Upon arrival, Alex’s access proved invaluable. He guided the team through security and into the estate. The officers, led by Agent Smith and Detective Benson, approached Elsa Reeves’ mansion with determination.As they made their way inside, the securities and bodyguards reacted with alarm as they saw Alex bringing in officers into the mansion.They moved to confront the intruders, but Alex quickly intervened, instructing them to back off. The commotion caused by the confrontation created a distraction, allowing Elsa to make her way to the living room.As Elsa arrived, her expression one of surprise, she asked, “What is going on here?”Detective Benson stepped forward, holding up the warrant. “Elsa Reeves, you are under arrest for your involvement in the false allegations and the fake business proposal deal with Walmart Industries. Please come with us for questioning.”The officers moved in, and Elsa Reeves, though initially resistant, had no choice but to comply. As she was led away,
Three days after, as the sun dipped toward the horizon, casting a golden hue over the city, Alex sent a message to Amelia: he had a surprise for her. The excitement in his text was palpable, and Amelia’s curiosity piqued as she went about her work for the day.During the end of work, Alex waited for her to tidy up her things, and when she was done, she strode to where his car was parked.Alex smiled warmly to welcome her when he sighted her walking towards him. As she arrived at the car, he stepped outside and gave her a warm hug and thereafter, he asked, "Do you trust me?" his mischievous and genuine eyes sparkling."Of course I do," Amelia answered, her smile expressing her confidence in him. “Good,” Alex said, pulling out a soft blindfold. “I’m going to need you to wear this for a bit while I drive you to our destination.”Amelia chuckled and agreed, her excitement evident. “Sure, go ahead. I’m ready for this surprise!”With the blindfold gently placed over her eyes, Alex took her
"Amelia is doing great. She's stable, and the doctors are making sure everything goes smoothly. We won't know much more for a while, but she's handling it well thus far,” the nurse said.With a sigh of relief, Flora's shoulders eased. "We really appreciate you informing us of this."The nurse nodded. “I’ll keep you updated on her progress. Feel free to wait here, and I’ll come to get you once there’s more news.”Alex and Flora resumed their seats, their minds slightly eased but still filled with anticipation. They chatted quietly, trying to distract themselves from the nervous energy that lingered.Hours seemed to pass quickly as they continued to wait. Finally, the nurse returned, her expression filled with positive news. “You can see Amelia now. She has asked for both of you to come in.”The nurse led Alex and Flora through the hospital hallways until they arrived at the delivery room.They were met with the sight of Amelia who appeared relieved yet exhausted, and they saw her holdi
The vast, exquisite estate served as the perfect setting for the lavish wedding of Alex and Amelia. The event was held in a verdant yard with beautiful white and blush flower arrangements.Nathan and his spouse, who traveled from a distance, were among the loved ones, friends, and employees present.A string quartet's gentle strains accompanied Amelia as she walked down a rose-petal-filled aisle in a stunning couture gown with elaborate lace embellishments.Alex waited at the altar with love and anticipation in his eyes as he looked stunning in a fitted tuxedo.The reception was held in a large ballroom with tables adorned with exquisite china and glittering cutlery and lit by crystal chandeliers that created a pleasant glow.Following a five-course gourmet dinner, guests danced in a gorgeously lighted patio under the stars.The coordinator, whose job had been taken because he had refused to comply with Elsa's requests, contacted Alex at the ceremony's conclusion and gave him some sur
“Waiter!” Amelia screamed in frustration, with her hand raised above her head, calling the attention of the waiter.“Yes ma’am, how may I help you?” the waiter responded politely“Please, I will need some more wine. Something stronger than what was given to me earlier” Amelia instructed, with her voice shaky and slightly above a whisper.The waiter nodded in response to the order that was placed. He seemed concerned, realizing she already looked tipsy from her slightly slurred speech.Amelia had just seen her father take his life a few hours ago, the thoughts and proceedings crippled her emotions. The weight of despair rested heavily on her. She searched everywhere for a spark of life but couldn’t find any.After she had drunk enough, she raised her hand once again, to signal the waiter for payment this time. Her card got slotted in and was declined. Apparently, she was out of funds. Not only did she just lose her dad, all of her family’s inheritance had been seized based on some alle
“Is that Alex Tate?”“Yes, that’s him. He is the CEO of the Tate Industries”“Damn! He’s so fucking hot!”“All I want to do is spend the rest of my life with him!”The ladies present at the bar whispered among themselves together with their body languages longing for himAmelia’s eyes widened in shock, she turned and asked the lady who stood next to her, “Please, who is that man?”“You mean you don’t know him?”“That’s one of the hottest man in the city!” Flora chuckled“His name is Alex Tate, the CEO of the Tate Industries. He also owns 55% of this bar’s shares” Flora said. “So, he is more like our boss too” she laughed while hitting Amelia’s shoulders slightly in a jokingly manner.Flora asked, “You seem uncomfortable with that news, is everything okay?”Flora was instructed by the manager to show Amelia around, just so she can get acquainted with the working environment and prepare to take orders. She seemed a bit comfortable being around Amelia.“No, there is nothing wrong. I am f
“Greetings to you Mr. Tate, to what do I owe this pleasure?” Mr. Lawrence responded“Please, I need you to look into a profile for me, her name is Amelia Walmart and I want to know everything about her.” Alex said, with an assurance of hope.“Okay sir, I will” Mr. Lawrence responded“I trust you to carry out this findings perfectly.” Alex responded and thereafter, hanging up the call.After the call, Alex had to drive quickly. He had scheduled a meeting with his board members to prepare for a project at hand. This was one of the biggest opportunities he had to expand Tate Industries to a greater level of growth.Upon arrival, he hurriedly walked towards his secretary and asked “Is everybody ready?”“Yes sir, they are.” Lucy, the secretary responded. Also sir, you do have a visitor awaiting your arrival at the office”“Who could that be?” Alex asked, his mind racing in curiosity“I wouldn’t know sir” Lucy responded.“Alright, kindly grab a coffee for the entire team and have it deliver
Her mind swirled like a tempest, mixed in a dilemma. She longed for clarity, for some glimpse of understanding in the midst of the confusion that enveloped her“I am Cora, Alex’s Fiancée, so it’s best you stay away from my man. We are engaged to be married soon.” She warned, her voice filled with pride, as she elegantly displayed a magnificent diamond ring on her finger.“Why are you telling me this?” Amelia asked, her tone portraying a hint of suspicion. She snorted softly, crossing her arms and placing her hands on top of each other, her posture exuding confidence, meeting Cora’s gaze with a bold stare“I have absolutely nothing to do with Alex. So, you can be rest assured you have nothing to worry about.” Amelia asserted, a touch of defiance in her voice. “What could he possibly gain from associating with someone like me?” her voice softened, with a touch of sadness in her eyes as she let her hands fall to her sides.“Yeah, you are right’” Cora replied, her tone filled with mockery
