The chatters of the glass was from Tracy who had been arguing with James. After the disappointing announcement from Mr. Fred, she was angry and told James they should leave.But James refused to go with him, saying that she should leave alone.Tracy knew James was doing that because of Olivia, his eyes were all on her since she arrived. Tracy insisted on him following her. James was frustrated by her and angrily pushed her away. She flipped and hit one of the servers with a glass of wine. The wine fell from her hand and spilled while the glass shattered on the floor.Everyone was startled as they stared at them."You should have just left me alone, you this bitch!"James hauled her. Tracy couldn't believe James was behaving this way just for Olivia.Then, A tiny long voice shrieked "what have you done you all, are you all crazy", it was a slim lady, wearing a white gown and the wine had just spilled all over her dress.Then, a man's voice chimed in, "shag! My princess, who dare did th
Alexander still holding George's hand up in the air, "I think it's okay, anything more than this would be assault". George rolled his wrist away from him, "Who are you, what do you think you are to intervene, just move out of the way while I am still nice"."This is an abuse, stop here, and they will certainly pay for the dress", Alexander told him. George glared at him, "I want to see you have some gut, and I'm taking them out if you!" He growled as he threw a sudden punch at Alexander, who effortlessly weaved it.George came again, this time Alexander weaved it and counterattacked with a swift punch, catching George off guard. Alexander quickly followed up with a judo throw, sending George crashing to the ground.George struggled to his feet, his face red with rage, and charged at Alexander again. But Alexander was ready, and with a swift motion, he knocked George off his feet once more.George lay on the ground, dazed and defeated, his anger and humiliation evident on his face as e
Elena was terrified, Alexander was clearly outnumbered, There is absolutely no way he was going to fight them."You said you called your father! Why are they here yet", she screamed at Micheal who shrugged, "I don't know, mayne they were on their way".Elena was petrified, she uttered, "I should go", she wanted to open the car but Michael caught her in her wrist."What do you think you are doing, what are you going to change there, nothing!You will just be a burden, I am sure they will find a way", Micheal told her.Meanwhile, Olivia whispered to Alexander, " I don't think the general is really coming, we should just escape"."Okay, we take the left route, although they would double cross us, I would take them away, Don't ever Look back, just run away", Alexander told her."Okay understand", she said.Just then, George motioned at his thugs, "What are you waiting for, beat them to pulp, I don't care if they die!".Alexander made a fleeting glance at her as they both took the left ro
Elena was fuming and breathed very hard, " How could he be so that sturnorn, he had changed alot for the short time".Micheal took her head gently, "That should be the least of your worries, you should go home now and prepare yourself for tomorrow".Elena nodded as they also legtg the scene.*****(The next morning)."Dad!, You lied to me you assure me that the president will choose me?, I was embarrassed!"Tracy shrieked at her dad. The family members were all in the room as Tracy stood at the middle her eyes blazing of fire.Mr. Harrington tried to calm her down, "you should calm down, I will talk with the Mr. Fred""For what dad?, What are you going to tell him to change ? That's almost impossible, now Elena will crawl over me, and look down on me", she cried out."NOW, can you see you make a wrong decision, that's what you get for making a girl the CEO of a company, and moreover, when Elena is my younger sister", Joel, the first born of the Harrington family was counted as waste an
Chapter 39 Elena's car was filled with steam and her head was bleeding as she knocked her head against the steering. Everything was not clear at first and couldn't even make out what was happening. She coughed and opened the car then staggeredly came out of it. Then, that's when he could make out all what was going on!. She frowned her face, how could two cars lose their head and rammed at her like that. She dated her ruined car, crashed and can never be used. Just then, the driver from the front came out, it was a slender man with a lot of curly hair, "Hello ma, I'm sorry for that… I… my brake failed, and___". Elena , "why are you in front of me in the first place, like you intentionally rammed at me!". "No ma, that's not the case… Is the gear, yit broke_,The man stated, his eyes full of guilt.

