My Ex Next Door-85 Chapter 85: Alexa's weep
Evan sighed and looked at him with a cold eye.
"She's my wife Ken." Ken parted his lips in shock while running his eyes all over Daniella's body.
"This" he stared and pointed at the woman who's height didn't even reach Evans' shoulder.
"This short woman is your wife? What the hell happened to your taste?" he could not believe it. He knows Evan's preference with a woman even though the lawyer had a pretty face her height was not acceptable in the community.
"FYI Mr. Chu this short woman happened to be your first love. So before you asked my husband why he married me, why don't you asked yourself first" The lawyer spoke in sarcasm.
Ken shook his head in disbelief. He looked at the lawyer and the woman who said to be his ex-girlfriend.
His face wrinkled in annoyance, he could not believe that he dated a short woman.
"Oh god, there must be something wrong with my eyes. How... could I possibly like you" he spoke while sizing up Daniella.
"Maybe her but not you Ms. Chen" he continued while pointing a finger to the woman behind him (Novie) and switched his eyes back to the lawyer.
"There is nothing wrong with your eyes brother but clearly your brain is broken so let me get a hammer and smash your skull into pieces" the lawyer yelled at him.
Ken widened his eyes in anger, he could not believe that a short-tempered person like her was his first love.
"Go to hell" he shrieks in anger when he could not find a word to say anymore.
"Don't worry I bought two tickets for us. So make sure to pack your luggage since our father is waiting for us in hell" the lawyer yelled back, Ken was fuming, the lawyer's tongue was so sharp that he started to lose all his patients.
"oh God! Evan please make her shut up" he turned to his friend but the man looked at him with cold eyes.
"Then ask your mother to stop calling my wife a bastard" Ken scoffed in disbelief, he never once dream that Evan will take a woman side over him.
"If she doesn't want then I can't force her " Ken denied. He will never let any woman ruin his friendship with Evan.
"You have too. If not, my sister and I will stop helping you" a man who had the same face as Daniella spoke from his behind.
Ken was so frustrated but he had pride, therefore, he refused to take his words back.
"I don't need your help" Ken spoke in a deep-toned voice.
"Well, say that again after you get kicked out of your own house and your company. By the way, since you let my sister take over your company. She now owns 60% of the company's share while you own the other 20% and I have the other 20%" the man continued.
Ken's heart skip a beat, he felt being deceived by the twins, he gulped and turned to Glen who was his previous lawyer.
When the man nodded, he paled. He groaned and chose to sit down, there's nothing he can do now everyone was against him yet no one tried to explain the situation.
"Fine. I will ask my mother to stop calling you those names but please someone explains to me what is happening and why does my taste to woman changed? Did someone tried to put a potion in my drinks?" he ran his eyes to Daniella and switched it to the other woman standing in front of him with sadness in her eyes.
"and what is your name?" he asked in a flat voice.
"Novie" when he heard her name, his heart skips a beat but he tried to ignore it. The reason why he never looked at her was because of his stupid heart. It keeps on thumping so hard every time he looks at her.
"Uncle Ken!!" a tiny voice shouted his name after the door banged open, he turned around and his eyes widened when suddenly, three kids jumped on him.
His body lay on the bed after he lost his balance, the two boys who looked so identical sat next to his shoulder while a girl whom he recognized from the picture sat on his stomach and placed both hands on his chest.
"Tell me, Uncle Ken, do you remember me" the girl spoke in a tiny voice.
Ken shook his head as a response, he was about to get up when the girl tugs on his collar shirt and shook his body without consideration.
"why? You can forget everyone but not me. Try to remember me Uncle Ken!" the girl pouted while rocking his shirt.
Ken started to feel unsteady, he tried to stop her but the girl was holding onto his shirt so tightly.
"I don't even know your name" he suddenly yelled.
Then the shaking stops, he sighed in comfort and looked at the girl in front.
Her face was emotionless but still pretty. Slowly, he could see her coffee-colored pupil changing its color to black just like his lawyer.
"Ah!!!!!!!" the girl suddenly screamed so loud that everyone in the room covered their ears.
Her tiny scream could break anything even the glass wall, Ken's brain frost for a moment, he could not tolerate her scream, it's grilling every cell in his brain.
Ken tried to stop the little girl from screaming, she's been screaming for almost a minute and yet no one tried to stop her while his eardrums almost destroyed.
In the midst of the screech, someone yelled at his ear, he looked to his side and saw the lawyer.
"Tell her you to remember her" the woman's roars overpower the scream of the little girl.
"Fine! I remember you!" he shouted and in just a split second the scream faded while the people around blows a sigh in relief.
Ken exhaled, he could not believe that such a tiny girl could scream that much.
"Really? what's my name?" the girl spoke while flickering her round eyes as if nothing has happened.
Ken shrugged his shoulder and tried to push her away, "I don't know your name" after saying those words, regret filled his mind.
The girl screamed once again while Daniella tried to take the small girl from him and asked her to shut up but the girl lowered her body and encircled her small arms around his neck.
Ken was choking by the girl's arm, she was hugging his neck so tight that he could no longer breathe while Daniella tried to pull the little girl away from him.
"Alexa, her name is Alexa" Daniella shouted at him.
Ken tried to part his lips to speak, "Fine, your name is Alexa, Alexa Su" but instead of stopping the little girl's scream went louder.
Evan and Daniella tried to remove her from him but the girl was holding his neck and he's afraid that if they tried to use more force, his head might split from his body.
"Are you stupid? Isn't obvious that Alexa is only a nickname. Where is your brain?" Daniella shouted at him, Ken mind was in chaos, there are two people screaming to his ears while the people around even Novie covered to save their ears.
"It's not my fault that you gave her a long name" he complained while trying to save his breath.
"Oh yeah, I forgot. you're stupid, so stupid that you gave me flowers for dead people" Daniella yelled at him once again but Ken couldn't remember it.
Ken shut his eyes, accepting his fate that despite all his enemy, his life is doomed to end in the hands of a small girl.
"Alexandria! Let him go!" it was Evan talking so distant to the small girl but she still wouldn't let his neck go.
"Cut her arm!" he proposed, he could not find any other ways than to cut the little girl's arm.
"Why don't I cut your head off!" Daniella yelled at him.
Ken tried to get up but he could not after the little girl pushed his body back to the bed while screaming.
He wanted to sigh but he doesn't have enough air. From holding the girl's arm, his hand transferred to her hair and patted it slowly, then he whispered at her ears hoping that the girl will hear his voice.
"Alexandria, I am sorry that I could not remember you but don't worry I will get a doctor to fix my memory" he murmured in a soft tone and in that moment, the whole place became quiet once again while the little girl got up and smiled at him.
"I am sorry for throwing tantrums Uncle Ken, do you hate me now?" the girl asked in a broken tone while blinking her round eyes.
Ken gulped and sweat formed in his forehead, he knows that if he gave the wrong answer his eardrums will collapse.
"No, I.. love you" Then he hugged the little girl while looking at Evan, then he parted his lips to speak wordlessly.
"Who are her parents?" he asked silently and the man turned to Daniella without giving the answer, when Ken followed his friend's eyes, he could see Daniella's lips parted and mutely said, "I am not her mother!"
