Chapter 119: The Confrontation Intensifies

And at that moment, Alex noticed that it was already turning to anger. Slowly, he walked toward them to end the conversation that was going on. Isabella had already begun to sob as she was feeling so emotional, but yet she just tried to hold it in, not to tell anybody, not to tell him anything.

Just then, Alex walked toward them and pushed James backwards. “I warned you, didn't I? I told you not to threaten her, but yet you are still threatening her. Stay away from her. I don't want you anywhere close to her. Know your limits!” Alex yelled and pulled Isabella with him just as they got to the car. He opened the passenger seat for her and noticed she was already crying, making him even more cautious.

“What did James say to you? I told you if he was threatening you, you should walk away. What is your problem? Why are you being so stubborn these days?” he yelled at her, and just then, Isabella looked at him.

“If you find out that I did something much worse than whatever we are fighting for right now, would you let me go or not?” she questioned as Alex let go of her hand.

“What did you do? What is this thing you did? What is James threatening you about? Tell me everything now before I make things even more complicated.”

At that instant, Isabella knew this was a perfect opportunity to tell Alex all the truth. Because if possible, at this moment, he was likely to forgive her. She turned back again to James, and James still had pleading eyes at her. And then she turned at Alex.

“I don't know. I just feel like I can't do this. I don't know if I want my memories back. I have been thinking if I get my memories back, what if I have done something very bad and I get to remember? My conscience and my thoughts would not let me do it. I would not be able to live a day knowing what I did and knowing all the bad things I have done. I just wanted to be sure that you would not throw me away or hate me after knowing everything that I have done.”

She said to Alex as he scoffed. “Really? That's what you want to talk about? And you are sure that that is what you want to talk about? Because from the looks of it, it looks like you just want to be sure if you should tell me or not. If you have any secret you are hiding that can actually help us, then open your mouth and talk. Tell me everything I need to know. I need to be sure. Don't keep me in the blind spots. And whatever James said to you is not the truth. Whatever he's trying to make you believe, maybe you should see him as an innocent person. It's all nothing but a lie. I don't want to be leaving James for any reason. Do you understand?”

He yelled at her while gripping her tightly, but all she could do was nod.

“I did not for once believe him. And I would never for any reason believe him and accept his words. I am just saying that I cannot continue this. I cannot continue this way. I cannot continue pretending like I don't want this. Like I don't prefer my life this way—not knowing anything. For instance, now the girl who came with the video camera. I have no memories of her, and for that, she is free in my thoughts. Patricia keeps reminding me that she is one of the worst enemies I have and she did something unspeakable to me, and I don't wish to know. I don't think I am ready to see that yet. Not yet.”

She said to him before entering the car and using her own hands to shut it before Alex would even do it since he was in so much shock at the moment. He looked at James one more time, and of course, he was not going to let it go so easily. He was more than sure that James had something to do with it. He walked angrily toward James, and the first thing he did was throw his fist, slamming it on James's cheeks as he almost staggered to the floor, blood dripping from the side of his lips.

He used his hands to check it and gasped in surprise. “What was all that supposed to be?” he yelled angrily at Alex as Alex clapped his hands.

“You want to come back and throw it again at me? You are just a dumb old fool who doesn't know where to stop. We aren't even mates. You aren't mates with Isabella at all. Let her go. I don't even know why you have gone back and forth to this police station for hours. We have been here all day, and you have been on our neck all the time. Can't you just let it go? Let her go. You don't have to be around her every time. For goodness sake, she is driving you a waste yet you are still trying to make her cry those tears. You couldn't make her cry when she still had memories of you. I don't even know what got over you. I don't know what made you think that Isabella for any reason would want to get involved with you.”

Alex said angrily as James was still trying his best to be patient. “You don't even know what you are doing, and you don't know what you are losing at this point.”

“And of course, I won't face you, you dummy, to know what you are doing. Continue acting like the fool that you are. Very soon you will realize that you should have acted a bit more calmly. You are just as stupid as you look, and you will continue to act foolish, and I won't even intervene or say anything anymore.”
