《Sold To The Mafia Lord》 Accidental Meeting Yeah Im off now Amelia Robertson smiled rather coldly at the bartender but not in hate, rather it was due to her solemn expression. She walked out of her favorite bar, her hair were tied up in a ponytail as she dug both hands into her down coat. The twenty one years old Amelia wandered the streets. In the streets of Europe, The soft music from the bar bing inaudible as she moved further away. Chewing on her gum with her earphones on, she walked away from the bar in slow but ragged manner. She hummed along as she moved, navigating the dark street, eyes were heavy as she walked towards her home. Looking deep down, one could tell she was masking her pains, her eyes were a bit red for some reasons. The cold breeze from the night hit her face, she hoped the cold air could sweep away her frustrations and anger as well but it just swept her hair from her face. How frustrating. Her red boot kissed the cold floor that was a bit slippery due to the urrence of rain that happened few minutes ago. Her lonely figure kept walking to her hell hole, a ce others call home but for her, it was a stuffed animal house was that personally designated to make her depressed. She wasnt expecting anything positive. Her solitude was disturbed when a guy walked in front of her with a maniacal smileced on his face. She stopped dead in her track as she slowly raised her brow as she gazed at the guy who was a ck standing in front of her with a stupid grin on his face. She bit her lip in amusement when another guy appeared again. She suddenly felt bored out of her mind. The two were a pr opposite, one was a ck with American ent, he had a full hair, he was so tall and the other was a bit tanned skin with dark hair that was styled to the side, he was shorter than the ck guy. Their eyes zed with mischief as they bothughed and that got Amelia Robertson even more annoyed. Pretty. What do we have here? The ck guy smirked as he eyed Amelia who had a boring expression while looking at them like a moron. His eyes were on Amelia and he let his Lust show on his eyes. Laughing, The tanned skin guy said how about we go back and grab some drinks and maybe a chat, what do you think? He grinned as he looked at his partner. Amelia slowly removed the earphones from her ear I know you wouldnt like to have a talk with me so move away Her tone was hard, her eyes were calm like the calm before the storm. The ck man smiled even more I love them fierce He grinned even more and Amelia rolled her eyes and was ready to walk over them when the ck stretched out his hand to grab her arm. As if her button was pushed, Amelia quickly grabbed his arm, the ck was startled but it was toote when Amelia twisted it to the side and he let out a groan. The tanned akin guy was walking towards them with a knife in his hand Youre gonna get hurt so bad Seeing him approaching, Amelia elbowed the twisted hand on the ck man and his legs passed out as he fell to the ground, she quickly used her boot to kick his jaw and he groaned out in pain, blood sshing from his mouth. The tanned skin guy swung his knife around and Amelia slowly moved back ward. A man sitting in the back seat of the ck car had a nk face as he watch this whole scene unfold. A small smirk showered on his face as he muttered I hope you are still so tough now He was a bit amused at the scene that was ying out. He was captivated to this scene when the girl grabbed the mans arm and twisted it really cruelly. He loved cruelty and so he was attracted to the fight between the two men and a youngdy in red boots. Not noticing the gaze, Amelia only concentrated on the tanned skin guy who swung the knife towards her and she moved to the side to avoid getting cut by it. Take this The man shouted as he jumped to stab her and Amelia bit her lower lip as she turn to take to her heels but the mans groaning sound made her halt. She stood still as the mans groaning slowly died down, he was in pain. She slowly inclined her head to the back, her body turning along with her body. Her translucent ck eyes widen in shock when seeing a man walking away from the scene and the tanned skin guy was lying in the pool of his own blood. Amelia gasped as she raised her head again to look for the man but he was out of sight and just then, the ck car parked not too far from the scene drove away and Amelia let out a sigh. She walked towards the dead tanned skin man and kicked his shoulder in disgust. With that, she turn and started walking back to her hell, to meet her father and his beloved family. Alexanders POV Thats my decision and its final, Ive loaned the money to him and his daughter will be getting married to you by tomorrow.. Lorraine Ron, my dad said in fury. Dad you cant possibly force me to get married, women are gold diggers and I dont need those eves I argued as I didnt want to settle not now, and not ever. I was a twenty five years old man. You arent getting any younger son, Ive made preparation already, all you have to do is show upmy dad tried to reason with me. The only people I respect and as well confide in were my parents and my younger brother. I was left with no option Okay fine Dad, Ill be there I said with gritting teeth feeling rather stupid. Thats it, son, this girl isnt like every other girl, shes different and hard toe by. Now please dont try to patronize me, I dont buy those shits, eve will remain Eve. I couldnt put a woman on my good book as all of them Ive seen, they all want to sleep their way to my bed and they disgust me. Ive bedded some of them but after the first time, there wasnt going to be another time with that same person. I could feel my dad was frustrated as he sighed Whatever you say, Ill text you the location soon. After disconnecting the call, I felt drained, Am I getting married like Liam and George??. Liam and George were my close allies and friends, they had always mocked me for being single but I guess when they heard I was getting married tomorrow, the mockery would be worse. Being a popr Business tycoon and as well, a mafia. The don X of the Underworld. I, Alexander Ron, wasnt so fond of the idea of settling for one woman. I sighed as I walked towards my car in the garage, I felt a ring and sharp gaze on me, and just as I was about to open the car, a bullet was fired at me. I immediately bent, pulled my gun from my back pocket, and walked in between the rows of cars in a squatting manner. Shit. The ipetent bastard kept shooting in my direction not knowing I left there and walking towards the pir he or she was currently hiding. A few steps away from the pir, the bastard drew out his gun, ready to shot at me when I grabbed his arm and sprained his ankle, letting the gun fall off his hands, as I kicked it far away from us. I couldnt waste my time with an idiot so I immediately shot him, hey lifeless on the floor of the garage, and on his uniform was a printed badge. RED KINGS. Those scumbags, mother f**kers. I wiped my hands with a handkerchief and dialed the number of Garye to the garage and clean up a corpse I said and immediately ended the call. Then I walked towards my car, sat on my sit and called the head of securities, Reinforce more men and tighten the security at mypany and in my house, I give you twenty hours . I was d no employee was still in the office to witness this type of situation. Soon I drove off in my car. Arriving at my big mansion which I never felt was lonely but fit my temperament. The maids bowed as I walked upstairs to my room on the third floor, threw my coat on the cushion close by. My room was painted ck, with ck curtains and a big king-size bed covered in grey sheets and a ck duvet. I felt so tired as hell as I walked towards the bathroom washed up and came out with a towel around my waist. Water dripping from my hair, down to my abs, the dim light in my room made it more seductive and distant. I used another towel to wipe dry my hair, I wasnt fond of using the hair dryer so I tended to wipe my hair that way. Soon after, I changed into casual nightwear and soon dozed off. Amelias POV when I got to the hell hole called my house, I noticed the stiff and quiet atmosphere in the living room. There they were, birds of same feathers, the husband and the wife. Luke Robertson was my damn father and Marion Robertson was my stepmom but why I couldnt see their spoilt brat, Jolie Robertson, my stepsister was still confusing because they were a happy family of three, excluding me. Seeing me walk into the parlor, my dad turned his head toward my direction Amelia,e right here. I secretly rolled my eyes as I walked towards them, standing in the middle of the living room. Amelia, were in Trouble.. my father said. I so wanted to say, youre the ones in trouble and not we, not me.