“I am at the restaurant.” She said as she got closer to the restaurant, but stayed outside.

“Do not lie to me, Ivy!” Bethany shouted in anger, over the phone.

Ivy was taken aback and didn’t know what else to say. She didn’t know how much Bethany knew, and was scared to prolong the lie, but she felt she had to take a chance, and know the outcome.

“But I am the restaurant.” She said, trying to avoid her voice, shaking in fear.

“What kind of chef, answer calls in the kitchen, Ivy? Or do you think I don’t know that you have been on a call before mine, and come to think of it, the call lasted for a long while. You are not that type of chef to answer calls, and keep them for long in the kitchen, when you ought to be cooking, and making sure that the breakfast is okay. So, tell me.

Ivy muttered under her breath.She was scared at the sight of the knife, and thought Bethany could do something crazy.

    “Why the hell is Ivy calling you at this time, Alexander!” Bethany shouted.“Calm down, Bethany. It must be a mistake, okay?” Alexander said, then dropped his phone. “Let’s ignore that, and continue with our business.” Alexander said as he resumed kissing her.Although, Bethany had lost interest in having sex with him, seeing that Ivy had called Alexander at this time.

You are misunderstanding this.”“What’s there not to misunderstand, uhn! Calling you late at night. You ar

Then she got another text from Bethany, which relieved her tensed bones. "Never mind. Something came up, so I will see you, tomorrow."Although, she wondered why Bethany would want to see her that made her come over to her house. And she hoped it wasn't going to be something really scary. Then she looked at Alexander, and heaved an unheard sigh."Uhm… Alexander, this is around the time Piper would wake up to do a few things, and it would be weird, seeing you here. And I also need to catch up on sleep. Need to get up early, tomorrow." Ivy said.Ever since the time Bethany told her she was outside her home, she wasn't comfortable, allowing him stay this long, anymore. And it was best to keep from him, the fact that Bethany had come over."Alright then. I understand. Goodnight." Alexander said, then gave her a quick hug, and they bad e

She had just had a shower, and heard Ivy’s alarming tone, so she came out to find out what was going on.“What’s going on?” Piper asked.“His nostrils. Blood came out.” Ivy said, with a worried expression.Piper bent down to Liam to see the blood from his nostrils.“What happened, Liam?” Piper asked, looking worried as well.“I think it’s because I picked my nose the wrong way.” Liam said, still surprised at their reaction over his nose bleed.“You hurt yourself?” Ivy asked, still looking scared.She knew that if anything happened to Liam, she wouldn’t be able to bear it.

    “No! Please don’t! I am here, already. What do you want from me?” Alexander asked.The man chuckled. “Wow. It’s so nice to see you in person. You look even more handsome in person, actually.”Alexander could not find the right response to what the man was saying, and what he was more interested in, was ensuring that Bethany was fine.“Anyways, you might not believe me, but I am a big fan of yours. I mean, in the business world, you are a guru, and your business tactics has also helped me to improve on some business ideas. But I am one crazy fan.

You should hate your mom, because she now leaves me no choice than to sell you to child traffickers.” Brandon said to Liam.“Please don’t sell me. Take me back to my mother.” Liam cried out as he began to hiccup.“Well, if only your tears were strong enough to thaw my heart.” “Please take me back to my mom.” Liam continued crying.“This is the reason I plastered up your mouth the other time. Do you want me to plaster it up again!” Brandon lashed out on Liam, angrily.Liam shook his head, feeling more scared.“Good.

She had come to talk to her to congratulate her for winning Alexander, although sarcastically, but seeing as Brandon had carried out the task easily, she didn’t bother anymore.“Now, you ought to know that it is completely dangerous to compete with someone like me.” She said to the air, then put on her sun shade and dialed Brandon’s number.“I see you have the child. Good job. Text me the hideout?” She inquired, feeling like a successful mafia boss.The location of the hideout was texted to her seconds after she hung up the call and then she smirked and drove off to the location.

    Alexander was surprised that a month had passed by so fast and he wondered what surprise Bethany had for him.“That’s good news. I hope your journey back to the city wasn’t hectic.” “It wasn’t. Why would it be when the joy of seeing you has filled my heart?” Bethany blushed over the phone.Alexander chuckled awkwardly, then he decided to get off that awkward situation by asking a question. “You said you have a surprise for me. What is it? I am actually curious about what surprise you have for me.” “Yeah. Let’s meet at my house, tomorrow’s morning, then you’ll marvel.” She squealed in excitement. “Honey, I have to go.

He was being rebellious, so he remained adamant about having the bed cover, covering his face as well.”“Mommy?” Liam called out to her in a low tone as he removed the bed cover from his face.“Oh, my goodness.

I will be at your place in less than 45 minutes.”“Oh, I think we won’t be able to meet tonight, Alexander.”“And why is that?” Alexander asked, out of curiosity.“An important meeting came up and I am no longer in the city.

That would be when I get back.” Bethany informed, in a low tone.“But are you okay?” Alexander asked, noticing Bethany’s low tone.“I’m fine. I am going to miss you, Alexander.

But Bethany texted me, saying you were about to ridicule yourself in the company I worked at recently.” Piper replied, looking sad. “And, I am sorry for leaving. I just thought that was the best. You know very well that I did it for your good, right?” Piper sniffed, looking into Ivy’s eyes as she got teary.Then the CEO slammed his hands on the table in anger as he stood up.“Take your emotional drama out of my office, this instant!” He ordered, with his right eyebrow arched.Ivy cupped Piper’s face carefully, with her hands and pursed her lips as she looked at her pitifully.“You have been doing things for me. Now, it is my turn to do things for you.” Ivy said, with firmness, then released Piper’s face and turned to the CEO who was fuming in anger.“I know very well that your phone is probably filled with threatening texts from
