Business Deal With The Hot CEO Chapter 79
Annie didn’t even care to be sure of her thoughts or wait for a response before deciding to broadcast.During the period that Clara and Alex were in the room, Annie hurriedly picked up her bags to go to Mr. Peters's house.She met Mr & Mrs Peters as expected. “Mum, Dad, guess what? Alex and Clara are finalizing the divorce.”“How sure are you about this?” Mr. Peters requested.“Dad, I am very sure. Alex left work and came back home with Clara today.” Annie narrated, they waited for her to continue as that wasn’t enough reason but that was the only thing she gotta say.As much as Mr & Mrs Peters doesn’t find her explanation to justify the fact that Alex was divorcing Clara, it could be credible because she was living with them. So they accepted the news.After that, Mr. Peter decided that he was going to begin planning for Annie’s wedding. Her parents would be invited in due time since they were out of the country.“Contact all the top personalities in regards to event planning.” He or

When Alex came home that night, he went straight into his bedroom. Despite Annie’s attempt to get his attention, it wasn’t possible.He had been thinking everything through, the fact that Jane was coming to New York and what his relationship with Clara was like.There was only a way to be sure of all these and that was to contact Henry Brown.Although the possibility of Henry telling a lie against Clara because he likes her was there, he would make sure to investigate well before taking action like his parents wanted.Even when a part of him trusts Clara, he also needs to know all those involved in setting her up, and only then will he deal with the people involved.Also, Clara should be willing to understand that he didn’t have anything with Selene.“CEO Alex, I have been expecting your call,” Henry said the moment he knew Alex was on the line.“Let’s see at the restaurant,” Alex replied.“Hey, Director Alex, are you asking me out? Am I a lady?” Henry teased.Alex wasn’t in for all t

As Henry ate in the restaurant, he wasn’t so happy with himself. If he claims to love Clara, then why was he always bringing peace between Clara and Alex?It was meant to be the other way round, he was supposed to take Clara away from him but he was always being nice.He assumed this was his price to pay since he needed to make up for how he treated Clara in the past, he had to genuinely support her.But if and only if Alex doesn’t value her, he would then make sure he takes Clara away from him. As Henry thought about all these, it began to rain.Alex drove slowly in the rain happily, he arrived home a few minutes later.Annie was beginning to get worried because she knew that Alex doesn't keep late nights but he wasn't back till this time.She remembered Mrs. Peters's statement to her, to be on Alex’s side until the wedding.“Young master,” Annie ran towards Alex to hug him the moment he stepped in a little bit drenched but Alex pushed her away.“I was so worried about you.” She mutt

Alex blinked his eyes twice, he knew what Clara was talking about.Slowly he asked her. “Selene?”Clara wore a straight face. The thought of those still traumatized her. Even though their marriage is a contract, she still needed to hear from him, it might not change many things though.Clara nodded.Alex gulped and folded his lips. He placed his hand on his forehead and walked around a bit quickly.When he returned and sat back, he grabbed her both hands. “You're gonna believe me if I say the truth, right?”Clara nodded again, anxious to hear him already.So Alex began to tell her some things. His expressions showed credibility and accountability. But from the way Clara nodded, it seemed she was blaming herself also.“Are you trying to say that the herbs your mother brought weren't for the immune system but to make you want a woman?”Alex nodded.Clara felt all guilty. “I am so sorry for always feeding you that. I guess I fell prey to her plans.”“It's not your fault, Clara.”After th

Alex ensured that Elizabeth and Selene were locked up before proceeding to his office.However, he changed his mind about going back to the office. Clara should be awake now and he should let her know the steps he had taken.He told the driver to take him to the house instead. When Clara tried to call Sophia, Mrs. Peters thought she was going to call Alex, so she took the phone from her and asked her out.Because Clara can't fight back, she left. Just at the entrance, Alex saw her.“Sweet, where are you going looking like this?” Alex could sense that something was wrong so he held her while they entered inside.The moment he saw his mum and Annie. He got it. Without asking what the problem was, he asked them to leave.“Mum, Annie. You two aren't allowed in here ever again.”Alex was so certain they were trying to bully his wife again. He wondered what was going to happen if he did not show up.“Son, are you sending us out because of her? What about the divorce.” Elizabeth tried to g

Jane had already arrived in New York. However, she hadn’t made her appearance outdoors yet because she is a public figure.Before her relocation, she was so popular that everyone thought she was gonna end up with Alex as they have been dating.The news she had just received made her so uncomfortable that she wanted to show her face right there at the Peters corporation but she held herself.Since she landed, she has not even picked up her parent's call nor informed them of her safety.Jane couldn’t just place what was so special about Clara. She had been stalking her social media but she was just an ordinary person below average.What exactly did Alex see in her?In Alex’s office, Clara was quite uncomfortable. Alex was now busily engaged in his system while everyone else was also busy.She felt quite awkward not knowing what to do. Even when the secretary came in to report something to Alex, Clara felt like all eyes were on her.“Sweet?” Alex called her.Clara beamed. She wouldn’t wa

Alex was still conversing with Clara when his phone began to ring. He knew why his father was calling him so he didn't dare pick up the phone.Not like he didn't expect the news to reach his father. He continued his discussion with Clara and before he knew it, it was as if they spent the whole day talking.“Since I get to know my wife more at the office alone, it seems I will bring you here more often.” Alex teased.The joke didn't get to Clara as she could only wonder who had been calling Alex on the phone and why he didn't pick up.“Your phone has been ringing. Aren't you gonna pick it up?”“It's not important,” Alex replied, accepting the fact she didn't catch the joke.Clara no longer felt uneasy after all. Her mind was only occupied with their departure.Since they got lots of side talk as they came in, people are surely going to make comments when they are leaving.Alex had been feeding her with one thing or the other and she was now bloated, yet he wouldn't keep his eyes off h

Alex chuckled. How was he not able to predict this?“Dad, why are you here?” Alex moved closer, trying to protect Clara and shield her from his Dad.Because of Mr. Peters's health condition, he wasn't able to move around.“What was the meaning of your act in the office? How do you want people to view our corporation? Do you know how much sweat that is?”Clara was panicking behind Alex. She hates it when she's the cause of the fight between Alex and his family.“Do you know what?” Mr. Peter asked.Alex was still, waiting for him to say something.“The event planner is done with everything needed for you and Annie’s wedding. It’s either you get married to her and discard this thing,” He made a short stare at Clara. “or use seize to be my son.”“I will make sure to go to the media and denounce you.” He added.Alex was not ready to marry Annie or choose her over Clara. But denouncing wasn’t something he expected from his father. And his father meant everything he said.When Mr. Peters saw

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? 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.

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
