Shattering Hearts

Gathering

Anastasia was very enthusiastic to hear Leonid's story when she found Aleandra in the ravine during heavy rain and during Aleandra's hospital stay.

" Thank you for saving my sister. If there's no you somehow fate my sister."

Anastasia hugged Aleandra again and she was grateful that her sister had returned safely.

"I have to find my son, but I don't know where he is."

Aleandra was back in tears. He doesn't know what to live without Lizzie.

Anastasia grabbed onto Aleandra's shoulder.

"Lizzie's definitely back."

"If not how? I'm.me."me."

Aleandra cried in Anastasia's arms.

" We'll find him."

"I will help you find your son" Leonid said.

Aleandra raised her head." Thank you." Thank you."

" Would you tell Dimitri about Lizzie?"asked Anastasia hesitatingly.

"No. Don'tdon't. I don't want Dimitri to know about Lizzie. He can't know."

" all right. If that's your wish. I almost told her about Lizzie, because I was desperate you disappeared for too long."

"I don't want to ruin her marriage to Sofia."

Anastasia fell silent.

"What's wrong?"

"Since you left, a lot has happened. Sofia is dead."

Aleandra widened her eyes in surprise.

" How did Sofia die?"

" Fall down from the floor of his apartment."

" Oh my God. I really don't know."

"What about Dimitri?"

" He and his daughter are fine. If you want to know."

Leonid, who had been listening to them since, finally said, "I'd better get back to the hotel. It seems like there's a lot you're going to talk about."

"All right, I'll take you home."

They both came out of the apartment. Leonid stopped his steps.

"What's wrong?"ask Aleandra

" Are you going back to him I mean your ex-lover?"

"I don't know. I still haven't forgiven him."

"If I asked you to be your lover would you accept it?"

"Leonid..."

"I know this sounds crazy, but I've fallen in love with you."

Aleandra was shocked by Leonid's confession. He didn't know he would fall in love with her. Aleandra always thought Leonid loved Inessa, because they were so close and so intimate. Anyone who saw it would have thought that they were lovers.

"Thank you for loving me. You are a very nice man. You saved my life. I owe you so much, but I'm sorry I couldn't accept your feelings. Sorry."

Leonid breathed a long breath."I understood and expected it. Looks like I won't be able to replace Dimitri in your heart."

"Sorry."

"No need to apologize."

"That's good too. Bye then. May you be happy."

"You too."

Aleandra looked at her disappearance. If only he could love that man. After Leonid was not seen again, Aleandra walked into her apartment.

The next day Aleandra was surprised to see a woman who looked so much like her on the doorstep of her apartment with two strangers behind her.

" Hi Aleandra Elena! We finally meet."

Aleandra looked confused and she asked Anastasia for an explanation.

"He's your twin brother.""

"Whataa?"

"And they're your real parents."

Aleandra was surprised.

"It's impossible."

" I contacted them to come here" Aleandra said.

Marina who had been so happy to meet Aleandra Elena immediately embraced him as well as Michael.

" I'm sorry."

After they come in. Marina and Michael told me about his birth. Aleandra was very surprised, disappointed, and angry.

"I'm sorry we. We know we did something wrong. We shouldn't have given you to anyone else. Please forgive us," Marina said sobbing in tears.

Aleandra's face was already wet with her tears.

" You guys are so hearty. All this time I thought my real parents were dead and I didn't even think I'd have twins."

" We're so sorry."

"I'm sorry, too, because our similar faces had so many misunderstandings that your relationship with Dimitri was destroyed and my relationship with Ivan was also destroyed. I didn't know I had a twin brother. I only found out not too long ago" Aleandra Elsie said.

Aleanndra Elena hugged her twin sister. "It's over .Don't feel guilty, because it's not your fault."

"Thank you."

"I was very angry at my mother and father for giving you away to others, but now I forgive them, so are you willing to forgive them?"

Aleandra looked at her parents. Everyone makes mistakes and they regret it. He also nodded. Marin and Michael were delighted, then hugged Aleandra Elena.

" Thank you."

Aleandra wiped her tears away. Anastasia was happy to see it. The happy end of the family. If Lizzie had existed, their happiness would have been complete. After they came home, Aleandra sighed, then sat down on the sofa. He read the paper this morning which he had not read. His hands became trembling and newspapers rolled from his hands.

"What's wrong?" ask Anastasia.

He took the newspaper and was surprised to see a photo of a baby girl with a woman photographed with him.

"Lizzie."

🌻🌻🌻

Dimitri who was enjoying his tea in the afternoon was so surprised when he found out there were journalists who managed to take photos of Lizzie. The photo was taken as he took Lizzie for a walk. Dimitri went straight to Esther's aunt.

" I'm sorry, Mr. Dimitri. I've allowed that woman to take a picture of Miss Lizzie. I didn't know that woman was a reporter."

" I also didn't realize when I collided with him at the supermarket. Next time be more careful."

"Well Mr. Dimitri."

A bell rang out and one of the servants told a guest to come to see Dimitri. He immediately went into the living room and was surprised to see who his guests were.

"Aleandra," she said in surprise. [ ]
