"Um… I think you gave me the wrong files, this looks like an edit of the one that I gave to you" Rebecca said to Hudson with a bitter chuckle, beads of sweat were already beginning to gather at her forehead. Her fingers were already beginning to tremble with fear. "No, I am sure that I gave you the right documents and pictures, now… " his lips stretched into a full smile slowly."You said you don't mind calling out the names of the person in the photo, everyone is waiting for you patiently" Hudson said, resting his back on the chair."I am not calling the name of the person in this photo, this is so absurd, do you know what I went through to get that evidence for you?!" she asked, raising her voice in anger while putting the pictures and proof back into the big envelope she pulled it out from. She slammed the big envelope on the table furiously. "If this is the original, how sure are you that the one I gave you is also not true?""Um… call out the two people you see in the photo,
"Rebecca Wright" Ethan called, while looking at the photo in the file he held with one of his hands, he was seated on a comfy chair, close to the fireplace in his home, there was a glass of wine in his other hand. He just discovered the lady that had talked so much confidence during the meeting when others were kept silent by his intimidating aura. He pulled open the file and there was a full picture of her underneath it. She has blonde colored hair and a straight eyebrow on her round face, and small round lips also. On the file it said she was five foot six, which was a little above average. He dropped the file on the chair and stood up, walking towards his room with the cup of wine held in his hand, he had no interest in any girl apart from Alexis Daniel, that was the only girl he wants and he is going to make sure to get her by the end of the day, he always make sure to get what he wants. His takeover of the starstruck company was successful, he had no plans of showing his
"Check the news or the internet, anyone you can," Bethel said, pushing the door to Hudson's office open. "Why, what's wrong?" Hudson asked, dropping the documents he was holding. "Just do" Bethel replied, pulling the chair opposite Hudson, back a bit and sitting on it, he had a blank expression on his face so Hudson didn't know what to expect when he opened his phone; whether it was good news or bad news, he didn't know which of them to expect beforehand. He unlocked his phone and entered into the internet immediately, the news that welcomed him was the new CEO of the Bloomix industries, formerly known as Starstruck. He had a mask on his face when addressing his workers who were there to welcome their new CEO and by his side was James Adam and Rebecca Wright. This new industry already grabbed the eye of the public to themselves, the media are trying to unlock the face behind the mask and they are also trying to know the reason why James Adam and Rebecca Wright switched sides f
A round of applause filled the atmosphere, their eyes moving to the top of the building, most of them placed their hands on their forehead afterwards to prevent the sunlight from entering their eyes. Ethan waited for them to bring their eyes back to him and for their applause to settle down.It took them a minute more for them to stop clapping. They all moved their attention to him, everywhere fell silent again. "I don't have much to say, I only had the intention to say my name and the name of the company today but I would like to issue a warning to the companies ahead of us in the global ranking…" he paused.They couldn't tell the reason why he paused, the mask on his face not only prevented them from seeing his face, it also prevented them from telling how he is feeling through his facial expressions."Bloomix industries is coming for you, no one on that ranking is safe because what we are bringing to the public has more quality than you think" he said and bowed his head, about t
Bethel drove as though he didn't notice that he was being followed, he saw an incoming tanker and pressed his foot on the pedal, speeding towards it.The cars followed him blindly, not knowing where he was headed, they pressed their foot on the pedal also. Hudson had no escort behind him, he had given them the day off, he felt that they had been stressed enough the past few days with either driving around with them or following them closely from behind. He didn't regret his decision at all but he was sure that if they were driving closely behind him currently, they would take care of those that are following them. Hudson raised his head and saw that Bethel was speeding towards the incoming car. "What are you doing now?" he asked nonchalantly, turning his head behind, looking through the mirror at the back, he saw that they were still hot in purchase. He let out a soft chuckle and turned his face to the front, "Are you really going to let them have an accident now, in the middl
"Fuck!" Hudson cussed, walking into his house hurriedly, he pulled off his suit and threw it on the couch, loosening his tie while walking to the wine cellar.He pulled it open and took a bottle of liquor from it, opening it, he drank from the bottle directly, gulping it down his throat. His body was already covered in sweats, his chest was heaving up and down slowly.He heard the door being pushed open, he turned his eyes to see who walked in, knowing there was no one else in the compound apart from Bethel but he still felt that he had to check. His chest had been racing immediately he had seen Raphael step out of the car with that expression on his face. He remembered reading that his father had killed Raphael's son a few years ago and he had sworn to kill any of his children, if he gives birth to anyone. "Jeez, my father has a lot of enemies that are aiming for my head, not to talk of the ones that I would make," he said with a slight chuckle. "Fuck" he dropped the bottle on