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Your sister has been hospitalized, she was beaten to a pup by some jealous ssmates and she is in critical condition. I raised an eyebrow, and so?? So we couldnt put the burden on you my father added. Put the burden on me?? Such funny couples, was I the one who gave birth to your shitty slut??I couldnt resist but tell them to their faces. Hey you bitch, you are the slut, arent you ashamed?? You should be the one paying for the medical bills but anyways we came up with a new idea so let your father arrive at that point my stepmom spoke for the first time since the conversation started, there were dark circles around her eyes, she must have probably cried her eyes out for her dear daughter. My dad cleared his throat as he hit the nail on the head Tomorrow youll be getting married to the son of Loraine Ron, we borrowed a huge sum of money from them for your sisters surgery. Tomorrow youd be getting married. Tomorrow youd be getting married. Those words kept repeating in my head, was this how my life would turn out. Never, you can as well marry your dear wife to him, but I?? Never I spat out. Then watch me my father barked at me and I snared at the shameless couples. You must get married, you have no use in this house, your sister brings money home for food but you.. you bring trouble. I couldnt listen to their nonsense as I walked to my room, after shutting the door, I noticed something was off, I walked towards the window but before I could reach there. My door was locked from the outside, I turned and tried to open it using the knob but to no avail, then I walked towards the window and saw that my window had been locked and sealed with a lot of screws, no source of venttion except the AC in my room and that was when it hit me. Ive been locked with no chance of escape!!! Getting Married Amelias POV It was a Tuesday morning, I woke up from the left side of my bed. Stretched my arms and walked towards my mirror, I nearly shouted. I freaking look like a widow who was about to run mad, my hair was all messy. I grumbled as I walked to my bathroom to brush my teeth and took a long shower, I felt fresh as I hummed a song while applying my lotions.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. My skin was so smooth, and that was a disadvantage cause Jolie so hated the fact that I was prettier, Im not bragging though. It was a fact, that I was the replica of my mom whom my stepmom, Marion despised. Just then the doorknob of my room twisted and noises could be heard on the other side. I frowned as I remembered what today was all about. Gosh, my wedding. I facepalm, I wasnt the type of girl to cry over things easily but this getting sold to a stranger?? It was too hard to bear. How can a father sell his daughter?? Selfish man, I hate them all. There was never a time I was part of this family, after the death of my mother due to a car ident and my father brought home his mistress with a child. My life had changed for the worst but I kept pulling up my guts, I wasnt the weak type of girl or a damsel in distress waiting for a prince charming to save her. I had already epted my fatest night, I knew I could do nothing about it, the only thing Im nervous about it how the damn husband looked like. Pushing the door open, my dad walked in alongside my stepmom and a few women. Okay you can start doing your job, the grooms family will being soon my father shamelessly said. I remained still, sitting there and letting thedies do their thing, I remained expressionless all through. I could hear shouts andughter downstairs close to the garden, lots of chattering. I couldnt believe this day would evere when Id get married to a man I never like. Though I never had a love life I Knew what was best for me and getting married to a rich, cold, and arrogant man as the tale goes, made me know that this whole thing; this whole marriage stuff was sure going to be doomed. Done with the makeup and styling my hair, I was made to slide into my simple wedding dress. Body fitting white dress, with diamond stones all over the chest area, it was a toe length dress, with a side cut making it look ssic. I hadnt imagined myself in a wedding dress before as I stared at the girl who was staring at me from the mirror. Was this me?? I fucking look ssic, beautiful, sexy, and mesmerizing. Oops my bad, I just love to praise myself a lot hehe I was pleased with the dress but not pleased with whatever was happening. I sat down after wearing the dress with a cold expression. Alexanders POV I groaned as George kept fixing the damn tie, he was clearly making a joke of me. Can you be fast about it, youre choking me you bastard I spat out as I was so tired of his deliberate clumsiness. Hey rx, no one is going to steal your bride, youre being in too much of a hurry, let me take my time and dress the groom of the year George chuckled at that, he was probably having fun right now. I seriously hate you, I said feeling my forehead in exasperation. I love you dear hehe Georgeughed as hard as he could. But anyway, he knotted the tie and I was free from his clutches, I walked towards the silent Liam, who was sitting on the bed checking something on hisptop. Hey Xander, take a look Liam beckoned to me but I was toozy toe over as todays n was messing with my sanity. Seeing that I wasnting, George went to meet Liam. Was I calling you?? Liam asked George. You called for someone who doesnt feel the need toe so I came instead, whats the deal about it?? George could be so shameless at times, I rolled my eyes. Wow, who do we have here?? George eximed when he looked at Liamsptop. Thats Alexs bride, Liam answered immediately irking my curiosity as I stood up and walked toward them. Woah, are you going to fall in love now?? George teasingly asked but I ignored his babbling as I moved toward Liamsptop. There was a picture of a girl, she looked young but the background seemed like a military training camp, I frowned at that, was she a military??. Ive asked Gary to investigate her but I still dont know why he hasnt reported back, well leave it. She was beautiful though but a woman remains a woman, shesing for the money. Gold diggers. I snorted as I left them and walked outside, as they ran after me, walking towards the garage, I received a text from my dad saying that I shoulde to the venue immediately, I sat at the back seat with Liam and George on the passenger seat, as the driver drove us. On our way, my phone rang, after the call went through a voice came Don I gotten her information. Keep them in my office, Ill check it outter. I disconnected the call and soon enough we were at the wedding. It happened so fast that I was already standing on the alter with the girl who can be considered pretty, I was frowning and she had a deadpan expression. We were the exact description of the weird couples of the century. It beats my expectations, I thought she might cling to me, try to gain my attention or stuff but here she was, not smiling, not frowning. Just going with the flow as if it was a nightmare that didnt belong to her. Do you Amelia Robertson take Alexander Ron as yourwfully wedded husband, promise to love and cherish, in joy and sorrow, sickness and in health, till death do you part?? The priest asked her but she remained silent and I dimmed my eyes a bit to size her up. She was about 53 feet tall, with ck hair and a small tender face but had a hidden fierceness in it, small cherry-shaped lips. Do you.. before the priest could repeat it she answered. I do I could see her parents breathe in a sigh of relief and I snicker at them. I felt a little sympathy for her for having such shits as parents, they are too much. Do you Alexander Ron take Amelia Robertson as yourwfully wedded wife, promise to love and cherish, in joy and in sorrow, sickness and in health, till death do you part?? This Time it was my turn, I made my fists into a tight ball and said. Yes I do Never, it wasnt till death do us apart, it was till six months do us apart.. Amelias POV After the wedding was concluded, I and my groom sat in his car, heading towards his home. It was such a long and silent drive, nobody talked to each other as we didnt feel the need to. After the car parked in hispound that could be considered big, with a very big house. As if waiting for the car to park for a long time, Alexander jumped down from the car carrying his suit in his hand as he made his way to the house. The heck, how was I supposed to go in myself??. I came down from the car, feeling lost but I didnt let it show on my face. Just then a woman walked towards me, bowed, and said; Mrs. Amelia Ron, Ill escort you inside. I felt awkward with the name attached to mine. Just call me Amelia The woman let out a smallugh Sir wont permit that. I was a bit speechless and gave up persuading her. I secretly rolled my eyes as I followed her in. I was shown to my room as I settled in, I walked to the closet to drop my luggage but was stunned at what I saw. The closets were filled with clothes from different brands. Everything inside was screaming Money, shoes, bags, and all types of brands of clothes. I just threw my luggage to the side took a shower and changed into a short and top. I tied my hair in a ponytail as I sat to think about my next step when I heard a knock on my door. I opened it and a voice came Mrs. Ron, sir asks for you in his study room. Oh.. I nodded as I followed the man to the study room. When we got there, he knocked on the door and his voice came from inside. Come in He pushed the door open but didnt enter as I walked into