Alex burst into the room, eyes ablaze, catching Luster red-handed in his deceit. His hand was already on Sophia’s body."Alex!" Luster sprang up, attempting to distance himself from Sophia. His guilt gnawed at him, but he masked it with feigned anger. "How dare you!!!""How dare I what?" Alex advanced, seizing Luster by the neck of his shirt and yanking him upward with his left hand."What are you doing? I'm calling the police." Luster's face paled, twisted by fear."Great, call them. Tell them you're poisoning Sophia!""I am not," Luster protested.Alex, seeing Sophia in disarray, becomes furious."Lying through your teeth," Alex punched, his right fist connecting with Luster's face, causing his nose and lips to bleed."Now, tell me who ordered you to poison Sophia?"Luster, arrogantly, retorted, "You're finished, Alex. You're messing with someone powerful. You're going to regret this."Alex, filled with anger, throws another punch, to his eyes, "You better start talking!"But then, r
Alex checked on Sophia, noticing her emotions were in turmoil. Her face flushed red as the poison began to take hold, igniting her desires uncontrollably.He glanced at his watch, realizing he had only five minutes before the poison would begin to affect her brain. It would be too late to seek help elsewhere.Sophia, driven by the potent toxin, lunged at Alex and kissed him with desperate hunger. “I need you!” she gasped, her clarity fading fast.With a resigned sigh, Alex knew he had no choice but to act swiftly to save her.What would happen, would happen.He quickly unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a well-defined torso, his muscles taut under the strain.Opening his clothes became a struggle as Sophia, driven by primal instinct, continued to kiss and cling to him fervently."Quick, Alex! I can’t hold back any longer," Sophia pleaded breathlessly.Alex just ripped of Sophia shirt and pants. Guided her to the bed.“You fucking sly fox!” Alex slammed and pinned her on the bed. “Don’t yo
"Are you sure we are going to get our marriage certificate today?" Sophia joyfully inquired as they finally reached the parking area."You ask once again, I cancel it!" Alex, irritated, stepped out of the car.Sophia giggled as she stepped out, quickly catching up to Alex and hugging his arm, smiling happily. "Honey, please wear your smile; it's our special day."The government agency in Blackwood City functioned as a comprehensive service center for all government-related documents.Alex found it ironic that he returned to the same location where he had filed for divorce just a day earlier, now seeking a marriage certificate."We need two witnesses for your marriage certificate." the officer asked as they sat in the office."Wait," Alex walked soullessly to the divorce department.The security guard stopped him. "Hey, what brings you back here? Looking to cancel your divorce? You can’t!""Actually, I'm getting married today," Alex responded with a bit irritated."No way!" exclaimed th
Luster nursed his hot coffee, the steam mingling with the pain radiating from his black eyes, broken nose and swollen lips. The door suddenly banged against the wall with such brutal force, causing him to jump in shock. The scorching coffee spilled onto his clothes and pants, causing burns on his stomach, and penis. Forced him to stand up panickly to cool down his painful burning skin. “Outrageous! Who dares to...!” As he caught sight of Alex entering, a wave of fear from morning encounter washed over him, but he quickly masked it with a defiant stance. “Alex, how dare you kidnap Sophia and hit me. I’ve filed a lawsuit; the police will be here any minute. Enjoy your last moments of freedom.” Alex gave Luster a disdainful look. Considering Luster nothing more than a broken radio spewing nonsense, Alex casually walked to his main chair and sat down, arrogantly propping his feet on the table. Outside, the employees looked in, amazed by Alex’s boldness. Luster's eyes widened in d
In the eerily stifling silence inside the general manager's office, people still couldn't believe what they had just heard. "Howard," Luster’s face a mask of disbelief, "I have worked for 31 years in this company. You cannot just fire me like this." "Did you try to poison Miss Sophia or not?" Howard asked. "No, I am not!" Luster yelled back, his eyes blazing with anger. "Everyone here knows I didn't harm Sophia. It was Alex who did it." "Right?" Luster turned to the workers, trying to intimidate them with his lingering power. "Lucas, Jack! Tell Mr. Howard that Alex was the culprit!" "Luster," Howard continued, unshaken, "Miss Sophia has recorded everything, and the police already have it." Four police officers entered the office and looked directly at Luster. "Luster, you are under arrest for your illegal actions towards Sophia." "I am not!" Luster tried to flee, but the police quickly tackled him, his face slamming against the floor once more. They handcuffed him swiftly and l
The Lucas, Peter and another senior manager named Liam entered the meeting room, trailed by a hushed atmosphere of pale faces and fearful glances from the other workers. "Stay safe in there." “We will collect your ash, later,” said the other workers as they know three of them will be fried by Alex as they insulted him so much in the past half year. The three top ranks faced Alex with fear etched on their faces; it tasted so bitter. “Do you know why I am calling you?” Alex inquired inside the meeting room. Liam’s voice trembling desperately, “Sir Alex, I need this job for my family. I have three children in college. Please don’t fire me. I beg you.” His eyes brimmed with tears. “When you fired those workers for no reasons, did you consider that they also have a family to feed?” Alex said. Lucas quickly knelt, pleading, “Sir Alex, I'm begging you. Please, you can cut my salary, but don’t cut off my lifeline. I have five children. It is Luster and Ugor who forced me to insult you
"I am Sophia Deneuve's husband," Alex declared. Both guards looked surprised. To avoid any trouble, a guard called over a bunch of family chauffeurs, wishing one of them would recognize him. "Hey, any of you know this person?" Several drivers strolled up to get a closer look. "Hey, it's Alex, isn't it? Remember me? We've crossed paths a few times on the project site," mentioned the driver for Sophia's parents. "Exactly," Alex responded. "You're Eddie, right?" "Do you know him?" the security guard inquired of Eddie. "Yeah, he's a construction worker," Eddie replied. "Oh, I heard there's a problem with the event area's toilet drainage," the guard remarked. "Were you the one summoned to address it? I was told no one has tended to it, and it's after hours already." "No," Alex asserted firmly. "I'm here as Sophia's husband." The drivers and security guards erupted into laughter. "You've got some jokes there. Really funny," one driver teased. "Do you think any dog and cat can be
Sophia continued, "This man is really my husband. We have our marriage certificate. He's not just a toilet fixer, he works on Total Construction." Sophia’s father approached Alex. "Aren't you Alex, the construction worker of our hotel?" "Yes, Sir," Alex replied. "Isn't a construction worker and a toilet fixer the same thing? Poor labor?" Envira chimed in, unable to wait to deliver one or two blows to lower Sophia’s status within the family. “A lowly human!” "Sophia," the old grandmother said with a lot of anger and hatred. She now held the key to the Deneuve riches, since her husband had become senile. "I don't want to hear something like this anymore. Let's pretend we didn't hear anything. Please, continue with the event.” “And you, toilet fixer, a lowly human, I command you to sign the divorce papers tomorrow. You are not welcome to Deneuve’s. Get out of here!” "Grandmother!" Sophia pledged. The grandmother ignored Sophia and gave Alex a disgusted look. "Why haven't you left
