The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 30: Sophia's Intervention
Author's POV “I won't be needing it, ma'am. Please, leave now. The first turn-off is the color of your hair and your outfit. We don't entertain that here,” the receptionist half-yelled at Alexandra, who nodded with her cheeks looking flushed from embarrassment. “All right. Thanks,” she mumbled, forcing a smile before walking out. The receptionist's heart ached for her, she couldn't even come up with a good excuse and lied that her appearance wasn't appealing enough. Alexandra's name was forwarded to her this morning to never be allowed to be part of the interview. This was the reason why the receptionist was being rude to her. Sophia was abusing her powers as a member of the dual-life squad. The last time Alexandra picked up her calls, she was able to hack into her phone and keep track of her calls and her activities online. Which was why she was aware of the country Alexandra and her mum was in. Sophia came all the way from Australia to see how she was struggling for money
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 31: Kim Clan's Mission
Julian's POV “That's the scope for the next project, sir,” Mr. Stephenson reported. “Do you mean I'm blind?” He jerked his head up and stared at me with wide eyes. “S-Sir, I never….” “Enough!” I slammed my fist on my desk, “This is a total garbage you have here as a scope. I can't believe you gave me such inaccurate information. Your mistake has wasted my valuable time and resources. Deliver this back to me and get it together!” I flung the files in his direction and the papers were flying in the air. He hastily bent over and picked it up. “I’m so sorry, sir. This would never happen again,” he apologized hurriedly, bowing before he walked out of my office. Other team leaders in my office stood with their legs shaking. The next person presented their proposal but I wasn't in the mood for work, their silly mistakes kept getting me riled up. “Everyone should leave my office now!” I barked with my elbow resting on my desk and thumb supporting my chin with my index finger re
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 32: A Week Plus
Author’s POV Julian's phone beeped, it was an anonymous message. A picture was sent to him. He furrowed his brows in confusion, wondering what the picture was all about. He was about to click on it when he got startled by the knock on his car window. He clicked on it unknowingly and the phone fell off his grip. He glared at Sophia through the window before he picked up his phone. To his surprise, he wasn't able to access the picture anymore. “Have you gone nuts?” He gritted his teeth at Sophia, pushing the door opened and she flinched. He looked really furious and she wondered if he was mad because of the picture she sent to him. It was the picture of Alexandra and Carlos. She wanted to implant doubts about her in his heart. “T-Tiger, is anything the problem?” She acted docile, feigning a scared expression. Julian cursed under his breath, rubbing his face. He was vexed because he wasn't able to see the picture sent to him. Tracking the number down would take a month or a
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 33: 'I Love You, Granny'
Alexandra’s POV “I'm pregnant with Julian's baby,” I croaked, looking at my mum. Her mouth went agape, gazing at me in astonishment. Carlos insisted on dropping my home which I wasn't liking because that makes him knows where I live. I sniffled, wiping my tears and tucking the strands of my hair behind my ear. “I guess that explains why I have been feeling weak lately,” I added, my eyes feel puffy and red. I couldn't stop the tears that kept gushing out of my eyes, playing with my fingers as I await my mum's response. I was reminded of the night I spent with him before I left Australia. “Do you regret it?” I darted my head to my mum. She pressed her lips together, blinking back her tears as she came closer to me. “Do you?” She repeated with our eyes fixed together. I didn't hesitate before shaking my head negatively. “He has nothing to do with this. I forced him to sleep with me and I enjoyed every moment of it. But getting pregnant….” I couldn't complete my words as I br
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 34: Going Back To Her
Julian's POV Nine Months Later. The completion of the mission was done several months ago. But we had to stay low for months because the authorities had been investigating the gangs that brought the massacre to the election that took place. I have been in Dagnus’s Villa for months, and today was my last day. I groaned with my face buried on the pillow. This was my assigned room I have been in for the last few months. Finally, Alexandra's location has been found and I plan on leaving the country today. From all my investigations, everything pointed at Sophia. Her reasons for playing such tricks was still unknown to me, but it's confirmed that the person behind her was Dagnus. It infuriates me that I have to pretend I knew nothing about what he did. Everything would be sorted out later until I am able to bring Alexandra back to the country. When that is done, I'm certainly sure Dagnus would be totally displeased so I would gladly quit being a member without holding back.
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 35: Meeting Her Again
Julian's POV Arriving in the States, I was shocked to see that Alex's location led me to an hospital. I alighted from my car and entered. But I was stunned to see a stretcher, pushed in with a pregnant woman on it. From the side of her face, I knew who she was already. It was as if the whole universe had stopped for that moment when I heard Alex's cries as she was rushed in. I forgot to breathe and my heart skipped a beat. “Alex, dear. You can do this,” I clutched my chest when I heard Madam Cassandra’s crying voice and I gasped in fear. ‘What happened? How did she get pregnant?’ I thought, my eyes are glued on her stomach. My legs worked on their own and I strode towards them. My heart pounded in my chest, recalling our last moment together and the possibility of the child being mine. “Acosta,” I called out longingly when I got closer. Madam Cassandra turned back and her eyes widened in astonishment. The nurses stopped pushing the stretcher and Alex's stunned eyes glued on my fa

