GENERAL

"And what are you waiting for? Why are you still standing there?" Lexi growled, darting an irritable gaze over Ryan, who was still grinning because of the embarrassment Donald just received.

Smiling arrogantly, Ryan folded his arms and took steps closer to her. "How can I leave when I still have an unfinished business with you?" He let out teasingly, swaying a flirtatious gaze over her body, and that nauseated Lexi. Anger ran through her like fire on dried leaves.

She snorted, "As long as I can remember, we don't have any unfinished business, Mr. Ryan Middleton. Please find your way to the door. I was busy before you barged in like a stray cat." Expressionlessly, she strolled elegantly to her seat and reclined on it.

Ryan chuckled. He was not ready to back down this time. His motive was to gain her attention, and he was going to do that before leaving no matter what she did.

Without asking for her permission, he settled on one of the chairs in front of Lexi's table and rested

    RYAN"Beep! Beep!!!!!"The incessant ringing of my phone caused me to twitched my face, half asleep, half awake. Who is the bastard disturbing my rest this early morning? I'm not going to forgive whoever is calling me.With my eyes closed, I trailed my hands to where my phone was kept, picked it up, and put it in my ears."Good morning, boss," Gerald's voice rang in my ear, filled with fear and anxiousness.So it was Gerald that has been disturbing my rest? My nose squished, frustrated and pissed up.Finally, I opened my eyes, and I simply said, "Say whatever you have to say and drop your resignation later before the day ends." I pinched the space between my brows."You have to come to the company as soon as possible, boss. The shareholders are about to hold an impromptu meeting and I don't think it's for your good," He reported swiftly and eagerly, causing my brows to crease and my eyes to widen."What!" I spurted out in disbelief. The shareholders are about to hold a meeting behind

    RYAN "I am the CEO." A feminine voice reverberated across the room. The unwavering voice screamed of order and authority, causing me to raise my head and glance in the direction of the voice. My forehead crisscrossed when I saw the person standing by the door. It was none other than Lexi, my ex-wife. "Lexi..." My voice trailed with my eyes blinking continually. My gaze darted over Lexi with my jaw dropped. "President Lexi." Other shareholders in the conference room acknowledged, standing up and bowing their heads curtly. Elegantly, Lexi walked to the table, emitting a sophisticated and majestic aura. Stopping in front of the table, she tossed her designer handbag on it. "And why are you disrupting my meeting, Mr. Ryan Middleton?" Lexi questioned in a hoarse and cold voice, putting on a fierce and unfriendly countenance. Stupefied, my mouth opened but no words came out. I was beyond speechless. My brows creased as I was lost for words. I was disrupting her meeting? And she's the

    GENERALLexi's gaze was unwavering and determined. She pierced it into Ryan's and deadpanned, "Guess what you did, Mr. Ryan." The gaze was so fierce and intimidating that it made Ryan gulp uncomfortably. He rummaged through his head, struggling to remember what he had done to request Lexi's wrath."Could it be because I claimed Isabelle as...?" His eyes widened when it finally clicked on his head. He returned his stupefied countenance to Lexi, who smirked evilly and nodded."Yes! You dared mention my princess's name with that filthy mouth of yours. And what did you say? She's your child?" Lexi remarked, clasped her lips and burst into laughter. "That must be the funniest joke I have ever heard in my life. I guess you've been misbehaving because you have a lot of time in your hands. You are going to realize that there's more to life than creating nuisance in my company and embarrassing your age around me when you start looking for a job to sustain your family and your lifestyle," she

    GENERAL"We are here!" Donald announced, stepping on the brake. Isabelle stood up and glanced out of the window; a beautiful smile was etched on her lips. The glints of excitement and satisfaction glimmered brightly in her eyes."Wow! The mall is so beautiful," Isabelle muttered, grinning.Lexi and Donald shared stares and chuckled. Lexi knew she would like it, so she wasn't extremely surprised by her reaction."You are yet to marvel. Let's step into the supermarket at the mall first," Donald remarked, opening the side door for the little girl to step out. Excitedly, Isabelle descended from the car and leaped into the mall with her mother.Donald had asked to take Lexi and Isabelle out, and Lexi obliged after a brief hesitation and reluctance. On the other hand, Isabelle refused blatantly because she didn't like him and didn't want to choose a man like him for her mother. But when Donald showed her that he was behind and capable of taking care of her and her mother, she took a liking

    GENERALThe little girl blinked and took a step backward, her eyes fixed on the strange man's face. Her body trembled as she clutched her fingers on her dress. She gulped hard."I am sorry, sir. I don't want toy again. My mummy will be upset if she doesn't see me," Isabelle fluently let out, her voice shaky.The man's dark lips curled into a sinister smile, sending chills down Isabelle's spine. Looking at the smile, goosebumps surrounded her and gripped her body tightly."You cannot reject my gift, darling. You just need to wait so I can pick up the money in my car. We are already beside the car, aren't we?" He muttered, grinning. With a horror glare, Isabelle shook her head and planned on taking steps backward. However, as soon as she did that, she hit her back against a strong surface, causing her to tilt her head. "Ah!" She gasped in fear when she saw who was behind her. It was a man who had different scars on his face, and his eyes were as red as fire. He had bad intent as he gla

