Charlotte's POV

I heaved a loud sigh while I was boiling with anger and drove towards them.

When I got out of the car, Thalia pulled Alex towards her by grabbing his lapel and brushed her lips against his lips. And at that moment I saw red. Now no one would save her from me; I was going to kill her.

Before I managed to approach them, Alex pushed her back angrily.

"What the fuck got into you, Thalia?!" He barked, fuming, and wiped his lips with the back of his hand.

"Don't pretend. I know you liked it. One more time?" She commented cockily and bit her lower lip provocatively, resting her hand on Alex's chest before giving me a victorious smile.

"You bitch! I am going to kill you." I snapped in frustration and grabbed a handful of her hair.

"Let go of me!" She shouted angrily and cursed at me in Greek.

"Charlotte! Calm down." Alex demanded, wrapping his arms around my waist from behind, trying to pull me away while a security guard tried to help Alexis to separate me and Thalia.

"Let go of me, Alex! I will kill this bitch. How dare she kiss my husband!" I exclaimed angrily, trying to get rid of Alex's grip, but he didn't loosen his grip around my waist and carried me inside the building, ignoring my demands after ordering the security guard to make Thalia leave.

"Why didn't you let me kill her?!" I snarled at him as he put me down in my office. I rested my hands on my hips while shaking with anger.

"Calm down, Charlotte!" He said, approaching me, and rested his hand on my arm.

"How? Could you stay calm if my ex kissed me in front of you?!" I asked sarcastically and rolled my eyes.

Calm down?!... He shouldn't be serious.

He gave me a death glare as his jaw clenched.

"Look! Even thinking about it makes you mad." I commented, giving him a knowing look.

He heaved a loud sigh, rubbing his temple. "It isn't my fault that she kissed me."

"I know. Look, you are still alive." I commented mockingly, gesturing to him.

He rolled his eyes. Then he took a deep breath, trying to calm down.

"I promise I will do something about her." He promised, looking me in the eyes as he cupped my cheeks. I breathed deeply, trying to calm down, and nodded. He gave me a charming smile and leaned towards me.

"Hey!" I exclaimed and pushed him back when he wanted to kiss me. He looked at me, stunned. "Go and wash your mouth. I don't want to catch any diseases because of that bitch." I commented in annoyance, folding my arms over my chest.

He grinned, shaking his head. "Your wish is my command." Alex commented, amused.

"As a matter of a fact, it was a command, not a wish." I clarified firmly. He gave me a dirty look and rolled his eyes.

***

After having dinner with my brother and Sienna, Alex and I decided to go to the nightclub to have some fun. We invited Sienna and Romeo to join us, but they refused; Sienna got tired easily because she was in her last trimester. I was going to be an aunt again. It was a boy this time.

I was resting my hand on Alex's thigh while he was driving his car. Alex frowned, looking at the rear-view mirror as a black car behind us started honking, trying to overtake.

"What is with this idiot! He is tailgating me when I am already driving slightly over the speed limit." Alex commented, annoyed while trying to find out who was the driver.

"It is tinted." I stated, looking behind, and frowned, but the car kept honking while closing the distance between us.

"Alex! Be careful!" I exclaimed, scared when he accelerated, but the car didn't stop sitting on our tail.

"Hold tight!" Alex ordered authoritatively while accelerating his speed more and more.

The car tried to pass our car while honking continuously. When Alex wanted to let him pass in the first opportunity, the car hit our car purposely.

"Alex!" I shouted in panic when Alex lost control over the car.

"Charlotte! Hold tight!" He warned me, scared as our car was about to crash into a tree.

When I opened my eyes, I was in a hospital room.

"Alex!" I shouted in fear as I remembered what happened.

"I am here. I am here, koukla mou." Alex said, grabbing my hand as he approached me.

"Are you fine?" I asked, worried.

