Alex saw the way Martin's lips curl in distaste at the way and he didn't bother to ask why. "So what do I do?" He inquired from the kidnapper. The kidnapper smacked his lips, he had Alex where he wanted him and was very happy that things were going in his direction. He adjusted his mask to cover his eyes and his mic so that no one would be able to guess that he was the one who was behind it. Meanwhile, Brielle watched her kidnapper grinning, it was obvious that Alex had agreed to the deal and she heaved a sigh of relief before being overcome with a deep sense of gratitude. Never would she have imagined that he would agree to such a crazy deal. At least, she knew that she wouldn't do it if reverse was the case hence her appreciation for what he did. "You will hand over the rights of the company to me. Then, will we talk about what next to do." "Great." Alex replied. Then a thought suddenly struck his mind. What if he was being pranked or lied to? There was no way that he was going

Grandma and all the members of the clan were present. He didn't even know that Brielle had so many family members. Alas, he was being schooled. He walked in gently. The former Alex would have been intimidated by the numerous eyes that threatened to swallow him but not him, he had been reinvented.He climbed the small stairs, "I can see that there's a family gathering." He spoke as he walked further. Grandma stared at the boy in front of her, she didn't understand why he was so proud. "Aren't you even going to greet us?" She inquired impishly.He stared at her with slightly raised brows and nodded, " My bad, good afternoon, grandma." He greeted.All the cousins and relatives stared at him. He was rude, they thought but he couldn't care less for their thought because it didn't bother him one bit."Are you going to greet only Grandma?" One of the women had the guts to demand and he stared at them with utmost contempt in his eyes. "Having people staring at you with judgment in their eye

"How did you allow these people to operate? It's unfair to the health of the workers don't you think? Don't tell me that you weren't aware of the state of this place because I sure won't believe that. You must have eaten here twice or thrice." The owner of the cafeteria came out of her office with a remorseful look but Alex wasn't having it. " Mrs...?" He raised a brow."Martha." "Mrs Martha I have a question for you and you will answer honestly. How long have you been cooking here?" He inquired and the woman's gaze flickered to Martins who didn't bother to look her way. He was in support of whatever judgment that was about to be passed on her because this wasn't the first strike. She had been warned severally with the promise that she would change and the emotional blackmail she put the old man through making him reconsider his decisions on firing her and that time he didn't want to sound like a bad person but now, she had finally met her match and he was here for all of it. He f

The next morning, Alex was already out of the house immediately and was on his way to the lawyers' office. The cab pulled over in front of a huge high-rise building with a large billboard carrying large lettering of the company name."M and Cole." He sighed, paid the cab man, and walked into the lobby. It was a wide room with double ACs hanging down the wall. It screamed class and pure professionalism and he started towards the receptionist desk. "Good morning, Mr. Alex. It's a pleasure to meet you. Barrister Williams is expecting you." Meyer the secretary told him the moment he reached the counter."Good morning, Mr. Meyer. That's correct, may I know the way to her office?" He replied and the man pointed towards the door. "Please take the right turn at that curve. You'll see the barrister's office."He gave him a curt nod and finally walked in the direction he was pointed at. He wasn't expecting to see the delectable woman before him. She was pretty young and he almost doubled i

It took all the restraint in Alex not to tell that man to fuck off and he knew that if he was pushed to the wall again he would actually do that.His door swung open and Martins walked in breathing heavily. His gaze was fixated on Alex who had a hard look on his face. He was late and he knew that was going to cause friction in their relationship because Alex had specifically instructed that no one came late. He didn't suffer defaulters."I'm sorry for arriving late. I woke up a bit late." Martins apologized.Alex's gaze traveled to his shoes and swept back to his face in thorough inspection. "So what do you say?" The kidnapper inquired, rolling his gun in front of Brielle who was shuddering at the blast of the wind. "You will also live by my conditions. You're not doing me any favor by maltreating her. What if I decide not to hand over what would you do?" He challenged. "You wouldn't dare do that. Do you want your beautiful wife to lose her life? I mean I knew that you were heartle
