As soon as the cold breeze hit Alex face, he closed his eyes and relished in the cool night breeze. He felt so achieved and fulfilled and a wide smile spread across his lips. He sighed and proceeded to walk to his car. The day has been hectic and he had been working all day, he needed rest and he was going to get it. The chef made dishes for him before he returned from work but he was unable to eat it because he was rushing out to the club, he was starving and the alcohol were beginning to hurt his stomach. He was just thinking about grabbing a drive thru when his phone rang.He smiled as he saw the caller. It was Albert. He had missed the old man especially his tired look every time he had to deal with him. He picked the call.“Hey old man!” he said as soon as he picked the call.“Hi Alex. How are you doing?” he asked with his usual politeness.“I’m very well…..never felt so alive. You miss me?” Alex asked, jokingly.“Maybe” Albert replied coldly and Alex chuckled.“There is no other
Back in Northeast, at the villa where Albert and Alex grandfather lives. Alex grandfather had just gotten off the call with Alex. He sighed as he looked out the window.“Don’t worry too much about him. He is fine” Albert said. He was standing behind Jackson, Alex grandfather. Albert and Jackson are very good friends. Every since Alex father hired Albert, he had taken a liking to him and even made him oversee so companies which he did very well. Their relationship has since grown. They have similar interest in almost everything, loves the same movie, the same sport, the same shoes and every suit companies. They were literally twins but Albert would always respect Jackson even though he had complained countless times, stating that they were the same age and he should just see him as a friend but Albert wouldn’t listen.Albert was more than a friend to Jackson, he was his personal adviser, his personal assistance and sometimes his driver. They have built quite a relationship to be envio
The next day at the Adam’s family villa.The head of the Adams family paced around his spacious living room, trying to calm his anger. News just reached him early this morning about the vandalisation of the family company overnight. He was furious as to why the heir of the Edward’s family would do such a thing.“How dare he?! Who does he think he is huh? Just because he is the heir to some useless empire, he thinks he can ruin my business?!” He yelled again, squeezing his fist in anger. His son, the heir to the Adams family was seated and equally angry. He had wanted to ask his father for money this morning when his father yelled at him angrily and called his names, he then got to know the cause of the father’s anger. He has always hated the heir of the Edward’s family, he believes he is too arrogant, proud and useless. They have fought and argued in past times and the matter was settled by both families to avoid scandals. His father had carefully warned him to stay away from the Ed
Alex had woken up late that morning, after his late night a day before. His head banged as he woke up. The effect of the alcohol was just starting to kick in. He went into the bathroom and washed his face and head which relieved his headache. As he stared at himself in the bathroom mirror, he noticed the dark circle and eye bags beneath his eyes. He wasn’t a fan of late night so it definitely took a toll on him. He sighed and got ready for work.Spending longer than usual washing the hard smell of alcohol off his body in the bathroom. He finally steeped out, dried his body, applied lotion and walked to the closet to get some clothes. He settled on a blue jeans, white shirt and blue timberland shoes. He did his normal facial routine and left the room. Alex was concerned about his looks and he believed the three years bet had harsh effect on his skin.He went downstairs, immediately to the dining table. He was starving since he didn’t have a good dinner last night. The chef had luckily
Alex got to work immediately after Evelyn left. The three other families, the Parker, the Simon and the Mark’s family are his next target and he needed to study them too. He wasn’t going to need them as much as the other two families but he still needed to study them so he could turn them against the other two. They were quite interesting and different and if Alex hadn’t trusted Isaac well enough, he could have said there was a mistake somewhere. They weren’t as popular as the Adams and Edward family but they were quite powerful and rich. Alex smirked as the read more about them. He then decided to call Isaac and ask if everything in the documents were true.“Isaac?” he said into the phone.“Yes Master Alex?” Isaac replied.“Can I see you in office?” he asked.“Sure Young master” Isaac dropped the call and Alex waited patiently for him.As well as Isaac knew Alex, he would never enter his office without knocking so Alex had expected a knock and he was right. Few minutes later, a knoc
Crash!"A loud sound resounded throughout the place and everyone turned their head toward the sounds."Oops, my bad." A young man dressed rather shabbily said as he hurriedly looked and went to get some cleaning equipment to clean up the mess.The Young man was Alex, and he was a waiter here at the bar. Just now, an arrogant customer suddenly withdrew her outstretched hands just as he was about to give her the bottle of wine because she changed her mind.Alex, who had thought that the woman had collected the wine from him, left the bottle and the next thing he heard was the loud crashing sound as the wine fell to the ground splashing everywhere.He could only keep his head bowed as he hurriedly went to get the cleaning materials. There was a high-end bar and the customers were all very rich. If he mistakenly offended one of them just because of what happened, he wouldn't know how he died.Besides, this was not the first time he had experienced this. Everyone seemed to look down on him
Right in front of him was his wife, Ella lying on the couch naked, on top of her was a naked short chubby man.At that moment, Alex felt his worldview crash as he couldn't believe his eyes. His wife was having sex with someone else. No, he didn't want to accept it, but he had to accept it.He had always thought that she loved him as she was the only one who treated him rather nicely. But then it turned out that it was all a farce. She was a devil under the clothing of an angel."Ella," Alex called out as he was unable to hold back anymore.Immediately, Ella, who was not far from him, shivered violently. She heard the voice and immediately pushed the man on top of her away and rushed to stand putting on some clothes."Alex...Alex what are you doing here...." Ella shuttered as she looked at Alex."What am I doing here?" Alex frowned as his eyes burned in fury."Should you be asking me that question or should I ask you that Instead." Alex breathed in as he tried to suppress his surging a
Alex shook his head as he thought about it. The day before was the end of the three-year bet he had with his grandfather.He had a bet with his grandfather that if he could endure the humiliation that came with being a live-son-in-law for three years, he was going to inherit the family priorities.And yesterday was the end of the three-year bet. He had the intention of revealing his identity as the heir of the Reynolds family to his wife once he got back home that night.The Reynolds family was the richest in the whole of Timberland. He had lost his parents at a long age and therefore was brought up by his grandfather and was directly the heir of the Reynolds family.But then his grandfather had suddenly come up with a bet three years ago and thinking it was ridiculous, he agreed to it without thinking about it. Over the years, he had endured a lot of humiliation and the only thing that kept him going was his wife.Since she was the only one who didn't treat him with disdain, he beli
