Chapter 135 - I Don't Love You!

"Hello, Ms. Alexi Julie." Martin called as he should her hand and She looked at him.

"Why are you looking at them?" Martin asked and Alexi shook her head in No.

"Come with me." Martin said as he grabbed her hand.

"Where?" Alexi asked.

"Just come with me." Martin said as they both got up.

Martin took her to the big garden and Martin sat on the chair.

"Why did you bought me here?" Alexi asked.

"I want to talk to you." Martin answered.

"What do you want to talk about?" Alexi asked.

"First sit down." Martin answered and Alexi sighed sitting on the chair beside him.

"Tell me." Martin said.

"What?" Alexi asked.

"What were you thinking about looking at SIL and Brother?" Martin asked.

"Nothing." Alexi answered.

"Come on, Alexi. You know that you can tell me anything right?" Martin asked.

"Martin..." Alexi said as she turned towards him.

"Yes?" Martin asked.

"What about Anna?" Alexi asked making Martin frown.

"What about her?" Martin asked.

"You know that Sam wants to adopt Anna, right?" Alexi asked.

"What?" Martin asked.

"SIL wants to adopt Anna?" Martin asked making Alexi sigh again.

"Alexi, tell me?" Martin asked.

"Yes. She wants to adopt Anna." Alexi answered.

"Then, why she didn't?" Martin asked.

"The orphanage has a policy that whoever wants to adopt a child from their orphanage then they should be a couple. So the child gets a family." Alexi answered and Martin sighed.

"So, now... What are you trying to tell?" Martin asked and Alexi shrugs.

"There is nothing to tell. I guess You can understand what I am trying to say." Alexi answered making Martin frown.

"Alexi, Brother loves Anna. They both became close in a very little time..." Martin said and Alexi nodded.

"Maybe, there is a chance that Brother will accept to adopt Anna." Martin said making Alexi smile.

"Thank you!" Alexi said. 

"Don't thank me. Anna became so precious to everyone in the family. Everyone loves that little heart." Martin replied making Alexi smile brightly. They both just sat in comfortable silence without talking to each other looking at the dark sky.

Martin heart is aching to ask Alexi questions about their relationships but he doesn't want to spoil her mood. 

Martin couldn't take it anymore and asked the question which is killing him.

"Why did you tell them there is nothing between us?" Martin asked.

"Huh?" Alexi asked with a frown.

"Morning. When Aunt Lucy asked what's going on between us?" Martin asked looking at the dark sky.

"Martin..." Martin cut off Alexi in mid-sentence.

"Alexi, please be honest with me." Martin said looking at Alexi making her sigh.

"I want to know you fully before I say anyone about us." Alexi answered.

"But you said, you just want to keep our relationship secret because of SIL?" Martin asked.

"Yes, I said that. But... You see, Hollywood doesn't work like that. Paparazzi will create a mess if we reveal it that we are dating so suddenly." Alexi answered.

"Alexi, what are you talking about? I am not getting you at all." Martin said.

"Look, Martin... I am not a person who opens up easily. It's hard for me too to understand and get used to things happening between us." Alexi replied.

"So, you don't want to tell anyone about our relationship?" Martin asked and Alexi nodded making Martin chuckle.

"You said you wanted to protect SIL from media and after she revealed herself you telling me now that you want to get used to things that are happening between us." Martin said with a small laugh.

"Martin..." Martin cut off Alexi in mid-sentence.

"Am I looking like a fool to you?" Martin asked Alexi.

"Martin... Listen to me please." Alexi tried to talk but Martin shook his head in No.

"I don't understand the thing that why can't we date publicly?" Martin asked annoyingly.

"Try to understand me, Martin. I don't want to go public now. We are not even a couple. We just went on one date. That's it." Alexi answered making Martin shock.

"What?" Martin asked.

"Yes, I said the truth. We just went on a date and we are no even a couple. So why should we go public?" Alexi asked making Martin widened his eyes.

"Didn't that date means to you anything?" Martin asked.

"It just one date, Martin. I can't tell you anything with only one date." Alexi answered.

"I Love you, Alexi." Martin said.

"But I don't love you, God Dammit. I told you, I just need some time. Why can't you understand me?" Alexi asked angrily making Martin eyes widened.

"You don't love me?" Martin asked.

"No... I don't love you... I told you many times that I want time. Time and time. I just can't trust anyone... You are not at all trying to understand me." Alexi said angrily.

"Then, why did you kissed me when you don't love me?" Martin asked with his heart crying in pain.

"It just a kiss... It doesn't mean anything to me." Alexi answered looking away from Martin.

"Yes... It just a kiss to you and nothing much." Martin said as he got up from the chair.

"Martin..." Alexi tried to talk with him but he cut off Alexi in mid-sentence.

"No... It's fine." Martin said as he walked away from her to his car.

"Martin... Don't behave like a kid. Try to understand me. Can't you wait for me a few days?" Alexi asked making Martin chuckle.

"Try to understand you?" Martin asked.

"I did and still trying bit you still are not honest with me. You are not telling me what you actually want from me, Alexi." Martin said as rolled in his eyes.

"Oh, God! How should I explain this to you?" Alexi asked herself.

"Don't explain anything to me and you will be fine... I am just a fool to believe that I can make you fall in love with me." Martin said as he chuckled.

"Martin please..." Martin cut off Alexi in mid-sentence.

"I said, it's fine... You don't have to explain anything... It's clear that this will not work out between us... So, let's stop this." Martin said as he stepped back going towards his car.

"Martin, please... Wait for a second..." Alexi said as she followed him but Martin already got inside his car and drove off from there.

"Why no one tries to understand me?" Alexi asked herself as tears fall down from her eyes as she looked at the car disappearing from her eyes.
