"We all deserve to be loved and treated equally."
Alice said and turned away to his colleagues who also came for the President's grand party. People were leaving, and others were having their last talk with the president before they left. Their happiness and laughter meant a lot, and that was the reason Alice felt like having her time again with Dave. "I hope you're enjoying everything about the president's party."Alice said to her colleagues Yes, it's a blast! and I can't wait to get more of this."One lady said "Alice,I can sense how happy you are from the look on your face. Tell me, baby girl,do you have something to do with that man they call the president's son". Shhhhhh, keep quiet, Judith; that shouldn't be said here; he's not yet revealed, nor is the president's son, and that will be done at the right time." Alice spoke with caution. "Leave those jokes aside. Are you even serious? How can a president hide his own son if he's truly the heir and the father is proud of him?" "I heard he's the ex-husband of Madam Charlotte's daughter, Amelia. He is very poor, and that led to a breakup." Another person also interrupted. "That's not true ,why are you guys acting this way?" Alice said. "Let us speak the truth; he's indeed a poor man, and I won't stop saying this ".Judith retorted. "What makes you think he's poor, and why are you still having that perception? "Perhaps we are all equal". "Shut up! He's not equal like us, Alice; don't ever say that again." Judith said this and continued to sip his drink. " "I'm waiting for you to see the truth about Dave".Alice continued her conversation with her friends. ***********A random man caught the attention of the guests. He introduced himself as Alexander Cromwell, a name that carried an air of mystery and intrigue. Dressed in an impeccably tailored suit, his piercing eyes glinted with an otherworldly intensity. Whispers of his presence circulated among the attendees, like a gust of wind carrying tales of a formidable force. "It's quite unfortunate that everyone barely sees my presence here today."He said it with a wicked laugh and brushed his hands through his beard. Alexander Cromwell was known to be a man of immense wealth; his riches were built upon a vast empire that spanned continents. But there was something more to him—something that inspired both awe and fear. "I guess it's time I show him who I am today" . He said, thinking how it was necessary for Dave to know that he's wealthy and also fighting to be known as the most wealthy man; not even the president can compare himself. As Alexander mingled with the crowd, his voice dripped with a devilish charm. He regaled those around him with stories of his exploits, his adventures in far-flung lands, and the power he wielded over those who dared to cross his path. His words held a magnetic allure, drawing people into his web of intrigue."I'm after Master Dave,Master Dave! "H-a-h-a-hahaha,that's so funny. Why am I even addressing him as Master Dave?" He said that, and the few people that stood where he was turned to look at him in a surprised way. The guests hung on his every word, a mix of fascination and trepidation evident in their eyes. Some were drawn to the allure of his wealth and power, while others couldn't help but feel a sense of unease in his presence. Whispers of his darker side echoed through the crowd, telling tales of those who had dared to challenge him and paid a heavy price. "Who's he?. "And what does he want from Master Dave?". One of the attendees said it rhetorically. Alexander Cromwell raised his glass in a toast, his voice cutting through the murmurs of the room. His devilish smile widened, sending a shiver down the spines of those present. "To the game of life," he proclaimed, his words laced with an intoxicating blend of menace and excitement. As the lights dimmed and the guests dispersed, the legend of Alexander Cromwell lingered in their minds. Alexander's eyes darted around the room, scanning the faces and occasionally fixing upon someone with an intensity that sent shivers down their spines. It was as if he could see through their facades, peering into their souls with a knowing smirk. Those who had crossed paths with Alexander Cromwell spoke of encounters that left them trembling. "Where's Dave?" Talk to me, people; he's my dear friend, and I really have something important to discuss with him." "Guess I'm not late for his absence." "Master Dave is in the guest room, Please". An unrecognizable voice echoed from behind in the midst of the people gathered. "Whoever responded,meet me at