“What can I do for you?” Alphonse asked as soon as the young man sat down in his study.“We have a lot to discuss. I mean I have been meaning to discuss with you for a long time but I am afraid my mother and brother have ruined that peaceful negotiation already” Harry said and Alphonse nodded once before sitting down.The young man had been polite with him since he arrived and Alphonse was trying to be civilized with him.“First off, I would like to apologize for the rash behavior you witnessed from my mother and my brother. I heard what they did and I am not impressed to say the least.” Harry said with a hand to his chest and Alphonse wondered what the man had up his sleeves. “My sincerest apologies” Harry added again and Alphonse nodded again.“Okay. I think that apology should be coming from you mother and your brother, but it’s thoughtful for you to be here on their behalf. Mr Harry, let us approach your reason for being here, you stopped me from having breakfast with my family an
Alphonse threaded carefully and barefooted as not a make a sound as be descended the stairs towards his study.A figure came out of nowhere with a shotgun and Alphosne pointed his gun at the person, finger on trigger.He was in defence mode and would not hesitate in shooting because his family was in the house and he had everything to loose at the moment.Turns out it was Peter."Fuck! Peter, I almost blew your brains off!", Alphonse whisper exclaimed."I'm sorry, I was heading to your room. The security guards are passed out. Sleeping gas" Peter told Alphonse."Interesting" Alphosne said, even though his heart was thundering in its rib cage.The situation was not in any way interesting at all."Charlotte is in my room. Where is my mum?" Alphonse asked"I didn't want to wake her, so I locked the door from outside" Peter informed him and Alphonse nodded.“Where is he?” Alphosne inquired about the intruder.“In the study I believe” Peter replied him and both men advanced towards the doo
“Sir, he will see you now” a prison warden informed Alphonse, and he gave a curt nod before standing up and following the warden.They walked to the receiving area and Paul sat down handcuffed in a chair still in his clothes from the night before.As Paul saw him he sat straighter.The warden motioned for the empty seat for Alphonse, and he took the seat with a little “Thank You”.Paul fiddled with his fingers and looked away.“Are you here to laugh in my face and tell me I’m a thieving piece of shit?” Paul asked.“Uh…. Not yet. But I might, it depends on how this conversation goes. So I’ll save it for later” Alphonse said, gritting his teeth in annoyance.This man went into his house with a loaded gun to steal with his family present.What if it was someone else who approached him in the study?Maybe Charlotte or his mother, Hannah.If Paul had shot anyone he would have gotten away free.“Why are you here? Laugh in my face and leave quickly. My mother is coming to post bail soon”, Pa
Alphonse breathed slowly and in pain as he took his pain medication and stuffed the bottle back in his pocket.Today he was visiting his company, after a long while.After the accident which had him bed ridden for a few days, his mother had forced him to stay at him for two weeks.He would have refused and got back to work, but him being in a cast made him mother still stay with him and not go back to meet Cornelius hall which was a win for him and Charlotte was giving him her utmost attention and taking care of him properly.The other day she had breakfast with him, played scrabble with him and stayed in his room to read to him after he complained of his hand.All these made Alphonse not utter another word about going to work.The hit and run driver was still unable to be identified as the CCTV camera in the parking lot was faulty, so they were still on the hunt for the person.Ursula had called for help and he was immediately taken to the hospital where he woke up to his crying moth
Knock knockAlphonse raised his head from the pile of papers he was going through to see Harry at the door."Harry. Come in please" Alphonse urged him inside the study.Harry looked a little bit out of place and nervous which Alphonse noticed, and with a smile , a quick nod and pursed lips Harry entered the study and took his seat."What's good? What can I do for you?" Alphosne asked and took his attention off the papers to focus on Harry.“I need to talk to you about Vivian Robinson" Harry started and Alphonse raised a surprised brow before taking off his reading glasses to listen to what Harry had to say.“Okay” he nodded. "What about?" Alphonse asked"Knowing your history with her I don't know how this will settle with you. And seeing that you and her are not on good terms" Harry said and Alphonse laughed lowly a little."Just get to it Harry, I have no problem with Vivian. We were married once and we divorced. It's that simple and not an object of discussion" Alphonse said and Har
“Vivian works with you now?” Peter asked Alphonse as he helped button up his shirt. “How come?”Alphonse grunted in pain as he tries to move his hand a bit.“Harry asked for a position for her” he said readjusting the sling for his hand."How do you want this to work?" Peter asked. "She still loathes you for taking the company from her father" "All she knew is I bought the company, she does not know if I own shares or own the company completely down to the janitors office" Alphonse said."So what do you want to do? What position is she taking and what position is Harry taking. By the ways, you do know you have created an Avenue for them to screw themselves around in the office like rabbits" Peter said after setting the last button and stepping back.“To answer your first question, I'm the manager” Alphonse said and Peter's brows furrowed with confusion.“What?” The old man asked “Yes. I told Harry that because I know he's going to turn the whole thing around. You watch and see" Alph
"Hello "Manager". You forgot to iron your suit today?" Vivian threw her regular insult with a snicker as she walked past Alphonse at work today.And like always Alphonse ignored her and checked in.For the past two weeks since she resumed work she had been throwing jabs and insults at him whenever she could.It was not like he had not expected it, he did because he knew Vivian was never the type to change.And the past two weeks Alphonse had not found a reason to smile.Firstly, he convinced Charlotte to take her father to a more comfortable and secure home for the elderly with a private nurse to care for him properly.Next he assigned a driver to her and his mother and a two day routine check of all his vehicles before leaving the house.And then his hunt for Paul began, Ursula had claimed she didn't know where her son was with glee and he knew the way she was smiling she knew.Surprisingly, the Halls have not bothered him since and last he heard Hannah and Cornelius were having "rel
Ursula Edmund invited me to tea" Margaret announced as she came into Vivian's room with two gowns. "The red or the silver?" She asked as she held the two gowns up for Vivian to pick her favorite.Vivian who was eating and pressing her phone raised a bored brow before asking "Interesting and why?" Margaret shrugged "I have no idea and I don not care. Do you know why? It was a personal invitation" Margaret said with a smile."She sent her butler to me with the message can you imagine" she squealed. "I know right" she added before Vivian could say anything."Now the red or silver?" She flashed the gowns in her front again."Silver" Vivian said while chewing."I knew it." Margaret said and walked out of her daughter's room."I hated the red gown anyways." She said as Vivian quickly forgot about her food and towed her mother behind with her phone still in hand back to Margaret's room."It was an anniversary gift from your father. Now that I don't like it, it's useless to me. I either have
