Chapter 29
As the week ended, Alexander and I had gotten closer, not that close, but closer. I mean, the guy was
smiling, not smirking, but smiling at things that I said.
"Knock knock." I sang as I opened the door to his study.
He looked up with a raised eyebrow and leaned back on his chair, papers still in his hands.
"Alexander?"
"Mhm?" He hummed as he continued reading the paper''s.
"Can you like... I don''t know, tell me about Tony?" I asked as I bit my lip and took a seat in front of him.
He immediately froze and looked up at me, his face contorted into surprise.
"What?"
"I said, can you please tell me about-"
"I heard what you said, Amelia."

"Then why did you say ''what?'' If you heard me the first time?" I asked with furrowed eyebrows.
He inhaled and exhaled slowly.
"It was meant- you know what? Never mind." He said as he went back to his work.
"So... are you going to tell me, or...?"
"No Amelia, I''m not going to tell you."
"What? Why not?"
He looked up at me and crossed his arms.
"Because, Amelia. It''s honestly none of your damn business. So please, don''t bury your nose in it."
I raised my eyebrows at his rudeness and stood up.
And to think we were actually getting somewhere.
"It might not be ''none of my damn business'', but you honestly don''t have to be rude about it."
I didn''t wait for his reply and just stormed out of his study, making sure to m the door shut.
Since it was only 3:23, I decided to go to the beach.
I grabbed my sunsses, towel and phone then made my way out of the back door.
"Hello?" I said into the phone when Be answered.
"Mimi! Hi! How are you?! I haven''t spoken to you in like what? A week? Don''t tell me you guys had-"
"I''m gonna stop you right there Be!" I said as my cheeks got hot.
I finally got a spot on the beach and sat down on a chair.
"So..." Be trailed off.
"So?" I urged her to continue.
"Why did you call me, I mean, no offense, but you''re not allowed to call anyone at home during your
honeymoon."
"Yeah, your right, but I just needed someone to talk to."
"Aw honey, is everything alright?" She cooed into the phone.
"No, not everything." And I told her everything that had gone on the past week and today.
"I must admit, yes, I was sticking my nose in his business but that doesn''t mean he has to be rude
about it! All I did was ask a simple question and like a switch, he went back to his cold exterior."
"To be honest, you should look on the bright side."
"And what might that be Be?"
"You have to find out by yourself Amelia, otherwise, no one else will." And with that, she cut the call.
I groaned in frustration with the coded message and threw myself on my back and looked up at the
cloud less sky.
A shadow loomed over my face and I immediately opened my eyes.
There was a gorgeous looking man whose face looked awfully familiar. I was trying to figure out where I
had seen him when he spoke up.
"Amelia, how nice to meet you here." He said with a smile ying on his lips.
He was wearing a white v neck, ck trunks and ck flip flops with a surfboard in his hands.
I sat up, my eyebrows crinkled up on confusion.
"Nice to meet you too?"
"Oh, surely you remember me."
"Sorry, I don''t." I said with an apologetic look on my face.
"It''s alright, I can always introduce myself again. I''m Damon Kingsley." He said and he stuck his arm
out with a smile on his face.
My face lit up as if a light bulb had lit up at the top of my head and shook his hand.
"Oh that''s right! You''re from the g!"
He chuckled lightly and sat down next to me on the chair.
"So, where''s the husband?" He asked as he set his board down.
I rolled my eyes at the mention of Alexander and answered Damon''s question.
"He''s not here right now."
"So I noticed, trouble in paradise?" He asked as he turned to face me.
"You could say that." I answered while nodding.
Heughed while standing up and held his hand out to me.
I looked at him in confusion.
"I want to show you some-"
"Damon?!" And that,dies and gentlemen, was the person I least expected to see here.
