The conversation was cut short because Lucas’s phone started ringing. Ignored it like nothing happened and he continued the conversation with Alex who couldn’t concentrate because of the phone.Alex was very upset initially about everything that was going on and it’s not going in his favor. His countenance was very tense but he’s trying not to transfer the aggression on Lucas because he has no fault to play.He knew that Dominic was trying constantly to annoy him. He was trying so hard not to pay too much attention to him but it didn’t seem like that was what Dominic wanted.He was so petty to think he could get through to him through his ex-wife. He didn’t even care one bit about what happened to her so she could go to hell to all he cared.Dominic couldn’t wait to actualize all of his plans towards Dominic and make him pay. He was willing to spend all he had and give all he got just to make sure he brought him down.Right now Dominic might feel triumph and think he has an upper hand
“I don’t think we should be this lenient about this, what if he tries to do something stupid again?” Lucas protested.Although Lucas looked perplexed and angered, Alex looked so calm like he didn’t care about what was going on. Lucas knew that the normal Alex would have ranted and wanted to do a payback but he didn’t.He was simply avoiding any contact with Dominic at all points. Lucas wondered what was going on but he knew he was going to find out sooner or later. “While the production is going on, make sure you find the cause of the fire, make sure it is investigated. I want to make sure it wasn’t a natural accidental fire or if it was intentional. Ask the workers, they’ll know how it happened. Make sure you leave no stones unturned, I need answers as soon as possible.” Alex said finally sinking back to his chair with a smile plastered at the corner of his lips.Lucas texted the workers that he was joining them soon and that they should get ready for a new production. There was a k
Alex pondered hard on what was going on. He had all minds fixed on the fact that one way or the other Dominic was involved with the fire.It just felt right, aside from that there was no other reasonable explanation as to why exactly he was acting so innocently.Alex knew that he couldn’t be that sure that Dominic wasn’t planning on messing with him on purpose but it just didn’t feel like he was behind the fire.He knew he was planning something just to bring him down but that wasn’t it. He knew whatever it was that Dominic was planning was going to be big.A fire at his storehouse could only do a little damage and he knew Dominic was aspiring for more. That wouldn’t do much and it could only distract him for a little while.He kept on pondering because it all seemed confusing. He didn’t know what to believe but he had his mind fixed on the fact that it wasn’t Dominic behind it. Of course, it was going to be in his favor because it was bringing him down but it wasn’t it.If it wasn’t D
Two days later,“Don’t you dare tell me to calm down? If you have just one job and you still can’t do it properly then what are you useful for in my company? “ Dominic sprang at Jeremiah.“ I didn’t do anything, I did exactly what you asked me to do and we paid all the people we could pay at once. I don't know how he managed to get over all of this.”“ Of course, you’re going to have excuses for your failure. You had just one job which was to make sure that everything goes down after the fire. You still couldn’t do that right. I know that a lot of things got burnt in his store and he was meant to feel it but he didn’t feel anything. That means you guys failed to do your job well. ““ This is more complicated than we think. He was just one or two moves ahead of us. I don't know how he managed to get it all restocked that fast, I have no idea. The plan was to make sure that he loses a lot of money but I don’t know how…”“Oh shut up your incompetent mouth. You’re going to have one excuse
“Young Master, what are we going to do next?” Lucas asked, looking at Alex.“They'll soon all be destroyed in my hands. All that we need is a little more evidence.” Alex said.“I hope you've gotten sufficient evidence?” He asked, raising his head to look at Lucas.“Yes, young master, I have, but I don't think it's sufficient.” Lucas shook his head.“And why'd you say that?” Alex frowned.“Though all the evidence I found is concise. I'm not sure if it'll be sufficient.” Lucas explained.“Alright then, continue to gather more evidence.” Alex nodded in approval.“Yes I will, young master.” Lucas nodded in compliance.“Sir, do you think Dominic would do anything?” Lucas asked.“Nope, he has no power to do anything. The current around him is not powerful. He's already spent most of his resources trying to launch an attack, which failed miserably.” Alex smiled.Though Dominic's attack over the past week shook him, it had still failed regardless, so he was not too concerned about anything.“
Here's your money," Alex said giving the taxi driver a fifty-dollar bill."Young man, I don't have change." The taxi driver who was a Middle-aged man said helplessly as he looked at Alex."Keep the change." Alex smiled as he walked into the mall in front of him.He was here at the mall to get a new watch. The one he was wearing had already spoiled, so it was only ideal for him to get a new watch, and then he was going to head to the company.As for Lucas, he had sent him on another errand, then he had come to the mall himself, or else Lucas would have accompanied him.There were still some other things that needed to be done. He was going to attend to them once he was done with what was on in his hands.Shaking his head, he pushed all thoughts to the back of his mind and headed straight to where he was going to get a new watch.All the sales girls inside the section ignored Alex immediately and walked in which made the latter frown. Well, then he couldn't care less about anything at th
"Deceive you?" Alex frowned, looking rather confused."When did I deceive you?""You told me the watch cost two thousand dollars, but it's two million. How dare you lie to me?" The man growled."And when did I tell you that the watch cost two thousand dollars?" Alex furrowed his brows looking at the man."I never said that it was two thousand dollars. Instead, that whore beside you assumed it was, and you agreed with her, so how is it my fault?" Alex shrugged."You..." The man gnashed his teeth in anger as he pointed at Alex."Besides, didn't you say that you're rich, why do you look like a child who has lost something precious?" Alex frowned as he said, his tone full of concern."I thought you said you could buy ten of the watches without blinking. You've only bought one, and yet you're looking as though you'll cry.""Don't forget, there are nine more for you to buy, and I hope that this shop has enough so you'll buy them for me. I'll be very grateful to you. After all, eighteen mill
"I changed my mind, you should stay back and help me get back at them." Alex's voice came just as Tiger was about to walk out of the place.Tiger froze and immediately turned back, without the word, he rushed back to Tim and grabbed him.Smack!A loud sound resounded throughout the place. Tim held his cheeks as he looked at Tiger in surprise. Why the hell did the latter slap him?"I didn't know your name was Tiger." A sarcastic voice came just as Tim was about to say something."You know your name does sound very domineering." Alex chuckled as he walked towards the man with a slight smile."Absolutely not, my name is not Tiger, my name is Jackson." Tiger hurriedly said as he bowed, not daring to look at Alex."Hmmm, Jackson, I see," Alex muttered."What did he say I did just now?" Alex grinned, turning to Tim who was already shivering in fear."I didn't say anything..." Tim shuttered."Tiger, he said he didn't tell you anything when you came in just now, is that true?" Alex turned to
