"You know what?" Alex said and puts his hand over her shoulder. "Babe I did not even notice that it was you." Alex said softly to the girl. "Oh that's a relief. For a while there I thought if your memory had been wiped clean." The girl said chuckling"That would have just been terrible, right?" "Will you get your disgusting hands off her?" The boy said in anger as he tried to push Alex hand off the girl's shoulder but Alex had a tight grip and he wasn't letting go. "This is nothing but madness, Camille. Are you trying to tell me that you are actually dating this riff raff?" "Hey you watch your tone. My man is not a riff Raff..he is twice the man you will ever be and I will not allow you to insult him anymore." Camille said. "Oh I will insult him all I want because this is madness. You are wicked young woman. Cruel even. You know very well that your father designed you for me. You know that my family has invested so much in yours and the price was that you will have to get married

"Dad!" Bobby said as he came running into the room. He heard the sound of a glass cup shattering and knew that the old man was drinking again. The little incident with Alex had ruined his life and he was slowly becoming a shadow of himself. "Dad, what's wrong?" The boy said as he approached his father. The man stood heavily on the ground, heaving in anger. Bobby had seen him like that several times. It was his rage that drove his mother out of the house and yet, his father never wanted to attend any anger management class. According to him, nothing was wrong with him and the people that really needed help were the ones that kept getting on his nerves."Dad, what's wrong?" He asked again when he got no response from him "You see that little twit that parades himself like a boss around town, influencing the decision of every business owner in this state?" He then turned and looked at him. "I want him dead." He said staring at his son."Dad, what happened?" Bobby knew that his father w

Alex stares at the warehouse, dumbfounded about what could really be happening. He was startled back to reality by a soft touch on his back. "Everything is gone?" He heard Damien voice behind him. "Now do you believe that someone did this?" Alex asks him and walks away, back to his car. He sits in the car waiting for Damien and watches as Damien tries to explain what he does not understand to the media. He could feel his blood boiling. Millions of dollars were wasted and the one that caused it was properly in their palour, sipping on a good cocktail and having a blast. "Is there any cause to worry?" He asked Damien as soon as the man got back to the car "Nope. None at all. They just asked the normal obvious questions and I gave them the normal obvious answers.""Good. Driver, let's go to the office." Alex said and sat back to think and collect his thoughts. As soon as he enters the company, he moves straight to his office and pours brandy to two glasses. He passes one down to Da

"I don't need a personal bodyguard Damien," Alex argued. He knew what having a personal bodyguard entails. He would be forced to constantly work around with the guy and the was no way he was going to do that without people suspecting him for being more than just a lottery ticket winner."How can you can say that? Do you not understand the things happening in your life. You are being attacked from all angles. I will not just sit back and do nothing when I know for a fact that this is not normal. It's not normal Alex. We need to ensure that you are properly armed before something that I cannot comprehend happens to you. Your grandfather will be so upset with me if anything should happen to you." "Damien, I don't care. We are not getting a personal bodyguard for me and that is final." He said and ended the call. "We are here sir," his driver said as he pulled up into the driveway of a club that Alex could not recongize. he was not the type that loved going out but still, he knew some o

"Are you daft? Why are you still standing there like that? I said you should get me your manager!" The man yelled. Since you have the audacity to actually talk to me in this manner and since you are refusing to do your job, then I have no other option but to ensure that you get fired. You are really going to pay for this." The man said, while crossing his legs. Alex could feel Aurora shaking beside him. He did not know why she was though. From where he was standing, he could not see anything wrong in what she did. But with the way she was shaking, he could not help but wonder if she really got a job as a stripper or a hooker and just decided that she was not going to do that anymore. "Girl are you dumb?!" The guy yelled and Aurora jumped in his skin. "I said you should get me your manager." "Don't shout at her like that. It's not right to shout at a lady that way." "Young man, if I were you, I would really mind my business. Now little girl, go and get what I asked for." He asked a
