Kevin collected the glass of whiskey from Alex Banks. He had been drinking all night,he couldn't wrap his head around what had been happening.

"You should stop drinking now, you have drank a lot already"

Kevin said.

"How is Clara doing?" Alex asked.

"Why are you asking me, you should go and see her for yourself" Kevin said.

"I don't think I can face her right now " Alex Banks said burying his face in his hands.

"Did you find out anything about the man?" Alex Banks asked.

Kevin stood up and looked at him,"I know who he is but I won't tell you until you stop drinking " Kevin said firmly. Alex dropped his glass and returned the whiskey bottle to the shelf.

"I've stopped drinking,so tell me " Alex banks said.

"It was Hugo, Maya's personal bodyguard " Kevin spilled the beans.

"What are we going to do with that bitch , it's so difficult to find her. She's like a fox, very clever and cunning " Alex Banks said.

    Quinn Stark was led into the office by the secretary. She's walked into the office while the secretary bowed and left.She ignored Kevin who was sitting on the armchair and walked up to Alex Banks. He was looking out the window, turning his back against her."Say whatever you want to say and leave" Alex Banks said coldly."I want to talk to you in private,so send Kevin out" Quinn said.Kevin stood up and left,he didn't want to look at Quinn. He had always disliked her since the first time they met.Alex Banks sat on his chair and looked at Quinn closely. She wore a short blue dress that showed her thighs, and her breasts were almost popping out of the dress. She wore heavy accessories and tied her hair in a ponytail. Quinn smiled as she felt his gaze on her body. She sat on his laps and put her arm around his neck."Do you miss me, baby" She said and kissed his temple."What are you doing?" Alex Banks whispered in her ear. Quinn felt her body shiver as she felt his hot breath on her

    Alex Banks fed Clara another spoon of porridge. He took another spoon and brought it to her mouth but she refused to take it."I'm really full, Alex . I can't take anymore of that" Clara said pulling her face away."The doctor said that you can't take spicy foods. He recommended porridge for you, it'll help you recover fast so just take one more spoon" Alex Banks coaxed her."One more spoon,you said that about five spoons ago. I'm not eating anymore and you can't force me " Clara said stubbornly."If you don't finish this , I'll ask the doctor not to discharge you tomorrow " Alex Banks said smiling."How dare you threaten me? I don't care if I'll have to remain here for a long time. I'm not listening to you again " Clara said and turned her back against him.Alex Banks sighed,he was already stressed and now this."I'm sorry,baby. I'll put the food away" Alex Banks said and the food was carried away in no time. Clara turned and smiled at him.Alex Banks held her hands,"Is something bo

    Don gathered his men to his hideout. He planned to get rid of Alex Banks the next day. He sat down in the middle of the old room and smoked his cigarette."We'll move out tomorrow to take down, Alex Banks" Don's right hand man said."He is going to be at the new hotel construction site and that's where we'll attack him" "We'll go in as construction workers and wait for him to come out" the right hand man continued ."We must make sure to kill the target. If we fail then you're all finished" Don threatened.**********Mabel ran down the stairs while Alex Banks carried her luggage. She wore a black polka dot flare dress with a headband on her hair complementing her outfit. She jumped in her pink slippers like a child. She was in her late 20's but she looked like an eighteen year old teenage. She was always looking bright and smiling. The servants watched how Alex Banks carried her luggage outside the door and Mabel followed behind.Alex Banks put her luggage in the trunk and closed it.

    Alex Banks walked downstairs in a hurry. He held his suit and his tie in his hands and rush downstairs. He passed the dining room and saw Mabel eating breakfast. "Baby boy " Mabel called out to Alex Banks. " why are you in such a hurry,you should eat breakfast first before you go" Mabel said, stuffing a toast bread into her mouth."I need to be somewhere right now don't forget to go pick up Olivia in the hospital "Alex said as he did a tie ."wow!!so you don't take breakfast .I'm going to report you to mom" Mabel threatened."I can't remember when last I had breakfast,it's been a long time I've been really busy with the company's stuff and don't speak while eating, the food might go down the wrong way" Alex Banks said and rushed out of the door.Mabel shook her head as she watched him run out. She turned to continue eating and noticed the eyes that were staring at her . She looked at the cook ,"why are you staring at me? is there something on my face" Mabel asked cluelessly." No m

    Mabel walked into the hospital with a bouquet of roses in her hand . People looked at her as she walked past them, such a young girl carrying such beautiful flowers was a rare sight in a hospital. She finally located Clara's ward and pushed the door open.Avi and Clara were in the middle of a conversation when Mabel walked in with the flowers. Avi looked at Mabel's appearance and thought maybe she entered the wrong room."Who are you?" Avi asked in a sweet tone like she was talking to a child. Mabel ignored her and walked to Clara's side."I'm Mabel, Alex Banks sister" Mabel introduced herself smiling. Clara and Avi looked at her surprised, Alex never mentioned anything about him having a sister before."How is that possible?" Clara muttered under her breath."I'm adopted" Mabel said clearing her doubts."Clara, I'll see you later. I got to go back to work" Avi said and excused herself."What about Alex,where is he. He hasn't come to see me for two days now " Clara asked worriedly."I

