Paulina looked at her; she handled everything professionally. She woke up in Alex's room and saw that he was sleeping. She walked back and instructed Fiona to make some tea and have it ready before Alex woke up. Brian walked into the house and handed the laptop to Paulina, who immediately started to work. Later in the evening, Henrietta came to check up on Alex when he didn't return her call. She met Paulina in the mansion and looked at her. "Why are you here?" Henrietta looked at her with a furrowed eyebrow. Paulina wanted to tell her Alex was sick, but seeing her manner of approach, she said nothing. "Alex traveled and asked me to work from his home. Is anything the matter?" She replied coldly. Henrietta brought out her phone and dialed Alex's number, but she was not getting any response. She walked out of the house, angrily shutting the door behind her.Paulina felt happy that she could get rid of Henrietta without much stress. She looked at what she was putting on and wondered i
Alex was feeling much better after being taken care of us. He was happy Paulina was by his side all through the crisis. Feeling refreshed, he called his staffs together and told them they all were moving with him to the Davis villa. They immediately packed their belongings and followed Alex. " Don't you think you need to stay low and heal for a while?" Paulina looked at him as he got dressed " I am not safe here. Xavier and Richard knows where I am. They now Davis is dead and it only a matter of time before they come for my head." Alex replied wincing as he tried putting on his shirt. His head was throbbing and when Paulina touched him, he felt warm. " I think your fever is broken but you need to take things easy." Alex nodded and walked down the stairs with Paulina as a guide beside him. " Is there any news from work?" Alex stopped and looked at Paulina. Paulina sighed " The mine companies is doing great but we still couldn't locate the final resting place of the treasure. I think
Claire's brother was sent to the reprimanded home to have him turned a new leaf. Things was going AWOL for the Wills. They were gradually going broke and have to depend on the meagre salary Claire was giving by Ruby which was barely enough to feed them and care for their need. Claire still have to do a double shift to make up for the house rent and other stuffs. Charlotte on the other part was not helping, she was still extravagant with her spending habit and was looking for a quick way of making money. Henry assisted them with the little he had because he also had alot of things to have to sort out. As they were all seated in front of Rubby, he talked to them about how to get into the mining business world. " We don't have to wait for the chesses to come to us. We go for it." Clare stood up and looked at Rubby, while working at Alex's company, she had been able to gather more information about the mining company and she could single handedly control one. " what do you think about
The news of Rubby venturing into the mining business was something every mining organization and sector heard about. Many people know how Rubby can be; he is known to be shady and has a way of manipulating his ways when he wants something. Ruby reached out to Xavier about the mining business contract he had with Alex to know if they were making any progress. Richard was also being careful. Ever since Roseline came back from her visit to Alex, she had been interested in his work and would always pay attention to every little detail about it. Richard doesn't want his only daughter involved in his business life, so he tries his best to hide things from her.Xavier decided to pay Aled a visit after hearing he was not better. Alex sat down at his office, relaxing. He had a cup of water in front of him and some fruit salad. Yuri had asked him to eat more fruit and drink a lot of water. Paulina walked into his office carrying some files. Alex opened his eyes slowly and looked at her. "Good m
Paulina walked close to Alex, and as she did, they made eye contact, and it was evident both were in love with one another. "Xavier seems to know you." Alex said it sharply, looking at Paulina's face. "He must have me confused with someone else." Paulina replied and walked closer to Alex's seat. She bent down a little bit, showing him the upper part of her breast. Alex, but his lower lips. He had wanted more since the last time they had sex, but each time Alex tried to get to know Paulina, she drew back. Paulina looked at his face and noticed he wasn't focused. She smiled, seeing that she still had a hold over Alex. A small chain pendant dropped from her neck, even making her more sexy. Alex felt his dick hard and quickly stood up. "Are you alright?" Paulina asked, seeing his mood. "I am... fine." Alex replied, cleaning the sweat off his face. ' It is kind of stuff in here. Do you feel hot?" Alex asked, turning the A/C even higher. "You said you wanted to talk to me. What is it a
Alex and Paulina got out of the car, while Brian stayed back. "Do not leave the car. We won't be long." Alex told Brian as they walked towards Dickson's mansion. Alex walked in and smiled. "It is good to see you, Mr. Richard." "You too, Alex. I am sorry about your grandfather." Richard added "We have moved past that already. You said you wanted to see me." Alex looked at Richard, cutting to the chase. "I don't know what you and Roseline talked about, but we kept on saying weird things. I want you both to patch up and go back to the way things were before. Can you at least do that for me?" Richard looked at Alex. Alex looked at Paulina and back at Richard. "What did she talk to you about?" He asked, staring at Richard. "Well, I hope it won't get you all angry and worked up, but do you have any evidence that I had a hand in the death of your parents?"" Richard asked, looking at Alex. "I don't, but I am ready to find out." Alex replied There was tension in the room between both me
Alex clenched his jaw, his anger simmering beneath the surface. "Chloe, you've made your intentions clear, but I won't back down. I won't let you tear apart everything my grandfather built," he said firmly into the phone.Chloe scoffed on the other end of the line. "You're naive if you think sentimentality will protect you. Money talks, Alex, and I have plenty of it. Don't make enemies you can't handle.""I'm not afraid of you or your threats," Alex retorted, his voice steely. "I'll do whatever it takes to uphold my family's legacy, even if it means facing off against you."There was a tense silence before Chloe spoke again, her tone dripping with venom. "Fine, have it your way. But mark my words, Alex, this isn't over. You'll regret crossing me.With that, she hung up, leaving Alex seething with frustration. He knew Chloe wouldn't give up easily, but he was determined to stand his ground.Taking a deep breath, Alex composed himself and got dressed for the day. As he made his way down
While Alex carefully neared the door, he became more aware, ready for any hint of threat. The spooky silence surrounded the mansion, causing a nervous sensation in his stomach. He hesitated with a slight tremble in his hand, not knowing what to expect as he reached for the doorknob. He had never been compelled to go see Paulina at the villa before, but he now felt a strong urge to visit her.Taking a deep breath, Alex opened the door and entered. He was welcomed by a poorly lit entrance area, with long shadows on the walls adding an eerie sense of movement. He shouted for Paulina, but his voice bounced back at him, magnified by the vacancy in the house.Alex hurried through the mansion, his footsteps resonating in the quiet with a feeling of immediacy. While walking through the lavish corridors and sophisticated chambers, he couldn't rid himself of the sensation that something was severely amiss. He noticed the disarray in the rooms and the shattered glass scattered on the floors.Eve
