“He’s going to leave without telling me or saying goodbye? How rude” Blessing said, pouted, and then continued focusing on her exam. Alexander drove to the gate where the gatekeeper, who was excited to see him after their last interaction, opened the gate for him, bid him an energetic goodbye, and drove away. He returned to The Sam’s Hotel where he gave one of the valets the car key to go park the car like normal then he waited for the employee to return with the key before going into the hotel. “Good afternoon Tessa” Alexander greeted when he got close to the reception.“Good afternoon Mr. Alexander” Tessa greeted back.“I imagine you had an eventful outing,” she said.Alexander smirked.“Very eventful indeed. Anyway, what about that stuff I told you about?” He asked.“As you said, the packages were delivered within the timeline you gave”“Good to hear. I had it under good authority that I would be getting the packages without any delay but it’s nice to see that it played out the
Once Alexander got into his room, the first thing he did was to check the things he ordered. He first assessed the suit case, seeing just how big it was and that it could contain all the things he had bought.Next he checked all the clothes and from sight alone he could tell that Laura had done a good job and all of them were his perfect measurement. Since he had done everything he wanted to do in the city and had no reason to stay anymore plus his stay in the Sam’s Hotel ends when the next morning comes around, Alexander decided to arrange all his clothes inside the suitcase instead of the wardrobe.The only things he left outside the suitcase was one of the new suits he bought, his second pair of leather shoes, underwear for the night, casual clothes for the night and another he would wear when leaving the hotel in the morning. With everything where they should be, Alexander went into the shower to freshen up then he changed into his casual outfit.Next, he carried the backpack t
A couple of hours passed and Alexander, with his very sensitive ears began to hear the found of music and enjoyment flooding his entire room.He lowered the volume of what he was watching on the television and tried to listen more to make sure it wasn’t his imagination.He groaned.“I guess they’ve started. What time is it anyway?” He asked and then checked the time on his phone.“Fifteen minutes after four o’clock, huh? So this is when they normally do wedding parties” Alexander commented.Growing up as a servant boy, he had never had the privilege of attending a wedding before he he didn’t know when they normally did it.He thought it was going to be earlier in the day but that time didn’t seem that bad either.“I wonder how long it’s going to be for. Can’t go to someone’s wedding party the moment it starts even if I was invited as a guest of the hotel” he said to himself.After some thought, he decided to wait at least another hour before he goes anywhere.A couple of minutes later
“Here you go” the bouncer returned the keycard to its rightful owner. “Thank you” Alexander replied as he kept the keycard in his pocket. He looked at the bouncer who had blocked his path when he first arrived and saw that the man was ashamed about what he did. “If you’ll excuse me,” Alexander said then walked through the group of bouncers, heading for the entrance of the hall, and finally walked in. “Woah” Alexander commented when he saw how beautiful and well decorated the place was. The sight alone let him know that whoever was getting married had put a considerable amount of money into the event which could only mean that they were insanely rich. Just renting the Sam’s Hotel hall was five hundred thousand dollars then the decorations plus the workmanship for the interior designer had to have been somewhere between three hundred and fifty thousand to four hundred thousand dollars. However, all that is chump change for Alexander who was rearing his way into billionaire stat
Once things with the system were ready, Alexander focused on the two ladies.“It’s strange you had something like that on you when coming to a wedding but I guess it was for the best because it’s coming in handy now,” Grave said, sighing in relief.She knew she couldn’t walk long distances or else risk the heel giving out, so she either had to stand still and wait for Alexander to go get the glue and return with it or she’d have to take off her shoe and walk barefoot which would be embarrassing.“So, where is the glue?” Laurel asked, just like Grace thiking that the gorilla glue was on Alexander.“It’s in my room. I’ll just go get it and return quickly.” Alexander said, disappointing both ladies who then thought that that made more sense.He was about to leave but then Laurel interrupted.“I think I should go with you,” she said and Alexander looked at her with a face that asked her why she wanted to do that.She looked at Grace for support and her friend too had the same expression a
“How long do you think your friend is going to take before he returns?” Laurel asked Grace who blushed bashfully.“He’s not my friend” she retortedLaurel rolled her eyes “I know. I know. You want him to be something more but don’t forget that you’re older than him”“I don’t think I’m that older. No matter how old he is, as long as he’s of legal age, being twenty-two myself shouldn’t be a big deal” Grace said defensively.“One day, one week, one month, or even one year, there’s no difference in my eyes. As long as I’m older than the guy, the thought of a relationship forming becomes nonexistent but whatever floats your boat I guess” Laurel said.Grace rolled her eyes and shook her head in disappointment.“Talk like that is why you’re going to end up alone with your cats. As for me, as long as the guy has a mature mindset, I don’t see anything wrong with being in a relationship. Anyway, none of what we’re talking about matters if he isn’t interested in me or he isn’t single” “Whateve
