Mr. Alphonsus was short of words as he heard that, his mouth remaining agape with his eyes wide open."You mean this lady is your wife-to-be?" he managed to ask."You heard me right, Grandpa," Rex affirmed, smiling."You're welcome, my daughter," the old man said to Ava. "I hope you've offered her something, please?" he questioned."It's still early for that grandpa, c'mon," Rex teased."Please get her something. What do you mean, Rex? She just came a long way to visit you this morning, and you're refusing to offer her something," he frowned."No, Grandpa, she actually attended your event last night. Um, don't be offended. I didn't inform you of her sleeping over; we never planned it that way, but as you already know, the event ended late, so she couldn't go back at midnight, so she had to..."Accompany her husband," Mr. Alphonsus completed, and they both burst into laughter, including Ava."You're so funny, Grandpa," Ava chimed in. She never expected to hear that from him; this reall
Ava sighed, "You don't need to worry; I won't do that, and besides, they won't do you anything as long as it is not intentional," she affirmed."Thank you so much, ma," the maid replied."You're welcome," Ava responded, smiling at her. "Anyways, may I know your name?" she asked."Oh, of course, ma, I am Sarah Smith," she answered with an honest look."Alright, welcome, Sarah. I hope you're enjoying your stay in this place," Ava asked."Of course, madam, they're amazing. I earn pretty well here as if I'm a government employee," she replied boldly."Of course, I know you will. They're really good," Ava responded. "Well, let's process," she added."Proceed on what, madam?" Sarah asked, trying to know what Ava really came for."In making the breakfast, of course," Ava replied calmly."No, madam, please; it's not okay for you to do that as long as I'm present in this place," she rebuked.Ava chuckled again. "Do you even know why I am here?" she questioned."I'm sorry, ma, but if it's about
"Thank you, Miss, baby of the house. I know you must have been enjoying the home alone," Ava responded friendly.Cecilia's face shone brighter as she heard that coming out of Ava, she had been cold since she noticed she was with Rex, unbeknownst that Ava was not really the type of person she portrayed on her last visit, and this was because Rex had made it clear to her who Cecilia was."Absolutely, ma," Cecilia responded with a smile on her lips. "I have been acting like a baby since yesterday," she said. "I watched movies last night to my satisfaction and went to bed at the time I wanted," she added."Because you have nowhere to go, that's why," Rex chimed in."Oh, absolutely not, because I don't have to wake up early to make something for the house," Cecilia stated. "I only had to make food for myself, so I woke up when I chose to," she added, winking at them.Everyone laughed, excluding the guards, who maintained their stern looks.They walked into the building, and the guards bran
At the company, Rex was in his office going through some documents when his messenger came in."Sir, you have a visitor. Should I let her in to meet you?" she questioned.Rex exhaled and raised his gaze toward the messenger, relaxing back in his chair and clutching his legs together."Who did she say she is, and what did she say she came for? Do you know her?" he inquired."She is the former accountant, sir; she said she's here to discuss some personal matters with you," the messenger responded.Rex's heart sank in his stomach as he heard this, and he sighed heavily. Has this lady come here to embarrass him again? But what Rex was worried about now was that she was going to embarrass him in front of his subordinates."Sir, is everything right?" The messenger asked. "Anything the matter?" he added, as he realized the sudden change in Rex's face at the mention of "former accountant.""Oh, yeah, I was contemplating something," Rex responded. "Anyway, let her in," he declared.At first, h
Rex couldn't help but let out a wry smile."So what do you want me to do?" he questioned her.Upon hearing this, Miriam cleared her throat in relief. To her, it seemed her nest was about to catch a bird."They demanded a sum of three million dollars for the surgery, and I don't have it," she stated, clutching her fingers and gazing at Rex with worrisome looks. From her stare, one could tell that she was scared that Rex would refuse to offer any money.However, Rex let out another chuckle. She even added an extra one million dollars to the two million she agreed with her lover.In honesty, Rex hadn't heard of or seen someone who went under the knife for medical surgery that has cost two million dollars, except for the liposuction and Brazilian butt Lift ladies do. To add to his surprise, she added an extra one million dollars to it, making it three million dollars. Indeed, Miriam is a gold digger."You need three million dollars for surgery concerning your pregnancy?" Rex asked, gazing
"Please, I'm sorry, Mr. Rex. Please, I don't have any other means of survival if you do this to me," Miriam pleaded."Whatever. Please leave my office!" Rex growled, causing an alarm that his messenger rushed in."Sir, is anything the matter?" the lady questioned as soon as she rushed into the office."Please take this lady out of my office; get the securities to take her out," Rex insisted."Alright, sir, consider it done," she affirmed, leaving the scene. A few minutes later, she returned with four strong-bodied men."That's the lady who had been disturbing the master. Please lead her out," the messenger urged the company security men."This way, please," one of the men said to Miriam with a stern gaze, which is capable of causing convulsions in newborn babies.Miriam, sluggish, stood up from the chair, walking out and staring at Rex with a pitiful countenance."Idiot. Thank God the secret was revealed," Rex blurted out. He sighed in relief and continued what he was doing.After an
