they both went to the nearby restaurant, as they ordered the meal they wanted with a bottle of wine. they were sitting opposite each other as alex sipped his wine and looked at matt who was staring at him. "truly it's been a year we've seen each other, we both have changed, i came back home and found bernardino on my doorstep pleading with me, i forgave him and also made almost everyone in the company begged me accept being the manager and that is how i became this rich alex'' he paused and sipped his wine then continued. " what about you? how did you become rich?" he asked, narrowing his eyebrows, alex shifted his gaze from his side. alex was contemplating on what he was going to say, so he had no choice than to spill it out. "i'm the ceo of fartheststone enterprise, through the help of someone" alex goes on telling him everything that happened during his mother's death and how he was damn betrayed by vivian, how that gave him the confidence to go ask him for help. without edmun
Alex gave this a thought, as to why it never came to his mind about any hiding basement inside the mansion.He couldn't help but nod his head agreeing to what she pointed out, so now they have to go check it out. But he wasn't going there alone, he picked his phone and texted Zack and sent the location, he waited for his reply after he got the reply, "Ok Boss" he quickly left the office, hastily to his car but stopped as he noticed she was following him."Just stay back, this guy is dangerous and can kill a soul without remorse" "I remembered saving your ass from him, so let's move it" She rolled her eyes and walked towards the car door and entered inside, waiting for him to enter but caught him staring at her.Alex scoffed and entered the car then drove hastily to the location, he just hoped he did catch him this time. "Did this Edmundo make you who you are today?" She asked an unexpected question as he raised his eyebrows, then stopped at a corner, making sure it was a bit far fr
He grinned and began walking towards her as she frowned her face, she didn't even flinch nor move backwards as he stood in front of her and placed his hands on her shoulders, she clenched her fists tightly. Alex also wasn't having it, he didn't like the fact that he was touching her, he also frowned. "Get your hands off her Richard, it's me you have beef with""including your loved ones" he blurted, turning his gaze at him then returning it back to Harley who immediately yanked his hands off her shoulders, he got mad and slapped her then dragged her hair closer to him. "You see, she was my next target, after I stabbed Barney, you see, she would have been dead by now, had it been she drank the coffee in your office or walked alone out but you brought her here yourself" he began to laugh, drawing her hair backwards as she groaned trying to struggle herself out of his grip as he pushed her down, she slide and hit her head on the wall then he brought out a gun and pointed it at her. Al
Alex sighed a relief because his eyes were closed when he commanded them to shoot, he opened his eyes and saw them dead. Looking at Richard who was still laughing when he turned to see him smiling his jaw dropped and saw his men with their blood spilled on the floor. "How is this possible?!" He yelled loudly as his eyes reddened and shifted his gaze to where the gunshots came from then saw about ten black suited men putting on black glasses holding an AK 47. Alex was stunned to see Amos, and his men; he couldn't help but wonder how he knew about this place because they were so deep in the woods. Someone began to lose Alex robe tied round his hands and his body, it was Rockson. "Boss, I'm so sorry I arrived late""Don't be you came at the right time" Alex also helped in the losing, when he was done with his, he ran to Harley and helped her to lose then he hugged as he was so worried. "It's my fault, I shouldn't have allowed you to go with me" She smiled and withdrew from him then
Alex stood up from where he was sitting and took his cup of coffee in his hands then stood beside her observing the stunning view of the city."Seeing the city from here is quite beautiful"It's dark already so all the lights from the buildings and street lamps are shining brightly, creating a beautiful glow all around. It was a clear night, as the stars scattered across the dark sky, twinkling and creating a magical view. The moon also was visible, giving a soft and gentle light over the surroundings.Alex took a deep breathe. "Wow, it's winter already" he could see his breath in the cold air as Harley nodded in agreement. "I never expected this to happen," Alex admitted about the incident that happened. "I had suspicions about Daniel right from the start, but then things got complicated when I began suspecting Matt, my best friend." He took another sip of his coffee, gathering his thoughts before continuing."Things got really ugly, to the point where it led to Edmundo's son," A
Alex just couldn't imagine how it happened, so that means Duubua employed the fifty plus staffs including his men at the accounting department to embezzle his money and steal financial statements so they can manipulate it and increase it up. His fury and the shock grew with each passing moment, struggling to understand how such a large-scale operation could have taken place right under his nose, without an evidence Alex will not have believed it.Alex stormed out of his office and made his way towards the accounting department. As he reached the area, he took a deep breathe because right now he was going to interrogate them.Since the rest where not around the other ones around would answer the questions but unfortunately the department was empty, it was as if the employees he had seen earlier had vanished into thin air. "What??" Alex exclaimed.He became confused as he scanned the area, his eyes darting from one desk to another. The absence of any staff, including those he remembe
As Alex took a sip of his wine, he choked. His heart sank at the name he heard Matt say, or was he hallucinating?"Harley McCall? Vivian's step-sister?" Alex exclaimed, his eyes widening. He didn't want it to be the same Harley he knew. "Yes, you see, we never had time to become close in high school. I also never knew she was in this city after our high school. But when she came to SALMAS representing McCall Group to invite me for the Group's anniversary, that's when we talked" He took a deep breathe and continued. " She told me she has been here for a long time, but she won a scholarship to study abroad for college," Matt explained, still smiling at the pictures on his phone as he scrolled for more gowns.Alex couldn't help but feel a little sad that she was his crush and he hasn't gotten over her. He wondered why he felt that way. It wasn't because she was his girlfriend or that he liked her. Maybe it was just because he cared for her. But why wasn't his heart complying with what
Alex yelled causing her to fluster, grabbing her hair then removing his hands as he stood up and went inside. She couldn't help but was so shocked that he was one of the richest people in the.city that owns the most top rated companies - FarthestStone Enterprise.Her eyes were still kept wide open, due from the shock, she thought how Vivian wouldn't notice it since she had been seeing him. She also felt embarrassed as she was slapped and thrown out of the hotel, right in front of the staff that respected her because she was the secretary. Alex was overwhelmed that Mrz Lora was still waiting for him, when he came in she bowed her head then led the way towards her office. "So sir how can we help you?" "I want to plan a surprise birthday for my bestfriend and she a lady I need y'all to work on the arrangements for me" Alex muttered as she nodded her head and brought out a booklet. In the booklet it shows a variety of birthday surprises, decorations and lots more, but Alex shook hi
