The air was thick with tension, no one moved or said a thing as they waited with bated breath. “Will I ever be enough for you?” Alex asked again. Mr kareel sighed, he could see that Alex’s troubles were deep rooted, caused from emotions bottled in for so long. Mr kareel could see it in Alex’s eyes that the boy was going through something and he couldn’t help but wonder the things that had happened in his absence. “Alex, you have never been a bad kid, but the decisions you made, the consequences are affecting the company,” Mr kareel said. “And for whether you are enough, I have never compared you to my son Xavier, we all have our potentials,” je replied smoothly. Angelica hid her smile, Mr kareel had been a true business man, he had answers the questions tactically without having to disclose much. It was funny they had missed on the fact, that Mr kareel had not ones claimed Alex as his son, which further proved that they were only fishing for information and wanting to be in the
“Why have you been ignoring my calls?” Kelanie hissed into the phone. Philip Russell released a long sigh, he had thought that the distance he had put between them would save him from her troubles. “I’ve been busy,” Philip Russell said, with a bored tone. “How are you coming along with the board meeting?” Kelanie asked eagerly, she had waited all week for his feedback and had gotten nothing. Philip Russell couldn’t believe that she hadn’t figured it all out yet. “I hope you don’t think you can cross me, because you better get that fairytale out of your damn mind,” Kelanie sneered. “Kelanie,” Philip shouted, cutting her off from her rant. “there’s no board of directors seat,” he said in a tired voice. “What do you mean? We signed the documents,” Kelanie hissed. “It was all a faux, nothing there was real,” he sighed. “but.. but,” Kelanie stuttered, looking around the room in surprise. “I suggest you get the hell out of there, my uncle is in town and I don’t know what the hell
Kelanie had a plan in mind, she knew Xavier was asking out of spite for what she had to him. She was going to make sure Mr kareel liked her, Alex had mentioned that his father had a soft spot for women and he hated seeing the cry. Kelanie had a plan formed in her mind as she dressed up for brunch. She was going to show Angelica that it took more than a few letters to scare her. Angelica bit back a laugh, she hadn’t expected less of Kelanie, it would have been too easy if she backed away. “Sorry I am late,” Kelanie said in a sickening sweet voice. “baby had a different thought today,” Kelanie said, patting her stomach, with a smirk on her face as she looked at Angelica. Mr kareel nodded, “lets go,” he muttered, leading the girls to the cute yard. Kelanie looked confused, they had agreed to do brunch but why where they going towards the courtyard, she looked around in with a puzzled look. “I hope you don’t mind the change, but Angelica had suggested we used the courtyard rather
It’s been two days since Mr kareel dropped the bombshell. Clarissa and Kelanie have been walking on egg shells around the house, scared of when the other show might drop. Kelanie’s phone beeped, it was a message from a spy she had paid to keep an eye on Philip Russell.“Philip is around, you need to get here fast before he makes a run for it again,” the text read.Kelanie rose gently from the bed, and quickly dressed up in comfortable clothes.She was finally going to confront Philip about all the money he had been taking from their account.Kelanie laughed, Philip Russell was really daft if he thought she wouldn’t notice the transactions he had been doing, she had bribed the bank to alert her of every transaction that was being made in the account.Kelanie had almost dropped dead when she noticed the account had been emptied.“I’ll make you rue the day you crossed me, Philip,” she hissed to herself.“Where are you going this early,” Alex asked in a groggy voice, rubbing the sleep o
Kelanie sat quietly in her car, she had finally calmed herself down after crying for almost an hour. “Alex,” she sniffled, trying to hide the tremble in her voice as she picked his call. “Hey, I was wondering when you would be back, dad wanted to see everyone,” Alex said into the phone. Kelanie rubbed her throat in confusion, today just seems to be getting better and better. “I really can’t right now, but I’ll try to be home as soon as I can make it,” Kelanie whispered, a tiny sob breaking out of her. “are you crying?” Alex asked, in voice dripping with worry at the tone of her voice. “no, no, just my allergies acting up,” Kelanie quickly deflected. “okay, stay safe, and get back as soon as you can,” Alex said ending the call. Kelanie felt dejected, everything was moving too fast and she barely had control over it. Her phone rang startling her from her internal musing, “melody,” Kelanie picked up the call, trying to keep her voice steady. “hi Kelanie, so glad I could get to
Kelanie knew a failed mission when she saw one. Mr Kane was proving to be difficult, and he was getting on kelanie’s last nerves. “Mr Kane, I believe we can work something out,” kelanie purred, batting her eye lashes at him. If one thing was certain, it was kelanie knew the act of seduction, in fact she had gotten to these places in life because of that very act. Mr Kane kept a bored expression, he wasn’t new to this line of persuasion by desperate women. One thing was certain, the company had been warned about kelanie and her schemes. “I am sure you could let this slide, and just sign off the money,” kelanie said in a sultry tone. Kelanie smirked, mistaking Mr Kane’s bored look for interest. Mr Kane was not only a great accountant, but he had the perfect poker face, which made it difficult for kelanie to really know what he was thinking. “if you do this for me, I would surely make sure that you are considerate for the next in line as the CFO,” kelanie smirked, seeing as the
Clarissa waited by Mr kareel’s door, hoping to get a chance to catch him alone. Peggy turned the corner, to see her standing by the door. “Good, I have been waiting for you,” Clarissa said, glaring at Peggy with a hard look on her face. Peggy looked unfazed by her tone, the power Clarissa thought she had on her was gone, and Peggy no longer felt fear for the woman. “Open the door, I need to speak with my husband,” Clarissa said in a rude voice. “I can’t do that,” Peggy said in a calm tone. Xavier had been smart to install a smart lock on the door, limiting the number of people that tried to get in contact with Mr kareel. Clarissa frowned, they were getting on her nerves, acting like they were above her, forgetting that they were in her house. “You will open this door or else,” she growled, her eyes fixed in a hard glare. “and what are you doing to do?” Angelica said, making her presence known. “You can’t stop me from seeing my husband,” Clarissa hissed. Angelica smirked, wa
The drive home wasn’t as smooth as it was meant to be. Kelanie’s mind was filled with thoughts, scenarios of how everything could finally go down in shit. “Alex honey,” kelanie whispered, picking the call on its first ring. “It’s almost time and you are yet to be here,” Alex muttered, he sounded unimpressed with her antics. Kelanie rolled her eyes, she had had enough of men trying to tell her how to act and not act. “Alex, if I drive any faster, I’m going to kill myself and our baby, do you want that?” she asked. “no,” Alex said in a low tone, he hated whenever kelanie went all dark and said things like this. “I’m sorry, but just get here as soon as you can, I love you,” Alex said. Kelanie rolled her eyes, ending the call without responding to him. Today had been terrible, she had left feeling great only to be trapped in a huge debt with Mr Russell and also have a somewhat embarrassing moment in the company, thanks to Xavier and Mr Kane. Now hearing that the police are lookin