therestaurant that comes before the luxurious mansion adjacent to Avenue Street 15." "I need to give you 500,000 dollars; it's been long, and I've never set my eyes on him in ages." He said this to the people and left. They spoke of his cunning schemes, his ruthless pursuit of dominance, and the fear that gripped their hearts when they found themselves in his presence. It was said that those who opposed him vanished without a trace, their existence erased as if they had never existed. "I appreciate the response; the game starts now". He muttered to himself and left the people. Alexander walked straight to the guest room and took a deep breath before knocking at the door. "Knock,"knock,"knock","knock".Alexander knocked at the door frame several times before Dave answered. "Who's there?"Dave asked stunningly. "I didn't expect anyone to be here this soon; who might that be". Dave muttered to himself, wondering who it was. "I don't expect any visitors so soon; besides, I will leave here tonight. What's behind the visit?" Alexander Cromwell heard Dave speak, and he chuckled. He adjusted himself in the suit he wore and knocked once again. "Master Dave, Alexander Cromwell wants to speak with you." Open the gate and welcome me to your room.""Alexander Cromwell?" Dave let out a scream. "Are you the son of the late Mr.Cromwell?" Dave asked in a hurry.Yes, I am. I've been wanting to meet you one day in my life, and since my Dad was a prestigious member of your Dad's clan,I also possess the quality of a president's son.""That sounds ridiculous,Dave said, smiling.Dave stood up and put on a shirt. He got to the door knob and opened it gently to welcome Alexander Cromwell.A well-built man with widened shoulders stood glamorously in front of him."Alexander Cromwell,the son of the late Mr. Cromwell, is welcomed to my humble abode.""You see, Dave, there's a world beyond the glitz and glamour of this party," Alexander, in his black spectacles, whispered, his voice laced with a menacing undertone. "A world filled with secrets, power, and hidden agendas And you, my dear friend, are at the center of it all."Dave's heart raced, and his mind was consumed with questions. Who was this man? What did he know? The weight of his father
Yes, Dave,he was acting strange, so the fear made one want to tell him your whereabouts."."Alexander Cromwell is a beast!."He's jealous of my Dad's position as president, and me becoming the next heir is something strange to him.""Dave,that man is very dangerous; the security guards could not even act when he shouted at them.""I know, right?" His expressions define who he really is, and I must beat the hell out of him"."It all takes time, Dave. You are still not done with Nelson Cruz and now Alex Alexander Cromwell.""That's not a big deal; I must get to my hotel now since everything is in order"."All the best, Dave. I will take my leave now.""Surprise, Alice! I couldn't let you leave without saying a proper goodbye," Dave chipped in, his voice filled with warmth and sincerity.Alice's eyes widened in delight, and a radiant smile spread across her face. She embraced Dave tightly, cherishing the unexpected reunion. "I can't believe you came all this way just to see me off. You tr
"Do you need a free drive, young man?" A driver asked from behind, and Dave turned to see who it was."I want a straight car to a hotel." Dave replied to him."Then I think you must wait a little bit for people to hop in my car so you can beg to join for free." The driver said it mockingly."Not really. I can afford to pay for a drive. Thank you, sir.""Are you for real? I thought you were late here on the streets to get a free drive."The driver said and got back to his car as he drove past Dave with laughter."It's funny how people underrate me."Dave said and walked through the bustling streets of Madrid, the vibrant city lights illuminating the path before him. It had been a long day, filled with endless walking and exploring the nooks and crannies of the marvelous grand party.Exhausted, he yearned for a moment of respite. A cab seemed like the perfect solution—a much-needed reprieve from the fatigue that had settled in his bones."I'm so tired; time is going by, and I need to ge
