Alex sat in his car, thinking of what to do next. He finally bought a car and new clothes to flex with, yet, there was more money in his account yet to be spent.He is rich. He is wealthy. In just a second, he has become the wealthiest man and that's just enough to amaze him.He was so grateful to Jane for divorcing him. If she hadn't walked him out of his life, he wouldn't be facing this moment. Maybe, signing the divorce paper was a blessing in disguise, who knows.An idea came to his mind, one that was good and indeed he loved the idea. Owning an expensive villa wasn't a bad idea, after all.He googled the best Villa estate in the city, then he drove to the exact location. The gatekeeper didn't hesitate to open the gate for him to enter. He was amazed at what he was seeing, smiling that soon he wouldn't have to be living poor under the roof of his in-laws, but as a house owner this time around."I need a villa, what's the price?" He asked."I'm sorry?" She glared at him with doubt.
He finally stepped at the pouch of his house, sighing in relief to be finally back home. Now, he could rest from the stress he had undergone. Even though it might look minor, it was tiresome with all the events that had happened.Just as he was about to knock on the door, it swung open. The first thing that welcomed him was the aromatic smell of french fries and he couldn't wait to devour it.Look what he was missing all those while.However, Mr John had already ordered for lunch, patiently waiting for his return. While Alex ate on his food, Mr John kept watching him with a smiled plastered on his face."I hope you are enjoying your meal, Mr Wayne?" He asked and Alex nodded his head, his mind and attention focused on the meal before him.John waited for him to finish eating to his satisfaction before commencing to what he wanted to say. "Mr Wayne, I want to discuss with you concerning your father's business. Now that you have spent enough and have most likely changed for the better, I
The next turn he made was to his children's school. He knew what Jane is capable of doing. If he doesn't pay a visit to his children's school, she would show up first and possibly talk to the administrations not to let him have access to the kids. So he got there first.He met with the school authorities and discussed with them to see to it that Mrs Jane Williams doesn't have access to his kids, and that if they fail his agreement, he will make sure they pay for it.After making an agreement with them, he notified them that he was coming to pick them when school dismisses. Not quite long after he left, Jane drove to the school compound, heading for the headmaster's office to lay her complaints. Sadly, they told her that she can't take the kids with her."And why is that?" She stormed."It was an order from your ex-husband, Mrs Williams. I'm sorry, there is nothing we can do about this right now. You have to leave.""I am not letting that son-of-a-bitch take my kids away!" She yelled,
For the past few days all Alex did was send commands to the company, and since then there's been a positive change in the system within the period of five days. There have been rumors over the city about a prominent anonymous man who had taken over the Wayne's property.However, it was Alex's intention to remain unknown to the public until he had finally gotten the company to its feet. It was even to the point that his workers and department team had no idea of his identity.He made commands on companies that needed to be separated from his as their system of operation seems to be poor and ineffective to stand as a partnership to his company.While listing, he also included that of the Williams. "Notify them that they can't remain as partners to us.""What reason am I to give to them?" John asked."We aren't giving them any reasons." He said sternly. However, just as he was cutting ties with companies, more kept sending emails for partnership. Alex smiled victoriously, he wasn't expe
Alex laid on his bed for the rest of the day, busily pressing on his phone. He got bored of pressing his phone so he decided to keep himself busy with movies. He had everything he needed, but Alex's mind wasn't with him, he was thinking about how the meeting would go the following day.He was curious about how things would be and turned out. After all, he has never been to a grand meeting before, to talk of one that involves the elite of different companies.He didn't want to think of Jane, but for some reason he couldn't help it. She used to be everything special to him, the very woman he could risk his life for. The same person who made him despise his shame and the insults he faced from people just because he wanted to make her happy.At that moment she walked him out of her house, he thought his life would come to an end. He felt nothing good was going to come his way, but here he is.But now… he is the man he never thought he would be. He never imagined he'd step to this level, t
“How about we have dinner together?” Fred asked. “The bill is on me.”Alex didn't want to change the idea, he didn't want to show off his wealth and identity so soon, so he only nodded his head. “Sure. I don't mind.”It even shocked Alex the more that there were more guards standing outside. Is this how it's done everywhere? Especially when it has to do with safeguarding an elite? He mentally thought to himself, letting out a small smile.“Are they here because of you?” Fred asked.Alex didn't say a word, he only smiled. “I see.” “Sir–” one of the guards said.Alex gave them a signal that he was fine going alone. “You don't have to.”Fred was about to open the door for him due to what he had observed about Alex within the few minutes he was with him. But Alex stopped him, “I have hands.”Fred exchanged glances with his friend who made his way to the passenger side. Fred started the car, zooming off.“So, who's your friend?” Alex asked, referring to the other guy. “Oh, my bad. This
Alex stepped out of his hotel room and made his way towards the awaiting car outside. One of the guards opened the door for him, and he slid inside. The car drove straight to the conference building, the quiet air complimented the moment.As they arrived, the guard opened the door for him to step out. Taking a deep breath, he adjusted his suit jacket, his eyes fixed on the towering skyscraper before him. He made his way towards the entrance. Everything around him felt differently. The building wasn't of any kind of a mere skyscrapers, it was totally different. Before he could gather his thoughts, a young lady approached him with a warm smile. "Mr. Wayne, it's really nice to have you. By the way, my name is Alice." she greeted, extending her hand for a handshake. Alex reciprocates the gesture, expressing his gratitude. "Nice to meet you, Alice," he replied warmly."Sir, if you don't mind, please follow me," she said politely and Alex trailed behind her as they entered the elevator. T
"Never thought you'd be here, Mr Alex Wayne." Her voice cut through the air, interrupting Alex's words. "Wearing expensive clothes you never worked for. Are you not ashamed of wearing borrowed clothes everyday? Pretending to be who you aren't?"Alex acted not to have heard her talking, but her voice laced through. Alice, who noticed what Jane was trying to do, spoke, "Excuse me, ma'am..." She wanted to speak but Jane cut her off."Excuse me, you stay out of this, young lady." She shunned her. Now looking at Alex, she continued. "Hey, I'm talking to you, Alex.""Were you saying something?" Alex raised his brows."Yes. And I am pretty sure you heard everything I just said. I saw what you did back there, and for you to think you are smart with pride, I'll tell you one thing, you aren't as smart as you think.""Pride, you say?" An amusing smile played on his face. "Since when did you know the word pride?""Don't talk to me like I didn't go to school.""That's the point, Jane, you can never
