A Few Days Later
Alexis was determined to leave Greyson, but she couldn't go far due to her financial situation. She ended up renting a modest apartment with her father and got a job as a waitress at a bar.
Running from Greyson and finding a new place didn't mean her problems were over. She had to gather the courage to tell her father about the pregnancy, because as time passed, her belly would begin to show.
"Alexis, take this drink over there," a bartender said, handing her a glass of cocktail.
Alexis immediately took it, placed it on a tray, and delivered it to a man sitting on a black sofa.
"Here's your cocktail, enjoy," she said with a smile.
"Thank you, you're so sweet," the man replied with an equally sweet smile.
Alexis walked back toward the bartender's station, carrying her black tray, but suddenly her ears caught a familiar voice. She turned and saw Greyson and William entering the bar, chatting.
