Business Deal With The Hot CEO Chapter 168
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

Clara woke up to another day of yelling by her stepmom. They would do anything to delay or make her late for work, but she was now used to it. She tried everything to please her step mom and did everything expected of her before leaving. “Make sure you do all the dishes and keep the house clean before leaving.” Elizabeth, her stepmom, yelled at her. Clara was calm. She only had to say okay to everything because complaining would only be a death sentence. When she was done, she ran off to her place of work. It had just been one week since she found this job. Every job she got was from one problem to another. In her last employment, her manager refused to pay her her salary unless he slept with her. When she arrived at the hotel where she worked, her boss called her out to give her a final warning in front of her coworkers. “I don't think you are serious with this job, this is your last warning.” He said to her and poked her forehead which made her stagger backwards. “I am sorry si

Clara’s vision was blurry for some minutes before she got back to herself. She didn’t understand why Elizabeth had to slap her but she didn’t blame her at all. She blamed her Dad for always supporting her Stepmom. When she noticed that nothing positive would come out of her pleading, she went to her room to sleep. Sleep was an escape mechanism for her. Tomorrow, she will continue. “You should be even grateful you have a roof over your head. Some people are homeless but yet you are such an ingrate!” Elizabeth screamed as she went to her room. Though Clara did not hear the last part of what Elizabeth said because she already shut her door, she cried in bed till the next morning. When she woke up the next day, she realised she had overslept a little bit. That was not the time she usually woke up, so she rushed to take her shower and got outfitted for work. She was about to rush out when Elizabeth obstructed her way. “Where do you think you are rushing to without getting this house t

“Are we going to heaven?” She asked him. She doesn’t even know if she said that loud or if it was just in her mind. The next morning, Clara woke up and found a man lying beside her. She can't remember anything at all from the club but only recalled what transpired between them last night. He wasn’t an Angel? He is human? What have I done? She thought to herself. The man was still fast asleep, she stole a glance at him, he looked so handsome. No wonder she followed him thinking he was an angel. He was not only handsome, he looked wealthy also, she couldn't believe she must have accepted to sleep with him for money. That thought alone made her grit her teeth. Alcohol was too bad for a light-headed person like her. Without making much noise, she tiptoed in order not to wake the man up. She collected her clothing and took a last glance at him, before leaving the hotel. She went back home but by the time she got back, her items were outside. Her family had thrown her out of the hous

Alex chuckled. He didn't expect Clara to still call him that, now that she was back to her senses. Clara identified the man to be the person from the club. How can she have such a coincidence? she asked herself. Alex stared at her in the eyes. “Ms. Clara, why did you leave so early that day? I woke up and couldn’t find you.” Clara remained speechless, kind of shy that this was what she got to discuss with her employer. Alex could dictate the embarrassed look on her face so he tried to make her feel better. “You are the first applicant to make it to my office. You have passed the interview.” “But there are still people outside,” Clara replied abruptly to him, confused about whether he was trying to say she had been picked. Alex quickly called out to Andrew and instructed him to dismiss the remaining applicants and he complied. He turned back to Clara. “So you see Ms. Clara. This Job is for you, you fit in perfectly for that.” Clara didn’t feel so convinced by his words. Maybe

“Clara?” The three said basically in unison and Alex nodded.“Did she steal your wallet? Oh! You must be the guy she lives with and she ran away with your money.” Selene uttered first.“I’m sorry for whatever issues Clara must have caused you, Mr. Alex, we have tried our best to help Clara but all she does is bring embarrassment to us,” Elizabeth put in.“Mr. Alex, please tell us what she did, we might be able to offer some solutions. How much did she steal from you? I can replace it. This is why I always refer Selene only to people but they are carried away by Clara’s innocent look. Selene, go ahead and apologise for what your sister did.” Jackson urged Selene immediately.“I apologise for whatever Clara did. My family will make it up to you.” Selene apologised, posing as the good person that she was not.“Unfortunately, Clara did not do any of these. It would be an honour if she agreed to see me. Do any of you know where she is?” Alex finally said amidst all the drama.“I don't think

Mrs. Peters didn't find it funny at all but she assumed her son must be playing some kind of game. He appeared to be in a good mood but still, he shouldn't joke with something so weighty like this. “Alex, what sort of joke is this?” She asked, hoping that Alex would confess that it was a joke too. “Joke? I'm playing no jokes, Mum. Didn't everyone want me to get married? This is my wife-to-be, only a few preparations left.” Clara, who had been listening to all that was happening, quickly adjusted her position and sat upright. Mrs. Peters had been condescendingly looking at her all through the discussion, though she hadn't said anything to her yet. To Mrs. Peters, Clara was too small to have that conversation with, she rather have it with her son. “I know you are cracking one of your jokes again. I'm here for a reason.” Alex Peters didn't react in the manner that his mum predicted. His gestures just showed that he was very serious about what he said. “Mum, why should I be joking?

Alex Peters ignored what Clara had just told him. The driver had matched the break forcefully because of Clara’s reply to Alex, but he was quick to apologize to his boss. Clara felt a little regret uttering the last statement. It was truly how she felt but she didn't know why the man kept bothering her. They already made a mistake by having a one-night stand and he should just get over it. They arrived at a flower garden and stopped the car. Alex and Clara came down having a nice view of the place as they walked like every other person there. Clara followed Alex reluctantly and they hadn't said a word to each other. But Alex was walking side by side with her like they were couples. Suddenly, Alex received a phone call. It seemed urgent and he urged Clara to wait while he quickly addressed the matter. “I will have the driver drive me to the office for some clarification. Please, don't go anywhere, I will be back in twenty minutes.” he urged her and before Clara could say anything,

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. Why didn't it occur to him to run a test all along?He couldn't concentrate and drive well. Where would he start from? How was he going to apologize? Where would he even find Clara?But he knows the first step to take, which was to stop whatever marriage between him and Jane.While driving, Alex got out his result and stared at it one more time, this time he increased his acceleration.Jane’s parents were worried, yet they tried to be there for their daughter.After hearing that Jane was getting married to Alex, a relationship that failed years back for some unknown reason, which also contributed to their relocation, they took the nearest flight to New York.“Cal

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.

Mr. Jackson Roberts could not stop apologizing, telling her how he got Annie arrested and how he had divorced Elizabeth, how he believes his wife must have forgiven him al

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