Julian's POV “That's great then. I have bad news,” the doctor announced and a wave of despair washed over me.“Let's talk in my office then,” said the Doctor. He walked ahead of us and we all followed him. All the way, my heart kept hammering in my chest.All I could pray for was for her condition not to be severe and curable. I'm ready to give it all it takes. Still, I need confirmation to know if the child was truly mine.Arriving in front of the doctor's office, I was about to enter when Carlos stopped me. I groaned inwardly and cast him a dreadful gaze.“I'm not here for you, man. Leave my way,” I told him without smiling.“Well, yeah. I get it. But Madam Cassandra doesn't seem to want your presence around her daughter,” he retorted and I looked over at Madam Cassandra, who was still weeping with her gaze on mine.“Please,” I mumbled under my breath. Finally, she nodded and the @sshole before me left my way before I was able to enter the office.The Doctor cleared his throat, gla

Julian's POV A Few Days Later.“Please, drink this,” I pleaded, raising the spoon of soup to Alex. She only kept staring at me without making an attempt to eat anything. She was seated on the bed, her back was resting on the wall.Madam Cassandra was outside the ward, weeping in the hallway and couldn't bring herself to face Alexandra after what happened earlier this morning. My whole body was shaking with turmoil and I was only acting tough in front of her.“Acosta,” I whispered, dropping the spoon. She didn't say anything and only continued to stare at me. The doctor advised us to always be around her, for her not to lose herself completely.Tears welled in her eyes and that was when she looked away. Her eyes fell on the baby cradle that was beside her bed. It was empty and my heart stung, I looked down at my feet and tried to hold my tears back.It was really hard for me to do because of her expression and how guilty I was for what happened. I heard the bed muffling, making me rai

Alexandra's POVWith a radiating smile as ever, I walked down the aisle with Julian's Dad beside me. My eyes were fixed on Julian all these while, and the guests’ eyes were on me.He looks so handsome in his white tailored-suit. His hair was slightly cut with a smooth side part, standing with his hands locked together in his front.“Careful dear,” I heard his Dad saying to me, I flashed him a smile, nodding as we continued to approach the altar.Majority of the guests were unfamiliar to me, but related to Julian's family.

Alexandra's POV“No. I just want a simple flowy gown. You can come up with the design but I don't want it to be too flashy as this one,” I instructed the wedding designer, declining her suggestion to the gown she wants to make for me.“Okay, ma'am. Got it,’ she flashed me a smile, packing her belongings before leaving the house. I stood up and stretched my body, heading to where Julian was.He was with the event planner and I can't help but feel giddy with the way everything was going.“Hey, baby,” I greeted as I walked closer to him. He pecked my cheeks, pointing at the settings of the hall he was going for.“Do you like them?” He asked with a beautiful smile.The settings were simple, and elegant.Nodding, “I love it. We will go for this, sir,” I said to the man.“All right then. I will be on my way,” “Drive safely,” “Thanks, ma'am,” we both bowed curtly at each other before he walked out.

Alexandra's POV“Baby, wake up,” a voice said softly. I hummed in response with my eyes closed, snuggling closer to the owner of the voice.“Wake up, sleeping beauty,” Julian used my hair to make feathery touches on my face. I rubbed my face roughly before fluttering my eyes opened.He was smiling at me sweetly before he kissed my forehead. Wishing me a good morning and I yawned soundly.I was stunned when he covered his nose, shifting away from me.“Really?” I scoffed, displaying a playful angry expression.“Your morning breath,”“I know right. But you shouldn't have made your displeasure known in that manner,” I said with a slight frown kiddingly.“It smells divine. But I just wanted to be sure that's why I covered my nose,” he made a lame excuse and that got me snickering. I stretched my body and the duvet fell off.I was totally naked! His eyes lingered on my chest before he made a funny face.“Meow,” I slapped his shoulder when he made that teasing sound. We both chuckled as I co

