Genius Girl

Chapter 89 - 89: Unexpected call

Sitting on the couch where he was tied Alvin's face was gloomy because of the thoughts running through his mind , even his emotions were in turmoil . The daughter of the woman whom he loved so much had shown up at his son's house and just seeing her face had reminded him of the reason why he fell for Alexandria.

But unlike Alexandria's sweet and gentle personality, Daniella was cold and temperamental . Her beautiful and innocent face differed from her attitude, the way she smiled was sweet but tainted with hatred. Even the way her eyes twinkled was so charming yet dangerous.

He gulped hard, his body shivered at the thought of his son.

'Is she here to take revenge?' he asked himself.

Hands resting on the armchair clenched into fists, he would never allow his son to get hurt especially if the reason was him and his wife. Evan had done nothing, and Daniella should have known that since she saw his memory but would it matter? He asked himself.

For a woman who had lost everything and been treated like a monster by other people, would Daniella really keep her revenge aside and accept Evan despite his family's involvement in her mother's death?

There were a lot of questions running through Alvin's mind, it amounted to a massive headache that left him in pain rather than with answers to his questions.

His phone rang, he took it from his suit pocket and answered without looking at the screen.

"Alvin, Evan knew everything!" the voice of a familiar woman sounded hysterically on the other line.

Alvin sighed, how long has it been since he last spoke to his ex-wife Elise? Seven years.

Seven years ago, the day their son died and Elise killed the only woman he loved, Alvin didn't speak to her. He despised and loathed her for years, and even now he still feels the same .

"We both knew that he will find out one day " he replied as he suppressed the urge to yell at her.

"We need to do something! That whore's daughter is going after our son!"

His body burning with anger got up from the couch, he paced around like a ghost with heavy feet. Heart raced uncontrollably.

"Alexandria was not a whore!" he yelled back at her "it was not her fault that I didn't love you Elise!" he continued fuming.

The other line went silent the life she lived with him was full of hatred , not even a day passed where they were not shouting at each other.

But they never fought in front of their sons, neither did Alvin hurt Elise. Their marriage was an arranged one , Alvin had never loved Elise but the latter's feeling was different. She grew up spoiled, so when she set her eyes on Alvin, she did everything to make him stay, including killing the only woman he loved.

She thought he wouldn't find out but he did and that's when she finally gave up loving him.

"Let's put our differences aside and focus on our son," she said after a long pause "We both know why that woman came into our son's life she wants revenge, I am sure of it."

Alvin took a deep breath , his ex-wife had a point why else would Daniella stay in this house, a place where the people who caused her suffering lived if she was not out for revenge.

"You are right but I spoke to her Elise she's determined to get Evan" he paused because of the pain he felt in his heart at the thought of Daniella killing Evan , he had heard rumors in the house about how much Evan changed since Daniella's arrival "tell me Elise what's your plan?"

"We will arrange a marriage for him."

"That's not going to work " Alvin immediately contracted "do you really think Evan would listen to us now that he knows the truth?"

A laugh rang out on the other line, "tell your grandfather that I will get the 30% shares I sold back if Evan married my friend's daughter. I am pretty sure your old man would find a way to convince Evan."

The pair of Alvin's eyes narrowed in suspicion, they had tried buying back the shares his ex-wife sold to Roman Lee but the man was so greedy that he wanted more money than it was worth.

His lips curved in a sour smile, it was the best deal he could possibly get. The Su family will finally get full ownership of the bank and Daniella will be out of the picture once Evan should marry.

"Fine, I will visit my dad tomorrow."

After Alvin ended the call, Elise took in a deep sigh. She shut her eyes and the image of Daniella flashed in her mind which caused the veins in her neck to pop like that of an angry snake.

Once again she dialed a number on her phone and when it was answered she took in another sigh.

"Roman I found Alexandria's daughter, the little girl you have always wanted to find she's in my son's house right now. It seemed like they failed to hide her."

--

On the other part of the world.

M.o.a.ns and gasps full of l.u.s.t filled the hotel room. Bodies sweating passionately glued to each other from the hot intimacy that rocked the bed, the light-emitting from the moon shyly peeked in through a crack in the curtain

The translucent pair of Daniella's blue eyes stared at Evan's sweating face, he nestled his face closer to her shoulder and planted a light kiss as they both reached a climax .

When it was over, Daniella pulled the blanket over her sweating body as she breathed heavily. She could feel the exhaustion in Evan's breathe, she turned her head to look at him only to see him looking at her fondly.

"I need a shower " he said sweetly as he brushed his knuckles against her cheeks.

She nodded with a radiant smile. When Evan left and closed the bathroom door, Daniella hastened to get up put on the robe and picked up the cigarettes she hid in her luggage.

With the cigarette in her mouth, Daniella slowly opened the balcony. The cold wind of the short autumn in Macao brushed over her bare legs making her shiver.

She lit the cigarette in no time, she didn't want Evan to see her smoking simply because she knew that men hate it when their woman smokes.

Every puff of smoke that came out of Daniella's mouth disappear into the air; her eyes narrowed as she finally realized how to stop Evan from seeing her memory.

All she needed to do was to clear her mind, she didn't want to bother Evan with her past and she believed that just like her, Evan was doing the same. And she found it unfair that he had been hiding his past memory by thinking of her because no matter how hard she tried to get into his head and check his memory she couldn't, Evan always had her face in his mind.

She fell so deep into her thoughts that she had forgotten the cigarette in her hand until it burned her fingers. She blinked to get her senses back and peeked through the balcony door to see if Evan was done but the room was still empty so Daniella took another stick of the cigarette and lit it again.

When she was done, Daniella hid the lighter and the packet of cigarettes behind the small plant at the corner of the balcony.

She was about to enter the room when frown registered on her face upon seeing Evan by the door, her head lifted to meet his eyes.

"I just ahm - smoked," she admitted and bit her lips.

Evan laughed because of the look of guilt on Daniella's face, he lifted a hand and gently patted her silky white hair.

"It's cold outside so next time just do it here. I don't mind " his voice was soft and it sounded s.e.xier than ever before.

And Daniella replied him with a kiss , it was light at first but the moment Evan's hand lay on her behind and gripped it like jelly, Daniella could not help but press her lips intensely against his and it went deeper and deeper until their bodies fell onto the bed.
