Alexander expression turned deadly and indifferent with every sentence Mark made. They were not surprised at the room number because it was the room number of the room Alice was supposed to stay in for the night.“Thanks for today guys, but it’s late and I guess you are all tired. Retire to your rooms for the night. We will talk tomorrow,”he muttered to them lowly before he turned away from them towards the door. He walked out straight away from them through the door, he realized that Alice was in a much bigger danger than he had earlier anticipated. He walked away from his friends with confident strolls but deep down he was very troubled.His friends all stood quietly and deeply bothered as they watched him walk away from them.He got his door and sighed deeply in relief when he saw that nothing was out of place in the hallway, meaning Alice was safe and sound, probably still asleep soundly in bed.He got to door when the head of the security came to him and bowed,”boss, everything
Alexander would be seen through the glass transparent bathroom door by Alice who was currently seated at the edge of the bed wiping her tears with the back of her hands. She stood up with firm determination about giving him the second chance of happiness she had been denying herself and the entire family since she arrived to the country. She decided to feed her cravings and make reuniting the family her major priority.Alexander made up his mind to take a shower to clear his thoughts leaving Alice sound asleep in the bedroom. She was on the bed, sleeping whilst looking so adorable and beautiful. After filling the tub to the brim, He turned the faucet off. After lighting some jasmine candles to create a calm vibe, He selected Kehlani’s “It Was Good Until It Wasn’t” album to play on shuffle. Alexander entered the tub just as “Serial Lover” started playing. Relaxing into the tub, He started thinking of how bad the had been and the day and how he would have liked to experience the pleasur
As the first rays of sunlight lit up the room. The dawn chorus of melodic birdsong drifted in. The rising sun cast a rosy hue across the morning sky. Golden fingers of sunlight lit up the scene. The room was cold and the soft snoring in the room could be heard from the bed.Alice was the first of the two to be awake, she blinked her eyes at the brightness of the room and closed it for while before reopening it to adjust to the room.She looked around the room and saw unfamiliar environment, she frowned lightly as she took a look around the room. Finally her eyes rested on the slight movements on the bed and her ears picked up a soft snoring besides her.She turned slowly to the source of both movements and soft snore and was met with the peaceful face of Alexander whose mouth was slightly opened as he snored softly.Her eyes widened in horror, she looked at herself and saw that she was wearing a big oversized hoodie with a boxer short. She lifted the band of the boxer short and gasped
He smiled and pecked her lightly on her lips. And with a husky voice but soft voice, he broke the heavy silence in the room.“Hi babe”His goofy smile was enough to crack her hard interior to produce a sweet smile on her face.“Hi”, she muttered shyly.Alexander’s smile grew bigger, as if that was even possible.“I missed you so damn much!”, he whispered into her ears. Alice rolled her eyes at him,”as if! Huff! You had Jane Li with you all those times I wasn’t around. You didn’t miss me at all because you also had company either the ladies or the guys,”She uttered in annoyance.Alexander smiled deepened,”well well, who would have thought that I will live to see the day my beloved wife will be jealous.” He stated jokingly.Alice glared at him childishly,”stop joking about this! I’m serious dummy.”Alexander laughed out at her forced glare and flushed face. His loud laughter was actually a sight to behold. His eyes glistens in the light and his whole face brightens as his white teeth ma
Alexander went to the boutique with the instructions he was given. He got to Mimi’s boutique to get the outfit for Alice as ordered by his boss and friend. He went around the shop to get her an outfit. He got her Balmain High-rise boyfriend jeans trousers and a whiteDolce & Gabbana crystal-embellished cropped top. His boss did say earlier that money wasn’t his problem and being the handler of his card, he decided to spend as much as possible on his bosses ‘woman’. After all, Alice Jet is also a multibillionaire who deserves nothing but the best, he convinced himself with a nod. He paired the outfit with a Saint Laurent opyum 110 suede sandals for women. He bought a beige colored one matching it with a Saint Laurent medium Sunset shoulder bag also in beige.After picking the original designers items, he went to the counter to pay his bills earning a lot of stares from all the other people doing their shopping around the reception area.He was attracting strange glances, he was a male d
Assistant Jake, all confused and curious when he entered the room. He had long forgotten that Bismarck had pushed him into the mess he had just walked into. Slowly but surely he made his way into the room, the aroma of fried eggs and bacon still lingering in the air. He sniffed and frowned, he was even more confused than when he saw all the security personnels at the hallway.He went to inspect the kitchen first and saw everything tidied up and clean but the smell of the eggs and bacon was stronger than when he was in the living room. A thorough look around revealed that the dishes was probably done just a while ago as it still appeared wet and there was some droplets of water on the sink and tiled floor.He tiptoed into the bedroom silently as he wanted to know who was with Alexander, he could hear the mutters coming from the said room. He entered the bedroom with a loud bang of the door then he screamed loudly as he threw his hands in air and paced up and down without looking at his
