NovelEnglishChapter 0136 +25 BONUS Maximus, feeling uncomfortable after seeing Peter and Mary together, decided it wasn't the tor place to speak with her. Instead, he headed to Alexia's room.
"Alexia? Can I cin?" he asked, knocking lightly on the door.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen he got no reply, he opened it to find Alexia sitting with her face buried in her hands, streaming down her cheeks.
tears "Maximus? What are you doing here? Go back to your ex-wife!" Alexia snapped, her tone dripping with fury. "What are you talking about?" Maximus asked, taken aback.
"I saw you, Maximus. I saw you carrying your ex-wife. You go running to her-what about me? Aren't I the mother of your child?" "You are, Alexia. But what does that have to do with anything?" "You haven't even cto seetoday. And when I went looking for you, what did I find? A loving scene between you and Mary. Why did you even bringhere?" "Alexia, I... I only helped her to the bench in the garden. Please, understand..." "Understand what? That you're still chasing after your ex-wife? She's with Peter now, Maximus! It's like you're looking for excuses to be around her. Meanwhile, you don't even take care of us. You know what? I'm leaving." "Alexia, please. Where are you going?" "I'm going back to Valeria. I don't know why you broughthere. Yesterday I wasn't feeling well, and you leftalone." "Did you not see what happened? Please, try to put yourself in her shoes." "Why should I? She took years from us! For years, I had to live with the title of mistress, and it seems like you've conveniently forgotten all about that." Maximus had never told Alexia the truth about how things had ended between him and Mary. It had all been a horrible misunderstanding, but Alexia's involvement in that situation was undeniable. He had avoided bringing it up for the sake of keeping the peace, especially now with the baby on the way.
"Alexia, listen to me. Mary is pregnant with Peter's child. Yesterday, she nearly lost the baby. Peter had to take her to the hospital. And today, it's her grandfather's funeral. Can't you understand what she's going through?" "I don't care, Maximus! She separated us, and I'm the mother of your child. Yet you don't even care for us the way you should," Alexia spat, grabbing her suitcase and heading for the door.
"Alexia, please...
"I've already said-I'm leaving. If you don't want this to end, you'll cwith me. Otherwise, I'll know that woman is more important to you than our child and me." 1/2 Chapter 0136 "Alexia, don't do this." "Oh, but I will," she said coldly, brushing past him and out of the room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm+25 DOMUS Maximus was frustrated by her complete lack of empathy for the situation. It didn't surprise him- Alexia had always been like this. If something didn't affect her directly, she rarely gave it more than a passing thought.
As Alexia got into the car to head to the airport, she asked the driver to raise the privacy divider. Once alone, she pulled out her phone and made a call.
'Grandpa, if you're serious about dealing with Mary, then do it-and do it now. If not, she's going to find a way to take Maximus back." "What do you mean, my dear?" "I argued with Maximus today. He carried her in his arms, and then he had the nerve to askto empathize with her. Her grandfather's death has nothing to do with me! Why should I care?" "I see... That is concerning. What if Maximus starts doubting your marriage plans?" "Exactly! Do you see why I'm upset?" “I understand, my dear. Letsee what I can do. But if you want her gone from your life, she'll be gone. After all, she's practically alone now, isn't she?"
"Yes, but I want her completely out of the picture. Also, I just found out she's pregnant with Peter's child. If Peter starts having children, the Palmer inheritance will be divided among more people. Isn't that something to consider?" "What? What are you saying?" "It's true. Mary is pregnant. The stress from her grandfather's death nearly caused her to lose the baby, but somehow, she cthrough unscathed."
"Hmph. If that's the case, we'll need to accelerate our plans. Mary's shares cannot fall into her hand's As fall into for Marsus Bartz... well, let's just say he's no longer an issue," her grandfather said cryptically, glancing at the "special request" that had been delivered to him earlier.. It was clear that both Frank and Alexia Levett were willing to go to any lengths to get what they wanted.
Maximus, meanwhile, chose not to follow Alexia. His focus shifted instead to his grandmother, who was visibly struggling. He couldn't abandon her during such a difficult time. While being there for Mary might have been an added bonus, his primary concern was Catherine. He had noticed the depth of her grief-it was painfully clear that her relationship with Albert had been much more than it seemed on the surface. At that moment, staying by her side felt like the right thing to do.
