"Donald,I need you to do an extensive research on the ownership of Stacc estate"he ordered.

"Right away sir"his assistant responded.

He ended the call feeling more in control than he had been all morning.

Alina's suggestion was indeed a good one.Yes,they needed to consult his wife.

He asked panicked as he looked under the covers to find that she was wearing nothing underneath.He quickly closed it,wrapping the bedsheets around him sarong style as he jumped out of the bed trying to get some distance away from her.
