Alex's pov:I was in my room, relaxing on the bed, when I heard a knock on my door.“Come in.” I said , Diana,my mother, opened the door and walked in.She had a tray of tea in her hand ,she walked towards me and set the tray down on the nightstand beside me.“I made tea, do you like tea?” She inquired curiously.“Well even if I don't like it, I should at least take a sip since you made it for me.” I took the tea cup and took a sip.“Can I sit?” She asked as she gestured to my bed.“Yes.” I replied and she took her tea cup and sat with me on the bed.“So what type of position do you want in the company?” Diana asked.“I don't mind anything ,as long as I get to work and get my own money.” I replied because honestly I am not entitled.“You know that even though you don't work in my company, I will give you money. That's why I came here ,I brought your bank card to you.” Diana informed me.“Bank card?” I asked in surprise.“Yes, it contains money that you can use for your expenses.” She t

Alex's pov:My mother, Ceo your Diana called the board of directors to a meeting and they attended and in the conference she announced that I was her son.I was sitting next to her and she was glancing at me from time to time to smile and reassure me all was well and I appreciated it.“In the future he will be the next CEO of the company so I hope that everybody will work well with him.” She announced. There were exchanged looks of confusion and her stepson who was beside her was glaring daggers at me and whenever Ceo Diana my mother would look his way he would force a smile.Philip, my mother's stepson, is trying so hard to prove that he's not angered by what she said, but in fact he was so angry that he was trying his best to pretend , so as to continue being in her good book.“Ceo Diana I hope that what I will say will not offend you ,but he just came to the company and he started working a few weeks, ago you should not just announced that he will be the next CEO where we haven't

Alex pov:I watched her leave and I felt like strangling this woman but I just clenched my fists.I shouldn't do anything silly now that I am in the public eye. I need to be mindful of my actions.Riley really spoiled my mood in the event so after she had left ,I had to leave early because I did not want to snap at anybody.I thought that was the end of it and I won't be seeing it again but after a week I received a letter from a lawyer stating that Riley wants to meet up with me and talk, because she is pregnant with my child and I was surprised when I opened the letter and saw its content.Since I could not ignore this ,because I did not want any news flying around that was not true ,I called my lawyer and we met up at the place that the lawyer suggested.I don't know if Riley was trying to be ridiculous, but I noticed that her stomach had a little bump on it, this wasn't how i saw her at the event she has a flat tummy, it made me wonder if she put something on it or if she overeat

.Alex povJust as my mother said as I was trying to recover the project files it was impossible, so when I was heading back home I heard murmuring behind me.“Did you hear that he was supposed to work on a project and he left it and went party and now he's saying that the project was deleted from his work computer as if someone can do that without him knowing.”one employee said and she was right behind me so I could hear her clearly.“Such a useless man and they say that he's going to be our next CEO. I might as well start looking for a job before that happens.”The other said.I cannot take the insult so I turned around and looked at the two ladies that were insulting me.“You know that people always insult people that are better than them, what are your names?”I asked with an arched eyebrow.“Why are you asking about our names?”one asked on guard.“Because both of you are fired for insulting the higher official ,did you not hear what they told me?”I asked the bodyguard beside me.“

Alex's pov. Since my mother's step son wanted to play dirty then I would tell him that I was not someone who he should mess with. After successfully completing the project I was working on I began looking for clues on what he was doing and looking for a way to get rid of him, because I did not want him here anymore and then I found something there was a project that he was working on and money was removed from the company account and it was not accounted for.I am not sure if he was the one that took the money, but it was his team that was working on the project so I decided that I was going to use this and I took the file and gave it to my mother.“Why was I not aware that 6 months ago 1 billion dollars was taken away from the company account and was not accounted for?”Diana, my mother asked.“Well it was your stepson that did it ,so they might have overlooked it because it was him or there must have been some miscalculations but I did some checks on this money and it was not accou