Grace blushed because seeing Alexander on one knee made it look like he was proposing to her while holding the shoe he was about to wear her made her feel like she was Cinderella.“Okay,” Grace replied then took her foot out of the flipflop and wore the shoe.She did the same for the other foot, Laurel helping out so her friend doesn’t fall and everything went back to normal.“What are we going to do about these?” Grace asked, talking about the flipflop.Alexander carried them, stood up, and stretched them to her.“You can have them”“What? I can?” Grace asked “Yeah. Even though I did as good a job as I possibly could, let’s not forget that this is a temporary fix. In case the unfortunate happens, you should have something you can wear instead of walking barefoot which as you’ve already said is very embarrassing” Grace’s eyes widened in surprise.“That’s very nice of you,” Laurel said.“Thank you” Alexander gave her a charming smile.Laurel looked at her friend who seemed frozen the
Because Alexander had packed all his clothes before attending the wedding the day before, there was nothing for him to arrange when he woke up. He had gotten back the clothes he gave the hotel’s laundry department for dry cleaning after returning from the wedding then he arranged them in his suitcase in preparation for today.Lastly, he had taken care of every loose end he had left after returning from the wedding. From contacting Laura on behalf of Gift and setting up a meeting with designer Gustav who was visiting the shop sometime in the week, to sending the money to Victoria for the orphanage. Once at the door with his suitcase and duffle bag of money, wearing the clothes he had set aside for his departure, Alexander took one last look at his room and smiled.“Thanks for being my home for the past few days,” he said then opened the door.To his surprise, he saw Grace standing in front of his room, and looked like she was just about to knock on his door.“Grace?” Alexander said.
Alexander went back to WhatzApp where he continued chatting with Winifred until she said that she had to go offline because her teacher just walked into the class and she would talk to him later. The chat ended which was good because Alexander was starting to get tired as he wasn’t someone who liked chatting all that much. After that, Alexander looked at his phone, from front to back, and groaned. “Why haven’t I upgraded this yet?” He asked himself as he looked at the phone with disgust. How could he be using such an old model when he had hundreds of millions of dollars in his account? It was unbecoming and disgraceful. “Alright, I guess I know what to do today,” Alexander said then he dropped the phone on the bed and went to take a shower. After a couple of minutes, he came out of the bathroom fully dried, put on what he would wear for his outing then he took the phone from the bed and went out of the house. He got into his car and got ready to drive off, but first, he need
If he wasn’t able to read at an incredible pace thanks to his heightened intellect, he wouldn’t have been able to finish reading the second message because she deleted it less than a second after he received it.She sent the message again some seconds later and the second sentence was gone.[If you are then it’s kind of late, don’t you think?]Alexander chuckled because the deleted message showed that the girl had eavesdropped on his conversation with her father because she shouldn’t have known that he was done with high school and was waiting to go to college.She knew this which was why she deleted it, hoping that he didn’t see the message. Unfortunately for her, he did, and she couldn’t ask if he did because it would be awkward, so she just hoped and wanted to move on.He replied [Yeah, I know] pretending like he didn’t see the message she deleted.He also messaged that he wanted to save her number so she should give him a minute. [Okay but hurry up so we can continue talking][No
After eating so much food and satisfying his hunger, Alexander slept like a log and because he had nothing to do the following day, the System didn’t bother to wake him up. Within the time that he slept, his body changed a little, adapting to the ten stat points he was awarded after accomplishing his last mission, and a good portion of the food he ate was used for that which was why he wasn’t bloated after gobbling up all those many dishes.The next morning came and Alexander continued to sleep, not hearing when his alarm rang until it stopped.A couple of minutes passed and the alarm rang again but still, he wasn’t able to hear it until it stopped.Between the second time the alarm rang and the next time it would ring again— after snoozing— Alexander received a notification on his phone.It was a message, two actually, but Alexander still wasn’t able to hear them because of how deep in sleep he was until, finally, the next alarm that rang woke him up.{“Good morning, Mister Alexande
