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 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
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
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
Friday, the last weekday of the second week of July, and just as expected of this time of year, the afternoon sun was the hottest it had been all year long. The scorching heat that penetrated the scanty canopy of clouds made outside an unbearable place to be. However, behind the prestigious Coker Wake High School building was the perfect shade against the harsh weather. Four students could be found in the embrace of this cool shade. To be exact, three students could be found standing while the fourth was on the ground, uniform ruffled and dirty, body battered and bruised, and back up against a dumpster. He also appeared to be panting and clearing his throat like someone who had just successfully finished running a marathon.“I don’t think he learned his lesson, Fredrick. Why don’t you teach him again and this time make sure it sticks” said Paul, one of the students who was privileged to be among the standing group.On Paul’s uniform blazer was a gold colored badge that declared the
Alexander tried his best to block himself from her attacks but she purposely hit the back of his hand which Fredrick had stepped on and injured, causing him to drop his guard so she could continue to slap his face.After she had gone for long enough, Fredrick cleared his throat, drawing her attention.“Alright Cherry, that’s enough. The bell rang less than two minutes ago and the other students will be out any moment. Don’t do anything that’ll make them bring their ugly faces over here” Fredrick instructed.Though Paul and Cherry were the School’s Student President and Vice President respectively and as such were meant to be the top in the hierarchy of students, Fredrick was the only student who was above both of them.The reason for that was because of the family he came from. Actually, Coker Wake was a school owned by the Dove family, and as such, Fredrick has been the most influential and popular student in school since the day he enrolled.All the students adore him and all the s
He looked down at himself and how rough he was and he sighed.Alexander walked up to his father, ignoring the laughs and gossip being made about him then the first thing he did when he got to the Jeep was greet his father, Mr. Curry Philips. However, instead of accepting his greeting like a good father should, Mr. Curry sneered confusedly at Alexander.“Alex. What’s the meaning of this? Why are you in such an abhorrent state? Did you get into a fight with another student? How dare you do something like that?! Do you want to bring shame to the master and the entire Dove family with your actions? I thought I taught you better than this” Mr. Curry reprimanded, looking angrily at Alexander. Alexander couldn’t even say anything back. There were so many questions that he didn’t know where to start.“Alex, tell me. How did you get like this—?” Mr. Curry asked but then was interrupted.“I did it to him.”“Young Master Fredrick?!” Mr. Curry said, looking and sounding surprised when he saw Fr
“What? Master Dove wants to see me? Why—?” Alexander said in a panic but was cut short.“Shut up you worm. Say anything else in this car and I’ll tell Curry to kick you out” Fredrick said.Mr. Curry looked at Alexander angrily, using his face to tell him to shut the hell up. “When the hell did father give an instruction about seeing this trash— you know what? Never mind. I’m sure there’s a reason” Fredrick said.He sighed and said “Well, since Father is involved in this then I guess I’ll allow that monkey to breathe the same air as me” Fredrick looked at Alexander’s head through the opening in the blind and said:“I guess it’s your lucky day, worm. You get to ride home with me. Better cherish this moment’cause this is never going to happen again” Fredrick said and Alexander kept quiet.“About that, Young Master,” Mr. Curry said, and immediately, Fredrick and Alexander looked at him. “What is it this time?” Fredrick asked, exasperatedly.“We aren’t going to the estate right now. We
