Mistaken Identity novel Chapter 49

Alex POV

I haven't got over my broken heart or the fact that I broke someone's heart. I'm still thinking about her. No matter what I try to get her out of my head. It doesn't work. I keep thinking about the times we spent together. The time on the beach, in front of the fire place and many more. The memories just won't leave.

Alliyah and Luke is here staying with me. My parents brought Henrique a week earlier saying they needed 'Alone time'. When they saw Alliyah they were shock. Of course my mother burst out in fits and argue but Luke calmed her down. I don't know how he did but he managed to get her to control herself.

Luke and I are friends. We talk about business and of course sports. He is a good guy. He's going to be a good father to Henrique. I've decided that Alliyah is truly sorry for her mistakes. She also deserves to have her child around her. I wouldn't want him hating her because of the mistakes she's made. Although I've agreed for them to get custody of him, I still wanted them to make him visit me regularly. I want to have a relationship with my younger brother.

"Ms. Carter, dinner is ready." I heard Cynthia at my office door.

"Thanks, I'll be there in a minute."

Cynthia isn't as mean towards Alliyah as she was to Kalliyah when she arrived. She was on the edge a little but I guess just like me, she forgave Alliyah. I saw them talking and laughing something she never did with Kalliyah.

Kalliyah.

She seems to come in my head every time.

I guess it's hard to forgot someone who you love. I love her and I pushed her away because trust wasn't there. If only I had a little more faith in her, then she'd be in my arms. She'd be with me. I'd be able to look in her grey eyes and smile at her. I'd kiss her and make her feel special just like she is. I'd tell her how much I love her and how much I care.

But I can't do any of those because she's not here and I don't have the guts to go and hunt her down.

I sighed and stood up from my desk. I closed down my iPod.

I walked to the dining area to see Luke and Alliyah was already there. They were holding hands and smiling at each other. That's sweet. There is no doubt that they love each other. I smiled and cleared my throat to get their attention.

Alliyah looked up and saw me. Her cheeks got pink with embarrassment as if they were caught doing something nasty. She placed her head on Luke's shoulder.

He laughed at her. He looks up at me. "Sorry, mate." He had a guilty look on his face but I need not question what conversation they were having at my dinner table.

I smiled and took my seat at my usual spot.

After a couple of minutes of awkward silence I decide to speak up. "Did Henrique give any trouble today?"

I realized at the mention of her son's name she jolt. That made me smile internally. "No, he didn't. in fact he was playing with Cloudy, Grey and their pops. It was great. I even put some pictures on instagram with them playing. It's adorable. The pictures got like instantly. He's asleep now though."

Alliyah is very techno wise. Since she's an ex-model he knew everything in the latest technology things and sites. Which is good in today's economy. I don't know to use certain things or equipments you're not getting a job at my firm.

"That's good. What did you two do?"

I saw the couples face got red. I smirk, they were doing the nasties in my house. I didn't mind though. They're a couple of course I accept them to be intimate.
