As Xavier and Mr Thompson arrived at J&K Enterprises, he found Mr and Mrs Jenkins standing in front of the building."Is the situation that dire?" Xavier wondered, seeing as they both made serious faces while discussing something that appeared to be important.Xavier and Mr Thompson stepped out of the car and walked over to the couple, only to be given disdainful looks."What are you doing here?" Mrs Jenkins asked while her husband just kept his frown on."Did you forget that you have a fixed meeting with Mr Kaarel Constantine today?" Mr Thompson questioned."Well, I don't see him." Mr Jenkins said, crossing his arms as he adjusted his stance."This is Mr Xavier Constantine. He now works in place of his father who was to be expected here." Mr Thompson explained.Though Xavier knew he hardly needed to be introduced. These were Kelanie's parents. They're bound to already be aware of who Xavier was by now."Oh." Mtlrs Jenkins voiced, "In that case, he can go back. We do not need his or h
Xavier burst into the room, slamming the door behind him with a resounding thud. His anger was palpable, his jaw clenched as he pulled out his phone."Hello, sir." Mr Thompson answered the call."I need every information there is to get. About Kelanie Jenkins. The real one this time." Xavier demanded."Sir, this is getting out of hand. You should be focused on keeping the multiple companies handed to you by your father under your control. Since you became heir, there are naturally a lot of enemies that don't want you on top." Mr Thompson pleaded."I know all that and I am doing exactly all that. Kelanie is an enemy too and-""Sir, she is your ex-wife. I doubt she can harm the company in any way. Besides, you had her figured out and fired already." Mr Thompson persisted."Enough! I am the one in charge here and I demand you do as I sat! I wouldn't be doing this if it weren't important enough. Last time was for the company and the same can be said for this time." Xavier fumed, "Alexande
Immediately Xavier walked into the room, his heart drummed faster than ever before. He knew what they were trying to do, but what he didn't understand was why his ex-wife was now working with his brother Alex. His face squeezed, and then he banged his hand on the counter, feeling anger wash over him. The rage he felt when he was with her was something he couldn't even imagine. He knew how much of a snake those three were, and he wasn't going to let them succeed. "Fuck!" He yelled, running his hands through his hair. If only he could push the rage away, but this was the same woman who made sure to make him understand he was nothing. "She's the reason I ended up here!" He yelled, angry that she didn't stand by his side when he needed her the most. However, that was the past now. He needed to look to the future, and he needed to do that now. He was going to make sure they all crumbled. They all caused him pain and he was going to show them he wasn't a weak man as they thought. Fur
Kelanie stormed out of the room. Despite what she was wearing, he didn't even seem to flinch. She had prepared for seduction, and what she was putting on recommended that, but it didn't work out. "Maybe my thoughts earlier were wrong, maybe he doesn't even love me anymore..." She pondered, walking through the hallway to Alex's room. The mansion was a big place, and everywhere looked the same. However, going into Xavier's room was part of her plan. She wished to speak to him, to see if he was hurt, and she got her answer. He didn't even want to see her or be close to her. It was as though her presence disgusted him. "He's a different person now Kelanie. Did you expect him to open his arms to the woman who hurt him, only a fool would do that, and Xander is no fool!" Kelanie was in so much trouble that she didn't even realise that she was moving. If she was going to get her part, then she needed him to see her as before. She needed those emotions. Kelanie frowned. Howe
Kelanie blinked twice when she heard what Clarrissa said, she didn't know if she heard right. Was Clarrissa joking, or was she messing with her head? Her eyes slowly moved away from Clarrissa's face and then returned to her face again in a few seconds. Kelanie knew something was going on inside Clarissa's head, but due to how composed she was, Kelanie couldn't bring herself to guess what the matter was. She gulped, and frowned, trying to create the impression of how tough she was. To her, she knew Clarrissa would bring tests her way. "Did I hear you say need?" Kelanie scoffed. "Are you saying I have something that you need?" She asked again, but Clarrissa remained silent. There was something about the way she kept staring at Kelanie, causing Kelanie to shake inwardly. It was almost like Kelanie and Clarrissa weren't meant to be standing together. Clarrissa had held a grudge against Kelanie from the very moment she had set her eyes on her. She had seen Kelanie as one of those go
Xavier returned home really late. He had driven out of the house in anger but had somehow managed to calm himself down. As he stepped out of his car, he took quick steps to his room, and once he got there, he closed the door, and collapsed on the bed, heaving due to how tired he was. He went out for a ride around the city just to get the peace of mind he was looking for. Being surrounded by enemies wasn't the way he could handle it at this time. All he could think about was if things were ever going to be okay. Xavier just wished that Thompson was going to gather enough information for him by tomorrow because he wanted to know what was going on. He didn't seem to understand what was going on anymore. He didn't trust anyone except himself. “Tomorrow is the day I'll find out what you are up to, and trust me, you're going to all regret it.” He thought resting his head on the bed. The next day started a lot faster than he thought. He woke up early, and after having his bath, he
Kelanie woke up the next morning feeling a bit alright. Although she was still worried about the offer made to her last night, she had decided she wasn't going to let herself be used by that woman. Kelanie’s mind was made up. There was nothing Clarrissa would do to make her fall into the trap of working for her. Kelanie saw herself as her own boss, and not because she wanted anything else. She wanted to bring her ex-husband down and earn while doing it. “You seem lost In thought…” She had gotten up but didn't even notice he wasn't on the bed. He has a towel wrapped around his waist which means that he has just returned from the bathroom. “L-lost, no. Why would I be lost in thought?” She tried to cover up, wearing a forced smile. However, there was something about the way she was saying it that caused him to doubt. “I know I'm not supposed to care because you aren't my real girlfriend, but I think I'm cool with you, so I'm going to ask. Are you sure you're alright?” Kel
Alex's eyes widened. He didn't expect what he was hearing. He turned towards Kelanie the moment his mother said something like that. After all, the hadn't made any such plans with Kelanie and he clearly remembered what she was putting on that night. “Answer the question Kelanie, or have you finally gone dumb?” Clarrissa asked with raised brows and a smirk on her lips. “I-I don't know what you're talking about. I was–” Clarrissa laughed. “Don't tell me you think you're smart. I have a Video of you in three. Do you think I'm stupid?” Alex was more confused. He darted his eyes between his mother, and Kelanie, anger filling him. “Is what my mother saying the truth?” Alex threw another question, making Kelanie swallow. She was more worried about everything now than before. Now she knew Alex was someone who followed his mother's every word. “She can't answer because she knows that's the truth. You see what I'm telling you? She can never be trustworthy. I don't trust her, and no mat
