Business Deal With The Hot CEO Chapter 13
Clara circled her eyes to make sure that those people were not carried away by what Annie had just told them, but no, she was right, they were! Who wouldn’t get carried away when Annie spoke with an accent and when she looked like a model or a celebrity? “Not at all” Clara let out as they came forward to her. “We need to search you. This lady here clearly said you are a thief and even though we won’t be selling to you anymore, we are afraid you must have stolen something from here.” The store attendant explained. Just right away, the manager who had been indoors the whole time came out. “What’s happening here?” She asked. She looked at Annie Cooper and Clara Roberts while waiting for an answer and of course, she already knew who was at fault and who was a high-class citizen. “Madam, what is the problem?” The manager finally directed the question at Clara. Clara couldn’t believe that there were many here but she was the one chosen to answer the question. Obviously, she has been

Clara found it hard to let go of him. His body offered her warmth and comfort. But she had to, she was beginning to fall in love but was so scared as she didn't even know him so well. Alex and Clara left the police station to the store where Clara went to purchase the jewelry. Clara was mute and just kept looking at Alex. “Do I look scary?” Alex asked her, does Clara think he's blind and can't see her? “Not that,” Clara replied, chuckling. “Thank you for always saving me. Should I start calling you my Saviour?” she asked him, still chuckling. Alex immediately waved off that. “No no no. Don't call me that. You can call me other sweet and romantic names like ....” “Like?” Alex folded his lips and cleared his throat. “Ah. Yo..u sh..ould know what I mean.” he stuttered. “I really don't. What should I call you, Mr. Alex?” she feigned innocence. Wasn't she the one who couldn't let go of me a few minutes ago? Alex thought. Why was she pretending not to know anything now. They arrive

“You look so beautiful, Mrs. Peters.” “Don’t call me that yet.” Clara snapped at him, shyly. “Alright. But you are indeed pretty.” “Thank you,” Clara said with a blush. Truly, she knew she looked pretty. She had always been, just that life had been quite unfair to her, hiding her beauty. Alex was almost ready. He just needed to do some finishing touches before they headed out. Once he was done, he came down and they headed for dinner. While he was dressing, his mum called him, probably to know if he was still coming and he assured his mum that he was almost done. However, no one knew that he was going to show up with Clara. Even if that idea was in Annie’s mind, Now she was sure that Clara was in police custody and Alex was coming, it was impossible for him to show up with Clara. At the dining table, the food was almost set. Annie and Mrs. Peters were present. Mr. Peter, who was already old and tired, was also present. He had been the one pressuring Alex to get married. That wa

Mr. Peters couldn’t believe his ears. Even if Clara denied the allegations, he wouldn’t have still let Alex marry her.But she didn’t deny it, she was truly a thief. How can her son want to marry someone like that?“What did you just say, Young lady?”“I was arrested however…” Clara was going to tell him and everyone that she was framed, but Mr. Peters seemed to be impatient.“Alex, are you out of your mind? How can you bring such a girl here? I am calling the police immediately.” Mr. Peter dialed the number of the cops.“How did you escape huh?” Annie Cooper asked, seeing she now had many backups.“True, you don’t deserve those jewelry, pull them off now.” Mrs. Peter said. She walked towards Clara to remove the jewelry from her, but by then, Alex had become so angry.“Mum, don’t you dare!”Alex held his mum’s wrist, preventing her from touching Clara.“Can you see that? Look what this bitch had made our son become.” Mrs. Peter faked a cry to her husband. She knew that he would have the

What the hell are you talking about?” Annie stuttered upon hearing her last statement.“You know that is true ma, she declared interest before you did.”“That’s enough. You may leave now.”“Thank you, sir.'' The manager innocently thanked him and left. She still didn't figure out what the problem could be but she was happy that she was released.The same goes for the cops too. They were dismissed and it was just left with the initial people there.“Now that you all know the truth. Have a great night.” Alex said and left with Clara.His mum tried to stop him but his Dad told her to let him go. He knows how to call him to order so that character wouldn't last long.Annie and Alex’s parents sat at the dining table eating their food and even Annie didn't know what to say so they all became silent.When Alex and Clara were going, Alex told Clara that since they were dressed they could go eat dinner somewhere so their night wouldn't be ruined as well.“You don't have to be so mean to your fa