Alexandra's POV“Hmm,” I moaned as Julian's and I's tongue got entangled. His hands roamed my bare thighs and I shivered because of his cold palms.We were both aroused at this point and I was just in my underwear already. His eyes ogled my body with lust flashing through his eyes, I pulled him closer and kissed him more.The kiss was intense and sloppy, he gave my butt a gentle squeeze. And I moaned louder.“I think we need to stop,” he said huskily, kissing me back. I tried to collide our bodies together, my arms around his neck.I hummed in response without letting go of him. He tried to push me slightly but I didn't bulge. We were both horny and I see no reason why we have to stop now. The room was dark, dimly lit with blue light.“Baby listen,” he succeeded in stopping me, holding my hands. I pouted and he chuckled, pecking my lips.“I want you. More than you want me but we need to stop,” he cautioned. I wriggled my hands from hands hold, held his jaw and kissed him hungrily.He

Alexandra's POV“Are you sure?”“Yes, get on with it already! I see nothing,” I said in a slightly raised voice at my mum. I was all dressed up in a fancy silver dress, my hair was swept to the side with a jewel comb.And the diamond necklace on my neck sparkles under the bright chandelier light in the room, together with my earrings.My make-up was minimal which I was grateful for but I still see no reason for this. Julian called, and I was asked to dress up to attend a party.Now that we have arrived, my eyes were covered with a blindfold with my mum leading me inside the hall. My three-inch heels soft click sound on the floor was heard as we entered the grand hall.For some reason, I was jealous of the owner of the occasion. Perhaps Julian doesn't want me to know my way in or something. Whichever reason it might be, I still couldn't find one to support his decision.“Aren't we there yet?”“Soon, baby. Be patient,” my mum responded and I responded with a sigh.“Is Jasmine with Julix

Alexandra's POV“DLS corporation proposed a deal. And I smell something tricky in there,” Marcus pointed out as Julian glanced through the contents.His expression deepened before he passed the folder back to Marcus.“Baby, what's happening?” I asked him with concern written all over my face. He shook his head and kissed my forehead.“It's nothing to be worried about. I got this,” he kissed my forehead again before rubbing Julixa's head and turned to Marcus.“My car or yours?”“Are you leaving?” I asked in a slightly raised voice.“Mine,” Marcus responded.“I'll be back soon,” Julian said to me before walking out, leaving me to guess what could be happening.I dropped Julixa on the floor and bit my fingernails nervously.“Is Julian out? I heard a car driving out,” I turned around when I heard a voice. It was Jasmine, she was coming down from the stairs.I nodded before sitting on the couch. She came to me and crouched.“What happened? Did Julian fight with you?” She asked me in a more

Alexandra's POV “No, they don't,” Julian responded with a sullen expression, referring to his parents and my eyes widened in surprise. Even though I expected this response from him. I don't know why I'm still surprised. “It makes sense to me now. I tend to wonder why you chose to be a member of a so-called organization when you have influential parents that can get you to the top,” I said out my mind. “I was young and stubborn, determined and brave. I wanted to do this on my own, and I don't regret it at all….” He paused, turning to face me. My back rested on the bed bunk while he was seated on the edge of the bed. “Not until recently and the stripper thing came up,” he continued, explaining to me how he got to be a member without his parents knowing. I asked him. I heaved a deep sigh and stood up, going to sit beside him. His expression was seldom and I rubbed his cheeks with my palms. “Is there a way for you to back out?” “Yeah,” he responded and I raised a brow. “Really? W

It's not-” “Babe,” he cut me off, holding my shoulder.“She should be the one nervous, not the other way around. One way or the other, this has to be solved. Plus, I will be there with you so you don't have to worry. Okay?” He flashed me a reassuring smile and I nodded with anxiety written all over my face.We were currently in front of his parents’ room. After breakfast this morning, I decided for us to settle whatever that was between us. And Julian was here to accompany me.Taking a sharp breath, I knocked on the door and we were permitted to go in. My heart was hammering in my chest as we entered.His mum was playing chess game alone, I glanced around the room for his dad but he wasn't found.“Wow, sweetie. You came to visit me in my room,” she jolted up from the couch, walking closer to hug me.I hugged her back, my gaze on Julian who smiled.“I just wanted to se
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 46: The Assignment He Started
Julian's POV“Come in,” I permitted the person knocking on my office door to enter without gazing up to see the person. I have a lot of work to do, proposals that need my signature and many more.Since Alex's arrival, I hadn't had enough time to come to the company and get busy with work. I wasn't in the right state of mind to add work to my problems.Hearing no voice, I raised my head and found Marcus at the door. The pen I was holding fell from my grip and I leaned into my chair.A small smile formed on my lips before I stood up abruptly.“What's good, man?” We gripped each other into a manly embrace. How can I forget his kind gesture, watching over my company when I was away.“I’m good, I'm good. I expected you to have lost some weight,” he joked and I chuckled slightly, disengaging from the hug.I went back to sit on my swivel chair and he settled across from me.“How is she doing now?” He asked me and I sighed heavily. I recalled our little moment yesterday morning before she sen
