The Secret Admiral (#2 The Secret Series)
Chapter 39
“I'm not so sure yet, but we'll think of all the possibilities... it could be that he is one of Kerelyn's secret fans who does not like the relationship between the two of you or it could be the person who cut the brake cord and also the owner of the tulip flower it is a different person.” Daniel nodded in understanding all of Alex's explanations, “So... do you still remember when you received the flowers?”
Kerleyn was silent trying to remember whenever she received the flower, “I don't know when exactly, but I started receiving the flowers after the incident three years ago.”.
“You mean when the incident concerns Simon?” Alex asked to further confirm the girl's answer.
“Iya, the incident.. After that I always received the flowers but I do not remember for sure anytime... I remember lately I received it the morning when I had just had an accident at the shooting scene, I took it as a form of attention from my fans because of the injuries I received, and lastly on the eve of Emily's wedding.”
Alex nodded trying to recall all the information he had received, he was just about to stand up when Kerelyn recalled something again.
“The night before I did a photo shoot with Matt at your place, Daniel, do you remember him?”
“Iya I remember.”
“I remember the night before that shoot I received flowers among the pile of gifts I received from my fans.”
Alex re-entered that information for further investigation. They all dissolve into silence and each other's thoughts until finally the sound of Alex's phone breaks the silence, Daniel can see his best friend breathing heavily when he sees the name written on his phone screen.
“Why didn't you lift it?’ Daniel said because Alex just let the postel go off and died by itself.
“Man, I shouldn't have dated my office partner,” Alex said limply making Daniel and Kerelyn look at each other.
“Tadi it's Lucy?” kerelyn asked curiously.
“Yeah... I didn't know that she would be this possessive... You guys wouldn't believe it, she's even jealous of Lexi! My God, what is really in the woman's mind,” Alex said, shaking his head in despair.
“How can he be jealous of Lexa?” Daniel asked while looking at his best friend casually.
“That confused me.. You know, after your introduction to him at The Rock a few days ago, he was always angry for no apparent reason when I mentioned Lexi.”.
“And you often call Lexa?” Kerelyn looked at Alex curiously.
Alex looked at Kerelyn while furrowing his brows, “For god's sake, Kerelyn, Lexi is already like my own sister, don't you think like Lucy.”
“What does he think?”
“He thinks I love Lexi.. ok! You guys don't laugh, I also just found out that he's that stupid.”
Alex again shook his head remembering how Lucy was jealous of Alexa. For God's sake, Kerleyn was eager to shout in front of his handsome face if in fact he was the one who was stupid for not realizing his feelings.
“What really happened, until he thought that you loved my sister?”
Alex took a deep breath before starting to tell a story, “We were just about to go to the movies when I saw a Chihua-hua dog doll in one of the stores that reminded me of Lexi.”
“And you bought Lexa the doll,” cut Kerelyn who immediately got a nod from Alex.
“Iya, I bought it just to tease Lexi and it worked.” Alex laughs makes Daniel and Kerelyn just look at each other see how happy Alex is for being able to prank Alexa, “You guys have to see how he gets angry to beat me with a pillow and Raina has to step in to calm him down,” continued Alex who again laughed when remembering that.
“Dan... did you buy Lucy a doll too?”
“Wait a minute, you mean..he's jealous of a doll? That's right,” Alex said in disbelief.
“Alex, sometimes women are jealous of the little things..believe me,” said Kerelyn sympathetically aware of how insensitive and stupid men are when it comes to women.
“Why didn't he tell me he wanted me to buy him a doll.”
“Because you're the one who should have realized that.”
“How do I know that he didn't say it? I'm not a psychic, Kerelyn.”
“Yeah God, are you always this stupid when it comes to women? I can't believe you're Don Juan NYPD.”
“That's why I don't like long relationships with women, because they are always full of mystery and make my head dizzy with their possessive behavior, they always ask what are they doing? Whereabouts? With who? Even they are angry when we are late to reply to a message or pick up the phone,” Alex said while shaking his head to make Kerleyn again throw a heavy breath, while Daniel can only smile to see both.
But now she realizes that what Kerelyn thinks about Alex loving her sister is possible, but she won't interfere, he would let both of them realize each other's feelings by themselves.
“Alright, I'm home now,” Alex said as he stood up, “I'll call you guys again later... so you can continue whatever you were doing earlier,” continued Alex while blinking one eye made Kerelyn widen her eyes with red cheeks.
Daniel walks behind Alex to take him outside and he'll just close the door when Alex calls his name and whispers, “I don't want to scare you, but I think someone wants one of you both to get hurt.”
“You mean he also wants to hurt Kerelyn?” Daniel asked while whispering in disbelief.
“Look, the one in the car was not just you but Kerelyn as well, and I'm sure the culprit knew that*with it.”
Daniel was silent for a moment while looking at Alex and thinking about his words earlier, and it is true that at this time they do not know exactly who was the target of the destruction of his car brakes.
“Sial! You're right,” whispered Daniel, growling.
“So you guys be careful ok?”
Daniel nods in understanding before Alex leaves, leaving him to think and try to regulate his emotions before entering the apartment.
“So... Where were we?” daniel asked as he sat down next to his lover who greeted him with a happy smile.

The man walked back and forth inside the narrow house filled only by wooden chairs, he was seen talking to himself, occasionally cursing and cursing as if someone was with him.
“Gagal... how can it fail!” with a bright face staring around the house.
“No.. no... I have set it up very well, but the damn thief messed it up!” she screamed again while pulling her own hair.
“Yes, the thief was the cause.not me.” he said with a terrible grin, he now walked up to a small frame that was on an old black nightstand that had been peeling paint in several places.
She took the frame and gently stroked it, “Of course it's not my fault. It's the thief's fault, I can't possibly make a mistake, because I will always protect you, ” whispered while staring at a yellowed photo... a photo of a red-haired woman with a smiling boy on camera.