Clara lifted her face slightly, and Alex moved his head too. He nodded at her meaning he meant every word he said.Clara stayed like she was thinking. How could she possibly sleep with him “Oh.” She covered her mouth. She blamed her mind for thinking dirty.The only way to avoid what was on her mind was not staying with him.“No. I think I have to go.” Clara didn't really dare to tell him No but she just had to.“It’s okay. I shouldn't have asked that.”“Mmm.”“Good night.”“Good night.”Immediately Clara shut the door, leaned on the door, and breathed out heavily. She has not ever been this tense before. She shouldn't have said no to him. She should have agreed. She expected Alex to further it also.But to think of it, Alex was sweet. He was possessive and acted like he wanted her with him all the time. She put her finger in her mouth and found herself smiling.Clara tapped her cheeks to remind herself to stop thinking about that, but again, she remembered how he wrapped his both arm

Clara was indoors. She had no idea of what transpired between her stepmom and Alex. She was not even aware that they had come.She was ready to go to the hospital and visit her Mum like she told Alex.On getting to the hospital, her mother’s condition seemed to have improved. Even though she had still not deposited money, she seemed to be improving so well.“Doctor, I only want to thank you for being patient and still taking care of my mum. I will make sure to start the payment as soon as possible.“Miss Clara, it's only our duty and you don't need to thank me especially.”Clara offered a smile. She was sitting on the hospital bed close to her mum and holding her hands.She will never let anything happen to her mother. Elizabeth and Selene would frustrate her if that happened. They already did, but it will worsen if something happens to her mother.Hopefully, if Alex resolves all the matters going on in his office as he said, they will have a proper discussion.She had been holding her

“Henry Brown,” Clara mumbled slowly. Her words made the two guys who wanted to fight look at her. Alex was confused and Henry was also confused. Henry didn’t seem to recall who she was. Her face was familiar but he found it so hard to recall who exactly she was. Seeing the two guys looking at her, Clara felt so nervous. She buried her face on Alex’s chest. Why was Henry Brown looking at her that way? His expressions were indifferent. Does he still loathe her a lot? Was he surprised to see her? Or was he just not happy? Alex was more confused at the face Clara buried in his chest. He could suspect something was going on, the confused expression on Henry’s face too. “Hey, why are you hiding, you act suspicious?” Henry finally said. He tried to tap his hands on Clara’s back so he could see her face but Alex stopped him. “Don’t you dare!” Alex held Henry’s hands. “Hey, what’s wrong with you two? Why is she hiding? She called my name. Hey, how do you know me?” Henry tried to vent b

Alex put a call to Andrew. He told him a wedding was happening today and he should start sending out cards to people. If possible, to all the guests invited yesterday.“Are you sure this would work out, let's do proper planning,” Clara said, afraid it might turn out a flop.“Today is the day and we don't have a dress yet, even Sophie as the maid of honor doesn't.” Clara expressed more worry.“Have you forgotten who your husband is? You don't have to worry. Everything will be ready in minutes. Let’s go home.”Alex managed to convince Clara that it was possible and the three left for Alex’s mansion to get prepared.“There is an important person I would love to invite,” Clara declared in the car.“And who's that?”“My Dad.”Without much questioning, Alex instructed Andrew to send an invite to Mr. Roberts too. The wedding was strictly on invitation.The wedding was already flying around the whole city. How CEO Alex canceled a wedding yesterday and is having another day.Elizabeth also ma

As Alex stepped out, he began to call Clara’s line but she wasn't picking up.He had called more than twenty times now and there was no answer. He knows this was too sudden and the only thing he can do is to send a message.Maybe if she received a text from him, it would give a clue of what the call was about.Alex composed a few messages, deeply apologizing and telling Clara how he loves and cares about her.“Clara, your phone has been ringing for a while.” Sophia, who was bothered tried to wake Clara, but this time, she was truly asleep.Sophia made a turn to head back to the living room, but when Clara’s phone rang again. She decided to see who it was.“Alex?” Sophia mumbled to herself.Curious to know more, Sophia picked up the phone and read all that Alex said, she was so touched. She tried to wake Clara one more time but she was deep asleep.So the next time the phone rang, Sophia picked it up.“Sweet, you need to forgive me. I will explain in person. Where are you?” Alex asked,

Alex was speeding on the highway. He only needed to get to the location as fast as possible to stop whatever was going on there.His mind was occupied with thoughts of Clara. He was fine, he had been okay. Could it be that Clara never cheated?It was his baby! He got Clara pregnant. It was his Child. Clara never betrayed him.

It’s been three days since Clara started staying with Sophia. Life has been a bit fair.Sophia treated her so well that she was beginning to forget all she had been through. She paid zero attention to Alex and Jane’s wedding also.For someone who had just lost her baby, it was safe to say that Sophia was a wonderful friend.Mr. Roberts has been trying to contact his daughter too. When he heard about the wedding ceremony between Alex and Jane, he was shocked.No wonder Alex refused to further the case of his wife, what must have happened between him and Clara?So at that moment, he got out his phone and called Clara again.

