Business Deal With The Hot CEO Chapter 37
When Alex and Clara arrived at the hospital, Clara’s mum’s health condition seemed to have improved a lot.Way before Clara made her request, Alex had been funding Clara’s mum’s bills without her knowledge.He pleaded with the doctors to make sure that she was given the best treatment and that it remained a secret. Even though she’d been unconscious all this while, she seemed better that day.“Mummy, look at you. Your health has improved a lot.” Mrs. Roberts offered her a faint smile. She looked at Alex and smiled too. Alex had visited her a few times though she couldn’t remember what he kept saying.Alex stepped forward. Coming between the mother and daughter.“You have brought such an amazing gift to the world. Thank you, Mum, I promise to love and cherish this gift.”Mrs. Robert was still smiling when Clara gave Alex a beat on his back.“How can you skip the most important thing and talk about loving and cherishing?”“And what’s the most important?” Alex asked her.“Mum. I got mar

Clara tapped on her screen again to be sure. She might not have gone to university due to lack of funds but she finished with an excellent grade in high school.What was this? Knowing some of the tech basics, she discovered that someone was manipulating the stock growth from the inside.It wasn't truly going down but being controlled by an insider. Who was that person? A staff or someone else.“Clara, I have been calling you for some minutes now.”Clara quickly dropped the iPad and darted to the door to see Alex, who was standing.“I’m sorry. I didn't hear that, I was engrossed with something.”“It’s fine,” Alex mumbled. They both were silent for some time. Ever since Clara realized what the problem was, she never tried to nettle him.“Let’s have breakfast together with mum.”Clara agreed. Alex must be feeling so lonely but she doesn't know how to act around him. If she acts so pitiful, Alex would suspect she's aware. If she acts nonchalantly, he might assume she doesn't care.At the

Selene was in the sitting room when she saw the news. Was she dreaming? Luck had finally left that unfortunate girl.“Mum, come and see something.” She screamed, which made Elizabeth come out from the kitchen.They watched the news and confirmed it was really Clara and that she was wanted.Joyfully, Selene asked her mum. “Mum, aren’t we lucky?”“This is just the beginning my dear. This isn’t enough punishment yet.”“Right?” Selene asked.Ever since Young Master Alex tampered with their investment, Elizabeth had been plotting her revenge slowly. Apparently, the revenge isn’t for Young Master Alex, rather it’s for Clara. She is the cause of everything in the first place.Selene knew her mum was right, this was just the beginning of Clara’s misfortune.Annie Cooper and Mrs. Peters had also seen the news. They didn’t know what really happened and how that came about.But because Clara was involved, they wanted the cops to take all the necessary action and would even hand Clara over to th

The cameras were flashing on Clara’s face as she was being taken into the station.“Miss Clara, did you do this?”“Why did you do that?”“It's been rumored you have been trying to get CEO Alex’s attention. Is that true?”“You both have been together a couple of times. What's your relationship with him?”Clara wished the ground would swallow her. She never replied to any of those reporters questioning her.Her mind was occupied with her mum. She saw Alex’s reaction before leaving and kinda prayed he would help her mother.Mr. Peters was in his seat smiling at how perfectly everything played out.Oh poor Clara, look how easy you made this. He took a sip of his wine and continued being busy on his phone.Alex stayed till Mrs. Roberts regained her consciousness. She told the nurses to take care of her while he went to the station to see his wife.Mr. Peters had ordered that no one see Clara or bail her, but when Alex showed up, they couldn’t deny him access since he was Mr. Peter’s son.“

Immediately Alex replied to that question, the camera surrounded him. Every journalist is trying to cover for their media houses.“CEO Alex, is the woman Annie?”“Can you confirm what Annie just said?”“You guys are engaged, when is your marriage?”“What made you choose Annie amongst other women?”Alex smiled as he positioned himself forward to the microphone.“I am not engaged but married.”“Married?”“CEO Alex, are you married to Annie?”“CEO Alex, how long have you been married?”Mr. Peter had suspected that Alex was going to say something so he ordered the reporters to stop but they didn’t.Annie grounded her teeth, she was going to believe that he would talk about that bitch, would he?“I am married but not to Annie here.” Alex finally said again.“Who then are you married to sir?”“But Annie just confirmed you guys are in a secret relationship.”Alex wasn’t even looking back as he spoke. He didn’t care about their facial expression or his parents’ presence.“Well, my wife has be

Alex was rounding up in his office. He kept looking at his time to make sure he got back on time. He mustn't let Clara feel dejected or abandoned.With his face still covered, the strange young man left the room after injecting the drug into Mrs. Roberts.“Thank you,” Clara muttered but the young man had just ignored her and only nodded his head and left.He obviously avoided eye contact and was looking down, though smoothly without any suspicions.After Clara sat close to her mum, she seemed asleep now and was resting. She can't wait for her mum to be finally fine. The memories of how her mum tried to defend her back there in Alex’s house reminded her of all she had lacked.How Elizabeth and Selene maltreated her, and how Mrs. Peters insulted her. If only Mum had been fine all along, none of this would happen to her.She held her mum’s hands tightly as she kept smiling at the memories popping up in her head. “Mum, you have to be fine for me, for us.” As she still smiled, Alex had arr

Alex picked up his car keys and drove to the hospital. He didn’t want Clara to come with him yet so he could see if he could do anything.In the hospital, Mrs. Roberts was surrounded by medical practitioners. There was nothing they could do about it anymore. She was dead.Clara wasn’t convinced by Alex’s reply. She knew something was wrong. Something must have happened again.She decided not to take an act again because of the way her last action implicated her. She decided to secretly follow Alex to where he was going.Clara booked a taxi and told the taxi to follow Alex’s car. She was rather shocked that he wasn’t moving towards the direction of his office but still followed him.Shockingly, it was the hospital that Alex was driving to. Alex went into the ward. Mrs. Roberts was already covered.“What even happened, doctor?” He asked.“We are so sorry Mr. Alex. This has never happened before.”As Alex was still going to ask for more details of what happened, Clara came inside. Was th

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.

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 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

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.

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.

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
