Chapter 735 - Seven Hundred And Thirty-five: Attacked By Thugs

The third point of view :

After hearing that Reina was almost involved in an accident, Isabella was more than eager to leave the hospital. But then, as much as Anabelle was happy that Isabella finally made up her mind to leave this prison she made for herself, she can\'t leave on an empty stomach.

"I swear to God Isabella if I\'m back with the food and you\'re gone, I\'ll never talk to you, again, forever. I mean it," Anabelle threatened her.

"I\'d love to see that happen," Isabella smirked, knowing Anabelle could never give up chatting with her.

"I\'m serious, don\'t you dare make a move," She warned while leaving.

Anabelle couldn\'t stay in the room anymore. She had ordered their meal and wanted to get it at the entrance once it arrived since staying in the room with Isabella was annoying her - Isabella was trying to rush her to leave without breakfast.

So she lazily ambled the hospital\'s hallway hoping that before she could make it back, her order must have arrived. And it was during her leisure stroll that her eyes fell on a familiar figure and a frown emerged on her expression. No way, that couldn\'t be him.

However, her eyes weren\'t deceiving her and he looked really familiar even though he was limping and his weight supported with the help of crutches. So she followed after him with rapid steps and when she came close enough to be heard, shouted, "Mr. Alec?"

Immediately the man stiffened and that was the chance Anabelle needed to walk in front of him and gasped in shock, "Mr. Alec?!" it was really him.

"Oh my God?!" Anabelle was filled with shock, "What happened to you? How did this happen?"

"Hi Anabelle," Alec said with a smiling face even though he winced internally, she was the last person he wanted to see in this condition.

However, he was unable to run from her even if he wanted to because of his leg, so Alec had no choice but to entertain her. The both of them sat down on one of the waiting chairs in the hospital lobby to discuss.

"I thought it was strange when I couldn\'t get a hold of you the past week. Who knew you were not well? You didn\'t inform any of us," Anabelle pouted.

He smiled at her with effort, "I had a good reason for keeping it secret, else the reporters would have a field day already and it would affect my ongoing shows and projects," He explained.

"Oh," Anabelle nodded, understanding his reason for doing so. Even right now, as they sat down, Alec hid his face with black aviator glasses and wore a baseball cap. He would even lower his head whenever people passed as if he was afraid that he would be recognized.

Anabelle felt for him.

"How did this happen?" She asked.

"It was an accident," Was the short answer Alec gave her.

"Don\'t lie to me," Anabelle told him, "That faded bruise around your eye is clearly a result of a blow to the blood vessels there," She could tell having treated Julie a few times he was bruised from a fight.

Alec was dumbfounded, he was hoping to keep her away with that lie, but now it doesn\'t seem to be working. He lowered his head with a deep sigh and then glanced up, staring her deep in the eyes as he confessed, "I was attacked,"

Anabelle\'s eyes grew wide, "By who?"

"By thugs?"

At the mention of thugs, Anabelle\'s thoughts quickly shifted to Julie and her heart clenched. She had sensed the bloodlust emanating from him that day the both of them met at the club. Did Julie hurt Alec behind her back? The thought of it made her blood boil.

"By thugs hired by my competitors to stop my projects? I have a lot of enemies, Anabelle," Alec said to her.

"Oh," Anabelle found out that he was just speculating. A great relief spread over Anabelle, thank God Julie didn\'t do anything to him - if only she knew.

A brief silence fell over them until Alec said, "I heard about your engagement, congratulations,"

"Oh, that?" Anabelle giggled, unconsciously showing off her diamond ring, "Thank you,"

"I also heard you want to retire early,"

"You do hear a lot of things," Anabelle was a bit embarrassed.

"I\'m literally useless here so all I can do all day is listen to gossip like old women," He chucked, causing Anabelle to crack up as well.

But she barely stopped laughing when Alec said, "Don\'t quit your job,"

"Huh?"

He turned to her, "You really want to be a housewife?"

"What\'s wrong with being a housewife?" Anabelle was now uncomfortable with where this conversation was heading to, "I have more than enough money and inheritance enough to take care of me and my children as long as I live so I can\'t be in financial trouble,"

"So you\'re going to forsake your dream to be -"

She cut him off, "My dream is to have a family and I\'m going to work hard to make that happen. Fame and money don\'t move me, Alec,"

"You\'re doing great already, Anabelle and if you work a little harder, you\'d become a legend in this field. Are you going to give that up, Anabelle?"

"For the sake of my family, I intend to create? Yes." Anabelle answered firmly.

"And what if that family doesn\'t work out then?"

"What?"

Alec drew closer and said, "How well do you know Julie, Anabelle? What if he\'s a dangerous man?"

"Dangerous man?" Anabelle\'s brows drew together in deep deliberation, could it be that Alec had an idea what Julie does for a living. God, this can\'t be good especially if Julie finds out.

However before Anabelle could warn him to stay away from Julie, a voice said from behind, "Did someone make an order?"

Anabelle gulped and then turned around to see a smiling Julie with the deliveryman standing beside him. Shit, she forgot the part where he said he would be taking her home and how did the both of them -the delivery man and Julie- even meet.

Annabelle was so stunned that she did not see the way Alec\'s eyes widened, and his face was filled with fear.

"We would speak later," Anabelle said to Alec, hoping he leaves before Julie recognizes him. Thankfully he was smart enough to pick up his crutches to leave just as she stood as well.

"Goodmorning handsome," Anabelle kissed Julie deeply on the lips. However, in reality, she was only trying to distract him from noticing Alec.. Sadly, If only she knew Julie already recognized Alec and understood her intention yet he shamelessly enjoyed the kiss she gave out freely.