Alex finally opened up to his mother in front of Jane after much confrontation. She was his mum and there was nothing more to hide.“Why did you hide this from me? I am your mother, Alex. Imagine we did not have someone like Jane. What would have happened to our family’s image?” Mrs. Peters calmly questioned her son.Jane hadn't said a word, she was just so happy that everything was working in her favor. So she continued to act naive.“Mrs. Peters, you don't have to blame Alex, I guess he didn't want you to be hurt.” Jane feigned and Mrs. Peters replied to her.“And what about now? Do you know how hurt I am now?”“I’m sorry, mum. It's okay.” Jane embraced Mrs. Peters and that calmed her down a bit.“Son, your father must not know of this. This should be between the three of us. Annie is out of the way and you have seen how slutty that girl you choose was. You have to marry Jane as soon as possible.”Immediately Mrs. Peters said the last word, Alex looked at his mum and she nodded at h

Mandy had thought about everything she wanted to carry out. Watching Clara take all the glory makes her sick.At first, she genuinely wanted to get close to Clara and learn some secrets, but now that she has the power to destroy her, she would!“I will be right back,” Mandy sounded off to Clara. It was a less busy day so Mandy just left for the manager's office without Clara knowing why.Having everything planned out, she spent more than thirty minutes explaining things which got the manager hooked.“Are you sure about this?” The manager asked, failing to believe all that was just said about Clara.“Sir, you can find out for yourself if you wish to.” Mandy guaranteed.“You may leave now.”After Mandy left his office, she came back to Clara like nothing had happened.“What took you so long? Did something happen?” Clara questioned genuinely but Mandy cunningly changed the discussion without Clara figuring it out.“Today is a bit boring.”“Yeah, I guess because the evening just started.”

Mrs. Peters didn't need any driver or escort to follow them around. She did the driving while Jane stayed beside her in the passenger's seat.Jane truly wondered what they were going to do and how Alex was going to react to this. “I'm sorry, Alex. I had to do this for us.” Jane prayed silently in her heart.They arrived at Alex’s mansion and learned that he wasn't at home but at work. Mrs. Peters was prepared for wherever he might be, so they started heading to his office.In the office, the only person Alex practically spoke to was Andrew. He would listen to anyone speak, and acknowledge any information, but would never say a word unless it was Andrew.When Mrs. Peters and Jane arrived at the office, Jane wanted to stay behind, but Alex’s mum insisted she follow.Unfortunately, Alex’s secretary recognized Jane as the lady Alex warned her never to let in. But seeing her with Mrs. Peters, there was nothing she could do to stop her.She was not even able to notify Alex. Before she coul

Jane slightly nodded in affirmation. However, when Mrs. Peters asked her what sickness Alex had, she couldn't say a word.There was no way she would tell them that Alex was impotent, what if Alex ended up hating her the more?But Mrs. Peters rather surprised her. Alex was her son and her emotions were justified.“I order you to begin to speak now! What is wrong with my son? Tell me all you know right now!” she roared and that truly scared Jane.Her desperation has put her in a tight corner. But No matter how long they hid it, Mrs. Peters is Alex’s mum and eventually, she would find out one day.“Speak Jane!” The order came again.Now, Since Jane was shooting her shot also. She would come off as emotional and also behave in all those traits they thought she never had.“Mum, I and Alex had gone our separate ways then, but the truth was that I couldn’t move on. We were so tender to make the right choice and proffer solutions.” Jane began off.Mrs. Peters was losing patience, this wasn’t

After Mrs Peters recognized it was Jane. She was elated, though she didn’t let that reflect in her voice.Soon, they already planned to meet up. Mrs. Peters invited Jane to come over to the house. It wasn’t her first time, it used to be a typical thing then.“Ok, Mrs. Peters. I will just get prepared right away.” Jane replied.“Expecting you soon,” Mrs. Peters replied before ending the call. It was kind of off the way Jane was at her beck and call, but it was a good thing anyway.Back in those days, Mrs. Peters didn’t hate Jane, but she didn’t love her so much either. If she was to choose between Jane and Annie, she would go for Annie.Maybe because she can be able to control Annie and not Jane. Jane always stood out and tried not to impress them or seek their validation of her relationship with Alex.Although both Jane and Annie ticked the boxes and came from prestigious homes, Annie still displayed a little low self-esteem which made Mrs. Peters like her a lot.The call had disconnec
