The Devil's Love For The Heiress by LiLhyz

Chapter 50: Hidden Motives

The Wright family and Carlos’ guests were having tea or coffee, nearly concluding their dinner. The joyous gathering had dropped Carlos’ sadness over the DNA test, and while everyone was chatting merrily, Alexander’s eyes were glued to his phone. Eventually, unable to hold back his curiosity, he turned to Carlos and asked, “Did Savannah contact you, by the way?” Carlos and Kate were whispering to each other when Alexander spoke. The Devil turned to his friend, lifting his brow. He responded, “Why? She has no reason to contact me.”

Carlos crossed his arms at Alexander and inquired, “Did you contact her? I hope you used a VPN.”

“Relax, I did,” Alexander replied. “I’m always playing it safe.” When Carlos did not probe any further, Alexander suggested, “Can you text her, man? I checked on her if she was feeling better, but she did not answer.” Carlos chuckled and reminded him, “Alex, it’s probably two AM in Ireland right now.” “Yeah, I know, but I texted her in the morning,” Alexander revealed. “I also called her, but she did not answer.” “Maybe she is busy, and if she does not answer you, you can always ask her during the Wimbledon tournament,” Carlos suggested. “That’s not too long of a wait.” “Right,” Alexander said, his fingers raking through his curly blond hair. Just when Carlos thought his friend was done asking about Savannah, Alexander leaned in, pleading, “Can you call her tomorrow?” With his mouth open, Carlos was about to throw on objection, but he sighed and agreed,” Okay. I’ll check on her. Happy?” with a nod, Alexander said, “I’m just worried she was still traumatized by everything you know.”

“Yeah, whatever helps you convince yourself,” Carlos said, smirking.

Alexander frowned at him.

Kate and Carlos were leading toward the front door. Lemuel and Alexander were already outside, waiting by the car. Suddenly, Samantha came walking down the staircase, holding a small purse. Two maids walked down with her, carrying pieces of luggage and Carlos number two. She said, “Carlos, son, I’ll send my daughter to you to keep you company and keep those bear hugs coming.” After urging the maids to walk down faster, she told, “I had most of your clothes packed.
