    "Huh?"Alexandra blinked her eyes at the door, confused at the whole situation.What the hell had just happened? One second she was talking with her grandmother and the next she's being shoved into a storage room? What the hell?!She sighed out in annoyance and quickly patted through her pocket, searching for her phone. Her movement abruptly came end when she could not feel the rectangular shaped object. Exasperated breaths passed through her lips as she recalled the device had slipped out of her fingers when she had been shoved into the room.'A sneaky attack befitting that of a villain.' She thought with a scoff.Stepping forward, the blonde gently banged her fist against the metal door."Michael? Michael can you hear me?! Anyone?!" She yelled at the top of her lunges but sadly, her attempts were in valid. "You've got to be kidding me." She huffed out and slammed her fist against the door once more, hissing only seconds later as she had accidentally applied too much weight on her sp

    As per Alexandra’s words, all the staffs and workers present were gathered together under Lucien’s command. Whispers travelled through the small number of crowd and each person constantly glanced at their side, muttering words to the next person beside them.In front of them all, Alexandra and Lucien stood with their arms crossed, the blonde observing each and every staff’s moves. They all seemed normal and that proved quite hard to determine the real culprit and seeing as the building was still undergoing constructional work the security camera were yet to be activated so finding the culprit wasn’t going to be as easy as when she had exposed Octavia back at the auction.She sighed. Well, no victory came easy.“I know you all are aware as to why you’re here. Just to be clear, it is concerning what had recently happened to Ms. Grey. Be it a harmless prank or an actual assault, the culprit will be punished accordingly.” Lucien’s deep voice boomed across the space they stood on, echoing

    The employee in Alexandra’s grasp couldn’t do anything but squirm around in a bid to attain her freedom all the while Alexandra watched her with a bored look on her face.Why couldn’t the brunette just easily hand over her cell phone and accept her punishment? What was so hard there?“Are you fed up with your own stupidity?” Alexandra asked and tightened her grip on the brunette’s hair, causing a pain filled yelp to escape from her mouth. “Or do you want me to actually pull all your hair off?”“Let go! Please let go Madam Grey.” The employee begged. At this Alexandra harshly shoved her away and tutted.“Ah, so this dog still knows how to wag its tail.” She turned back to face Lucien and called out. “Tell me, is this how all your employees are? Planning assault on an esteemed business partner?”Lucien remained silent at her words and the blonde chuckled. “And you.” She turned back to face the brunette, briefly glancing at the name tag on her ID card. “Grace Wills, is it?

    Lucien knew from a first glance at Alexandra Grey that he knew nothing about her. The woman he had once been married to had died the moment she signed their divorce papers and the person who was constantly in his field of vision was an entirely different person. A more developed and independent woman, yet his heart still yearned for her, different or not.“Hurt Alexa and I won’t spare you.”“Alexei doesn’t need you in her life anymore, you should understand this much and stop being a nuisance.”But obviously he had blown his chance and everyone he came across that was close to her made that clear. He wasn’t worthy of her, it was a late realization but he peacefully accepted it and decided to make himself a better man, worthy of her time, love and soul. Yet, each time he tried doing so, it seemed like there was always an invisible barrier separating their worlds.Each time he encountered her, she’d always be cold towards him and more than that, there was always this look that settled o

    Alexandra pulled out her laptop and got to work while seated in the back of her moving vehicle. With little to no effort, she had permanently locked Harrison out of the data base and cleaned up any nasty track he might have left.After the blonde was done, she relaxed back and gazed at her laptop’s screen with folded arms and a satisfied smirk on her face.“That’d teach him to know better than sending his dog to snoop around my business.” She said and closed the lid of her laptop, placing it away the next second and finally closing her eyes for some well deserved sleep.Michael smirked from the front seat as he had watched her through the car’s rare view mirror.

    In this world, there are different types of anger. Grief, Envy, Jealousy and many more. What Lucien was currently feeling as he watched the scene in front of him unfold was Jealousy.

    ~Day One Out Of Seven.~Alexandra returned to the Grey Manor that night after her conversation with Eleanor over the phone had ended.The first thing, or rather, the first person she saw as she stepped into the house was Darius.

He asked, his voice dripping with concern and worry.Alexandra softly sighed out. "Calm down, Darius." She said while gently stroking his hair. "I'm fine. I just had to take care of something little.""What?""I found out how Eleanor knew about my pregnancy. The waiter back at the cafe was a spy for her and he must have reported our conversation to her that day." Alexandra informed."What?"

    Six out of seven of those days bad gone by. Eleanor had been unusually quiet. One would have almost thought that she bailed and ran away.But Alexandra knew better than that.

It was just a matter of time until she acted.'A matter of time...' Alexandra pondered those last few words as she watched as the last fragments of oranges, reds and yellows faded into a dark gray. The sunset had gone, and the blanket of night began to cover the world in the darkness of its shadow.After a while, she pulled her gaze away and sighed, focusing on the pile of work that was on her table.Because of Darius's over protectiveness, she had worked less in the last few days and barely ever came to the company.

To make sure that the news of her being pregnant did not reach the ears of any of her foe.
