After Bambi left, Alex rejoined the group inside. Daniel couldn't help but express his admiration, saying, "Yo, unlike that girl, she's good... plus she's fine. Did you see that ass?"John, with a teasing grin, chimed in, "You have a thing with ladies that have a big butt."Alex rolled his eyes, playfully exasperated. "Okay, enough, you guys. And she doesn't really have the backside like that."Zac couldn't resist adding his own comment. "So you admit you do like women with a fat Kardashian butt, huh?"Alex sighed, knowing he was outnumbered. "Sometimes." The room erupted into laughter.Daniel prodded, "So, give us the tea about last night."Alex leaned back, a thoughtful expression on his face. "Well, I was so surprised and kind of relieved to see her, honestly."Daniel raised an eyebrow, adding a teasing tone, "Both your ex?""Okay, stop," Alex laughed. "You know I'm talking about Isabella."Aaron, genuinely surprised, chimed in, "Isabella was at the party?"Alex confirmed, "Yes, wi
Isabella arrived at the scene, entering the conference room where her uncle and Mama Christina were already in a meeting with her staff. As she stepped in, her uncle's stern voice filled the room, declaring, "Things are going to change around here. Henceforth, you all will be reporting to me."Isabella cleared her throat to signal her presence. Just then, her staff turned their attention to her, greeting her respectfully. Taking charge, she addressed them, "You all should please excuse us." Her staff members immediately started standing up to leave, but her uncle abruptly interrupted, "Did I ask any of you to leave? What insolence!"Mama Christina, sensing the tension, intervened by gently holding her brother's hand to signal for the staff to go.As the staff filed out of the room, leaving her alone with Mama Christina and her uncle, the tense atmosphere hung thick in the air. Her uncle, breaking the silence, admonished her, "I know my brother taught you some morals before he passed,
As Isabella navigated the chaotic aftermath of the surprise engagement, her phone buzzed incessantly with messages from friends eagerly discussing the unfolding drama on social media. Frustrated, she sighed and muttered, "Oh God, what have I gotten myself into!" Setting her phone aside, she braced herself for the next wave of challenges.Just then, Jessica entered her office with a knowing smirk. "That was quite a twist, Isabella."Isabella rolled her eyes, replying, "Girl, don't even get me started. How messy is it on social media? Kia is already blowing up my phone."Jessica, amused, nodded in agreement. "It's quite messy, girl. Andy said we should all meet up. Club Eden tonight. Are you coming?"Isabella hesitated, contemplating the impending discussions with her family. "I really don't know. I'm going to have another round of talk with my mum and brother tonight. I can't handle any more discussions. Maybe tomorrow? We reschedule?"Understanding, Jessica nodded and said, "Alright..
Isabella's hands gripped the steering wheel as she navigated through the city traffic, her mind buzzing with the possibilities of the unexpected call. The ringtone echoed through the car, and with a quick glance at the screen, she saw it was an unknown number. Curiosity mingled with caution as she answered."Hello, this is Isabella," she greeted, her voice a blend of professionalism and curiosity."Isabella, hi! This is Diane from Stellar Ads. We've been following your social media, and we love your look. We're working on a big campaign and we'd love to feature you and Ruben. It's a fantastic opportunity with a great payout. What do you think?" Diane's voice bubbled with enthusiasm.Isabella's eyes widened, and a smile crept onto her face. "Wow, that's amazing news! I'm definitely interested. Tell me more about the campaign."Diane explained the details, the brand, the concept, and the exposure Isabella and Ruben would gain. The more she spoke, the more Isabella's excitement grew. The
The following morning, the air in the luxurious mansion carried the scent of breakfast as Alex, dressed in a sharp suit, prepared to head out for work. He approached the butler and casually mentioned, "I'll be leaving early today. Need to handle Becca's situation."Just as he spoke, the grandeur of the scene was interrupted by the entrance of his mother, Grace, an epitome of elegance. "We are going together today," she declared with a determined smile.Alex, taken aback, tried to protest, "But, mummy, do you really have to? I mean, you have your exercises."Grace dismissed his concern with a wave of her hand. "Do I look sick to you? I told Lisa not to come today."Alex, ever the caring son, furrowed his brows. "Why not? I can't have you miss a day of it. You have to stay back and continue your exercises."Grace stood her ground, her expression unwavering. "We are going together."Alex sighed, knowing that when his mother set her mind to something, there was no changing it. As the sle
As Alex re-entered the conference room, he could sense that the dynamics had shifted during his brief absence. The conversation between Daniel, his mother, and Becca seemed to be reaching a resolution. Daniel, with a hint of determination, addressed Grace, "I won't let you down, ma."Grace replied, "You better, and that goes for the rest of you. You're dismissed." With those words, the disgruntled group filed out of the room, leaving behind a lingering air of unresolved tension. Becca, visibly unsatisfied with how things turned out, maintained her composure.Grace turned to Alex, a sense of urgency in her gaze. "I should be on my way now to Rich's. The Butler and I will go. Be a good boy and handle things well here, hun?"Alex nodded, a mix of reassurance and apprehension in his expression. "Yes, Mum." With that, Grace left the room, leaving Alex and Becca alone to confront the lingering issues.Seeing an opportunity to address the matter at hand, Alex turned to Becca and said, "We ne
As Alex and Bambi entered his office, the weight of the day's events lingered in the air. Bambi, grateful for the support yet burdened by the whispers that surrounded her, hesitated before speaking her truth."I appreciate everything you do for me, but I don't think I can continue working with you, Alex," Bambi admitted with a heavy sigh.Alex, surprised by her statement, asked, "What do you mean?"Bambi explained, "I mean, your mum was seriously angry earlier today, and I don't want to be the reason she's mad at you."Alex reassured her, "My mum is just acting based on what Becca told her, and as you could see... it was handled. You don't have to worry about that."Bambi, however, continued, "Not only that, though. I've been hearing whispers about me seducing you to get this job. I really don't want to be put in this situation."Alex, frustrated by the unjust rumors, said firmly, "Listen, Bambi, people will always say what they want to say. You and I both know it's not true. You can'
As the weight of the Sinclair project settled over the conversation on the porch of the Harrington mansion, Alex couldn't help but express his reservations."But you know my history with that family. Why bring me on board? Are you trying to cause a problem?" Alex questioned, a mix of skepticism and concern in his voice.Rich, leaning forward with a thoughtful expression, replied, "I know about that, and of course, I wouldn't cause any problems for you. But this is a major project, a precursor to the one we'll be working on for Africa."Alex, trying to grasp the magnitude of the proposition, pressed further, "Can't you get someone else, aside from me and the butler?"Grace, with a knowing look, added, "He isn't a Fitzgerald. You are the only one that can do it. Besides, you know I can't because of my health.""But, Mum, you're getting better," Alex interjected, concern etching his face.Grace, turning to Rich, exclaimed, "Are you listening to this boy? This is the time I'm supposed to
