"You know what?" Alex said and puts his hand over her shoulder. "Babe I did not even notice that it was you." Alex said softly to the girl. "Oh that's a relief. For a while there I thought if your memory had been wiped clean." The girl said chuckling"That would have just been terrible, right?" "Will you get your disgusting hands off her?" The boy said in anger as he tried to push Alex hand off the girl's shoulder but Alex had a tight grip and he wasn't letting go. "This is nothing but madness, Camille. Are you trying to tell me that you are actually dating this riff raff?" "Hey you watch your tone. My man is not a riff Raff..he is twice the man you will ever be and I will not allow you to insult him anymore." Camille said. "Oh I will insult him all I want because this is madness. You are wicked young woman. Cruel even. You know very well that your father designed you for me. You know that my family has invested so much in yours and the price was that you will have to get married
"Sir, I believe that we can actually get through to this is we..." A voice rang from the phone."How many times do I have to repeat myself? I said that I don't care how you do it but just get it done. Am I dealing with a bunch of riff raffs? Why can't one of you just understand what I am trying to say and do what I said you should do without troubling me this way?" Mr. Adams screamed over the phone and immediately ended the call. As soon as he did, his phone rang again and he picked it up angrily. "What?" He screamed. "Good afternoon sir. This is Lily," a tiny voice said. Lily was his assistant, the only one that he refused to yell at because she sounded so much like his own daughter but he was not in a good mood. His contractors were calling him asking for money before they could do anything getting him the structure that he wanted. At that point, he was sick and tired of it already and all he wanted was to have some peace of mind. Because of Alex, he could not get the money that
"Dad!" Bobby said as he came running into the room. He heard the sound of a glass cup shattering and knew that the old man was drinking again. The little incident with Alex had ruined his life and he was slowly becoming a shadow of himself. "Dad, what's wrong?" The boy said as he approached his father. The man stood heavily on the ground, heaving in anger. Bobby had seen him like that several times. It was his rage that drove his mother out of the house and yet, his father never wanted to attend any anger management class. According to him, nothing was wrong with him and the people that really needed help were the ones that kept getting on his nerves."Dad, what's wrong?" He asked again when he got no response from him "You see that little twit that parades himself like a boss around town, influencing the decision of every business owner in this state?" He then turned and looked at him. "I want him dead." He said staring at his son."Dad, what happened?" Bobby knew that his father w
"What the fuck happened?" He exclaimed, not understanding what he was staring at. "The news got to me few moments ago. I wanted to go check out the site but I wanted you to come with me.""What caused this Damien? Or should I be asking, who caused this?" Alex wasn't naive. He knew that just a few weeks he was in the industry, he has caused troubles for a lot of people and had created enemies for himself but at that point, he did not care anymore. he came in to see that the system was rigged and he was not going to allow it to continue like that. He was going to ensure that he did everything in his power to correct what had to be corrected. It was the only way his company would grow well without any obstacles as it's doing now."We don't know if it was a person that did it but reports have it that a natural disasters happened in that location." "That can't be possible. You and I know very well that we checked all of these things. Before we even got that place, we had to ensure that i
Alex stares at the warehouse, dumbfounded about what could really be happening. He was startled back to reality by a soft touch on his back. "Everything is gone?" He heard Damien voice behind him. "Now do you believe that someone did this?" Alex asks him and walks away, back to his car. He sits in the car waiting for Damien and watches as Damien tries to explain what he does not understand to the media. He could feel his blood boiling. Millions of dollars were wasted and the one that caused it was properly in their palour, sipping on a good cocktail and having a blast. "Is there any cause to worry?" He asked Damien as soon as the man got back to the car "Nope. None at all. They just asked the normal obvious questions and I gave them the normal obvious answers.""Good. Driver, let's go to the office." Alex said and sat back to think and collect his thoughts. As soon as he enters the company, he moves straight to his office and pours brandy to two glasses. He passes one down to Da
"Dustin what is it?" Alex answers his call with a raspy voice. "Hey man, calm down. What's with the attitude? What happened?" He asks. "Okay, I'm sorry. I'm just having a shitty day as if is." "I was meaning to ask you where you ran off to. I mean, we turned around and you were no where to be found. After you left the class, we figured that maybe you just wanted to get some fresh air or you wanted to use the restroom. What happened along the way because we couldn't find you anymore?" "I had some emergencies to take care of." He gave them a short response, not willing to disclose everything just yet. "Oh come on now Alex. This is exactly what the problem is!" Dustin exclaimed "What are you talking about?" He asked. "How can you say that to me? I am your friend and of late, it feels like I don't even know you. I mean what exactly is going on? What sort of emergency are you referring to?""I think you need to calm down. Honestly, it's nothing serious. It's just that I have a whole
"I don't need a personal bodyguard Damien," Alex argued. He knew what having a personal bodyguard entails. He would be forced to constantly work around with the guy and the was no way he was going to do that without people suspecting him for being more than just a lottery ticket winner."How can you can say that? Do you not understand the things happening in your life. You are being attacked from all angles. I will not just sit back and do nothing when I know for a fact that this is not normal. It's not normal Alex. We need to ensure that you are properly armed before something that I cannot comprehend happens to you. Your grandfather will be so upset with me if anything should happen to you." "Damien, I don't care. We are not getting a personal bodyguard for me and that is final." He said and ended the call. "We are here sir," his driver said as he pulled up into the driveway of a club that Alex could not recongize. he was not the type that loved going out but still, he knew some o
"Are you actually talking to me in that manner?" The girl asks angrily."Yes I am. Is there a problem? Is there something you actually wanted to tell me?" He asks "Oh yes there is," the girl screamed and Alex was happy that he was getting the girl all worked up. "You are a nonsense man. How dare you speak to a lady like that?" "Oh now now dear. I am only saying what my eyes can see and I don't think you are a lady. As a matter of fact, I think that you are so far away from being a lady." She said finally. "This is madness. This is absolute madness. I will ensure that you are punsihed for this. For talking to me in this manner, I will ensure that you pay greatly for it. You are going to regret everything you have said to me today, mark my words." She said. "Oh I don't think I am going to regret anything at all." He told her as he begun sipping on his drink. The girl laughed suddenly, and it was a laughter filled with pains. "You obviously have no idea who I am. Listen to me, I wi
