ALEXA“That seems really deep,” I said after what Mr. Gerald said.I was itching for more, and I could barely hold myself from falling on my knees and pleading with Mr. Gerald to tell me everything I needed to know, but I still had to be patient. The time was ticking, and I ought to have left Trans Villa by now, but I couldn’t.I needed to have something I could take to Mark that would be useful to him, and I couldn’t do that with half-information.“It is more than deep, Alexa. It is very hurtful,” Mr. Gerald said.He sounded slightly wounded, but I couldn’t blame him. It sounded as though they were betrayed by Mr. Devon, but then again, I needed to know how everything played out so that it doesn’t look like I just went about spreading news.Mark took his company seriously, and he would be cross with me if he found out that I gave him an information that wasn’t authentic.Also, I knew that Mr. Devon was a key staff member in the company, and I would hate to do something that would not

ALEXAHow dared Mark walk out just like that? Wasn’t he the one who always accused me of using emotions when it came to business?“We should go ahead,” I stated with annoyance.Mark was being too full of himself and I was pissed off. This wasn’t his company, and not only his suggestions was welcome.“Gentleman, could you give my daughter and me a moment?” My dad requested calmly, looking at Matty Farm.I rolled my eyes; I should have known that no matter what, he would take Mark’s side.“Of course,” Matty Farm said without hesitation.Then he got up and exited the boardroom gracefully.I had known Matty Farm for just a couple of hours since Donald introduced him to me and convinced me that his investment would be good and profitable, and I could say for a fact that the man had an amazing personality.He presented facts, and even showed me everything he had achieved over the last couple of years without pride or arrogance. He knew exactly what he was going for, and he did not force him

ALEXAI was a little pissed off that the contract was left in Mark’s care and no one bothered to inform me about it. It just wasn’t right.It was supposed to be in the company, and even if it was to be in anyone’s possession, it should have been in mine and no one else’s. Mark didn’t own the company, and yet, he was in possession of something as crucial as that.However, before Matty Farm left, I assured him that he would get the contract the next day so that he could sign and that we could commence working together.“Alexa,” my dad said as I stood up to leave, and I knew that he wanted to continue objecting.“Dad, for the very first time, I need you to have some faith in me,” I said deeply, hoping that he would honor that.“It is not you I don’t trust, Alexa,” he said. “It is Donald, of whom this man came through,” he added.I almost rolled my eyes at him.I knew that he would have something against Donald, and this was mainly because of his loyalty to Mark Ronaldo. I would never und

MARK“You couldn’t convince her otherwise?” Mr. Silver asked me.“You know that Alexa can be stubborn sometimes,” I said with exasperation. “And she was right,” I added.“Right about what?” Mr. Silver asked.He was both angry and disappointed, but he knew that no matter what, he couldn’t hold the blame against me. “She is the new owner of the company, and she has every right to be in possession of the contract, and to make whatever decision she likes,” I tried to explain to Mr. Silver.“Alexa is living in the dark!” He barked with exasperation.“I know that, Mr. Silver,” I responded wistfully.“We must do something really fast,” Mr. Silver hurriedly said, and he went right on to talking even before I could say a word. “I don’t think she is going to give him the contract to sign until tomorrow. We still have some hours to talk her out of it,” he added desperately.“As much as I understand your plight, Mr. Silver, and as much as I would have loved to help, I can’t,” I said, shaking my

ALEXADonald and I got to his car and he opened the car door for me gracefully, and I got in, and after which he drove out of my premises.“Where are you taking me?” I asked him lightly.“To somewhere nice,” Donald said. “There is this place I have always wanted to visit, but I never wanted to go alone,” Donald responded.“Come to think of it, I don’t know about anyone you have dated before,” I said.“Paris is a big place,” Donald answered with a smile.“Yes, but being that you are famous, news of you being in a relationship would have surfaced at some point,” I said.“Yes, but I am not like Mark Ronaldo who sheds his linens for all to see,” Donald said with a chuckle.Even though his tone was light, I felt a little uncomfortable, and Donald noticed it almost immediately.“I am sorry, I was just teasing,” Donald said.I cleared my throat and said, “I just don’t like talking about him.”“And I won’t. I only thought that since you have both been divorced and are even working together no
