Abigail looked at Alicia and then Zeke to see if they had also noticed the difference in Alex but they didn't show any signs. Maybe they were all still too caught up with the conversation to even notice? When Alex started talking again, she directed her attention back to him. While she had questions of her own surrounding her husband, those questions would have to wait until this conversation was over.
"Just another pawn, huh…" Alex's lips twitched as he echoed Zeke's words because he had thought the same thing as Zeke. He thought that this was a possibility because to Alex, that immortal woman wasn't a big threat to him. He was still stronger than her in terms of power and without Zeke's help, she wouldn't have been able to amass that army. And an even more important fact was that the woman could be killed by Abigail.
