BILLIONAIRE'S LEGAL AFFAIR Ms. Rodrigo's Message.
Travis stared at his desk. Reports, charts, and files were neatly arranged in front of him, but his focus was not steady.The image of Delaney..her confession, her voice, her betrayal haunted him for days, but now, it felt like he was already getting over her. He had buried himself in work, determined to prove to himself, and everyone else, that he was more than his setbacks and mistakes.He was ready to prove to his mother and even to Delaney that he could be successful.“Mr. Rodrigo,” his assistant’s voice broke his thoughts, “the quarterly report meeting is about to start.”“I will be there, soon,” Travis replied, his tone calm.The meeting started off with a different atmosphere, but after Travis made his presentation, they all nodded in approval. Their faces were full of smiles, as they applauded him. His recent strategies had led to an unexpected rise in stock prices, causing his name to be on everyone's lips.As the meeting ended, one of the senior executives approached him.

"I am glad to have finally seen you." Alison wanted to roll her eyes, but she kept her cool. "You asked to meet with me, Ms. Rodrigo. Is anything the matter?" Alison's tone was polite, but guarded, and for a moment he watched the older woman's mile drop, before she regained composure. "Pardon my manners Alison," Mrs. Rodrigo said, gesturing for Alison to sit down. "And yes, there's something I want to discuss with you." Alison sat down, her eyes fixed warily on the older woman. "I know we didn't exactly get off on the right foot in the past," the woman started. "But for the sake of Travis, please let's put everything behind us and move on " The air around them suddenly thickened, as Alison wondered where the conversation was headed. Of course, she was not a fool. A part of her knew that beneath the surface, Mrs. Rodrigo still harbored the same disdain towards her...and nothing changed over the years. "I didn't like you when you first started dating Travis. I mean...your backgr

Alison stood outside the small bakery, the address scribbled on a piece of paper clutched in her hand, like a piece of treasure being hidden from crazy folks.The letters she had obtained relating to the three elite men had led her to this unassuming location. She took a deep breath, her mind racing with possibilities.Originally, she wouldn't go to this extent for a client, but Travis was more than a client, and although she tried to get her mind away, it kept drifting back to him and all their beautiful memories…The stolen kisses, the whispers which usually sounded as a subtle reminder that she was destined for exploits, their movie dates, although against his wish. Every memory of Travis she had was beautiful, and for that reason she was going to do anything to get him out of the mess he was in.As she pushed open the door of the bakery, a bell above it rang out, and the scent of freshly baked bread wafted through her nostrils, momentarily making Alison forget the reason she was t

Alison's eyes darted around the room, searching for an escape..more like a distraction. But the thugs had her surrounded, their eyes gleaming with hostility.What were the chances she would successfully get out of there unharmed?"I...I don't have an entrance number," she stammered, trying to sound confident despite the fear creeping up her spine.The thugs exchanged skeptical glances, their faces slowly twisting into snarls. "You're not opposed to being here then," one of the growls took a step closer to Alison. "I didn't want to be here, I swear" she whispered, deciding to make an excuse as to why she was there..and maybe, just maybe they'd let her off the hook. "I wanted to ease myself.""Down here" another one scoffed. "Whatever happened to all the restrooms upstairs?"Alison's heartbeat accelerated as she tried to think of a way to figure the situation, as she backed away from the thugs, her eyes darting around the room for an escape. But before she could make her move, one of t

…And then, as the tension began to dissipate, Alison felt a pang of nostalgia, a sense of longing for what could have been. She glanced over at Travis, her eyes meeting him in a brief, charged moment.But as quickly as it had begun, the moment was over, lost in the rush of the wind and the darkness of the night. Alison turned away, her eyes fixed on the road ahead, what was the point of crying over spilled milk anyways, and wishing for what could have been that wasn't?She didn't fight for them enough, neither did Travis, now what?As they drove away from the scene, Alison quickly pulled out her phone and dialed the police department, reporting the illegal club behind the bakery. She provided them with as much detail as possible, including the location and the thugs who had attacked them.This was just the beginning, there was still more to come for the Elite men…and even if it was going to cost the last drop of her blood, she'd make them pay…After she hung up, Travis glanced over at

The police station was a flurry of activity, with officers scrambling to process the numerous arrests made at the club. Minutes ago, a report was made of the illegal club being run under the bakery and swiftly, the Cops went on to make the arrest.The gangs and members were being questioned and although it felt too difficult to be believed, it was quite apparent that none of them knew who the leaders and owners of the organization were, they were simply following orders from superior people and getting paid.Detective Jameson, a seasoned veteran of the force, who also doubled as a very close mutual friend of Alison and Travis, was tasked with leading the investigation. He'd been aware of all that was going on, even before Travis' matter was charged to court, so he understood how deep it was, he also knew that stinger forces were involved.He was determined to get to the bottom of the organization's inner workings and bring those responsible to justice.As the night wore on, the pol

