Chapter 707: I want to Protect Martin.
Johnson was looking at the frames on the wall where there are beautiful pictures of Samantha, Alexi and their parents.
Just then a knock disturbed them and they turned their head to the door. It was immediately opened by Quency who is holding their coffees.
"Here is your coffees." Quency said as she walked towards them.
"Thank you." Alexi replied as she took her mug and then Johnson took his mug.
"Thank you, Quency." Johnson said as he smiled at Quency.
"No worries." Quency replied smiling back at him.
"I will leave now... See you guys later." Quency said and Johnson nodded his head.
Quency walked out of Alexi's office closing the door behind her back and Johnson turned towards the pictures observing carefully every little thing in the pictures and smiling at the beautiful captured pictures.
"I guess... You guys really had a beautiful childhood." Johnson said as he took a sip of his coffee.
Alexi smiled walking towards him with her coffee and stood beside him. She looked at the pictures with him and nodded her head in yes.
"Days do go too fast." Alexi said with a smile and Johnson looked at her.
"Indeed. They do." Johnson replied and they both looked back at the pictures.
"Look at this picture... Look how protective you held Samantha's shoulders... Were you always the tomboy and that protective sister?" Johnson asked chuckling and Alexi laughed nodding her head in yes.
"Well... Yeah... Kinda I am." Alexi answered smiling.
"That's good to hear. So, you go all out to protect her since you are a child?" Johnson asked looking at the pictures and Alexi shrugged.
"She is innocent. Very innocent. She is alwaus the girl who would let things go... She doesn't hold grudges like me... She is totally oposite to me. She keeps everything in her heart and won't ever try to hurt anyone.
Instead, she will take all the hurt... No matter how badly she is hurt, she will never show it on her face." Alexi answered looking at hers and Samantha's picture on the wall where they both stood together in their blue gowns... Which looks like they are around 10 years old.
"She will kill them with kindness to be honest. She never intend to be like that... It's not her nature but she will be kind to each and everyone who hurt her. It doesn't matter to her if they asked for forgiveness or not. But, she will help them if they are in need of help...
Well, if I am not wrong, she still look after my Dad's family who left us when we fell into debts." Alexi said and Johnson raised his eyebrows at her.
"Ohh? Is it? She still care about them?" Johnson asked and Alexi took a deep breath.
"She and my mom... They both do care about them no matter what. I am not sure about my dad but... He must know a little things about them. After all, they are his blood. He might not taking them in because he doesn't nonsense again in our home.
Things will mess up if they stepped into our home again. Whatever had happened was enough already." Alexi answered.

"How do you know that Samantha and Mom are still care about your relatives?" Johnson asked.
"I heard them... Talking about them when I got back home from work. I didn't give it a thought but later, Sam tried to talk to me about them but, I told her to don't talk about them with me. So, from then... We didn't talk about it." Alexi answered and Johnson nodded his head in yes.
He looked up again on the wall and frowned as his eyes fell on a picture that he isn't familiar off.
"Who is that with Samantha? I am sure that is not dad?" Johnson asked pointing his finger out at the picture with a frown.
"Ohh... He is my uncle... He passed away when Samantha was 19. Well, He was good but... He changed later." Alexi answered and Johnson nodded his head.
"Samantha liked him... So, she kept his picture here..." Alexi said and Johnson nodded his head with a small smile.
Johnson then looked around and immediately smiled brightly as his eyes fell on a pictures on her desk.
"That's us..." Johnson said as he walked towards the desk and grabbed the small frame.
He saw the picture of them together. Johnson, Samantha, Alexi and Martin in the picture from Johnson's and Samantha's reception. They all were posing together in the picture. It was beautiful and a perfect candid.
"Yes..." Alexi replied smiling.
Then, Johnson looked down at her desk and saw Alexi's and Martin's picture from their launch and the other one where Alexi was kissing Martin on his cheek and Martin clicked the selfie. He frowned noticing the background... Where there are lost of flowers but he is not sure where's the background is from.
It was beautiful and they both really look so cute together.
"These are beautiful." Johnson said and Alexi smiled at him as she nodded her head.
"You really love Martin... Don't you?" Johnson asked staring at Alexi while he kept down the frame on the desk where it was placed before.
Alexi took a deep breath looking at him and smiled nodding her head in yes.
"It will be a lie if i say no right now." Alexi answered.
"So, You love him right?" Johnson asked with a small smile.
"I do." Alexi answered as a beautiful smile crossed her lips.
"I do love him... A lot." Alexi said again making Johnson smile.
"We all know you love him and accepted to marry him... Then, what happened now? What is the real reason behind pushing the wedding behind. I know you both are young but... You did accept to marry him at the end. So, Why don't you marry him now?" Johnson asked and Alexi took a deep breath before she looked up at Johnson.
She looked straight into his eyes and answered.
"To protect Martin." Alexi answered making Johnson frown at her.
