Alicia's POV
The next morning, I woke up to find myself lying beside Aimy on the bed.
Alexander had slept on the couch last night while I slept with aimy on the bed, but when I looked over, the couch was already empty. The blanket had been folded neatly, and there was no sign of him.
I glanced toward the bathroom and knocked lightly on the door.
There was no response.
Alexander had already left.
Just then, my phone buzzed.
I picked it up from the bedside table and saw a familiar number.
I went back to the hotel to take care of a few things. Karen will come later to escort you and Aimy to the airport.
I stared at the message for a few seconds before simply replying,
Okay.
"Mummy..."
I looked up to see Aimy blinking sleepily at me.
A smile appeared on my face as I walked over and sat beside her.
"Hey, baby. How are you feeling? Better?"
She nodded obediently before looking toward the empty couch.
"Where's Uncle?"
I paused briefly.
