"And you are?" Alex turned around to face the person who had just spoken.Turning around, he came face to face with an ordinary looking man who had a menacing expression on his face."Boy, don't you know who I am?" The man sneered as he looked at Alex."Your father didn't tell you who you are?" Alex raised his brows looking at the man with a slight smile on his face."Who the fuck do you think you are?" The man flew into a rage."Chillax bro, you don't need to flare up over something like that, I just asked you a question?" Alex shrugged."Who the heck do you think you are? Do you even know which family I came from?" The man roared."You're nothing but an ant who wants to stand in my way! If you don't apologize to my woman right now, I'll make sure you don't see the sunlight tomorrow." The man threatened."Wow, that's a very interesting threat," Alex chuckled and walked closer to the man."Why the fuck are you coming closer!" The man moved back as he looked at Alex."I'm just wonderin
(THE NEXT DAY)Alex stood by the window, staring down at the street with both hands folded at his back. He had nothing to do at the moment, the cold morning breeze blew on his skin, sending cold shivers to his body.He was loving as the air blew on his body, and he wasn't ready to leave that spot. Just when he was enjoying the air, a knock came on the door. “Come in.” He said, his eyes still staring at the street.John walked in, “Sir, you have a visitor.” He informed him.“Who is that?” Alex asked, not sparing him a glance.“His name is Viktor, from the Addams family.” John told him. A small smirk played on his lips. “So they came.” He mumbled within himself. “Should I let him in?” John asked. “I can tell him to leave if you don't wish to see him.”“No. No, let him in.” Alex permitted. “Yes, sir.” John left to call Viktor in.Alex left the window to his desk, settling on his leather chair. The door opened, John walked in with Viktor trailing behind him. “Sir, he's here.” John noti
Not quite long after John had left the office, Dominic barged in without knocking. “Alex…” he growled.Alex looked up, annoyed. “Why are you here? And is your brain too weak to know that you have to knock before walking into people's offices?”“Who do you think you are? By the way, I have every right to walk in without knocking.” He sneered. “You don't try that shit in my office. Now get the hell back outside and knock like a responsible adult.” He commanded.“Seriously?” Dominic chuckled, finding it quite funny. “You fucking want me to walk outside all in the name of knocking? You're crazy.”“I don't care whatever you are outside, but as long as you are in my company, you don't have a choice. So, I'm going to say it for the last time. Walk outside that door and knock like a responsible adult.” He said, his voice was a bit harsh but calm.“How dare you walk me out of your office?” Dominic remarked.“Because it is my office, and I have every right to do so.” Alex retorted. “Whenever y
It's been a week since the incident between Alex and Dominic occurred. However, things have been going pretty well with Alex despite the workloads he had faced during these past few days, plus finding out time to spend with his kids wasn't as easy as he thought. As the days passed by, things became a lot tougher than usual.Alex stood by the window of his office which used to be a comfort zone for him whenever he was less busy, he would find solace and a moment of peace while staring down at the busy street, watching as people walked to and fro, watching the countless cars that passed by. He had nothing in mind but he looked lost, that one might think he was passing through a lot.Suddenly, a knock came on the door, interrupting him. Without looking, he permitted whoever it was in. "Come in."It was John, and he had a sullen expression on his face. "Young Master," he called."Mm-hmm." Alex replied without sparing him a glance."We have a problem." He announced. It was then Alex turned
That night, just as Alex had requested, John brought with him seven trusted men to carry out the mission. Alex stood waiting, his face wore a stony and serious look."Young Master, they are here." John announced.Alex turned to look at the men one after the other. They weren't so hefty, but they looked quite good for the task. "Well, I have an important task for you guys, it's gonna be a dangerous one, but trust me, you'll love it." A smirk crept on his lips.John glared at him with a surprise look. He's been wanting to know why Alex had requested for the men, but hearing him say that, John was shocked. Something dangerous?"Where are you going, Young Master?" He finally said the words he had desperately wanted to say."I just want to get a few things from the D&G company, it won't take long." He replied.John was quick enough to understand what Alex was trying to say. "But, sir, what if you end up getting caught? This isn't a good idea.""John..."John cuts in. "We can find another wa
While on their way to his home, Alex had already called John to send his driver to meet him at a certain place with a new van. He didn't want to be traced, so they switched vehicles, dumping the other van at a lonely place.First, they drove to his warehouse where he dropped off the stock goods, before returning home with a cab while the men left for their various homes. John had been awake as he couldn't help but be worried for Alex's sake. He was a bit relieved when he saw Alex walking into the compound unharmed. He rushed out of the mansion to welcome him. “Is the Young Master alright?” He asked.Alex nodded. “Just as I left.”“How did the plan go?” John asked nervously.“Well, it went better than I expected. I told you, I have my ways of getting things done without getting caught.”“What did Young Master do, if I may ask?”“I took down the storehouse and I made sure every single thing was burned to the ground. Though I almost got caught, but don't worry, we made it out alive.”“A
"We launch a counter attack immediately."John froze hearing what Alex had said. He was shocked and wondered why Alex opted for a counter attack when there were other ways to resolve the issue. He had come up with suggestions, but then he kept it to himself, seeing that the Young Master already had his plans.Alex smiled seeing John's confusion, he already knew why John was feeling that way but then, he wasn't in the mood to explain things to him. So, he just ignored him and continued."Find out what company produces high quality stock for Dominic. When you do that, I need you to pump more money into his stocks and buy them all.""Young master, don't you think that will be too much? We'll only be wasting more resources and in order to get our company back, we need more money." John explained, but Alex had better plans."You just have to do as I say, John, we'll worry about that later. Right now, I want to do everything under my power to see that Dominic falls. Once his stocks are depl
That evening, the men John had sent were able to carry out the task successfully. They did exactly as instructed, and they were able to attack Dominic's men who were taking the goods to the border before hijacking the stocks.However, Alex sat comfortably on his favorite couch, waiting patiently for positive feedback. When John's phone rang, Alex stared at him while he took his phone from his pocket, picking the call.John placed the phone on his ear. “Sir, the job is done and we have the goods with us. We're on our way to the warehouse.”“I hope none of you were caught?” John asked with all seriousness.“No one was caught, sir.” Replied the voice.“Nice job, boys. Take the stocks to the warehouse, I'll send you an alert when you're done.” He hung up the call, turning to Alex to tell him the good news.“It's done, clean and neat. No mistake, no one got caught either.” John told him.“I see.” Alex said with a nod.“What next?” John asked, seeming interested to know.“How far have you g
