The Enigmatic Alexander Chase Chapter 32: Roses
Earlier That DayDaniel Lockwood pulled into the parking lot of Maverick Corporation in his sleek blue Chevrolet. As he stepped out, adjusting his tailored suit and straightening a bouquet of roses in his hand, he couldn’t help but replay his earlier conversation with Lady Lockwood. It had taken some careful maneuvering, but he had successfully managed to persuade her to keep him as the head of the Maverick project.Lady Lockwood, after watching Ethan Bishop’s confession, had initially texted Seraphina, asking her to come see her. The intent was to apologize for the misunderstanding and crown her as project head. But the moment Daniel heard of this, he rushed to Lady Lockwood and urged her to reconsider. He argued that the midnight confession seemed suspiciously convenient, likely falsified to cover Seraphina’s shame. Even if it were genuine, he argued, would the media and the elite of Pantheon Valley really buy into it? The scandal was still too fresh, too hot to be cooled down by a

Earlier That DayGrace’s heart began to race as Alexander’s calm but insistent voice came through the phone.“You’re with Daniel Lockwood, correct?” he asked.Grace was taken aback that he knew this. How could he possibly know that? She hesitated before responding, “Yes, sir.”“Good. I need you to relay a message to him.”“Of course, sir. What should I tell him?” she asked, her curiosity piqued.Alexander’s voice remained steady, but there was an edge to his words. “Inform Mr. Lockwood that Maverick Corporation will only accept Seraphina Lockwood as the project head for our deal. And as a response to his actions, we have decided to terminate our two hundred billion-dollar contract with the Lockwood family if Seraphina is not restored to her rightful position.”Grace’s eyes widened. She struggled to hide her surprise. Daniel Lockwood had been sitting here, trying to charm her into putting in a good word for him with the head of Maverick Corporation… and now Alexander himself was instru
The Enigmatic Alexander Chase chapter 34: Hangover
Seraphina had passed out, the result of too much alcohol consumed with Happy. They both lay sprawled on her bed, and even in her sleep, Seraphina’s pain was visible. Tears trickled down her closed eyelids, leaving damp trails on her cheeks. Suddenly, the bedroom door burst open, and a voice yelled, “Seraphina!” It was Caroline, her mother. The noise was deafening, but only Happy stirred, squinting against the light. “Hey, Mrs. Caroline,” Happy greeted, her tone casual, as if Caroline hadn’t just stormed in. Caroline shot Happy a venomous glare. How dare she greet me like we’re friends, she thought, remembering the heartbreak Happy had caused her son, Shay. The only thing they shared was a mutual disdain for Alexander. “Happy, what the hell are you doing here?” Caroline asked, her voice dripping with scorn. “What the hell does it look like I’m doing here? I’m helping my best friend after her so-called family betrayed her and kicked her out,” Happy replied, her tone laced with sas
The Enigmatic Alexander Chase Chapter 35: Dumb-dumb
“Wait, let me get this straight. Lady Lockwood—the matriarchal bitch you basically thought was going to banish you—called you directly, apologized for the misunderstanding, and went as far as offering you the project head position, and you said no?” Happy yelled, her voice filled with disbelief as she stared at Seraphina like she’d lost her mind."Welllll, technically, I didn’t say no," Seraphina replied defensively, fidgeting with her hands. "I told her I’d think about it."“That’s the same thing, you dumb-dumb! What the hell is there to think about?” Happy threw her hands up in exasperation.“Seraphina, what is wrong with you?” Caroline interjected, her voice tight as she tried to keep her temper in check. “Please, tell me you have a good reason for delaying your response to Lady Lockwood.”Seraphina looked down, avoiding her mother’s piercing gaze. She opened her mouth as if to explain, but no words came out. How could she explain something she barely understood herself?Caroline s
The Enigmatic Alexander Chase Chapter 36: Beneath the Surface
EarlierAt Maverick Corporation, Alexander finished his call to Seraphina, a smile of satisfaction tugging at his lips. He had set the wheels in motion—now all he had to do was watch as the Lockwood family found themselves on their knees, forced to acknowledge Seraphina's worth.“Thank you, Archie,” Alexander said, handing the phone back.“Anytime, sir,” Archie replied with a nod of respect.Alexander added his personal number into Archie's phone before returning it. “Let me know if you need anything.”Archie stared, surprised by Alexander’s humility. For a man who wielded power and influence so effortlessly, his humility was almost startling. Archie couldn’t help but contrast Alexander with Daniel Lockwood, who possessed much less power yet flaunted it shamelessly. It was a striking irony that lingered with him.Outside, in his car, Alexander composed a message to Seraphina:“Seraphina, Lady Charlotte will call soon and offer you the project head position for the Maverick contract. W
The Enigmatic Alexander Chase Chapter 1: The Blue Diamond
"Money has never made man happy, nor will it; there is nothing in its nature to produce happiness," Alexander chuckled as he read it off his social media feed. "Whoever came up with that must have been crazy rich or just plain crazy," he thought as he rose to his feet. He was standing at the top balcony of the Lockwood Family Mansion. "Money does make a man happy, crazy money that is; the question is, do men in their innate evil nature deserve such happiness?" he concluded. After taking a few more moments to admire the blend of sky and city lights, Alexander headed back inside. With his head bent over his phone scrolling, he bumped into someone. It wasn’t just someone he had bumped into; it was Jacob Harrington, King of the Diamond Enterprise, accompanied by his assistant, Silvia, and his bodyguard "My apologies," he said as he tried to wipe the champagne he had spilled on Jacob Harrington's suit. "It's fine," Jacob replied. In a split second of retaliation, Jacob’s bo
The Enigmatic Alexander Chase Chapter 2: The Blue Diamond 2
The entire hall remained in silence, everyone too paralyzed with shock to say a word. The blue diamond lay scattered across the hall, shattered into a million pieces. “How dare you?!!!! Do you have any idea how much the blue diamond cost?” Daniel yelled, breaking the silence. “Considering how easily it broke, not much,” Alexander said. “A regular diamond wouldn’t have shattered falling from such height and force, much less the blue diamond, which has been recorded to be the world’s strongest diamond.” It is a known fact that diamonds are one of the strongest substances on earth, strong enough that they are used to cut metal.The entire hall gasped and murmured to each other.Daniel could feel the heat rising. His nicely knitted lie was coming undone. He couldn’t let that happen; he had to do something. “You’re a live-in son-in-law with not a single dollar to his name. Understandably, you wouldn’t know anything about the Blue Moon Diamond nor its value, so I won’t argue with
The Enigmatic Alexander Chase Chapter 3: Master Caspian
"I’m sorry, but you seem to have made a mistake. I am not who you are looking for," Alexander stated firmly."Master Caspian, even after ten years, I still would never forget your face," the elderly man insisted."The name’s Alexander, now get lost,” he replied with determination.The white-bearded man paused, contemplating.His name was Geoffrey, anc he was or rather, he used to be Master Caspian’s butler.He took a closer, more concentrated look at Alexander. His demeanor and appearance seemed vastly different and unrecognizable from the boy he once knew. He looked thinner, more disheveled, with overgrown hair, but his eyes… his eyes held a different story."Young Master Caspian, I know it is you," he said with a gleeful smile, bowing his head."The name is Alexander, Alexander Chase. The Caspian you seek of is long dead, at least to you all," Alexander retorted."But Master Caspian, you are needed back at home," Geoffrey insisted.Alexander paused, his mind spinning. "I am needed?
