Capture Her Heart After Marriage
Chapter 36 He Is Jealous
Alexia put her silverware down, opened her purse, took out her phone, and she was surprised to see who was calling. "I apologize for the interruption, Mr. Swift, but I need to take this call."
"Of course. Who is it?" Joseph glanced toward her phone to see who was calling, but stopped himself.
Alexia waved hand. "My husband."
Joseph smiled and nodded, as if he understood why Chaim was calling.
Alexia excused herself and hurried out of the restaurant.
"Hello?" she said as she answered the phone.
"Alexia, didn't I tell you to come back earlier? Where are you now?" Chaim asked, his voice stern and tinged with an unnoticeable bit of concern.
"I’m out having lunch. What's wrong?" Alexia frowned, worrying she angered Chaim again.
Chaim took a deep breath. "Evelyn’s health declined rapidly, her leukemia got worse far faster than we originally expected. Her doctors decided she needed the surgery tonight and we need you to donate your bone marrow soon."
Alexia’s body went numb, and the blood drained from her face, fear settling in her stomach. "Wh-what? Didn't we agree to have the surgery tomorrow?"
Alexia still had so much work to do and had explained nothing to the three new secretaries yet.
"Yes, but it’s not much earlier. It’s only been rescheduled a dozen hours earlier or so. It’s really no big difference. Where are you now?" Chaim asked.
Alexia gave him the address.
"Wait there. I’ll be there soon."
"Alright…" Alexia said, smiling bitterly.
As soon as the call ended, Alexia put her phone in her purse and stared up at the sky. Even though the sky was a beautiful clear blue, Alexia’s tears blurred and muted the colors. Chaim treated Evelyn so nicely and cared so much for her. Alexia couldn’t push her jealousy down. ‘Will Chaim ever care about me like he does Evelyn?’
When Alexia headed back into the restaurant, Joseph noticed her red and puffy eyes and looked at her in concern. "What’s wrong? Are you okay?"
"Yes… No… Something happened…" Alexia picked up her fork, but she had lost her appetite.
