Lexi's POV
I walk up behind him and tap his shoulder.
"Hey you." I say with a huge smile plastered on my face. Robert spins around and his eyes widen.
"Whoa hey? What are you doing here?" His face is riddled with confusion.
I wrap my arms around him giving him a kiss. "I could ask you the same thing" I smirk and he pulls away looking around fixing his suit making me pout slightly.
"I was invited by Blackwell." Robert mutters stepping back grabbing his drink from the bar leaving space between us.
"So was Nat, he's her boss, I'm her plus one." I eye him up and down smirking at how hot he looks in his suit. "You look very handsome by the way." I move closer, tracing my fingers up his chest and he coughs clearing his throat removing my hand from him.
"Thanks, you look stunning." He whispers to me stepping back again, looking at my dress.
Why the heck is he being so weird? It's probably because of the conversation we still need to have, but that's for Monday. My calendar says it's Saturday, so I'm going to enjoy my mans company, or at least try.
"We have to work on our communication skills cause we could've just came together. I didn't know your business trip was to The Hamptons, don't you have a house here?"
Robert opens his mouth, but we get interrupted by another voice.
"There you are mister!" A woman wraps her arm around Robert's. Her eyes glance over to me and she looks genuinely apologetic. "Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt."
It's her. The lady from a couple months back at the office. The brunette I was told who was nothing more than a friend currently holding onto my boyfriend. MY BOYFRIEND!
I look to Robert who's eyes are actively avoiding my gaze, but not hers.
Susan's eyes meet Robert's and she runs her hand up his arm. "Do you two know each other" she asks him looking between the two of us.
"Ms. Adams is one of the interns that got selected from Columbia" Robert Finally says.
Ms. Adams? Rage fills my body. What the fuck is going on here? Why is she wrapped up with my boyfriend??!
"Oh right! I remember you! You must be very intelligent, my husband only ever picks the best."
Husband? Did I hear that right! I couldn't have. I look back to Robert and his eyes are on the floor as he stays quiet.
"Husband?" I quietly ask
"I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself! How rude! I'm Susan Downy, Robert's wife." She looks to Robert and kisses his cheek.
Susan? Suzie Q. I'm so blind. That's it I can't do this.
"If you'll excuse me" is all I manage to say before walking off.
"Of course" Susan yells to me as I get farther away "It was nice meeting you."
Robert's POV
Fuck. Me. FUCK!
"She's cute that one." Susan says patting my chest.
"What? I haven't noticed." Liar. You're Liar. Why did you even lie? Suzie doesn't care Rob, c'mon!
I need to go. I need to talk to her. Fuck. This probably gave her the wrong idea. Dammit.
"Mhm. Right. I'm going to the ladies room." Susan giggles at me and walks away. As soon as she leaves I storm out looking for Lexi.
I catch her walking towards the cars.
"Lexi" I yell out to her. "Lex, Honey please let me explain" she ignores me, not looking back. "Baby."
"No. Don't." Lexi finally stops in her tracks facing me, anger is written all over her face. "How dare you. I can't even... You make me sick. The keeping the kids from me I understood, but this?! It all makes sense! You lied! You weren't protecting them, you were protecting yourself!"
"I'm sorry, but baby listen to me please I swear it's not what it looks like." I move closer to her, but she backs away.
"Not what it looks like? It looks like you're married Robert! I can't believe you kept this from me! I actually thought you cared for me."
"Lex I do."
"No! You don't lie to the people you care for or claim to love. You're a married man Or did you forget that cause you were too busy screwing my brains out? You've been lying to me! About everything!"
"That's not fair, it takes two and I didn't lie."
"Right you didn't lie you just didn't bother to bring it up! You're a prick! And you know what's not fair Robert? The fact that you lead me on. The fact that you never told me you were married. The fact that everything we did was a lie. Was this all just some sick joke? What happened to the 'I love you's'? Were they even real?" Her voice starts cracking and tears begin to fill her eyes. She turns around not looking at me. I can feel my heart breaking at the sight of her. "Go back inside Robert, to your wife. She seems lovely by the way."
I move closer to her as her back continues to face me.
"Lexi, I love you. Just hear me out-"
"I don't want to hear it. We're over." She walks away and I don't go after her. My feet won't move. My heart is too heavy replaying her words over and over agin in my head. 'We're over'.
If only she would just listen to what I have to say.
