He watched in anger as the couple moved slowly into the hall, enjoying the attention they were both getting and Alex could not help but think if the main reason she left is because she had a rich man on her tail. Gulping his water, he made his way to the toilet. He needed some privacy for what he was about to do. "I'll be back," he said and patted Brittany's back as he walked away. He could not stand to be that close to Aurora when she was in the arms of another man, laughing. The sight riled him up and made him want to stick a fork through the man's hand. Immediately he got to the toilet, he pulled out his phone and did his research, he found out very easily everything about the young man and he saw that he was not even as rich as he was. This gladden his heart. At least, he was not much of a competition to him but he could not help but wonder how he was able to get in contact with her and how and when they started dating. Checking his face in the mirror, he put on his mask again
Alex came out of the bathroom and walked slowly to meet Brittany. Before he could get to where she was, she saw her lover talking to her. Or at least the man her parents wanted to be her lover. He stood at a distance and tried to watch what was happening between them. He could see that Brittany loved the attention he was getting from the man and he wondered what the problem was. The man was not terrible looking and he could see that he was charming. He made a mental note within himself to find out what he was actually the problem between the both of them. Before Alex could make the decision to move towards them, he saw the young man grab her viscously by her hand and he knew that something was definitely wrong but still, he decided to not move at all. He could hear some altercations between the both of them and he began to wonder why no one else was paying attention to them. When he noticed Brittany twisting her face to show pains and hurt he moved towards them."Take your hands off
"Alex, wait!" She said and held him by the arms, preventing him from walking away. Alex could hear his heart beating fast and he wondered what sort of spell she casted on him that he could still want to do anything to make her happy. But he could not show her how much he wanted her. He could not show her how much she meant to him because she knew that she would be so eager to take advantage of it if she ever found out, so he had to keep everything hidden and he had to ensure that his feelings were not seen by her. "What is it?" He said softly as he turned to face her. "I'm sorry about coming here with another man..yes, I had an inclination that you maybe here and yes, I did do this on purpose just to hurt you but you need to try and understand. I am not a bad person and you know this, I am just a woman that is hurting and I am desperate for revenge." She cried. 'Revenge, could it be that she actually paired up with his enemies and agreed to be the mole in his company just to get r
"Todd, tell us. How does it feel to just land one of the best contracts in the industry?" One of the guests asked a man beaming with so much joy. He was the one who had organized the little party as a way of congratulating himself for sealing the biggest deal in the cosmetology department. "Well, I must say that the feeling is just splendid. I can't even imagine how amazing it feels. I actually thought that after I have gotten the contract, that I won't be so excited but I was so wrong. I got the contract yesterday and I have been beaming since then because this means so much more for me and my staffs. My company is going to grow tremendously after this and honestly, I can't wait." He said with smiles all over his face.Todd was your typical rich kid. His father owned an array of business that Todd inherited after what felt like years of his father begging him. He wanted to do nothing with his life. After all, he was placed on a very juicy monthly allowance and he had everything that
"Ahem," Brittany cleared her throat as she stood behind her parents. Her mom was the first to turn around and she noticed that Brittany was standing behind them. "My darling child," she said excitedly as she pulled her into a hug. "How are you mother?" She asked, though she did not have to because she could see the woman beaming with so much happiness and she was looking younger than her age. "Oh I am wonderful. You know your father has been taking such good care of me." "Wow I am so happy to hear that. Where is dad by the way?" She asked. "Umm, dad is somewhere. He was parking the car when I left and you know how your father is, he loves to socialize. I am sure when he is done with all that he will come back to me. But for now," her mother said as she turned her attention to Alex. "who is this fine man standing beside you?" She asked."Oh mom, this is my boyfriend!" Brittany said excitedly, happy that her mother actually liked Alex already. That just meant that she had one less
