Bella opened her mouth, but Tim's words cut him in the middle, "Bella, he is not a good man. He is not. Don't fall into his trap. He loves to play with women and then leave them after breaking them into pieces. My friend had taken her life because of him," Tim warned her because Bella wasn't the type of girl who knew how to make fun of love. She was a genuine woman who deserves actual love and life.

"I-I understand," Bella reacted, looking down. She knew everything and still, she allowed herself to fall into this relation of her own accord. Alexander had never forced her.

"No, you don't. You don't know how pernicious your life will be with him. You deserve a great man, Bella," Tim said with disappointed eyes. They sunk into sadness before being allowed. His hand went up to hold her arm, but his hand was caught in the mid-air by another rough hand.

"Do you have a death wish, doctor? Prey to the devil, you will see me in no time," Alexander gritted his teeth with louring eyes at Tim. Bella was dumbfounded by the situation. She didn't catch the speed, but Alexander was faster than her mind. As if a hawk was ready to catch its prey at the exact moment.

"Alex, leave," Bella said, looking back and forth between the two men. But all above Alexander's look could compare with the danger at the door.

"No, Bella. Look at his actual face. Don't be deceived by him anymore. He is an arrogant man with a dirty heart who loves to play with women," Tim hissed while he said. He was mad and jealous, thinking another beautiful soul fell into Alexander's game, whom he liked.

"Tim, I know everything. Truthfully, Alex hasn't forced me for once. Please understand. I don't want clutter here," Bella said, and Alexander left Tim's hand with a jerk. His eyes were on the doctor still, but his hand held the woman possessively.

"Let's go," said Bella, taking her eyes from Tim to Alex.

Tim closed his eyes and then opened them when he found Bella had left. He didn't have the right to speak. Bella had confirmed that she went into the relationship voluntarily, and the matter was closed there. He was an outsider who had no right to interfere in other's relations.

But why is she adamant about making her life hell?

Damn! He turned back, thinking that he could not leave her alone with the demon. He should help her, which requires him to be with her. And he will.

"Alex, you are hurting my hand!" Bella said when she was pulled by Alexander. Her hand felt the force that caused her pain.

"Get in," said Alexander, opening the car door. He didn't give her a look, only his words came out to inform Bella what she should do.

The car started in silence. Bella looked at him for minutes, wishing Alex would say something, but he gave her a cold shoulder.

"Alex, why are you angry? Tim and I have nothing between us," Bella said with hopeful eyes. She waited for his reply. At least the thing he had in him should let it out so that she would apprehend where she had made a mistake.

"Alex, are you listening?" Bella shouted, placing her hand on his shoulder. Alexander braked the car off the side of the road and all of a sudden he pulled Bella by her hand, making her leg wide apart as he made her sit on him.

"Speak," Alexander demanded, holding her thigh with one hand in the position of the straddle while the other hand clasping her hand behind her back.

"What are you doing? People will see us," Bella anxiously told, looking outside through the window.

"Why do you care about others when you are with me? Should not your eyes and your mind be on me? Why then?" said Alexander, staring at her flushed face, and it reminded him of how many men were eyeing her.

"We can sit and talk normally," Bella said.

"Answer me!" Alexander blew her words as dust while he drew his face to her chest.

"Stop!" a scared voice requested with wide eyes.