Chapter 40Elena arrived at the company as she rushed out of the cab and sprinted inside the company. When she reached Inside, she was surprised to see people in lines, probably waiting for her. They were surely the staff she would be working with. Mr. Fred stepped out of them, his face looked stern as there were sequences of lines in his forehead."I… I can explain… I don't mean to come late, I…".She was interrupted by Mr. Fred as he clapped at her while others of the staff followed. She was lost and confused as watched the clap continue for some minutes before frying down.Mr. Fred stepped forward smiling at her, "You are the CEO, you don't owe anyone an explanation, you should learn about that, don't apologise, let them know who the boss is, and that is the only way you can successfully lead the company".Elena smiled, her face was full of excitement and she didn't even know the word for her gratitude, shw bowed instead, "Thanks sir. I will carry out all of my best to make the c
Chapter 41James was shattered, and everything he had was going in the drain just in a day, he was going bankrupt. He didn't know what to do, so he decided to meet with his father who has earned him. Not to come for him anytime he has issues. His father gave him the company and has always warned him every time to stay away from illegal activities, but he would never listen "So, what are you telling me? What should I do?'' His father sternly hauled him. He immediately went on his knees."Father, please… I just do something before it's too late", he pleaded so desperately."I warned you times without number to eaty away from illegal activities, now you are here to spoil my reputation, there is nothing I can do, absolutely nothing!", He yelled at him."So, you will just watch me get ruined".His Father's stern gaze pierced through James as he stood before him."What are you telling me? You getting ruined is none of my business so don't drag me into it?"."Father, you know people, you h
Chapter 42James stood before the towering glass facade of the swiss empire company, his hands trembling slightly as he clutched his fist tightly. This was the only way he could revive his career. All he had to do was meet with the secret CEO of the company, and plead if he offended him."Yeah, I just have to desperately beg them", he uttered his heart pounding louder in his chest. As he reached the automatic doors. And when the door fling opened, he met Alexander coming out of the company.Alexander just Ignored him, but James won't let him be."Wondering what you are doing here! After you have been sacked, or are you here to plead again".Alexander stopped and turned back to him, "why must you talk anytime you see me, are you rhat desperate or you just want to vent your dying company anger at me".James fronwed, truly he was very angry and wanted someone to vent his anger on."My company is not dying!".Alexander scoffed, his hand dipped in his pocket, "it really is, it is an open
Elena was shocked as she saw Mandera with a swollen stomach. She uttered, “Mandera…”Mandera forced a smile. “Elena,” she murmured. At that moment, Elena opened the door wide for her.Mandera stepped inside, and Alexander's eyes widened in surprise. “Hey, Mandera. Long time. What are you doing here?”Mandera gently rubbed her stomach. “I’m here because of this. I’m going to have a baby… your baby,” she said simply.Alexander froze, processing her words. He glanced at Elena, who stood still for a moment, her expression unreadable. Then, she scoffed. “Wow… really?”Natalie, standing nearby, chimed in with raised eyebrows, “You’re pregnant with his baby?”Mandera gulped, her eyes darting nervously between them. “I know… I know you didn’t expect this. It was a mistake. I just wanted to let you know. I can... abort it if that’s what you want.”Elena’s eyes darkened, her jaw clenched. “You dare not! You are not aborting *our* baby.”Mandera and Alexander were taken aback, exchanging confuse
Alexander was about to kiss Elena in the office when the door suddenly opened, and Olivia walked in.They both froze, eyes wide, as Olivia smirked, a baby cradled in her arms. “Wow, did I spoil the fun? Well, here I am!”Alexander’s expression darkened, his brows furrowing. “What are you doing here?”Olivia raised an eyebrow, her lips curling slightly. “What do you think? I'm here for our baby. You didn’t even show up when I was suffering through pregnancy sickness. But guess what? I survived. I’m here, and so is your child.”Alexander scoffed, narrowing his eyes. “Olivia, what are you playing at this time? I know that’s not my child. I’m not responsible for the pregnancy, and now you show up, out of nowhere, claiming the kid is mine?”Her smile faltered for a moment before she composed herself. “Yes, he *is* yours. I left back then because I was embarrassed, not because he isn’t your child. Here’s the DNA test,” she said, pulling a document from her bag and extending it toward him.A
Elena walked out of the room when convoys of cars packed in front of her, she was startled and surprised as she stepped back, she wondered what they were here for, her son Charles was beside her, she held him closer. The cars stopped, and a group of tall, imposing men in black suits stepped out, forming a semi-circle around her. Elena's grip on Charles tightened as she wondered what was happening.One of the men, seemingly the leader, bowed his head in front of her. "Mrs. Elena, please come with us," he said in a deep, commanding voice.Elena frowned, "what!, What's happening, why, who are you people?"."Sorry for the sudden appearance, we are from the swiss empire, your husband's company, your presence is needed in the company"."Why, and… where is Alexander, why is my presence needed", she simultaneously asked."Ma'am, boss…. Was involved in an accident two weeks ago, his car rolled inside the river and since then, he hasn't been seen".Elena's eyes widened in horror as she process
"Why are you so shocked, are you not the wine in the video?, I don't know you are this horrible, how could you kill someone, uh!", Tracy sneered at him.Alexander couldn't help but laugh, he was just helping mike that day. "Look, you are even laughing, I know you are just a mere animal, you deserve to root in jail", she said.Alexander faced her and scoffed, "You are the one that caused all this, you and your stupid boyfriend lied on me! And sent me to prison, stop pretending like you are a saint!", He then turned to mr. Harington, "I am still coming to get the answers!, You animals!", He sneered and dashed out. Tracy folded her hand and scoffed, then that time her phone rang.It was from Micheal, "What could that fool be calling for", she said and picked it up "Let's meet", Michael told her.*****Alexander stormed at Mr. Alfred house, the video has been already circulating and Mr. Alfred has called for the meeting, as he entered Vivienne scoffed, "The murder Is here".ALEXANDER ig
As the doctor handed Elena the envelope containing the DNA test results, Elena’s hands trembled as she accepted the envelope. She had been dreading this moment for weeks, afraid of what the results might reveal. Her heart raced as she hesitated, unsure if she wanted to know the truth. It should be Alexander, no one else.She walked out of the office then stopped halfway.With a deep breath, Kate slowly opened the envelope and pulled out the results. Her eyes scanned the page, her heart sinking with each passing moment. Tears welled up as she saw the words. Charles was 0.009 percent Alexander's child. “How… how could that be possible”, she mumbled, she was lost because she had never in her life sex with anyone except Alexander. Elena's eyes blurred as she stumbled out of the hospital, the results clutched in her hand. The bright sunlight seemed to mock her, and the bustling streets felt like a cruel joke. She couldn't breathe, couldn't think. The numbers on the page haunted her: 0.