Afterward, Alexander, Mr. Terrence, and Mrs. Terrence sat in the living room and talked business while Winifred was told to go to her room. The girl pretended to do that, but she sat by the stairs and listened to the entire meeting. Her reason for doing that was because she wanted to know when the meeting would be over. She knew that Alexander would leave immediately after the meeting was done and she wanted to see him before he did. A couple of minutes later and the meeting came to an end. “Since we’re done discussing everything we have to for today, I guess it’s about time I take my leave,” Alexander said as he stood up from the couch. “Of course. Please allow us to escort you to your car” Mr. Terrence said as he and his wife stood up as well.“Thank you” Alexander smiled.“Wait, Winifred hasn’t said goodbye to him yet,” Mrs. Terrence said.“What?” Mr. Terrence grimaced. “It was her idea to invite Alexander over for dinner which resulted in this wonderful meeting taking place,
After the Possession System had transferred all of Mr. Ferguson’s properties and net worth to him, it had also replaced his name and face in all proof of ownership to Alexander’s and that includes blog articles and documentation of the matter.The Possession System had also covered a veil on everyone’s minds that made them forget that Mr. Ferguson used to be the rightful owner of everything that used to be his and replaced it with Alexander if they ever tried to look up the information.The veil also made inconsistencies in the altered proof of ownership redundant, meaning that anyone who checked the information wouldn’t think twice after seeing that the casino which had been active for longer than Alexander had been alive was somehow founded by him and one other person.In essence, whenever they saw or read anything that used to have Mr. Ferguson’s name and face as the owner of things, they would see Alexander’s which is exactly what happened when Mr. Terrence quickly reached for his
“It’s fine, honey. Alexander is our guest so I don’t see why we can’t break certain eating habits to accommodate him” Mr. Terrence said and his wife groaned. Again, she suspected her husband and his intention for permitting the invite she gave Alexander to come eat with them.Still, she kept quiet and just let things play out.“Well, I’d like to increase the number the estates I’ve built from the cities we’re occupying to other cities in other states as well, creating like a housing franchise. While I’m doing that, I’ve been thinking of entering into other business ventures that’ll be more profitable in the long run” Mr. Terence said and Alexander groaned. “Other business ventures, huh? Which ones do you have in mind?” Alexander asked. Mr. Terrence cleared his throat because he didn’t know how Alexander was going to take what he was about to say.“Well, I was thinking of getting into ventures like the casino business but things like that are quite challenging. You’d need someone wh
“Thank you, Missus Terrence, and don’t mind if I do,” Alexander said then asked Winifred to help him with one of the bowls so he could dish more food for himself. As she gave Alexander the bowl and he started dishing for himself, Mr. Terrence asked “So, Alexander, as I was saying before I was painfully interrupted…”Mrs. Terrence rolled her eyes again while having a smile on her face.“What’s your basketball experience?” Mr. Terrence asked as Alexander gave the bowl back to Winifred to keep while asking her to give him another bowl. “I’ve never played the game before. As a matter of fact, I’ve never been on the court or held the ball before” Alexander replied and Mr. Terrence’s eyes widened.“What about high school? Didn’t your high school have basketball as one of the sports the students played? Surely you got curious about shooting at the hoop at least once or twice” Mr. Terrence said.“Yes, we did have a basketball court as well as other games but I never really got to play” Ale
Both ladies were looking very beautiful. Though Winifred was young and still growing into her looks, she was very beautiful and had an innocent look to her which would make any man’s heart melt. As for Mrs. Terrence, she was the evidence of what the young girl had to look forward to when she was her age. Her face and body were excellently crafted by her creator. “What are you guys talking about?” Mrs. Terrence asked and both Alexander and her husband looked at her and Winifred. “I was just getting to know Alexander a little better is all. Isn’t that right, Alexander?” Mr. Terrence asked and they all looked at Alexander. “That’s right. Mr. Terrence and I were just talking about how I grew up and all. Nothing too serious” Mrs. Terrence looked at her husband suspiciously for a moment. Like Alexander, she too had a feeling that there was a motive behind why he agreed to the dinner invitation but she didn’t think as far as Alexander did to realize the truth so she let it go. “Alrig
“I’m very observant, remember? I could smell your intentions behind asking me all those questions from a mile away” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence groaned as he furrowed his eyebrows.“My intentions?” The man of the house asked.“That’s right. I’m not a father, but if I were, especially a father to a girl child, I wouldn’t just allow a stranger of my stature and build to come into my house just because my daughter wanted to invite them. Knowing how good of a businessman you must be to have what you do, you wouldn’t make such a reckless decision which leaves me to think that the reason why you allowed my invitation to pass is because you wanted to know what type of person you new tenant is, so this is basically a business move disguised as a caring father act” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence kept quiet to listen to the rest of what the young multimillionaire was going to say. “Because it isn’t normal for a person my age to have the amount of money to rent a place here or drive the ki
