MARK

I was left in utter shock after it was revealed that Mr. Devon was the one who actually purchased the penthouse.

However, it made me ask more questions.

How did Mr. Devon acquire such a penthouse of that cost? The Lucky man was also able to help us find out how much the penthouse cost. I was more shocked because it was even costlier than I imagined. Then there was maintenance and the tax for that penthouse to be considered.

And yet, Mr. Devon was handling it.

If he wasn’t, it would have been locked up by now or sold to someone else.

So, if the penthouse belonged to Mr. Devon, who was the man that came out to welcome my secretary? I had no doubt now because it all made sense; seeing Mr. Devon’s car parked at the penthouse, and hearing that he purchased it.

How in heaven’s name did he purchase it?

Mr. Devon had been working for the company since its inception, so he could actually have been saving, especially with his fat salaries and bonuses, but that didn’t still evade the fact t

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Just a Little Lie

    ALEXAI met up with Mr. Gerald, Tom Hardy, and Glazer again to finalize things and officially start off working as their designer.“I am still surprised that you agreed to honor our invitation,” Mr. Gerald said with a smile.What he didn’t know was that I willingly accepted a second meeting at their new company, Trans Villa, just so that I could get more information about Mark’s company.I still hadn’t told Mark what I heard about his company because I didn’t have anything substantial yet. The last conversation Mr. Gerald and I had wasn’t deep or revealing enough for me to go running to Mark.He was helping to save our company; this was the least that I could do.“In business, sometimes, rules can be broken,” I responded with a smile of my own.“Aha, it seems you have learned the ropes in business fast enough,” he teased.The three men didn’t make it difficult for me as they already knew just what they wanted. All I had to do was take down their preferences.“This doesn’t mean that we

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Almost Losing Hope

    MARKI met up with Brent a few blocks away from Sydney Bowman’s office.I was deeply astonished to see that Sydney’s establishment was a thriving one. In all honesty, I always knew this establishment, but because his name and face weren’t on his forefront of his company, I never thought twice about it.“Is everything okay?” Brent asked me as we waited.The man Brent had hired to have a consultation with Sydney Bowman had already gone in. The connections had been made, and we simply waited for Sydney’s secretary to usher him into his office. I didn’t realize that my facial expression was reflecting my thought.“I am just astonished, that’s all,” I answered.“What are you shocked about?” Brent asked me.“When Sydney Bowman was fired from the company, run by my dad at that time, he was dead broke,” I answered.“Really?” Brent asked as he became shocked as well.“Yes, Brent, and I knew this because I was also invested in the company,” I told Brent. “My dad was so upset with him for steali

    ALEXAI was still trying to wrap my head around what Donald just said when the man stretched his hand for a handshake.“Hello, Alexa Silver, it is nice to meet you,” he said.It would be impolite not to take his offer, and so I placed my hand in his and we shook respectfully. His palm was warm, and there was no iota of threat in his handshake. “Donald has said so many amazing things about you,” he continued with a chuckle. “Almost to the point where I felt he was exaggerating, but after seeing what you are doing with this place, I have to agree with him,” he finished.He was grinning warmly.“Thank you,” I muttered because I didn’t know what else to say, especially as I wasn’t expecting this stranger.“You can always call me Matty Farm,” he said.I looked at Donald, waiting for an explanation, which I had been seeking since he walked into my office unannounced.Donald eventually cleared his throat and began to explain.“Matty is an old friend of mine. We have been friends since we we

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Not Handling It Alone

    MARKWhen I got to work the next morning, my secretary was right there at her desk, but I just couldn’t see her the same way.“Good morning, Mr. Mark,” she greeted cheerily and professionally.“Good morning,” I responded. “Could you help me book an appointment with…” I started to request, but I changed my mind instantly.I realized that she had gone into the penthouse that Sydney Bowman had allegedly sold to whoever owned it; I still didn’t want to believe that it was owned and bought by Mr. Devon until I made my findings. Telling her to book the appointment for me might raise some suspicions, and from everything that Brent had told me, I needed to work with caution.“What appointment do you want me to make, sir?” She asked me.“Don’t worry about it. I will handle it myself,” I responded and went into my office.Then I called Vector and told him everything that transpired the previous evening in a summary.“That is a whole lot, Mark,” Vector said.“I know that,” I responded. “But wha

    ALEXAAs soon as I got into my office, Noelle came in. I had barely settled in for the day when she walked in. As much as I wanted my space for a while, I just didn’t ask her to leave.“Good morning, Alexa,” she greeted.“Good morning, Noelle,” I responded.Noelle sat down and stared at me for so long until it began to make me a little uncomfortable.“What is it, Noelle?” I asked her.“I just feel like our friendship is dwindling,” Noelle said.“Noelle, I am not in the mood to have this conversation with you,” I said, and I meant it.“You ran off yesterday, and since you returned from Toronto, we haven’t had time to talk,” Noelle continued.It was obvious that she wouldn’t give up, and I really didn’t want her to linger for long in my office. I still had to meet up with Mark to discuss about the company, but before then, I needed to get some work done in my own company.“Noelle, I really don’t want to have a conversation with you right now,” I told Noelle, sounding as serious as I cou