    GENERAL"Are you sure she came to this place?" Ryan questioned with a frown, holding his phone tightly in his right ear."Yes, boss. She went in with her daughter and a man." A masculine voice answered on the other side of the phone.With crinkled brows, Ryan heaved, pinching the space between his brows. "Okay then. Continue to keep watch and let me know as soon as she leaves here." He ordered, and the person at the other side shouted in understanding, "Yes, sir."Ever since the challenge between Ryan and Lexi, he has been trailing her and stalking her. He knew that he had lost the battle, and the only way he could take back all that belonged to him was getting Lexi to forgive him and perhaps fall in love with him again.It wouldn't be easy, but he was ready to give it what it takes. He wanted Lexi's love so that he would be able to get back his company, which she took away from him."You will be in trouble if I do not find her here," Ryan threatened coldly and disconnected the call.

    GENERAL"You will be in trouble if you lay your filthy hands on my daughter," Ryan warned, his voice lingering in the air and interrupting the action the man was about to make, causing his hands to hang in the air as he tilted his head in the direction of the voice just to see what was happening.The little Isabelle's eyes widened when she sighted the man from the airport. She heard that he called her his child but never ascribed meaning to it. All she wanted was how to save herself from the dangerous men hovering around her. Just to make the plan go smoothly, she joined in and shouted, "Daddy!" For a few seconds, Ryan was dazed by the name Isabelle called her. Different questions ran through his head. "Does she know that I'm her father? Has Lexi told her already?" He thought. To be honest, he found the name he called her with her tiny little voice satisfying and relaxing. He enjoyed it and wanted more of it. When she was still two, she referred to him as "Dada." Thinking about it no

    LEXII knew the way I spoke to Donald was wrong, but I had no choice. He really needs to stop chiming in on my discussion with Ryan. I am the only one who knew the reason I have been acting this way. It was already embarrassing enough that I had misunderstood Ryan and accused him of hurting my daughter when he, in fact, saved her. He shouldn't worsen the situation by rubbing it on my face that I just accused the wrong person.But I don't care. Ryan got what he deserved. He was a bad man and wouldn't be known for good things even if he did them."Mommy, that Mister really didn't do it. He saved me from the bad guys who tried to take me away." Isabelle's voice echoed in my ears, dragging me out of my train of thoughts.Thinking about it now, I couldn't help but be scared. Goosebumps lingered on my body and gripped me tightly as I thought about the whole thing. Some people really tried to kidnap my daughter? But why would they do that? Who would want to kidnap a little but sweet soul lik

    GENERALRyan staggered backward when his eyes locked with Lexi's mother's fierce eyes. He swallowed hard as he blinked while swirling to all sides."What the hell are you doing in my house?" Mrs. Alexandra shouted at the top of her lungs, glaring at him sternly.Ryan's gaze was fixed on her. His lashes flickered a few times and broke into another round of tears suddenly. Bending, he covered his watery eyes and cried profusely."Mother-in-law, please forgive me. I want my Lexi back. Please, let her come back to me," he apologized in between his tears.Mrs. Alexandra's body stiffened at his sudden outburst. Her face flushed, and she felt flattered by his words. However, before she could fall for that, she hissed and snapped at him, "Don't call me your mother-in-law. I am not your mother-in-law. I would rather marry my daughter than give her to a horrible man like you." Ryan kneeled on the floor and wrapped his hands around Mrs. Alexandra's legs. "Please, mother-in-law. Let me see her t

    GeneralThe banging sound prompted the security alertness. The two security guards, situated at the entrance, stepped out of the gate and were surprised when they saw a car that had bumped into the car. One of the men rushed to the side and pulled the car door to open it. Luckily, it wasn't locked, so they were able to pull it open."I need to see Lexi. Please, let me see Lexi," Ryan slurred, staggering out of the car and slamming the door.The security men's eyes widened by the action. He was here to see Lexi? What was his business with her? At first, his face didn't seem familiar to them until it became clearer, and that was when they remembered that he was the same man Lexi had a scandal with. He was the one whose picture was flying all over the media with Lexi's.Seeing him at the mansion caused their brows to crease. They wondered if the news circulating on the internet was true."M... Mr. Ryan," One of the men called, shocked."I want to see Lexi. Let me see Lexi." He shoved t

    JASMINEYeah, I cried. I couldn't believe that he loved her. I knew he had been chasing after her, but I didn't presume he would affirm that he truly loved her. It felt as though my heart was being pierced repeatedly with needles when he called Lexi the woman he loved. Why...? Why does it have to be Lexi...? Why can't it be me? Why does everything have to revolve around that good-for-nothing, female? Why is she the lucky one? Why am I always unfortunate?Angrily, I stormed to my bedroom and snatched the phone lying on the bed. I was about to make a phone call when that bastard, Ryan, came to display his foolishness in my house. My blood boiled and balls of fury rolled over me as I stared at Emily's number, listening to the phone ring and anticipating her to pick it up. Unfortunately for her, she picked up the call at the fourth ring."Hey, Jasmine! What's up?" She asked over the phone. The timbre of her voice increased the anger surge within me. If only I could see her right now and