the study. He was there, sitting on a chair close to his table. The study was dark with lots of books on the shelf, there were several sofas there. Sit hemanded authoritatively and that irked me. Excuse you, Alexander Ron, Im not your puppet you order around, I know what to do I spat out. I wasnt the type to be ordered around. He creased his forehead as he was infuriated, he made his way toward me and I instinctively took a step back. How dare you?? He shouted as he grabbed my neck, choking me, and pressed me to the wall. Dont you dare, defy my orders. Im your husband so you dare not He granted his teeth while still gripping my neck. My face was flushed as I let a tear fall down. This was my life, I was betrayed by my parents so I had to bear it, I couldnt show weakness. As if something hit him, he let go of my neck walked towards his chair, and sat down in anger. Now, sit your ass down woman I slowly walked to his chair as if nothing happened earlier, sat on the chair nonchntly. I felt his gaze on me for a while before pulling a file out from his pile of documents and throwing it in my direction. On the top of the book was boldly written CONTRACT. I greased my brows as I opened the first page which contains rules; 1, you must abide by my words without questioning my authority. I snorted at him, Hello Mr, were in the twenty-first century Who wants a girl to worship him these days?? Please grow Then I continued with the other rules. 2, dont mingle or ask questions about my private life ( beware of your boundaries). As if I was going to I continued anyway 3, while were still married, you cant have any other rtionships unless were not together anymore. Well this third rule, I canply but that rule should also apply to you too, stay put and tell all your fuck buddies that youre on leave 4, there might be times when we have to get too touchy, especially when my parents are around. 5, if eventually you get pregnant for me, Ill keep the child in my custody. Hey Im never going to get pregnant with your damn child. He red at me, Well see about that then I rolled my eyes. 6, do not go anywhere close to my room. Are you perhaps hiding a concubine there?? I asked with narrowed eyes. He let out a smallugh before getting serious all of a sudden. Do not go there he gritted out. 7, do NOT fall in love with me.. Geez. I definitely agree to this part of the deal, do not fall in love with me.. I smirked because it made a little sense or should I say I am too confident? But either ways. Alexander scoffed You seem to be too over confident in yourself or it seem somebody of some sorts has been feeding you up with lies And whats to suppose to mean? I asked with raised brows, I knew my eyes were about to bore an hole in his body but I couldnt care less. Never mind Alexander saidzily as he rxed his back on the chair. I just ignored him and continued with the book. this contract expires in 6 months, after that.. well divorce. Well divorce in six months?? I asked. He turned towards me Yes, for your information, I do not hate you because from your expression at the aisle, you had no idea so making you suffer for what you know nothing about. thats rude I guess, but I dont like women, yes I dont like them so well divorce after six months. I nodded that was reasonable, from there well go our separate way. Youll be earning 800, 000 dors a month What the fuck?? That was a lot of money.! Woah, I thought we were married, well I like this employer-to-employee rtionship more He snorted Women, you all like money I cant do without it Sir I teased. Interesting. Then thats all for today he said as he cleared his throat. I grinned at him and he raised an eyebrow. Then I got up and walked out of the study towards my room. I jumped on the bed while thinking. Before the contract expires, I would have already bought a new house. Then Ill be freaking rich!!! A Coincidence Alexanders POV She seems different from the other girls though, but I was still adamant about remaining married. Then I remembered that I hadnt checked her documents, I had Gary do a background check on her before our wedding but I still havent read it. I walked towards my desk and saw the documents on the piles of books on my tables. I sat on my cushion chair, with my legs crossed, I opened the seal and started reading. Amelia Be Robertson was born in 2002 on the 11th of February by Hannah and Luke Robertson, a citizen of this country.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. An ex-student from Thomasville College who studied in the military camp in Algeria, has a close friend called Aditi from the military. Mrs Hannah died of cancer ten years ago when Amelia was still eleven years of age, her father brought home his mistress and an eight years old daughter, Amelia was never treated fairly in the family, she was a ve in her own home and punished by her stepmom, Marion from the Scott family. She was sold to Mr Alexander Casper Ron to pay her sisters medical bills. At this point, I felt so weak. Shes gone through a lot, the least I could do was try to tolerate her. I was so lost in my thoughts when my phone vibrated. My dad was calling, I answered the call. Hey son. Good day Dad I greeted. Hows my daughter-inw doing?? He asked, just then I heard some noise from the other side as if my dad was in an argument with someone. And then, the other side remained silent, and then a voice came through Alexander dear It was my mom, she might have been arguing with my dad to talk to me, she always had a way of doing things, so my dad was submissive toward her. Hello Mother I greeted her warmly. Wheres my daughter?? So close already?? I raised an eyebrow. She might probably be in her room right now, I said calmly. Probably?? That is you arent even sure. Cmon Mom, shes not a kid. Just then my dads voice followed. Son, no matter how you see it, Id advise you give her a chance, shes a nice and caring girl, hard toe by but you treating her like this is so. unfair, thats not how a husband treats his wife for Christ sake, love and cherish her, I promise youll be the one benefitting from it, so I know you think all women are gold diggers but trust me when I say this girl is good. I secretly rolled my eyes, if only they knew that the said daughter-inw didnt need a chance but cool cash. My dad kept hammering words to my ears, advising me until forever. I saw reasons with him though but that didnt change my mindset I made a mental note to let her be. After the call, I walked downstairs and saw her sitting on the floor at the back of a cushion as if trying to spy on something. I creased my brows as I walked towards her noiselessly to see what she was up to, she was just there in a kneeing position at the back of the cushion, from the side, she leaned her head towards the side to see what she was looking at, She was so engrossed and that pricked my curiosity. I walked to her back, bent a bit on top of her, making sure our bodies didnt touch not to make her aware I was leaning on her in such a way. I stretched my head to see what she was looking at and saw that she was trying to pet my dog, my dog wasnt fun. It was a dog that looked like a panther, he had long fangs and ws. It seems like Amelia was trying to befriend him but he wasnt buying any of her tricks Hey, want some bacon?? Breads?? She said as she took some pieces of bread close to him, but the dog just growled at her without turning to her not even once. She was all sweaty at this point. Why was she trying so hard to befriend my dog?? I facepalm as I shook my head, my dog wouldnt eat such things as bread but she was giving him bread. I was amused by this scene, I felt intrigued as I watched the scene, looking for what would happen next. But seems like my luck ran out when my dog turned towards me and started barking while wagging his tail. I was currently bending on top of Amelia in a rather.. suggesting way. I was about to get up so Amelia wouldnt catch me on top of her when she all of a sudden, turned her head up and we met each others gaze. I was so startled that I fell off her to the ground. But seems like my falling was a much more awkward thing to do. I was on the floor, with my back on the ground, she crawled towards me and faced me. We were just gazing at each other, I was literally staring straight at her green-colored eyeballs. It was so beautiful, so tranquil and calm as if purposely attracting the onlooker to keep exploring them and falling deeper. I was so lost in my fantasy when I heard. Alex, were you checking me out from the back you pervert??. Alex?? Are we that close now??. I frowned when I heard the pervert part. Heyy dont overrate yourself, you arent someone I would throw a second gaze at, I said as a matter of factly but my brain was still recalling how she called me Alex, I liked how my name sounded in her mouth though. You better be kidding me right?? Amy was so infuriated. Was I referring to her as Amy now?? Huh. We were having the conversation with me still lying down, and her kneeling beside me, but this time, she had both hands on my sides as if caging me. Her head was a few centimeters away from me. My breathing hitched as I calmly gazed at her. She