Chapter 11 Xena RemingtonI kept fidgeting with my fingers as I sat on the couch, waiting for Axel to come down. I couldn’t get the flashes of everything that happened yesterday out of my head. I don’t know what was going on but ‘it was intense’.I had come to Axel’s penthouse again to bandage him up and I feel like I’ll have to keep doing this every morning for a week at least. Thank god, I broke up with Jerold before this happened because I have no idea how I would have explained why Axel’s driver is picking me up first thing in the morning and taking me to his house and not the office. I continued looking around like a lost puppy as I waited downstairs for Axel and kept wondering if I am going to change his bandages in the living room?“Oh Ms. Remington, you are here. You can go upstairs. His room is the first one on the left, you can’t miss it.” Mrs. Costanza says as she appears out of nowhere, making me quickly stand up on my feet to greet her.“Upstairs? His bedroom?” I ask n

Xena Remington“So I am wrapping up for the day. Do you want me to do anything else for you?” I peeped into Axel’s office for a minute before I leave. I always do this even though he has told me that he will call me when he needs me. But after working for Axel for over a month now and I know how busy he is as a person and he usually ends up forgetting to assign work to me if it’s not urgent. So just to be on the safe side, I pop by every day to make sure he doesn’t need my help.“Xena, come in.” he says as he closes his laptop and looks at the outfit I am wearing. He always does this. And I hate how I have started to pay more attention to how I dress because I know Axel will look at me. Today, I was wearing my crisp white shirt and a black formal skirt. It was a simple outfit but my hips are huge so I always end up getting a lot of attention in this outfit.“So did you find out anything?” He says referring to the task he gave me. I had to find out who is embezzling money, but he thin

Xena Remington“Zara, you are going to feel dizzy.” I look over at Zara who was sitting in my office, swivelling on the chair in front of me like a kid.“Ha-ha, jokes on you, I already feel dizzy. I could puke right now, I feel that dizzy.” She says proudly as she holds her head.“Then stop,” I say in a bored tone.“Please you are just jealous.”“Yeah, I wish I could also feel like throwing up my lunch.” I mock her as she finally stops swivelling.“Ouch, my head hurts.” She complains as she lets her head fall on my desk.“Yeah, I wonder why,” I say, absentmindedly. Still not over what Axel did to me yesterday. “Okay, I’ve been hiding something from you,” I say nervously, not knowing how she is going to react.“What did you do?” She asks as she lifts her head up.“Axel is…. I don’t even know what to say. I don’t know how to explain.” I say shyly.I was not used to talking about such things. I became friends with Zara around the same time I started dating Jerold. I used to tell her abo

Xena Remington My eyes stay fixated on my laptop screen as I see the name Jerold Hart on hundreds of expenditure statements, which go back up to five years. All the receipts that he had submitted were clearly fake and it was clear that he had manipulated the accounts to cover up the fact that he is pocketing all the money.Jerold is embezzling money from the Lancasters for years now.My hands were shaking as I tried to not have a panic attack. I have only seen Axel’s nice side but the Lancasters are famously known for putting a bullet into someone’s head if they were betrayed. I know for a fact that Zara’s stepfather was killed like that.I quickly run out of my office to Zara’s cubicle, I need to find her and tell her what I just found out. I know Axel warned me not to tell anyone about these things but I don’t want to be the reason behind Jerold’s death.“Zara.” I choke as I look at her with a horrified look on my face.“Xena!” She immediately stands up with a worried look on her f

Xena Remington“Hello,” I look up to see a ridiculously handsome man, looking a lot like Axel, maybe just a few years younger. They had the same facial structure and eyes, “I am Asher Lancaster.” He greets me with a radiant smile on his face.“Umm Hello, Mr Lancaster, I wasn’t expecting you,” I say, getting up from my seat and shaking his hand. I felt like a dwarf in front of him. Why are all these Lancaster men so big?“Yep, I am here to file a complaint against the CEO of this company.” He says in a deadly serious tone as we sit down.“Are we talking about your elder brother?” I ask in a confused tone, still not sure why Asher Lancaster had come here to meet me.“I am sorry, I am a very professional person. In this office, he is my boss ‘apparently’ so everyone is supposed to listen to what the ‘great’ Axel says. I was busy today and he forced me to come in. so I want to file a complaint against him. Apparently, he is the only one ‘with a life’ and we have to plan everything around