After a peaceful two weeks, while ldyia was recovering from the injury of the incident, she didn't ehar at all from Alexander. After she recovered, she walked to his company and waited for him, she sat IN her cat for many hours waiting for him to come out. She waited foe the whole day, and it wad evening alrayd, as she aabout to leave, them Alexander walked outside from the company, she immediately dashed down and rushed towards him before he entered his car."Alexander",she called his name.Alexander was shocked to see her, and immediately trued to ignored her as he wanted to ener Gus cr, but lydia held his hand.He hollered at her,"Are you that stupid, what the hell are you looking for here, aren't you afraid of being killed"."I just want to see you, and we should faln things out", Lydia muttered.ALEXANDER chuckled, "What, are you really joking right now or you really mean it, what the hell are you saying, you witnessed a Near death experience some weeks ago, and you came back t
The leader’s cruel smile widened as he turned to his soldiers. “Get ready to show them what real pain feels like,” he commanded. The soldiers, eager to follow orders, advanced toward Alexander, Elena, Stiles, and Tracy, their faces masked with grim determination.Just as they were about to inflict their brutality, the leader’s phone rang. Annoyed, he answered the call with a snarl. After a few terse exchanges, his expression shifted to one of shock and then nervousness.“Sir,” one of his subordinates said from the other end, “our highest leader from Italy has just arrived.”The leader’s face went pale. “What? I didn’t get any notice that he was coming.”The subordinate’s voice was urgent. “He’s here, and he’s asking for you immediately outside”The leader’s gaze flicked nervously to the captives. He took a deep breath, trying to regain his composure. “Fine,” he snapped. “You lot are lucky. This isn’t over, not by a long shot.” He stormed out of the basement, leaving the soldiers behi
The fight broke out in an instant. Despite being outnumbered, Alexander, Elena, Stiles, and Tracy fought fiercely. Alexander landed quick, powerful punches, while Elena moved with precision, taking down anyone who got close. Stiles held his own, fending off multiple attackers.Tracy, dodging blows with exaggerated movements, ducked under a swing and kicked a thug in the knee. "Dance off, anyone?" she quipped, twirling dramatically, making even Stiles groan mid-fight. Despite the odds, the four quickly gained the upper hand. The gang members fell one by one, and the leader, frustrated, spat, “This isn’t over,” before retreating with his remaining men.Breathing hard but victorious, Tracy threw up her arms. "Told you I could fight... with style!”.Just as Tracy finished her triumphant declaration, the ground began to tremble. A loud rumble filled the air, and the four turned to see a tank rolling into view, its machine gun swiveling toward them. Alexander clenched his fists, scanning
Elena and Alexander were in the room with Kate and Stiles. Each of them was filled with happiness; they had finally completed their mission and left behind everything that had been holding them back. The air was light, and laughter echoed as they shared the relief of their success.In two weeks, Charles would finish elementary school, marking the beginning of a new chapter. With that milestone, Alexander and Elena had already planned their next step: travelling and beginning a new life together, free from the past. They could almost taste the adventure and fresh start that awaited them beyond the horizon.They surrounded themselves with drinks, relaxing comfortably in the cosy room. The warm glow of the setting sun filtered through the windows, casting soft light on their faces as they sipped from their glasses, the weight of their recent journey finally lifting.Laughter bubbled up between them, the tension of the past weeks melting away. Tracy and Stiles sat off to the side, leanin