was beautiful. You seriously need to work on yourself, I mean you look like a mummy. Hey you motherfucker, bastard Ron, Ill kill you She turned to grab a pillow that fell from the chair and started throwing them at my face, I tried to dodge and run away when she jumped on me. But at that moment, I coincidentally turned when she was about to fall on me, and then. BAM!!! Our lips got smashed together in a kiss, and we stared with wide eyes.. Feeling Of Adrenaline Alexanders POV I was so stunned at how the event turned out. I forgot to remove my lips from hers as I felt the texture of her lips. So soft and sweet like watermelon and strawberries. She quickly got off me and stood up. I suddenly felt empty, just lying there I wanted to kiss her. Yes that was what was in my head, screaming for me to grab her back and devour her lips. I coughed a bit trying to clear the awkwardness between us. I got up to meet her sitting on the couch, I walked towards her and I saw her gripping the helm of her skirt so firmly. I crouched down close to her, facing her. I let out a dry cough Amy are you alright?? That about earlier It was nothing hehe and besides were a husband and a wife so She tried to shake off the tension she was feeling. The words husband and a wifes shook me terribly, it felt so good to me that she referred to me as one but I still couldnt swallow the lump in my throat. I smiled a little as she gazed everywhere else without looking at me.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Can you cook?? I asked a random question that just came out of my mouth without me thinking first, I was confused at how I was feeling right now, it seemed my medu couldnt process or function well when she was near me. Yeah, wanna have some instant noodles?? She asked with full excitement. I sighed as I immediately got the message, she couldnt cook anything else except noodles. No we cant have that now, the chef is cooking dinner already, I said as I watched her eyes to see if my words hurt her. She only sighed as she looked back at me Hey, I seriously dont look like a mummy like what youpared me to earlier she barked at me all of a sudden. I chuckled a bit while raising an eyebrow I dont know but I feel like you look exactly like one. She hit me on the shoulder as she snarled at me Can you be less brutal sometimes? I chuckled a bit. That will hurt if I do I said, diverting the main topic but she only rolled her eyes at me while snorting I felt amused because she was different from other girls just as Father said. If it were other girls, they would cry non-stop while feigning hurt because of simple noodles, she just let it slide without thinking about it anymore, she wasnt petty, and I finally knew. Soon dinner was served We both had dinner in silence and when she was done, I saw her slip on her chair, resting her back on it. I lifted my upper lips ready to tease her. Glutton She immediately threw her head toward my direction in fury, I just ate nonchntly while pretending I didnt see her ring at me Her nostrils red up as she started staring me. Are you seriously a son of Lorraine Ron?? Whats that suppose to mean?? I asked in displeasure, wondering what brought about the question. You are a pr opposite of your dad Amelia said with streamy eyes. I scoffed talk as if you know him personally, hes no good I said nonchntly. But do not worry when Fatheres Ill tell him about this I threatened. Tell him about what?? She asked while dropping the spoon, seemingly obedient. I felt perplexed Wait, are you scared of my dad but not me?? Because I was surprised how she always bicker words with me and not giving a damn about me or my personality but at the mention of my dad, she became docile. Im not scared of him, I just respect him Hmm wanna y the good daughter-inw role I snorted at her. Gross, why would I do that?? For what?? I thought about doing that for a moment but canceled that thought I became curious all of a sudden as I turned towards her. And why did you cancel the thought?? She simply shrugged her shoulders as she spitted out those words Cause, well be done with this whatever in six months she nonchntly said the words. I felt something left me, I felt depressed, like I didnt want this whole thing to be six months. I felt vexed as I red at her You know.. you shouldnt be talking about whats going to happen in six months, lets focus on these moments I said trying to adjust my mood. It was I who brought the idea of six months, that well be divorcing in six months but when she mentioned it, I felt uneasy. Yeah youre right she answered. At least she was sensible and did not mention it anymore throughout the meal. Soon I got a call from Elliot and walked out of the dining room, leaving her. I walked to my study to make the call What did you find?? I went straight to the point when the call got connected. Don, the red Kings, and Venom are a team now, theyre nning to hunt us down You know the warehouse of Lorenzo Go, visit there I gritted my teeth in fury. Lorenzo Go was the leader of the venom. I narrowed my eyes, the venom were once our business partner, we sold some firearms to them to execute their mission on several asions but due to some issue, we cancelled our partnership. So they have connived with my opponent to drag me down, never. Too bad for them cause I was born prepared. After making the phone call, I was about to sleep when my phone vibrated again. Was it so hard for some people to cut me some ck?? Its fucking midnight!! Who the hell is calling. I was irritated as I grabbed my phone. Hey biggie bro, hows our sister-inw doing??, we havent had the time toe greet you officially after your wedding It was only the stupid George who referred to me as biggie bro. You know youre irritating sometimes. its midnight already, you fucking hawk if you dont sleep. I do, Im not a sadist I barked at him in irritation. Oh please biggie, cut me that shit, I and Liam areing tomo. I didnt wait for him to continue as I ended the call, he might me cursing at me now. I stayed in my study for a while, thinking about how to handle the red Kings and venom. It was exactly 11 pm when I came out from the study, heading towards my room. Just then I heard some noiseing from downstairs, it was a sound of something cutting. A sound of metal hitting metal. I immediately became alerted as I went into my study and pulled out my pistol from my drawer, holding it while heading downstairs where the sounds wereing from. Cravings Amelias POV A few minutes ago. When Alexander left to make the call earlier, I was kinda hoping for him toe back but I guess he had something more important to take care off. I sat there for a while and then, I felt somethinge near my leg under the table. I checked and saw the white panther dog. I guess that was what I named him. I bend to his level but he just wagged his tail at me, not even zing in my direction. This dog has more pride than his master. I walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge and saw some meat. I grabbed it and went to the dog, it looked at me. And then turned away, then he turned towards me again before hesitating. He walked to me and just then he turned and ran away. What a sensitive dog, he was probably trained to be this sensible. I felt tired as I walked towards my room andy there, unable to fall asleep. I checked my Instagram ount and saw that I gained more followers and I was a bit happy about the progress. I got up and walked down to the kitchen, I was seriously craving noodles. I went to the kitchen store burst open a carton of noodles and took two out. I brought out the ingredients Ill be needing. I took a knife and tried to cut some onions but it was just too difficult so I took another knife. And started chopping the onions in different shapes and sizes. It was convenient to use two knives. I took a tomato and raised the knives at it when suddenly I heard. Whats your problem?? The angry Alex walked towards her with a gun in his hand. I was scared out of my wits as I stepped back. What are you doing?? Didnt you have dinner a while ago?? He barked at me. I just stood there, gazing at him I. I had dinner but I just crave noodles I managed to say those words. Wow.. in the middle of the night, he said no longer shouting. I just shrugged my shoulders as I rxed a bit. He sighed as he stared at me for a while as if discerning about something then he dragged a chair close by and sat down, dropped his gun on the kitchen counter. Okay, continue I raised a brow at him wanna have some?? I dont eat junk foods he replied coolly. Thats bad I smug as I went back to what I was doing. Why not use one knife?? He suddenly asked. This way is much better I dont think so cause you have to position the tomato well enough for you to cut, thats too much of a hassle he spoke. I rolled my eyes without replying as I focused on my noodles. Soon it was cooked, I grabbed a bowl and poured it into it and I took a fork. It looked so colorful. I rolled the noodles in my fork and brought it up to blow on it. Alexander sat there staring at me. Iughed a bit and swallowed the noodles whole, Alex just turned his head away. Are you sure that is safe?? He asked again