Jane Li fell on the floor and looked at Alex with teary eyes and a sad expression. “Oh….that’s not all, you will continue to be my ‘fiancé’ until the day I finally get someone I want to marry settle down with. Then and only then will I break off our proposed engagement and set you ‘free’”, Alexander bawled at her with a stoic expression. It was at that very moment that Jane Li realized that she had ruined her life even before it began and also got to know the reason why Alexander agreed to be engaged to her publicly but treated her with indifference for years now. After saying all he had to say to Jane Li, Alexander turned his back slowly and left the office. He felt he was suffocating in that room, her presence in that room brought back lots of memories both good and bad. He took in sharp breathes of air immediately he got out of the company in long strides. He entered his car and drove out of the company in full speed leaving the jumbled Jane Li in the office. It actually took qui
The two adults gasped with wide eyes and turned slowly to see both Alexia and Junior standing by the door in their school uniform with their school bags and lunch bags in their hands.Alice looked at Ava as if asking her through telepathic communication,’did they hear everything that we were saying….oh this is very bad!.’ Ava apparently got the message and shrug her shoulders unconvinced as well.Alice laughed uncomfortably,”hahaha hahaha…you guys are back, come and give mummy and godmother a hug….”, she told them jokingly.The kids giggled childishly and rushed to them to hug them, after the hug they all stood staring at each other expectantly. Alexia,” “ Alexander,” “ Alice,” “ Ave,” “ Junior rolled his eyes at the two adults in front of them and looked at them dumbfounded,”we are waiting for the two of you to give us an explanation. We know something is happening and you are not willing to tell us. What did mummy need help with that you had to call godmother Ava to come to your
Meanwhile the twins gathered in Alexander’s room with a plan of their own without the knowledge of the adults downstairs.“So what did you find out about that man when you hacked into his company? Who is that man? Is he our father? No wait! Is it possible that he can be our father?..”, Alexia asked anxiously. She had initially forgotten all about that man and the hacking Alexander was supposed to doing until she heard the name of the company again this afternoon.Alexander didn’t know how to tell his sister that he wasn’t able to hack the company as planned because he had fallen asleep instead. “Mmm I haven’t done that yet…”, he answered with his eye drifting around the room carelessly but avoiding her glance.Alexia gave him a look of disbelieve after a moment of silence,”is the company so capable that you are unable to hack it? Or there’s another reason behind why you couldn’t hack into their files that evening”, she asked him with a thoughtful expression. Her thoughts already runni
Alice and Ava didn’t wait long before the kids graced them with their magnificent presence. Down the stairs like cute bunnies came Alexia and Alexander dressed in their matching animal onesies they got for their birthday this year.Ava wanted to pinch their cute chubby cheeks but one glare from Junior stopped her wild imaginations and made her head to the dining room instead. The rumbling sound of her stomach was heard by everyone from a distance but she was too hungry to feel ashamed of how her stomach decided to announce it need.They had the lunch quietly as they were all lost in their individual thoughts. After the lunch, the kids left in a hurry to their room to take a nap as Ava hugged and kissed them goodbye but glared at Alice until she couldn’t be seen anymore from the distance ****** Junior sat behind his computer and decided to do a deep research on Alexander Johnson as an individual in the business world and in the media. The normal on-net research he made on him didn’t
Junior sighed,”unfortunately I couldn’t get those information from my search on the internet…. But I promise you that tonight I will hack the company for information and if possible I will hack the birth certificate registry but we will have a lead!…” “Yes!….” Alexia shouted as if she was a freedom fighter making Alexander rolled his eyes at her dramatically.***** In the night after they ate dinner and Alice put them to bed, Alexander woke up quietly and reached for his laptop in the dark. Within minutes his little fingers could be seen with speed across his keyboard and his face squeezed in deep concentration. Within minutes he huffed in annoyance as he rolled his eyes,”so after almost hacking them the last time, they didn’t take me serious and just added minimum protection and security measures. Am I a joke to them? Huh? They don’t rate me at all from all indications. I prepared myself psychologically for a major war with them tonight because of our little run in the last time b
Junior shock his head in disappointment and left the website unscratched unlike the way he left the Johnson’s company computer, he left it in a total mess. He didn’t bother to close his laptop and went to his bed to sleep his disappointments away. He had a stressful day at school and an even more stressful night with all the hacking he did. In addition to that, he had school the following morning where he has a pending presentation.****** Meanwhile at the Johnson’s villa, Alex couldn’t sleep after he saw Alice Jet in person at the office earlier, it was like he was charmed by her beauty. His entire mind was consumed by her and the thought of her. He couldn’t stop thinking about her since he got home so he took his phone and called Jake for his assistance.“Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring” “Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring” “Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring” Jake woke up from bed in a confused state. He woke up very disoriented and glanced around confusedly u
Jake was quite on the phone until he heard Alex clear his throat loudly over the phone in a warning. “Boss, the ICT department have been hacked again!!!.”, he exclaimed in a panicked voice. Alex paused for a long time trying to digest what he had just heard because he felt he didn’t hear him right. What Jake just said sounded very strange to him, in fact he was in denial. He couldn’t believe that someone has the audacity to hack his company twice within the same week if it was truly the same person. “The ICT Department has been hacked again you said, is it the same person?”, he asked calmly despite the ranging war he was feeling within.Jake was surprised at his calm voice but what he didn’t know was that there was the calmness before the real storm begins. He quickly answered quietly because he was ashamed on the behalf of the ICT Department and their boss, Emmanuel Noir who seems to always disappear when trouble emerges. “Boss, they can’t tell if it’s the same person or not beca
Alex couldn’t help closing his eyes and covering his face with the palm of his hands. It been merely days since he had last thought about Alice and he was just noticing that the nightmares and insomnia wasn’t as much as they were over the days either. Usually when the nightmares and insomnia becomes worst, he makes a visit to Mr. Peter’s grave and have a conversation with him. To him no one understands how he feels so he prefers to talk to someone who knew them best and witnessed what was in stock for them. At times he goes there with fresh flowers when it’s a planned visit and other times he goes empty handed when it’s an impromptu visit. What baffles him was that he noticed he wasn’t the only one visiting nor bringing him flowers. He waved it away on a few times but got suspicious when fresh flowers was left on his grave on every anniversary of his death. He almost got the person but she got away immediately he made an appearance. Although the person was in disguise, her back looked
