Because Your Love Heals Me - Chapter 64

That night Alex did not sleep well. She tossed and turned in her bed and kept thinking about what had happened between Eliott and her that night. She felt overwhelmed, her emotions were all over the place as she could not forget the intense feelings Eliott had given her while kissing and touching her, it was like she had just discovered a treasure or something priceless and was now desperate to conquer it and possess it. Her night was short and her thoughts filled with Eliott’s strong, lean, sexy body against hers. She didn’t touch him much, but she could feel his six-pack when she touched him and she just enjoyed the pleasure she felt when their bodies touched.

Eliott felt the same way, he was frustrated all night and could not sleep well. He was so angry at his mother’s sudden appearance and interference! This was the first time he had been this close to Alex since he had met her. They had kissed before, but that night was something else entirely, as he could feel her letting herself go a little. It was the first time he had been so close to her that their bodies burned and demanded more. Her beautiful perfume was still on him like a spring flower breeze, the feel of her soft body was still lingering in his hands, he could still feel her delicate touches on his body, her hands playing around on his chest, he just could not settle down. That night he showered several times so he could get some sleep.

The next morning they both felt low and had no energy.

As soon as he woke up Eliott picked up his phone and called his mother, he had to get even or he would not have a good day either. His mother did not like being woken up early in the morning, it was one of the things she hated the most since she had stopped working. So Eliott called her with a wicked smile at least ten times until he was sure she was awake! And as expected she was pissed.

The next morning, seeing Alex’s downcast mood, Fidelia thought that things had not gone well last night. She started to feel a little anxious, not knowing how much she might be hurt by this relationship with Eliott, since it was her first. She thought about it and was about to cheer her up with a big hug when Alex beat her to it, pulling her into her arms and sighing.

“Fifi!!! I want to feel more!” Alex blurted out of the blue, Fidelia not understanding the situation at all, “what is she talking about, what did she want to feel?”

“Eeerh baby girl, can you speak in the human language? I do not understand what you are saying, feel what?”

“That man is a big devil Fifi, I was so determined to get that divorce state or break off the engagement you know, but in the end, I was in his arms kissing him like I never have before! It was just crazy. The feeling of his touch on my skin was just too good to be true!!! Now I am obsessed and want to feel more…” Alex sighed even more.

Fidelia’s mind immediately stopped working, her mouth was open and she was trying to understand what Alex was saying. She looked at her friend again from head to toe and her eyes widened even more in surprise, “Oh my god baby girl, you have hickeys all over your neck!!! what did you do last night? What happened? How did he start, how far did you go!!!? Tell me everything!!”

“Didn’t I tell you I ended up kissing him? That’s what happened…” Alex was amused by Fidelia’s reaction. She was such a drama queen sometimes, she never failed to entertain her.

“Do not try to fool me miss, it’s not all about kissing! By the number of hickeys on your neck, I am sure it was about touching too!!!”

“We really were just kissing… Well, we touched, or should I say I touched him a little here and there, but that was about it, we could not go any further because his parents came over… I tell you, it was so embarrassing that I would have loved to dig a hole and bury myself in it… ”

“No!!! You are kidding!!! Are you telling me that you met your in-laws? While you were making out with your man? And in your pyjamas?” Fidelia burst out laughing like a crazy girl! “I can’t believe this!!! Will you tell me quickly what happened?”

Alex pouted as her friend made fun of her, it was not funny at all, “nothing happened, we talked a bit, his mom is so cute, it was really good to talk to her, it felt great and warm!!!”

“I bet Eliott is in a bad mood today,” Fidelia grinned, thinking of the poor man who could not finish his nice meal in peace.

“Well, he certainly did not like it when he saw his parents come in uninvited … But he did not seem angry at all.” Alex shrugged slightly

“Think about it, if you felt frustrated and want to feel more. How would he react to that? I bet he’d be ten times more frustrated than you are now!”

While they were talking about Alex’s activities last night, her phone rang. She frowned, thinking about who would be calling her so early in the morning, but no one came to mind. Glancing at her phone’s screen, her hand froze for a few seconds, then she squeezed the phone tightly in her hand and frowned.

You could see the hatred on her face as she pressed her lips together and her heart began to beat fast. It was her so-called father’s name that was displayed on the screen of her phone.

The first time she did not answer and just looked at her phone with a blank expression. Fidelia, watching her reaction from the side, picked up the phone to see who was calling. She frowned when she saw who it was before absent-mindedly wondering why he was calling her.

Then the phone rang another time. Alex let it ring for some time before taking a deep breath and answering it.

“Hello, may I ask who’s calling?”

” It’s me, your father.

” Father? I think you have the wrong number, I do not have a father, my father died a long time ago.”

“My name is Alan Porter…” Alan gritted his teeth as he heard Alex.

“Oh, Mr. Porter? CEO of Priceless, right? What an honor, I wonder what I can do for you?”

“I want to meet you; I have something to discuss with you!” It did not take Alan four ways to tell her what he wanted her to do.

“Meet me? I do not know what you want to discuss with me. I have already told your company that I am not interested in working with you. Besides, I belong to Royal Star now, it would not be right for me to talk to their competitor. So I am afraid I will not be able to meet with you. Perhaps you can tell me what this is about now?”

“Alex, I am still your biological father, if I want to meet you, you’ll have to come…” Alan yelled into the phone.

“Biological father? So what? I do not have time Mr. Porter, I am a busy woman, I have to get ready for work, so…”

“Wait…” Alan was embarrassed and angry at the same time, but he could not back down, “I want to talk to you about your mother’s stock in the company…”

“Oh really? I thought she did not have any shares. Didn’t you snatch them from her before the divorce? So, what about it? Are you feeling remorseful now?” Asked Alex with a cold smile on his lips.

Alan frowned at Alex’s impertinence; he had not expected her to be so bold “I’ll tell you when we meet! Meet me at the Royal Restaurant tonight at 8 pm!”

After that sentence, the phone call was cut off. Alex looked at her phone with a grin, the game was up, Eliott’s plan was indeed working. She looked at her phone with determination, “Don’t worry, I will definitely get all my mother’s assets back”.

Fidelia looked at her and smiled, she tenderly took her friend’s hand “It’s time you show them that life is not as easy as they think. I am on your side. Just tell me what to do and I will help you with all you need, you know that right?

Alex looked tenderly at her friend and smiled at her. She did not know if she could be where she was now if she did not have her best friend with her. She had always been there all these years when she needed her.

“I know I can always count on you Fifi, thank you”.
