Chasing Sofia Chapter 63
ALEX The conversation I had with the private investigator made me feel a little at ease. With what he had and what he was going to find, I was sure it would be complete and would ruin Sofia's boss. It would teach him some valuable lessons not to mess with people again. You never know who's the right people and the wrong people.Now, he messed with the wrong people and it was time to show him who is the boss. I plan to see him rot in jail. To see him lose all he ever accumulated in the wrong ways.I don't intend to allow him to spend perhaps a day or two, a week or two in police custody, I intend to extend it to a five years minimum and ten years maximum and I will make sure he loses a lot while in jail.I made my way through the office. My head kept on bringing ideas. I have to quickly formulate a plan and begin to coordinate with the team to track down her parents' murderer. I wanted to ensure that those who did this faced the full force of the law and that they would never be able
Chasing Sofia Chapter 64
ALEX "I need you all to keep this tight lipped. I don't want my father to catch wind of the new addition to our team. Is that taken?"The employees exchanged puzzled looks and I could see the questions forming in their minds. I wasn't ready to give them a WHY. They should just take it like I said it. I was the boss and they were my workers. If any of them wanted to defy me, it would be the former head of department.The others wouldn't. The head of the department was someone my father always talked to. He was my father's oldest worker and I knew if anything was to happen which was not in line with my father's rules, he was sure to tell him.And as they nodded, my thoughts were consumed with the potential pitfalls of my father discovering Sofia's hiring. I had to make sure everything went smoothly, and with the employees on board, I hoped I could avoid any unnecessary complications.Damn, I hope. And I hope they are able to get my WHY too. They all knew my father and if there was one

SOFIA It was time to go home. But I wanted to just sleep here.It was the last day at work and I had my laundry to attend to. I wanted to clean the house, make myself a large bowl of soup and read some books.It wasn't like I was tired. I wasn't really working that much, but I felt so stressed particularly today. I always leave home by 7am and I return before 7pm. I don't do much at my workplace. It was just like I went there to have fun. I eventually decided to open my eyes after I closed it for a while. It was cold and I felt empty. As I stretched and yawned, my eyes landed on the beautiful bouquet of flowers sitting on my bedside table. They were the ones Alex, my new boss, had given me two nights ago when we went out for dinner. A warm smile spread across my face as I remembered the lovely evening we had spent together.Remembering this, I can't believe that I was smiling. It's like I've known this man forever and the way he came into my life, I felt brand new. He not only help
Chasing Sofia Chapter 66
ALEX "Uhm, there is something.""What?""Can you come over to my house for dinner?"When she had asked me that, I must confess, I had smiled. This was because I knew she had began to fall for me. Like fall for my charm and all, and maybe it's not love, but she was fond of me. It made me happy in an unusual way. This kind of happiness scared me. It wasn't like the evil happiness I've had at the beginning of this whole play. From the beginning, I hated Sofia. The fact that she made me lose possession of the Crow Cartel made me want to waste her like I did to her stepfather. The fact that she ran away made me angrier. I could still feel the impact of my father's words on me. His sharp curse and comparison, his prayer to have my dead brother back. All this made me angry and I was sure that if I had seen Sofia a day after she ran awsy, I would have killed her. The anger would still be fresh in my mind and that resentment would make me strike her with a single blow that would end her lif

SOFIA I wasn't sure how long I've been dreaming. The dream was just like the one of the damsel in distress. In this case, she wasn't in distress, she was calm. She was in a serene environment. She was like Snow white, and that woman was me.I found myself sitting in a serene environment, surrounded by the beauty of nature. I felt an overwhelming sense of peace coursing through my veins. It radiated all through my being and made me feel so alive. This was a dream, and I don't want to wake up from it.And it was all because of one man - the man who entered my life and changed it for the better. He was like a prince, sweeping me off my feet and bringing a sense of calm and tranquillity into my world, giving me that life I always wanted.His presence was like a breath of fresh air, his kindness and compassion shining through in everything he did. He had a way of making even the most chaotic moments feel serene, and for that I was eternally grateful.In his eyes, I found solace. In his wo

SOFIAAlex was visually pulling off my clothes as he stared at me. It wasn't like the perverted type. I kind of love the way he looked at me. It wasn't like the way my boss looked at me. This one was different, this one was filled with a kind of expression that put me in a serene place.I suddenly didn't care what he did to me, or think of me. I was safe in his presence, with him there, I felt I could take on the world whichever way I wanted to. He wasn't embarrassed. The fact that I slept in his arms, cried, and said some things didn't make him feel bad. Instead, he found a way to wrap the whole situation around to make it pleasing. I mean, he had this ability to turn a terrible situation into something that is very bearable and less embarrassing. That was who Alex was and who I was so comfortable with. When he said, “so, Sofia," his eyes twinkled with amusement, "be out quick, okay,” it was this time I understood what it meant to have butterflies roaming in one's stomach. Before,
Chasing Sofia Chapter 69
SOFIA I still stood for a while as he apologised. Somehow, it made me feel like he was my husband. That felt good and bad at the same time. I was beginning to see Alex as more than just my boss and my friend. So many imaginations running in my head. I've thought about what it would look and feel like as a mother, but I haven't thought about how it would feel like living with a husband.And this time, I imagined Alex to be my husband. He is my boss, and also my friend. How would it feel like being married to him?I pictured us spending lazy Sunday mornings sipping coffee on the porch, discussing our plans for the day. We'd go for hikes in the mountains, laughing and joking as we navigated the trails. We would do what he loves and what I love. We would cook dinner together, share stories of our day as we chopped vegetables and seasoned the meat. In my mind, it all seemed so effortless and natural, as if we were meant to be together in every way.I thought of what sex would be like. Th
Chasing Sofia Chapter 70
SOFIA If it was a kiss on my lips...Damn! If it was a kiss on my lips, I would literally scream, this wasn’t supposed to be, but it was great if it could be and not change at all. I kept thinking about the simple kiss. Why was I still thinking about it? It was just a light touch that could be easily dismissed, yet it carried a deeper meaning beneath the surface, well, it was just like that with me. Not to Alex, I suppose.I still thought about the more intimate kisses, like those on the lips or neck. The neck kisses was on another level entirely. Once upon a time, I called kissing 'irritating'. Those smooching things and the rest were irritating and disgusting to me. But then, they could be a powerful expression of love, desire, or even dominance. They could create a deep connection between two people, bringing two people closer together and igniting a fire that’s hard to extinguish.I considered the kisses on other parts of the body, like the hands or forehead. These tender gestu