"So as the phone kept beeping, I couldn't resist picking it up to mute the sound because it was disturbing me in my work," he paused, heaving his head in relief. "So as I picked it, and upon dragging down the notification bar, only for me to catch sight of a shocking message," he narrated."And what was the message about? I mean, what did the message say, and from whom was it sent?" Ava was already getting pissed off by Rex's inability to go straight to the point."It was her lover—the one who actually impregnated her. They even went as far as forging a lie to loot two million dollars from me. However, Miriam added an extra one million dollars to it, making it three million dollars." He let out a heavy breath as he was done narrating the story."Like really? All these happened today in your office."Ava questioned, and her eyes broadened in surprise."Definitely, she really wanted to frame me up and milk the hell out of me," Rex responded."You're fortunate, really fortunate! Next tim
"I just received a call from Miss Ava, and she said she had been dialing your line, but it was not reachable," she stated."Okay, what is the problem?" he questioned, rushing out of the restroom with a towel on his waist. He was so confused that he nearly ran out of the restroom naked."She said an anonymous individual just moved out a huge amount of money from the company's account, and that they had..."What!" Rex exclaimed in agony. Who could be doing this to me? No, they can't render my company down. I shall find the root of this," he growled."Don't worry, Cecilia. Thanks for the heads up; I'm going to the company right now," he said."Alright, sir, I hope this is resolved and the money is revived," Cecilia remarked and left.Rex quickly unwrapped the towel from his waist and dressed up to visit Polite Group. He wanted to know how and the exact amount of money his company had been duped of.However, he didn't even bathe anymore because of how desperate he was to visit the company.
At Range Global JD Hotel Street, the road was a busy one as different cars were trooping in and out of the hotel. Just then, a black Mercedes-Benz pulled up in the street. Though the hotel street has been busy with tons of flashy and expensive cars, however, there was no passerby the car came across that wouldn't halt and take a second glance at it. After about two minutes, the car arrived at the magnificent hotel and halted at the entrance gate, waiting for the gate to open so it could enter. Without much waiting at the entrance gate, after about thirty seconds of waiting, the gate automatically opened, and the car drove in. The gate took so much time because its monitor was checking the car to know if it was really worth entering the hotel as the car owner was not a regular customer of the hotel. Hence, the gate didn't recognize the car immediately when it arrived to open. The car was directed to a parking slot by the hotel attendant. Meanwhile, at an empty table, a lady was sea
"Alright, dear. Trust me, I won't let her cross her boundaries," Rex stated."Good, boy. Always strive hard to be a good boy," she teased, and Rex laughed."Sure, mummy," Rex responded jokingly."Goodbye; I'm in the office right now, and a visitor might come in at any time.""No problem, dear, till we see again," Rex replied."Okay, but please remember our wedding is a few days from now; don't do me dirty, please," she pleaded, her voice so soft and cold that Rex could feel her emotions."Dear, worry no more. We're going to live together until nothing separates us. A mistake can't be repeated by a wise one," Rex affirmed to her, and the call ended.He let out a deep breath of relaxation. Ava was not against his decision to take Cassandra on a date.He went to the restroom and took his bath; however, he immediately tied back his towel after remembering he wasn't with his soap, which he just purchased recently, hence it was still in his room.While he was coming out, he came across Ceci
"Alright, I'll text her right away with your number," Andrea responded."No problem," Rex responded, and the call ended."Wonders shall never end," Rex muttered as he was surprised by what he heard. He could not believe Cassandra was still in the country."This means she broke up with Kanye, probably after she couldn't resist his inability to stop cheating anymore." Rex was curious."Well, I shall hear the full story," he concluded, and he stood up to perform his morning activities before eating.As Rex squatted down and began his martial skills, he was interrupted by the ringing of his phone; however, he ignored the call because he didn't want a disturbance. However, the call came in again after the first ringing."Maybe it would be Mr. Montgomery," he let out, quitting his action to answer the call.Mr. Montgomery is a well-known businessman Rex had recently linked up with; hence, he didn't want to miss his call.However, upon picking up the call, he heard a female voice. That was w
