Noel McCallion wasn't that old, he was just fifty years old. And he was still running his multi billion dollar empire all on his own. "Ah Alexander to what do I owe the pleasure?" Noel asked. "Why the heck is there a camera installed in my room?" Alexander asked. "Oh that? Consider it security measures." Noel said nonchalantly. "How could you do that?" Alexander asked. "Do what? Are you talking about the sex tape?" Noel asked nonchalantly. "Come on son, it's not like I'm going to share it to the world." Noel said. "Dad, stay the heck away from Samantha and I need the entire surveillance from yesterday deleted." Alexander ordered. "You got it, I was hoping to see if Samantha would say something bad about me, but she didn't. And Rita and Christopher seemed fond of her." Noel admitted. "So you were watching us the entire night?" Alexander asked. "Yeah, till you both fell asleep." Noel joked. "Here are the tapes you can delete them yourself."Alexander felt like punching his fa
Lucian hasn't spoken to Penelope in the last week. And beside Penelope was avoiding him. But of course you can't hide forever. Penelope was glad her shift was almost over when her telephone rang."Miss Barrett Mr Moon wants to have a word with you." Kai reported. Penelope felt like running into a hole. She took the elevator and headed for the last floor. She was a bit worried but finally arrived at the last floor. "Ah, Miss Barrett please come in." Lucian said. "You wanted to see me Sir?" Penelope asked. "Yes, I have a patient I need you to check." Lucian said. "But...""You still have thirty minutes before you clock out." Lucian said and Penelope cursed was he stalking her?"Who's the patient?" Penelope asked. "Over there." Lucian pointed at his sister who was seated in his office chair. "Brother I said I'm fine." Mildred complained. "No you're not." "Why did you ask your girlfriend to check on me?" Mildred asked with a frown. Penelope gathered a few equipments. And began
Samantha chuckled when she heard Lucian's words."You can't force Emma to be your friend that relationship would only end badly." Samantha said and Lucian chuckled. "Can I check on Penelope?" Samantha asked. "Yeah, should I accompany you?" Lucian asked. "Yeah, I wouldn't want to get lost." Samantha joked. "Okay, well I can introduce you to Mildred after you talk to your best friend." Lucian said. "Oh that would be nice." Samantha said.They walked into Penelope's office and everyone wondered why the boss was there. And even escorting a woman. The greeted him none the less. "Samantha?" Penelope called out surprised to see her. "Hi Penelope.""What are you doing here? Are you okay?" Penelope asked. "Yeah, I kinda came to see you." Samantha smiled. "That's very nice of you." Penelope replied hugging her. "Thanks." "And why is he here?" Penelope asked. "Oh, he is my escort. I didn't know your office so... He took me here. I hope I'm not intruding?" Samantha asked. "No, not a
Samantha arrived home slightly pissed, she didn't even have have dinner. "Samantha." Alexander called out. "Hey." Samantha forced a smile."It's been a while you gave me that look." Alexander said. "What look?" Samantha asked. "A forced smile look, aren't we passed that? What's wrong?" Alexander asked. "Nothing.""Well something is wrong and you don't look so good." Alexander said. "I'm fine... it's just Emma." Samantha said with a sigh. "Is she okay?" Alexander asked. "Yeah, she is." Samantha replied. "Did you two argue again?" Alexander asked. "Yeah." Samantha affirmed. "Over?" He asked. "A boy.""A boy? Why would you be arguing with Emma over a boy?" Alexander asked with a frown."There's this new guy she's hanging out with... I just don't want her to be close to him." Samantha said. "Why?" Alexander asked. "I don't know. I just don't like him." Samantha replied. "You're being paranoid." Alexander said. "Shouldn't I be? She's my sister and I don't want anyone hurtin
"Samantha, I know you're upset, but you can't just kill the child Alexander wouldn't let you." Lucian said."Which reminds me." Samantha scoffed. "What is it?" Lucian asked. "What did you do to the pills?" Samantha asked. "Samantha...""If you want us to continue being friends you'd answer me honestly." Samantha said coldly. "Fine, I helped switch your pills they look the same, taste almost the same but they're not contraceptives." Lucian answered honestly. "I'm sorry I let Alexander do that, I shouldn't have gotten involved but he would have gone to someone else. And I didn't want the medications to harm you so I offered to help." Lucian said. "Samantha I know you're upset, but Alexander loves you." Lucian smiled. "Yeah right, he's just using me. When the deal is over, he would just marry some high classed lady that would bring him benefit. And then toss me aside." Samantha scoffed. "And this little bugger, he's only going to get in Alexander's way. Or, probably... I won't ev
"Wait!" Lucian ordered the security guards. And they stopped dragging Kate away. Kate had a triumphant smile on her face. Lucian closed the distance between them. "Let me warn you Kate if you dare come near me or anyone I know, I will either kill you. Or get rid of everything you hold dear. And you know me. I don't make empty threats." Lucian warned. "Oh, and if you don't fear me. You should at least fear Alexander, I'm the reason he hasn't actually gotten his revenge. If you think you can come close to her Alexander would bury you alive." Lucian said referring to Samantha and Kate shuddered. "Take her away." Lucian ordered the guards and they dragged Kate away and this time she didn't curse. "Samantha you shouldn't have come all this way." Lucian said. "I was about to send you the medications." He added. "I just wanted to go for a walk. And it's a good thing I did, who knows what that wench could have done to Penelope." Samantha said. "Samantha are you okay?" Penelope asked.
