Alex pov

I arranged for some lawyers to hold a press conference and then I took my father's lawyer and he went to the press conference and the lawyer told the truth about Harry corporation, and how he bribed him to say that he was the one who was in my father's will to take over my father's company, and he also told the press that he would kill his family if he did not do all this ,so he had no other reason but to accept.

After the interview I also give all the information to the police that Harry forged my father's will, bribed the lawyer and did all that things that the lawyer had evidence for and it was all handed to be police and the media got wind of this and it was blowing up and they began going to Harry corporation to ask for what was happening.

Mom and I were chilling at home on the couch watching the tv , as we were enjoying watching Harry struggle to explain himself to the police and media.

“So you finally found a lawyer?”Mom asked.

She was very happy that all this problem

    They say that a poor man has no say in how the world treats him.I didn't want to believe it and wanted to stand firm on my belief, but life doesn't always work out the way you want it.Life always slaps you in the face with a sickening reality.The sky was bright and the scorching sun burned the skin of the man, who was tending to the garden.I was that man, disregarded and unwanted.I shouldn't be out in this hot sun for any damn reason, because it was literally burning my skin ,but the madam of the mansion, my dear mother in law, was dissatisfied with my earlier work.She practically yelled at me to get out of the house ,she said I didn't do a proper job tending to the garden, so I had to redo it all or I won't be allowed to eat this afternoon in peace and I knew I won't have peace of mind today, I couldn't afford to let that happen, since I just wanted to go to my room and rest.I was so focused on trimming the garden that I didn't pay attention to the scorching sun or the sweat b

    I shook my head to get rid of the intrusive thoughts.I can't leave my wife here to go in search of money and I can't work for someone else when my in law's company is successful, they might think I want to sell their business strategies to others.I should just forget it and be content with what I have now.I took in a deep breath and exhaled."Alex, just calm down, you can't do anything." I muttered to myself.I walked to the back of the mansion and got into the house through the back door.I proceeded to take a bath at the restroom close to the entrance of the back door of the mansion. I grabbed a trouser and shirt he saw hanging on the rank and wore it.This restroom is the one that the maid and butler mainly use, so it must be one of their clothes.I just wanted to wear this and get to my room, then I can change into my own clothes and wash this clothes and dry it and leave it back where I saw it.I knew that even though I took a bath ,if he wore my own clothes and Lisa or Mrs Ha

    I picked up the money and stood erect, and saw my sister in law Lisa coming towards men.I clicked my tongue in annoyance.I knew she had just come to bother me , she would say something about what just happened."If I give you more money ,will you also bend down and pick it, like a lowly cleaner you are, how about I give you money to clean my shoes?" She said as she tossed more money at me and I just clenched my fists and watched her.If not that she was a woman and I didn't want to get into trouble, I would have taught her a lesson, because I was sure she was the one taking the groceries I bought for myself and tossing it in the trash.Wicked bitch."Won't you pick up the money?" She asked mockingly and I just ignored her and walked past her.I would rather walk for a thousand miles to walk than take her money."Look at how you are acting like a proud man, when you don't even have money for a cab, useless man! Take the money or your stomach will feel the pain of your stupidity." She

    Different thoughts filled my head.Where?When?How did it happen and I didn't know?This can't be possible.My heart began drumming in my chest, I didn't know if it was out of fear of the answer I might find or if it was out of slowly building anger.I knew that I did not want to cause trouble in the company building or I would be thrown out, but I also needed an answer.Riley had to have a good explanation for this, or everyone in this company was going to hear about this, because I wasn't leaving without a fight.I dashed out of the restroom to confront my wife who was still talking to the employee.My wife and the employee turned to look at me, as I came out so suddenly."Get out!" I yelled at the employee while looking him straight in the eye."What?" The confused man asked in disbelief."I told you to get out!" I yelled more loudly at the person my wife was talking to.The employee flinched, turned to Riley, who was looking at Alex and scurried out of the office.Riley narrowed

    During the weekend after tending to the garden, I walked in to see Riley was sitting on the couch in the living room, when a maid got a glass of orange juice for her and dropped it on the table.Riley was deep in thoughts, she didn't even see me walk into the mansion.Riley looked at the tray of orange juice and an evil smile slowly formed in her face."Are you alright?" I asked her and she snapped out of her thoughts and turned to me."When did you get in here?" She asked in surprise."Just a minute ago." I responded."Oh." She mumbled and looked away as she took another sip from her glass cup.I proceeded to walk upstairs when I saw my father in law coming, thirty minutes after I was in the room.Riley opened the door and walked in , she was holding a tray of orange juice resting on the tray.I just finished tending to the garden and had changed into comfortable clothes. I was scrolling through his phone while resting on the bed when Riley walked in and I smiled.Even though I was s

