After he got home, Alex went straight to the wine rack and poured himself a glass of whisky before going over to his balcony. The thoughts of his fight with Clarrisa was still lingering on his mind but he didn’t want to care, she was the one who felt insecure about things her father did and he was not even supposed to feel bad in the first place, she was not worth it.The sky was filled with so much stars and his lips unknowingly curled into a smile when he realized that his two sisters loved to seat on this same balcony to enjoy the night sky. How their chatters and giggles would filter into his ears but right now, he had no one by his side. All the people around him was by his side because of Alex and by the time he was done, they were no longer going to be my his side and that’s the biggest reality of all.His thoughts were interrupted when the phone inside his pocket began to buzz and he picked it up without bothering to look at the caller ID.“Hello”“Boss” Bruno’s voice filtered
Gerald was still seated in his study going through some documents, after having a squabble with his kids he didn’t feel like doing anything in particular but ti thought of Bianca still walking the face of the earth annoyed him. Now he was no longer worried about Clarrisa or Dylan finding out but about that woman going to tell on him. The fact that she has not said anything for the past weeks made it even more disturbing, she was planning something and he was sure of it.“Dad” someone called from the door and he turned to see Dylan by the door.“I thought you were already asleep, come on in” Gerald beckoned and his son made his way into the room before lowering himself on one of the chairs.“Why are you still awake though?” Gerald asked again.“Nothing” Dylan responded as his eyes traveled to the wall clock, “I don’t think Risa may come home tonight”“Are you here about her or because you are still not clear on what we discussed?” Gerald inquired, he knew his kids more than they could
Clarrisa was surprised to see Alex in the shower with her, not in a million years would she ever think that Alex would do something like this. It was overwhelming for her and the look on her face said it all.“Alex?” She wanted to be sure he was the one, she wanted to make sure he was in the right state of mind or something because this was bizarre yet intriguing “Shocked?” He asked with a sly smile on his face, “why do you look like you just saw a ghost?”“I…I….” Her voice trailed off when he snaked his hand around her naked body.“I just want to have a shower with you, what’s wrong with that?” This time, his finger was trailing the outline of her body and Clarrisa was loving the feeling of it, the way he gently touched her body made her heart leap for joy the most.Without saying anything, Alex yanked her closer and captured her lips while his hands worked magic on her body, the way she reacted in his embrace made the smile on his lips intensify.The kiss was slow and intense at fi
“Good morning boss” Bruno greeted as Alex sauntered into the office, his white suit stood out impeccably on his body and the ladies around him couldn’t help but ogle at this creature, he was just like a fantasy.“Have everyone in the conference room by nine” Alex ordered as he sauntered into his own office, “until then don’t disturb me”“Yes boss”The moment Alex entered his office, he threw his laptop open and began to work. It was just a few days to his wedding and he needed to finish every necessary thing he needed before that day. It was not like he was looking forward to it but he had to be prepared at least, Alexander chase was a name that everyone in the country and beyond knew.An email popped up on his computer and he immediately went through it which made his lips curl into a smile. So this was what Gerald was planning? He was more of a scornful man than he thought.Picking up his intercom, he immediately put a call across to Bruno who came rushing into the office immediatel
The car immediately drove towards the alrafia tower immediately after Alex landed in the Arab Emirates. He didn’t want to waste a single second and luckily the road was not too crowded. His car came to a halt in front of the big conglomerate and he alighted alongside Bruno. The building was so big and the extravagance was top notch. People were going in and out of the building and no one seemed to have noticed them. This was the biggest automobile conglomerate in the whole of the Arab Emirates and securing a partnership with the owner was one big of a deal, even Gerald would not want to miss it.“This place is really beautiful” Bruno snickered and alex shot him a deadly glance before making his way to the reception.“Good morning” he greeted the receptionist who returned his greeting with a smile.“Welcome to Alrafia sir, how may we help you?” her thick accent hung in the air but at least she was polite and well dressed. Not like those American kids that would not keep their belly in
Alex was taken aback for a split second, Amira was not an ordinary woman and he was beginning to see it. The smirk on her face said it all, she came prepared but she also underestimated him. A wounded man would do anything to get his revenge and that was what Alex had planned, anything that belonged to Gerald, he planned to snatch it from him.Amira dropped her MacBook on the glass table and turned her full attention to him, the smirk on her face was still lingering. It was like she could see right through his facade.“For a man of your caliber, I don’t think you would stoop so low to use such cheap methods to meet my father, tell me. What exactly is your plan? Until a few hours ago, Mr Gerald was showing up on the appointment list because I made that list myself and suddenly, you are hers? Tell me something better mr chase”“You are very particular, I see. A keen one”Amira scoffed lightly, “you already have the deal so let me in on your game, Gerald will be here soon and we have to
Gerald just sauntered into his office when his assistant walked over to him with an envelope in hand and a grim look on his face. He looked like the whole world was on his shoulders and when Gerald saw him, he had to crease his forehead into a frown and stop walking.“Why do you look so dead?”“Sir, this was sent to the company’s official email address and I had to bring it out for you” he stretched out his hand and Gerald collected the envelope from him.“What is it about?”His assistant hesitated for a while, he didn’t know if he was allowed to spill the beans. The information inside the envelope was sure to shatter the big boss,“I think it will be best if you read it sir”After talking, he gave a slight bow and hastily made his way out of the office, anticipating Gerald’s reaction to the mail.After watching him walk out of the office, the old man lowered himself on his reclining chair before tearing the envelope open.“Mr Gerald, CEO of Gerald automobile. It is with deep regre
The time was past seven when Amira sauntered into the restaurant alongside her dad and the two of them were so engrossed in the conversation that they didn’t notice the waiter who was standing by the door alongside the manager, it was until he called their attention that the two of them turned to him.“Welcome to royal oak, Mr and miss Omar” he said with a bright smile on his lips, “your private room is on the third floor sir” he added.“Very well then” Amira replied, “take us”“Being a businessman is not an easy job brother” Omar added, “we almost didn’t see you there”“Allah never forsakes the hardworking '' the manager replied and the two of them burst into a conversation while walking towards the elevator.He led them towards the elevator and in no time, they were both In the room while Alexander stood up to greet them.“I wasn’t expecting you, Mr Omar” he said as he extended his hand for a shake.“Amira will not let me hear the last of it, i had to come because of her”“Thank you
