The Perfect Wife

Chapter 23. Alex's behavior

Alex has just arrived. The man immediately entered the house to meet Mr. Moritz. During the journey, his heart could not calm down. He still does not think, why his father could block all the cards he has. Even withdrawing cash can no longer.

Upon arriving at the door, Alex crosses paths with Greta. The woman carved a smile seeing Alex arrive with a gloomy face. Greta knew, what caused her brother to be so moody.

"So Alex is angry because his card's blocked, right?" ledek Greta's. Greta's behavior is like that. He likes to tease his brother if he is in trouble. The woman never expected, if this time Alex's emotions were unstable. Alex is really upset over Mr. Moritz's treatment.

"You know about this?" Alex looked at Greta's face with stifled anger. "Tell me. What made Papa block my card?"

"That's because of Lara. He saw Fiona's brother and sister making out in the office. I was also shocked when I heard"

Greta has not finished her sentence. Alex went inside. The man gets even more angry when he finds out the mastermind of all this is Lara. Greta herself held her mouth with a guilty face. He was afraid, because the explanation he said would have a bad impact on Lara.

"Great!"

Alex stepped up with a huff. He stopped when he arrived at the middle room. His breathing was hunting fast due to the emotions held in his heart.

"CORAL!" yell Alex. His voice boomed to the point of making all the workers there choose to dodge. Never had they seen Alex this angry.

Lara who happens to be still in the kitchen soon meets Alex. Hearing Alex's yell, Mr and Mrs. Moritz who was in the room also came out to meet Alex. And so is Greta. He went back into the house. He wanted to go out for a walk.

"Sister Alex," said Lara. Actually, he still can't look Alex in the face like this. His heart still hurts.

Alex walks over to Lara and ....

PLAAKKK

A loud slap landed on Lara's cheek. Alex's palm leaves a reddish mark on Lara's white cheek. It makes Lara surprised not play. The pain in his cheek was no longer felt because now his heart was much more sore. He was silent because he did not know what else to say. Alex's treatment today really hurt her heart.

"ALEXI!" shouted Mr. Moritz. The man saw clearly what Alex had just done to Lara. He does not accept. After all, Lara was currently the daughter-in-law that she cared about so much.

"Pa. Don't interfere, Pa. I just want to educate my wife not to know this!" alex without looking. He again threw a piercing gaze at Lara. "You satisfied, Lara? Are you satisfied to see all this? Or is this what you expected? You want to make the relationship of parents and children become tenuous! You're a sassy woman, Lara!"

"Please say?" Mr. Moritz walked up to Alex. "You are sassy! How dare you take that filthy woman to papa's office. Remember Alex! You have nothing but your own body. All the wealth you have still belongs to papa!"

"Papa always talks about it. Am I not papa's biological child? Am I the foster kid that was picked up from the trash? Papa always forces papa's will. Never thought about Alex's feelings, Pa. Papa should have known from the beginning. Alex has never loved and will never love Lara. The only woman Alex loves is Fiona. Fiona, Dad! Not this damn lady!"

"But that woman never loved you!" replied Mr. Moritz.

Alex smiled faintly. "All are just lies that you deliberately make. From the beginning, my father never approved of our relationship! Papa knows for himself. Only Fiona can make Alex happy!"

"The good lady. Only she deserves to be your wife!" shouted Mr. Alex. "Fiona is a cheap woman. You should know, if you're not the only guy she's with. He's with you because you're rich. If you don't have anything, he'll definitely leave you long ago."

"Lara's just the unlucky lady of my life! If I could choose! I'd rather not marry my whole life than marry an ugly woman like her!" point Alex towards Lara.

Deg.

Lara's heart stopped beating. Breathing's tight. Body shaking. Both of his eyes began to sting. The tears were ready to drip. Alex's words have made her pride disappear. Lara doesn't deserve to be in that house anymore. The man who had married her had considered her a pesky carrier woman.

"Alex! How dare you say such a sentence in front of Lara!" mr Moritz did not accept.

"It's not just that Pa. There's still one sentence you have to hear." Alex looked at Lara's face with sharp eyes. "I want us to get divorced!"

Lara closed her eyes. Along with that, a circle of tears fell down his face. Lara could not defend herself anymore. Even though it sounds very painful. But he has resigned.

"Alex, you." Mr. Moritz held his chest. The man is like a man in pain.

"Father!" Mrs. Moritz and Greta immediately ran up to Mr. Moritz. Alex just stood in his place. He was still angry and did not want to help his biological father who was clearly in pain.

"Alex, take papa to the hospital!" lirih Ny's. Moritz.

"Why do I help a man who never appreciates my feelings, Ma!" Alex decided to leave the house.

"Alex!" shouted Mrs. Moritz.

Lara walked over to Mr. Moritz to help. However, Ms. Moritz pushed Lara's body until she fell.

"Go you! Damn carrier woman. If you've never been in this house. None of this will ever happen."

"Ma, no!" said Greta. He looked pityfully at Lara before shouting for help. The workers in the house immediately ran to help Mr. Moritz. They immediately took Mr. Moritz to the hospital.

Lara herself takes a taxi and follows the car carrying Mr. Moritz from behind. Although he had been expelled, but he would not be able to calm down before seeing his in-laws are fine.

"Pa, I'm sorry Lara. If papa recovers, Lara will leave this house secretly, Pa," Lara murmured inwardly. "Maybe this is the best."
