ALEXANDER'S POVWith the way things are beginning to unravel right in front of us, I began to wonder what would have happened if we had invited the detection right from the beginning. I was in the conference room with a few other CEOs, some about my age and others older than myself. We had all presented and perched perfectly. I knew my company would be hitting this mega gift the moment I stepped in. It didn't take long for me to finish and I was asked to sign the contract ASAP. I was excited and happy that my pen began to tremble. I haven't hit any gig since the trouble began at Solara. Since Don Derego has vowed to keep stealing our clients. Well for this major contract, I had my terms. I presented it to them. At first, they were skeptical and wondered why my company would ask them to pay 50 percent of all investment funds to us if they bridge the contract before the due time.I smiled and responded in the most professional way that I could. Just when I was about to leave I met Don De

ALEXANDER'S POVThere is no greater joy than having my son in my arms. A proud father and a successful CEO.Solara Helixia will be great again and even greater than anyone has ever imagined even after I am gone. I bless the day I succumb to my mother's pressure of taking this young and beautiful lady as a contract bride. I must say I am the most blessed man to have my entire being surrounded by massive blessings and goodness. This indeed was a miracle.The last few days gave birth to so much joy for me that I took a few days off work. James and the others would manage the team and anytime they wanted to reach me via mail I was sure to respond.We are home now. And I can't take my eyes off my babies. I could spend the next few hours kissing and hugging them one after the other." Can they see me yet?". I asked too ignorant or excited to know."Not yet Alex, they are just two days old," Helena pointed out."So you mean they can't see me?" Yes huh, give them a few more days and they wi

ALEXANDER'S POV.It's a beautiful morning, to begin with. I had to resume work as the workload at my table increased drastically within the few days I was absent from work. Tons of documents to sign and approve and a pile of emails I intentionally left in my inbox. Family time was important to me as well as work and I never hesitate to strike a balance between the two whenever I deem it necessary. I was sitting in my office rocking myself happily on my seat, slowly munching on the potato chips my wife had packed for. I was on my way to work this morning when suddenly I heard a knock that seemed like a catch from a lion's paw on my door. I paused and listened again making sure I wasn't delusional or being deceived by my senses. The knock came again. "Come in," I said, hurrying to crack out the larger pieces of potato chips I had stuck in my mouth. My eyes widened hoping to see anyone else other than James or any of the other staff. It's better to have a shameless time with my staff

HELENA'S POVIt's been three weeks since I gave birth to my baby boys. Alexander has been of great help to me as well as Maggie. Being a mother is not so easy after. My best friend Gabriel has never stopped calling to check on us every single day and on one of our talk times, he promised to bring my dad to the house since my dad didn't trust Alexander's drivers that much. He had told me he wasn't getting in a car with a stranger. I laughed and told him I would send Gabriel to pick him up. Today is defanged to be a great day. I woke up pretty early given that I had been awake almost all through the night. I had managed to make him sleep dancing and rocking him till he was comfortable. Today is Sunday. I had already sent out invites to the new people I had in my life. Alex had also sent out invites to one or two of his friends and associates. He wasn't the very friendly type but he sure knows how to keep a business Partner. We had agreed to host a few friends for dinner at least to

HELENA'S POV.My Dad stood with his mouth gaping at Mrs. Stone. And so was I. "A brand new house" "Ya. It's All yours" she said with a smile on her face. By now she had gone over to carry one of the babies in her arm. "They are so cute". She says I smiled nodding my head in agreement. I was happy I didn't witness this alone. From being a wife on paper to being his real wife. "I thought about how to come clean of my Sins and that was the only thing that kept ringing in my heart. You can keep the land too".For real? I asked in surprise. I batted my eyelids at her. Letting out a soft chuckle. This has to be a miracle. Looking into my dad's eyes I could see the excitement he was trying to hide. He blushed and smiled from ear to ear. I could remember just a few months ago how both families were all fist and blood because of some hidden reasons. Those nights alone in my room were the most horrible nights of my life as I could recall the hot arguments with Alex and how his mom treate
