Capture Her Heart After Marriage

Chapter 32 His Ex-girlfriend

The next morning Alexia woke up to find her body completely sore. She rolled over and found there was no sign of Chaim. At first Chaim’s absence upset Alexia, but then the memories flooded her.

The night before, Chaim and she had what she could only describe as a magical sexual experience. The warmth soon faded when Alexia noticed a file on her bedside table.

‘What could that be?’ Alexia sat up and wrapped the quilt around her as she grabbed the file. She flipped the file over but there wasn’t any writing to be found so she opened it instead. She scanned the document inside and her heart dropped. It was the donation agreement.

Alexia gripped the agreement tightly, the last warm feelings the night of wonderous sex had brought drifting away only to be replaced with sadness.

"He really wants me to sign it," she said laughing to herself.

Even though Chaim ordered her to sign the agreement by the end of the day, she hadn’t expected to wake up to find it on her bedside table waiting for her to sign it as if he were afraid she would go back on her promise.

The fact that Chaim didn't trust her at all, upset her. Alexia stared up at the ceiling and wanted to cry. She tried for a long moment but the tears refused to fall. Instead, she just sat that and stared at the donation agreement.

After a while, she laid the agreement file on the bed and grabbed a pen out of the drawer on the bedside. She signed the document quickly, not wanting to lose her nerve. As soon as she was done, she quickly shoved the document back into the folder and sent Chaim a text telling him she signed it.

Within seconds of sending the text, Alexia’s phone rang. It was Chaim calling.

"Hello?" Alexia answered wearily.

"Are you already up?" Chaim asked in a low voice.

Alexia held the phone with both of her hands. "Yes, and I signed the donation agreement too."

"I know. I saw your message. When you come to work, bring the file." Chaim said.

"OK."

Then, they were both silent and neither knew what to say. If Alexia didn’t hear Chaim breathing gently on the other end, she would’ve thought he’d hung up on her. She actually didn't know why Chaim hadn’t hung up and was instead staying on the line in silence.
