"Young Master, we have quite a problem." One of the men said immediately Alex alighted from the plane at Atlanta.He was one of John's trusted men and had been tasked to serve Alex pending the time he was going to return to the capital. In short, he was going to be taking over John's role and have everything done for him."What's the problem?" Alex asked, turning to look at the man while observing him.Though he knew he could trust him since he was chosen by John, he wasn't going to blindly trust him. He still needed to pass his own assessment. After that, he was going to decide if he was worthy of his trust or not."A few days ago when you left, a woman named Jean came claiming that she was the mother of your children and insisted on taking them away." The man said slowly observing Alex's expression.Alex's expression changed after hearing what the man had said. What the heck did Jean think she was doing?She had abandoned her and his children and yet she was trying to take them back
"Jean, it's been quite a while, how are you doing?" Alex laughed, turning around to look at Jean who had a frown on her face."I don't care. Just leave the children and get the fuck out of here." Jean growled ignoring Alex's words."Did I just hear that loser's voice?" Another sneer came just when Jean finished her statement."If it wasn't the person who caused my downfall the last time and still blamed me for it." Alex chuckled looking at his ex mother-in-law, Susan."That's because you're good for nothing, if not, there's no way you'd have lost such a co company." Susan sneered."Says someone who was begging me with all she had to save her back then and that she'll never forget my favor." Alex shrugged."You know I could put you back where you belong and there's not a thing you'll be able to do about it." He continued."Says a loser." Susan sneered."Fuck off right away and leave those children behind, or else I'll call the police." Susan threatened."That's quite interesting, you c
"Young Master, we have a problem!" Lucas panicked hurrying over to Alex who was in the study room."What's the problem?" Alex raised his brows looking at Lucas with a frown."Sir please take a look at this." Lucas said, bringing out his phone and playing a video showing it to Alex.Alex's expression changed after seeing this video. Inside the video, it showed how Alex had abused Jean physically when he had gone to take his children.Inside the video, it was shown that Jean was begging that she wanted a last contact with her child but Alex ruthlessly kicked her away denying her any access.Then also, it was shown that Jean said she only wanted to be with her children and that she wanted nothing else but that. If only Alex could allow her to see them once in a while, but then Alex threatened to Kill her if she came near his Villa."I found this quite funny, you know." Alex chuckled immediately after he finished watching the video.Lucas swallowed some saliva hearing Alex's words. He kne
"Sir, what are you going to say about the scandal that's going on about you, do you have anything to say?" One of the reporters rushed forward and asked Alex immediately the latter came down from the car."Sir, did you do it?""The evidence is right here, are you still going to deny it? Or do you have something to prove."Many of the reporters came forward, bombarding Alex with a lot of questions."Stand back." The men guarding Alex blocked them out, preventing the reporters from reaching him.Alex smiled looking around, Dominic had planned everything rather too well. It was not too surprising, that was a result of something that had been in plans for many months, so there was no way the effects wouldn't be like this."Sir, you have to say something, the case of you assaulting your ex-wife over the custody of your children is grave. You could spend many years in prison for that." Another of the reporters said."Is that so?" Alex, who was about to walk toward the school where he would b
"You saw what I was telling you." Dominic frowned, turning to look at Jeremiah who was staring at the TV in shock.All that transpired between Alex and the reporter was live, so they were able to watch it."I didn't expect him to be so smart." Jeremiah said in shock not knowing what to say.If he was in Alex's shoes, he would've been able to throw off everyone with just a few sentences. This was proof that the way Alex's mind was working was not normal, he just couldn't guess the pattern."You should know now." Dominic replied with a sour expression.He had spent a long time planning this attack, yet from the looks of everything, it was going to fail. Alex had already known that he was the one who attacked. What was he going to do?Now what he feared most was Alex's counter attack, the latter wasn't going to spare him and he was sure of it, he had to do something about it. He just couldn't sit and watch him right.But what was he going to do? If he had known, he would have thought abou
“I have better things to do than to converse with you unnecessarily. So it would be better for the both of us if you just get the hell out of my face.” Dominic snapped angrily.“Oh please you're so used to passing out empty threats. And is this how hostile you are? You have a visitor and you can't even offer me water? Regardless of a drink!”“The only liquid you'll be tasting here is the blood in your mouth when I send a blow across your face. You're not welcome here so if you're not here for anything meaningful use the door.” Dominic growled but Alex chucked. He seemed glad and proud that he was getting on his nerves. He would do anything to spite him, anything as long as it leaves Dominic mad and pissed. “I don't think any of your threats are of any use to me. You should have known by now that I don't give a damn about your thoughts. No one cares, and most definitely not me.” “I don’t care about your storytelling either, all I’m saying is you should save us both from this pointles
“This is all the documents you asked for; it’s carefully articulated and it has everything you need to know.”“Are you sure it contains everything? I don’t want to have to revisit this issue. I want to deal with it once and for all and the only way I can achieve that is if your work is accurate.” Alex muttered casually sitting in his study staring blankly.“I did it to the best of my ability. I made sure everything was specific enough and it’s all based on facts, no lies.”“That seems interesting to know but at the same time I hope you deal with the confidentiality of this work quite well. You know no one can one way or the other figure out the findings we are trying to make. If it’s realized it can be easily traced back to me.” Alex uttered with a serious countenance on his face.“I didn’t let anyone know. I handled everything personally this time around without giving it out to the boys. I know how important this is and I was careful about everything just as you instructed.Alex smil
The next day...Alex was working on some documents placed in front of him. His face looked cold and unwelcoming.He had a lot of work to do and it kept on piling up one after the other. A paused for a while and drank some water from the cup that was placed on his desk.He sighed before he continued staring at the screen which was in front of him. He looked so tired and one wouldn’t have to think twice before realizing that he was perplexed.He kept on analyzing one document after another and after a while, he threw it away in frustration.He wasn’t getting the answers he wanted which was getting on his nerves.“Why does it have to be so hard??!!” Alex groaned.He pushed all the paper off the table and they all fell on the floor. He put off his laptop and sunk into his chair.He sighed deeply staring blankly at the door when he heard a knock on the door.He ignored it but it continued so he had to speak.“Who’s that and what do you want?” He asked tiredly.“It’s me, Lucas.” The person