"Aurora," Michael said dragging her back with a fake smile on his face. "How many times have I told you to stay away from things that do not concern you!' he said harshly and Alex stood still and watched the drama unfold. He wasn't a big fan of drama and tension but those two seemed to follow him everywhere he went and he got tired of trying to push them away. Slowly, he decided that he was going to allow whatever what's to happen to happen. "What is the meaning of all these nonsense?! These people are very influential and you will not embarass me this way in front of them." "Yeah, take your little slut away!" Tyler screamed at the top of his voice "Important people are talking and we do not need her input." "Did you just call me a slut?!" Aurora said shooting daggers at Tyler from her eyes. "I will call you whatever I want to call you. As a matter of fact, the is no difference between you and this piece of rag that Brittany brought to show to her parents as her new man!" He said
"Alexander Albert!" Todd excalimed when his mask was off and he could see who was at his party. "Oh my God, I can't believe that it's actually you!" He was gleaming with so much happiness at being able to be in the same room with someone as influential as Alexander Albert. "Hello, Todd," Alex said and looked at Aurora in anger. "I didn't even know that you got my invitation. It is suc a honour to have you here. Oh my God!" He gasped when the euphoria of seeing Alex began to die and he could remember how badly he treated the young man. "I am so sorry for the way I treated you. I had no idea that you were the one. If I did, I would have never allowed anyone to bully you at my party. Can you please forgive me?" Todd asked, desperate to hear a yes. Instead, he heard the voice of Brittany's father. "Okay, I am lost now. Who is this man and why are you all fawning over him? This is the same man that raped my daughter and you should be calling the police instead of trying to make him fe
"Alexander Albert!" Todd excalimed when his mask was off and he could see who was at his party. "Oh my God, I can't believe that it's actually you!" He was gleaming with so much happiness at being able to be in the same room with someone as influential as Alexander Albert. "Hello, Todd," Alex said and looked at Aurora in anger.

Alex's blood ran cold as he stared at the message in front of him. He could not believe that Nancy could actually be the one behind everything. Immediately, he found a way to jiggle out of his woman embrace and went to the kitchen to make a call. As soon as he entered, he saw his men watching a football game and he immediately told them to lowered the volume of it. "What's going on?" Hayden asked as he lowered the volume of the game. "I need to make a call." "No, what you need to do is to cuddle Ivy while she sleeps " Dustin said, standing up an walking towards him. "She is already fast asleep. Trust me. This is equally as important." He said as he placed a call to the commissioner. "Commissioner, talk to me, what is actually going on?" Alex asked. "Exactly what I sent to you." He said. "Who did this test?" "Trust me sir. We are not lukewarm and incompetent over here. I had that test done by people who actually know what they are doing and for it to come out this way, it mean
Alex's sat down. He knew that whatever he was about to say would have to be received while sitting. He feared for the very worst and hoped that the young man would not be saying anything that would lead to him being more Disturbed than he already was. "Damien, what is it?" He asked. "Before I answer that question I need to ask. Have you guys gotten Ivy? Is she okay?" He asked again. "Well yes. She is. We have gotten a hold of her and she is currently in the hospital receiving some treatments. Damien, what the hell is going on?" He asked. "Well, first, you will need to find a way to calm down. But after you guys left, I called Cole and I had him do some digging around about the letter." "Okay and what is going on with the letter?" He asked. "Well, we found out some very striking things that I think needs to be addressed. He took samples and he was quick to run them by an illegal lab that he knows so that we could get immediate results. We did and you would never believe who is be
"Doctor, what is it?" Alex asked, not sure if he really wanted to know the answer to that question. He struggled within himself but he knew that he had to know exactly what was going on and he could not run from the truth forever. "Well, Mr. Albert, nothing is wrong with her. She just has some broken ribs that we will need to correct because if we don't, it could lead to something more drastic." "Okay then fine. Go ahead and correct it," Alex said as he heaved a sigh of relief. "Why then was your face like that? You had me worried you know." "Well my face has to be like this because most of her bones have been broken and even though we have not done am x-ray scan on her yet, we are positive that this may just be across her entire body. And you know how long it takes for bone to heal." Alex understood. Ivy would have to go through another set of pains. "doctor, as long as it is something that can be fixed and you know how to fix it, I will say that you do not bother yourself and ju
Alex could not believe what he was actually seeing. His woman was finally free. He saw a man carrying her out from the building and he brought her to the truck. Immediately they had gotten inside, Alex was the first to run to her and he immediately wrapped her in his arms. "Ivy," he said as he released as breath of air. Finally he could breath as he saw his woman and he was assured that she was safe. She felt too cold to touch and Alex could only imagine all the things she had to go through while she was in the arms of those men and ladies. He could only wish that none of those men had so much as touched her because if they did, he was not going to hesitate to actually drive a stake through their hearts. "Alex," she said softly as she almost collapsed into his arms. She took in the warmth of his presence and held as tightly as she could to not lose the sanity that his presence brought to her. "I'm so sorry," he said as he held her. "I am so sorry that I allowed this to happen to
