Capítulo 741: Empty promises

"Are you not going to tell me what is going on?" Dani asked, slightly afraid, seeing the worry lines on his forehead. 

After Alex had hung up the phone and turned to her, asking her to change, she wondered what the problem was. He had turned silent since then. But she let him, thinking that he might need a few minutes before telling her.

Suddenly, he stood in front of her, staring into her eyes in the middle of their room. His face was a picture of a man carrying a heavy burden. She could only wonder what news he had received from that brief phone call.

"I need to tell you something," Alex spoke so softly that it was barely audible in her ears. Or maybe it was the warning bells in her head that prevented her from hearing him distinctly.

But she still understood him, making the hair of her arms stand up in anxiousness and her heartbeat speed up in fear. His expression and his voice said it all. Something was not right.
