"Silas has just two options, pay every dime I used in building that mine that exploded, or he will spend the rest of his life in jail," Dominic cut her off.Selena understood right away how worse the situation had turned into, and with her fiancé's anger, he wouldn't let Silas go scot-free. She was sure Silas won't be able to pay that amount of money either, even in the next ten years. With the way things have escalated, they would have no choice but to make the wedding preparations be on hold.Camara was sending her text messages even while she was on call, begging her to convince her husband to do something about it. She wouldn't be able to bear Silas's misfortune of blowing up a billionaire's mine to affect her dream wedding.Looking at her sister with sad eyes, she felt moved. "What if you allow him to pay in installments because of their situation? Or can anything else be done?" She asked with a low voice. As expected, Dominic hung up on her in anger.Dominic walked over to the pl
The amount of calls that Selena received during both men's time in jail was so alarming that she almost had to put up a disclaimer. She wasn't the one that they should appeal to. They had wronged the General and all they had to do was to make sure that they apologized properly.Having to deal with certain people who thought that they could do whatever they pleased and just leave made things very hard for her to process.If only they could be very contrite, then she would also feel remorseful for them.It didn't also help that Camara was just a mess after the incident which she frowned heavily upon because it didn't make any sense to her. If it were reversed, she would have divorced that swindle of a man. Oh, they hadn't gotten married. She would have called off the wedding but sadly that lady was joined to this man hook, line and sinker and that was why he was acting the way he did because he knew that there was someone who was willing t worry her pretty head over a man who wasn't wor
With the myriad of things that were happening in the Alexiou family, Dominic was able to easily navigate through it. Their marriage which had happened was not going to end anytime soon though. He also had other focus because he needed to trash out the few people that threatened to pose as a disturbance to him so at the end of the day, he finally decided that he would get to the bottom of the issue.Fast forward to the next day, he and Selena were on the porch waiting to see what was happening at least in the environment. They didn't have neighbors though so they were busy enjoying the scenery."I was talking to my sister last night and she sounded highly remorseful. I don't know what the problem is though." Selena informed Dominic.He stopped typing on his laptop to stare at her. He would rather she didn't tell him anything about her but didn't just want to make her sad. At this point, there were various things that were going to stop her from telling him about them, which included h
Selena and Dominic stepped into work together the next day with their hands locked together. It was their first official welcome party into the office so a few members of staff gathered at the reception to welcome them. A few balloons were popped and some bottles of champagne too. It was almost a small work party.Dominic didn't expect them to do that for him but he was glad nonetheless. "Thank you everyone for helping with this preparation.""I really appreciate it."They chatted for a few minutes before finally allowing everyone to go back to their various departments. Dominic walks straight to his office. The investors were supposed to be here before twelve p.m. That would have given the cleaners enough time to be able to do all that they should do before their arrival.Selena plopped down on the chair and smiled. Life was good, everything was going according to plan and she couldn't help but be grateful. There was something else that she was trying to do, which was to brush up her
At the end of the presentation, the investors began to clap Selena and Dominic was busy smiling. He loved the fact that she was ready to give her all yi the presentation and was finally able to convince his clients without any atom of doubt that they needed to invest in their company. It was wonderful seeing something like this after a long period of time. "I think we can proceed to the next thing on the line which is none other than having to make sure that we sign the deeds. That's the issue."She stared at him and was happy at the proud look that adorned his face. If anyone still had any bias toward them it was probably because they just decided to have a problem with her. Her position was solidified in the company.Marcel waited till the investors had finished signing all the papers before lifting her up and spinning her around. "What the hell?!" Dominic's voice boomed throughout the room like thunder. Marcel smirked while Selena smacked his head upside. Why would he love peace
Marcel felt challenged by the words as he walked out of the house and there was no problem whatsoever. All that would have happened was already sorted out and he was only waiting till he got a better job before he was able to come back.Truth be told, there was a reason that this wasn't working out. He didn't want to work for anyone because he hated being bossed around, so instead of him working for anybody at this point, he would rather invest that time and energy in working for someone else. That way he would have rest and would be able to do whatever was expected of him. Selena walked in with a smile on her face and was waiting to see how Dominic was going to act when he finally had the chance and time to inspect what had been going on in the office behind his back. "I saw Marcel leaving hurriedly, I hope that you didn't get into a spat?" She asked and he shook his head with a small smile on his face. "Okay... so are you guys okay?" She asked him and he nodded happily. There was
Dominic and Selena stared at the man before them because he was acting very seriously. It was as if he knew the reason he was here already and there was nothing that anybody could say that would deter him from doing what he should at least at the moment. There was a reason he was staring at Magnus.The person had the same tone of words and it was almost as if he was talking to his twin. "This is where Marcel comes in. Come inside," he invited Magnus before staring at the message again. He would rebuke him inside the room at least that was better than openly where everyone could see and know what was happening. Magnus stared at him in half surprise while he also glared at him wondering why he was acting like a spineless coward. "Do you think that I'm joking?" Dominic asked. There was a reason that Magnus was reticent. Who knew what Dominic had in store for him because of the way he was constituting a nuisance? Dominic walked in first leaving the door open for him to decide if he wan
After watching everything that had been happening at least for the greater part of the day, Dominic finally decided that he was going to do the needful which was making sure that Todd was released but also refunding his entire money. "Now that you've heard what your beloved has said. I think you can see that without doubt you need to refund my money. You're automatically sacked and have lost the relationship at the same time." He replied and Todd looked down, guilt weighing him."I don't know what I was thinking, the problem is that I can't recover the money at the moment because there was a problem. I have to actually see the business through before I can claim the benefits. I'm sorry sir. I promise that I will get it back. I just need to be out there." Dominic considered Todd. He just saw an overly ambitious young man. It wasn't as though starting one's company was bad but the way he went about it didn't make it honorable. He only pitied Emily who had finally thought that life was
