Semina Inna was furious at how Blake took the side of the poor girl, humiliating his own sister in the process.
Marla very unwillingly peeled her pink gloves off from her hand before shaking hands with Alister, introducing herself as Ryan's sister.
"I believe you have met Regina already. I m Blake, Ryan's brother."
Blake acted very smoothly pretending that this was his first time meeting Alister. He drew her hand up to blow a kiss on the top making Ryan glare at him.
"Now I know why he fell for you."
Blake joked making Ryan just grunt in annoyance. Alister could feel the sheer tension between the two brothers right away.
"Over with the family get together. Mother will you take care of the rest of the show?? Alister is tired, we will both head out now..."
Ryan informed making his mother nodded in approval. Marla just rolled his eyes at Blake who passed a naughty look towards the couple.
"What is the rush??? You both just got here..."
Semina Inna stated, not liking the idea of them spending more time together. She did not want the girl closer to Ryan...she wanted her out before she sealed her place in the Cardoso clan.
"They have just announced the news of being together to the world...they must be tired, mãe....new couples are like newlyweds..."
Blake answered for his brother making his mother boil in anger at how he was pushing these two together, giving them more time to spend together.
"So then we will both head out..."
Ryan let out and gave one last goodbye to his awkward family gathering and pulled Alister out of there too.
They both made their way out of the backdoor to avoid the paparazzi in the front. The black Range Rover was waiting for them and the guard opened the door.
The journey was covered in silence. She could not stop thinking of what just happened.
No one had to tell her that Semina Inna did not like her neither did Marla or Regina. It was only Blake who supported her only because he knew her...appointed her for it.
Her life was never this complex to figure out where it was heading to. She had no idea what was even going to happen next.
When the car stopped in a house that did not look like hers bought her out of her reverie. She sat straight, leaning forward trying to analyze where she was.
"Do not get riled up...we are in my condominium. "
Ryan said, detaching the seat belt from her. Alister looked back at him.
"Why m I here??"
She inquired.
"What do you mean by why you are here?? "
Ryan questioned back, looking at her.
"Yes, Ryan why m I here??"
She counters backed. She had no idea why she was here at all but then suddenly like a boom it hit her...
"To spend the night with me of course..."
Ryan answered for her. Alister shook her head in negative right away, rejecting the proposal.
"I want to go home."
"This is your home."
Ryan pressed making her look back at him with a questioning look thinning he was kidding but when she realized he was not. She said again.
"This is not my home. I want to go home...my home, Ryan."
"Your home is where I m, sweetheart."
Ryan snickered, teaching her face with the back of his hand, trying to distract her and by now Alister was well aware of his trick. So she slapped his hands away from her swiftly.
"I want to go home, Ryan. I m tired. "
Alister repeated making Ryan give her an intense stare before getting out of the car and closing the door hardly.
"Drop her in her apartment. "
He ordered his driver, storming away in a tight tone. Alister knew he was angry and did not like the way she rejected his offer.
________________________________________________
On reaching her small cozy home, Alister right away strode to her room trying not to make even the tiniest sound that would wake Courtney up.
She knew that once up, the girl would try to ask everything out for her which she did not like to do at the time.
She was just too tired for the day. Many things happened. She had met all the family members of her fake boyfriend whom she was supposed to spy on but rather she started realizing that it would not be that easy.
The man was too charming, his looks were irresistible and she could not lie about it anymore.
At first, she thought, that she could come out of this loop sooner but now that she had stepped in, she could see how deep she had got inside of it, and getting out of it would not be easy as it seemed before.
But then there were the one million dollars that she could not just let go of. It was the solution to all of their problems and sooner enough they could even fly off from America to their homeland, Russia.
It was a golden opportunity for her and so she felt like she could not let go of it without giving a staunch fight for it.
The night as she laid down on her not so comfy bed, she could not stop thinking about the events of the day that had occurred.
Never in her life she ever dreamt or thought of ending up in a situation like that ever before...not even in her wildest dream.
Being closer to a man like Ryan and then facing the media press as if she was the center of attraction. Every article, news pieces had her name, their picture they posed together on. Overnight she was the most searched person on the net.
Her life had changed..that was definitely true and there was no turning back from it anymore.
One thing, she just could not grasp in was what would it be like after her job was over...done.
