Alice smiled sadly,”life has it way of humbling you and making you into a survivor, you go through so much that it moulds you into a completely different person than you wanted to be when you were younger. You turn into the characters you judged so much while growing up and you start making all the mistakes you judge so bad. I may be smart but the kids especially Junior didn’t take his intelligence from me. I will dare say he took his looks and intelligence all from his father. He-he took everything from Ale…”“Who mummy? Who did I take after? Who did I take everything from?….”, a tiny voice questioned her softly at the door. Startled Alice dropped the phone and by so doing she accidental press the loud speaker button on the phone. She was so into the conversation she was having with Carlos Rodriguez on the phone that she didn’t even hear the footsteps approaching her room nor did she the presence of Junior until he startled her with the questions he asked. She turned to see him stand
That evening, the twins fell asleep talking with Carlos as he told them advantages of his travel around the world and later on sang them a lullaby with his crispy and rusted voice. The lullaby did serve it purpose as the kids truly fell asleep before he completed the song though his voice was truly terrible. “Enough Carlos!, you are damaging my eardrum with that voice of yours. Gosh! I can’t stand it, I don’t know how the twins enjoyed this your singing till they fell asleep, your voice is terrible! I don’t think I’ve ever heard a voice as bad as yours…”, Alice verbalized with a huff.Carlos rolled his eyes at the authentic drama queen he had come to know and love,”I know my voice might be bad but you are simply making a mountain out of an ant hill. You are exaggerating the entire voice situation, your kids have better hearing sensory than you do to be truthful. They know original when they see it and you my dear are a hater of good singing.”Carlos said proudly.Alice couldn’t help la
After leaving Assistant Jake that day, Alexander Johnson drove to a bar alone. Sitting down at the corner of bar, he sips his drink slowly thinking about the entire events that happened earlier in the day.‘I’ve thought about this all this while till my head is about to bust from all this over thinking, who is this woman and why does she have kids that look so much like me? Was she a one night stand I had years ago? I wasn’t one to have one night stand even when I lost Alice. I’ve never a one night stands in my life, I mostly drunk myself to sleep from morning till evening when I lost Alice. Could she be Alice? Alice was truly the only woman I’ve ever slept with to my knowledge unless I’ve slept with someone else without my knowledge. I’ve never had any sexual encounter with anyone not even with her all those years she abused me. To my knowledge I haven’t slept with anyone else besides Alice so does that mean Alice Jet is my Alice? My Alice? Are-are the children mine? Is that even poss
Taking the address, Alexander didn’t even think twice before leaving the company to the address to see things for himself.He heard laughter of a child when he approached the said address, the laughter wasn’t loud but the wind took it very far away from where he was. Parking his car, he got out of the car to meet a small boy who looks just like him standing in front of him with just the electronic gate separating them.They both stood astound, too surprised to talk, Alexander Johnson didn’t even know when he had approached the small way and was at the gate of the gate. He soon realized that getting that close to the gate made him get a closer look at the boy which left him more than amazed. His mouth gaped in wonder and his body moved on it own accord.He kept opening his mouth to say a word, anything at all to the younger version of himself but nothing seems to be coming out of his mouth. He attempted severally to at least say something, a single word, anything but words failed him.S
“Oh just shut up!….I’m in a fu*king bad mood….I don’t need this stress from you so I’m gonna to ask you for the last time! This is fucking stressful!what the he*k do you want Jane Li?..”! He asked her in a loud voice as he scowled openly at her. Jane Li felt so little as an ant under the scrutinizing gaze of Alexander Johnson, she couldn’t utter any useful word but kept on stammering.“A….Al…..A……….Lex……….Alee……Alllleeeee…Ale………..Ale……Alex….Alexander….”Alexander was losing the little patience he had left, that little patience was hanging on a thin thread. “Jane!!! ……”. Alexander exclaimed in anguish, he was seconds away from holding her by her ears and throwing her out through the windows.“Yes…..yes…sir….no….I mean….yes Alexander..”He wanted to facepalm himself in desperation, the way she was talking now frustrating her than her appearance,”Enough Jane Li! just get out of my office!… no…just leave my company and never ever step a foot in this office ever again in the rest of your
‘Why does it seem like I’ve been in situations like this in the past few days that is leaving me speechless…..wait!…..is that her?…is that their Miss?…..damn!’, she exclaimed to herself in adoration of the woman coming down the stairs.Walking down the stairs like a model on a red carpet was a young woman, dressed in body con dress that fit her like a second skin. She had the skin and body of a goddess, she was more than the word beautiful that even Jane Li found herself admiring her. Her hair in waves were flowing down her back in curls. Her make up was perfectly done in using all natural colors and products, Jane Li was dumbfounded once again. She was watching her with gaped mouth and wide eyes.She didn’t even know when she stood up for her immediately she walked into the room. She questioned her actions, maybe because she was commanding so much respect and power with merely her appearance. Jane Li knew then and there that she wasn’t a hooker.Alice Jet stood in front of Jane Li and
Jane Li looked at her with a sorrowful face,”please Miss Jet…have mercy…she’s only a little child…”, she argued softly. Junior rolled his eyes dramatically and eyed the hypocrite and bias stranger.“Would you have mercy on anyone else if it was Nancy that was that badly bullied and hurt?..” The question asked echoed in the room and Jane shifted uncomfortably in the couch.The person that asked that question was no other person than Alexander Johnson Junior.Avoiding his gaze after her first look at him, she was surprised that such a grown up question came from him.Her eyes unconsciously flew to him and just as before, she was stunned,’this boy looks exactly like Alexander Johnson when he was a kid. He looks so much like him that it’s scary. He doesn’t seem like an ordinary boy either. Anyways would someone like Alice Jet give birth to an ordinary child but I’m wondering who is their father? I can dare say the child looks so much like Alexander that it could be possible that he is thei
“Papa that lowly woman you speak of is Alice Jet of the Jet empire and the reason why I’m saying that Alice Davison might be alive because there’s no explanation about how Alice Jet came about to be a Jet plus she a striking resemblance to Alice Davison like her eyes, that seductive dove like eyes with the same eye color. Also the other twin of the bullied girl looks exactly like Alexander Johnson. I swear it papa, looking at him was like looking at Alexander when we were younger! His voice and words also sounded the same. But the shocking issue about all this is that the surname of the kids also happens to be Johnson and there is absolutely no information about them including Alice Jet any where. I asked Adam to look into her and the kids but he got back to me a while ago that he found nothing on them. It seems like they don’t exist, they don’t exist anywhere Papa!”, Jane exclaimed to him over the phone.Ken Li didn’t know when he became speechless on the phone till he heard Jane cal