At 6:30 p.m., the party began at Rex's building.Everyone was so jubilant and dancing to the classical music rhythm that it was difficult to detect who was superior among them because they were dancing together. Rex did not show any atom of being their boss through the way he danced and associated with them.After about an hour had passed, everyone had been tired of dancing. They sat down, while Rex remained standing. It's time to let them know the purpose of the celebration party."I'm glad and excited to share this beautiful moment with you all," he remarked, clearing his throat before continuing. "I know you all must have been eager to know the reason for this urgent celebration party, right?" he asked, smiling."Definitely, sir," Tyler responded loudly."Well, this party was held to celebrate my little achievement, to celebrate how I conquered the problem I faced these past four weeks," he said, taking a deep breath. "Honestly, I thought it would be impossible, but at last it was;
"Thank you, guys. We really have something to celebrate for," Rex responded to them. "I'm coming; let me drop my bag first, take a little rest, and also inform the chef," he added.***The next day, Monday, Rex was seen at the police station. He came as they requested, just so they could reach an agreement and also so he could settle them for their job well done. Additionally, to collect the remaining balance left in the Kanye West account, the money they were yet to squander before being caught.The hackers weren't able to withdraw the money directly to the account Rex provided because the bank didn't permit the transaction, suspecting they were trying to loot the money. However, they freeze the account until the owners come to verify it.As Mr. Churchill saw him, he quickly attended to him. "Welcome, Mr. Rex," he said."Thank you, Mr. Churchill. Good morning,""Good morning to you too," he responded. "We've gone through this case thoroughly and could confirm that they are not only g
At Polite Group Business, around 4:50 p.m., a car suddenly pulled up in front of the company's entry gate and made its way in.However, as the security men of the firm realized they were police, they were worried because policemen had not come into the company dressed in their uniforms and holding pistols just to purchase something.The chief security officer of the company approached them and said, "Good day, officer, is there a way we...Just as he was about to let out the question, Rex and his manager, Ava, were seen coming out of the building. He swallowed his question and gaped in awe.He began wondering if the policemen had come to arrest both the CEO and the manager."What could they have done to warrant this?" he wondered.Immediately, one of the policemen opened the back door of their black Maria and let Kanye West and Miriam out. However, as Rex and Ava caught sight of them, they gasped in unison."Mi... Miriam, you're among them too?" Ava stuttered.Nonetheless, Miriam coul
At the Range Global JD hotel, a group of men gathered in a VIP section with some expensive wines and drugs on their table, however, there was a lady with them.Everything was still going smoothly in the gathering until a police siren was heard.At first, everyone in the hotel thought the police were passing; however, it turned out their expectations were wrong when three policemen entered the hotel premises with pistols in their hands while two unknown men accompanied them.They walked over to one of the hotel attendants. "Greetings, young man," one of the policemen said."Good evening, officers," the attendant responded, gazing at them with surprise."My name is Mr. Churchill, and we're happy to come across such a gentleman as you. However, I'm sorry we came uninvited," the first policeman proceeded. "We actually came for good, but we need your corporation," he added."Alright, sir. So how do I help?" The attendant asked. He was still worried about what prompted them to visit their h
At Polite Business Group,Rex was in his office with Caroline, the accountant. They were estimating what they had lost in total from the anonymous hackers and scammers."Caroline, this is really a huge loss for the company. Do you think we can even survive this?" Rex let out a sigh as he couldn't believe what his eyes saw—he couldn't believe that the amount the scammers looted was that big.Just as he finished lamenting, his phone rang. However, he ignored the call because he wasn't in the mood to answer any calls. He was so shattered that he craved isolation. All he had in mind to do at the moment was, after the estimation with Caroline, go straight to a bar and drink himself to a stupor, then go back to his house and sleep till the next day.Meanwhile, Rex had not mentioned the issue to his grandfather. After all, he didn't want anything that would result in the old man being worried because he knew that would cause his blood pressure to escalate.After a few minutes had passed sinc
At 2:00 p.m., Rex and Tyga were done eating and were coming out of the restaurant after he had paid. They entered the car and continued their voyage. A few minutes later, they arrived at the school, and Tyga parked the car in the parking lot and waited for Rex while he went inside to consult the school HOD. *** It was already mid-evening when Rex came out of the HOD office. However, Tyga had been worried; he was about to call Rex to find out if he was really safe in there. From Rex's countenance, Tyga could figure out that his issue had been sorted out. "Let's go now, everything is sorted," Rex told Tyga, holding an envelope. "I'm glad your problem is resolved, young master," Tyga responded. They entered the car and stormed off to the estate. However, inside the car, Rex's phone began ringing. He brought it out and discovered it was Ava. He sighed and picked up the call. "Hello, babe," he said. "Good evening, dear," she said. "I called to know if there was any update concerning
