031: Going Public II

Matthew's POV "Alexander? Married?" I exclaimed the moment I read the headlines of a viral Facebook post. "Since when did that bastard get married? And to who—" "Boss, you have a visitor." Viktor's announcement interrupted me. I turned around to meet Cynthia sashaying towards me, her face contorted with confusion and rage. "How long have you known that he was married? How long have you been wasting my time?!" She queried angrily before slamming the magazine in her hand on the table. I rose from my seat and steadily walked to the middle of the room to get a glance of the book she had just dramatically slammed onto the table. It was on the front page, Alexander's marriage announcement. He had definitely gone all out with the news, but for what purpose? What exactly was he trying to accomplish here? I questioned myself. However, now was not the time for that. Cynthia was clearly confused and angry, and while she had failed to read my expressions correctly, I also felt the same way sh

032: Who Is The Lucky Girl?

Cynthia's POV She can’t possibly be his wife, can she? The woman I saw at the restaurant? The overreacting one? I questioned myself as I slowly walked towards my car. No, that doesn’t make sense. Alexander would never go for someone like her. He was far out of her league, and there wasn't really anything special about her. She didn't have the grace nor the elegance to catch the attention of a man like Alexander Forger. But then again, it was impossible to just throw the possibility away especially after what had happened yesterday. He had chased after her the moment she left the restaurant, the old Alexander would never chase after a woman, never! And now, this? Suddenly announcing his marriage? It couldn't possibly be a coincidence. Had she forced him to announce their marriage in order to keep the other women away from Alex? It was likely to be the case, especially after seeing how angry and jealous she had been at the restaurant yesterday. However, all of this was based on the

033: A Second Chance

Alexander's POV It was expected, and she hadn't been the first person to question me about it. The news was everywhere now, and I had gotten dozens of emails regarding the matter. Few were congratulatory messages, while the majority were questions from colleagues that I had worked with in the past, a few that I couldn't even recognize. "That's not something you should worry yourself with. It wouldn't help you in any way now, would it?" I returned while I slowly slipped my hand away from hers. "I beg to differ." Came a sharp reply from Cynthia who picked up her glass the moment I stole my hand away from hers. "I want you back, Al, and now you're suddenly married? Did you do it to spite me? Or have you simply just kept your marriage away in order to lead me on?" I rolled my eyes inwardly. As always Cynthia was so full of herself. I had been wondering since the day she called me. What was she really up to? Could it really be that she was in love with me, and genuinely wanted us back

034: Consequences

Heather's POV Hearing everybody talk about Alexander's marriage and who the mystery wife might be was already weird enough, but it was nothing compared to being escorted out of the classroom by two men dressed in suites with black tinted shades. The last thing I wanted was to be the center of attention especially when everybody was looking around for the possible wife of Alexander Forger. The whispers and murmurings had begun before I even had the chance to leave the class. I held my face down, wondering where these men could have possibly come from. My heart pounded erratically as I followed the two figures. What if they worked for Mathew? Had it been a mistake to force Alexander into announcing our marriage? I wondered while I searched for possible escape routes as well as readying my voice to scream out for help if it happened to be Mathew. However, it was not Mathew, it was my selfish father in law, Logan Forger. "You look well, Heather. I didn't expect you to return to school

035: Consequences II

Alexander's POV I had been too occupied with Cynthia to notice that I had gotten a text from Heather early enough. By the time I had seen the message, two hours had passed and Heather had already informed me that she was at home. Without wasting any second, I had immediately driven to her place in order to make sure that she was doing alright. I promised myself to kill Logan Forger if as much as one strand of hair was missing on her head. I will never forgive him if he dared to harm Heather. Anxious and paranoid, I sped through the roads like a madman until I reached my destination. Without care for how my vehicle was parked, I jumped down and immediately raced into the house. Heather was in the kitchen when I entered the room, and from the look of things she seemed to be doing alright. "Are you okay? Did he hurt you?!" I asked while I raced to get a better assessment of her condition. "I'm fine, he didn't do anything to me." Heather replied, but I could tell she wasn't done. R

