Xavier's Ultimate Return To Glory Chapter 020
Night...The fluctuating lights of the nightclub bathed Alexander in a kaleidoscope of colours as he leaned in, trying to charm the pretty woman with a dazzling smile. A day hadn't even gone by and he was out celebrating his victory over Xavier."I'm rich, tall, handsome, and can get this princess whatever she wants," Alexander bragged to the lady, "what more can you want than a man who carries out your every desire?"The lady smiled and Alexander knew he could capture her heart in no time. But just as he was about to deliver his smoothest line, his phone pierced through the thumping bass of the nightclub.He excused himself, weaving through the crowd until he found himself outside the club."Mom?" he answered, his voice tinged with annoyance."Where are you, Alexander?" Clarissa's voice crackled through the phone.Alexander rolled his eyes. "Just out celebrating. What's the big deal? Why did you call me?""The big deal is that we're supposed to be sad and crying over your father who

"You fucking bastard! How could you?!" Clarissa screamed, charging towards Xavier and hitting his chest repeatedly, "what did he ever do to you that made him deserve death?!" she shouted, "You just killed my only son, damn it!"Xavier rolled his eyes and caught hold of Clarissa's hands, "he tried to poison me, and then collaborated with you in framing me for a crime I didn't commit. It doesn't surprise me that a woman like you doesn't give a fuck about her husband's condition and is just covering up for your son." Xavier answered, throwing Clarissa's hands down.Clarissa recoiled in horror, her mind struggling to process Xavier's words. The shock of it all threatened to overwhelm her as she stared at him, her eyes filled with a mixture of disbelief and anguish. "That's not true," she whispered, her voice barely audible as she struggled to comprehend the betrayal of her son. "Alexander would never do something like that."Xavier's gaze remained steady, his expression hardened by resent

Xavier stood by the sidelines, his arms crossed as he watched the press berate Clarissa with questions as soon as she stepped out of the morgue with Alex, the same way the journalists had rushed at him.The look on her face was priceless. A moment he wish he could record and store to look at one day in the future and laugh.Clarissa had stepped out, supporting her son, Alexander, while he walked with his arm over her shoulder, not knowing that Xavier himself had sent the lawyer to make sure that different news channels were present.As Clarissa and Alexander emerged and were sighted by the press, the press swarmed them, cameras flashing, microphones thrust forward. Questions bombarded Clarissa from all sides, a chaotic cacophony of accusations and demands for answers."Did you spread the false news about Alexander's accident?""Nothing like that happened," Clarissa answered with a frown on her face."How could you not know your son was alive?" Clarissa began to ignore their question

"That was not what we agreed on!" Xavier charged forward as soon as he sighted Clarissa in the mansion.Clarissa had just helped Alexander sit down."And what exactly had we agreed?! Wasn't the deal that I cleared your name? Didn't I do exactly that?!" Clarissa shouted, "Just look at Alexander's condition and you think I would throw him into jail with my words?""You lied to the press," Xavier said."I did what I had to, to save my son. I cleared your name according to the deal we made. I owe you nothing. We are even." Clarissa stood her group, exchanging death glares with Xavier before the lawyer stepped in and she returned to cater for her son."Mr Xavier, we need to hurry up and get to the company headquarters as soon as possible." the family lawyer, Mr Thompson, informed."Why? What happened?" Xavier inquired, leaving Clarissa as a problem to be dealt with another time as he gave the lawyer his full attention."It's the board of directors. They are holding a meeting to vote you of
Xavier's Ultimate Return To Glory Chapter 024
"Now," Xavier leaned forward, his voice steady and authoritative. "Did you all mistake me for a meagre CEO or just a poor illiterate who you can deceive into stepping down from his position?"The room fell silent, the tension thickening as each board member weighed their words carefully. Xavier's challenge hung in the air, daring anyone to oppose him.Standing up, Xavier turned and looked at the lawyer, "Who was my father's assistant?""That would be me, sir." Mr Thompson's answer shocked Xavier. He's the family lawyer and Mr Kaarel Constantine's assistant at the same time. That explains why he was the one who informed Xavier about the meeting."Well, you are full of surprises yourself." Xavier complimented, "See to it that every member of the board of directors is fired and replaced with immediate effect.Shocked faces spread throughout the room among the board of directors."Sir, you cannot do this. It's uncalled for. We always do our work right. Mr Kaarel handpicked us himself." M

