Chapter 225: Things To Escalate
Rain took a deep breath, her gaze fixed on the beautiful woman glaring at Alexander. She had just arrived, accompanied by a man, and Rain recognized her as Alyssa Lancaster. Though she had seen her in magazines and news articles, this was the first time they would meet in person.
Alexander had already told her how close Alyssa was to Carla, viewing her as more than just a friend, more like an older sister.
"Watch your words, Alyssa, or I won’t hesitate to kick you out of here. Don’t speak nonsense and judge my wife without knowing the facts!" Alexander scolded, his expression dark.
Alyssa’s eyes narrowed as she turned to her brother. "Brother Lyndon seems to recognize her!" she announced. "Look at her carefully, brother. Is she the entertainer from your stag party?" she demanded.
Lyndon gulped, his nervous gaze shifting to his fiancee, Bella, who was glaring at him with reddening cheeks. "I..."
Alyssa shrugged casually, turning her attention to Bella. "It’s fine, Bella. It was just a stag party, and it’s normal. I’m sure his friends were the ones behind it, probably just surprising him," she said, attempting to smooth things over, though Bella’s glare didn’t soften.
Lyndon quickly grabbed Bella’s hand, kissing it apologetically. "That’s right, baby. Alexander was there too, and he actually ruined the party by whisking away the star performer. After that, we all dispersed, and I left right away!" he added, desperate to explain himself.
"That’s enough explaining, brother. Just answer me, look at her," Alyssa demanded again, her tone sharp. Lyndon hesitated, then finally squinted at Rain, scrutinizing her closely. "That’s definitely her. I won’t forget those alluring and seductive fox-like eyes of hers. She had a mole beneath the right one, and her makeup was heavy and dark, but I’d recognize her even with a different hair color."
Then he leaned forward, asking, "Do you have a twin?"
