Alexander's next plan was to properly introduce Bella to his father and to tell him about their love and his intention to marry her. That would mean strong opposition for them from his mother and Sophia. He was ready for it and so was Bella as she had told him. After their night of intimacy, Bella's heart was toughened a bit to be able to fight for their love no matter the odds.

So, with that, Alexander brought Bella to his parents and told them all they needed to know about their relationship. Claudia was mad with anger and fumed visibly. Felix still maintained his calmness. He was not too happy that his son chose a maid to be his wife and his daughter-in-law but he had to carefully analyze the situation, especially when Bella was the reason Alexander had finally gotten over the death of his twin brother and was back to being the responsible man he was meant to be. If she could change Alexander, then surely she was fit to be his wife and to make him achieve more success and greatnes

    Claudia made her way as soon as she was opportune to meet with Sophia. They met in a restaurant and there Claudia informed her all about the recent happenings. Sophia was vexed. She was displaced by one other but a common maid. She was even the more displeased that Felix had sided with Alexander and Bella. "How could Alex do this? Choose a pauper, a maid to be his wife?" Sophia asked."I'm equally surprised my dear. Alexander has no shame, no dignity. He is fraternizing with a low class and wants to marry her" Claudia was ashamed as she spoke."Aunty, you're not gonna let this abomination happen, are you?" Sophia asked her."Obviously not. Never. Alexander can frolic with that idiot for now but in the end he will never get married to her. I have my plans and I will do everything I have purposed in my heart to do. If that Bella of a girl is wise, she will listen to my warnings and stay away from my son else, she and her family will pay dearly" Claudia said.Sophia nodded, "I trust you

    Alexander felt something odd the moment he had stepped into his bedroom. There was a strange and alluring scent in the air. Alexander wondered whether the maids had changed the air freshener in his room. The bed was strangely yet neatly done. Suddenly the sound of a romantic song filled the air and from the bathroom came Sophia, seductively dressed. She was wearing a black sexy bikini and her hair was left loose. "Hi baby" Sophia said, as she stood, leaning on the bare wall with her right leg raised up on the wall. She licked her lips enticingly as she stared at Alexander.'So this is their plan', Alexander thought to himself. He decided to leave the room immediately and quickly turned away from her. Before he could walk back to the door, Sophia had already gotten to him and stopped him, holding his hand."What do you think you're doing?" He asked her."Shhhhhhh" she said provocatively, "This isn't the time to talk.....baby" she moved to his front and started stroking his chin with h

Felix and Alexander had already done all the necessary calculations and have decided exactly how much to give each family that would last them for three farming seasons.

Everyone knew that his marriage to her would create a merger of both empires but Sophia had indicated that there was something more to it. It seemed to Alexander that she was the only one who would benefit from it and he kept thinking about what it was. What else could she get from being married to him? He wondered."You've been this way for a while now. What is the matter love?" Bella asked him having seen him for the umpteenth time being moody.He was sitting on the little dining chair and his hands were on the round table as he burrowed his brows in worry. Bella sat, facing him and he looked at her."I went to see Sophia some days back for us to reach a compromise. I had offered her a deal in which she lets us be and we will still push through with the merger but she refused. She said that there was more she would gain than just the merger should she marry me and I can't just rest. I'm trying to kn

They were talking in the living room when he walked in with his bag."You're back son?" Claudia asked, surprised."Finally!"

    It was time. Everything was set according to their plans. Amor's army-trained men had scouted the location with the help of that same tiny, undetectable drone and the men were able to locate important spots and entry into the building.The building was a fancy bungalow situated somewhere along the borders of the city, quite far from the main town. The surrounding was deserted and only few abandoned and half demolished buildings were in sight. Alexander drove there with the evidence and alone as Sophia had demanded and was allowed in through the gate by Sophia's armed men. He was directed on where to part his convertible, which he did and them came down. The armed men searched him thoroughly to be sure he wasn't with any arms, wires of any sort, or cameras and then, they escorted him into the house and led him past the empty room, which was supposed to be the living room, through a corridor and into another room, where Sophia and her father were seated on two dinning chairs at the rou
