The Xi employees have been acting extremely cautious not to get on Xavier's bad side. He came into the office today with a dark expression, his aura emitting fear. Everyone is being meticulous not to make any slight mistakes.While everyone was vigorously trying not to piss him off or get on his bad side, Evelyn was doing the opposite. She has worked with him for years, and his expression no long scares her.She was mad that Charlotte did not show up to work, and she's been doing both her duties as the manager, and that of the secretary.Evelyn was seated in Charlotte's office preparing a contract Xavier assigned her when her phone popped with a notification. She halt from typing, and picked up the phone, only to see It was a message from Charlotte.'What does she take the company for? Is this how to call in sick? I can't believe she got employed' Evelyn thought as she went through the message.She hissed, swiped back to home screen, and her eyes got caught of something. She quickly j
"Is that a threat? What if I don't take down the video? Is it not obvious you're the one who broke into Mr Antonio's home? Why are you trying to deny it?" Scott asked, while he passed him a poster.Scott did it to make sure his suspicious was correct. The video is blurred, but he knows Xavier too well, and was certain he was the one. But since Xavier denied it, he decided to use the press, and upload the video on the internet pointing fingers at him. As expected, Xavier came to him, which confirmed he was right.Xavier took it from him and looked down at the poster. A smile found its way to his lips, and he lifted his head up to look at him."You must be good I guess, to catch Mr cho, there's a reward for it? Justice will be served soon. You should dig in more, perhaps you will find his where about.""Thanks to you, I got to know Mr Cho is the murderer. If you had not dropped frank, I wouldn't have known.""What do you mean drop frank? If you have frank, why didn't you call me?" Xavi
Xavier took one last glimpse at the mirror. He used his hands to brush his light-brown hair to the back. As soon as he was satisfied with his looks, he picked up his phone and eased his step downstairs.Mr Xi watched him as he strides down, looking extremely handsome. There is no special occasion, why all dressed up, he thought.But before he could ask any question, he instantly recalled the girl's turned five today, and he hasn't gotten them a gift."Good morning, father, how was your night?" Xavier asked, as he took his last step down the stairs."Yes. I had a good sleep. I was about to ask why dressed up, but then I just recalled today is the girl's birthday. Are you going out with them?""Yes father. Today marks my first day as a Dad, I want to know how it feels to be a Daddy, I'm taking the girls to school, also the principal asked them to come over what happened yesterday." Xavier's voice was laced with excitement.His father could tell he was happy, he has never seen him this h
"We're here." Xavier announced, as soon as jasper came to a halt. As promised to take them out, he told Charlotte to Inform Matilda to please remind him once it's time to go pick them up from school, which he did keep to his promise.Matilda coerced them have dinner before Xavier came to pick them up. The girls didn't eat much from home, but Xavier promised to feed them, once they're out.The girls began to look at the surrounding, waiting for the surprise, but they couldn't find anything except for the big boutique in front of them."Daddy, where is the surprise? We can't find anything?" Waliyah asked, still looking around.Xavier smiled, and stepped down the limousine. He helped them out of the car, and they all turned towards the boutique."Your surprise in right in front of you. Let's go inside, I want you girls to pick as many outfits as you want, let's change your wardrobe, we're giving out your old clothes."They all froze, including jasper that was standing with them. The bout
It's been pass an hour since Scott concluded on the conversation he came to have with Antonio regarding the incident that transpired in his house. Antonio asked him to wait for Nate to get the clear video clip of Xavier.Nate already contacted an expert, and he volunteered to work on it, on the contrary that Nate will arrange a little payment for his time. "Mr Antonio, I think it will be best I return to the office. I have work to do, if the video is ready, your son can drop by the station and summit it." Scott said, and was ready to use the exit.Jane has been seated with them, and she has been restless. If they get the video, Xavier will be arrested Instantly."Detective, what if he turns out to be the one in the video, what would happen to him?" She asked."He will be detained immediately, and sent to court for sentence. The punishment for murder is life imprisonment." Scott responded, and her heart skipped, "Detective, please make sure justice is served. When my son is back, I w
The sound of his continuous pace got people's attention, but he was extremely agitated to even care. It's been more than twelve hours, and he hasn't heard anything from the doctors.Xavier is scared to lose someone again, especially not Alex. He is the last person he wants to lose, not anytime soon. Alex was the one who came to save him.The door to the surgery room slid open, and Alex's doctor strode out with a smiling face. Instead of taking him to the Xi family doctor, Xavier brought him to his doctor for treatment."Xavier, don't tell me you have been like this throughout the night? I thought I told you to sit down or go home?" The doctor said, pulling out his hands gloves."My friend is in there, and you ask me to go home? This is my best friend we're talking about, I can't just leave.""So Alex lied to me, he said he considers me as a best friend, when he has someone else." The doctor said, using the side of his eyes to look at Xavier.He was trying to crack a joke to lighten Xa
Charlotte had a stressful day at work, even with the stares and murmurs, she acted oblivious and focused on her work at the office. What betide yesterday didn't stop her from coming to the office.She gave herself some words of encouragement, and that was how she successfully work throughout the day.They had a lot of task to tend to at the office, and it will be unfair to leave everything to Evelyn, so instead of hiding over what happened, she carried herself to work.It was time to get off work, Charlotte switched off her laptop, she made sure everything was in array before picking up her bag, and march to the exit.Jasper was already waiting for her at the parking. As soon as she was outside, he scurried towards her and bowed his head in respect.She stood still watching him with a smile on her face. She's not used to people honoring her, what Jasper just did was new to her."Why the bow? Since when did you start doing this that I haven't noticed?""Please come to the car, I will d
"Follow him, and make sure you don't lose him." Mr Xi ordered sternly, immediately Salvador's car drove out of his mansion.After what happened at the boutique, Mr Xi thought there's just one person that could be behind it. He didn't suspect Antonio because he knew Antonio couldn't do such a thing, not when he was still desperate to get his hands on Mr Xi's property.The chauffeur quickly put on the car engine, and furtively followed the car behind, to avoid publicity. If Salvador finds out he is being followed, he won't take them to where he plans to go.Mr Xi stayed quiet, studying the route they're following. It's strange to him that he doesn't know the route. He has been in California right from when his father died, but he hasn't taken the route before.They kept on going for what felt like forever, until the sound of his phone diverted his eyes from the street. He picked it up, it was a call from his informant."Good morning master, I got every detail you need, I have sent them
