Had she expected that Alpha Nelson would clear the rumor?
Yes, she has.
Very much so. Unfortunately, life doesn't seem to go as planned.
A close-up of her face was shown. Anyone who knew her would recognize her after seeing this photo.
With such clarity, even if she denied it and said that the woman in the photo was not her, no one would believe it.
“Wow. I never knew you were such a big shot, Grace.” Kiana said.
Grace took a deep breath, turned around, and sat back down at her desk under the envious gaze of her colleagues with pale faces.
Just by listening to the chatter, Grace could not help but shiver a little, while raising her hand to cover her forehead and closing her eyes to calm her mind.
“Grace, are you alright? You are shivering.” Kiana's concerned voice sounded again, but Grace only shook her head.
Without a word, she switched on her computer on her desk, and in the next few minutes, every search engine had the same headline.
It was trending and the latest and hottest news.
"Divine's Group Fianceé."
'Who is Alpha Nelson's Divine fianceé'
They mostly took the photos from the corner of the room where it seemed as if they were hugging or kissing.
As if they had taken it unaware when it was not.
The media dared to offend Alpha Nelson and ignored his previous warnings.
They had exaggerated everything. Before yesterday she had never met Alpha Nelson, even when they were rich he was someone not easily seen.
He was a legend in most people's eyes. A role model.
Grace banged her hand on the table in annoyance. She doesn't want such trouble.
Especially when the Divine family would have seen this and then brought trouble to her small family life just like in those movies. Maybe they would offer her money and she would be on her way.
The corner of her mouth twitched and she stood up.
“Regarding this matter, since we are all members of the media we would know how reporters work.
Some current affairs and hot news are not even true. We should not take this matter seriously and everyone should head back to work.”
Without waiting for her to finish, Kiana opened another video that had been posted on the internet.
Victor's voice was suddenly heard from the speakers.
“What would a highly renowned CEO be found in an area like this? I don't believe you.
You are just trying to deceive us. If it was the Alpha Nelson Divine I know, he would probably be dining in the world's biggest hotel not a four-star hotel like this.”
“I suggested to him that we meet here because it has been a long time since we saw each other and he was around the area. He didn't mind so.
I suggest you all leave before you get into more trouble than you already are in.
This is a private session between two couples. It's not nice to have people staring at me."
" Everyone's gaze was once focused on her again." Most of them were fawning over her and giving her special attention.
Her blood ran cold when the video kept on playing over and over again.
She glared at Kiana who just shrugged innocently.
“Awww, you could not wait to see your fiance and decided to do it in the closest place nearby. That's so sweet.
Grace was on the verge of going crazy. She wished the ground would open up and just swallow her.
She didn't even wait for anything more, she just walked out of the room and went outside to get some fresh air.
She had only just stepped outside when her cell phone vibrated, she took her phone only to see that it was Victor.
She had tried so hard to not think about him anymore, but just one call from him could make her heartthrob in pain.
Grace considered picking up the call, her finger hovered over the accept button but she didn't pick up and just watched it ring until it stopped.
The phone was silent for about 10 seconds then it rang again. Still Victor.
At this moment, Grace was in no mood to look at her colleagues who were sneaking glances at her as they walked by.
She glanced at her watch waiting for time to pass by.
When her phone rang again. Without looking at the caller's ID she picked up the call this time.
“What do you want, Victor? Haven't you hurt me enough? I thought I wasn't worth it. Go date your Cindy Rodericquez and just leave me alone!”
Her throat was sore, and her voice sounded hoarse. At the same time, she sounded slightly angry and harsh.
After a moment of silence, a clear and melodious voice came from the other side,“Miss Valdez?”
Grace's eyes widened. She looked at the call list and saw it was an unknown number.
Her expression softened a bit as she quickly put the phone back on her ear and apologized.
“I am sorry, but may I know who this is please?"
“It's me. The PA of Alpha Nelson." the person said.
" Alpha Nelson's PA?" Grace asked with shock writing all over her face.
Yes. Mrs. Valdez. The person said confirming that whatever she heard was correct.
"I know I offended your Boss please tell him I am really sorry about what happened and I will do everything within my powers to stop the post from spreading." Grace said with fear written all over her.
"Sorry Miss." But I don't think that is the reason why my boss asked me to call. The person said.
"Please, if it is money he wants please tell him to give me more time and I promise to compensate him for what my ex boyfriend did. Grace said again." Madam, please. That is not why I called. "I just want to inform you that Alpha Nelson wants to see you." The person said."Me? Grace asked still in shock."
Yes Miss. "My boss wants to meet up with you."
"He said you should meet him at La Creme club." The person said and ended the call before Grace could reply.
