He ordered the HR Director to hold on with the recruitment she was handling as they have just gotten another investor that would be taking over immediately. The new management had stated they would like to select their candidates of choice for the vacant positions in the company.The External Auditors had laid off so many incompetent staff members that contributed to the ruin of the giant company and they still planned to lay off all the current Directors but they wanted the new Management to settle in well and understand the system thoroughly before they would let go of the remaining inept staff.The HR Director who didn’t know she had only a couple of days left on her job clenched her teeth and angrily replied “But, I was just about handing an employment letter over to a candidate when you called”“For what position?” asked the Chief External Auditor.“Director, Business Advisory” she replied sternly.“That’s a senior position… Schedule another interview with the candidate for 10 am
The new CEO confidently pulled out the chair beside Alexandra and sat down very close to her.He asked the clumsy HR Director who by this time was still on her feet what her job was. She rubbed her hand over her breasts to divert his attention to that spot as she responded “I'm the HR Director Sir"The new CEO; Kirklin Jefferson was really irritated by her attitude and he said "I'm sure whoever recruited you must have gotten you from a strip bar cos I see no reason why you should act immorally in here. Listen, there's a new sheriff in town and I don't condone any bad behavior. I can't tolerate it...IS THAT NOTED? He said emphatically.The lady was very scared as no man had ever resisted what she just did so she quickly apologized and took her seat.Kirklin who sat closely beside Alexandra didn't for once tilt his head to look at her nor did she look up from where she was. Her heart started to race from the moment he sat beside her and all she could do was to fiddle with the frills of
Both Kirklin and Alexandra looked up to see who violently opened the door and it was the HR Director. Kirklin was very angry with her and he immediately ordered "Get out". He instantly called the Chief External Auditor on phone to arrange for her immediate termination without benefits. As soon as Alexandra heard he was going to lay her off, he pleaded with him to allow her to collect an item from her first. For the first time since they met again, she looked at his face as she made her request, and memories of their past unfolded in her eyes which were immediately filled with tears. Kirklin was never comfortable seeing her cry so he got up and sat on the table in front of her. He used his hands to wipe her tears. As soon as he did that, it was as if her stored-up tears of over a year just gave way and she started to sob uncontrollably. Her shoulders shook so much as she bawled heavily. Kirklin quickly got up and locked the Conference Room door. He picked up his phone again and infor
Unknown to Alexandra, Kirklin could see her through the camera installed in his car which he was able to view from his wristwatch. He was surprised to see her expressing breast milk and knew she must have delivered her baby from the pregnancy that caused them to go their separate ways. He was happy for her but felt unhappy for himself as he thought she must be with her child's dad. As soon as he saw that she was done, he went to the car and knocked before entering. He touched her forehead and realized her fever had subsided. "Oh wow, you're getting better!" He exclaimed. “Yes, thank you but I still need the meds”. She ate a little of the snack and took the medication. She thereafter decided to leave. She held the door handle and said as she wanted to get out of his car, "Thank you for helping me today". However, as she tilted her body to open the door, Kirklin grabbed her by the hand and pleaded "Xandra, please can we talk for a while". She looked back at him and said "I don't th
Kirklin screamed and looked up immediately as he saw the HR Director he had just terminated her appointment when she tried to run away after shooting Alexandra.There was pandemonium everywhere as the people around had seen her shoot someone in the car and they ran helter-skelter.Kirklin picked up the gun in his car compartment and got out immediately. He aimed directly at the ex-HR Director and shot her at the same spot she hit Alexandra at. She fell down and he ran closer and blew out her brains instantly.He then shouted for help and screamed for the people around to help him call the emergency line as he needed to attend to Alexandra immediately. "Help me call 112 for my wife". He shouted.Blood was gushing from the wound and he quickly brought her out of the car and started exerting pressure on the wound to stop the bleeding.Within a twinkle of an eye, the Police and Ambulance had arrived at the scene.The paramedics attended to her immediately and put her in the ambulance to t
Kirklin called the Chief External Auditor of the company he just bought to inform him of the situation and the Auditor informed him that the Police were just entering the office as they spoke. Kirklin told him to make sure the team cooperated with them and he hung up.Mr. Laurent didn’t take long to arrive at the hospital and he met Kirklin in the waiting room.Immediately Kirklin saw him, he remembered meeting him and his wife at the reception of the hospital when he went to donate blood for Kayla. Mr. Laurent was too distraught to recognize him but knew his face was familiar.Kirklin saw that he was visibly unsteady and he took him to sit down and started to calm him down. He narrated the whole thing to him but found it difficult to tell him he was the father of the twins as he didn’t know if that would complicate his emotions.The Psychologists attended to Mr. Laurent and he and Kirklin remained quiet but panicky.About 3 hours into the surgery, Alexandra's foster dad arrived from
Kirklin met with the two men outside and gave them an update on her condition. He then introduced himself as her former boss in London and the father of her babies.It was as he spoke that it dawned on Mr. Laurent that he was the man that donated blood for Kayla when she was born. It was a very emotional period for all of them but the men were happy to meet the father of their granddaughters.They introduced themselves to him too and the 3 of them decided to act like men and be strong enough to go through the storm together no matter what happens.The Police brought in the pumped milk and the Nurses checked and confirmed they were still good because Alexandra had kept them in an icepack bottle.Mr. Laurent and Alexandra’s foster dad knew it was time to go home to break the news to their wives and also feed the girls who must be hungry for breast milk.Mrs. Laurent must have fed them with their baby formula but they usually kicked their cute legs in excitement whenever they were having
The first thing Keith Jefferson did when he walked in was to hug his son very tight as he assured him Alexandra would be fine by God's grace.He then greeted everyone around including the doctors and then proceeded to Alexandra's side. He bent close to her ears and whispered "Your future dad-in-law is here and I want you to see that I'm more handsome that your boyfriend".There was an immediate reaction on the life support machine as 70% of her organs responded all of a sudden and everyone in the room gasped with joy.Keith smiled and said to Kirklin "You know what? ... I told her that I'm more handsome than you and she agreed"Everyone laughed for the first time and the atmosphere changed. The machine beeped again and Kirklin knew Alexandra was protesting what his father said."Dad, you see! ..." He pointed to the machine and continued…"As far as she’s concerned, I'm the most handsome dude in the world"The doctors recorded the progress she made as her remaining organs started to imp