The day of the second trial had finally arrived, and Alison was feeling slightly nervous and confused. She had spent countless hours preparing and gathering evidence, Justice Thompson wasn't an easy one, and he seemed particularly interested in this case.Despite her preparation, Alison just couldn't shake off the feeling of uncertainty that lingered in the pit of her stomach.What if Judge Harold decided to upturn her evidence and rule against Travis?“You can do this, Alison,” she said to herself, staring at her reflection in the mirror, and just then, her aunt, Megan, showed up in her bedroom.Aunt Megan was the exact person she needed to see at that moment, there was just this aura that she carried around, that passed reassurance and peace of mind."Hey, sweetie," Megan waved, and walking fully into the room, she enveloped Alison in a warm hug. “I know this case means a lot to you…but how are you feeling?”Alison took a deep breath, not sure what to reply with. "Although I'm kind

CHAPTER 50"Based on the evidence presented, I find the defendant, Travis Rodrigo, not guilty of all charges," the Judge declared, his voice firm.The Judge's words echoed through the courtroom, as it fell dead silent .“I'll rise,” the judge said and stood to his feet, alongside everyone else in the courtroom, they bowed together too, before the judge headed back to his chamber.Travis let out a whoop of joy and swept Alison into a tight hug. Alison hugged him back, feeling a sense of elation and relief wash over her. She succeeded…once again she'd succeeded and won yet another case for her friend "We did it!" Travis exclaimed, his voice muffled against her shoulder.Alison laughed, feeling tears of joy prick at the corners of her eyes. "We sure did," she replied, her voice shaking with emotion. “I didn't think we could, honestly…Judge Thompson was a hard one.”When they finally broke apart, Alison's eyes widened in surprise as she took in the crowd of people gathered in the hallway

Alison's eyes slowly opened, and she found herself lying on the couch.The living room was bright, as Alison always remembered and the television was still on, the news precisely, and Travis's face still covered the screen.Guards stood at strategic positions, their faces stern and alert."Where...where am I?" Alison stammered, her mind foggy. “I remember standing here just now, so why?”The remaining words got stuck in her throat when she sighted Karen sitting beside her with a concerned expression. "You passed out, and the maids wanted to call an ambulance, but I stopped them," Karen explained gently. “When did you get in here?” Alison asked, feeling a slight headache. “The last time we spoke you were on your way here.”“And that was more than an hour ago. I met you unconscious when I walked in here.” She tried softly.Alison's memories came flooding back, and she sat up with a start. "The news...Travis...the scandal?" she asked, her voice trembling. “They were all a dream, right?
BILLIONAIRE'S LEGAL AFFAIR Scandal.
Alison woke up to an empty bedroom, the television still on, and Travis's stuff scattered around the room. “Travis,” she called and sat up in the bed. “Where did he go to this early?” She yawned and got out of bed, wondering why Travis had left for work without her. Her eyes darted to the clock and she was shocked at what time was. “It's 9 am already?” She gasped and rushed to the bathroom to freshen up.She got back to the room and there was still no sign of Travis, it seemed as though he had not even bee around.She finally decided to reached for her phone to call him. Since they began living together weeks ago, he has never gone to work without her, so why all of a sudden?“Is it probably because of what transpired last night?” She asked herself ad the moment she turned her screen on, but it was flooded with a lot of notifications.70 missed calls from Megan, Carlos, Karen, Drake, and other numbers. Alison's heart skipped a beat as she scrolled through the calls, but Travis's n

The night had descended, casting a dark and foreboding shadow over Alison's apartment. She lay in bed, her body shivering under the duvet, despite the warmth of the room. Travis, sensing her distress, reached out and gently petted her hair, trying to calm her down."Hey, it's okay, Alison. Try to relax. You need to get some rest," Travis whispered softly. “And get a grip of yourself.”“Travis, I can't,” She whispered. “It's just that everything is happening so fast? Like it has already been planned from the onset and is simply playing out.”“How do you mean?” Travis asked, adjusting beside her. “Is there something else you know, that I am not aware of?”“Not exactly. But can't you read between the lines and see what I'm trying to say?” She asked, getting slightly frustrated as her gaze grew distant. “Travis, those men that have been trailing me definitely want something and it is obvious they'd stop at nothing to get it.”“Okay?” Travis raised an eyebrow getting even more confused. “B