    RYANLike a madman, I zoomed off to Jasmine's house. Thankfully, it was already dark and safer to break the traffic rules without having to pay any fines. I was able to reduce the journey from fifty minutes to thirty minutes because of the speed I drove the car. I dashed out of the car and stormed toward Jasmine's door without closing the door of the car.Impatiently and angrily, I thumped on her door. I could hear a response from inside, but that wasn't what I wanted. I need to see her horrible face and teach her a lesson she will never forget in a hurry.Again, I punched her door fiercely. Another response came, but harsher this time. Just as I was about to knock on the door one more time, the door opened and an unfamiliar face came into view. Her expression was hard, but it instantly became soft when she saw me.For a reason, I could discern that this person knew who I was because why would her expression change the moment she realized I was at the door? But I didn't even know he

    RYANI am tired. I am really tired of the constant trouble I have been fighting with ever since Lexi returned to the country. If it wasn't this, it would be that. There hasn't been a day of resting. Either I am dealing with this or with that.Just when I thought Lexi was warming up to me, dirty news was revealed on the internet about us. My pictures and our pictures have been flying all over the Internet, and Lexi didn't want to believe that I wasn't the one behind them. Yes, I wanted her. Yes, I wanted my company back, but I wouldn't stoop so low to do something as embarrassing as that. She didn't believe it. I could see the disappointment and pain in her eyes as she looked at me. The last time I saw this was four years ago when she signed the divorce papers. I could remember those eyes because they had been engraved in my head ever since. "Whoa! I don't think you can ever win her back," Casper let out, taking the cocktails from the bartender who was standing in front of us and pu

    GENERAL"Are you sure this will work?" Jasmine asked, worriedly, glancing at the news headline and reading comments under the blog posts. Emily chuckled, "That shouldn't be a question. I am one hundred percent certain it has worked. My brother must be on a hot seat right now," she let out with a dark smirk."I am just scared. What if they find us out?" Jasmine mumbled, tossing her phone on the couch and settling beside it.Emily was shocked by Jasmine's behavior. The lady she had always wanted for her brother wasn't a coward. What happened? What caused her change? "I didn't know you to be a coward, Jasmine. I have always known you to be brave. How would they even find out that we are behind the pictures flying over the internet? They're not going to know, my dear," she explained, hoping to relieve Jasmine's tension.Despite everything Emily said, Jasmine was still terrified. Her heart beat faster and it almost jumped out of its position. She put her thumb in her mouth and nibbled on

    GENERALLexi's grip on Donald's phone tightened as she read the news on his phone. The news headline says, "Alexandra Lexi and Ryan Middleton set to walk down the aisle as they got engaged yesterday in Korea." There was a picture of them at the hotel when Lexi was drunk and stumbled over Ryan's body. The angle the picture was taken made it seem as though they were in an intimate position. Lexi's eyes darted between the phone and Ryan. Her eyes darkened as inexplicable irritation swirled within her. It was glaring. It didn't need to be investigated. Ryan was the only person who could gain access to the photos because he was the only one who knew about what transpired between them aside from her. She snickered bitterly inwardly. She couldn't believe that he could be this desperate. This was the same man she had a plan of returning his position to when they returned to England. Meanwhile, Donald was brewing with anger where he was seated. Even though he was trying his best to suppress

    GeneralKoreaLexi descended from the cab, wired the money to the driver, and scurried into the hotel. She walked fast as though she was chased by some people. Getting into her suite, she locked the door and rested her back against it. Scoffing, her breath became deep and rapid. She couldn't believe what happened at the hospital."Am I a fool?" She asked nobody in particular, her chest hurling up and down. She let go of the door handle, sauntered to the bed, and collapsed onto it, sprawling with her arms widely spread while she faced the ceiling. Staring blankly, she rested a hand on her chest, and she listened to the way her heart was beating rhythmically.Blinking, she asked rhetorically, "What is wrong with me? Do I have a terminal disease? It cannot be that I am still in love with Ryan, right?" Frustrated by her unanswered question, she hissed and punched the air a few times. She blamed herself for allowing her emotions to take over. She blamed herself for going to the hospital

    GENERALPresident Alexandra and Madame Alexandra were seated in the living room when Jasmine walked in, with Mr. Ricardo, his PA, beside her. Mr. Ricardo bowed curtly and strolled away when they got to the living room.As soon as Madame Alexandra saw Jasmine, she stood up and closed the gap on her. "And what were you talking about? What was that shit you were clamoring all about?" She asked, swaying an irritable and hateful gape over Jasmine, who was terrified for a moment when she saw the wealthiest man in the country for the first time. That man—she had always seen him on TV. His aura and demeanor were as strong as it was on V; in fact, it would be safe to say that it was stronger. "Cat got your tongue? Don't you have a mouth?" Madame Alexandra yelled, exasperated that Jasmine didn't respond to her question. "Abigail! President Alexandra called his wife's name, which was unusual of him.
