The Rightful Successor Chapter 54
Alex was pissed by the news he heard but decided to keep his cool. Brielle was probably trying to pass him a message that he'd not understand if he didn't keep calm. "Oh, she is? Extend my greetings." He replied sarcastically Nikki was shocked by the way Alex answered. One would think that he'd have made it obvious that she made a move on him but he was mature enough about it. Her friend had truly won a jackpot. She concluded.Brielle chuckled, "but can you come home a bit early tonight. I have good news for you." She replied.Alex thought that it had a double meaning. "Will do. Have a nice day." He replied and hung up immediately. He was pissed with that lady in his house. What he didn't tell Brielle was the fact that Nikki was telling him that she was better than Brielle and had more influence to help him achieve his aim.He was wiser than her though. Although she was his wife's friend, he'd use her till he needed her no more. "You have become very close to your husband, that's gr

Alex saw that a car was following them from the mirror and told the driver that he wanted to alight. "Can I have your number please? I need to get someone whose number I can call after I'm done with the bathroom stuff."The driver nodded happily and scribbled down his number on a piece of paper, handed it over to him and went to relax immediately after Alex alighted from the car. Alex adjusted his shades. It wasn't too late for him to find out that something was really up.He watched from the back of the store as a car also pulled over in front of the car that brought him there and he smiled. He knew that he was always right with his assumptions and suspicions. The only person that his mind went to was none other than his brother. So, Liam had sent someone after him. He pulled out his phone immediately and dialed the number that the man had given him and the man picked up instantly. "Hello, sir. Are you returning soon sir?" The driver replied and he shook his head. "No, don't spea

Martins was stunned when the person continued trying the lock. "I think he's going to come in. This is still broad daylight. What if he can't open the door and goes to ask that people help him out with it? What will happen if I'm caught here? I'll automatically lose my job!" He whisper-yelled and Alex sighed.This was what one got when they sent a weakling on an errand. " Why don't you take a deep breath first and let's see what will happen. He can't enter. He would take a while to get someone to break down the door. Just make sure that when he leaves, you seize that opportunity to escape. That's what you'll do.""Only that you must leave with those papers. You can hide them under your shirt, I think that's better even." Alex instructed."Good, then. I'll do just that." Martins replied confidently at Alex's instructions. There was something about his voice that suddenly made him calm. The lock stopped being disturbed and he sighed. He inched closer to the door and immediately opened

Alex's phone rang and he picked it up instantly. " Hello, Alex speaking, what can I do for you?" He asked, pretending not to know what was happening.The man signaled to the man not to say anything because it would make Alex suspicious. " Oh, nothing much, sir. I was just wondering where you are. I've not seen you since you left. It's almost an hour now. I hope there's no problem?" The phone was on loudspeaker so that the man would believe them. " Oh? I forgot to tell you brother, I went out with a friend. We are in a nearby restaurant. Are you tired of waiting? I rented you for the day."The man exchanged a meaningful glance with the detective, as if asking him if he could see what was happening. "I'm sorry it's not like that sir. I was just a bit worried about not seeing you. I thought something had happened. I can now rest now that I know that you're fine, sir. " The detective shook his head as he quickly corrected himself. " I'm sorry,

By the time Alex got home that night, he was exhausted. Brielle noticed his countenance and decided to move closer to him. He had not told her where he was going to, so she was a bit confused by his current state. But as someone who wasn't ready to know all the nitty gritty. At least not nwo, she ran a bath for him. They could discuss this layer and find out what actually happened. He stared at her concerned face mixed with a bit of curiosity that she was trying so hard to mask. "I know you want to ask me something. What is it?" He asked her, making it easier. Brielle sighed and laid out his pajamas."Oh, it's nothing. I'm just trying to be reasonable. it's probably not the best time to begin to harass you for information. I mean what am I even saying? It's definitely not the best time to seek it. you'll tell me when you're ready, I believe that so..."Alex took a cursory glance at her. She was lovely and she was acting really mature making the stress worth it. " Well, I discovere

The next few days, there was tension in the Styles clan and it affected Alex too much. He was cranky at the office and was almost shouting at everyone save that he didn't want to show that he was under pressure somewhere.There was a knock on his door and he barked, " Come in!" The young secretary walked in with her hands wrung warily behind her back in fear of what he might do to her. "Why are you standing there? Drop your message and leave, why are you still staring at me like that?""Oh, I'm sorry about that, I was just thinking about something right now and I realized that I didn't actually know how best to put it so that I didn't disturb you." Alex was already pissed by her stalling. It was very annoying that she was wringing her hands as though she was a kindergarten pupil. " Do you have anything to say or not? Kindly leave my office." Liam sauntered into the office with a large smile on his face and he glared at the girl who was acting like an imbecile. "How did the HR faci

Brielle was busy laughing at Sean's presence. He was making sure that she had a good time. " I wouldn't have believed that you would come out to see me. I could have sworn that your husband would be here with us. I don't mean to disrespect you though. But you understand what I mean right?" "No,I don't. I can see what you're doing. Brock has obviously told you stuff about me though hence the reason for your words. But it's all good though. So how are you doing?" She changed the topic.She was going to shut down any form of disrespect towards her husband even though they weren't on the best terms at the moment. " You returned and didn't deem it fit to make a proper contact with me, huh?" Sean shook his head before tipping his heart in a bid of apologizing. "Oh, I didn't know that you would want to see me, you know with everything on ground. That was why I stayed away but I won't do that anymore. I've been good though, the company has been booming. I can't imagine that both of us aren'
The Rightful Successor Chapter 61
Upon Brielle's arrival at home, she was greeted with silence, telling her that Alex had not returned from the club. Well, where could he have gone? She didn't want to call him because it might be interpreted as guilt. She would rather that he returned and they talked things out like adults.On cue, she heard the fondling of keys and quickly went to unlock the door from behind. " Hey, " she whispered when he walked in and he just nodded in reply.There was a certain stiffness around his shoulder that told her that he was still angry at her. The problem now was that she wasn't to be blamed for anything. She couldn't even process the reason he was annoyed. For all she knew, she hadn't done anything wrong but not tell him where she actually was. He had watched the scenes play out."I've been waiting for you." She whispered hoping to elicit a reaction from him. " Why aren't you speaking to me?" She probed him."Why are you pestering my life?