as I swallowed another mouthful. Sure it is, the life of the poor is more fun than the solemn life of you fucking rich dudes, its too boring here I said as I rolled some noodles on the fork and blew on it before passing it to him. He declined but I insisted. Take it, its not gonna bite you ha I gestured for him to open his mouth. He frowned before silently opening his mouth and I shoved the noodles inside his mouth. I read his expression as he chewed the noodles. He chewed it slowly as if trying to savor the taste and then he swallowed it. I stood up to get water, but before I coulde back he was already in possession of my bowl of noodles. Hey freak, give me back my bowl now I shouted at him. You cant possibly be stingy right now, make another bowl of noodles Alexander shamelessly said to my face. I was so enraged that I dropped the water bottles on the table and ran after him. He ran with the bowl to the living room and I chased after him. Weter reconciled as we shared the bowl of noodles, though it was a survival of the fittest. I ate them hot, while he preferred to blow on them well before eating. I enjoyed the noodles more than he did. I just sat there before he turned towards me sounding serious You have to be careful Amelia, Ive got some enemies, and you know how it works, you are my wife even if its by name only try as much as possible to remain safe, he said seriously while taking my hand in his. I nodded obediently, I wasnt stupid, I knew their dirty business and all thates with it. He smiled a bit before rubbing my head, I immediately frowned. Dont do that, Im not a kid or a puppy I said frustrated. What if I say you are?? He asked. He had this expression on his face that seemed as if he was ready to torment me. Im. Im what?? Youre a puppy I sighed while biting my inner cheek. I have no words for you I didnt know why he was so daring and always taunting me. Heughed at me as my face flushed. Just then, we heard a gunshot and we immediately turned serious.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. The rm went off and the whole mansion was alerted. We’re Coming For You Alexanders POV I brought out my gun and beckoned to Amelia to get down. I left her in the kitchen and walked towards my living room, the rm was still on as my bodyguards rushed outside to see the intruder. After all the search we didnt see anyone but a note that was scribbled. I took it and slowly opened the note and saw these words. Wereing for you I frowned as I folded the note in my tight fist as anger crawled into my system. They dare toe to warn me in my territory. The nerves! I was angry and I matched inside and saw Amelia gazing at me, I walked pass her in fury. She didnt say a word I barged into my study and called Gary Have you blown down their warehouses,pany, penthouses, Everything !!??? I asked with gritted teeth. Yes sir, Ive dispatched men to do the deeds Gary responded and I ended the call. After a while when I was calm, I went to meet Amelia, she was in her room. Wrapped in a towel, she seems to have juste out of the bathroom, her hair was wet. Hey, I said calmly. She was so shocked as she looked at me and held her towel tighter to her body. Cant you knock!? She said while raising her tone a bit at me. I walked out of the room, I didnt want to have an issue with her. I didnt leave the door but rather knocked on it. Can Ie in?? I asked to make sure. .. seriously? Well you can she said and I opened the door and came in. Are you scared?? I asked her because girls of her age didnt want to have anything to do with mafias and to worsen it all, she was here because she had no choice. Yeah, Im really scared of you raping me right now, she said again while applying her lotion. Shut up, that isnt my question I was frustrated at the girl. Ooh Were you scared of what happened earlier?? I asked again. Didnt you investigate and did a background check on me?? I once lived in the military so its nothing new. Oh that was right, Ive read it in her bio. Okay then, I said and walked towards the door to leave but I turned to her anyway Can, I sleep in your room tonight?? I asked softly. Scared?? she said whileughing at me and I immediately canceled my thoughts of sleeping with her tonight. Never mind I turned to leave. You can! I was only joking she said and I immediately walked toward her bed and bounced on it. For some reason, I wanted to perceive her feminine scent while sleeping and that would be a whole new wonderful feeling. Soon she climbed onto the bed, I thought she might let me cuddle with her but she just used two pillows to separate us. She ced two pillows between us and she fell asleep. It took a while before I slowly and meticulously grabbed hold of the pillow to remove it but it felt stuck. I tried to drag it but it didnt remove that was when I saw her hand gripping the other end of the pillow. If I were to remove it forcefully, I would alert her and she wouldnt allow me to sleep on her bed again. I just sighed as Iy down on the bed while thinking about the incident earlier. Soon I slept off in my thoughts. It was soon morning time and I woke up, I received a text from Elliot that I shoulde to my warehouse quickly. I turned to see the girl who looked so beautiful, sleeping close to me. I didnt know when a smile crept up to my lips, I immediately shook my head to clear those thoughts away. I got up and walked towards my room to dress up for work. I was knotting my tie when I heard a knock on the door, I raised a brow at who was that. Whos there?? I asked because not everybody darese to knock on my door. Its me, Amelia! Amelia said from the other side. I made an O with my mouth as I left the tie still unknot as I walked towards the door. I opened it and she walked in, with head down, not looking at me for some reason I felt the need to correct that. Raise your head when talking to me, Im not the devil, Im your husband no matter how you see it, I said with some unknown feelings that were making me restless. I wasnt bowing my head because I am scared of you, Im not scared of you, she said while raising her head and looking at me as if she was about to punch me any moment. I gave a smallugh and used my thumb to clean my lip Is that so?? Yes! She didnt hesitate before saying that out loud. If anyone were to find out that This girl was boldly saying she wasnt afraid of me, to my face. They might faint while worrying for her.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. What do you have to say then?? I asked as I turned to knot my tie. Instead of answering me, she walked close to me removed my hands from the tie, and started helping me with that. She looked so focused doing that, I found her so attractive and pretty as my eyes went down to her lips. I swallowed hard as a naughty thought came to my mind. Shes your wife, it isnt a crime to have a Taste of her. Well can you help me with something?? Amelia asked. Go straight to the point! I said while checking the watch after she finished tying my tie neatly. When youre back from work, Amelia said and took a step back. I raised a brow Then why did you ask now instead ?? It was because I thought you wouldnt agree to it so I came to make sure first, Amelia said and I just shook my head. Let Me Manage My Man Alexanders POV I walked out of my room with Amelia strolling behind me, I felt a sense of warmth. I felt for once, happy. like a normal couple whose wife escorts the husband to the door in the morning. Be careful! I heard from my back and a small smile crept up to my lips. I couldnt help but turn to face her Want me to be careful?? I dont just want you to get hurt! Amelia said as she stood there while fiddling with her shirt. Then give me a kiss to wish me good luck, I said naughtily as I stared down at her. She swallowed hard I.. I I raised a brow at her reluctance since she couldnt do it, then Ill do the Favour. I grabbed her head, raised her chin, and used my thumb finger to rub her lower lip. My gun moved up and down as I stared at her cherry-like lips. I went in for a kiss but she looked away and I paused while gazing at her. Be good I said and turned her face before kissing her lower lip and going for the upper one. I became so intoxicated as I grabbed her head and pressed her lips on mine to have more of her taste. Amelia held my hand that was pressing on her head as she gasped for breath and I immediately let her lips go. Her face was so red, I bent down to kiss the remaining moisture on her lips. This time she hit my shoulder Hey dont do that! I only smiled before turning to leave and she continued to walk behind me. As we got to the stairs, I heard amotion outside of the house and I immediately frowned. Let us in! This is our daughters house, my son-inw owns this house, I could possibly get him to fire you. Amelia frowned when hearing her father and stepmothers voice. I just sighed as I studied her expression, she was about to walk out when I held her hand and she stared at me quizzically. Dont worry, Ill deal with them! I said to her with a small smile and she rxed a bit. I beckoned to the bodyguard to let theme in. Oh my!! so mean Marionined as she walked in. Oh my son, how have you been?? Amelia