Alex's sixth sense quickly activated.He impulsively gripped the neck of the driver tightly and wanted to ask, "Who are you?"But the driver attacked him by spraying a certain fluid over his eyes."Fuck!" He exclaimed, rubbing his eyes with his hands. He couldn't even see anything properly anymore. Wait, was he... Passing out?In a few seconds, everything turned black.*** Alex found himself in a vacant room after regaining consciousness.His head throbbed with pain as he struggled to open his eyes and focus. He soon realized that he was tied to a wooden chair. Holy fuck, what's the problem now?! Who's after him???Despite his efforts to loosen the ropes, he remained firmly secured. The surroundings were dimly lit, resembling a basement filled with dirt and grime."The dick is awake," one of the goons spoke. He looked scary with tattoos and the gun he was holding. He appeared to be a well-trained fighter, with bulging muscles.He approached Alex, disdain clearly visible on his face.
In a moment of impulse, Alex quickly his himself behind the door. Whatever he was feeling, he won't back down.As the goon tries to open the door, Alex took action by banging the door harshly against his hands. "Arghhh!" The sudden force made the person to groan and stumble.Seeing this, Alex took advantage and snatched his gun from his hand, using it to hit his head twice, making him unconscious.Finally, one man down!Then he left the room and went outside; on his way, the strength he used to take him down began to backfire. He stumbled and fell down, but then got up as he tiptoed to see where the gunshots were coming from. To his surprise, it was Edmundo's bodyguards - he knew they were going to be there because of Sage, his main bodyguard who he had taken around.He was so glad they were there, but how was he going to escape through here if they were not going to see him? He thought of an idea as he was about to use it, but he was suddenly surrounded by three men with the maske
When they finally reached the hospital - the same one where they had taken Barney - Amos dropped them off as he quickly took Alex off the car and put him onto a stretcher. After they were done stitching him up and giving him lots of treatment, Alex couldn't feed himself. Harley collected the meal from his hand as she began to feed him. He was sitting on the bed, receiving an IV drip with Harley at his left side.He kept staring at her face, which looked so innocent on the surface. One would think she couldn't hurt a fly! He was just fully amazed at how strong she was beneath that innocent appearance.She dropped the plate, then cleaned his lips with a napkin to dab away what was left on them. Alex yanked her hands away immediately; his heart began to beat heavily and he looked away, but she mistook it for something else. "Look, I don't want you to see me as a bad person or like a thug - just know that I saved your life," she assured him. As he turned to her, instead of asking
As she requested the answer, she stared deep into his eyes.Alex had to sigh, almost dumbfounded."Don't think like that, I did all that because of security, Harley. Please don't get me wrong - you're a nice person and I've never seen you as a whore," Alex explained to her as she turned her face in another direction, not smiling. She was still thinking over whether to accept the fact that he lied to her. She also thought that he may have had other reasons for doing that, so she sighed."That's not what's important now. Just recover, and maybe keep a low profile - I think that's best," she said. Alex nodded and smiled. After treatment, by then she wasn't there anymore. Alex wore his dress, wanting to go see if Barney was awake.After he was done, Alex went straight to Barney's room. However, on the way, he stumbled into someone, and the papers in his hand fell to the ground. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" the man said angrily. Alex apologized."Oops, my bad." He bent down to
the person might manipulated it??after dropping barney off at his villa, with arranged security men, alex then zoomed off to his home, thinking of any clues that may come to mind.when he reached his room, he took out his laptop and opened his company's documents to find anything suspicious. that same day, the number of people employed was just one hundred, and in the sales department there were twenty employees, the accounting department had ten employees, and the rest were cleaners and intern staff.he hadn't found anything suspicious yet, but he didn't feel comfortable. he thought about it and then came to the conclusion that he wasn't going to confront that person.he heard a knock as the door opened, and then rockson came in and handed him a big tablet showing him something on the screen. "what barney said is right, his name is lorenzo,""oh, is he the head of the accounting department?""exactly. i also found some minor information about him - he employed over a hundred people
"Sir, what's going on?" Joyce asked as she noticed he wasn't bringing out his credit card for payment. Her brows knotted and she frowned."Are you that daft? Can't you see he can't afford to buy the watch??" Wick mocked. "It seems you don't have anything reasonable to do than waste your time talking to Alex the Loser." Alex rolled his eyes and ignored Wick. She couldn't stop and wait for him as she had other customers to attend to, so she left them to work.Without hesitation, Alex thought of something to remove the shame. He brought out his phone and called Rockson. "Bring my credit card to Zome Jewelry shop, and don't waste my time," he said curtly and hung up.He caught Wick throwing disparaging glances at him, looking at Alex the same demeaning way he did when bullying Alex at SALMAS company.He couldn't help but run his mind back to how they all treated him in the company, seeing him as someone bound to be an errand boy. But he made a promise to himself that would never happ
"I was passing by and decided to stop and take a drink and that is how I met you here,"She did a quick survey of his outlook. "And what are you doing here? You look like you're in disguise," she asked.Alex thought whether to tell her about it or not. But then he noticed he was running out of time and had to catch up with the person before he succeed in taking or doing what he was sent to do. "Don't worry I'll be back. Help me watch over my laptop first," he said and stood up immediately, ensuring she had no time to ask the same question.This was the only chance he could use to catch the spy, so he better not mess it up or make it look suspicious. After that, Alex entered the building through the back by jumping the fence where the was no lights shone on that side.He slowly went inside, putting his black mask on, then he started climbing the stairs that led to the accounting department.As he successfully reached the department office, he slowly tiptoed inside, bringing out his g
"So, Father called you here?" He asked, still wearing a weird look.Since Alex did not want to stretch the argument by giving a response, he nodded his head and extended his left hand in a bid to tell him to allow him to pass without any hindrance. However, Daniel sneered but still moved aside to make way. Alex settled on the plush cushion, admiring at the exquisite decor of the house. He even noticed there was a magnificent silver bird sculpture positioned to the right of the TV.'Wow. No wonder Vivian couldn't resist getting together with him, I mean someone like her won't right?' he thought.Anyways, where's the man who invited him around? He checked around to see if he was coming out of wherever he was but no sign of him.He picked him phone to call him but he wasn't answering. He decided to wait a little, considering the fact that he was his dad. Suddenly, Daniel brought a wine and two glass cups and placed it on top of the table. He opened it and poured out a drink for Alex.A