Kelanie adjusted her clothes as she approached the towering glass building of Constantine Enterprises, her steps purposeful and confident. She had meticulously prepared for this moment, rehearsing her responses to potential interview questions and ensuring her resume highlighted her extensive experience in corporate strategy.Pushing open the gleaming glass doors, Kelanie stepped into the pristine lobby, greeted by the hushed murmurs of employees bustling about their daily tasks. The grandeur of the surroundings only fueled her determination as she made her way to the reception desk, where a polished young woman looked up from her computer screen with a polite smile."Good morning, welcome to Constantine Enterprises. How may I assist you?" the receptionist inquired, her voice professional yet warm.Kelanie returned the smile, her demeanour composed yet brimming with ambition. "Good morning. My name is Kelanie Kelanie, and I'm here to apply for a position in the strategic planning de

As Xavier's eyelids fluttered open early in the morning, he yawned and stretched, feeling the stiffness in his muscles slowly dissipate. Just as he was about to swing his legs out of bed, there was a soft knock on the door."Come in," Xavier called out, rubbing his eyes.The door creaked open, and Henry stepped inside, a serious expression etched on his face. In his hands, he held two folders, one thick and one lean, each labelled with Xavier's name in bold letters."Good morning, Mr. Xavier," Henry greeted, his voice low and respectful. "These came in for you. They are from Mr Thompson.""Alright, just place them in the drawer there," Xavier replied, pointing to the wooden dresser at the far end of the room. Henry nodded, carefully setting the folders down before retreating towards the door. As he reached for the handle, he hesitated, glancing back at Xavier."Is there anything else you need, sir?" Henry inquired, his gaze unwavering.Xavier shook his head, offering a reassuring smi

Alexander walked around the table to get to Xavier but Clarissa blocked his way, both of them staring into each other's eyes and Clarissa's appearing like a warning to her son.Xavier's chair shifted back as he stood up, grabbing their attention, "excuse me." he said and left."Fuck!" Alexander exclaimed, slamming his fist on the table."What was all that about, Alexander?" Don't you have self-control? Must you react to everything?" Clarissa questioned, a frown on her face as she furrowed her eyebrows at Alexander."You saw that he started it. How come I'm the one at fault?!" Alexander shouted."Because you had the option to ignore him which you didn't do," Clarissa answered."How can I sit back and let a good-for-nothing bastard insult me freely?!" Alexander pointed out, "Did you forget what he was before all this?!""I didn't. And I promise you, I'll draw up something. He won't last long here especially when he has no idea how things work in the lives of the wealthy." Clarissa state

“What do you think you are doing here?” Mr Jenkins growled. Kelanie stood shocked by the animosity in his voice. “Dad” she whispered tears flowing down her cheeks, she had just arrived the house and her father wouldn’t even let her through the front door. “Dad” kelanie called, her voice cracking as she tried to speak. “Let’s settle this inside,” Mrs Jenkins said, trying to calm the tension. Kelanie smiled softly at her mother, one thing was certain, her mother was going to make it right.“No, she can’t come in here, she has done enough already, we can’t afford such bad press now” her father hissed.Kelanie frowned, “bad press? If I do recall correctly, it was you that made me literally throw my life away all because of some image that you wanted to protect,” kelanie yelled.Mr Jenkins looked unbothered by her words, kelanie was a grown woman who knew the path of right and wrong.“yes, I pushed you I’ll admit to that fact, but you my dear have been terrible at every decision you ha

Xavier stood with a smug look on his face. This was just the cherry on the top, proving to kelanie that he was in fact Mr kareel’s son. Kelanie looked at the paper in her hand, they had stripped her of everything. She had no Alex, no money and definitely no house to stay. “Turn on the television,” Peggy said in a hurried tone ordering the maid that stood by the corner of the living room. “Tonight we would be airing a series which is a documentary on the life of Xavier Constantine and how he had missed a bullet, and the fails of a vengeful ex-wife kelanie Jenkins.” The air hostess said. Kelanie gasped, this was what melody was trying to warn her about. This was the show melody was gathering information about her for. Kelanie’s phone dinged, “there’s no way to hide, get my money ready,” the message read. Kelanie didn’t have to ask who it was, it was obvious the message was from Mr Russell. The protection kelanie had from the Constantine name was gone. There was nothing holding hi

Camera flashed. Melody was the first to get wind of the information, someone in the Constantine’s staff had told her of the big show down that was happening. This was bigger than she had anticipated, her mole was clearly undermanned and she was thinking for thinking ahead.Loyalty could weaver at the right price.Clarissa tried to hide her face, hoping to not be captured by the pressing as the police led her into the waiting vehicle. Mr kareel wasn’t bothered about the appearance of the press, he was in turn going to give a speech at the end of the day. Mr kareel turned his gaze to Alex who looked like he was a few seconds away from passing out. “Alex,” Mr kareel called out gently. “fa.. Mr kareel,” Alex replied, fumbling over the words. It was obvious he was about to call Mr kareel father before he quickly caught himself. Mr kareel smiled, it was sad to see Alex go through the crimes Clarissa had committed. “I will be taking nothing from you, everything you have owned, they a