    I knew this wasn't just something I can escape,it felt as if it was planned, because Riley wasn't crying anymore ,she was glaring at me ,so was her mother and the maid wasn't fearful ,she folded her hand and it was below her cheat, pushing her breast upwards and she has a smirk on her face.I have been framed."Will you sign it now?" He asked again and seeing the pain my hands were in I looked at Riley, my wife."Do you want to get divorced from me?" I asked her and she scowled."Yes, I don't want to be married to you anymore." She replied and I felt my heart sting a bit as my lips quivered."Fine, but don't post my pictures online." I said.I don't know what type of pictures they took, I just wanted to leave.It was evident that Riley did this deliberately."Don't make demands, I will give orders, you will follow it without questions." Mr Harry told me.The divorce paper was placed on a table with everyone looking at me.I wanted to sign it and saw Riley's signature there already."S

    "Ah! Help baby!" I heard in my sleep, as a slap landed on my face jolting me upright ,as I turned to see the assailant with my hand on my cheeks.It was morning and here I am seeing a girl in just a shirt in bed with me glaring at me."Who are you and how did you get in here?" I asked the girl."How dare you touch me?" She asked in anger and I was about to speak when the door burst open and my friend ran in."Baby what happened?" He asked the girl who ran to him and embraced me."He touched me!" She cried out ,as I got off the bed."What nonsense are you talking about? I just woke up and saw you in the bed, when did I touch you?" I asked her in annoyance.What is wrong with these women, framing me of things I didn't do?"Alex, how dare you assault my girlfriend ,when I gave you a room to sleep in?" Paul, my friend, asked me angrily, as he rushed to grab my collar and I was taken aback, as I tried prying his hands off my collar but it just tightened."L..let go..." I pushed him hard ,b

I heard a lady ask her colleague as I walked past them with a clear destination in mind."It is him ,what is that useless man doing in our company, doesn't he even remember that we are rivals?" One asked."I won't be surprised if he can't even remember the way to Harry corporation." Someone joked.They burst out laughing."You didn't see the news about his divorce yesterday?" An emp

I don't know what happened but I think that your ex father in law Mr Harry is illegally controlling that company because I do not think your father will ever give his company to anybody willingly or put it in a will and not give it to you.”She said.“Wait, are you saying that my ex-father-in-law's company is my father's company?” I asked in disbelief. “Yes it is.” Diana confirmed.“Why didn't you tell me this from the start?” I asked her because this was big news and she should have told me when we met. “Tha

Just as if it was on cue as she said those words my father began yelling.I don't know what he was yelling about but it must not be good since I could hear his voice from upstairs when he was downstairs I got up from the bed and headed out of my room to meet him. It was a bad idea to keep him waiting when he was this angry.My mother ,my younger sister ,me and my father were downstairs and my father began the interrogation.“Who deleted those pictures on my phone on my study computer?”He asked as he was pacing up and down.“What pictures are you talking about?” my mother asked because we did not know what he's talking about.“Someone delet

I just wonder why.”I told him. “You wonder why?”He asked me in confusion. “Why did you let your daughter treat me that way and why did your family treat me that way if you were such good friends with my father and had a close relationship with him,”I said.I cannot still understand why he would treat me so badly when he was an employee of my father and it made me wonder if my father treated him badly as well.It was as if he was taking out the anger and frustration he should take out on my father on me who was innocent.“How I behave is none of your business ,you should mind your business.”He warned me.“I'm just asking because I know nothing about my father,”I told him. I just wanted to know why he would treat

I was in my office signing some documents when my phone rang and I saw it was my mother and I happily answered the call.“Good afternoon Mom, what can I do for you?”I asked happily. “Can you come to my office immediately? There is something I need to talk to you about.”She said.Her voice sounded a bit stiff and I could tell that she was upset so I ended the call quickly. I rushed to meet her in her office and when I went there I could tell she was upset and not happy.“What happened Mom ,you sounded a bit worried on the phone?” I asked in concern. “The CEO of Harry Corporation sent something to me and he told me that if I threaten him again when he releases the products, he will release my private pictures online,”She said.“What are you talking about?”I asked.

How do you mean that I should pay him two million dollars the last time I came here, you told me to pay one million dollars now I told you his wife also insulted me, so why are you telling me to pay him money?” I asked in disbelief. What is going on here? Why is this judge always ruling against me?I am the woman and I was the one who got humiliated and I said nothing and she decided to rub salt in my open wound so why am I the one who is asked to compensate my ex-affair partner.“If you speak back at me again I will hold you in contempt of this court.”The judge glared at me.“But..”“That's enough you will sleep in jail if you continue." My lawyer advised me and I gasped in shock. I don't know if it is just me overthinking but I think that this judge has something against me ,because why would he always rule against me and rule in favor of the man?This is just too much.

Alex was the one who threatened him. Why did he come back and now come to take out his anger and frustration on me.“What you are doing this wrong, you know that I did nothing to you ,I am just at home doing nothing and waiting for you to call me back to work, if you don't want me to work for your company you tell me I will look for a job elsewhere!” I half yelled at