    Clara sat on the dining chair, she looked around and noticed a few changes. All of the former workers were replaced. "What happened to the previous workers?" Clara asked Mabel."They were sent away because of what happened to you at the pool" Mabel said without looking at her, her gaze was on her phone."He shouldn't have fired them. They did nothing wrong" Clara said pitifully."He didn't fire them,he just sent them to the main house""Enough with the talk,I prepared a small surprise for you" Mabel said excitedly."What is the surprise?" Clara asked in excitement."You'll have to see it for yourself " Mabel said and clapped her hands twice. The Cook came out pushing a cart, the other workers pushed several carts and followed behind her ."What is all of this, isn't it too much"Clara said."Nothing's too much for my sister in-law,I just asked them to prepare something little to celebrate your discharge. You have been through a lot" Mabel said and signalled to the cook to start displa

    Clara got up the next morning and stretched lazily on the bed. She looked at the time and went back to sleep covering herself with the blanket.Mabel got out of the shower, she wore her dress and sat down at the dressing table. She dried her hair with her hair dryer and parked it in a messy bun. She applied her facial cream and massaged her face gently.She got up and pulled her out of bed."You should get up now, it's almost time for breakfast" Mabel said. Clara got out of bed lazily and went to the bathroom to wash her face. She had to go back to Alex's room because her things were there. She went to his room and saw him doing pushups, she looked at his body, that was a body any girl would want. Clara ignored him, she crossed over him and walked to the closet to pick her clothes. She sighted her phone on the table and picked it. She saw a message in the phone and remembered that she had an interview with a book publishing company the next day. She went into the bathroom and Alex Ba

    Alex Banks parked his car in front of the old building and got off. He walked into the warehouse, the same place where they tied up Jeremy. He walked into an inner room where Don was kept. He wasn't tied to a chair like Jeremy but instead,he was tied upside down above a hot boiling liquid. His face already burnt badly as a result of the steam. Alex Banks stood before him and looked him in the eye."I wonder where they found such a thick rope. They should have a thinner rope" Alex said touching the rope that was used to tie him ."Why did you tie me here to torture me. You should've killed me instead" Don said weakly."Why should I kill you, you're my friend remember. You're not dying till you tell me where Maya Stark is hiding" Alex Banks said."I'm not telling you anything,i know that I'm going to die anyway "Don said."Let me give you a piece of advice. You should stop trying to find her because you'll never be able to beat her. Instead of trying to find her why not lure her out, li

    Chapter 80: The Choice That Awaits.The next morning arrived with an unsettling calm. Clara woke up to the sound of birds chirping outside her window, the early light streaming through the curtains and painting the room in soft hues of gold. She turned over in bed, her mind clouded with the weight of everything that had been happening lately. The emotional rollercoaster with Alex, the growing distance between them, and the constant pull of Maddox’s words—it was all so much to handle.She lay there for a moment, eyes closed, allowing the silence to wash over her. But soon, the reality of the situation crept back in. The unease she’d felt for days hadn’t gone away. In fact, it had only deepened.Her phone buzzed, pulling her from her thoughts. She reached over to grab it, her heart skipping when she saw the name on the screen. It was Alex.---The Message:"Clara, I need to see you. We need to talk. Can you meet me for lunch today? I want to fix things."---Clara stared at the message

    Chapter 79: The Tension Beneath the Surface.The morning sun crept through the large windows of the penthouse, casting long beams of light across the plush furniture and sleek lines of the modern living room. Clara stood by the window, coffee cup in hand, her eyes tracing the skyline as her thoughts swirled. The city beneath her was buzzing, alive with the energy of a new day, but Clara felt an unease she couldn’t shake. Her mind kept returning to the conversation she had with Maddox the day before. His words lingered, like a shadow in the back of her mind, refusing to fade.She didn’t want to admit it, but his words had gotten under her skin.Was Alex really as committed as he seemed?Clara had always trusted him—had always believed in their bond—but after hearing Maddox speak so convincingly, she found herself questioning things she never thought to question before. Maybe it was the way Maddox had spoken to her, so calmly, so assuredly. He’d known just what to say to plant that seed

    Chapter 78: The Unraveling GameThe city below stretched out in a tapestry of glittering lights, the night sky obscured by the towering buildings that seemed to touch the heavens. Inside the sleek, modern office, the cold glow from the windows cast long shadows on the polished floor. Maddox leaned back in his chair, the quiet hum of the air conditioning the only sound in the otherwise silent room. His eyes were fixed on the files spread out before him, each one representing another calculated move in a game that had been years in the making.Maddox had always prided himself on his ability to stay three steps ahead of his competitors. His rise in the business world had been relentless, driven by an insatiable hunger for power and control. But there was one thing—one person—that had always eluded him: Alex Banks. The man who had everything, the empire that seemed untouchable, and the woman who had stirred something in Maddox’s heart that he thought was long buried. Clara.He could almos

