Patrick stood up when he saw Alex approaching finally. Daniel had been waiting for over an hour, and Alex didn't pick up when he called again multiple times. He needed to fill Alex on Gina Dawson, his 'Maybe' Future wife... "Is he still waiting?" Alex said, and Patrick nodded. he had thought Daniel would leave after a while, but he kept waiting diligent in Alex office and even asked for some refreshments... "Wasn't he on an indefinite business trip? Why is he back without any word." Alex muttered under his breath as she pushed open the door to his office. Daniel was laughing at a video he was watching on his phone when his nephew walked into his office... "You are finally here... I thought you wouldn't show up, " Daniel said, and Alex smiled slightly at the older man... "I didn't know you returned," Ale

"Is there a chance I could have dinner here" He asked in a low voice and managed to smile at her... Did he have a bad day at work, opposite of her day she wondered... She thought about it for a few seconds before letting him into her house... Alex walked into her house and sighed deeply... His heart felt less heavy now that he had seen her...

Juliet walked Alex to his car when it was finally time for him to leave... He looked tired and hesitant to leave but he knew he couldn't stay and it was getting late..."I'm sure your father wouldn't like to know you are finding it hard..." She said as he was about to enter his car..."I doubt it" Alex answered... "He was more of a workaholic than I was and always put his job first before anything else. that was the live he lived" "isn't that more of a reason, why he wouldn't want you to live like him" Juliet said and it took Alex a few seconds to digest her words..."Thank you for the dinner" Alex said and smiled at her...

Gina stopped her car at a gas station and picked up her scarf and sunglasses. She made sure no one was coming her away before she came out of her car and walked hurriedly across to where another car was parked... She couldn't risk anyone seeing her in such a place... "Did you find out" She said to the man in the car and he nodded. the man handed her an envelope and Gina Snatched it from his hand and impatient opened... There were pictures and she started ro flip through the pictures. "This is the girl he had been hanging out with!" Gina said and took off her sunglasses... She couldn't deny the lady was pretty, but she wasn't like her in any way... she looked so normal... Her clothes and everything else... Was this the person Alex was avoiding her for... She closed her eyes and let out a deep breath... "How long have they been seeing each other?" She asked her private investigator as she went through all the pictures... There was a picture of them at the park together, and anot
"That stupid boy," Michelle muttered under her breath when her driver drove she and Gina, to where juliet worked... She was glad she had such a daughter in law with quick thinking. Gina reminded her of herself in a way... She was ambitious and she liked it... She just wished she wasn't so forward sometimes... it would have been better if she hadn't gone and found things out herself. She would have handled the matter sooner or later... "This is the place ma'am," Her drive said when they stopped in front of a building with a sign reading "DB Publishing company."""" "We are not here to confront her. just to speak with her, " Michelle said, and Gina nodded. They both came out of the car and walked into the building that didn't even have an elevator. They had to go up the stairs... Gina barely placed her hand on the stair railing as she walked behind Michelle... How could people work in such a place... Her boutique that she considered small was far bigger than the place... They arrive
"We have to come back here. what if she ignores this? " Gina said as their car drove away from Juliet's office. Michelle wished Gina would just shut her mouth and let her handle this, but Gina was not satisfied... she wanted Michelle to do more so she could be rest assured that no one would stand in her way of getting Alex to marry her... "You don't have to concern yourself with this anymore, Gina. I've told you already that I will take care of this." Michelle almost snapped at her but managed to control herself... When they arrived at Michelle's villa, she walked off without asking Gina if she wanted to come in and stay for long. she needed to clear her mind, and Gina wasn't helping one bit... Gina simply went to where her car was parked and got in "You have to do something or I will" She muttered under Her breath and was about to start her car engine when her phone vibrated in her purse... she immediately took it out, thinking it was her private investigator and that he had more inf
Anna walked into the living room with a glass and bottle of wine in her hand, proving Charles Dawson right after proving Charles words right... "Isn't that the second bottle this evening?" Charles said with disdain... "How is that any of your business?" Anna replied and drank all the contents in the wine glass before pouring herself into another glass. Charles shook his head. "I wonder how much more your kidneys can take.... you may die before I do, " He said, mocking and before Anna could have her comeback, Doris, their cook who had been working for the family for the family for almost thirty years... "Dinner is ready, sir," Doris informed... Gina wondered how Doris could put up with such a family for so long and not try to quit even once. was the pay that good... "Thank you, Doris," Charles said to her and walked out of the living room, but not before staring at Anna with disdain in his eyes... She was already halfway through her bottle of wine, and he hated how she looked now. She
"How was work?" Alex asked, breaking the silence between the both of them. A smile appeared on Juliet's face when he mentioned work. Her mood was just great today..."Really great, we have been having problems lately, but I think everything is going to be solved soon," Juliet said, and Alex nodded... he was glad to know that everything was working out well, like he had instructed Patrick to make sure of...The smile in her beautiful face warmed his heart... "How was your day?" She asked him, and he nodded. "My day was like every other day," he answered. His day was filled with work and boring, but once he saw her, he forgot all about that...

How could he say something like that so easily and make her feel this way.... The butterflies in her tummy seemed to.
