Second Bride Young Master
CHAPTER 29 | The Picture

......................

Now, Alessio is having a meeting with the Bratva officials. But this time, Igor Volkov took his sister with him, his name was Elain Volkova.

the girl was eighteen years old. Only one year adrift with Lyra. With brownish black hair and dark brown eyes. Lyra asks how this sweet girl did not become a model.

Currently, they were enjoying tea in the back garden.

"Wow.. Sis, this is really beautiful". Said Elain amazed.

Lyra smile. Elain is really the type of girl who is easygoing and easily acquainted with new people. The girl was not awkward to talk to him either.

"really? Alessio made it for me".

Elain looked at him more and more. "Gee... Young master Alessio really spoils you, sis. That's grand. My brother is so annoying, not charming like young master Alessio"

Thinking about it, Lyra asked. "Your brother is very intimidating, I'm just horrified to be with him"

"just right! sister Lyra will not stand her nature if at home. Set me this and that, El don't play this or you'll get hurt! El take good care of yourself! Huft sometimes I'm so sick of him"

"Haha.. I also have a brother at home. And he's also very overprotective".

"Every big brother is the same". Grouser Elain.

They saw the men chatting casually in the garden-side gazebo. Lyra realized that the eyes of Elain had not been separated from Dominic Ivanov.

"Do you like Dominick?"

Asked like that, Elain became his own club. The girl repeatedly shook her head before giving up. "Yes, I've loved her since I was a kid"

The statement made Lyra widen her eyes. Didn't expect Elain to have been silent about loving Dominic for that long.

"Seriously?"

Elain looked at him sadly. "very seriously. I've loved her since I didn't know what love means. My brother was very rarely home. And he always left me with his friend Dominic. I don't know if it wasn't for Dominic, my childhood would have been lonely. Mama's gone and Papa's always been busy with Igor"

"But I realized that Dominic has absolutely no taste for me. I've received it from the beginning". Sad speech.

Lyra could feel the tears behind her eyes. I don't know why hearing Elain's story made him sad. Alessio had told him about the habits of Dominic who likes to change partners like changing clothes. He couldn't imagine being Elain having to see it all.

"Have you expressed your feelings for her?"

Elain shook her head, "No. But I'm sure this feeling is only one-sided. Dominic never saw me more than his friend's little brother"

Lyra reached Elain's hand on the table and grabbed it. "If he wasn't your destiny, God would have sent you a better one".

Elain's eyes are glassy. The girl held Lyra's hand back. "Thank you, brother, you're my first friend".

"You.... Don't have any friends?"

"No. I don't know why everyone doesn't like me. Sometimes I wonder if my life is really bad luck because of my sin?"

Lyra looked at him dislike. "Don't say that, El. Everything that happens is God's will. If they don't want to be friends with you, they're the losers. From now on, if you want to tell me, don't hesitate to tell me okay"

"Sure brother"

They're speechless. Each one is busy with his own thoughts. Before then, Elain cursed.

"You're very lucky brother. Young master Alessio seems to love you very much"

"Yes. I'm so lucky"

Then Alessio turned around. Their eyes were on each other. The world seemed to stop, under the sunlight that split the horizon.

And it was then that Lyra realized that she loved Alessio Romanov.

......................

He loves Alessio.

He loves Alessio.

He loves Alessio.

One.. Two...

Lyra was ceaselessly circling the room back and forth. The girl clenched her nails nervously. His mind was full of feelings that he had just acknowledged.

Okay, Alessio can't know this.

I think he just wants to cry. Then how is it different from Asteria. They both fell on Alessio. Lyra did not want her fate to end like Asteria.

The girl then decides to look for Alessio. He returned to the back garden but found no sign of the man there.

Lyra also headed to her study.

Standing in front of the dark door of this mahogany, made Lyra realize that since the first time she came here. He had never been in that man's office. He decided to knock.

Geck...Geck...

Geck...Geck...

As soon as the fourth beat and still no authentications from the inside. Lyra idly turned the doorknob and it turned out that the door was not locked.

Opened it. And immediately amazed by the state of the room. The room is very large and looks very regal. Black in color with gold ornaments.

Lyra moved her feet into the room. His eyes were ceaselessly staring in astonishment.

What attracted his eyes was a large photo of the Romanov family. At the scene was Mrs Romanov sitting on a chair, Mr. Romanov standing next to her with one hand on the shoulder of Mrs Romanov. Then the little Alessio who he thought was nine years old stood in front of his mother.

Lyra smiled at herself. Even when he was a child, he looked very handsome. With his gray eyes and black hair. His expression was very flat for a 9 year old boy.

Then he looked at his mother Alessio. She is beautiful and elgean. This is the first time he has seen Ms. Romanov. Everyone said that the woman died, but none of them told her the cause.

That woman is so beautiful and graceful. With her nightly black hair that contrasts with her blue eyes. Lyra could see Alessio's resemblance to her.

Then his eyes looked at one of the photos on Alessio's desk. The photo was of him, taken while he was playing the piano in his white dress under the moonlight.

D*danya instantly warmed up. Does this mean he still has a chance to get the feeling of Alessio?

Lyra then approached the man's desk. He found a lot of stacked documents that he didn't even know what about.

His eyes swept around the room. There is absolutely no photo of Alessio with Asteria where. Then Lyra accidentally nudged the table until the paper fell..

He immediately turned his back on her and intended to put her back on the table. But he saw one of the desk drawers was open and he intended to close it.

His eyes found something in the drawer. With doubt Lyra took it.

How surprised he was to get his childhood photos. Not just one but eleven. Photographed it was seven-year-old Lyra. The background is different too. Some are in the garden, on the porch of the house and others.

He shut his mouth in surprise.

The question is

How did Alessio get this photo?