As Dave took a deep breath, he mustered the courage to approach the hotel worker and make his peculiar request. He cleared his throat and politely asked the hotel worker if he could inquire with the waiter about the availability of a specific drink."I need you to serve me Isabella's Islay whiskey." Little did I know that this seemingly innocent request would elicit a surprising reaction.The hotel worker's eyes widened in astonishment as the name of the whiskey escaped Dave's lips.His initial shock quickly transformed into a mix of disbelief and amusement. With a hint of skepticism in his voice, the hotel worker exclaimed, "Sir, do you realize that Isabella's Islay whiskey is an incredibly rare and expensive spirit? Not even the wealthiest of individuals can easily afford it."Rather than feeling deterred by the worker's response, Dave chuckled lightly, seemingly undisturbed by the exorbitant nature of the whiskey.With a twinkle in his eye, he responded confidently, "Oh, I'm well
"What do you want, Alexander Cromwell?" However, his annoyance was short-lived as he heard the calm and composed voice of Alexander Cromwell on the other end of the line."Hey, calm down. I just wanted to talk to you," said Alexander.Not keen on having a conversation with the infamous Alexander Cromwell, Dave was about to disconnect the call when he heard Alexander's wicked laugh."What's so funny?" asked Dave, perturbed by the sound of the laugh."I'm coming to the 5-star hotel. It seems like you're having a great time there. I'd love to join you," said Alexander, still chuckling.Dave was stunned upon hearing this and couldn't understand why Alexander would want to meet him. This was definitely not a good sign."What do you want from me?" Dave asked, trying to keep his voice steady.Alexander didn't give him a straight answer; instead, he continued to laugh wickedly. This only made Dave more concerned and tense. He couldn't imagine what Alexander would want from him."Listen, Alexa
As consciousness slowly seeped back into his senses, Dave's eyes flew open, and he found himself in a dimly lit room.Panic gripped his chest as he realized his hands were tightly bound, rendering him immobile.His head throbbed with a dull ache, adding to the disorientation he felt.With a surge of adrenaline, he screamed out, the sound echoing through the empty space."Where am I?" he cried, his voice filled with fear and confusion. But there was no immediate answer, only the oppressive silence that surrounded him.Suddenly, a tall figure emerged from the shadows, donning a mask that concealed their identity. Dave's heart raced as he stared at the stranger, his voice trembling."Who brought me here? What do you want from me?" he demanded, his voice bold and deep despite the fear that gripped his soul.The masked man stood before him, his presence intimidating. As his eyes adjusted to the dimness, he noticed a faint glimmer in the distance.A single source of light, barely more than
Taking a deep breath, Dave locked eyes with the assassin, his voice unwavering. "I refuse to be a pawn in Cromwell's game, but I am willing to cooperate under one condition," he stated firmly.The man's eyebrows were raised, and he was intrigued by Dave's proposition. "What condition might that be?" He asked, and his tone was filled with curiosity."I will work for Cromwell, but only if he assists me in unraveling my own past. I need access to my memories and the truth about who I am and why I possess this treasure he desires," Dave declared, his eyes burning with determination.The assassin considered Dave's request, his masked face betraying no emotion. After a tense silence, they finally nodded in agreement. "Very well," the assassin replied, their voice tinged with an undertone of satisfaction."If you prove yourself useful to Cromwell, he may be willing to reveal the secrets that bind you."Relief washed over Dave, knowing that he had negotiated a glimmer of hope amidst the darkn
Alexander Cromwell stepped out of Madam Charlotte's house, his gaze fixed on the sleek black car waiting by the entrance.Welcome, sir. I hope your meeting with Madam Charlotte went well.".The driver, clad in a crisp suit, said so and opened the door with a practiced ease, inviting him inside."Madam Charlotte's encounter was my best experience; she's in my mind with me, and I'm willing to let Dave down."Alexander Cromwell said it with a playful tease on his lips.As he settled into the comfortable leather seat, Alexander couldn't help but smile—a rare display of genuine happiness."To have Madam Charlotte as a friend is a blessing in disguise," he murmured to himself, his voice filled with satisfaction.Their connection seemed to run deep, a bond forged through a shared penchant for manipulation and calculated moves.As the car glided through the city streets,Alexander relished in the knowledge that he had found a kindred spirit in Madam Charlotte, someone who understood the exhila
