"Okay, you guys are not actually saying anything right now and it's starting to freak me out." "Well, we actually don't even know what to say if we are to be very honest with you right now but the only thing we can actually say is that we understand you haven't been able to tell anyone what you just told us for fear of judgement and we won't actually judge you. We understand that it must have been a bit overwhelming and you may not have understood how to navigate everything so smoothly." Dustin said"Yeah. We understand that but we have been friends for the longest time Alex. We can't lie to ourselves. We should not be lying to ourselves about many things and I would really appreciate it if you don't actually keep secrets from us again because the truth is that we will still find out about it and when we find out from people outside, it's embarrassing." "Yeah. I understand that. I am terribly sorry about this but I can promise you that it won't happen again." "Well, we will just ha
"Is everything okay with your guys?" Dustin asked as they arrived at the hotel. "Yes, everything is okay with them. It's just that sometimes the bodyguard likes to act like he is my father or something?" Alex complained with his eyes on the road "You mean, he cares about you?" Hayden injected and immediately Alex turned to give him dangerous eyes. "That's not what I mean." He said and then looked at the road again. "But some may say that," he added. "Well whatever the case may be, I am actually glad that they are coming and that they are here," Trevor spoke up. "Because honestly, what if something like this happens again? What are we going to do to defend ourselves? I can't risk having to fight those guys off" he expressed his genuine concer and fear while looking around in fright that those boys would come back and have his head. "Okay, this is just a waste of time. Even without my bodyguard being here, those boys can't actually hurt you and that's because I did not just bring y
"What did you just say to me?" He turned and said to the young man. "I said exactly what you heard," the man, pale blue eyes and a dirty blond hair with a nasty smile stood tall and said with authority. Alex was amazed. He had to give it to him. He was bold but it was the same boldness that will get him into trouble very soon. "And why should we move? This table wasn't reserved for anyone when we got here!" Dustin said when he noticed that the room had gone quiet. "Well if you actually visited sophisticated places like these often, you would know that the seat doesn't have to be placed with a flyer that reads "Reserved" before it is known to be reserved.""So what's the indicator because we surely do not know or even see any right now." Hayden added. "Well, how would you know that when you are constantly not listening to what I am saying." "Young man, look I would really prefer it if you would stop bothering us. This table was not reserved and we are not ready to order now, so pl
"What did you just call him?" The waiter asked, shaking visibly"Oh he just called by my name." Alex said with a smug look on his face. "Wait, do you mean like Mr. Alexander Albert, like the owner of this restaurant?" The young man was still shaking and Alex's friends could not help but enjoy every scene before their eyes. "Oh actually, he means like Mr. Alexander Albert, the owner of not just this restaurant but the CEO of the company that owns this restaurant!" Alex said, finally standing up and as he stood up, he saw the man fall on his knees and he immediately started begging. "My goodness, Travis what have you done?!" The manager yelled at him. "Oh you don't need to ask so many questions because I can answer them perfectly for you. You see, this your employee here had the audacity to insult me and my friends simply because of the way we are dressed. He called us all manner of name and even accused us of being thieves who are here to steal pictures and pretend like we are rich.
"Alex! What the hell do you think you are doing?" Dustin said and walked up to him. "Don't you remember that this same boy insulted us in front of all these people and he called you a theif!" He said angrily. "Yeah, and the same man is on his knees begging right now. He is even crying. Look, I understand that what he did was silly but come on now, everyone makes mistakes." "Okay, his is worst than a silly mistake. You can't forgive him for this." "Well, I chose to forgive him. Listen, I don't know what you are thinking but I understand this young man. I have been in a situation like this before and I can tell you for a fact that it is really crippling to be in such a situation. I understand that what he did was actually very stupid and all but I think he has learnt his lesson and he deserves a second chance and I am ready to give that to him, so yes. I won't be firing him." "But Alex!" Hayden was about to speak when Alex raised his hand and shut him up."My decision is final." He
"Alex! What the hell do you think you are doing?" Dustin said and walked up to him. "Don't you remember that this same boy insulted us in front of all these people and he called you a theif!" He said angrily. "Yeah, and the same man is on his knees begging right now. He is even crying. Look, I understand that what he did was silly but come on now, everyone makes mistakes."

"Brittany!" Dustin said, surprised to see her there. "what are you doing here?" He asked. "Well, if you must know, I am here to meet my husband." "Your what?!" Hayden excalimed"Oh, he didn't tell you the goodnews?" She said, briming from ear to eyes. "well, allow me to do the honours then. He is probably just shy. You know how boys can be. The truth is that Alex and I are actually engaged. You see he agreed to do a business deal with my parents and part of the deal states that I am to be his lovely wife." She said Immediately, Alex bursted out in laughter. "Is that what you are telling yourself to be able to sleep at night?" He said and turned to look a her in humour. "For goodness sake, please don't lie to yourself like that because it will do you no good at all. Listen to me, you don't have to do all these okay. Just tell people the truth and do not try to make a good out of a bad situation." Alex ignored her pleading eyes and still stood by his words. He did not understand how
"Well Alex, if I was you, I would be scared!" Hayden said as he looked at Brittany walk away. "I know right. You guys also felt the coldness of her last statement, right? I'm not running mad here am I?" "But of course you are not. Look, that girl is broken. She is in pains and you know how cruel a woman can be when she is in pains.""Yes, I know. That is what is making me so scared in the first place. I really don't know what to do about all of this but I can assure you that this was not how I saw this going." Alex confirmed. "You guys should calm down really." Dustin added. "okay, so what if she is broken? She made a huge mistake by assuming that Alex was something he was not to her and Alex made it perfectly clear that he is not her man. She is just being dramatic for nothing." He emphasized as he took a sip of his water. "And what if she later comes to him and what's to hurt him?" Trevor asked"Are you kidding me right now? Alex here is a CEO of a multimillion dollar company. D
