A Mistake… A Baby!

Cade scratched his head and looked at her without any understanding on his face. “Alessandra, what are you doing in my room? Why are you here?” He asked her.

Alessandra wants to rip out his eyes because she is so angry and frustrated with him. How dare he even consider asking her that question! Annoying!

“Cade, you’re a man, but I know that when it comes to women, you’re a playboy at heart. However, your mother and I let you, because we recognize that you are an adult now. But now you’ve even bedded Alessandra! Cade, this is a completely different story. It’s impossible to mistake her for any other woman because she is Alessandra! Even if you are my son, I will not forgive you for what you did to her, and I will not let you go. She’s almost a family!” Leo spoke with an authoritative tone.

Cade didn’t move. She was unsure whether it was because he was still sleepy or whether he simply wasn’t paying attention to what his parents were saying. “There won’t be a problem between the two of us if you two get along. But I’m hoping that you didn’t keep it a secret from us. What you did won’t be called into question by us. You are both of legal age. However, it is a shame that you brought this upon yourselves; therefore, you should straighten yourselves out and come down.” Leo finally said.

Cade didn’t even open his mouth.

Cora, his wife, remained in front of them while they witnessed the scene, and she expressed a great deal of shock. “Cora, let’s go down. Let those two fix themselves first,”

His wife had no choice but to go along with her husband.

And at this point, the room only contains the two of them by themselves. Cade got up out of bed and dressed up in front of her. He’s not even embarrassed.

She averted her gaze away from him in protest. “You! Why did you forget to lock the door to the room?!” She barked at him angrily.

He examined her with an interested expression on his face. “I apologize. I really have no idea. It is not necessary for you to let me know if something happened between us. I can tell,” he sighed.

It is entirely due to her actions. She is the reason why they are in this predicament right now. She had a strong desire for his parents to catch up with them, but she did not want them to catch up with Cade. Caleb is going to be her partner in this endeavor. That’s her plan.

She yanked her hair out of her head. Why is she being such an idiot? Why Cade, out of all the men? He’s the man whom she hates! Her enemy! And to make matters even worse, she even gave herself to him! Alessandra sees the world through the lens of a nightmare. She slapped herself in the face, only to realize that she was dreaming the whole time.

She cast her gaze all over the room. She’s sure it’s Caleb’s room! It turns out that she was right all along. The question that needs to be answered is: why is Cade here?

“Caleb’s room is right here, but I’m confused as to why you’re in here.” It was too late to take back what she said.

His irises contracted, and he crossed his arms over his chest. He gazed at her with rapt attention. “Oh, I see what you mean now. You carried out each of these actions on purpose. You had the intention of making my brother’s life miserable, even though you knew that he was about to marry his fiancee. I can’t help but feel sorry for my brother because he had no idea that someone was following him around pretending to be his friend. You’re a snake,” He mocked her.

When she heard what he said, her blood began to rush to her head. “How dare you, Cade! I’m not a snake!”

“So, what exactly is the point of all of this, huh?”

Alessandra was at a loss for words and was unable to respond. “I… I just love him. And that is it. I want to claim him as my own. Is it a sin to be in love?” She asked in a hushed voice.

“Loving someone is not a bad thing; the problem is that you can’t learn how to accept defeat.” He appeared to be confused. “Wake up, Alessandra. Caleb doesn’t like you. He has a deep and abiding love for his fiancée.”

Alessandra has been aware of this fact for quite some time. However, it hurts more to hear this from another person than it does for her to acknowledge it to herself. Especially considering that Cade, her greatest adversary, told her that himself.

“Yes, you’re right. I may be pathetic, but I just can’t help loving him.” It was her insistence.

She was unable to interpret the feelings that were displayed on his face. “If that’s the case, you’re a fool.”

Her teeth were gritted together. “Go ahead and make fun of me. Call me names. But I feel sorry for you, Cade. Simply because you will never know what I am going through. What do you understand about love? You can’t have an understanding of love. Because you can’t love Cade. You are incapable of having romantic feelings for another person,”

The expression on his face was expressionless. “Wow. I am blown away by how accurately you judge me, Alessandra,”

“Cade, I’m just telling the truth!”

“It is a sign of foolishness if your idea of love consists of waiting for Caleb to notice you and acting immaturely for the sole purpose of having him, and doing these things just to have him.”

She made a fist and gripped it tightly. “How dare you!” She pounced on him and struck him across the face with a slap. She forgot to remember that she was not wearing anything, Cade was able to see her body as well as the evidence that she had lost her virginity, the bloodstain on the bedsheet is the proof.

His expression shifted while he spoke. He became more serious as time went on. “We need to talk.”

She clenched her teeth and proclaimed, “We don’t have to.”

He was not paying attention to what she had to say. He then looked at her while he was getting dressed.

“It’s time for us to have a decent conversation. And take that as a command!” He eventually stopped blinking altogether as he carelessly shut the door.
