CHAPTER 25

“How did you find out about this place?” Axel asked his parents. They were all in the living room now.

“Is that what’s important right now? You left the house and made us all worried, not knowing you are here enjoying yourself with her” Mrs. Braun eyed Melanie.

“I think you’re getting something wrong here, I’m not his girlfriend. We’re roommates” Melanie explained.

“Roommates?” Mr. Braun raised a brow.

Axel rolled his eyes before facing Melanie.

“You can go, I’m sorry for the inconveniences” he said.

“She needs to stay, because I’m not understanding a single thing here!” Mrs. Braun shot.

“And how’s that my business? I really don’t know how you found out about my house, but you should take your leave” Axel said.

“Are you chasing us out now?” Mr. Braun asked, staring at his son in incredulity.

“What does that look like to you?” Axel asked back.

“Aren’t you even worried about Ariel? She’s so fking worried about you” Mrs. Braun said.

“Just tell her I’m fine” Axel turned to leave.

“Is that all you can say? How could you for Pete’s sake?! A son of a congressman staying in a low apartment, does that make any sense?!” Mr. Braun yelled.

“Then stop dictating my life with me, do you know how much that annoys me?

I really don’t know why I’m exchanging words with you, but please take your leave and don’t ever come back here again”

“Axel…”

“Please….” Axel cuts her off.

Mrs. Braun sighed before facing her husband.

“Let’s go, honey,” she muttered.

Mr. Braun stared at Axel before looking at Melanie.

“Roommates, you say?” He asked slowly.

“Yes…” Melanie replied.

He nodded and got to his feet, his wife did too as she held his arm.

“We’ll be back soon,” Mrs. Braun said.

Axel rolled his eyes and walked to the kitchen, leaving Melanie alone with his parents.

“Are you sure you’re just his roommate?” Mrs. Braun asked.

“Not his girlfriend?” She added.

“We’re just housemates, that’s all” Melanie said.

“Then why are you putting on his jacket?” She pushed further.

“Honey,” Mr. Braun cautioned.

“Fine, fine. Let’s go” Mrs. Braun rolled her eyes.

“Sorry if we made you uncomfortable, Miss” Me. Braun said to Melanie.

“It’s nothing, sir. Have a safe trip” Melanie shook her head with a smile.

Mr. Braun nodded and left the house with his wife.

Melanie locked the door and breathed out loudly, rubbing her chest.

She stared at the direction of the kitchen before walking to it. She met Axel sitting on a stool, while drinking alcohol.

“Why did you act that way? They seemed nice though” she muttered, walking to him.

“Is that how you go about trusting people so easily? I see why you got dumped” Axel scoffed.

“Hey!” Melanie half yelled

“What? Am I wrong?” He raised a brow.

“Fk you!” She glared and left the kitchen.

Axel stared as she walked out, his eyes fixed on her thighs which were exposed. He took his gaze away and gulped down the drink at once.

Afterwards, he left the kitchen for his room.
