He had called Scarlet earlier and she told him she was back at the office trying to finish up on a project she was working on.He went straight to her office and found her behind the desk looking over some documents.“Scarlet, we need to talk.”“Hi Xavier, I’m doing okay thanks for asking.”Xavier rolled his eyes and pushed back her chair. He lifted her up and bent down to look her in the eyes.“You have ten seconds to come with me or I’ll carry you out of here.”“What? You wouldn’t..”“Do you really think so?”She knew Xavier wasn’t the type to bluff. He definitely had no problem carrying her over his shoulder and walking out of the office for everyone to see. That would be embarrassing.“Fine. I’m coming, just give me a minute to clear out my desk. Am I in trouble?”“We’ll see.”“Where are we going?”“My place.”Xavier pulled up at his mansion and stepped out of the car. His house overlooked the sea. The place had a serenity

She hurried to the door and opened it. The smile on her face was bright and beautiful, she practically glowed.“Someone’s definitely feeling better. I was so worried about you that I didn’t get much sleep.” Vincent said“I’m sorry I made you worry. I guess flying isn’t really my thing.”“Are you hungry?

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 64“You’ve been very patient Xavier” Don Alfredo said over the phone. I’m glad you didn’t rush it, you would probably have made a few mistakes if you had let your anger get into your head.”“I waited two years to re-emerge and set my plans in motion. I wouldn’t do anything to jeopardize it.”“What about Scarlet. Is she alright with all this? You know, with her past experience with Alex it must be difficult for her.”Xavier was surprised. “You knew about it?”“I was friends with her father before he died, he used to work for me. We talked and he told me a few things. He told me how His nephew’s death affected Scarlet. She wasn’t the same after that. She withdrew into a cocoon and it took her a while to get over it. His brother and sister-in-law were so broken. But the Whitlocks were too powerful. They were afraid to go against him. They left the country too with their only remaining daughter. She couldn’t grow up in that environment.”“You knew all these and yet

He chose that hotel because it was on the outskirts of town and people rarely frequented it. Those who usually went there were people who lived out of town and wanted a quiet, sinful rendezvous with their lovers without being caught. It was the perfect hiding place.He had already set the mood. Soft light, cool, slow music, bottles of red wine, and candles. He wanted to show her that she meant something to him and that she wasn’t just his sex toy, even though it appeared that way. But it was her fault. She wouldn’t give him a chance to show her that he loved her, he wanted her to be his. He looked at the clock. She was running late.Then he heard footsteps down the hall. He recognized her steps, how she moved lightly on her feet. Her heels made contact with the tiled floor and the sound echoed in the empty hall way. He heard her stop at the door and heard the handle click.“I

His RESURGENCECHAPTER 149“You were right about Alex.” Clara said when Aurora had sat down and ordered a drink. “He really acted strange yesterday and almost choked me to death. The sooner we get rid of him, the better.”“Did you doubt me?” Aurora asked, sipping from her glass of wine.“I don’t exactly trust you, you know that.”“I don’t either, but we’ve only got each other. What do you think Alex is going to do to you when he gets what he wants? You know definitely that he’s not going to keep you around.”“And will you? If I help you get the company, will you not ditch me also? He’s your son after all, I’m sure that being unreliable is in your gene.”“You’ll be by my side after all this, I can guarantee that. Just, help me set up an appointment with the stakeholders and shareholders if you can. You work there so I’m sure you have your ways.”“I’ll do my best. When will you expose Alex?”“Soon.

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 148“No, no, NO! It can’t be. She would never betray me like that. She wouldn’t do that to her own son. How could she? “Clara stared at him, her mouth open. She had never seen him so hyperactive and angry. This wasn’t normal. Aurora was right, Alex was sick.“Calm down Alex. We’re still at the office. You don’t want to draw so much attention do you?”Alex stopped and stared out the window, suddenly sullen and calm.“Fine then. We’ll need to eliminate everyone who’s after my company. Whitlock corporation cannot be buried and destroyed. Since it has been merged with Hernandez conglomerates, I have a right to it. I’ll get it by all means.”“What are you going to do?” Clara asked.“Nathaniel cannot sell this company. And my mother can’t have it either. That greedy bitch!” He fumed, grabbing on to the window blinds and squeezing it until he hurt himself.“Alex, you’re bleeding, stop it.”He looked at the cut in his hand and chuckled. “It’s been a long time since I

Clara looked around, taking in the view.“Nice place, I guess you’ve still got some money to spare.” Aurora’s face whitened and colour completely faded. What if Clara was actually behind the blackmail?“Why? Are you short of cash, need money?”Clara laughed and pushed back the strand of hair that fell loosely on her face. “Who doesn’t want money? Isn’t that why you asked me to help you get your hands on Xavier’s company?”Aurora’s eyes widened and she looked around to make sure no one was listening in. “You shouldn’t say that out loud. It’s not a private place.”“You shouldn’t hide your greed Aurora, we’re the same, and that’s why I’m going to help you. But there’s only one problem though, Micheal.”“Alex?”“He doesn’t go by that name anymore.”“That’s what he told me. He wants nothing to do with me Clara, he hates me.”“You’ll be going up against him if you fight for the c

Sometimes, Angelica would come over and stay with her. It hurt her to see her daughter-in-law so broken and lost. She felt it too.But last night was different.

He would know because he worked with buildings. But this touch was quite different from anything he had ever seen.He sat up and pushed the velvety blanket off of him so he could get up, but he couldn’t move his legs. They seemed to be too heavy now. His head ached too and he reached up to touch it. He felt bandages wrapped around his head.What was going on? How did he get there? And where was he exactly?He laid back down and covered himself quickly but quietly when he heard footsteps outside the room. The door opened a second later and a woman walked in, a tray in hand. He peeped through his half open eyes and saw that she was dressed as a nurse. There were fresh bandages and first aid. He eased up a bit and opened his eyes.“Where am I?” He askedThe nurse jumped, startled and placed a hand on her chest. She breathed in r

She had already decided in her mind that her son was dead and there was nothing she could do about it. Never in her wildest dreams did she think he would do something this extreme.Changing your identity, your face and your name, that took a lot of guts and sacrifice. But she couldn’t blame him though. He didn’t want to go to jail and the only way to escape prison was to become someone else.She wanted to say so much, but she held herself back. She couldn’t risk him getting caught.Micheal looked around to make sure no one was close by. He opened his car and got in, signaling her to do the same.“I can’t risk being seen with you. It would raise suspicion for sure.”“Where have you been Son? And what did you do to your face? Why do you look like this?”“
