Alexander sat down and looked at him from head to toe then vice versa making Jake flush red in shame. “I wanted to punish you but seeing your appearance, I think you’ve punished yourself already. You can leave, I won’t be coming to work early in the morning, I can feel a headache coming up. I will be taking my prescription so I can sleep a bit so postpone any meeting I his morning.” Jake nodded before pausing,”mmm Boss, you have a meeting with Alice Jet, the heiress of the Jet Empire. Should I postpone it too?”, he asked Alexander dismissively as if he wasn’t going to read meaning into his reply. Alex was already standing to leave when he heard what Jake said,”No! don’t postpone it, what time is it??” Jake was staring at him in surprise as if he had suddenly grown three heads. So his suspicions were really true? Alexander was interested in Alice Jet? The Alice Jet without even meeting her? Amazing!Jake cleared his throat dramatically,” mm boss? don’t you want to rest again since y
After breakfast with the children, Alice left directly to her company to get her documents for the meeting at the Johnson and Johnson company. When she got to the company, she sat in the car for a very long time trying herself a prep talk before getting down from the car. After putting her documents in their right place in her document bag, Nene came into her office to inform her that the other executives were ready to go to the Johnson and Johnson company for the meeting. “Knock knock knock knock “ “Come in..” Alice replied off mind, she was too lost in her thought to even know what was going on around her. She blinked her eyes severally to push her thoughts away when she saw Nene come to her view. “Madam Alice, the executives are ready to leave to the Johnson and Johnson company, they are waiting for your orders to know whether they can go ahead to the company or wait for you…..” Alice nodded,”what about Mr. Kim?..” Nene hid the mocking smile she started nursing at the mention
Alexander left the conference room without waiting for a reply from anyone. The strange looks Jake was getting from all those present made him want to follow Alexander but was stopped by how Alexander hurried out of the conference as if he was being chased by a wild beast.Everyone other member of the Johnson and Johnson company was looking at Alice with wild accusations written all over their faces along with disgust. “She intentionally made an entrance to seduce our big boss!”“How unnerving!”“She’s a seductress as the rumors claim!”“Huff!”“Dora you are right, did you see how she walked in seductively swinging her hips like she’s the most flexible person ever and beautiful person ever. Huff! She’s not even that beautiful! I feel she’s all fake and has done a lot of plastic surgeries to look that good!”“Shhhh you two be quiet, your voices are too loud…..”, a voice whispered to them from behind. Dora rolled her eyes in annoyance,”so?, Am I lying?, didn’t you see her when she came
“……so that brings us to the end of the presentation. Any questions for me?…”, Alice finished with a warm dimpled smile.Alexander turned to look at the audience, that’s when he saw the looks the men were giving her. He glared at them,”look on the damn board and ask some fucking valid questions!..”, he stated angrily. He didn’t know why but the lustful looks the other men in the room was giving Alice was making his blood boil.His outburst was a surprise to a lot of people in the room including Alice herself but not Jake, he wasn’t surprised at all since he had been at the receiving end of such outburst too often to count and knew exactly how they come about.“Have you people even gotten a word of the entire presentation she made, all I can see is hormonal grown men on heat!…..”, Alexander exclaimed once again angrily whilst glaring at the men in the room.Nene had to covered her mouth to prevent herself from giggling out loud. What Alexander said was indeed true because throughout her
Jake was dying inside with laughter,’oh I knew it!, no wonder he didn’t stop me when I was offering the office to her. I took the chances on my job because he was my friend but I still won! hahaha hahaha….Alexander is finally interested in another woman after all this years!’, he thought happily to himself whilst eyeing Alexander and Alice discreetly.“Well I guess that solves it….Miss Jet, welcome to Johnson and Johnson company for the next twelve months! We hope you will enjoy your stay here, may need friends and also maybe find love…..”,Jake muttered with a smirk.***** After the meeting, Alice Jet was being congratulated by her colleagues and members of the Johnson company but her entire attention was on the man that was walking away happily and whistling. Jake was walking behind Alex as he stared amusingly at the latter one as he walked and whistled happily whilst nodding his head to an imaginary rhythm.Jake,” “ he thought as he shock his head in amazement. Jake walked beside A
Alex stood up and threw everything from his table including his laptop and documents, things could be heard breaking outside his office. “You connived with my family and your family to kill my family!!!!!!” Jane Li felt her life flash before her eyes, then suddenly everything Alex had done to her, his family excluding his mother and grandmother not forgetting her family finally made sense. Over the years, Alex made sure that the Johnson and Johnson company withdrew every contract they had with the Li company pushing the Li company to an almost bankruptcy. He avoided the Li and Johnson family as much as he could, he didn’t attend any of the parties organized by the Li or Johnson family over the years even when he was personally invited. “I….I…I..I don’t know what you are talking about?…..we didn’t do anything to Alice I swear, she just disappeared!!….” Alex wanted to kill the girl looking at him with the frightening expression,”do you think I’m dumb…..hahaha do you know what happe
Jane Li fell on the floor and looked at Alex with teary eyes and a sad expression. “Oh….that’s not all, you will continue to be my ‘fiancé’ until the day I finally get someone I want to marry settle down with. Then and only then will I break off our proposed engagement and set you ‘free’”, Alexander bawled at her with a stoic expression. It was at that very moment that Jane Li realized that she had ruined her life even before it began and also got to know the reason why Alexander agreed to be engaged to her publicly but treated her with indifference for years now. After saying all he had to say to Jane Li, Alexander turned his back slowly and left the office. He felt he was suffocating in that room, her presence in that room brought back lots of memories both good and bad. He took in sharp breathes of air immediately he got out of the company in long strides. He entered his car and drove out of the company in full speed leaving the jumbled Jane Li in the office. It actually took qui
The two adults gasped with wide eyes and turned slowly to see both Alexia and Junior standing by the door in their school uniform with their school bags and lunch bags in their hands.Alice looked at Ava as if asking her through telepathic communication,’did they hear everything that we were saying….oh this is very bad!.’ Ava apparently got the message and shrug her shoulders unconvinced as well.Alice laughed uncomfortably,”hahaha hahaha…you guys are back, come and give mummy and godmother a hug….”, she told them jokingly.The kids giggled childishly and rushed to them to hug them, after the hug they all stood staring at each other expectantly. Alexia,” “ Alexander,” “ Alice,” “ Ave,” “ Junior rolled his eyes at the two adults in front of them and looked at them dumbfounded,”we are waiting for the two of you to give us an explanation. We know something is happening and you are not willing to tell us. What did mummy need help with that you had to call godmother Ava to come to your