The drive there was a fast one. Alex did not care about traffic. All he wanted was to get to the warehouse on time and ensure that Ivy was okay. "You can slow down now, we are almost there." Andres said but still, Alex did not bother to listen. He kept going at high speed wanting nothing more than to reach Ivy without the blink of an eye. Suddenly, he turned into an abandoned road filled with potholes. "Okay you really need to slow down now. You can't be driving at such speed on a road like this you know. You are going to wreck this car." "Oh calm down already. Nothing will happen to the car," Alex said ignoring him as he kept driving. Soon he reached a lonely path. "We should walk on our feet here." Andres suggested "Why? The road is wide enough to be driven on." "Yes it is but with the way you are going, you will definitely get all of us killed. We need to be subtle and if you haven't noticed, you are driving at an enormous speed right now. So the best option is for us to wa
The time on the wall read 7:15pm and Alex looked out to see that it was dark. Alex could not rest, he kept pacing around and Andres did not bother to tell him to rest. He understood what the man was going through. Anxiety, worry, panic. It was to be expected. After all, the love of his life was stuck in a bad place and he had to do nothing else but sit and worry all day. He could not even go to help her. "Are you sure that we should not go to her? I mean come on now. How sure are you that those your guys will be able to handle this all by themselves? What if they mess everything up? You know that I will hold you responsible if anything should happen right?" Alex finally said after a long time of keeping mute. "Yes I know that I will be held responsible and I will take full responsibility if it gets to that but right now sir, the best thing that we can do is allow these men to do their job. I can assure you they are well trained and they know what they are doing. They won't mess it
Alex knocked on his door and Dustin opened to see a very distressed looking man. "What happened?" He asked as Alex walked into the house, followed by Andres. "Those bitches called again." Alex answered as he went into his kitchen to get himself a cup of water. "And what did they say?" He asked. "Well they did not say anything good other than the fact that this is going out of hand and that they know my family is in town." Hayden laughed as he heard Alex finish talking and the man did not get what was so funny. "Okay what are you laughing at right now?" He asked. "Well that is not the truth right. You don't have a family so you obviously fooled them." He said still laughing but stopped along the way as realized that Alex was not laughing with him. "What is it?" He asked again. "It's not funny because I do have a family. " *What?" Hayden excalimed. "How come you have a family and yet I have never heard of this family before. What the hell is that?" He asked in outrage but Alex
"Why are you doing this?" Ivy asked as she ate the food in a haste. She did not even know that she was hungry. She imagined she must have gone for close to two days without food nor water. Her energy was drained and the only thing she was working on was the adrenaline to get out of whatever mess she had found herself in alive. "Well what can I say? I took pity on you and I knew that Davina had not given you something to eat or drink. I feel like it's very cruel. I mean after all, we are not after you. You are not the bad guy here, you just happened to be a little bit stuck in between a cross fire." "Is that how you want to describe it?!" Ivy asked as she finished her meal."What other way is there to actually describe something like this?" She asked. "Well you guys would have just served your time and gotten out of prison as free women. What do you think is going to happen if Alex does not decide to go through with your plan." "Are you serious?" Rebecca said as she turned to look
Rebecca heaved a sigh as she watched her being dragged out of the room. She would have never believed that she would have to do something like that to the girl but the truth was that she was slowly losing her mind and what she did would benefit both of them. She knew very well that Alex was not the kind of man for them to double cross and if she tried to hurt Ivy or worse, if she actually went through with killing the girl. Alex would go to great heights to ensure that we are locked up in a place that the sun never shines. Rebecca did not know much about her but she could tell that she wanted to live her life and not be subjected to having to hide. To achieve that, then she would have to not allow her to do what she planned on doing. "I can't actually believe this girl," she muttered under her breath as she massaged her head. She was stressed out and wished that she will just hear the good news already so that she could Ivy free and also walk away as a free woman. She craved to go
