Until she met him 59. The Punishment
Alexander quickly hanged up the call, dressed up and took his car keys. He instantly headed downstairs making his way to the company. He was fuming in anger whilst he was driving to the company,”I can’t behave I pay people hundreds of thousands of dollars every two weeks only to be driving to my company by this time of the night because of incompetent fo*ls……they better be ready to be fired by the time I get to the company if I have resolve the issue myself..”, exclaimed angrily to himself in the car.He kept on hissing and cussing throughout his drive to the company. The coldness and hardness on his face made even he security man on duty shiver and turned not to approach him like he initially wanted to. When he got to the floor of the IT department, he saw most of the IT workers around the CPU of the computer whilst one could be seen skillfully typing away on the computer. He looked amongst them but couldn’t find Jake,”where the heck is Jake?…” Everyone stopped the chick chatting
Until she met him 60. Sleepless Night
Alexander sat down and looked at him from head to toe then vice versa making Jake flush red in shame. “I wanted to punish you but seeing your appearance, I think you’ve punished yourself already. You can leave, I won’t be coming to work early in the morning, I can feel a headache coming up. I will be taking my prescription so I can sleep a bit so postpone any meeting I his morning.” Jake nodded before pausing,”mmm Boss, you have a meeting with Alice Jet, the heiress of the Jet Empire. Should I postpone it too?”, he asked Alexander dismissively as if he wasn’t going to read meaning into his reply. Alex was already standing to leave when he heard what Jake said,”No! don’t postpone it, what time is it??” Jake was staring at him in surprise as if he had suddenly grown three heads. So his suspicions were really true? Alexander was interested in Alice Jet? The Alice Jet without even meeting her? Amazing!Jake cleared his throat dramatically,” mm boss? don’t you want to rest again since y
Until she met him 61. The Meeting
After breakfast with the children, Alice left directly to her company to get her documents for the meeting at the Johnson and Johnson company. When she got to the company, she sat in the car for a very long time trying herself a prep talk before getting down from the car. After putting her documents in their right place in her document bag, Nene came into her office to inform her that the other executives were ready to go to the Johnson and Johnson company for the meeting. “Knock knock knock knock “ “Come in..” Alice replied off mind, she was too lost in her thought to even know what was going on around her. She blinked her eyes severally to push her thoughts away when she saw Nene come to her view. “Madam Alice, the executives are ready to leave to the Johnson and Johnson company, they are waiting for your orders to know whether they can go ahead to the company or wait for you…..” Alice nodded,”what about Mr. Kim?..” Nene hid the mocking smile she started nursing at the mention

Alexander left the conference room without waiting for a reply from anyone. The strange looks Jake was getting from all those present made him want to follow Alexander but was stopped by how Alexander hurried out of the conference as if he was being chased by a wild beast.Everyone other member of the Johnson and Johnson company was looking at Alice with wild accusations written all over their faces along with disgust. “She intentionally made an entrance to seduce our big boss!”“How unnerving!”“She’s a seductress as the rumors claim!”“Huff!”“Dora you are right, did you see how she walked in seductively swinging her hips like she’s the most flexible person ever and beautiful person ever. Huff! She’s not even that beautiful! I feel she’s all fake and has done a lot of plastic surgeries to look that good!”“Shhhh you two be quiet, your voices are too loud…..”, a voice whispered to them from behind. Dora rolled her eyes in annoyance,”so?, Am I lying?, didn’t you see her when she came

“……so that brings us to the end of the presentation. Any questions for me?…”, Alice finished with a warm dimpled smile.Alexander turned to look at the audience, that’s when he saw the looks the men were giving her. He glared at them,”look on the damn board and ask some fucking valid questions!..”, he stated angrily. He didn’t know why but the lustful looks the other men in the room was giving Alice was making his blood boil.His outburst was a surprise to a lot of people in the room including Alice herself but not Jake, he wasn’t surprised at all since he had been at the receiving end of such outburst too often to count and knew exactly how they come about.“Have you people even gotten a word of the entire presentation she made, all I can see is hormonal grown men on heat!…..”, Alexander exclaimed once again angrily whilst glaring at the men in the room.Nene had to covered her mouth to prevent herself from giggling out loud. What Alexander said was indeed true because throughout her

Jake was dying inside with laughter,’oh I knew it!, no wonder he didn’t stop me when I was offering the office to her. I took the chances on my job because he was my friend but I still won! hahaha hahaha….Alexander is finally interested in another woman after all this years!’, he thought happily to himself whilst eyeing Alexander and Alice discreetly.“Well I guess that solves it….Miss Jet, welcome to Johnson and Johnson company for the next twelve months! We hope you will enjoy your stay here, may need friends and also maybe find love…..”,Jake muttered with a smirk.***** After the meeting, Alice Jet was being congratulated by her colleagues and members of the Johnson company but her entire attention was on the man that was walking away happily and whistling. Jake was walking behind Alex as he stared amusingly at the latter one as he walked and whistled happily whilst nodding his head to an imaginary rhythm.Jake,” “ he thought as he shock his head in amazement. Jake walked beside A
Until she met him 65. Reasons Why
Alex stood up and threw everything from his table including his laptop and documents, things could be heard breaking outside his office. “You connived with my family and your family to kill my family!!!!!!” Jane Li felt her life flash before her eyes, then suddenly everything Alex had done to her, his family excluding his mother and grandmother not forgetting her family finally made sense. Over the years, Alex made sure that the Johnson and Johnson company withdrew every contract they had with the Li company pushing the Li company to an almost bankruptcy. He avoided the Li and Johnson family as much as he could, he didn’t attend any of the parties organized by the Li or Johnson family over the years even when he was personally invited. “I….I…I..I don’t know what you are talking about?…..we didn’t do anything to Alice I swear, she just disappeared!!….” Alex wanted to kill the girl looking at him with the frightening expression,”do you think I’m dumb…..hahaha do you know what happe

Jane Li fell on the floor and looked at Alex with teary eyes and a sad expression. “Oh….that’s not all, you will continue to be my ‘fiancé’ until the day I finally get someone I want to marry settle down with. Then and only then will I break off our proposed engagement and set you ‘free’”, Alexander bawled at her with a stoic expression. It was at that very moment that Jane Li realized that she had ruined her life even before it began and also got to know the reason why Alexander agreed to be engaged to her publicly but treated her with indifference for years now. After saying all he had to say to Jane Li, Alexander turned his back slowly and left the office. He felt he was suffocating in that room, her presence in that room brought back lots of memories both good and bad. He took in sharp breathes of air immediately he got out of the company in long strides. He entered his car and drove out of the company in full speed leaving the jumbled Jane Li in the office. It actually took qui

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.

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
Until she met him 243. Richard’s Interest
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
Until she met him 240. Worse Than A Monster
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