Hudson sat up, resting his back on the headboard, pulling Alexis on his laps, her gown shifting up her laps, he pulled her closer to him, till their faces were just a few inches apart. He looked into her blue eyes, it was still evident that she wasn't over the fear and worry that she felt a while ago. He let out a soft chuckle, running his hand through her hair, he picked out a couple of strands and twirled it on his fingers, the expression on his face totally unreadable. "You don't have to worry, okay? If it's okay with you, I will always have at least two securities with me wherever I go. If I do that will you stop worrying about me?" he asked."Yes" she replied, nodding her head, she buried her face on his neck, with her arms wrapped around her shoulders. "Your work is so scary" she uttered in a low tone. "and I was fucking scared, so scared that my Hudson happened" "I know, baby, I know," he replied, laying her brown hair down softly, patting her back in the process. "I know
Hudson stepped into the sitting room with a bottle of wine in his hand and a couple of cups in his other hand, he saw his father and Alexis talking and laughing at intervals, Bethel was smiling at intervals, while listening to their conversation. She looked comfortable around him compared to a couple of minutes ago when she was so nervous. The edges of his lips curved up into a smile subconsciously, he loved the way she adapts to any situation. "This is the first time that I would be seeing you in my house since I moved in" Hudson said, handing a cup to each of them, he popped open the bottle and poured into each of their cups. "Not like you ever invited me in the first place" Mr. Alexandros replied, taking a sip from the cup. "Since when did the mighty Alexandros Stewart need an invitation?" Hudson asked with a feigned puzzled expression plastered on his face, sitting beside Alexis. "Tsk" his father sucked the air through his teeth, the room suddenly fell silent, Hudson was abou
FOUR MONTHS LATER Alexis sat nervously in the bedroom, dressed in her wedding gown but somehow she found herself sweating for absolutely no reason. The door opened slowly and Hudson walked in. "Hi babe... " "Hudson! You know it's not nice to see your bride in her wedding dress before she walked down aisle. ""I know... ""I just wanted to check up on you ""Now you have seen me, so just leave already before someone sees you here! By the way, how did you manage to get in here?" Alexis asked teasingly, with smiles in her face."Let's just say.. I sneaked in just to see how beautiful my bride looks. Truth be told Babe, you look absolutely stunning and I might just stay rooted at this spot and keep staring at you all day"Alexis blushed really hard as she tried to look down but Hudson held her jaw up."Don't! Let me keep looking" He said.She looked at him, straight into his eyes and all she could see was herself in it. She could see love in his eyes and that could only melt her heart
Chapter 134 Bethel stood in front of Kenny who was on his knees with his head busted, blood was dripping down his face. "What were you saying again?" he asked again. "What the fuck are you talking about, who the hell is Ethan?" he asked with a confused expression."Hudson is at the hospital with his wife that is the reason why he can't come here but he sent me specifically to greet you for him for the job well done that you carried out for Ethan or are you still going to keep up that stupid lies of yours that you just wanted to play a game with him?" he asked with a blank expression on his face, holding the bat with his hand but he placed it on his shoulder."I don't know what you are talking about but seeing that you came alone, I thought that you decided to be a real man and settle this with your fist and not beat up someone without a weapon," he said through gritted teeth with an angry expression on his face. "Well, if you think that I am scared of having a fair fight with you,
Chapter 133Hudson drove as fast as he could, jumping out of the car without slamming it close and before he even packed his car properly. Immediately he reached the entrance of the hospital, the people guarding the entrance bowed their heads to him slightly and let him walk past them into the hospital. He stopped at the counter, a ring heavy, "I am sorry, I am looking for someone named… Alexis Stewart, in this hospital" he said. "I am sorry, there is no one bearing that name in this hospital currently," she said with a calm voice which only irritated him, he groaned and ran his hand through his hair, looking frustrated and furious. "Fuck!" he muttered and turned away, he looked back at her, "Do you know me?" he asked, while pointing to his face, hoping she nods her head. She nodded her head slowly just like Hudson had expected, "Yes" she muttered, a smile making its way to her face, "Hudson Stewart, the number one richest and most powerful man, right?" "Yeah, yeah" he replied to
