“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
A rush of anger filled his veins as he read through the last parts of the document. He was annoyed that all he was trying to do was help but instead, he was taken for granted.He knew that she wasn’t sorry for what she did because her actions afterward said everything.He shook his head as he finally closed up the documents after reading through everything. He was glad he finally knew what was happening, enough to know none of it was his fault. His hard work in building the company was ruined by just one person because of a gamble that should have been none of his business. He thought he was getting the money back since she stated that she was stranded.How dare she take his kindness for granted?His mind narrowed back to what happened when the company crashed and he told her about it. ***“The company fell off, I tried everything possible to make sure that didn’t happen but it didn’t work,” Alex uttered, trying to be as calm as possible. He was sad and pissed that his hard work wen
“How was I so dumb not to know the kind of person Susan is?” Alex looked so angry. He didn't mind how fast he was driving, all he wanted was to get there and clear his mind up. He was so pissed at the fact that they made him look like a fool, knowing it wasn't his fault. “They all knew!” He stamped his arm on the steering. “Come to think of it, it really is my fault, I was so stupid enough to think I was helping Susan, I trusted that family with everything living in me. My silly trust made me lose everything, every bit of the things I struggled to achieve.” He looked so broken as he thought of it. “But now I'm never falling for such foolishness again. I'll make sure I get my revenge on every one of them, and this revenge would be so soothing yet agitating.” He clenched his teeth as hard as he thought of it. “I'll make sure of that.” He promised himself. Finally, he got to Jean's house, the security tried to stop him but the glare and rage on his face alone made them back down. H
Alex walked away, headed to his car, and got in, he took up his phone and called Lucas. “Come over to the cafe close to Jean’s house, I'll be waiting,” Alex spoke, he still sounded like he was pissed, yes he was pissed, they had a mockery of how weak he was, and it made him so angry.“I’m on my way,” Lucas replied and ended the call. Alex left Jean’s house and drove to one of his favorite coffee shops that was close to Jesn’s house. He sat there and ordered a coffee but he was still in a very deep thought. They really made a fool out of him. He regretted everything he had done for that family. He regretted putting a ring on Jean’s hand. He regretted the day he laid his eyes on Jean. “I won’t let Jean and her cunning Mother get away with this, they have done enough, it's time to make them pay for the atrocities they have caused me.” Alex's face was as cold as ever while he thought of it. After some minutes Lucas arrived, he quickly saw Alex and walked to where he sat. Alex was so q
“Why are you back here? You don't have the chance to come back here, so fuck off and find something else to do.” Alex looked at the man closely trying to remember where they once met because he had a very familiar face. Alex still hasn't uttered a word yet. It just came in so unexpectedly, leaving Alex in a surprised manner. “Even with the fact that you were once the CEO of this company, you were not even qualified to maintain it.” The man added and sneered at Alex. Lucas was so angry as the man uttered trash from his mouth, but Alex held him back from doing anything.Alex suddenly turned as he heard a mocking laugh from someone behind him.He was so surprised to see who it was. “Mr Dave?” Alex was so disappointed. Mr Dave was Alex’s old friend whom he helped to secure a job in his company, the man had no job accommodation but had very good knowledge, and Akex also paid him even much more than what he deserved.He was very loyal to Alex, severely Alex promoted him due to how respec
It was Mr Albertson, the former owner of the company, who called Alex back. While Mr Albertson was still at his office, some thoughts suddenly hit me. “I think I should tell Mr. Alex about this, it might help him as he is the new owner of this company.” Mr Albertson thought. “And he probably should be on his way now, I should hurry.” He wanted to call one of his security guards to call Alex back but decided to go by himself. He got up and quickly left his office heading to the reception area before the exit. “Mr Alex! Mr Alex!” He shouted His name and Alex turned in his direction also Dave, all the noise that Dave was making seized. The security that was about to drag Alex and Lucas out stopped back as Mr Albertson entered the scene and called out Alex’s name. “Oh, Mr Albertson.” Mr. Dave said as he formed a smile at the corner of his lips and turned to Look at Alex before walking close to Mr Albertson. Alex still stood where he was without uttering a word. He knew what was about
Immediately Dave fell to his knees, and that was when he realized he had messed up badly, he knew what he went through just to stay in this company even after Alex left. It was so difficult for him to get a good paying job like this, the evil plans he had hadn't been accomplished fully so he begged for another chance. “Mr. Albertson, please, I cannot just leave this company like this, after everything.” He knelt in front of Mr Albertson pleading for his job back, he was hoping for Mr Albertson to help him out.“What have you done to Mr Alex that made him So upset? He would not just sack you like that, you probably must have done something” Mr Albertson questioned him, waiting to hear his reply. Although Mr Albertson trusted him but still had his doubts about Dave. He once suspected his act but did not want to take it too seriously because it was just based on suspicions. “Sir, please help me beg him to give me one more chance.” Dave ignored the question, pleading for his work back.
