"Wasn't he the same friend you went to meet at the restaurant the other day?"
Alicia's irritation rose immediately.
"What's this now? Have you been following me around?"
"You wish," he scoffed
Then his tone became serious.
"Alicia, how many times do I have to say this? Even if we get a divorce, we're still siblings. I'm still your brother, so I have to look out for you."
"Brother?" she scoffed mockingly.
"Is he the person you like?" Alexander suddenly asked.
Alicia stared at him in surprise. How did he even reach that conclusion?
My heart ached .
His voice softened slightly.
"You don't know how guys like him are."
"And you do?" she shot back.
"Of course I do, Alicia. And that world isn't safe for you."
"Whatever. Think whatever you want," she said coldly. "And keep your concern to yourself."
Alexander's expression darkened instantly.
"I'm going to ask you again, Alicia," he said slowly. "Is he the person you like?"
Irritated, Alicia snapped.