One down. Ethan was the first to lose a man, despite being the first to start the shooting. He was the only one taking proper cover, while the rest of them had confidence in their numbers being greater than the number of people on the other side. Seeing their behavior only made Hudson chuckle, he already knew they were going to have that thought and it was going to be to his advantage.He stayed in his car, with his hand on the trigger button, he had no intention of wasting bullets today. He turned to look at the person beside him and it only made him chuckle, he was lying down on the floor, pointing his gun through the hole under the car, he turned to look at Hudson and nodded his head. Hudson could already guess what he was trying to do but he needed to confirm, "Is it what I am thinking?" he questioned him and the lad nodded his head with a bright smile on his face. "I shoot the feet of someone since I have a very good aim, I am sure I won't miss and then once the bullet hit
Alexis was rushed to the emergency unit immediately after the attention of the doctor was called."Um… sir, can I have a few moments with you?" one of the doctors that was on duty said to Ethan, grabbing his attention. He turned to look at the doctor with a puzzled expression on his face, "A moment for what? How can I help you?" he asked with a harsh tone. "Do you do anything to make her unconscious, like do you by any chance hit her or something?" he asked, while making gestures with his hand and looking at him keenly. "What is giving you the thoughts that I would do such a thing to a woman that just gave birth? By the way, isn't that punishable by law?" he asked again, folding his arm on his chest. "Yeah sure it is, I am sorry for asking you such a ridiculous question, I don't know what came over me," the doctor said, running his hand through his hair and combing it backward, he shook his head and walked away. Ethan shook his head and stood up from where he sat, walking towards
“I want this call to be traced,” Hudson yelled, entering the place that was meant for the search for Alexis, all the equipment and technologies they needed were there, “Get working now! I want the exact location of the place” he barked at them. The people in charge of the tech and tracking quickly went to work and started the tracking of the call, it didn’t take long for them to locate where the call was coming from and immediately after they did, they sent the location to Hudson. He ended the call and looked up the place, it was a place that he knew too well, he ran outside as fast as his legs could carry him, immediately he got outside, he saw three more cars parked beside his car, Bethel popped his head out of the window of one, “Lead the way, let’s get moving” he yelled to Hudson. “How many people are available at the moment, I need at least five more extra, hope it is up to you,” Hudson said, pulling open the driver’s seat of his car, he stepped in and ignited the engine of hi
Ethan walked into the ward after Alexis was cleaned up, he turned to the nurses that were present in the ward with a puzzled expression, his eyes moving around the whole room, searching for something, where the newborn baby was but he couldn’t find him and it was getting on his nerves. “Where is the baby?” he asked suddenly with a calm voice but he didn’t get any response, he turned to one of the nurses who looked like she had a loose mouth and would spill anything if asked properly. “Sorry please, do you know where my baby is?” he asked, calmly with a worried tone. She stopped what she was doing and turned to face Ethan, flashing him a smile, she said, “I am so sorry but it seemed like the mother wasn’t in a good condition, she seemed stressed but emotionally and physically and this affected the baby, he is currently undergoing treatment, you just need to exercise a little patience and I am sure that you will see your baby in no time” she explained calmly with a sweet and assuring
Ethan walked up to the shade with a glass of red wine in one of his hands and a gossip magazine in his other free hand. Just like usual, he met Alexis seated there, doing nothing as usual, just staring at the garden and enjoying the cool breeze. It is only at periods like this that she looks alive but that doesn't seem to be the case here, she seemed different today, uncomfortable.Ethan raised the glass of wine to his lips, from the side of his eyes, he noticed her move uneasily on the chair that she was seated on. "Are you sure you are okay?" Ethan asked again with a worried tone for the umpteenth time. "Yes, yes, and yes and yes and yes and yes, how many times do you want to ask me that question and how many times do you want me to reply to you?" Alexis said with a hiss, rising to her feet. She walked past Ethan, with her hand on her stomach and a little difficulty, after taking a couple of steps past him, she let out a loud yell. Looking down, she saw the blood on the floor.
“I warned you, didn’t I?” Mr. Alexandros asked Hudson, immediately he stepped into his sitting room. Hudson jumped off his feet, “Oh, Dad, it’s quite a surprise to see you here without notice” Hudson said, forcing his lips to stretch into a smile. “Don’t deviate from the topic that we are discussing here” Mr. Alexxandros said while shaking his head, he had a very angry expression on his face. “Which topic is that, father?” Hudson asked, feigning a confused expression on his face and acting like he had no idea of what his father was talking about. “Oh, you know what I am talking about, Hudson, why would you attack Brandon?” his father asked.“Oh, that?” Hudson asked with a wave of his hand, a slight chuckle escaping his lips “Though I am very glad about how the idiot died when I heard the news, I mean he deserved that, the only thing that is making me not happy like I should is the fact that I am not the one that put a bullet through his skull” he said through gritted teeth. “You
