"Hey." He said as he picked up the phone, he contemplated on if he would actually pick up the call but he knew if he didn't, for sure. Zeke would get the wrong impression and he wouldn't want that. "Hi, you called." Zeke said on the phone in a plain tone. "Oh I must have dialled it, when I realised it, I hung up." He lied to Zeke as he explained in a way that seemed convincing. "Oh okay, that's not a problem, I hope your phone isn't cracked." Zeke cracked a joke that Alex didn't find funny. "Oh it's not, thankfully." He replied and they laughed it off "It was just a pocket mistake and nothing more.' He added Zeke could be sure and not get it mixed up."Alright." Zeke said as he hung up. Alex raised his eyebrows up and got back to work. "Totally unnecessary." He blamed himself. "I should call some business owners and propose a partnership, I mean my company is doing so well at the moment and it wouldn't do anyone harm right?" He asked himself a question as he held his phone. Alex
Unsure of how to react Alex knew he had to keep his guard up around Zeke. "If he doesn't trust me, then I don't trust him. He decided to call his P.A. He doesn't have plans to report or to explain to him. Rather he wanted to know why his P.A was at that moment it was around past three in the morning..He reached out to his mobile phone. He dialled his P.A's number. In seconds of when the phone rang. His P.A picked up. He removed the phone from his ear, just so he can be sure that it was his P.A that indeed picked up. He was surprised to see that his P.A was wide awake and not asleep like he expected. "You aren't asleep?" He asked to be sure, maybe he picked up as it buzzed. "No sir, do you need me for something." His P.A said in a clear voice and not a rather sleepy one that he expected. "No, I was just checking up on you. You can go on and do what you need to do. " Alex said before he ended the call. He nodded to the fact that his P.A was working. A few hours later. Alex hadn'
Luna woke up rather in a happy mood, excitement shooting out of the roof and emotions flying. Alex was in his study but before that, they had a little talk. They took turns in bathing but they both got ready for the new day together. She escorted him to the door as he went on to work. She waited until he locked the door. With a jump, she ran inside and went straight to the kitchen. She knows how busy he gets when he is locked inside. And for sure by the time she is done cooking, he would still be busy. "I will cook whenever he isn't here." She muttered as she grabbed the apron. She walked past the counter where they had spicy time. She replayed the whole scene and bit her lips. She stood by the door and reminisced. The way he looked at her and how gently he was when he touched her. She remembered how his lips tasted. She giggled at the little scenes that she saw. She smiled and waved it off. She moved away from the counter. It gave her another boost of happiness. She twirled and ti
The next morning, Luna woke up feeling cheerful and energetic, while he was in the mood to work. She knew she wouldn't be able to cook since he is home. Instead she wanted to do a chore. She made the bed and cleaned the room, she opened the windows too, she had smiles all over her. She did a little happy dance. If anyone walked they would have she was the happiest soul on earth. Alex Was in his study, working as usual. She knew better not to disturb his work. With her robe on, She left the room and went downstairs. Abby wasn't anywhere to be found. She saw the dishes had been done, the laundry and even the cooking; not like she could do it but still she had it at the back of her mind. Luna had a disappointed look on. She tried so hard to make sure she found something to do but she didn’t. Just when she was about to give up, she found it. She found the bar that needed to be cleaned. Her eyes dilated with excitement. She was ready to do some work. She was pumped. She ran up the s
“What’s so important you couldn’t wait until the next day Anna?” He directed the question at her knowing she’s the trouble maker and chances are that she was the one who orchestrated the meeting with him in the first place. Anna smiled as she reached for her bag and brought out her cellphone. It made tapping sounds as she unlocked it and scrolled through her gallery while Alex stood tall and proud, curious about what was going on but still maintaining his perfect composure. “This is the reason behind the visit, sir” she said as she stretched her right hand showing him her phone. It was a video of Luna in the town. Alex still looked confused and couldn’t hide his confusion anymore, “what is this about? Why are you showing me this video of Luna and why are you even stalking her in the first place” he asked as his tone slowly increased. The male PA quickly stepped in to support Anna from the imminent tongue lashing she would have received if he hadn’t stepped in. “We were concerned fo
Zeke knew he was expecting Alex. He was still enraged about Gabriel and his choices of words. Zeke tapped his foot against the floor. He tried all his best to be calm. He counted the seconds until the arrival of Alex. He wasn't excited. He just wanted this done and over with. Zeke was a man of his words and a man of his actions. He hated being stood up. Anxious? No he wasn't. He was rather impatient. He had other plans that needed to be met and right now. Only a man is delaying all of his plans. He looked at Gabriel for a couple of times, there was a silence to be broken and at this point, only Alex could do that. Zeke was used to having nothing to say at that moment and he sure wasn't going to waste his word on a morsel like Gabriel. His impatience was seen vividly. He was tired of waiting. Zeke stood up and stretched. He went on to his phone and decided to pass time by reading some news.He suddenly remembered Luna and how she had died. It made him more infuriated. He was sure A
"Oh that isn't possible. Our policy didn't allow for refunds. We sold to you what you wanted and you got it. You are the one who needs to check how you used the pills." The man who sold the pills was apparently also a doctor. Luna's ears itched as she heard those words. She was pleased that she had to say something."You! You are nothing but a Fake, a liar and a fraud. You are a gale doctor. And you are a manipulator. You are telling lies and you are a cheat. How on earth would you sell me fake things and yet you expect me to believe that it's my fault? I used over twenty of your pills and you still expect me to believe that it's all my fault?" Luna hadn't said all she had in her mind. She rolled her eyes and grit her teeth.She took her time to pause and catch her breath but she knew what she had to do. She had made up her mind to do as she wished."You know what? It's rather pointless to engage in any form of conversation with a gullible man like you?""What did you just call me?" He
"Oh, good morning Jane." He replied in a simple manner and returned his head back to its position. "Uh what's wrong? You had a fight? Or a bad morning?" Jane who went up to him and touched his head said as she sat beside him, her body was leaning so close to him. "Oh, I didn't have a fight, I just-" as he said those words he felt a migraine. He knew he had to hide how he felt towards Jane. She was like a nurse and a mother, she would drop everything and just pay attention to him and he didn't want that at all."I am fine, I just woke up all stressed and tired. And that's it. Let's wait for my P.A and then we will all leave together? We are going to the new company that I will be in charge of and then, we will do the daily work." Alex Tried his best to keep the conversation as short as possible and he did. Jane understood and paused, she took a shift backwards and tilted her head backwards. "Why are you hard backwards?" He asked out of pure concern. "Oh I wanted to relax, just as you
