It didn't take up to a few minutes before Alec was finally about to read the contract and have it signed. He was happy because he had not even achieved anything yet and now, he was a major shareholder at TD!Now that he thought about it, should he invest more or just hold on? It would be so nice for him to get an estate or at least a house!But then, he didn't want something that will just not be beneficial for him instead. Then, Christyn cleared her throat. “Thanks for trusting us, Mr Baldwin. By the way, you look handsome in person.” Christyn said while Alec smiled.“I will take that as a compliment” Alec replied. Few minutes after, they had left the hotel while Alec sighed. It wasn't even up to few minutes they came around and now, were leaving. ___“Let's have some fun here, Alice. I heard that this hotel is one of the best in the city.” Kyle said. Kyle was actually one of the best customer of St Louis hotel and he did not hesitate to show it as he opened the hotel room for h
“Oh my goodness. What the hell have you done?” The woman scared out while Adams gasped. If not because of the panic mode that he was, he would have reasoned that he had probably seen the car before but that was not the case.He hurriedly came out of the car in fear and knocked the blinded screen. For a while, the person refused to come out while Adams who seemed to be remorseful for a while now frowned. “I was about to apologize but it seems like you do not need my apology. It's okay” Adams replied. After all, no one will know what happened if he left the scene immediately! Once he gets his percentage of his work done, he will make sure to rent a new car and start afresh!“You have to pay five thousand dollars for the damages. The most important part of my baby is where you have damaged and it's expensive. Three thousand dollars is for maintenance and two thousand dollars is for wasting my time “ The feminine voice stated. “What? Five thousand dollars? Where do you expect me to se
Adams wondered what exactly he should use five dollars for as he screamed in horror. Debby looked at him in shock. Ever since he came around, he seemed to have a lot of issues with himself that she did not understand at all. “Now, what's going on with you again?” Debby asked him. “I just got paid the sum of five dollars after working today” he said in anger. “What? That person must be crazy! Tell me, did you go against the rules that was laid aside for every drivers?” She asked him. He frowned instead. What rules was she talking about?“Why will I ever want to do that? This owner is nothing but a scammer and I think that he needs to be reported! I will stand this. Because the wealthy have a lot of money, they think that they can oppress me?” Adams asked in anger.Debby wondered if she should let Alec know about this. She was sure that he knew the right channels to make sure that her brother got the justice he deserved!“I should set up a live video! How could he do this to me? E
“That's good. I hope you're happy now?” Alec asked casually as he checked his time. “Alec, can you give me time to talk about what happened? I promise you that it will not happen again. I just did not know what happened” She stated. Alec sighed. The only business he had with that family was the fact that he had not gotten the time to teach her father everything he wanted to know about car racing. He wondered if he should do that now that he seemed to have free time. "I am not mad at you. Please let's not talk about it again. I am not sure that we will ever have any business asides your father""Alec, that's harsh. We make up and we forgive each other. What happened to you forgiving me? Besides, you did not tell me you had a girlfriend and so, what's so special in what I said?" She stated. Alec was not ready for all of these. He was not ready to talk to her about anything instead as he sighed. “What's your father's schedule like? I would like to teach him about car racing today.