dear,e greet mama Marion immediately said trying to gain My favor. Go straight to the point, I asked emotionlessly as I gazed at the two couples who were so shameless. Clearing his throat, Mr. Robertson said Huh the thing is we came to see our daughter, we havent had the time toe visit her since you both got married in that way And which way did we get married?? I asked spitefully. Ehh you know, how you acquired her! Mr. Robertson said in nervousness while referring to how my father bought Amelia just to get me a wife. The thought of that made me angry, no matter what she was still my wife. If you are here to cause trouble, then you both better leave, Amelia said and I could feel her hand that I was holding, trembled. I gave a slight squeeze to her hand. How can you be so hateful and unfilial to drive your parents out of your matrimonial home?? Marion said as she feigned teary eyes and I felt the urge to snort at her. She was so good at acting. So sly and vile-looking!! Son, talk to your wife, shes being mean to us unnecessarily! Marion said while facing me. As you said her matrimonial home! She has every right to choose who stays and who leaves I said with a cold re at Marion. Umm son, its not like that, we just Mr Robertson tried to exin on his wifes behalf. Be fast with what you came here for, I have to go to work I said interrupting him. Marion and Mr Robertson exchanged nces as if telling the other to talk first. I looked at Amelia who was just feeling embarrassed for her parent. Sometimes I pity her for having such parents. You see matter what, shes still my daughter Mr Robertson started. You seized from being her father the very day she got married to me, she is no longer Amelia Robertson but Amelia Alexander Ron, I said with pride as I held her close to myself.Cntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org I felt Amelias gaze on me but I just looked straight ahead. Mr Robertson stumbled for words to say, as he thought it through. You no longer have a daughter called Amelia, she is now my daughter, wife, and better half I said every word slowly and surely Now say what you need Emm that. we came to, we came to ask for some cash to enroll her little sister in college, Marion said instead without An ounce of shame in her. And where did you keep the money you came to ask for?? Before I could reply, Amelia had already fired at them. You arent the one Im asking the money from Gosh, you are still poor, I came to ask my son inw Marion said with a snarl. My expression immediately dropped in few degrees when I saw Marion snarl at my wife. It was also snarling at me, and its an insult to me. You aint getting any penny from him, and of course, since I am no longer your daughter, he is not your son inw so you both are not weed in here Amelia snorted at them, turning to me she said and on no ount should youply to their wants, else dont bother talking to me I felt amused at her threatening me, the Don X of the underworld, it was so unheard of. Yes, my queen! I said anyways just to spite her parents. I must say, she had a sharp tongue and knew how to use words. Hey you, watch your mouth you are being prideful because you got married to a wealthy man, bet me hes going to throw you out when hes Marions statement didntnd well when Amelia gave her a tight p. She was so provoked, I had wanted to teach Marion a lesson but Amelia beat me to it. I respect my elders but you went too far, you dont talk about my marriage, you have no right to. let me worry about my marriage and manage my man! Amelia said with veins popping on her forehead. I rested my eyes on her face and she looked like a venomous puppy who was stepped on the tail. We Made Vows Alexanders POV I felt proud of the way she defended us as I red at Marion. You went too far, youre nobody to us so better take your leave before I get the guards to help you with that! I said with gritted teeth. Marion swallowed hard Then, what about the money?? We have to go with it Marion said shamelessly. Yes thats right, son you cant just abandon us just like that! Mr Robertson said while his wife nodded in support. Im not your son, we arent rted so get the fuck out of my house I was a bit patient with them as the man was the one who gave birth to my wife. You wont suck even a penny from my husband, Amelia said as she grabbed my hand which I stared down at our hand. You watch your mouth, he bought you with good money Marion spitted. We still got married, we made vows to each other, Amelia said and I wondered where that came from. At that point, I lost it as I beckoned to the guards at the side and they grabbed them. Heyy dont touch me you rascal Marion shouted but the guard didnt budge as he carried her on his shoulder. Drop my wife you son of a bastard, drop her now! Mr Robertson shouted but he was pushed out by another guard. Honey help me! Marion said as her stomach churned because she was on the strong shoulder of the guard. Amelia sighed as she wiped her forehead and gazed at me Im sorry for the trouble they caused Its okay, its not your fault, I said to her. Well, thanks for defending me earlier though, ahh I have to start thinking straight cause once this contract expires in six months, I will have to go somewhere else, Im not staying with those couple, Amelia said as she dragged me on her hair along as she walked along. I was vexed when she mentioned that contract again but I swallowed it because I brought it up so I had to deal with it.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Soon I entered the car and drove off to the warehouse and Elliot met up with me. Mr. X we just found out that, the Red Kings now have a new leader! Elliot said and I frowned deeply. The Red Kings were my mortal enemy, i and the owner couldnt stand each other. We were always on each others tail, biting ourselves till one had to die. Its impossible for a mafia to change leader all of a sudden! I said as it wasnt urate Search deeper I thought that too and thats why I asked Gary to go do the research Elliot said. I nodded at that as I made my way into the warehouse that was filled with Guns and other weapons. It was a legal den unlike The Red Kings who were illegal. I was licensed to sell this stuff, and my status in the country topped that of the president. What about the silencers I asked for?? I asked as I took a small pistol from the table. Its being shipped here and itll arrive in two days Just then, George and Liam walked in. Hey, man! George said as he made his way in. I didnt ze at them as I slowly made my way to the chair there and sat. The battle between us and the Red King is so tough, George said as he also took a seat. They seem to havee back in full force after you uprooted them from this country, I think theyre back for revenge Liam analyzed and I snorted at that. They were attacking innocent citizens and they just happened to beat up my little brother in school, and who touches my brother, touches me I snarled. I still cant believe that this deep hatred resulted from the issue with your brother! George said with narrowed eyes Are you keeping something from us?? He asked and I just turned away. George stop probing, he can handle his shit, Liam said, he was maturedpared to George and sometimes I wonder how he handles his wife or rather. How his wife handles him. Where are your women?? I asked them as the fight was going on with the red kings, their wives might be in danger. Ive tightened the security in my house, shes in the house with our son, Liam said as he crossed his legs. My newly wedded wife is not the type to sit in one ce, so I ordered bodyguards to go with her to her office, George said and I nodded. What about your wife?? Liam asked instead. Yeahhh hows our sister inw doing?? George asked and I saw Liam red at him. I only chuckled Shes doing good, shes married to a don so she is well taken care of, I said Coolly and took out a cigarette from the box before I lit it and buffed out a mouthful of smoke from my mouth. That aside, I ordered my men to give them a warning by destroying their warehouse, now I think its going to be rough these uing days, I said slowly as he dragged from the cigarette. George and Liam nodded Lets go to the office, Liam said and I got up with them. I gave Elliot some instructions before leaving, Elliot was in charge of overseeing the activities of the warehouse as that was his office for torturing traitors and imposters. The three of us got into our various cars and drove off not knowing that a person was using a telescope to watch us from afar. The Alphas In a dark study room, a man with dark hair and green eyeballs was sitting on a chair while rxing his back One of his eyes was covered with a band, leaving just the other eye openedCntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org They were three men who were putting on a red suit, they had a big red logo on their suits The logo was a crown that was spilled with blood, it was imprinted on the suits The nerves! the man with one eye said and the remaining men on red, bowed their heads Sir theyre getting out of hand, lets attack once and for all Grey said as he lowered his head a bit I heard hes now married!

