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
"Young Master, would you like to go to the company with me?" Albert asked as he looked at Alex who was eating in the dining room."Nope, I'm not interested in going, I want to head to the mall." Alex shook his head and replied."Alright Young Master," Albert nodded and didn't say anything more.He could care less about what Alex was going to do at the mall, besides he was in no position to ask. Even if he asked, there was nothing he was going to do with the information."Alright old man, let's go." Alex sighed and stood up from the dining after some minutes."I'll drop you at the mall," Albert said as he stood up and walked out of the villa alongside Alex.He had come to Orange City to take a look at the companies which were located here. He had been staying at Orange City for the past month and thus decided to buy a villa Instead of living at the hotel which was where he brought Alex to the night before.That morning, he was considering signing a contract with some of the top compan
The man's face changed immediately he looked at the floor and saw the broken necklace."Would you mind telling me what happened here?" The man growled as he looked at the sales girl who was crying."Sir...sir I...I..." The sales girl shuttered not knowing what to say."Talk!" The man thundered as his face was twisted in anger."I....." The sales girl shuttered as she broke down crying even more profusely."I said talk." The man's eyes burned with rage as he said.The broken necklace on the floor was over a million dollars and now it was broken. Instead of her to explain, all she did was to explain."Don't exert the poor girl, she's probably crying out of guilt, I'll tell you what happened instead." The woman spoke up, catching the attention of the man.The man immediately turned to look at the woman. From the way she was dressed, he could tell that she was from a rich family, and judging from what she said, what happened involved her."You see, your sales girl is careless and let the
"Sir, what do you mean?" Lucas asked, looking confused."Well then, I don't think I'm in the right position to answer that." Alex shook his head."What happened here?" Lucas immediately turned to the manager and asked."Sir, the sales girl was careless and she dropped a necklace worth over a million cashing it to shatter." The manager said as he hurriedly explained."Is that what happened?" Lucas looked at the sales girl and asked.The sales girl who was already shocked with how things had developed was shocked to the bones when Lucas asked her the question. She couldn't believe Alex was this powerful, able to make the owner of the mall appear.Though she couldn't understand why he was dressed in such a manner, she secretly made up her mind not to look down on anyone who was dressed shabbily though she didn't look down on him when she saw him first.The crowd were also whispering to each other as the development of the matter also shocked them greatly and they couldn't help but pity t