“What? You gave my precious cheque to some random beggar?” Hannah's father asked in shock. "Do you feel hurt about it? Now, first thing for racing is for you to be determined and....""Hey, I am talking to you! Did you give my money to some beggars so that they can be richer than me?""Why do you care about money so much that you think it should revolve around you alone?" Alec asked in irritation. As far as he was concerned, this man had a lot of investments that even if he dies today and Hannah refuses to work, she will never have to suffer for the rest of her life because the man already worked his ass off. He remembered those times he would go over to Hannah's house and the man will never be willing to help him because the rich shouldn't associate with the poor. "I want to know what exactly you did with that money" “It's my money, not yours. Why should you create a fuss about it?” Alec asked instead. Truth be told, the cheque was still on Alec's desk instead and now, he thoug
“Hey, you should not spend money in that manner. That's really bad. Don't you think so?” Debby asked him in shock while he smiled. “Five thousand dollars means nothing to me” He said and chuckled again. “What? You call five thousand dollars nothing to you? Do you realize that one day your boss will come back?" She asked him. Alec wondered if it was okay for him to tell her the truth about his lifestyle and how he was actually the owner of the hotel and store he claimed not to have. "I know but don't you think that I should enjoy everything while it lasts? I mean, I will not even be able to enjoy it when he's back"He said when it seemed like he was about to contradict himself. She wondered when she would feel comfortable spending such money frequently. Alec wished that she would one day ask him for money and he will shower it on her because he never had the time to do that for any woman he had ever loved. “That's the same money someone is praying for to get her surgery done and
“So, what do you say? Do you want me to be your date for that day?” Alec asked again. “Of course and that's why I'm here after all. My cousin is the reason for all this mess. I understand that he may seem remorseful now” Debby concluded. "Do you want me to punish him?" Alec asked her calmly while Debby looked at him weirdly. This was her cousin they were talking about and even if anything happened between them, it still did not mean that she wanted the matter to be heard of at the authorities unit. Blood was thicker than water after all. By this time, it was already getting so late. Alec still wanted to spend so much time with Debby as he held her hands. It was this time that there were fire works in the sky. “I love this!” She screamed out while he smiled. He was glad that he was able to put a smile on her face and at that moment, it seemed like she looked more beautiful than ever. “Do you want me to order anything? I can get you takeouts also” He asked while she shook her hea
Alec's eyes dimmed instead. He understood this man immediately because he had already misunderstood the kind of person he was. So, just because he was thought to be the manager of St Louis hotel, he was expected to pay so much? What if he was found out to be the owner of the hotel?What should happen by then? Alec wondered and smiled. Debby instead wanted to let them know that he was not the manager of the hotel neither was he the owner as he had always said but since Alec had held her hands, she decided not to say anything instead. “Are you threatening me right now?” Alec asked. “Of course. You're at my mercy now and you are at the liberty to do whatever I ask you to do.” The man asked. Alec smiled. He would play dumb with this man and make sure he faces the consequences of his actions. “I understand. Promise me that you will not tell my boss” Alec said again. “Of course. If you pay me more money”Just then, Alec's phone rang again. Not identifying the caller, he excused himse
“Babe, you can't go. I promise you that I will take care of everything outside.” Debby insisted just as Alec had dressed in an Italian tuxedo suit and had his hair styled perfectly. “I feel like if I do not not go, it will only make me a coward and I do not want that to happen and so, I have decided that I will go’ Alec replied instead. Even though he had today planned out also, the schedule the system had given him to resolve everything that happened was just a day and he could not just throw that into the mud. “At least, hold on for Harrison to call. He's your worker and he will definitely help you resolve everything” Debby said and in the end, he agreed to stay at home. Meanwhile, Debby's phone had been ringing continuously and just as when she had seen it, she was surprised to have missed a call from her grandfather and an unknown contact. “Grandfather called me. I think it has to do with this issue but I promise you that you have nothing to be worried about because I will ma
"Boss, I will come over tomorrow. I need to call some of the stubborn publishing companies” Harrison said. However, Alec scoffed lightly. He knew that this was the time that some of the publishing team would extort him. “If anyone does not want a sum of a thousand dollars to bring down whatever post about me, I suggest that you just let them do whatever they want!” Alec said firmly. “Did you say you will go face the media team?” Debby asked while he nodded and stared into space. He did not expect that the issue he never wanted to involve the cops had escalated and now, everyone thought he's a killer. Yet, he had just a week to make sure that everything was back to normal. “Of course. I should at least tell them something. If I do not say anything, it will only make me nothing but a Killer and I do not….”Debby shook her head. “You shouldn't go! If you do, it will only worsen things. You could get killed. I promise you that whatever you need, I will let you know. How about I run