036: Business Card

Heather's POV The doorbell rang only a few minutes after Noah's departure. Eager and happy that he had chosen to stay home instead of confronting his father, I raced to the door, ready to throw myself in his arms the moment I opened the door. I glanced through the window while I hurried towards the door, and only then did I realize that Noah's car was still gone, and come to think of it, I never really heard the sound of his car coming back. The excitement that once enveloped me vanished and was immediately replaced with paranoia and anxiety in a split second. I've had neighbors come to say hi and welcome me to the neighborhood, but never this late. I was skeptical at first, but after some few minutes of thinking and speculation, I finally decided to open the door and find out who it was. My eyes widened expressively and I felt a sudden feeling of rage wash over me the moment I opened the door. I might not be able to remember everything and everyone I had met before, but there was

037: Warnings And Precautions

Alexander's POV The last thing I had expected to hear from Heather was Cynthia's name, or the fact that she had actually shown up at our doorstep. I had been careless and inattentive to the fact that she could have been following me. Safety precautions had slipped my mind the moment I received Heather's text. The only thing that had been on my mind back then was getting to her and making sure she was safe. Cynthia had exploited that moment, and had made good use of it. "She's... someone I'm working with on a contract." I replied after a minute of silence and confusion. However, Heather was not particularly satisfied or pleased by my answer. I could tell she recognized Cynthia from the restaurant, and there was the possibility that Cynthia had already said things that would suggest to Heather that our relationship wasn't just work related only. "Is that all? Because she didn't look or sound like a simple work colleague, Al!" Heather referring to me as 'Al' was all I needed to fi

038: An Alliance

Alexander's POV The news of Logan Forger's burnt warehouses was on the front page of every newspaper and magazine in the city. I hadn't really expected that my father would listen to my threats and risk having his entire business destroyed by Mathew, but apparently that had been the case. However, I knew it wasn't going to be long before he called me and demanded something else in return for this. The Logan Forger I knew was never going to let something like this slide. And as for Mathew, he had shown that he was capable of keeping his threats. He was clearly dangerous, and it had become obvious that he was going to be a tough shell to crack. He was beginning to make moves that might cause serious trouble for me in the long run. "Come back to bed, Al. Why do you have to leave so early?" Cynthia grumbled sleepily. I paid her no attention as I hurriedly put on my clothes. "I have matters that I have to attend to." I replied curtly, straightening my morning hair as well as searchi

039: Payback

Logan's POV It had become clear that Mathew wanted war, and there was no way in hell that I was going to back away from this fight. He had crossed a line, one that I simply couldn't ignore. I had done my best to keep things subtle between us simply of guilt and the fact that he was family. They had called it cowardice, but I didn't care, I didn't listen to what anybody said, I just wanted to keep my son and my company alive. But now that Mathew had directly threatened the two things I cared about the most, there was no way I was going to sit still and let it slide. I knew exactly where to hit Mathew hard, and I was not going to let this opportunity slide. His cartel was a large one, and Matthew Forger had a big reputation in the underground business world. His cartel was mostly responsible for the sale of transportation of goods in the black market, and I had inside info that they were transferring illegal merchandise into the city tonight. While I had no idea what the produc

040: A Promise

Mathew's POV "That son of a bitch!" I spat the moment announced the news to me. More than a dozen of my men had been arrested at last night's raid of the Black Box, and I had no doubt in my mind that this was Logan Forger's doing. This was payback for burning his warehouses. He clearly was no longer the coward he used to be, and that had clearly become a serious problem. "I'll kill him! I'll fucking kill that bastard!" I rampaged, throwing everything in sight and smashing anything that was too heavy to lift and launch at the wall. "He's playing with me! He's fucking playing with me." "Give me an order, I'll make sure he pays for this!" Viktor demanded calmly, though the rage he felt at that moment was difficult to conceal. He was shaking, seething with rage. His cousin had been one of the apprehended members, and this wasn't a raid done by the police. The fucking army were involved, the state military, it wasn't a case I could simply resolve with power. If anything, it was probab