Grey asked The alphas are just too much Grey snorted I have my ns, Im going to bring Don X and all the Alphas down Knight smirked Theyll beg for their lives as they crawl on their knees, gnashing their teeth, Knight said with a wicked smile as if he was already seeing them do so Theres still these two Allies of The don of Alpha, Phoenix and Sly Grey said He was the right-hand man of Knight Cyrus, his loyal dog and best friend. At the mention of Phoenix, the knight immediately frowned. He is an ally of Alpha?? Knights frown deepened a bit as Grey nodded in contempt. And sly.. Knights upper lips rose in a cold smile. He was a bit bemused about the revtion but he didnt want to look surprised though. We shall see, Knight said slowly with narrowed eyes as he looked at the window with a smug face Grey was so impatient, that was what Knight always said and their mission was always postponed till today. he felt they were dying too much and he didnt like the fact that their mortal enemies were out there, roaming around the streets freely while they were in hiding like church rats. he wasnt satisfied, he wanted heads to Roll.

Amelia greeted as she made her way towards them Alexander stood at the side as his father greeted Amelia and his mother hugged her Sister, we finally get to meet Maverick greeted Amelia with a profound smile Hello, Im Amelia Amelia introduced and Maverick nodded I know your name already as Mom wouldnt stop talking about how beautiful you are, by the way, Im maverick, Alexanders younger brother Amelia smiled and Mrs. Ron, Galena, took Amelia with her and they headed towards the garden for a stroll, while having some women talk Alexander sat down with his father as they were having a serious discussion Son, how are you gonna tackle The Red Kings, I know youre well aware of how dangerous Knight could be, Lorraine Ron said as he looked at Alexander intently Alexander sat with his back on the chair and legs crossed in an imposing manner Im aware but you should also be aware that the Alphas are not to be toyed with, Alexander said with a cold and fierce gaze Thats right son, anyways, hows the girl?? Lorraine asked as he narrowed his eyes a little at Alexander Shes okay as you saw her earlier Alexander simply said Thats not what I meant! Lorraine said with a sigh Aye, I mean. hows your rtionship going with her, any progress on your feelings towards women! Mr. Lorraine asked in concern for that was one of the reasons he chose Amelia of all girls, she was willful, strong, and could withstand his son without surrendering so easily Alexander sighed before saying out loud Shes a nice girl, shes lovely Lorraine sighed deeply, and said I may not have been around but I have my eyes on you Alexander immediately turned chill as he tightened his knuckles We are fine he gritted out Ill get this straight, what happened with Hry has nothing to do with Amelia, Amelia is different from..

Just then, the door open, Amelia and Mrs Galena made their way into the living and saw the strange atmosphere Alexander had a frown on while Lorraine just sat quietly Galena could roughly guess what was happening Amelia walked close to Alexander, shed wanted to y along but it seemed this wasnt the right time, so she sat docilely by his side Okay, well get going now! Galena said to break the ice, they had intended to stay for a while but not anymore as it wasnt favorable Lorraine got up and Galena went to call Maverick from the game room and they walked out Amelia saw them off as they drove out of thepound, she made her way inside and saw Alexander sitting in that same spot She sighed as she made her way upstairs, giving Alexander some time to think about whatever he was thinking of It wasnt her business anyways She was already sick and tired of his attitude, they were always fighting and bickering Alexander remained in the living room with a dark expression, he should at least cut Amelia some ck She wasnt Hry, Amelia was different from Hry Hry was his high school crush until they graduated from college and they became official.