"Are you both done?" Emma asked snapping the duo back to reality. "So Emma, I just came to see you. Who is he?" Mildred asked as she was so curious. "Oh this is my best male friend, Carlos." Emma replied. "Carlos this is Mildred my friend in my new school." Emma introduced. "Nice to meet you Miss." Carlos said with a smile. "Likewise." Mildred replied shaking hands with him. "What were you two doing?" Mildred asked. "Playing cards you wanna join?" Emma asked. "Okay." Mildred nodded seating with the duo. Penelope was seated in her office even after lights out. She just kept staring at the screen of her computer. "Are you researching the cure for death?" Lucian asked walking towards her."Huh?""All your colleagues already left and you should be home like three hours ago." Lucian said. "I..." Penelope stammered. "Do you need a drink?" Lucian asked. "Yeah." Penelope nodded. "I'll take you." Lucian said holding her hands. "Start the car." Lucian ordered his driver. They h
"Take a shower so I can do the same and we can leave." Lucian said. "Okay." Penelope nodded. Penelope spent almost thirty minutes in the shower and Lucian decided to knock."Penelope if you don't come out I'll have to join you." Lucian said and Penelope immediately ran out of the bathroom and Lucian chuckled."I thought something happened to you." Lucian said. "I'm fine... I just take my time when I'm showering that's all." Penelope lied. And Lucian chuckled. "Okay." A few minutes later he came out of the bathroom with just a towel around his waist. Penelope gulped hard as she saw his sexy body. Who would have thought a doctor would be so sexy. She didn't know how long she was drooling, until Lucian flicked her forehead. "Ouch." She pouted. "Try anything in my closet." Lucian said. "Huh?" Penelope asked. "You're definitely not wearing your clothes form yesterday are you?" Lucian asked with a frown. "Yes, I am I can't go home wearing your clothes." Penelope frowned. "Yes yo
"Sophie Weston, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourself to him in marriage?" The priest asked Samantha. "Yes." Samantha replied. "Alexander McCallion, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourself to her in marriage?" "Yes." Alexander replied. "Will you honour him as your husband for the rest of your life?" "I will." Samantha answered. "Will you honour her as your wife, for the rest of your life?" "I will." Alexander replied. "Will you accept children lovingly from God and bring them up according to the law of Christ?" The priest asked. "Yes." The duo replied. "It's time to exchange the vows." Rita and Christopher gave Alexander, and Samantha the rings and the duo began to recite the vows."I Sophie Weston take you, Alexander McCallion to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad times, in sickness and in health. I will love and honour you till death do us part." Samantha said sliding the ring into his
Alexander walked into the house and Samantha smiled at him. She immediately got on her feet and went to hug him. "Hey beautiful." Alexander said pecking her cheeks. "Hey.""I came to give you this." Alexander said. "What's this?" Samantha asked taking the file from him. "Actually I would have given this to you a year back but... Well now that I remembered I just thought to give it to you." Alexander said and Samantha went through the papers."Wait... These are the documents of our house." Samantha said, "Yeah, I'm giving your foster parents home back to you. I purchased it from the bank you see. I just forgot to give it back.""Emma would be so happy, thank you." Samantha said hugging him. "You're welcome, my love. I have to go." Alexander said. "Hey, you're not leaving. Help me make a pick between this two colors." Samantha said. "Why don't you just pick anyone?" Alexander asked. "I want you to pick.""The purple one." Alexander said. "See that wasn't so bad, and that was m
"I probably would have preferred Kate to her.""This is about something else isn't it?" Lionel asked."This is about something else isn't it?" Lionel asked again. He knew his wife a lot. "I don't want to talk about it." She said. They continued the dinner in silence till it was over. "Thank you for having me Mr and Mrs Moon." Penelope said. "Of course, and thank you for coming." Lionel said. "Tell me something did you get employed at the hospital because you got yourself into my son's bed?" Stella asked. "Mom! That's enough." Lucian said. "I'm just curious.""Mom, you're being mean." Mildred said. "Why are you all taking her side?" Stella asked. "Because she did nothing wrong, I know why you don't really like her." Lucian said. "Because your ex girlfriend is better." She said. "I'd rather die single than go back to Kate. I love Penelope and nothing you do will change that." Lucian said."Penelope let's go, I guess mom has too much alcohol so she isn't thinking straight." Lu
"I'm not saying you are. I'm just saying...""That's what you're trying to imply." Sebastian frowned. "Keep your money Sebastian, I know you're trying to impress your girlfriend but don't." Mr Grayson said. "So, Emma tell me how you two got into a relationship." Mrs Grayson asked. "Oh, it's kind of embarrassing." Emma said. "How so dear?" She asked. "Sebastian was a weird guy. I don't know the first time he walked into class I have to admit I hated him. He might have good looks but his manners were poor." Emma said. "You're right about that." Mr Grayson said and Sebastian glared at him. "We bumped into each other on the streets and... He asked if I'd love to go on a walk again with him since we live close to each other.""We've became close since then after I found out he wasn't a total idiot." Emma said. "I like you Emma, you're very outspoken." Mr Grayson said. "Thank you sir."Lucian arrived home only to hear voices he was surprised to see his parents and Mildred laughing.
