The Rebirth of the Betrayed Alpha novel Chapter 60

As the defining silence fills the house, Alexandra advances towards the pictures on the wall and imagines her portrait decorating one of the walls, a smile creeps on her face for a moment but quickly fades away as Olivia walks in through the entrance door with a lot of shopping bags.

Dropping the bags down on the table plops down on the couch glancing at Alexandra.

"I need water"

Locking eyes with her, Alexandra smiles but it didn't reach her eyes.

"Are you talking to me?"

"Yes," Olivia wipes the sweat off her forehead.

"Is either you've lost it Olivia or you forgot your brain on your way into the house"

"What? What is wrong with you?"

"I should be asking you that"

"I'm exhausted and dehydrated"

"Is a good thing you can pronounce the word dehydration. I wonder though if you know the meaning of"

Olivia glares at her, grabbing one of the bags attempts to throw it at Alexandra but on a second thought stops herself.

"I only asked for water"

"What stops you from getting it yourself"

"I'm tired"

Folding her arms, Alexandra stares deep into her eyes. "And so? Did I send you to the mall? Did you get anything for me? Why should I serve you when I didn't send you anywhere"

"You're unbelievable" Olivia scoffs, standing up and stomping her feet towards the kitchen, Alexandra catches a glimpse of her shoes, and her eyes widen seeing it was the same pair of shoes Nathaniel had given to her at the inn.

"Damn those shoes, I hate them" she averts her eyes towards Veronica's portrait, a lot of things run through her mind.

"Nathaniel where are you?" She bites her lower lips, massaging her temples gently, lost in thoughts.

Olivia walks back in. "A penny for your thoughts"

"Go to hell Olivia" Alexandra turns around meeting her gaze.

"You are so annoying Alexandra, even when I'm trying to be nice, you still try to be arrogant"

"Look who is talking. Kettle calling pot black, aren't you a hypocrite?"

"I beg your pardon"

"If Satan is to come back and ask God for the will to be part of his kingdom, do you think he will accept?"

Olivia scoffs, confused. "In other words, who is the devil?"

"Do you have to ask, isn't it obvious that you are"

"Fine whatever, just trying to be nice"

"Don't be, that character looks ridiculous on you"

"If you say so" She forces a smile, reclining back to her seat, holds one of the bags, taking out a pair of designer shoes.

"Look at this baby, isn't it beautiful?"

"I like the one in your leg better" Alexandra moves closer to her, and a mischievous smile plays on her lips.

Throwing a weird look at Alexandra, Olivia drops her gaze looking at the shoes on her legs.

"You love these?"

"Yes it rocks"

"Really? Thanks, it was a gift –"
