Chapter 5

Prepare to attend the forthcoming CEO annual meeting in 3 days' time. As you will be representing the company.” Mr Morris said 

“ Me…. represent your company?” Alex asked 

“ No grandson. Representing your  company “ he corrected him with a smile. 

“ You are the new CEO now, and everything will be run by you. He added. 



“ You can go now, they are downstairs waiting for you,” he added. 

“ Okay, grandfather “Alex responded. 

Alex had never felt this way in his life. He had so much joy and happiness in him that he could experience wealth and luxury. He is now a trillionaire and owns many businesses and companies. An heir to the Brendan family. Having all the power, wealth, and influence. 



 He just had a flashback of how poverty made him lose his daughter. How he got a lot of humiliation and insults because he was poor. Now he has the influence, money and power in his hands. Now he can get revenge on people who caused him pain and suffering. 



Alex then left the room where his grandfather was to meet his driver and personal assistant downstairs. As he walked toward the car in front of him, the door of the car was hurriedly opened by the driver. It wasn't the same man that brought him. Neither was it the same car. His own drive was a young man in his late twenties. A tall handsome-looking young man. 

“Welcome Master Alex. I am Josh your drive” he greeted. 

“ And she is Victoria, your personal assistant,” he added. 

Victoria, his personal assistant,  was a young, tall, beautiful, light-skinned lady. She should be in her late twenties too. 

“ Good day Master Alex” Victoria greeted with a smile. 

“ Call me. Alex, he said immediately. 

“ Sir, I am sorry I can't call you by your name. You are my master and I work for you” Victoria replied. 

Josh went further to open the door of the car as Alex went in. He drove to one of the most expensive designer stores in Los Angeles. 

As they arrived at the store, Josh quickly parked and rushed down to open the door for Alex. 

“ We are here Master Alex,” he said. 

“ Thank you” Alex responded. 

Victoria also came down and followed him behind with her handbag, a pen, and a jotter. They both walked into the store to get some clothes, shoes, and accessories. The store was indeed a  beautiful one having different segments for different types of outfits ranging from cooperate outfits,  leader,  casual, and designer outfits. 

The store was a place where only wealthy people would shop.  They walked in and the receptionist welcomed them warmly, she showed them around to select  nice outfits. Victoria also followed her boss behind to make sure he was satisfied and got a proper treat. 



As they walked toward the segment of wristwatches, His ex-wife Vivian and her friend were there shopping too at the sight of Alex they were perplexed.

“ What is he doing here? How does a poor man have access to this store?” she asked her friend. 

“ Maybe he works here either as a cleaner or an errand man” her friend responded out of mockery. 

“ No, I don't think so, he is with a young beautiful lady too” Vivian replied in curiosity. 

“ Or does he have a young girl that spoils now? Or poor girl, only if she knows she is moving with a broke man who is about to finish all her money” she said. 

They were left in confusion as they really didn't know which to believe. He came closer and heard Victoria calling him Master Alex. 

“ Master Alex, I feel this will look good on you, and it's a new model and only 2 of it have been made. I am sure this will be the second one” Victoria told her boss. 

“ Okay, add it to the rest, let's go to pay. I have to go prepare for my meeting” He replied.

Overhearing all these conversations made them more surprised. They never expect to see him in such a luxurious store and talk less about shopping from there.



Alex on the other hand saw them but ignored them. He knew he had power, money, and influence he would get revenge. He walked straight to the cashier to pay for the things he picked up. He brought out his card, paid, and walked out of the store. His assistant was behind him, with the things he chose. We went out of the store and headed straight to where his car was parked. His driver immediately opened the door for him. 



Vivian still couldn't believe her eyes, how would his just change all of a sudden? She immediately rushed to Alex’s car which was about to move. She stood in front, giving the driver a sign to. 

She moved  towards the the back seat where Alex was seated. 

He immediately whine down the door glass and asked her 

“ How may I help you” Alex asked pressing his phone. 

“ Alex, how are you?’ she asked with so much fear. 

“ How may I help you?” Alex asked again. 

“ I have things to do with my time if you don't have anything to say” he added. 

Alex immediately whined up the car window and asked his driver to move. They left Vivian there, she was so embarrassed.

“ This is just the beginning,” Alex said to himself as his driver drove. 

Vivian was embarrassed and stylish and walked into the store to meet her friend, she could barely utter a word. She then told her friend that they should leave immediately. 



Vivian immediately drove back home to tell her husband whom she saw at the store. 

“Babe, babe you won't believe who I saw today at the store,” she said to her husband Flex. 

“Who?” he asked out of curiosity. 

“ Alex, my ex,” she told him. 

“Does he work as a security there now?” Flex asked further. 

Secur….., what? He was there to shop, Alex was in a Bently car with his personal assistant and a driver too” Vivian told him without waiting for him to finish his sentence.

“Are you sure? A Bentley. I really can't believe that.  He could barely afford food before now he is in a Bentley? ” Flex chuckled. 

“Yes, my love. Alex is definitely rich now, I must acknowledge that.
