Now and Forever novel Chapter 23

We had finally reached our destination with a lot of 'Xander this' and 'Xander that'. Some people just don't get it when someone doesn't want to talk to them.

I got my handbag from under my seat and made my way to the door of the jet.

Alexis and Audrey had already gotten out of the jet because they were walking towards an Audi Q8.

I made my way out of the jet and into the car.

A few seconds later, Alexander also walked out of the jet, Bethany hot on his back.

She had changed into a black dress that as to busy was stopping just under her bum and black six inch heels matching with her dress.

She was saying something to Alexander but he wasn't even paying attention to her.

Audrey, Alexis and I snickered when Alexander rolled his eyes but Bethany was unaware because she talking.

He opened the driver's seat and got in then put his laptop bag by my feet.

Bethany got in the backseat and as usual, right behind Alexander.

Alexander drove out of the airstrip and onto the main road.

Twenty minutes later, Bethany hadn't said anything and I was so-

"Xander, can you please stop at-"

Oops, spoke to soon.

Groans across the car cut her short.

"What's got your panties in a twist?" Bethany asked.

"It's because of your big mouth." I muttered to myself but giggles from the back proved me wrong.

I didn't even bother looking at the back because I assumed Bethany was glaring daggers at me.

***

Twenty minutes later, Alexander drove into some kind of garage inside a humongous building which I think is owned by him.

Inside the garage there were so many different types of expensive looking cars like at his parent's house but these ones were a variety of colors.

He parked in front of an elevator and turned off the ignition of the car.

We all got out and followed Alexander to the elevator.

He pressed the 'penthouse' button and put his hand for a scan then the elevator started moving.

The elevator ride was silent until someone decided to say something.

"Xander-"

"Shut up Bethany." Audrey, Alexis and I looked at Alexander in surprise.

This is the first time he had said anything to her!

Bethany was opening and closing her mouth like a fish, her eyes wide open.

The elevator then dinged and let me tell you.

Wow.

His house was just wow.

The floor was a beautiful white marble with grey walls to match.

There was a white spiral staircase leading to the second floor and a huge chandelier hanging from above the glass table below the staircase.

On the right was a hallway that lead to which I assume was the kitchen and dining room and on the left was the living room I was yet to see.

Everything was themed in black, grey and white without a single picture hang up on the wall.

"I hope you guys are going to fill these walls with when you get married and get kids." Audrey said still looking around the house.

Heat crept up my neck and cheeks even thinking about having kids with Alexander, because to have kids we'll have to-

You get it!

"That's if their marriage even works out." And that ladies and gentlemen, was none other than,

Bethany freaking whatever her second name is.

"Oh shut up Bethany, I didn't even know you were this shallow, oh wait! I did." Audrey deadpanned at the end.

Bethany just rolled her eyes and crossed her arms.

"Anyways, can you please show me my room Xander?"

"Just go pick any room upstairs apart from the last door down the hall." With that, he went down the right hallway.

Bethany walked up the stairs, leaving me, Alexis and Audrey downstairs.

"I'm surprised that she didn't follow Alex to his study room." Audrey said looking in the direction Audrey just went in.

"Ok, I'll go get settled, see you guys later." Alexis then went up the stairs.

"I'll also get going, bye Amelia." Audrey followed after Alexis.

*sigh* "home sweet home."

I went in the direction Alexander went in, looking for his study.

After multiple fails, I found the right one.

Knock knock

"Come in." I obliged and opened the door.

The sight in front of me was just wow.

Alexander, sitting down behind a mahogany desk, wearing glasses.

That's right, he was wearing glasses.

When I stood in front of his desk, he took off his glasses and crossed his hands on the table.

"Do you need anything?"

"Umm, yea, where am I supposed to like, sleep?"

"The last door, down the hall upstairs, your bags are already there."

"Oh, ok then. Thanks." I turned on my heel and walked towards the door.

"Oh and Amelia, you no longer have your job."