    Chapter 77: New BeginningsThe morning after their tentative reconciliation was nothing like Clara had expected. She woke up to the sound of rain tapping against the windows, soft and steady, as though the world outside was breathing in sync with her own conflicted heart.She had expected the night to weigh heavily on her mind, but instead, there was a strange sense of calm. Alex’s words, his touch, his promise—everything lingered in the quiet of the room, a soft warmth that eased the tension that had built up between them over the past weeks.As she sat up in bed, her gaze wandered to the half-empty space beside her. Alex was gone, but it wasn’t the absence she feared. It was the quiet certainty that he was still there, in the sense that he hadn’t left her, and that, despite everything, she hadn’t left him either.She rubbed her eyes and glanced at the clock. It was still early, too early for business, too early for anyone to be stirring in the office. But there was something about t

    Chapter 76: Unraveling TensionsThe moonlit night had barely settled when Clara entered the penthouse, her heels clicking softly against the polished floor. The sounds of the gala still echoed in her ears—the laughter, the clinking of glasses, the hum of conversations. But as she closed the door behind her, the buzz of the outside world seemed to vanish. Inside, everything was still. Everything was charged.Alex sat on the edge of the leather couch, his sharp silhouette outlined by the dim glow from the chandelier. His jacket was discarded, the sleeves of his dress shirt rolled up to his elbows, exposing the tension in his posture. He looked like a man at war with himself. But Clara wasn’t sure if it was with her or with something deeper.Her gaze flickered toward the empty space beside him on the couch. “You’re here,” she said quietly, her voice more unsure than she intended.Alex didn’t answer right away. He was staring at his hands, his fingers moving as if he were mentally organiz

    Chapter 75 — The Gala: Unmasking the ShadowsThe grand ballroom was a spectacle of shimmering lights and glimmering elegance, a stark contrast to the dark thoughts that plagued Clara's mind. The night of the gala had finally arrived, and despite Alex’s reassurances, she couldn’t shake the unease that clung to her. She had seen it in his eyes—his quiet determination that he was shielding her from something, but tonight, she was all too aware that the world around them was watching.She and Alex had arrived earlier in the evening, gliding through the crowd, their presence magnetic. Every eye turned when they entered—Clara in her silver gown that caught the light with every movement, Alex in his sharp black tuxedo, a man of power and control. Together, they were a force, a perfect picture of wealth and status.But despite the beauty surrounding her, Clara’s mind kept wandering back to the small, almost imperceptible gestures she had picked up over the past few days. Alex’s phone calls th

    Chapter 74 — Shifting SandsThe night was quiet, an eerie calm that felt almost unnatural after the whirlwind of the past few weeks. Inside the penthouse, the gentle hum of the city below seemed to fade, leaving only the low, rhythmic sound of Alex's breathing as he lay in bed beside Clara.Clara’s fingers traced slow circles on his chest, her mind wandering despite the quiet peace between them. The gala loomed just days away, but tonight felt like a moment to pause, to let the world slip away for just a few hours.Alex's hand found hers, intertwining their fingers, as if sensing the shift in her mood. His touch was warm, reassuring. "You’re thinking too much," he murmured.Clara smiled softly, but there was an edge of something darker in her expression. "I just... I’m wondering how we got here."Alex raised an eyebrow, his lips curving into a small, knowing smile. "You mean to say, how you ended up in bed with a billionaire who has a penchant for being overprotective?"Clara laughed,

    Chapter 73 — A Whisper in the CrowdThe soft melody of jazz floated through the upscale boutique as Clara ran her fingers lightly over the racks of shimmering dresses.The gala was only days away, and despite Ivy’s enthusiastic insistence that she would find something perfect, Clara still felt a little out of place surrounded by the glittering fabrics and luxury labels.Ivy trailed after her, arms full of selections she deemed "absolutely necessary to try on.""Come on, Miss Vale," Ivy teased, holding up a deep green gown that looked like it belonged on the red carpet. "You’ll be the most beautiful woman there."Clara laughed lightly, but her heart warmed at Ivy’s earnestness."I think you’re a little biased," Clara said, taking the gown and heading for the dressing room.As she disappeared behind the heavy velvet curtain, Ivy lingered near the mirrors, flipping absently through her phone.The boutique’s front door chimed softly.Two sharply dressed men entered — neither looked like t

    Chapter 71 — Shadows from the PastThe morning sun flooded through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the penthouse, casting golden light over the world Alex Banks and Clara Vale were slowly rebuilding. The scent of fresh coffee drifted through the air, and soft music played in the background — the quiet, beautiful rhythm of a life Clara never thought she’d have.She stood by the kitchen island, still in her silk robe, stirring her coffee absently. Her mind was elsewhere — half on the chapter she was writing, half on the way Alex had seemed... distracted lately.Nothing overt. Nothing she could accuse him of.But Clara could feel it — the slight pauses, the way his eyes sometimes drifted toward the window like he was searching for something unseen.“Hey, dreamer,” Alex said, walking in, crisp and magnetic in his dark grey suit. He kissed her cheek, lingering for a second longer than usual, like grounding himself.“You’re late,” Clara teased, nudging him playfully.Alex chuckled lowly. “I