Clarissa stood in shock, her first layer of armor had been taken away. Her lawyers had barely spared her a glance, standing with their faces to the ground. “Let’s take a trip down memory lane, shall we?” Mr kareel said enjoying the way Clarissa looked.“This is a forensic and post partum analysis I had done on my dead wife,” Mr kareel said giving the file to Peggy to pass the papers around.Xavier eagerly snatched the paper from Peggy’s hand, his eyes wide as he read through the details listed out.Xavier’s eyes watered as he saw a picture of his mother, her hazel eyes were a shade darker than his and Xavier could tell that he had gotten his nose from his mother.Angelica’s eyes watered, seeing the dejected look in Xavier’s face. She could feel how broken he was feeling and wished he didn’t have to sit through this.“I’m here,” Angelica whispered into Xavier’s ears, squeezing his palm softly, silently giving him comfort.Xavier nodded, his throat clogged as he read through the detail

Mr kareel had always suspected the eagerness Clarissa had, she had used his mourning period to accomplish her plans. Mr kareel couldn’t remember what had happened, and all his life, he had never been that drunk to the point of blacking out. All Mr kareel could remember was waking up to a sobbing Clarissa in a room filled with bottles of alcohol littered around. The only person to fill in the gaps had conveniently been Clarissa, she had some how convinced the rest of the maids and workers to take a day off.It was also during the period that Mr Thompson was swamped in the office, since Mr kareel was too heart broken to function.The next few weeks were a blur to Mr kareel, all he had was Clarissa and a constant headache every morning from how heavy he had apparently been drinking.It was crazy how all Mr kareel could ever recall was just the first glass Clarissa had offered, and the rest was just a blank space of nothing.Clarissa had been very careful with her actions, she kept him

Kelanie followed Alex around like a shadow. She was scared of Clarissa attacking her again. Kelanie frowned, watching Angelica and Xavier walk into the living room. If eyes were bullets, then Xavier and Angelica would have been six feet under by now. Kelanie knew it was Angelica that had made all these plans, trying to pay her back for everything she had done. “Fix your face” Alex hissed, looking at kelanie with an unimpressed look on his face. It was a wonder how kelanie still had the energy to hate people in this situation that they had found themselves in. Clarissa sat by the corner alone, glaring at kelanie who hasn’t left her son’s side for a minute. “she needs to leave,” Clarissa growled, pointing her fingers at kelanie. “She is a serpent who has done nothing but create havoc on this family,” Clarissa hissed. “nothing good has happened since she stepped into this house,” Clarissa hissed. Kelanie frowned, she couldn’t understand why Clarissa was still picking on her when
Chapter 176
The house was eerily quiet.The only sound that could be heard was Clarissa sniffling in the corner of the living room.The truth was dropped like a devastating blow, no one had survived it, at least for Kelanie and Clarissa.Xavier sat quietly in the room, his eyes had a forlorn look in them, he felt nothing but pity for Alex.It was devastating how Alex was the one suffering the brunt of Clarissa’s wrong doings.Xavier wasn’t much of Alex’s fan but he could only imagine how he must be feeling.“Father,” Xavier called out in a calm tone to his father.“something is on your mind,” Mr kareel said, hating the despair in Xavier’s eyes.“What is the plan for Alex?” Xavier asked in a soft voice, worry swirling in his eyes as he looked at his father.Mr kareel sighed, he wasn’t entirely heartless, he had made sure that nothing would be taken away from Alex’s trust fund account.“he is going to be sent off with enough money to start up something,” Mr kareel muttered.Relief washed over Xavie

Clarissa ran after Mr kareel, tears flowing down her cheeks, she couldn’t believe she was about to lose everything. “Kareel, don’t do this,” she cried, pushing Angelica out of the way. Xavier rushed, pulling Angelica to his side, shielding her from the crazed woman. “Clarissa,” Mr kareel called in a low tone.Clarissa saw it in his eyes, his mind had been made up, there was nothing she could do any longer. “We have all been victims of your lies,” Mr kareel said. He wasn’t really in the mood to talk, he had accepted the truth a long time ago, he had only refused to make the information public so that he wouldn’t he burdened by the weight of it any longer. “My lawyers will contact you,” Mr kareel hissed, storming into the room. Clarissa knelt on the floor watching his retreating figure. She knew her husband was a vicious business man, who had survived a whole lot of storm in his years. Clarissa knew they wasn’t much she could do, Mr kareel wasn’t a very forgiving man who would f
