- Do you really think I can do that?

Bobby was in front of Alex, looking her straight in the eye.

Of course not ! Would she have wanted to scream!

The father of my child is not like that!

But there was Captain Ross and so there were things she couldn't say.

It broke her heart to see him like that.

He didn't deserve this!

- But with a father like yours!

Ross had just said the words he never should!

Goren was mad with rage.

He walked over to the Captain, raised his fist and knocked him down.

But he barely refrains from punching her in the face.

Ross was not very comfortable. Goren had almost hit him.

Maybe he was going too far.

- Your girlfriend told you!

Goren was mad with rage.

He left the room without a glance for Alex.

What could she have done!

She herself had been in shock to know that Mark Ford Brady was none other than Goren's father!

But she knew he was not like her father.

Besides, why would he have killed his brother, when he had done everything to help his nephew. At the risk of staying there and never seeing her son again.

- You had no right!

Goren was screaming, knocking over anything in his path.

Alex had just entered the morgue with Ross.

Ross was shocked at Goren's reaction.

But Alex was angry with Rodger.

She should never have heard about what she had found out about Goren's real father.

She knew how little he was appreciated by their superiors and that might give them a good reason not to keep him.

Alex came to stand beside Bobby, making it clear that she was on his side and not on theirs.

- Let's go out!

Bobby followed Alex.

What was she still involved with!

Why had she reacted again.

Couldn't she let him express his anger when they deserved it!

- Too kind !

Alexandra intervened, stopping him.

- Someone is trying to blame you! Do not fall into this trap. She walked over to him. Think of Jamie! What if you're the one accused of the crime?

He looked at her face, which was so sad, which calmed him down.

Why did she always stand up for him, even when everything was against him?

But Captain Ross should never have meddled with anything that isn't his business!

It was too personal!

And much too painful!

He hadn't been well since learning who his real father was.

And he hated himself more and more!

Jamie and Alex were helping him keep up, but neither knew!

But now Alex knew about it!

What was she going to think of him?

Was she going to reject him?

Would she still want him?

Was she going to be sickened by him?

- I have to go see Gage! He took her hand. We talk about it again this evening if you want?

Alex nodded.

But she knew Bobby was trying to run away from her!

She knew what he was thinking!

That was why he had gotten stranger and stranger over time!

When he had discovered the awful truth!

She mustn't let him down! And she knew in his head he was already thinking what she was going to let him down!

So she won't consider it!

Plus, she loved the father of her child, and she knew he was a deeply good person!

- Would you have had Jamie with me, if you had known about my father? His voice broke. When I didn't even know it myself?

Alex felt his heart breaking.

Bobby was desperately clinging to Alex's waist, raising a teary face.

She put her hand to her cheek, smiling at him.

"You are not your father! And your father does not make you what you are!" She wiped the tears from her fingers. And even if I had known it, I would never have aborted Jamie! She lowered her face, kissing his eyes, his cheeks. I love my son because he is like his father!

She brought her lips to his, kissing them delicately.

Goren hugged Alex tightly.

God he loved that little bit of a woman.

Despite what she had learned, she hadn't turned her back on him.

On the contrary, she was there, and against him, kissing him.

He had thought she would be disgusted with him.

But nothing at all!

- Alex!

She put her finger to his lips silencing him!

- Do not say anything !

He nodded, gazing into the nutty eyes of her.

He grabbed her hand, kissing it.

Alex felt his body catch fire from the kiss.

And look at himself as he threw the entire negligee at her!

Luckily Jamie wasn't here tonight, because from Goren's gaze she knew there was more to be going on than just kisses!

But they shouldn't!

They knew it cough two.

Because if Goren left his apartment early in the morning, and came face to face with colleagues, what could he say?

And it was very likely that they would understand where he came from.

Bobby lifted Alex up, settling him on his thighs, starting to undo his pants.

Alex put his hand on hers, stopping her gesture.

- We don't need Bobby! Not at my house !

Bobby mumbled, which made Alexandra smile.

But this time, he didn't feel like obeying.

So he took Alexandra's hand in his, and with his other hand continued what he was doing.

- Bobby! No…

He passionately took Alexandra's lips, who moaned instantly, but recovered quickly, hopping off Bobby's thighs and pulling away.

- You do not want ?

He looked at her, pleading with his eyes.

It's not that she didn't want! On the contrary, she had them too! But she knew it was too risky!

- You know it's risky! She crossed her arms over her chest, looking away. It has nothing to do with what I want or not!

- But…

He reached out to her, wanting to grab her wrist, but she pulled back.

She knew that if he continued like this she would give in and he shouldn't!

He let his hand fall, stood up, taking his coat.

- Very well ! I am leaving !

Alex couldn't believe his eyes!

He behaved like a child!

She said no to him and he was sulking!

She saw him about to come out, but she grabbed him by the hand, causing him to turn around.

- Bobby, it's not that I don't want to!

He looked up at Alex's face, bringing his hand to his cheek, the read caressing it.

- I am not angry ! Just disappointed! He gave her a shy smile. Next time ... He approached her ear. I will bite you!

Alex blushed fiercely at his words.

He gave her his charming smile.

He was happy with the effect he had just had on her.

She was so cute when she dabbed in makeup.

He took her hand in his, bringing her face closer to hers, and gently took her lips.

- See you tomorrow at work, pretty blonde!

He let go of her hand, leaving her on the landing, or waved a last goodbye to her.

She stayed on the landing until she couldn't see Bobby's car, then walked inside.

She leaned against the door collapsing to the floor.

Her legs no longer held her.

She was still all shivering, her heart beating wildly.

She had told him no, when she was dying, but it was better for both of them.
