Chapter 72

As she delved into the food he had prepared for her she received a call from Paxton, when she looked around the room she was grateful Jaxton was not in view.

“What does he want?” she asked herself out loud.

“Hello sir” she said into the phone.

“I want you to come to the office right now” he barked into the phone.

What the heck! Did this man forget that this was a weekend or what?

“Paxton today is a weekend remember?” she asked him and he stayed quiet for a while just breathing before he finally spoke up.

“Yes Sydney I know it’s a weekend but we need to do something urgently” he said in the phone with a tone of urgency.

Sydney knew it was something serious hence the way he sounded so she quickly got up and rushed ti the bathroom and took a bath.

At least she knew that she was going to attend to Jaxton at 12 AM so she sent him a quick text message informing him of where he was and when it showed blue ticks she knew he had seen it even though he didn’t respond immediately.

    Chapter 119 With every single step that he took, his heart raced ten times faster and he was gasping for breath like someone that just finished a race. *Signs*After much inquiry, Paxton discovered that Sydney was now working as a waitress in one of the restaurants. "What should I do now," he said to him in his car, hitting his hands on the story. "Go to her house or her workplace," he thought again. But then, a thought crossed his mind that answered all his questions. "Would you want a public embarrassment?" A voice rang in his head.

He could feel his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through as he drove his car to her house. When he got there, the door was bolted just as he had expected. "I will just have to wait for her here," he said to himself as another long line of laughter escaped from his mouth.Meanwhile, Sydney was just returning from w

    CHAPTER 118Chapter 118Jaxton stared into his eyes with a racing heart, still contemplating if what he was going to say would get him angry or not. Then he asked him the question first. "His anything the matter?" Paxton inquired noticing that Jaxton was a little bit unsettled. Seeing this as the perfect opportunity, Jaxton dropped down to the ground and picked up the photo of Sydney on the floor."It's about her," Jaxton returned showing the photo to him but immediately he saw her photo, his eyes shit back into their sockets in sudden grief and he shook his head side by side. "No, I don't want to talk about her. Not now, not ever," Paxton returned. Jaxton's heart sank with disappointment but he wasn't just going to give up like that, he was going to press until he agreed. "But," he tried to say but Paxton would not listen to a single word that he had to say. "No buts," he returned. "I only told you that I don't want to talk about her," he ended. But as Paxton already knew, Jaxto

He was so sure that his brother Paxton was unaware of whatever was around and he was going to take him unaware. A dark smile hovered on his face as he thought about taking over the company. "I can't even imagine the look on his face with it would be announced to him," he thought in his head as a dark laughter escaped from his mouth."And once I get this position, I will be able to get Sydney back," he said to himself"I can't wait to see that look on his face when Paxton would be eventually dismissed as the CEO.When he got to the venue for the event, most of the stakeholders were already seated.

    Chapter 115Paxton POV"I swear boss, I would find a means to attach more finances to the already dilapidated market. Just give me time." The words coming out from Justin, the marketing directors were utterly irritating and even propelled my already sour mood."You had one week Justin, one week to make things right. We both know it was your fault that the stock dropped. You were too negligent, too lazy to take the risks that I so desire from you." Despite his stupidity, I tried my best to remain calm, as emotions were only meant to be expressed by the weak."Boss, please give me one more week. I swear to you, one more week and we would be back on top again. One more fucking week boss." I had his termination letter waiting."Take that brown envelope and get the fuck out of my office." I instructed. Slowly I observed his hesitation, before eventually walking towards the brown envelope. Once Justin unveiled the content of the envelope, he dropped to his knees begging."You don't want me

    Chapter 114"Feelings? The night at Hawaii? If anyone had told me that something had happened between you both in Hawaii, I would have slit such a person's throat off." Jaxton had obviously eavsdropped on our conversation. I looked around to see Paxton was up on his feet and the look of guilt was expressed in his countenance."I knew something was off about selecting Sydney to go with you to Hawaii. Heck I was the stupid one. I should have realized right on time that you both had a thing going on." "Jaxton." He shushed me up as as I tried to speak."You do not speak when I am talking to my brother." His words were filled with venom and his eyes held so much rage in them. This was the dangerous version of Jaxton, that I never thought would exist."So tell me brother, how was it? Was it intense? I bet you enjoyed her sucking down your dick and going all the way to your nutsack." Jaxton playing mind games was seriously getting to not only Paxton but myself."Don't speak about her in su

    Chapter 113Sydney POV.Several works to be completed in the office today, but my mind wasn't focused. The memories of the night in Hawaii kept replaying in my head. While the night was fun filled; from my perspective, I knew above everything that it had implications. Regardless of the fact that Paxton may have dropped his unruly attitude towards me, I still can't get over the fact that Jaxton would blow the roof off with his rage, when he hears of my sexual adventure with his brother. The situation was complicated and one that I wish above everything never to happen. While filling up some of the loopholes, left in the documents, the telephone buzzed."Hello?" "My office, now." Paxton's deep voice came through the other side. My heart rate increased and anxiety crept through my skin, wondering what he would think of our adventures. None of us had been able to have a meaningful conversation about it and while it could mean nothing to him, it meant everything to me.Staring at the i
