Alex approached La Plage with caution. After staying out of sight to see whatever Sean might try to attempt on his way. His phone rang and he saw Sean's number flashing on the screen. "Yes?" "I'm there but you aren't. Is that what you're good at? Standing people up?" Sean fired back. Alex chuckled inwardly. This was going to be a battle of wits. This man was sharper than Brock and he welcomed the challenge. " This is not the best way to speak to someone that you've been longing to meet." He replied knowing that he would surely be angry with the way that things were going. "Are you sure that you don't want me to check out? Unlike you I have a multimillion dollar company to run and I don't have the time to talk about incessant things." Sean replied. Alex grinned, he looked forward to things like this. " I'll be there in a minute." Sean had already ordered his drink. A bottle of scotch as usual. He was ready for the day. There was nothing that would stop Alex from accepting his
Panic surged inside of Alex as he rushed toward his beloved wife who was lying unconscious on the floor this was not what he was expecting."Can you see what your stress gas caused her? She fainted at your arrival!" Brock tried to pin the blame on him.Grandma gritted her teeth as she stared at her grandson, "How insensitive can you be, Brock? This is not just anybody! This is your sister for crying out loud. If anything, you should be making haste to make sure that she doesn't die." Alex ignored their brouhaha and picked up his wife, carrying her out of the godforsaken house. This was the last time that she would set foot into the house. He was going to make sure that she didn't see them. They wouldn't kill his beloved wife because of a deal that had all possibilities of not coming through. It was almost as if they didn't understand what was going on but he didn't even mind. That was the least of his worries. "Drive to the hospital." He ordered Brock's family driver who understood
A small smile appeared on Alex's face and for the first time in a long while he experienced deep-seated satisfaction. This was what it meant to be very satisfied. He wasn't feeling any pressure to do anything other than just take his wife home. He remembered one of the days when Brielle had complained about a headache which he thought that she had gone to the hospital for.He was beaming like a Cheshire cat that caught the canary and he was not ashamed to even show it. " How far gone is she?" "She's three months gone." Alex did a quick math to the period she was free from the clutches of the kidnappers. Nothing else mattered to Alex. He finally had an heir , someone that would take over from him."Thank you for this information, so what are the next things that we need to know and do." He replied. He was a believer in something that something was meant to be and one didn't prepare for it, one might end up losing it. "Oh, she'd begin her antenatal and we'll tell you more as the preg
The whole clan was happy with the latest development except for one person who felt like there was a great problem.Grandma was very elated. Finally Brielle has made her see her third generation. Party was thrown in Brielle's family house despite knowing that Alex didn't want them to be together no matter what happened. Brock on the other hand was as salty as he could but no one paid him mind. There was no need for him to be unhappy. "Are you that heartless that you're not happy for your sister, is that what this is?" Richard demanded from his son. His behavior was unacceptable and guests were beginning to ask questions. He was so good at bringing drama to the family which didn't make sense seeing he wasn't better himself. "I am happy for her. It doesn't mean that I should go into full circus mode. I see that you guys are really happy. I guess all my efforts for this family are finally going to go down the drain and no one is even remorseful about it. Is that what I get for making
Meanwhile, Alex was ready with all his might to make sure that Brielle didn't lack anything because if she did, it could cause him problems. There was a limit to what he could take without looking like life had walked through him, done him dirty and finally decided that it was going to destroy him. Brielle coughed slightly and Alex was swift to rush to her side to try to know what was happening with her. If that was the least that he could do, he had to make sure that she was well and that nothing was wrong with her fundamentally. "Do you need to see a doctor seeing that you're coughing this badly?" He inquired. Brielle only mustered a smile and shook her head. "If I knew that you'd be so caring toward me, tell me why I didn't go ahead all these while and get pregnant?" Alex didn't find that statement funny because it showed that something had been lacking between them. It wasn't the best way one should live life if one wanted to be honest. "I don't think I'm pleased with that.
"Lock him up, he's going crazy!" Richard ordered the cops to ignore the glares and protest from Brock. It wasn't news that there was a problem. He wasn't feeling too well but he wouldn't allow anyone who could turn out to be a potential killer to destroy his life. "Don't touch me. I'll sue you if you do so!" Brock yelled but the officers didn't mind him. "I know my right and I would make sure that I tarnish your image." Richard signaled to them to carry on with their jobs. "If you don't cooperate with us willingly. Then I won't be responsible for any action that I take."the lead officer threatened. "You are just bullies and I'm here to make sure that you won't enjoy your life. I'll find you and sue you. You have no right to rough handle me." Brock complained. As he was about to say the next word, he found himself on the officer's shoulder. This was unacceptable by all standards. "Lock him up till he's sane enou
Brock looked up from the room that he was being locked up. It wasn't an easy feat at the end of the day, he was being stopped from contacting anyone. He had thought that it would never be possible but he had shown that it could actually be.The room was without ventilation and all that he could think of was the fact that he was going to be in the mess for so long. This was something that he had never imagined in his life. It was a stupid reason for him to be taken.He was legit scared when they were speaking about him being locked up and he was trying to understand that there was a problem which he shoots and tried to get to the bottom immediately but what did he do? He didn't do anything tangible except make sure that there wasn't something else holding him back though."Rise from your shame... Now this would teach you that you don't behave to your parents nor people anyhow you please." A deep voice called from outside making him even shake his head.This was a great humiliation. The
Alex, who had received a call from Kate sighed "Is there a need for me to be present?" He inquired because he didn't understand why she had been calling for a few days. When he responded, she had said that she would reach out to him again but ended up not doing so."Yes, you do. Your brother has been pestering me for information and asking that I represent him."Alex rubbed a hand over his face. He was having a business meeting with his new partners and didn't want to be interrupted one bit. "What do you intend to do?" He inquired and she shrugged."I really don't know yet. I want you to come in when he's speaking and confronting him. I don't want to be involved in a lawsuit. I have other things to do with my time, also, I want you to see him, he's been acting up." She replied.Alex was wondering what was happening. "I won't be present for his shenanigans. I thought that we were to have a concrete discussion about moving up our plans. I've been busy doesn't mean that I've forgotten a