“Bruno darling, have you finally decided what you intend to do about Alison?” Mrs. Francisco asked, as she watched a television show with him. “I mean, if you wanted to do anything, then you should start doing it already.”“Mum, I'm planning something already,” he muttered, although he had his gaze fixed on the television, his mind was far away. “Just try as much as you can to stay away from it.”“Bruno, what about Theo? Are you still not going to let him feel your affection? The kid needs you.” She said, her eyes holding a glint of guilt.“Mum…” Bruno groaned. “Please allow me time to think, I already told you that I am not ready to unleash the version of me that the kid brings out.”“Clearly Bruno, you are neglecting the kid. Does that not bother you?” She asked again. “Look Bruno, I'm still a mother and I have the motherly affection in me. Letting Theo stay without your affection will definitely give Alison more grounds.”“Mum, I'm not in the right frame of mind for this conversati

“Calm down, Ally Wally, get a grip of yourself” Karen whispered, her gaze drifting to the road and back to Alison whose hands were trembling against her thighs where they rested. “I know that was quite traumatizing, but come on.” “Karen, I swear you can't understand,” Alison managed to utter. “To me, this goes way beyond being trailed, Karen, the last time I got trailed I was attacked! I was trailed down to my apartment and attacked without remorse.”With her gaze fixated out through the window, Alison's mind wandered back to the attack. “You know… I could have been killed if I hadn't learned Taekwondo back then,” she whispered, pressing her face against the tinted car glass. “Clearly, the men were caught off guard, I could see it written in their faces, Karen, it was all clear! What if I was not strong enough and I got raped? Or killed?”“Alison, calm down, stop overthinking this… yes, we got trailed and almost attacked, but we escaped, right? Is that not all that should matter?” K

Layla kept pacing around her room anxiously, her gaze darting between her wall clock and outside the window.“Where the hell is Spider?” She spat and pushed everything off her vanity table. “Show up!!”After waiting for hours with no sign of Spider, she opened her bedside drawer and took out a pack of Cigarette and a lighter.Then a sharp knock sounded on the door. “I don't want to see anyone, just get out!” She snapped and lit the cigarette, staring out through the window. “Get out!”“You wouldn't even ask who it is,” she heard a familiar voice from outside. “Anyway, it is Spider.”“Damn!! Come on in. Why did you not speak earlier.” She snapped. “So any progress?” She asked, her gaze still fixed out the window.“If I had spoken earlier, it would have been for you to be a bit nice knowing it was me.” Spider replied, walking fully into the room. “Why does everywhere look so messy and scattered, I don't want to believe you lost your mind again.”“Of course, you were not showing up, and

“So, what now?” Travis asked staring at Oscar as they walked towards the elevator which read, ‘out of bound’Only the managing board members were permitted to use it.“Boss, it was in the news last night.” Oscar replied, his voice measured. “I thought we'd talk about it first before I think about how to handle it.”“Of course, it was, and that's why I'm bothered. I hope you didn't make the payments? I mean I hope you did not buy any shares,” Travis asked.“Not yet sir, look the files are here already. I just needed you to append your signatures on them before going to pay for the shares.” He replied, pointing towards one of the files in his hand.“Why do I feel like this was all a plan, supposed to be a set up or something?” Travis asked, his gaze growing distant. “Just a few days ago, Gold&Sparkle Group was doing just fine, and today they've gone bankrupt and are about to shut down.”“In my opinion sir, I think this is exactly why they began selling out shares.

“Hey babe,” Travis said, walking slowly down the stairs, with his phone against his left ear. “You're there already?”“Yes, and I recall you made mention of me letting you know when I arrive.” Alison said and he smiled.“Trying to be a good girl, huh? I like that,” he winked as if she could see him. “Anyway, say me well to Megan, and have fun.”“I will, don't miss me too much though,” Alison whispered and Travis could already imagine her expression.“I won't miss you, trust me, I'll just be here having fun all by myself.” He replied, his lips curling up into a pout. “Take care,” Alison mumbled and he ended the call.“She is definitely going to be the end of me,” Travis grinned and settled into his favorite armchair, phone in hand.“So.. what is today going to be about?” He asked himself. “Oh my goodness, Tristan!!” He exclaimed recalling that he bumped into Tristan at the fundraiser and promised to call him.He immediately dialed Tristan's number and as he awaited a response, his min

Sunday morning dawned bright and beautiful, and Alison woke up feeling like the luckiest woman alive. She was snuggled up in Travis's arms, his warm breath tickling her ear."Good morning, beautiful," Travis whispered, his voice husky with sleep.Alison smiled, feeling her heart flutter. "Good morning, handsome." She whispered back, her eyes sliding open slowly. She shut them back again, before opening it slowly again, and allowing herself get used to the brightness of the room.They lay there for a moment, enjoying the warmth of each other's bodies. Then Travis leaned in, his lips brushing against Alison's in a gentle kiss."I love you," he whispered, his eyes locked on hers. “I have always loved you, my princess, and I will always love you.”"I love you too," She replied, her voice barely above a whisper. Staring in his eyes, Alison asked. “Why are you suddenly sounding like this?”“Nothing much…” Travis trailed off, but deep down, Alison knew it was something else.“My love…talk to