The team got to their various cars, the total number of cars left the lobby was ten cars, five luxurious sport cars and five luxurious vans. Alexander and Alice took his car, Jake and the other guys took their personal cars as the security took five cars. Alexander was driving with his hand in Alice’s hand as they lay on her thighs. He was beyond nervous, his mind was wandering and he kept thinking about how the kids will behave towards him when they finally learn the truth. He knew Junior already knew and had accepted him as his father but the greater challenge was how to win over his daughter Alexia. Alice saw how he held the car sheering wheels with a hard grip and could practically feel the nervousness radiating from him.“Hey, are you okay?”, she questioned in a rather smoothing and calm voice to reassure him of her presence.He exhaled and sighed deeply for sometime before turning to give her a quick glance full of anxiety and doubts. “It’s just that, mmm I’m quite nervous you
William giggled at the face she was making as her both mother and father turned their attention to her brother. The sounds from the giggle alerted Alexia of the presence of more people than just the two people she was concentrated on. She looked taken back by the presence of the extremely good looking men who was standing behind her Prince Charming. She noticed that three of the men was look at her with very big smiles on their faces making them resemble a smiling Cheshire Cat but one of the good looking men was looking at the entire scene with a confused look. He looked awfully familiar to her hence she couldn’t help but ask him a polite yet timid voice.“Hello, Mr. Handsome in the grey suit. Well you are the only one in a suit though, do-do I know you or have we seen before? Mmmm I don’t know why but you look awfully familiar to me.” She told him.Assistant Jake was the one she was referring to, if it was possible he became even more confused after Alexia addressed him personally. H
The church was decorated beautifully and well wishers sitting pretty in each role. The theme colors of the said wedding seems to be rose and gold, a perfect combination for such a warm weather and a beautiful occasion. A man of God dressed in all write was seen standing at the alter with a speaker in his had as he spoke to the crowd in high spirit.“Dearly beloved, We are gathered together here to unite (bride & groom) in marriage. This contract and commitment is not to be entered into lightly, but with thoughtfully and seriousness with a deep realization of its obligations and responsibilities. Please remember that love, loyalty, and understanding are the foundations of a happy and enduring home……”, he started his sermon with those beautiful words that captured the heart of everyone in the church.The sermon continued and every heart was rejoice at the priest’s sermons and his wordings. He was giving out advises, sincere and unbiased advises so most of them didn’t want the sermon to c
Diane didn’t want to leave the grave yard, she didn’t want to leave her baby alone there and leave. She felt doing that meant abandoning her in that lonely place, she sat comfortably on the green grass beside Charlotte’s grave and refused to get up from there. The cemetery was empty apart from the four of them, Romeo couldn’t leave Diane either and Alexander and Alice couldn’t afford to leave them alone there. The workers hired had already filled the grave with soil and it wasn’t easy for Diane during that period, she had to be held tightly in a tight embrace by Romeo who wasn’t feeling any better than her but was rather finding strength in his grieving heart. It was an emotional rollercoaster for everyone present at the grave yard especially when Diane lay down on Charlotte’s grave in the rain, talking and whispering sweet nothings to her through the grave. The workers were in the rain waiting for her to leave so they can start with leveling the floor and start with the grave moulding
The news, the sad news of the murder of the small girl broke everyone in the entire country. The news of the little stranger didn’t only break their heart but the pain of her demise cut them deep in their hearts and they all cried out in pain of her untimely death. Getting to know of how she dead through a blunt force trauma to the head at the hands of her father was the most heartbreaking news reported.Alexander didn’t even know how the call with Jane ended that day nor did he realize he was crying until Alice shirt was drenched in his tears and his was drenched in her tears. Everyone present shed tears uncontrollably and Lilly literally broke down and haven’t been the same since that day. According to Jane’s source and a recording she sent to him over the phone that day, Robert Pint confined in a lady and was confessing to her in what seems to be a phone call. His voice could be heard to be hoarse and was obviously hyperventilating over the phone. He kept repeating,”I killed her!