I'm worried that my business may be put to stop especially now that I am trying to collaborate with some business partners to build schools as expansion of my business” Alec said almost immediately. “I don't understand why all of these are happening. Have you been doing something behind me and…”“Debby, do you trust me?” Alec asked, a bit disappointed at her. She looked at him for a while and exhaled out. Of course she trusted him but it felt like she did not know him anymore. It didn't make sense that a news would just pop up about him and he wouldn't know the source of what happened and yet, it seemed like he was not saying anything about it. “I trust you but I don't know what to believe about this matter” Debby stated while he looked at her. “Few days ago, some set of people were caught on camera and had stolen the important files of some business associates. How could I let it slide? It turned out that they were working for one Eric and I don't understand”At the mention of th
“You've been smiling all day. Is there something you didn't tell me?” Alec asked as he hugged Debby by her wrist while they watched a TV show.“I met someone that's as sweet as you are and when I seemed to be in trouble earlier, he helped me out” She said and smiled as she remembered the scene. Alec chuckled. “He swept you off your feet also? You know I did that also”Debby laughed shortly. However that was not what she meant. She had met Greg earlier at the grocery store earlier after she had an issue with a payment. However, they had talked about her best interest while they laughed it off over the coffee after shopping and now, he wanted to offer her a job.“Just like that?” Alec asked while she nodded and smiled. Somehow, that did not sit right with him but he knew he could not piss her off since she was in her best mood. “Would you rather work with me instead? I can easily promote you as the director and…”“Alec, you have your business at hand while I also have mine. I just w
“Fortunately for us, grandfather is getting better and I was told that he would be on his feet soon. That only means one thing, the party may hold!” Debby said in excitement the moment she entered Alec's mansion. Alec however did not have his mind settled on what she said but her beauty. Every day, it seemed like she was getting more beautiful!“You're cute, do you know that?” He suddenly asked as he swooped her in his arms and gave her a peck while she blushed. However, Alec's phone beeped slightly. Ignoring it and wanting to spend more time with the woman he loved the most, he pecked her again. “I love you so much, Debby. Promise me that you will never leave me even if you find out something terrible about me* Alec said. Debby smiled and looked at him. “Why on earth will I want to leave you? You mean so much to me and I am definitely not leaving you!” She told him. At this moment, his phone would not stop ringing continuously.“Check out your phone”“I just want to spend time
“It's really nice to meet with you, Mr Greg” Alec said and smiled as he shook hands with Greg who would not stop talking randomly. “Ah, yeah. I have always been anticipating meeting you and that was why I decided to make it a surprise visit and moreover, would you like to have a gift?” Greg asked as he brought forward a beautiful bunny while Alec smiled. For some reason, it seemed weird because they were meeting over some business meeting. However, Alec still decided to collect the bag. “Thank you, Mr Greg. Are you perhaps leaving soon? We should still do some business' together because it is evident that you are more of a pro in this industry than I am”Alec concluded. If he was able to meet up with several investors like him, it would make him richer and so, he could take the woman he loved places which wouldn't be a problem for him. {Kill him. I hate seeing my rival with another system and you know this} The dark system said within Greg but Greg smiled. Now was probably not t
Finally, after ten minutes, Helen and the director were able to enter the mansion while she gasped in shock. For a while, she had forgotten that she was with her husband and so, needed to maintain her balance. It made her wonder how handsome the owner of the estate would be if his house was this beautiful. “Darling, be on your knees!” Her husband had said but she was too stunned to kneel. If fact, she was dazed. The fact that this had always been the kind of setting she wanted in a living room got her wondering if it was a god living there. He definitely spent millions of dollars. Few minutes later, Alec walked downstairs coldly while he held a cup of coffee, his gaze fixed on the woman who had her eyes fixed on the scenery of the living room while her husband tried to control her. “Enjoying the view?” He asked suddenly while they both looked at him. He could see the shock laced on their face while they gasped. “Alec, what are you doing here?” Helen asked in surprise. “Didn't yo
“Let's just get this done if you know you want to hold the party” Helen's husband said as they passed through a short path and was finally able to get Alec's mansion correctly. “Wow. His mansion is way bigger than ours. Is that why he seemed so crazy earlier?” Helen said and scuffed while her husband tapped her. You definitely want to spend the rest of the day here, in cold since you don't want to cooperate. “What do you mean by that? Are you not both here because we want to see him?” She asked. Just then, they walked up to some armed guards while Helen stared at the guards. Somehow, this was the kind of life she also wished for but when she could not even get that kind of lifestyle, she decided to settle for plan B. At that moment, the snow had started to make the weather become so unbearable while Helen embraced herself.“We want to see your boss. He is expecting us”Meanwhile, in his room, Alec, dressed in his bathrobe stared at the tv screen that was connected to what was goi
“We cancelled the order. Can we have our money back?” Helen said in panic as she checked her phone again only to see that her friends were already at the estate. "Hey, I can't just let you make me be on the loss part. This is how I feed my family!" The baker yelled but the couple did not give her a listening hear instead. “Tom, what do I do?” She asked in panic as an incoming call came in. Have you tried speaking with the estate owner? I can't go down like this”She said again. “What about me? What should I do to the cake you ordered? Do you realize that I am here at all?"“Just hand over our money! We are trying to save for a better apartment and we need money. Please do whatever you can to help us and we promise you that we will pay back in whatever way” Helen said in desperation. "You should have thought about that before you ordered for cake. If you want me to hand over the money, you will go to the cops with me. Whosoever wins has the money and it's obviously me because you
