Inside the Earl Hotel’s private club, Layton arrived to find Alex already several drinks in.
“You’re a real piece of work, you know that? My wife chewed me out because of you. I must have owed you a debt in a past life” Layton entered and told the waiter at the door to take away all the alcohol.
After the door to the private room closed, Layton took a seat on the sofa opposite Alex and lit a cigarette. “Even if you manage to scrub it from the internet, everyone in the industry knows. When did you hook up with that celebrity?”
Layton stared at Alex, waiting for an answer. Alex rubbed his tired brow, leaning back against the sofa. He took a drag from his cigarette and fiddled with his phone.
Seeing Alex’s silence, Layton’s expression turned serious. “Don’t tell me you’re serious about this.”
Alex took a long drag from his cigarette. Lost in thought, he remained silent. Layton couldn’t help but worry. While no one dared to confirm whether the two children with Ellie were actually Alex’s, it was clear to anyone who cared to look.
Ellie, emboldened by the fact that Alex’s parents wouldn’t dare acknowledge the children for fear of upsetting him, was raising them right under their noses.
Alex, his memories of Ellic completely erased, saw her as nothing more than a widow and her children as burdens that had nothing to do with him.
“Alex, what do you really think of Ellie?” Layton asked. He wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight if he didn’t get to t this.

“What can I possibly think of her? She’s a widow with two kids.” Alex’s casual remark seemed to come out of nowhere.
“You look down on her because she’s married and had children?” Layton asked.

Alex scoffed, “How dare I look down on her? She might be a widow with two kids, but she’s much prouder than I am?
He remembered the day he kindly offered Ellie a bracelet, only to be rejected. She had even walked away angrily. Alex couldn’t help but sound sarcastic.

“You’re right. I heard your aunt was so worried that she went to a matchmaking event for you.” Layton nodded seriously.
“Mr. Warren, the Warren Manor called. They want you to go back now.” Barry knocked on the door and entered. Alex took out his cigarette and got up.
Forty minutes later, at the Warren Manor.

Alex had just entered the door when Nancy slapped him hard. He covered his face in shock, completely caught off guard.
“Mom, if you have something to say, say it. Why are you hitting me?” He covered his face and walked to the living room.
Todd pointed at his youngest son, his hand trembling with anger. “You scoundrel. Look what you’ve done.” Alex lowered his head and stared at the video playing on a loop on his father’s phone.
The video showed him shielding Deborah from the onrushing fans. At the other end of the crowd, Ellie was kneeling on the ground, protecting her son with her own body, letting others trample and shove her.
Alex’s breath hitched in his chest, his gaze tightening involuntarily. He knew that Ellie and her son had been hurt that night, but seeing this video, the contrast was stark and undeniable.
