“Stop! Don’t shoot! David is innocent and I can prove it…”***Everyone turned towards the voice and Alex blinked in surprise when he saw Camila. Amaya stood by her side and together, they walked into the room. Wait. How the hell had they gotten out of the bunker? The moment Amaya saw her husband, her eyes lit up with happiness and she flew into his arms.The capo caught her effortlessly and pressed her against his chest, breathing in the scent of her hair. From the way her shoulders shook, Alex could tell that she was crying.“There, there, baby.” The capo said soothingly, patting her back gently. “That’s okay. I’m here now. Nothing happened to me.”Whilst the capo was trying to comfort his sobbing wife, Camila was giving Miguel the stink eye. Amongst everyone in the room, only she and Alex knew about Miguel’s involvement in the attack. “Camila, what are you saying?” Miguel asked with a very fake, plastic smile. “This man sexually assaulted you, remember? You must be making a mis

It’s been a week since the dreadful attack on the Guerrero mansion.Miguel was sent to the dungeon as his punishment was yet to be determined and Alex was set to resume working at the head office the very next week. Camilla had not returned from her vacation and Alex was slowly realising that he missed her madly. He missed her too much.Lately, he’d been harboring the urge to tell her the truth before he actually revealed it to the rest. That was just how much he loved her.Now that Miguel was in custody, nothing extraordinary had happened. The video clip which proved that he’d framed Eden’s father was finally uncovered. The mafia apologised to him and offered him his job back but after being caned, Eden’s father turned down their proposal. He was however settled to the tune of five million dollars. Diego was released and after a heartfelt apology, he took over Miguel’s position as the head housekeeper. Miguel’s wife was supposed to be with him in the dungeon but she was only plac

“Who are you and what the hell are you doing here?”Alex froze. For the next three seconds, he remained completely still, hoping that the boss was talking to someone else. Almost a minute later, when he didn’t reply, the owner of the designer shoes took another step towards him. “Didn’t you hear me? I’m talking to you.”He finally came to terms with the fact that he was busted. He lifted his head slowly and came face-to- face with one of his twin uncles. His eyes drifted to the brass name tag which was pinned to the man’s suit. It read; “Gustavo Alexander, CEO, Alexander Group.”Oh. So this was Gustavo. The first twin.Not knowing what else to do, he bowed slightly. “Hello, sir. My name is David Wyatt. I’m the new head cleaner. I’ve only resumed my duties today.”His heart was thundering like a runaway train as Gustavo stared at him with disgust in his eyes.“You’re a cleaner?” He spat.Alex gritted his teeth and nodded.“Yes, sir.”The silence that followed his reply was loud. Too

After destroying the phone like Tariq had advised, Alex woke up with the sun and set about discarding the pieces in different dumpsters in the city.Two hours later, he returned to his apartment to prepare for work.He’d originally intended to give it a day or two before he tried to crack open the safe, but yesterday’s events made him realize that time might not be on his side. If he really had a stalker, he had to get his job done before the stalker decided to become bolder.Thirty minutes later, a sleek, black, tinted car arrived to pick him up. Alex got into the backseat beside Tariq.Tariq took one look at his dark circles and muttered; “Bad night?”Alex sighed deeply.“Let’s just say I wasn’t able to sleep a wink.”“Did you do what I asked?”“Yes. The phone is in different parts of Madrid as we speak.”Tariq nodded.“Good. Good.” After a moment of silence, he asked again; “did you read the journal?”Alex shook his head. “Nope. I still haven’t found the courage to go beyond star

Alex was annoyed, but he tried hard not to let it show.He backed away from Camila and walked towards the door with slow, measured steps. However, instead of leaving like she’d asked, he paused, closed the door… and locked it.Camila’s heart raced violently when he turned around to face her. His blue eyes were dark and smouldering, and the throbbing vein on his forehead was an indication that he was not happy. At all. “What are you doing?” She stuttered, trying to appear bold. “I asked you to get out. Why did you lock the door?”Alex did not respond. Instead, he took one step towards her and she barely stopped herself from taking one back.She had to show him that she wasn’t intimidated or scared of him. “What happened to you, Camila? Why are you acting like this?” He growled.Camila gritted her teeth and lifted her chin.“How exactly am I acting?”“You know what I’m talking about. Don’t make me ask you again.” Camila swallowed thickly. His tone was dark and dangerous. A clear indi
