Like the twinkling of the eyes, it was two days already, the day of the banquet. Although Alex had promised to go to the banquet, he was still lazy about it. Still, he prepared for it, dressing in a black sleeve, black trousers, and black shoes. He wore his 24,000-dollar Rolex watch and picked up his car keys before heading to his car. Alex, putting the radio on, nodded his head to the beat of the music as he made his way to the address on the invitation card. He had gotten a few messages from Isaac reminding him that the banquet was today, and still got a call this evening asking if he would still be attending it. He assured the man that he was there.He stepped down from the car before handing the car key over to the Valet who proceeded to help him park his car. Alex fixed his cufflinks properly before making his way to the Edward family villa where the banquet was being held. The cool evening breeze caressed his face and a small smile appeared on his lips. Alex walked majesticall

Seeing who it was that had yelled from behind, the guards quickly stopped their actions and when the man got to them, they bowed their head in obeisance.“Sir!” The man who had just showed up was Isaac, he ignored them and rushed to face his young master, Alex, before giving him a deep bow,“Young master,” Alex nodded with a smirk when the saw the look of shock on the guard’s face.“I’m very sorry for showing up late sir. There was an issue at the company that needed my attention. Sir, you see the—“ Isaac was cut off by Alex who waved his hand in front of him “It’s okay,”“Young master, why aren’t you in yet? Did they give you a hard time?” it was obvious so Alex didn’t need to say a thing. The guards gulped when they saw the anger in Isaac’s eyes.Isaac glared at them for causing a hard time for his young master and the guards cower in fear. They knew Isaac very well but weren’t familiar with Alex. It was a shock to them that Isaac had bowed to Alex and not the other way around.

“So what are you?” A lackey?” “Hey! Hold your mouth there. We are not in the streets where you can speak as you like, this is the Edwards family house You dare not spit nonsense here,” “A lackey it is,” Alex nodded his head as he said these words causing the man's anger to skyrocket. The man wanted to speak but Alex intruded,“What's the name again…? Huh… Damn it! Can't seem to remember. Anyways, I always seem to forget unless things,” Isaac pressed his lips together to stop himself from bursting into laughter. Thomas gritted his teeth in anger. He had seen Alex when he was having issues with Jean and her partner and he was excited that he didn't have to deal with him, but it looked like he'll have to handle the man by himself. Meanwhile, Alex had returned his attention to his food as he began to eat again. The people around began to whisper amongst themselves. They could help but feel anger inside them as they saw how Alex was eating free food in a party he didn't bring any gif

“I told you he came here just for food,” Thomas said to the head of the Edward family. The old man was fuming in anger as he continued to look at Alex whose eyes weren't even on him. His eyes were on Kenneth and Thomas, he had asked them a question after all. “Young man, just apologize and let this go. You don't want to mess with the wrong family,” one of the guests said but Alex shrugged as he got up from his chair, “I don't see why I should apologize. I haven't offended anyone. All I came to do was eat but they came here and took my food and my drink. It wasn't fare at all, so they are at fault, why should I apologize?” He asked with arched brows. The old man flew in a rage,“You sick boy, do you know that I can throw you in jail for this? You… you…” “That's enough. I am not going to apologize on any basis you drop at me. I won't apologize for no reason,” he straightened his shirt before saying to Isaac,“Let's get out of here. Seems we have overstayed our welcome,” Isaac stoo

Alex suddenly raised his brows like he had just realized something. He turned back to the man, looking at him with contempt and then chuckled.“Why would I even do that?” Alex asked, still raising his brows. His sudden question shocked the man. He looked surprised to see someone question his command.“Beca—-”“I don’t need your flirty reason and besides this old hag here should be blamed for whatever happened between us. It had nothing to do with me” he replied and proceeded to walk out when the young man yelled.“Don’t you dare! You would kowtow to my woman this instinct with no further argument” he yelled. Alex sighed and turned back to the man.“You keep saying impossible things and I’m starting to think you might just be looking for trouble or someone to upset and I would say you have picked the wrong guy cause I don’t have time to entertain your nuisance and drama. Take your…..baby and fuck off!” Alex replied and this time he sounded more serious than ever. He looked tired and ju
