Capítulo 124: Cousins

"Of course I have something important to talk! It is about Adam and me, Alice Faye."

This gave Alice a pause and she leaned back in her chair with her arms crossed in front of her as she waited for him to continue. Sighing, Lucas Ivy shook his head and started, "Alice, Adam and I are cousins. Did you know that?"

Lucas Ivy watched in satisfaction as shock flitted in her eyes but Alice Faye but it so covered so instantly that had he not been sure that Adam had never told her, he would have assumed that she already knew. With a small smile, he asked, "You did not know that, did you? But I can understand that. Because Adam does not consider us his family. And I know enough that I don't blame him. But now that he has someone who can stand with him and help him sort his feelings, I cannot help but hope everything will be better soon."
