ALEXA“We will keep in touch, Mr. Silver. I am going to have further conversations with Mr. Gregory, and relay all that I need to with you,” Mark had said a few minutes ago before leaving.“I thought we were going to have a private conversation?” My dad had asked him, surprised he was leaving right after the meeting.Mark had cleared his throat and said, “I will call you, Mr. Silver.”The meeting had lasted for about an hour and thirty minutes, but all through, the heat of what Mark and I had done still filled my cheeks. At some point, I felt my cheeks burning so badly that I worried that my dad might notice.How Mark managed to handle the meeting without stuttering or missing his points, I couldn’t understand it.Now that he had left me alone with my dad, the whole boardroom became awkward. I could still sniff the smell of sex, and again, I wondered if my dad could smell it too. Mark ensured that I didn’t scream, but then again, my dad was neither stupid nor a child.“Whatever you bo

MARK“I knew Donald could never mean well when I saw him seated at their table that damn evening,” I said.The memory returned to me like a flash, and my teeth crushed each other in fury.“After the dinner, Clara acquainted herself with Donald Shell without Alexa and Mr. Silver’s knowledge,” Vector continued. “But why is she going for the company?” I couldn’t help but ask. “She is being provided for by Mr. Silver, and I know this for a fact because he is an honorable man,” I added.“She is a greedy and desperate woman, Mark, just like her daughter, Ivy,” Vector told me. “She would do anything to get what she wants,” he added.“Does Mr. Silver know anything about this?” I asked.“He doesn’t, which is why I am surprised that you haven’t informed him yet. They are in grave danger and they need to know about it as soon as possible,” Vector said.“Damn,” I lamented.Donald Shell would never stop being a nightmare. He was taking over everything in Paris and ruining the lives of people, and

MARKSydney Bowman.I remembered the name almost immediately!He was one of my dad’s senior staff members that handled finance and logistics in the company, but when I got back from business school in Toronto, he said that he had fired Sydney.“What happened, dad?” I had asked him. “I thought he was a very competent staff member,” I had added.“He was, until I found out that he was stealing from the company,” my dad had told me.I could rarely believe this because Sydney was one of the men I thought had integrity. My dad even vouched for him several times, just the way he vouched for and trusted Mr. Devon, so I was deeply shocked to hear that he had been fired, and worse, that he was stealing from the company.“Are you sure? How did you find out?” I had asked him.“Mr. Devon revealed his treacherous acts,” he had responded.“Are you sure Mr. Devon didn’t make any mistakes?” I had asked.“Devon has been working for the company since it was founded, Mark, and you know this. Has he ever

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

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