The club was one of the most famous clubs in the city. Grace had just gotten out of the taxi when a young man walked up to her to greet her. “Are you Miss Valdes?” He asked. She paused for a moment, staring at the man in a suit with suspicion. Seeing the vigilance in her eyes, the man smiled in understanding. He then spoke in a low voice “Mr. Divine is here and is currently waiting for you on the 15th floor. Grace nodded, then followed the man into the clubhouse, taking the elevator to the 15th floor. She could see a pool behind the glass doors as soon as she stepped out of the elevator. Two people were guarding the door, when they saw her they looked at the young man whom she had come in contact with before nodding and letting her in. The moment she walked in, her eyes landed on the figure swimming inside the swimming pool like an experienced swimmer. He was wearing a short black swimming knicker without a shirt and she could see his body very clearly. His fig
Immediately Grace was done signing the marriage certificate she dropped the pen down, turned and looked at him. Alpha Nelson took the pen and signed his signature too on the marriage certificate." I will be going to my house now." Grace said after they were done with the signature. "Not so fast wifey." Alpha Nelson said. " What do you want again?" Grace asked as she turned and faced him. "As a married woman don't you think you are supposed to be everywhere your husband is?" Alpha Nelson asked her in a teasing manner. "Are you asking me to sit down here and just watch you?" Grace asked. "That sounds great, as least you are watching the hottest body in the whole world" Alpha Nelson replied,smirking.Grace just rolled her eyes wondering what kind of man she has gotten married to. Nelson came closer to her and Grace felt her leg became weak.He was really happy seeing the effects he had on her. Who won't be? With how good looking he is with his six packs. "Actually Mr. Divine, I
The moment Grace got to the door of her boss's office she tookna breath she never knew she was holding.After she was done, she knocked on the door of the office." " Come in." A deep voice said from inside. And she immediately pushed the door open and went in. "Sir, you sent for me?" She asked her boss. " Yes Miss Valdez please sit down. Her boss said in a polite manner." And she immediately sat down. " Hope there is no problem sir?" She asked him. " I don't want to beat around the bush. Is Mr. Nelson Divine Truly your fiance as the post only says?" Her boss asked. "Ehh!" Grace tried to come up with a good lie but to no avail."How am I going to tell her boss that Mr. Divine is actually her husband and not just her fiance?" She asked herself while still in doubt on what to say to her boss. "I know that is your personal matter and you don't want to say anything but that is not why I call you to my office." Her boss said after seeing how quiet she was. She was grateful that h
"Grace!" Kiana called." Won't you go home? She asked. "Home?" Grace asked and looked at her watch, it was past 6 pm. She was so drained at her work that she forgot to check her time. "Thanks, but you go ahead I will leave shortly" She said to Kiana. She then starts parking her stuff inside her bag. When she took her phone from her bag and checked it, she saw five missed calls from a strange number. "Ohh! No. Mr. Divine told me I should be expecting his call. And now I miss his calls" Grace said as she lamented to herself."Hope he doesn't get mad at me for not picking his calls" she thought.At that moment she was done packing her bag and organzing her table, so she walked out of her office.When she stepped outside the company, there was a Black Range rover waiting for her. "Mrs. Divine!" The body guard said as he opened the back seat door for her to enter. Behind was the face of the man, her boss asked to invite for an exclusive interview. She immediately entered the car. "
It was 6 am in the morning when the alarm Clock of Grace started ringing. With a heavy eye Grace stressed out her hand and turned off the alarm. Let me sleep for 5 minutes again. She said to herself and dozed off. "Sis, sis, Wake up it's almost 6:30 you will be late for work." Grace heard someone saying in her dream land. "Sis, you need to wake up your phone is Ringing and it's your boss calling you." Grace's brother said. With the mention of her Boss Grace immediately woke up from her sleep and got down from the bed."Sis, your phone has been ringing and it's your boss calling." Elvis said the moment he saw that his sister was awake. Grace took her phone from him. There were 5 Miss calls from her boss and when she checked the time it was 6:35 am. Oh no. "I am late from work." Grace said as she thanked her brother and rushed to the bathroom to take her shower. 20 minutes later, Grace was already ready to go to work. So, she walked out of her room. Where she saw her mother and
Nathan, go find out if Gerald was able to drop off my wife at her place of work. Alpha Nelson said the moment he entered his office.Okay boss. Nathan said and walked out of the office. "Do you love her? Nelson wolf asked." Of course not. Have you forgotten she is not our mate. Alpha Nelson said to his wolf.Are you sure you don't love her? Because I don't want any problems when our mate shows up in the future. His wolf said. There will be no problem. Have you forgotten our marriage with her is just a contract marriage which will end within 2 years, 11 months, 3 weeks, 6 days? Alright, if you say so. I have always respect and follow any decisions you make. Nelson wolf said. You have too. You don't have a choice since you are stuck with me. Alpha Nelson said to his wolf. Just then Nathan walked inside the office. Alpha, Gerald said, "He just dropped Mrs. Divine at her place of work. Nathan said.Good. Alpha Nelson answered and just then his phone started ringing. "Nathan, who is
"Mr. Nelson Divine." Mr. Mason called out in surprise as he walked towards Alpha Nelson Divine. Whispering could be heard from Grace's colleagues."Wow! That means Mr. Nelson Divine is truly Grace's fiance." Anita said. " That is bad she didn't tell any of us about him." Another colleague said with an angry face."I am sure Grace had a reason why she kept her relationship a secret from us." By the way we are her colleagues at the office. Kiana said to them."You are right Kiana. At least she has shut the mouth of that wicked Miss Cindy over there." Anita said and they all turned to see the shock which was still on Cindy and Victor's faces. I thought you said, there will be no way Mr. Nelson Divine will come here for Grace? Victor asked Cindy. Thought too so. But how come he came here just because she invited her? Cindy asked while still in shock about the whole incident."Your are welcome to my company Mr. Divine." Mr. Mason said to Mr. Divine while scratch his hands for a hands
Alpha Nelson sophisticatedly walked up to Grace, who was so nervous; her eyes were not facing up but were buried to the desk.The fans and other people watching the broadcast around the world were just watching what was happening inside the broadcasting room.They were waiting for Alpha Nelson to give them an answer of if he was engaged or not."Yes, I am not single. I am not only engaged, but I am married to my beautiful, lovely, and adorable wife." Alpha said so proudly as he held Grace's hands and made her stand up.Not minding if everything was life; the whole world was seeing it. Immediately after Alpha Nelson made that statement, Grace could feel a pit in her stomach; she felt the eyes of those who were watching this live broadcast on her skin.They were piercing every part of her skin; she swallowed hard, but still her legs trembled as Alpha Nelson drew her close to stand with him."I hope I have cleared everything here and now. Thanks everyone, and have a lovely day ahead." He
