The Billionaire's Ex-Wife

Answers

I couldn't agree more.

___________________________________________________________

We had taken a route back to the restaurant, where Elizabeth and I had packed into her Ford Fiesta and driven to my house. It was a Friday, to which I was very thankful for, and Elizabeth decided that she would stay the night. An uncomfortable cloud of tension hung over us as she drove, the sound of Shawn Mendes's voice singing in the background.

I knew that tonight was the night that she would tell me. It had only been a few weeks of friendship and a strong bridge had already begun between us. We were familiar with the others thoughts and likes. It was as if our brains had somehow mingled together after colliding in the staff room on our first meeting.

I was currently waiting impatiently in my bedroom, Clover curled in my lap. Elizabeth was in the shower taking her sweet time, occasionally breaking out in bundle of songs. It was quite amusing however to hear her belting out lyrics for T-Pain's music and desperately trying to imitate his deep voice.

"Honestly Alison this sweater is horrific."she said, her nose crinkling as she picked at the vomit green sweater that I had lended her.

It had been sent in by my grandma.

I laughed, silently agreeing. My hate for the piece of clothing was the reason why I had given it to her. Not to mention my excitement to see her reaction.

"God I could just turn up wearing this - she gestured to the sweater, her face contorting - and sweats, and win a prize for the most terrifying costume for Halloween."

I stifled a chuckle and made my way to the made up bed that I had created on the couch, on the other side of the room.

"Are we seriously going to bed now?"she said, shock lining her voice as she looked up at the digital clock.

It was 0034.

Rolling my eyes at her absurdity, I nodded. I usually slept at around 9 o'clock in the night, not too late but since I had become accustomed to the time it was a habit that I couldn't really change.

[A/N: Aaaaand cue everyone's response on what time they wake up and sleep, now! 😂😂]

She grinned nervously at me as she flipped of the light switch and made her way to my queen bed, snuggling under the large blankets. There was silence and we simply went over the actions of the day, each of us in our own world.

Elizabeth was the first to break it.

"Hey Alison?"

"Mhmm."

"You sure you don't wanna come up here, I don't minding getting get freak-ay with you in the middle of the night."

I could imagine her winking, a smirk on her face as she said this. I rolled my eyes, laughing either way.

"I'm good."

She stayed silent, and so did I. Again, no one said anything for a considerable about of minutes until I couldn't bare the heavy feeling that seemed to be weighing me down.

"What did happen earlier today?"

She made no movement, and I could see the faint outline of her tense posture as she weighed her possibilities. Elizabeth sighed, and she swung her legs over the bed and flicked on the lights. I winced, shielding my eyes from its brutal attack.

"You're not going to back down till you get answers, aren't you?"

I shook my head, slowly removing my palm from before my eyes and fixing her with an impassive stare. I didn't want to pressure her into telling me information she didn't want to however I couldn't help the pumps of curiosity and irritation that rung through me.

Could Blake and her possibly be long lost lovers?

I pursued my lips at the thought. I had never heard of one of his mistress's names being Elizabeth. I could faintly remember ones like Brittany and Chloe but never an Elizabeth. But what if he moved on quickly after my departure. I mean, why wouldn't he? He had already countlessly proven that he couldn't give two flying fucks if I had fallen into a pit and died. I know he would barely shed a tear.

"Well then, I guess I'll rip it off. Nice and quick you know? Like a bandage."

I can't help the slight edge in my words,"So tell me."

She quirked her eyebrow, a slight frown playing on her lips. Taking in a deep breath, her fingers clasped firmly in her lap, she opened her mouth hesitantly.

"Blake and I are siblings."
