Ex-Wife by Mirah Selim (interesting books to read in english .txt) 📗

"She's beautiful isn't she."

"Yeah. wait what." Luca cracked up staring at Xander who snapped his head towards him breaking away from his night dreaming.

"I said she's beautiful and you said yes," Luca said while wiggling his eyebrows.

"I didn't mean in that way you prick." Luca chuckled staring at him with a small smile.

"There is no lie though Xander right. I mean she's beautiful, strong, and a kind-hearted woman. What more any man can wish for." Xander sighed before looking at her smiling face.

"Yes she is everything you just said and that's the reason. I don't deserve her." Luca's smile faded away and sadness flooded in his veins.

"Sometimes you need to let the past go Xander." This time Xander chuckled sadly before turning to Luca.

"Even if I try to let it go it will never leave me. It will always be by my side in the shape of my son." He said making Luca sigh.

This time Luca went silent as he knew Xander wasn't wrong. Alexander's presence will never let him forget his past. His painful past where he lost so much. His one mistake. The blind mistake he made is still haunting him to this day.

Only. If only he could bring that time back. If only he could stop himself that day then maybe. Just maybe the things would have been so better. The regret and pain will never leave him and he embraced it.

"What did you think for the future then," Lily questioned Amelia who stared at Alex playing with Luca. While Xander went to his office as he said he had some important work to do.

"I don't know but right now all I care is about my brother and my father's company. I need to rebuild it. I need to bring it to the point it was before." Lily nodded before caressing Amelia's arm.

"Have you thought about your and Xander's relation? I mean you and him--" Amelia cut her words turning to her.

"Lily. What are you saying? What relationship. I and Xander are together only for Alexander nothing else. And I also don't want to create any relationship with Xander. I am happy seeing Alexander happy and that's enough."

Grabbing Amelia's hands Lily turned her completely towards her. "Are you kidding me? Your just 27 years old Amy. You need to think about yourself as well."

"Lily I already had enough I don't think I have more strength to try the same relation I got so badly hurt from. Liam was and is in my heart Lily. No matter how much I try to hate him I can't, I love him. I still do what should I do it's just not easy to forget the man I love for more than 10 years."

Tears blurred her gaze as she continued, "I still day and night question myself that why he did that. If he loved me or maybe loves me then why. He broke us so easily. I don't blame him for the things he did. He's a brother and I am sure if I tell Harry that I was assaulted he would have done worst. But cheating. Why. I can't forgive that. I can't."

As soon as tears escaped her eyes she instantly wiped them away. Lily as well wiped her tears away that spilt out hearing her pained voice. Her voice was telling how painful it was for her. It is for her.

"Don't worry Amy time will heal everything," Lily whispered side hugging while Amelia nodded taking a deep breath.

"It will. Right now my main concern is my brother, only him." Lily nodded with a small smile.

"Don't worry our prince will wake up real soon." Amelia smiled at her nodding her head.

After some time they all headed towards the dining table for the dinner and night away and Alexander's simple and yet memorable birthday ended as well.

1 week later.

Amelia sighed before plopping on the sofa of her apartment. Today she asked Alexander that she had some important work so she wouldn't be able to spend a night with him.

And it wasn't a lie. She had some office work to complete and she knew it might take all night. She sighed grabbing her laptop and working on it. It was nearly 11 pm and she was working consistently for hours.

Placing her laptop on the table she decided to make a coffee but stopped when she heard a doorbell ringing. She frowned who could be at this time. She questioned herself before walking towards the door.

Opening the door her eyes froze and her frown deepens after her grey eyes met with those familiar green ones. Her hold on the knob tightened as well as her jaw.

"Liam."
