Debby shook her head instead. If there was anything she wanted, it was to part ways with this crazy man she had called a lover. She'd always thought that being with him because she loved him so much could change him but now, she realized how wrong she had been. “Can we just call it quits instead?” Debby asked her boyfriend. In fact, she was not ready to have issues anymore. "Call it quits? Never! Wait and see what I will do to you. And you?” He said and pointed at Alec. “You will definitely hear from me, soon!” He said and walked away. "What do you want to do to me? I am so curious" Alec muttered. Then, Debby's phone beeped. It was a notification from her friends who had wanted to meet with Alec earlier. “Debby, how about you convince your boss to let us use his car for a TikTok video this evening? I promise you that we won't take so long. Remember how you have always told us to find our own path? That is also what we are trying to do!” She sent. “How fake” Debby muttered and
"It's fine. You can go ahead” Debby said. She could not face him at all. She could imagine the kind of irritation on Alec's face at the moment. “Stay away from my sister, you fool. I can't imagine what our mother would say when she sees you!” Julia said and pointed accusing fingers at him. “Of course she would instantly want me to get married to your sister when she notices what kind of money in my account and the kind of car I use” Alec wanted to say but decided against it since he was not interested in being with any women. Women were deceitful. He had thought that Debby would never be like any of them but it turned out that they were all the same. Nothing would ever pressurize him to be with a woman. He thought again. “Sister, that's enough. He's my boss and there is nothing going on between us” She said again, almost tearing up. Debby did not even know how else she wanted to control the situation anymore. It seemed like everything was working against her in the presence of A
"What do you mean by that, sister?” Debby asked as Alec got into his car. “Is that enough proof now?” Alec asked and smiled. Then, Julia realised something. She had just insulted the wrong person all in the name of she trying to correct her sister in other for her not to make the same mistakes that she had also made. “Who are you?” She managed to ask. “Me?” Alec asked and laughed shortly before he stared at the woman. She seemed so energetic earlier while she was trying to correct her sister and now, it seemed like cat got her tongue? “I am Alec Baldwin. Is that enough interrogation? You can continue yelling but it doesn't suit you” Alec said. This car was not ordinary. Then, she walked towards her sister in shock. “Who did you say he was?”“My boss but….”“Huh?”Debby wanted to let her know that he was her boss but there was a limit to it because he was simply a taxi driver and was not the original owner of the hotel even though everyone recognized him as the owner but she se
“Mr Alec, I would like to talk to you about somethings” Harrison had began as soon as Alec walked into the hotel. He'd known that if Alec leaves now, he may not return until dusk and by then, he may have left work. “Go on”“Every year, we hold special days whereby the best employees are granted award and so, we would like to know if that would be holding this week”“How much is it going to cost? It also depends on the annual revenue to get something better for the employee. What do you think?” Alec asked. “Yes sir”“And also, let's declare a work free day for every employee or two employees would be on standby while the rest enjoy free holidays until it is probably rotated”"Sure, sir""And every employee gets to enjoy an increase in their salaries. Don't you think?" "Yes, sir but it was increased about three months ago when the employees complained about their money very small after bank charges" Harrison replied. "A hundred dollars increase would not hurt so much" Alec continue
Meanwhile, Alec's phone would not stop ringing which made him more frustrated because he was starting to feel so much guilt for the pain he must have caused Debby instead. “So, would you like to receive the sum of a thousand dollars?” Alec asked. His employees looked at each other and gasped. Even their salary was not up to that and someone that only caused a scene was about to get that amount. However, in other for what happened to not be made known from the outside world especially those that were willing to buy the hotel before him, he thought of compensating everyone with a thousand dollars each but first, he needed to know what his customer had to say. “You really think that you can bribe me with a thousand dollars. What do you think I am? A glutton? I am in fact calling my lawyers. You have an improper approach towards customers and you need to be taught a lesson!” She said, hoping that she would see more. “Alright. Go ahead” Alec said while the employee gasped. She was
As soon as he had dropped her off, the thought of getting a new phone to befit his status filled him. Then, he thought of all the nicest things he had always wanted to get since he was young but could not including those times where he wanted to spoil Sophia. Then, Alec thought of the cellphone store he wanted to visit in the past where they had chased him away then alongside Sophia. Back then, he just received his salary and thought of spoiling himself just once even this Sophia already called him since she knew the time he always got his salary. He had muted the call that same day and decided that he would call her later in the day to let her know that something came up with the money. He knew that she would flare up but Alec wanted to fulfill his wishes even if it was just once. He heard his colleagues talking about the latest phone then which was an Iphone 15 and how they had used their salary as a collateral while they got the phone. He wanted to try that a
It was when she had talked that Alec knew that everyone would probably misunderstand the situation that he was in. Then, he became so embarrassed that he looked at everyone. No one had the looks of pity on thier face as they all looked at him with contempt. “This was what my security guard had done in the past whereas he owed a debt of about a thousand dollars and he wanted to use the best phone in the world. How outrageous” Someone had said. He had the sudden urge to call his ex-girlfriend in the presence of everyone to let her know her place and know that he was nothing but the breadwinner but Alec knew that none of that was actually necessary. No one would listen to him especially hearing the conversation between he and Sophia. “Get out of this place and try other places if you are not willing to be honest” The sales attendant had said harshly but how could he also go back to work, not feeling good but empty because he couldn't afford what others could? It then made him wond
Alec walked into the store but unlike then, everyone seemed too busy with a lot of orders and just like a flash, only few people remained. Alec looked around the stores for a while and saw that not much had changed since the last time he was driven out like a chicken waiting to be slaughtered. He then walked up to the sales attendants who seemed like they were processing a lot of payments. “Excuse me, would you like to show me where the first generation section is? I would like to get a good gadget to befit me" He said and stared at his phone. If he could remember correctly, that phone was nine years old. That was how poor he really was! First generation stores was not an easy place to shop and most customers preferred to come in the middle of the night and that was because most of these men loved to get women what they wanted because they wanted to have their way with them in the middle of the night and so, Alec was weird when he asked for the first generation store. At th
“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