"I am fine. Don't worry. Just a few bruises." He gave me a reassuring smile. I breathed deeply in relief. "How do you feel? The doctor will come soon." Alex asked worriedly, caressing my hair.

"I am fine. Just my head is pounding." I replied and grimaced in pain.

A few minutes later, the door opened and the doctor walked in. He gave me a warm smile as he noticed I was awake.

"How do you feel, Mrs. Stavrou?" He asked politely.

"Fine. When can I leave?"

"Well... The test results are good, but we have to check the baby with the ultrasound before you leave the hospital." The doctor informed us, looking at the file in his hand.

"Baby?!" I and Alex exclaimed in unison.

"Yes. Didn't you know? You are six weeks pregnant." The doctor informed us warmly.

I looked at Alex with teary eyes as happiness filled my heart. Meanwhile, he was staring at the doctor as his jaw dropped in surprise, squeezing my hand tightly.

After giving us some advice, he walked out, leaving my surprised husband and me alone.

"Alex? Are you okay?" I asked nervously as Alex hadn't moved an inch since the doctor left. I was afraid of his reaction. Yes, before we talked about having a baby, but later, we postponed it because of the fashion show. I couldn't stop myself from remembering Nathan's reaction when I had the suspicion about my pregnancy.

Don't think about it, Charlotte!

This time it is totally different. I and Alex love each other. Moreover, we talked about having a baby as well.

He is just surprised. And after the accident, of course, it caught him off guard.

"I am sorry." He gave me an apologetic look as a drop of tear ran down his cheek. I gave him a questioning look. "Because of me, we were almost going to lose our baby." He commented and turned around as tears ran down his cheeks.

"Alex, the accident isn't your fault. Both of us know it very well." I stated firmly.

"It was Thalia. How can't it be my fault?" He said angrily and gave me an unconvinced look.

"What? Did they catch her? How do you know?" I asked, puzzled and tried to sit up on the bed, but I lied down, resting my hand on my ribcage, and grimaced as I felt pain.

"Are you okay? You should rest." Alex said, worried as he rushed towards me and grabbed my hand, stroking my hair.

I nodded, bringing his hand towards my mouth, and placed a soft kiss on his hand.

"Even if it was Thalia, it wasn't your fault. She is crazy. What could you do about it?" I commented firmly. "But I know if the police caught her quickly, it is thanks to you." I added, giving him a knowing look.

He sighed and rested his hand on my stomach. "I promise I will do everything to protect you and this little one." He promised, stroking my flat belly.

I gave my lovely husband a bright smile, resting my hand on top of his hand on my belly. "We are lucky to have you, Alex." I stated honestly.

"It is me who is lucky, koukla mou." He gave me a tender look and brushed his lips against mine.

Sixteen months later

"Alex, come here." I shouted, excited.

"What happened?" Alex asked, worried as he rushed into the living room.

I bent down beside Olympia who was playing with her stuffed bunny and said softly." Repeat it again, my princess."

"Dadda." She babbled and looked at Alex as she extended her bunny towards him.

I looked at Alex happily, smiling ear-to-ear. He was staring at Olympia, a wide smile plastered on his face. His eyes were shining with happiness.

"What?! Call me again, my little princess." He asked softly without stopping himself from smiling as he approached Olympia and bent down beside us.

"Dadda." Olympia babbled again and crawled towards Alex.

"Koritsi mou." Alex exclaimed cheerfully and took Olympia in his arms, smiling happily, and placed a soft kiss on her cheeks.

I placed my hand on his shoulder, smiling, and leaned my head on his shoulder as I stroked Olympia's silky light brown hair. Alex placed a tender kiss on my hair and leaned his head against my head, hugging our daughter tightly in his arms.

When you meet that special someone, you'll understand why it didn't work out with anyone else.

And I will always be grateful for meeting this gorgeous Greek man who showed me true happiness, making me feel special every moment of our lives, loving me unconditionally, and our little family which is growing. Soon there will be another addition to our family. Our little Apollo.

The End.
