Chapter 48 - Fidelia's Teasing

The adage that "every determined action has its inevitable consequences and that once we engage in it, it is no longer we who hold our lives in our hands, but it holds us in its hands" was definitely true and Kevin had to face the consequences of his wrongdoing.

Indeed, things were hectic at the Allen mansion as both son and father tried to prevent the demise of their business. The only person who did not seem to care about what was going on around her was Kylie. She still lived in her world, thinking that her family was high and mighty and would not fall so easily. She didn't know how the business world worked and that a business could meet its demise overnight if it was not run well.

At some point, Karl received a phone call from Eli. This call gave him some breathing room as Eli had informed him that they were keeping two contracts with them and would continue to invest in their film. He made sure to tell him that he was doing this in the name of their long friendship, but that his kids would still get the punishment they deserved for trying to harm her daughter in law. Karl was somewhat comforted because at least he could hope that his company would be saved.

On the other hand, at Eliott's house, the atmosphere was peaceful, the house was filled with laughter and good humour as they ate peacefully and talked about this and that, even Fidelia, who had been nervous in front of Eliott at first, was now very relaxed. 

At some point Eliott received a call from Christ, excusing himself because he had work to do. He soon disappeared into his study, leaving the three girls to chat with each other.

Since they were alone, the conversation switched to more entertaining topics such as men and other topics that were more for women. Fidelia, who could not make many words in Eliott's presence and found him a bit difficult because of his cold aura, was now carrying on the conversation verbosely. 

She didn't understand how Alex could be so casual with him. Maybe it was because they were a couple, or maybe it was because they were two weirdo. As she thought about Alex and Eliott, something occurred to her and she looked at Alex sharply.

"Baby Girl Since I am here, I wanted to ask you something, why are you wearing that? I mean, I thought you were unconscious last night...or did something happen last night? Did your little honey pot finally open up?" She smiled sheepishly as she thought of it.

"What, seriously? Did my little brother finally break his monastic vows? That's awesome!" Leila joined in the teasing, making Alex blush a little. They really did have a good imagination, she thought shaking her head.

"What are you two talking about? I had a fever, that's why my dress was soaking wet! Besides, I was not feeling well, remember? What could have happened? Plus my dress was too tight, so he put this on me!"

"So he changed you! He saw something" Interesting, interesting!!!Fidelia could not help but feel happy about the development of her friend's relationship.

"Well, that's nothing new, is it? Everyone has seen what he had seen, have you forgotten I am a model? I pose in a bikini and even have a picture on the cover of a magazine where I am naked!"

"Mmhh mmh that's not the same! Like you said, you were in a bikini so your secret parts were covered and on the cover of the magazine you could not see anything, everything was covered! But he did see your little bare breasts and as long as he wanted." Fidelia grinned and looked at Alex's breasts, following by Leila.

It was only at that moment that Alex remembered that she had not put on a bra last night because her dress was a bralette and it was nicer not to wear anything underneath. Her eyes widened as she realised why Eliott had excused himself and was a little nervous as he lifted the lid when she asked him to brought her in the living room! Because he had seen her bare chest! Immediately her cheeks flushed and she began to laugh nervously! "I forgot I didn't have anything on under my dress! Thank God I had panties!" She joked, making Leila and Fidelia laugh.

"But I have to say, my brother is really a lucky guy, he could see that without any effort!" Leila was pleased with the pace at which Alex and Eliott's relationship was growing. Maybe she would have a sister-in-law soon, she was excited for that day.

After her stomach was filled with delicious food, Alex finally felt like she could live now! Food really was the best way to comfort people, she was full of energy and in good mood. It was a beautiful sunny day with a bright blue sky and the sun shining along with the fresh breeze from the trees. As Alex looked out the large windows of the house at this beautiful scenery, she suddenly wanted to go out and make the most of this beautiful day. She still didn't have the time to visit many places in this beautiful city. 

"Leila, do you have time today? I want to go for a little stroll! The weather is so nice today!" 

"Good idea! It's been a long time since I have taken time for myself and today I have time, so let us go, I'll show you some really great places!"

"Fifi, do you want to come with us or do you have a little date?" A teasing smile formed on Alex's mouth as she had the opportunity to tease her friend. 

"I'd rather go out at night... It's more fun..."

Understanding the meaning of that sentence, the three women giggled.

"Lucky you, Fidelia!!!" Leila sighed, thinking of the last time she had tasted a man!

"But I don't know if Eliott will let you go out today, he's a protector and after what happened to you last night I don't know if he's okay with that." Leila remembered how her little brother used to get on her nerves when she was sick, and she could not imagine how he would act towards his girlfriend.

Alex was not surprised because she had a feeling Eliott was the tsundere type, "I'll try to convince him."

With that, she immediately went upstairs and was soon standing outside Eliott's study. She knocked twice before slowly opening the door. Eliott was on the phone when he saw her enter. He gestured for her to sit on the couch. Alex did as she was told and sat down without taking her eyes off him. 

He seemed a little angry, you could see a cold expression on his face and was talking sharply to someone. As Alex listened to him, she was a little taken aback. It was the first time she saw him at work and it was really surprising how different his whole behaviour was from when he was with her. 

After he finished his phone call, he smiled with his cute dimples showing up and took a seat next to Alex, who was still lost in her thoughts smiling unconsciously just seeing that beautiful two holes on his cheeks.

"What can I do for this beautiful woman?"

"I just wanted to tell you that I am going out with Fidelia and Leila, I want to enjoy the nice weather and see the city," Alex informed giving him his best smile.

"You have been sick all night, it would be irresponsible to go out today, don't you think?" Eliott made a serious face, he was not pleased to hear that she wanted to go out! How could she be so careless with her body?

"I know you are worried about me, but I am really fine, I am not that sensitive, you know..."

"This has nothing to do with whether you are sensitive or not, it's about your well-being, I mean, you were really out of sorts yesterday!" He watched her start to pout like a baby.. He really didn't want her to go out, but when he saw that sweet face, how could he say no! "But if you think you are okay now, I will not stop you."
