CHAPTER FOURTY ONE

ALEXANDER

Sally and I went to see the beach together. We also visited the park before we decided to head home. We spent the whole day outside, and it was already getting late.

"I thought we were supposed to rest on Saturdays," Sally giggled. "Now we spent the whole day out."

We drove home.

While walking into the house, I tried to keep my eyes off Sally. She looked prettier than ever today.

We walked upstairs together. Sally suddenly stopped in front of her room and turned around to face me.

I smiled deeply as I stared at her.

"I had so much fun today," she confessed.

"Maybe we should do this more often," I said.

Sally didn't say another word. She only smiled deeply and lowered her gaze to the floor.

"What do you say?" I asked her.

She shook her head and lifted her gaze to face me. Our eyes locked, and I felt cold shivers all over me.

"Why would I deny such and opportunity," she asked and bit her lower lip.

I had nothing to do online. I just wanted to escape chores."James," my mom called for the fiftieth time today.I turned to face her without saying anything. "Do you need the VIP table at the right side of the hall or left side?" She asked me. "Left side," I replied carelessly and continued pressing my phone. My mom went ahead with the event planners. Her phone soon began to vibrate, and she quickly picked it up. "Hello."She listened quietly for a while, and a smile broke through her lips. "Maybe you would come over later and pick more of the cards. I have three more guests that I want to invite."She soon hung up and faced me. "How many invites are on your list?" She asked me. "Uhm..." I scratched my head. "A few friends, and some random celebrities."She nodded. "I invited your... y

    CHAPTER FOURTY THREESALLYI was working in my office when I heard a soft knock on the door. I lifted my head to stare at the door, and before I could say a word, the door opened, and James walked into my office. I smiled when I saw him. It had been long since I saw James last. He smiled as he came to my table. I stood up to give him a side hug. "At least, I'm glad that you're excited to see me." James told me. I smiled. "Of course," I replied. James took his seat, and I did, too. "Here," he said, handing me an invitation card. I took the card and stared at it. "Twenty-second anniversary?" I asked with my eyes wide open. James nodded. "Make sure you're there," he told me. I nodded. "Of course," I responded. "Is there a reason I shouldn't be there?" He leaned forward. "You, tell me," he responded. I smiled deeply. "None.""Are you aware of the fact that Alexander..." James began to speak but suddenly trailed off. "Alexander, did what?" I asked curiously. "It's nothing.

My face flushed red, although his stares were a little uncomfortable. "Waking up to a handsome face makes you blush. I've noted that," Alex teased me. I rolled my eyes and looked away. Flashes of last night came to my memory, and a smile curved out on my lips. "I guess you won a jackpot last night," Alex continued to tease me. "The way you're smiling and blushing."I turned to face him. "I enjoyed last night," I told him. "At least, I got to experience what it felt like since I wasn't drunk this time. "Alex sighed a pretentious sigh of relief. "I really thought you'd wake up and stab me this time."I giggled. "Honestly," I began to speak, with a serious look as I placed my hand on Alex's chest. "Last night was a special one."He smiled deeply, revealing his cute dimples. It was hard to believe that I finally had s

    CHAPTER FOURTY FIVE ALEXANDER Flashback.I was already on my way home from the office when I suddenly noticed a car parked by the corner. It looked exactly like Sally's car, so I decided to see for myself if Sally was truly the one who was stranded on the road. I parked behind her car and alighted from mine. I pointed a torchlight and was shocked to see Sally sleeping in her car. I opened the door, and it was not locked. I slapped my forehead. How could she be so careless?What would have happened if someone else had walked in here and saw her that way. A car soon pulled up in front of us. I looked towards the car as the lights went off. Someone alighted from the car and began to walk towards us. When he was close enough, I quickly recognised him as one of the drivers at home. "Sir, she called me a while ago to pick her up," he informed me. I nodded. "It's fine," I informed him. "I would just take it from here."The driver stood there staring at me with a confused look.

After James's father was done with his speech, he was called together with his family to cut the anniversary cake. They spelt Whites to cut the cake, and after that, Diane left hurriedly. James walked up to me and came to sit in front of me. Music was already all over, and people were now dancing at the open dance floor. "You know that's Alex's seat, right?" I asked James. He nodded calmly. "And you know he wouldn't want to see you there when he comes back, right?" I asked James. He nodded. "Do you know that I've been trying to get your attention since?" James asked me. I shifted uncomfortably. I didn't want him to flatter me. I looked around for Alex, hoping that he wouldn't come back and make trouble with James.

I didn't like attending meetings because it reminded me of what they did to me. I picked up my phone and began to scroll through it. "The CEO is online now," Mr Johnson announced. "When would we stop having this kind of meeting with him?" Miss Sheila asked. She hissed and folded her arms. The anonymous CEOs voice came in, and we picked up. I wasn't interested in the meeting, so I wasn't listening to everything that was being said to him. "I agree with that."I lifted my head in surprise after hearing the voice of the anonymous CEO for the first time. I was shocked because he sounded exactly like Alex, but I decided to let it slide. "Just create a document and forward it to me. I'd just go through it."I stared at the screen in shock. The voice call was still going on, but I could no longer hear a word. I slapped myself.

The only call I saw was that of her mom and other unimportant calls. I walked back to the bag lying on the floor of our room. I opened the bag and stared into it for a while.
