Mrs. Darius stood up and left his office, she was paranoid, and she hated Alex the more, but she couldn't do anything. Mr. Xavier had a heart of stone, he wasn't ready to listen to any complaints about his grandson, Alex"That good-for-nothing church rat thinks that he can walk into my son's life and take what rightfully belongs to him," She said as she made her way out of the building. She entered into her car and drove to her friend's place, she didn't want to think about Alex too much"That useless brat can't give me sleepless nights," Mrs. Darius saidHer car came to a halt in a big mansion, Mrs. Darius came to have a cool and fun time with her friend, Mabel."Welcome Ma, I would go and let my madam know that you are here," A short pale looking maid said"Ok, please do so," Mrs. Darius said and sat down on the couch"Hey, you remembered me today," Mabel said, Mabel is a single mother, she has two children, a boy, and a girl. Mabel divorced her husband two years ago, and she got ha
Alex returned to his office, they were new files resting on his desk. Alex picked up the telephone and dialed his secretary's number"Linda! Get into my office" Alex said and immediately dropped the call."Come in," He said, holding the new files he met on his table"What's with these new documents, you didn't mention it," Alex said, this was his first time working in an office and to wrap it up, he's working here not as a regular staff but as the CEO"Sir, these are the documents of the proposal Mr. Munsch made," Linda said"Ok!" He said, still not satisfied with her answer"Mr. Xavier said that I should drop it on your table" He said that when you're done reading it, you can sign it and if there's something you think is unusual in the document you shouldn't sign it, you can bring it to him so that he can see it," Linda said"Ok but why do I have to sign it," Alex asked, he hadn't signed any documents, so he was confused. "Why didn't my grandfather sign it, is he not the one that s
"You can't tell me not to go inside that office," James told Linda and rushed to open the door"But sir," Linda said, trying to stop him, but James refused to listen. He pushed the door only to see Alex inside the office with Mr. Kim"Welcome brother!" Alex said with a crooked smile. He made James walk to his office."You brat..." James said, ignoring Mr. Kim's presence in the room. He was furious"Do you think you can come into my life and ruin it, you think you can take what rightfully belongs to me?" He said"What makes you think I took what rightfully belongs to you, is Xavier's business and wealth rightfully yours?" Alex asked calmly, he wanted to piss James off so bad"Yes!" James said"Then why did grandpa make me his heir, are you trying to say that grandpa doesn't know what he's doing," Alex said. He would have gone to the sixth floor and put James in his place if he tried to humiliate him, but he didn't want James to lose rights to Xavier's business and also lose his respect
After crying for hours, she was devastated. She didn't want to go back to that house where she can't breathe well, the air there suffocates her, and now she's going back to that house where her opinions don't matter at all because she doesn't have anywhere else to go.The day she dreads the most is the day her mother will wake up one morning and decide to marry her out"I hope for that day not to come," She thought as she wiped the tears away from her eyes and drove home Mrs. Darius was having a good time at her friend's place, she was feeling a lot better, but the thought of Alex suddenly came back"Mabel, that boy troubles me and I want to take him out of the picture, I want him to meet his demise" Mrs. Darius said full of determination"I agree, if he stresses you this much then he has to go," Mabel said"How about you offer him a lot of money to run away, to leave your family's life," Mabel asked"Do you think that he's a fool, he's smart, and he's also a graduate, he wouldn't
None of those plans worked, all their plans went down the sewer."Mom, what are you talking about, what new plan" James inquired"I want to kidnap Alex" Mrs. Darius whispered"What?" James said surprised"I want to end his life since he is this stubborn," Mrs. Darius said. Although James felt uneasy with the idea, he later agreed after remembering how Alex behaved today"Okay, but how can we do that without getting caught, I hate to admit this, but Alex is the heir and Mr. Xavier wouldn't let anything happen to him," James said"He's the temporary heir, my son, you're the true heir," Mrs. Darius said "James, I want us to act nice, Abigail doesn't know about this and I don't want her to know. Your sister doesn't know what life looks like, she thinks that it's just like a bed of roses. I made her live a life full of milk and honey, and I have no intention of taking it away from her. I want to keep it that way" Mrs. Darius said"I know, Mother, I know that you are doing all these things
Mr. Kim wasn't pleased with her presence, he could already sense trouble."Alex” Mrs. Darius said immediately she spotted Alex coming down from his car"How are you dear child" Mrs. Darius inquired. Mr. Kim could sense that something was wrong."Is she drunk?" He thought. Alex was too surprised to speak"Alex, we started on the wrong foot, you came into our life for good, but I didn't realize that," Mrs. Darius said"I hope you can forgive me and my family for what we did, for the hated we showed you" Mrs. Darius begged"Ma'am, I hold no grudge against you, I want good for all of us," Alex said, he was glad that Mrs. Darius had seen her wrong, but he wasn't fully convinced that she was sincere. He could sense the insincerity in her tongue, but he ignored it."Oh, Alex, I feel so bad, and I regret all that I've done to you. You have such a kind heart" Mrs. Darius said and smirked inwardly"This boy is such a fool, he is easily deceived," She thought"Mrs. Darius, we are a family, and w
The door was swang open by one of the maid.They entered the house only to see the whole of Darius's family. Earlier today after Mrs. Darius invited Alex and Mr. Kim. She came home to meet her husband waiting for her in the sitting room after hearing from the maids that she asked them to cook different food for dinner. "Welcome darling!" She said immediately she spotted him"You don't look happy, did they accept the business proposal," Mrs. Darius asked"Yes, they did," Mr. Darius said"That's goodnews, but why do you look angry?" Mrs. Darius inquired"Abigail told me that you're inviting Alex over for dinner, what's your motive," Mr. Darius asked"Darling please come let's go upstairs so that you can freshen up," She said, but Mr. Darius refused, he demanded an answer before anything"Darling, if you want to kill your enemy, you can't succeed in killing them while you guys are still enemies but when you are friends," Mrs. Darius said, looking around to make sure no one hears but he
Giggles and voices could be heard from the dining table, the Xavier family and the Darius family were having a good time. Mrs. Darius and her family played their role and it was so convincing that Mr. Kim somehow felt at ease"This is exactly the way Mrs. Darius and her family behave to Grandpa before Alex came into the picture," He thought. Logically, they all have to come together as one family because of their status but Daruis family wouldn't accept the fact that Alex is the heir to all of Mr. Xavier's wealth"Look at us!" Mrs. Darius added with a wide smile on her face"We look so happy as a family" Mr. Darius added. Abigail was the only person in the Darius family that didn't know about their evil plot. Abigail countlessly turned to peep Alex and Alex did the same. Abigail was falling for Alex's charm but Alex didn't feel the same way for her, he was trying to figure out whether she was feeling better or not"How are you feeling, Abigail” Alex asked anticipating a positive reply
