My eyes narrowed at the cheap impersonation of me, not at all impressed by what I was seeing. “Who are you?” I tried to keep the irritation out of my voice, but it was almost impossible.Her gaze was on me, and she was staring at me with an open mouth, twisting a lock in her hand. Was she dumb? What was so hard to comprehend in the question that I asked that she was taking hours to answer?“Are you deaf, or can’t you respond?" I barked, but I regretted it almost immediately because my forehead flared in pain.I massaged my forehead with my finger, trying to soothe the pain. I was sure she was the one adding to it, because there was no way someone was this dumb.She took one look at me, her pupil widening a bit as she connected the dot, and she was looking back into the room.“Alex? There is a strange woman at the door.” Her voice was shrill and annoying. It was quite similar to those girls that play high school bitches, and it was giving me a major headache.My anger faded into disapp

I was a crying mess as I ran down the street to my hotel room. My eyes were blurry as the eyes filled my eyes, but I didn’t bother to wipe them off even though I could barely see.I was never the athletic type; I hated running or any form of exercise. I was already blessed with a lean body, so I didn’t need that, but that also meant that I sucked at running, but you suddenly get the strength to run when your ex-husband has practically denied you in front of everyone.It hurt—it hurt so damn much, like someone had tried to rip the bandage from my raw skin without trying to soothe it.I ran, ignoring the fact that tears were brimming out of my eyes and dripping onto the tarred road. The funny thing was that no one gave a fuck that a brown woman was crying as she ran. New York being New York meant that no one gave a shit if you were passing through life challenges.It was every man for himself.I finally got to the lobby of the hotel, and the man behind the front desk only needed to take

It has been a week since I left with my shame and ruined dignity as I fled for Alex’s house. The week had easily been the most tiresome one; the project was still running, and every day after work, I took a drive there to see how far it was coming along.I mean, I shouldn't be doing this; I have a project manager and other people in charge, but it was my work. I wanted to make sure everything went well without a hitch.And maybe to pass the time, these days have been seeming too boring for me, and I needed something to divert my attention to.Some days, I meet Jeremy there doing the same thing I came to do, and we exchange pleasantries. Although I am not sure I could call it that, it was anything but pleasant.I would tell him hello, and he would just nod at me. Geez! That was so infuriating. What happened to talking? I am not an agama lizard; you feel the need to nod in response to each greeting.The reason I was more pained was because I knew how we were before, so it only ached my

I shifted forward in my seat, giving it all my attention. It was really crucial, and I didn’t want to miss any detail. “Hmmm, tell me more.”He had taken my eager response out of curiosity and didn’t seem to know that I had an ulterior motive for why I was asking.This was just going to be the perfect opportunity, but only if I made good use of it.“So, apparently, top real estate and construction firms were going to bid for the contract, but as it looks, Alex is gaining the lead, and we have no doubt that he was going to win.” He explained with a little hint of admiration, and I nodded.Of course Alex was going to win; he was no small name in New York, especially in real estate work. He had had years of experience, and of course he was very good at what he did.It was so easy to predict who was going to win, but not if I had something to do with it. I continued pressing her son (I somehow managed to forget his name even though Anna had told me some minutes ago, but that didn’t matter

Come Monday morning the next week, I was ready to start initiating my plans, but first I needed to get through Jeremy. He was the only stumbling block that was holding me back from knocking some blocks from Alex’s high tower.Jeremy was still my partner and friend, and even though we were currently going through a rough patch and we weren’t exactly on talking terms, I still needed him to be on board, and I knew just how to do it.The first thing I did was drive to the same jewelry shop where I had gotten a gift for Charles. Jeremy had always been crazy about one Audemars Piguet wristwatch, and it should be the perfect icebreaker.I had checked the amount online prior to my arrival, and Lord, the gasp I let out. I had broken into a loud cough, almost coughing my lungs out. But I had to do it; if I wanted our friendship to continue, I should be ready to go the extra length."Hello, miss.” The lady behind the counter greeted me with a cheerful smile, and I melted as I saw it. I recognized

“Are you crazy?” Jeremy yelled; his voice would have been echoing all around the room if it were empty. His eyes were narrowed, and he was looking at me like I had attempted to overthrow the sitting president or the royal family when, in truth, I was just telling him what would benefit us.“Geez, you don’t have to shout, you know. I am just looking for ways to push this company forward.” I tried to explain myself better.“There are different ways of trying to grow the company without involving this. This is practically stealing, and you know it is frowned upon in our line of business.” Now it was my turn to frown. I couldn’t believe what he had just uttered from his mouth.“Who said it was stealing? This is business; you have to fight tooth and nail to get what you want. Nothing is handed to you on a silver pallet, and nothing is set in gold. Have you not heard the term "overtaking " before?”He twisted his lips, and his nose flared like he had inhaled an awful smell. “I don’t like th

We rode in different cars to their mansion only because we would be going home after that, and I didn’t want to be too much of a disturbance to him. Jeremy rode in his Hyundai, and I rode in my Cadillac.Jeremy arrived before me only because I was a law-abiding citizen and would never go past the speed limit. He, on the other hand, was a beast on the highway.It was a miracle that I was still alive all through the time he had been driving me around. Jeremy had a thing for fast cars and was secretly enrolled in an underground car racing game.I would never understand what is wrong with men and their obsession with fast cars. But I could ponder about that later. We arrived at the mansion almost at the same time, and we came out of our vehicle and met at the entrance.Jeremy opened the door, letting me go through first, and I entered inside. With him, I was always sure that chivalry was not dead.The mansion was, like always, cold and a little too posh to be a family house. It looked like

The cancer awareness charity was to be held in the evening of the same day, and Charles and his wife had been kind enough to shop for us all—both dresses and suits.It was a black-tie event with a strict dress code, and anyone who didn’t abide by the rules would be kicked out by beefy security. Yes, it was that extreme.The party was for the 1% of the 1%, only the big fish. Men who could afford everything that money could buy. It was even better that it was a masquerade party, and I was actually looking forward to this one because I could blend in well with the crowd.The cancer awareness course was something I would like to give towards, and also, the rich knew how to party; there was always finger food passing around, and they had the best of drinks and cocktails.I heard a knock on my door, and I stood up from my bed, puzzled. It couldn’t be Jeremy because he would have informed me before he came, nor was it Anna and Charles’s, as I was sure they were still getting dressed.My surv
