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
Hudson stepped out of a black sports car, walking into the abandoned warehouse that belonged to him, it was a different warehouse from the one where he had tortured Bertelli. There was a cold expression on his face, the air around him was suffocating; danger that was it. He didn't put any restraint on the personality he put on this time at all, this was the part of him he had said he would bury off but because of Alexis, he is willing to pick it up again. He stepped into the warehouse with a frown on his face, he was expecting to see only one person in there like he had ordered to but instead, there are two people there. One was bound to a chair, from where he was, he could tell that it was a female, the person leaning on the bronze bull opposite her, judging from the build under the black suit the person was wearing, he could tell that it was a guy, he had a lit cigar in between his fingers that was placed on the bronze bull, he couldn't tell what was in his second hand. Hudson
Hudson's phone buzzed on the table for the umpteenth time during the board meeting, he grit his teeth and shook his head, moving his gaze from the person speaking to his phone, he had even lost count of how many times this same caller had called. His countenance changed, a worried expression slowly made way to his face, the name on the screen is Tony. Tony is the guy he had assigned secretly to watch every of Rebecca's movement.He held his hand up, gesturing that they should fall silent and they did immediately, he picked the call, raising his phone to his ear. "Wait a minute," he said and raised his head to face the board members. "This meeting is postponed, we will meet in the next fifteen minutes". All the board members left immediately he had said that. He put his phone on speaker and placed I it on the table, walking towards the door, he locked the door and headed back to his seat. Instead of seating on the chair, he sat on the edge of the table beside his phone and folded
Ethan sat behind his desk with his phone in his hand, he had his back turned towards the door. Even though he had his door locked, he still made sure to keep his mask within reach, he didn't want what happened almost two weeks ago to repeat itself, if it was another person, he would have ordered for the death of the person. He had a disturbing expression on his face, as he scrolled through the internet, the first thing that appeared was the death of Rebecca Wright, he had been planning on using her as his pawn in his big game of getting Alexis back but now… she is dead, the burnt beyond recognition body has been identified to be her own. The news of her death was not what caused the disturbed expression on his face, it was the mysterious person behind her death who has killed her brutally. He knew Rebecca to be cunning but she makes sure to always avoid trouble which brought up a couple of questions on his mind.Which crime did she commit to get her killed?The disturbed expressio
Evans let out a loud but short laughter, a serious expression suddenly made its way to his face when he noticed that he was the only one laughing. He turned to look around, "Wait, that wasn't a joke?" he asked with a puzzled expression on his face suddenly. "I am not joking, Evans," Ethan said with a stern expression. "You've got to be kidding me, Ethan. Down here I am like a beast but the game up there in a world of families like the Stewarts, I am nothing" he replied, he wasn't fazed or ashamed at all by stuffs like that, he had come to the decision that he would maintain his position down here as one of the most feared, no desires to expand his territory any further than it already is, it would only seem like he is asking for death for not only himself but for him and all of his men that are ready to die for him. "Whatever stupid thing you have up in your head and whatever stupid game you are playing with Hudson don't bring it anywhere near me at all" he said, rising to his fee
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
