It's been a few days since Bertelli had been sent back home on a plane, he had recovered fully, his hand was already treated before he even came back. He walked into the garden, to where his father was seated with a cigarette in between his lips. His father was seated on a chair in the garden under a shade with a magazine in his hand. Immediately Bertelli got to where his father was, he dropped the cigarette he was smoking on the ashtray placed on the table in between them. He cleared his throat, "So are we going to ignore this father, since I came back, we have never for once talked about this before, anytime you notice that I am about to bring it up, you always find an excuse to leave my presence or you just leave like that."Talk about what, Bertelli? I don't see anything to talk about and I am pretty sure that I haven't been avoiding anything" his father replied, not taking his eyes off the magazine in his hand. "You barely even look at me Dad, what do you mean when you say th
"It was just a simple task, a fucking simple task that could have been easily carried out by you with the appropriate resources at your disposal" Ethan pressed his phone to his ear, talking to the person on the other end of the line. "You know what? Fuck you!" Bertelli's voice came from the other end of the line, he sounded so pissed off. "Screw you asshole, you are a real pussy in a man's flesh. I can't imagine Bertelli, a descendant of the great Romanov, is shying away from a battle," Ethan shook his head, "The mighty have really fallen" he said. "I guess you don't know who you are talking to, I should probably come after you myself and let's see if you will still have the balls to talk to me that way" Bertelli said with a calm tone, completely different from the way he spoke earlier. "If you ain't a pussy, why are you hiding behind a mask, digging for info about you there was none, no identity at all. That's what real pussies do, if you ain't one, stop hiding behind a mask and
Alexis walked inside the house, just as usual for the past few days, Hudson is nowhere to be found in the sitting room, it feels like he is barely in the house at all when he is in it, he comes back from work early nowadays. He always acts like he is busy with one thing or the other, barely giving her attention like before for reasons unknown to her but she could tell that something is wrong from his facial reactions. She dropped her bag on the chair and walked straight to his office room, hoping to see him there like always after finding out he is not in the bedroom but she didn't find him there. She heard a sound coming from the pool and walked towards there, hoping to see him and she did find him there. She couldn't tell if he took notice of her and was just pretending not to or he haven't really seen her yet.She took off her clothes, leaving only her bra and panties and went straight to the pool, sitting at the edge of it, dipping her legs into the water. She shivered a bit
Hudson walked into the building of the Stewart Empire headquarters, everyone bowed their heads in greetings immediately, they saw him. He slipped his hand into his pockets responding to greetings he could with a faint smile on his face and a slight nod of his head. His eyes moving around, it fell on someone who was heading towards the HR department office, dressed up neatly in a well ironed suit and a bag in his hand.Hudson recognised him immediately and turned his face to the side, giving the former a clearer view of his face. He let out a scoff, muttering the name of the brown haired dude. "Edward " He still looked the same as he looked like two and a half years ago, only a few more changes, more facial hair appeared on his face, though they were neatly shaped. Hudson walked into the elevator, heading into his office. He looked at the secretary, who raised her head to greet him immediately he entered. "Tell the HR department to send in a certain Mr. Edward with brown hair t
The knock on the door interrupted Alexis ongoing speech, she raised her head, facing the door with a slight frown on her face, her secretary knows better than to disturb her whenever she is in a meeting. "Come in" she said. The door was pushed open immediately, her secretary walked in and bent close to her ear, whispering, "Ma, Mr. Hudson is here and I told him to sit in the waiting room".Alexis remembered pleading to him in the morning to pick her up from work, she didn't want to be in the presence of the bodyguards Hudson told to protect her, they are a bit scary. She took a look at the time, it a few minutes past the time she had told him to come pick her up. "Let him come in, I am almost done with this gentlemen" she said, moving her gaze to the two men sitting opposite her. They are dressed in a three piece suit, from the looks on their faces, one can tell that they are not getting what they came here for."Ok ma'am" her secretary nodded, walking out of her office and Huds
Rebecca Wright knocked on the door of the chairman of the company repeatedly but there was no response, she turned the door knob and pushed it open. The office was empty, with no one in it. There was a file she held in her hand, it contained information of what the chairman is to know ahead of their next meeting, it was something that needed his huge attention. This is the first time that someone would actually come into this office without the chairman being in there, she could tell. She dropped the file on the table and was about to turn away when something interesting caught the corner of her eyes and she was forced to stay longer than she expected. She picked up the picture, silently hoping that he was the one that was going to be there but what she saw shocked her, her eyes widened as she saw that the person in the picture is none other than Alexis. Her eyes widened the more, the show on her face, stretched the more after she realises that there was more photo of her. Je
Alexis walked down the stairs of the Stewarts private jet with Hudson walking closely behind her with his hands buried into his pockets. Alexis had a curious look in her eyes, she couldn't tell where they were or where they were headed. A limousine parked in front of them and someone got down hurriedly, opening the door for them. Alexis didn't recognise who the person was so she had a puzzled expression on her face, looking back at Hudson to confirm whether she should enter or not, he nodded his head and she proceeded inside. "Mr. Stewart," the young man said with his head bent slightly. "Stefan" Hudson nodded his head and proceeded inside the car. Sitting on the same side with Alexis, Stefan shut the door. Immediately she entered the car. "Where are we going?" Alexis asked immediately if the engine of the car was ignited. "Well, we are here now, so there is nothing to hide," he began, intertwining their fingers together, he raised it up and kissed the back of her hand. "I
Hudson moved Alexis off his body gently, walking over to the balcony with his phone in his hand. Looking up at the sky, the moon sat in the middle of the dark sky in it's crescent shape, surrounded by a few dark clouds and a few bright sparkling stars, he moved his face downwards to the city, there was barely any single soul left outside, everyone must have gone home for the day, a couple hours ago, what do they want to be doing outside n the middle of the night after all. He went into his call log and tapped on the name at the top, it was "Ben" he placed his phone against his ear. The call was picked on the second ring. "How is the search going?" Hudson asked, the tone of his voice was different, cold, void of any emotions, just cold but it also sounded deadly. "We have found a lead sir, she seems to know that we are after her and had plunged into hiding but she left some trails behind her, I am sure that before noon, we would have gotten her" Ben replied. "She?" Hudson asked to