"Samantha a lot had happened since... I thought I lost you." Emma said. "I know, it wouldn't have been easy thinking you lost me too." Samantha said. "It wasn't, losing dad, mom, aunt, you. I felt so empty. But Sebastian, Mildred, Carlos, Scarlett and Linda kinda made it a bit bearable." Emma said. "I'm glad they were there for you, come park your things." Samantha said and Emma nodded. "Guys thank you all for coming. Thank you all for supporting me." Samantha said. "Of course Samantha, you're a part of the group." Ken said. "But more than that. You guys helped me regardless of the fact that I pretended not to know you guys." Samantha said. "Samantha you chose to trust us, we owe you our support. You've been through a lot with us, you almost got killed I wouldn't blame you if you choose not to come to us for help." Lucian said."Still thank you all I wouldn't have been able to pull that off without your help.""We're glad we could help." They said. "Oh Joelle sorry I sent a mo
When Samantha heard this she nearly lost her footing. "Well get dressed first." Raphael said."Penelope you have to get the hell out of there." Samantha said. "There's still a few percent to go." Penelope said. "Ditch it they would kill you." Samantha said. "It's done.""Get out now." Samantha said and Penelope arranged her dress before walking out of the room. Samantha knew that the father and son pair would surely see Penelope coming from the study so she decided to stage a little drama. "Play along." Samantha said. "I don't want you calling me Samantha how many times do I have to tell you and your friends that I want nothing to do with any of you?" Samantha asked. "Samantha..." Penelope called out. "Penelope what are you doing up here?" Raphael asked. "Oh she came upstairs after she saw me and you heading up here and then she's telling me some weird crap about our childhood." Samantha said. "Penelope you know you should stop talking about Samantha." Raphael said. "And yo
Alexander was preparing for the man walking towards him with a smile. He couldn't understand why people would waste their votes on someone as vile as him. Well they were going to make sure he doesn't have a career in the political race anymore. "Alexander McCallion." Gael smiled. "Mr governor." Alexander said with a straight face, well he wasn't known for smiling much so his looks weren't weird. "Long time no see.""Indeed.""I'm glad you could make it tonight." Gael said"Yeah, me too." Alexander smiled. "I hope Mr Weston and your father makes it tonight." Gael said. "Oh, I'm sure they would turn up." Alexander said. "Yeah, because I have a very nice surprise for everyone here." Gael smiled. "I'm sure you do." Alexander smiled reading more meanings to his words. "Guys I think there's a problem." Alexander said. "What is it Alexander?" Lucian asked. "Joelle I need you to text Mr Weston not to come tonight I think Gael is up to something." Alexander said. "Too late Mr West
The next day Samantha went to Karl's club. She hadn't been here since she was kicked out and Alexander forced her into his little deal and since then her life had been a drama.Well she wanted to fix everything and that includes facing her past. "Boss Miss Weston is here to see you." Johnson his manager said. "Let her in." He said immediately. He wondered why he saw the name Weston in his schedule, he knew Ethan lost his wife for more than seventeen years but he had never gotten himself drunk or gotten laid. So he wondered what the sudden visit was for. A bulky man walked into his office he knew that wasn't Ethan Weston and that definitely wasn't a woman. He heard the sound of clicking shoes and he was surprised to see who it was. "Samantha?" Karl asks surprised. "How..." He stuttered. "I see you're still not a good fan of news are you uncle?" Samantha asked."Samantha." Karl called out again as he hugged her. "Hi uncle Karl it's been almost three years." Samantha said. "Sa
Alexander was surprised to see Ken there. Well it's not like they all haven't had a common enemy that they've had to deal with. "Why are you here?" Alexander asked. "To make it hurt." Ken replied."Are you saying I can't make it hurt?" Alexander asked. "Maybe not. Let's do this together, I have a little score to settle as well." Ken said walking on ahead of Alexander. Alexander walked into the room and found Preston tied up. Alexander asked his blind folds be taken off."Ah Alexander McCallion, I wasn't expecting you'd be the one to bring me to such a place." Preston said. "Well you've gotten old, so old in fact that you're disgusting." Alexander said."I might totally deserve that." He said with a slight chuckle. "So what are you going to do? Kill me?" Preston asked."You don't think I can?" Alexander asked. "You and I both know you can't." Preston Cruz challenged."Should I kill you and make your son in law take the fall?" Alexander asked. "You live my daughter and her famil
