Business Deal With The Hot CEO Chapter 67
“She is not leaving, Mum,” Alex said.Mrs. Peters’s indications wrinkled. They had just celebrated their victory and they were going to start this again?“But Alex, remember that she cheated on you. This will bring shame to the Peters'. Think about your family.” Annie softly said to him, trying to remind him that Clara isn’t who he thinks.“Alex, this is true. This woman has failed you and betrayed you. Why do you still want to keep her by your side?”The more Alex kept listening to them, the more provoked he might become and might be tempted to chase her out. They were right and he can only come up with another strategy. There was no way he could tell them that the marriage was a contract one.“Mum, Annie can still stay here, okay? At least until I properly divorce Clara that is when she can leave.”Mrs. Peters kept mute and thought about it for a while. It wasn't that bad if that was what he wanted to do, so he agreed.In Alex’s mind, he would make sure to investigate this matter.

Clara slightly nodded her head. There was no way she could say no to Alex’s request.“Do you have anything to say?” Alex urged her.Clara didn't know which angle he was coming from. Did he mean he wanted to know what really happened or should she go ahead and apologise to him?“You were meeting Henry?” He began since she didn't know how to start.“Honestly, I wanted to tell you…” Clara tried to narrate to him.“You also worked for him?”She could feel the disappointment in his eyes but he should at least let her talk.“I am being extorted, I needed money, they kept extorting me.”“I gave you money.” Alex shot.“I know but they weren't enough. They kept asking for more.”“Did you tell me?” he asked again.Then Clara kept mute, she held her breath. She Knew Alex was telling the truth. She never told him but that was because she didn't want to bother him. He already gave her enough.“I am sorry.” Clara finally said. At first, she thought her reasons were valid but looking at it now, it's

Clara was in her room wondering what it was Elizabeth and Selene had to expose about Annie.She decided to stretch her ears and listen to every conversation they were going to have.“Sit,” Annie ordered them with a hateful look.Selene wanted to react but Elizabeth tapped her thigh and sat, making Selene sit also.“Why were you denying us access to see you?” Elizabeth asked. She wanted to handle this matter by herself.“Why do you people want to see me? We have got everything sorted out, so why?” Annie thought she could use her position to frighten them but Elizabeth wasn't intimidated at all.“Are you asking us why we want to see you? We helped you get to this place but Clara is still in this house.” “It's not my fault okay, Alex said he would divorce her before she would move out but she is also as good as irrelevant,” Annie explained, seeing how Elizabeth wasn't intimidated by her, made her now Intimidated by Elizabeth’s courage.“So what should we do then?”Being smart, Annie kne

When Alex came home that day, he didn't bother calling Clara to eat. He didn't even care about who was at the dining table with him.Though Annie was still in the house, she was able to act like the credit union and would still be disturbing Clara to pay up the money before they would publish a story on that.After thinking for a while, Clara knew she had no other option than to go to Alex for the money.“Hi.” She greeted him.“Hi.”But the response didn't affect her. She had prepared her mind for it and didn't expect him to still call her Sweet.A lot of things ran through Alex’s mind. Did she want to tell him about Henry or what?Then he asked her to proceed and say whatever she wanted to say.“Those people who are extorting from me are still disturbing me. I don't have any means of giving them the amount of money they require.”While she narrated it to him, she couldn't look at his face. So as she was talking, Alex had stood up and left but she continued to talk thinking he was aro

“Selene,” Henry called out.He had no idea why Selene had fainted. He didn’t even touch her so he didn’t know why she should faint.Elizabeth then came out and revived her. Opening her eyes and meeting the gaze of Henry made her want to faint the second time but it wasn't possible.“What’s happening here?” Elizabeth urged Henry immediately.Seeing how Selene acted at first, she thought it was a minor case but for her to faint due to shock, it must be something very serious.“Ms. Selene, are you sure you would love your mother to be here while we talk about everything?”Selene didn't know what Henry knew and why he referred to their situation as everything but she didn't let her mum stay. “Mum, could you please excuse us?”Elizabeth looked her at daughter before getting up. However, as a smart woman, she vowed to eavesdrop on the conversation.“Years ago, when you came to my office and made me dismiss your sister, what were your intentions?”All those things were passed, so what was H

Clara stood motionless looking at Mrs. Peters. If it was before, Alex would have defended her but right now, there was no such thing.“Ma, I do not love Alex for money.” Clara tried to defend herself, at least, to save her dignity.“Did I hear you say Love? There is no such thing as Love Clara. I am trying to say you married him for money and not love him for money. You were never in love with him.”Trying to mince words to Mrs. Peters was something that wasn't going to yield to anything so Clara didn't bother anymore.“How much do you need?” Alex asked her.Clara looked around. How could Alex be asking her for the amount in front of Mrs. Peters? It was a huge sum and mentioning it here would make everything she said be true.But she didn't have a choice. He was looking at her curiously. He wasn't even figuring out anything like that and she was the only one thinking it through.So sharply, she calculated all it would cost her to settle the credit union and also Elizabeth. A hundred a

Early hours of the morning. Clara didn't admit the fact that Alex or his mother or Annie was in the house. All she wanted to do was to go and settle her debts.She had called Elizabeth and given her the money in secret. She also met with a representative of Annie and paid the fifty million they claimed her mum was owing.How foolish of her not to ask for any evidence, no signing of documents, nothing at all to show that Mrs. Roberts actually owed them money, but she went ahead to pay.But she was not to be blamed, the pressure of having to pay the sum Elizabeth required and bury her mum made her not critically analyze or understand anything anymore.Elizabeth and Selene were rejoicing after getting the money. “Mum, this would be enough for us to shop the whole week,” Selene said merrily.“I will get skincare products and more designer clothes and bags. Young master Alex would find me very attractive from now onwards.” Elizabeth smiled. “You have to take it easy, my daughter. Go and c

“If you saw it indeed, why do you want me to release this woman then?” Mrs. Peters furiously asked, Alex was still holding her wrist and she couldn't do anything about it.“I don't think Clara did this,” Alex spoke.Alex looked at Clara steadily for five seconds and darted to his mum. More like he studied her reaction. “I am certain Clara didn't do this,” he added again.“Young master Alex!” Annie uttered “Alex!” Mrs. Peters called.“Have you been bewitched again, how could you say that, Alex?”Alex left his mum’s wrist. He faced Clara. “Did you post this?” He asked, signaling everyone to focus on her reply.“I didn't post anything. I don't even know what everyone is talking about.”Alex looked at his mum. “Mum, did you hear that?”“Even an armed robber doesn't accept that he or she is a thief so how could you judge by what she says?”Alex didn't know how else to justify for Clara so he just took him with her.“Come with me.” He said and began dragging her away.When they got outsid

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. 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?

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. Surprisingly, it rang.“Clara, where have you been? Are you well? What happened” Mr. Roberts asked at the same time.“Dad?” Clara questioned.Clara and her father are seated at a restaurant nearby. 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
