"Why Zac Efron is doing all these?" Alexi asked.

"Because he wants you!" Martin answered as he grabbed Alexi's hands.

​​

"Me?" Alexi asked with tears.

"Yes." Martin answered.

"You insulted him not once but thrice! He will surely take revenge." Martin said as he wiped Alexi's tears away.

"Revenge?" Alexi asked and Martin nodded.

"Why should this only happen to me?" Alexi asked with tears and Martin hugged her.

"Look, Alexi. I am with you. I will make sure, no one comes near you. Trust me, I will make sure of it." Martin said as he hugged Alexi.

"What if..." Martin cut off Alexi in mid-sentence as he kept his finger on her lips.

"Shhh... There are no if's and but's. Just trust me. I will make everything alright. No one will ever dare to touch you! Keep faith in me." Martin said as he cupped her face in his hands.

"Yeah... But it just... I just did what feels me right! I didn't intentionally hurt him. He behaved wrongly with me and I slapped him." Alexi replied with tears.

"I know, Alexi... I know. You don't someone intentionally. I know you very well. Whatever the fault is it's Zac Efron's. I talked about this with Brother too. He and I will do something! Don't worry. We are going on vacation tomorrow. Everything will be calm for the week. Please forget about what happened today and enjoy yourself. After coming back, I will see, what I can do with Zac Efron. Okay?" Martin asked and Alexi nodded her head.

"You sure? Will he be calm?" Alexi asked.

"He will, Alexi. He should because he doesn't have anything to prove you wrong. With what happened today, he wanted to give them to paparazzi and want to show it to the world that you are cheating on me with him!" Martin answered making Alexi's eyes go wide.

"But, I took everything from him. He doesn't have copies of what happened today! So, you are good!" Martin said and again a tear falls down from Alexi's eyes.

"You trust me, right?" Alexi asked with tears.

"What is with this question? Of course, I do, My love!" Martin answered as he wiped her tears away from her eyes.

"Thank you!" Alexi said as she hugged Martin and sobbed on his shoulder.

"Shhhh... I love you and trust you! You don't have to say thank you to me for me and likewise, It's my responsibility to keep you safe." Martin replied with a smile as he wiped Alexi's tears away.

"Please... Please don't ever stop loving me... I can't beat it!" Alexi said and Martin chuckle.

"I will never stop loving you! It's my promise." Martin replied as he kissed on Alexi's forehead.

"I am sorry!" Alexi said as she kissed on Martin's cheek making Martin chuckle.

"It's fine, baby... Just don't get to conclusions before not listening or asking anything!" Martin replied and Alexi nodded.

"I will never!" Alexi said making Martin nod.

"Form what time, you kept a man to watch over me?" Alexi asked.

"From the day, the rumors started about you and brother!" Martin answered.

"You could have told me about all these. I would have been careful." Alexi said.

"I just don't want you to take the stress. But... Just leave this to me... I will take care of it. I know very well, his to take Zac Efron down!" Martin replied and Alexi nodded.

"Just be careful with him!" Alexi said.

"I will." Martin replied with a smile as he again kissed on Alexi's forehead.

"Let's go home now!" Martin said and Alexi nodded.

Martin grabbed all the photos and kept them back in the envelope. He started the engine and drove off from there.

They soon reached Julie's mansion and Alexi got up from the car. She directly walked inside and a sudden hug made her shock.

Alexi looked down and saw Anna hugging her legs with her small hands.

"Aww... My baby, how are you?" Alexi asked as she took Anna in her arms and kissed her cheek.

"I am good. How are you, Damaqueen?" Anna asked as she kissed Alexi's cheek too?

"I am good! When did you come here?" Alexi asked?

"A few minutes ago!" Anna answered and Alexi nodded while Anna got down on her feet running towards Martin.

"How was the interview?" Samantha asked as she walked towards Alexi.

"Good!" Alexi answered with a nod and Samantha understood that something wrong happened.

"Excuse me!" Alexi said and Samantha nodded.

Alexi walked away from there and walked upstairs.

Samantha's eyes didn't leave Alexi until she disappeared from her sight.

"What are you thinking?" Johnson asked Samantha.

"Umm... Nothing! Isn't Alexi behaved oddly just now?" Samantha asked and Johnson eyes widened but he recovered it as soon as Samantha turned towards him.

"Umm... No! She looks fine to me! I guess, she is just tired!" Johnson answered.

"Ohh... Anyways, I will talk to her once!" Samantha said as she tried to walk upstairs.

"No, Samantha... It's fine... She just came... Let her take a rest. Maybe she got stressed with paparazzi!" Johnson replied and Samantha sighed.

"Might be..." Samantha said as she released a heavy breath and Johnson nodded at Samantha.

"Anna, come... Let's make something to eat." Samantha said and Anna nodded with a smile getting down from Martin arms.

Anna and Samantha walked towards the kitchen while Johnson, Martin looked at them until they disappeared from their eyesight.

"What happened?" Johnson asked Martin as soon as Samantha disappeared from his sight.

"She knows everything!" Martin answered.

"What?" Johnson asked.

"Can we talk privately?" Martin asked and Johnson nodded. They both walked out to the garden and Martin told everything to Johnson.

"So, she saw the pictures and you told her everything!" Johnson said and Martin nodded.

"Yes, that's what happened!" Martin replied with a shrug.

"What she wants to do with Zac Efron then?" Johnson asked.

"Nothing. I just told her to leave about him to me. She is already stressed a lot. But that bastard really needs to know his place, bro. He again dared to touch Alexi. What if something more dangerous happens to her?" Martin asked angrily.