Seeing their curiosity and anxiety, Alexander decided to put the call on speaker so everyone can hear what was going on with the call.“Hello? Alexander? You good? How’s Alice and the family doing? Oh! How’s grandma? I miss her asf! Did that Romeo guy contact you? There’s some developments in the case and he said he will tell you personally so I shouldn’t be the one to tell you. Did he tell you?”, Jane’s voice filled his ear drums and room with questions after questions making those present in the room giggle softly at how fast she was talking and asking the questions.“Everyone is fine and also extends their greetings to you guys and yeah the Romeo guy did contact me, in fact he just left here and that’s why I called you.” Alexander verbalized.“Mmm-that’s cool. What it is?”, she asked him curiously whilst cooing at the little baby in her arms. “We need your help”. Alexander stated with a hard look on his face as his mind wandered back to the issue of little Charlotte.Jane paused he
Jake smiled sadly and cleared his throat,”I think his problem wasn’t any of that but the fact that it was a man. He probably got drunk and did it with a man and is now beating himself up because he doesn’t know how to handle such a feeling.” He verbalized as everyone one nodded in understanding to what Jake muttered, only for that moment of understanding to be cut short by a hoarse voice.“I was the sober one but he was drunk!”, the hoarse voice of Richard echoed in the room as they all turned to face the direction of the voice. They were all baffled to see the two friends who fought barely a minute ago in each others arms. Richard was looking at them with red bloodshot eyes and Philip hugged him to himself tightly.Philip frowned deeply and push away from Richard slightly,”You were the sober one and he was the drunk one? Then why the heck were you playing the victim card for days now?! I mean you were literally rude to him since he got here because of what exactly?!”, Philip questione
An initial silence went through the room like a hurricane before the storm of their reaction followed. The chorus of their response was all in agreement with what Alexander suggested because she was apparently the best person they can all turn to in this tricky situation. She was also very much involved in the case as much as they were and wants to the truth to be revealed. They all came together for a common agreement on the plans and strategy for bringing down those powerful wicked men at the high places. The plan was simple per their agreement, Jane Li slash Jane Muller is supposed to be added to plan and Alexander was responsible for bringing her up to date with their plans and the solutions they put in place to achieve what they wanted.Then Jane was supposed to convince Robert Pint’s mistress to turn against him and bring her to their side by means of bribe or any other means possible. The amount of money and the luxuries were out of the world and they plan on granting all of th
“Well, I think I made a mistake by saying he was like my father because my father is better than him in some aspects, he is worse than a monster. Charlotte wasn’t born in the hospital but in the house because Diane is an illegal immigrant and hence she didn’t have her papers and let’s not forget that he hid her throughout her pregnancy so when she had to give birth, it was done in the house with his assistance. Charlotte is not in the system so if he kills and bury her right now, the world won’t know a thing about it nor will they ask questions. He never intended on marrying Diane until the cries of the baby got the attention of the neighbors and murmurs began going around in the community and raising alarm. He had no choice but to get married to her and make her a legalized citizen. So now they both know what he’s capable of and since Charlotte doesn’t technically exist, he can get away with killing her and leaving the only witness to be Diane who he also plans to kill and put an end
Alexander sat quietly in the couch and leaned back a bit as he observed both Richard and Romeo, especially their body language and facial expression. He turned quietly to glance at Philip who felt the hot gaze at the side of his face and turned to him. The two stared at each other for sometime before the light bulb light up in Alexander’s mind and recognition became evident to him. He gasped softly and turned to Richard in shock but before he could master the strength and confront him, Romeo cleared his throat loudly to get their attention.“Richard right? I don’t know what I’ve ever done to you since I came inside but I don’t do married women and I most certainly don’t do any woman. They are not exactly my mmm-preference, my name might be Romeo but I’m not like that Romeo in literature. I can proudly say I am my authentic self and I prefer the opposite of things he likes.” He verbalized and checked out Richard who was blushing openly like a school boy. Everyone in the room suddenly un
Romeo closed his eyes tightly and cussed out loud,”fuck it! I don’t want a word of any information I will be giving here, I don’t want it to leave this room. I can’t wait to be done with this fuck case because it is causing me a lot of headache and my morals! This is too draining and suffocating because for the first time, I’m now thorn between doing what is right, what is wrong and what feels right and sincerely speaking, I can’t decide which path I want to take.” Alexander turned around to face Alice then at the guys before he spoke on the behalf of all of them present in the room.“You have our word, whatever you say here, stays here with us and not a soul away from this group will hear the wind of it. This is my promise to you.” Alexander muttered to him with a sincere voice and soft nod. Romeo nodded unconsciously with his mind turning against him as he glance at them numbly. He took a deep breathe and just hoped from the button of his heart that he was about to do the right thin
