Chapter 54 : Cold expression

Alex got up from the bed and planned to leave when he stopped and asked Ava "where is Amy ?"

"Well, we are planning to go to the nearby city and spend time with the girls, we will come back in two days"

"I...see" replied Alex with a disappointed tone, he wanted to spend some time with his sister.

"Don't sound so disappointed, you will have the opportunity to spend time with her before the start of the competition, you two are really too close"

'You have no clue just how much close we are' thought Alex with a chuckle.

"Well, I will go, spend some quality time with the girls," said Alex before leaning toward Ava and giving her a kiss on her cheek, just a few inches from her red lips.

Ava froze due to the sudden kiss. She could almost feel Alex's lips brush against hers as he moved his face from hers.

"Mom ?"

"Ah, Yes, yes, good training "replied Ava with slightly redder cheeks.

Alex chuckled inwardly seeing her in this state then made his way out of the room while thinking 'That's enough like that, shouldn't push it too far'.

Meanwhile, Ava was once again admiring her son's lithe body, toned back, beautiful-

'Snap out of it, that's your son!' thought Ava, chastising herself.

However, his smile froze when he heard Lilia say with a cold but calm tone "you are late"

Alex suddenly felt a chilling sensation all over his body, but calmed himself and replied with a soothing tone, "I know, I know, but I had a couple of errands to ru-".

"Doesn't matter, now that you are here, let's start" said Lilia, cutting him.

As she finished speaking, Lilia turned to face Alex.

The moment he saw her expression - an expression he knew all too well - Alex turned around and started running toward the door while thinking 'sh*it sh*it sh*it...'

Just as Alex was going to pass through the door, he felt his soul leave his body the moment he felt a small hand tightly grip his shoulder.

' I'm dead'

"Where are you going ?" Asked Lilia with a chilling tone.

' I'm soooo dead' thought Alex as he was forced to turn around and look at Lilia, as he saw her expression again, he shivered from fright.

Lilia's expression didn't display her typically bright and beautiful smile that could melt anyone. No, her current expression was as cold as a block of ice, sending shivers down Alex's spine. Her once warm eyes were now devoid of any warmth or kindness, the room itself seemed to grow colder in her presence.

She stood there, her gaze piercing through Alex, making him feel as if he were under a microscope, her icy demeanor unsettling.

"I asked where were you going ?" Asked Lilia again.