Amelia said resolutely as she sat there She couldnt take chances Mhm wait for a moment, George said as he moved toward the sleeping Alexander Amelia remained silent as she kept the phone close to her ear while thinking, Alexander hadnt been home for the past week, and now some people were calling her to go pick him up as he was drunk Who does that?? To her, Alexander wasnt been a responsible man Hey Biggie bro,e on wake up! George nudged Alexander on his shoulder but he was too tipsy to even open an eyebrow He had high tolerance for alcohol but when one has reached his limits, it then bes a problem and a different story Hmm let go! Alexander mumbled drowsily as George kept hitting his shoulder Come on man, your wife is on the line, George said impatiently as he looked at the phone to see if the call had ended Here talk to her! George said and ced the phone close to Alexander Alexander didnt even hear him as he wallowed in his grieve, he had tried to forget all about what happened but his father just chose to reopen his wounds George and Liam didnt notice but earlier when they were done with Lorenzo Go, He saw a couple walk into a private room in the bar They were in harmony as they held hands and strolled to the private boot in the bar. He was the one betrayed, he was the victim but he was the one sad He thought he had let go of her, he thought he had built up himself to be immune to her and never think of her But he guessed he wasnt strong enough When he saw them earlier, a suffocating feeling started building up in his chest as a lump formed in his throat, he looked at them till they disappeared into the crowd and got mixed with the other people He had the urge to go meet Hry and ask her about the whole incident but he resisted the urge to. One bitten, twice shy. He wouldnt make the same mistake as all women were vile. Amelia creased her forehead when Alexander didnt speak, she was beginning to doubt if this caller wasnt a foe George was already getting tired of this man, Liam frowned as he looked at the drunk guy He hadnt said a word since as he was always the calm type, he got up from his seat and walked towards Alexander and then Arghh Alexander groaned as he opened his eyes that was streamy and moist Liam had pricked his jaw, which he didnt like people touching Do you have a death wish??! Alexander said with a displeased face as he looked at Liam but Liam just shrugged and sat back down Come on, talk to the phone! Not in the mood! Alexander saidzily and used his forefinger to shift the phone away from his face as he rested his head back on the chair, he was now a bit somber but still drowsy Your wife is on the line George said and that made Alexander wrinkled his face as the thought hit him He had a wife now, he forgot Alexander sighed and gestured for George to put it close to his ear Hello Alexander said Coolly with a neutral expression Amelia gripped her phone tightly and held the helm of her pajama to control herself from rebuking him Oh its you, give it back to the other guy! Amelia saidzily and Alexander frowned She didnt even ask how he was Whatever! He re-adjusted his mood as he thought that it wasnt Amelias right to ask of him, she has nothing with me! Alexander signaled George to take the phone away from his ear Did you hear his voice now?? George asked to confirm since the environment was all noisy with loud music Yes, text me the location, Amelia said and ended the call So troublesome Liam nced at The already sleeping Alexander, his eyes were closed tightly as if suppressing something rather than sleeping Just then, Liam got a text from his wife, she was asking if he wasnting home that day { Ill be back in a few minutes babe} Liam texted back, he had to go home to meet his family Seems like Ill be leaving first! Liam said and got up Wait, what? Just for a few minutes, his wife will be here soon, you cant just abandon us! Georgeined as he looked at Liam Liam sighed as he sat back down reluctantly, he couldnt afford to leave his friends since Alexander was in a low state of mind right now Amelia hurried to her wardrobe and searched for a shirt but she suddenly gave up the idea The guys with her husband must be busy, if alexander was all by himself, she would have been slow to punish him but now he was with someone She had to go before they left him there. Besides, no matter what, he was her husband and boss so she had the responsibility of taking care of him With that thought, Amelia hurriedly left her bedroom with her pajamas on, she went downstairs and called the driverAll content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Here, were heading there now! Amelia gave her phone to the driver so he could know the location Seeing the man nodded in understanding, Amelia withdrew her hand holding out the phone and immediately rushed towards the car and opened the door to sit in The driver immediately got to work, it wasnt in his position to ask his bosss wife why she was heading to a barte at night Amelia sighed as she watched the scenario outside, her eyes caught a girl who was working aimlessly and carelessly without the care of the world She thought to herself that this girl was just like her Back then, she was always walking on the roadte into the night, letting the cold breeze blow her face and swipe her sorrows Sometimes she even wished not to return home but she still had to, to return to Luke Robertson, marion, and their daughter, Jolie And at the thought of her slutty Step sister, Amelia narrowed her eyes a bit, why isnt her family disturbing her like usual? Arriving at the bar, Amelia frowned as she inspected the bar from the car, it wasnt a ssic bar nor a shabby ce But it just doesnt fit for a ce Alexander would want to dwell in, and that gave Amelia a puzzle to fix Did hee here for something else?? Like booking a prostitute?? At that thought, Amelia immediately frowned deeply Goodbye Mafias She thought they had a contract that on no ount should any of them meet another person while still in the marriage. What the heck was Alexander doing now? When she thought of the other guy with Alexander, that called her earlier, she immediately had a bad impression of him He isnt responsible too. Nevertheless, she couldnt just seat in the car, she had to get that drunk ass back home. She took her phone and dialed thest number that called her in her call logs Im outside! Amelia said more coldly this time around as to her, this guy wasnt a good person. George was a little startled by her tone but then he thought that she must be angry that they had to call her in the middle of the night, toe to pick up her husband who wasnt good to her. George sighed at that before replying oh okay, just stay outside, wereing out With that said, Amelia directly ended the call. George didnt want to stress her any further so he told her to stay put outside. Maam arent weing down?? The twenty-five-year-old guy said as he looked at Amelia through the rear mirror but she just remained in her seat without the intention of getting off. The driver still doesnt know what theyre out here for but he remained calm as he stared ahead to the bustling and noisy bar. In a dark alleyway close to the bar, Grey positioned his sniper at the entrance waiting for Alex (Don X), Liam (Phoenix), And George (sly) toe out. He had a cold smile on, he was going to get revenge for his master tonight and nothing must go wrong. He didnt tell his master about what he intended to do cause he wanted to give Alexanders head as a surprise package to his master. Grey hated Alexander to the core and every cell of him, hated Alexander, to him, Alexander destroyed his life, and his life was the Red Kings gang. Grey used a hand telescope to look around when his eyes fell on the ck Maybach owned by Alexander, he couldnt forget this car, this was the car Alexander usually drove to the warehouse. He thought Alexander and the other two men came in one car to do the dirty deeds. He somehow found out from one of the guards he assigned to trace Alexander, that they had sessfully killed mr Lorenzo Go. Grey twisted his lips as he narrowed his eyes to inspect the car more Was there another person here?? Sure enough, Greys lips curled up as he smirked, There was a girl in the car who belonged to Alexander This must be his wife! Ha, such a lucky day for them He would be killing three bastards and one Beauty at a go He couldnt afford to make a mistake as his life would be in line, Alexander wasnt someone to toy with, and that he must admit. Amelia was so lost in thoughts as she sat there, Alexander had his own life to live but he was the one who brought the rules, he should also abide by them. Amelia pouted her small lips at the thought of how she was worried and worked herself up because of a cheating snake. Amelia immediately shook her head at that It wasnt cheating though, their marriage wasnt real anyways, its just some damn contract that could fetch her clean money. At the thought of the money, a part of Amelia immediately calmed down He could go sleep with a cow for all she cares. She snorted loudly which got the drivers attention Um sorry Amelia said to the driver, she didnt mean to snort so out and loudly at that. Alexanders issue was seriously giving her headaches so she decided to cut off those thoughts. Hes irresponsible, a liar, and a cheat, so get your head straight Amelia chided herself for those reasons. Just then, George came out with the tipsy Alexander, he and Liam were holding onto his arms so he wouldnt trip and fall I said Im good, let go! Alexander said slowly with a little bit of willpower to release their grip on him. Liam had never seen Alexander so out of control before, he was always looking strong and in control of his emotions. Seeing him like this, something big must have happened. You say youre okay?? You drank a whole eight bottles of vodka mixed with some random cocktails that I lost count of! George immediately rebuked him as they led him out Greys face widened and broke into a sinister smile as he saw his prey Ha- what a coincidence, meet in hell soon! Grey mumbled and ced his finger on the sniper, ready to shot any moment Come down from the car quickly, Mrs. Alexander Ron! Grey muttered as he looked ahead He must not miss this time Amelia saw the three mene out, she had thought they were two but suddenly they were three. The driver immediately understood that his madam hade to get his master. She was so filial towards their boss but his boss was being a asshole. The driver immediately gasped when he subconsciously called his master an asshole, if his master could read minds and found out he called him an asshole, his master that he knew, would have dug up his skull for him to feed on With that thought, a cold shiver went down the drivers spine and he immediately shivered. Amelia suck in a deep breath and came down from the car and walked toward the men George saw Ameliaing out, he immediately recognized her because he saw her at the wedding.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. He must say, she was a beauty indeed but seemed to have a fierceness within her as her eyes werent calm and pure eyes like other girls. Her eyes seem to dig up a persons soul as they were discerning and cold Just like, her husband but her fierceness paled inparison to that of Alexanders. She seems to have lived off life and has seen the ins and outs of the world. And that made her interesting! Mrs. Ron?? George asked to be sure and Amelia nodded a bit, not sparing George and Liam a second gaze as to her, they were improper people And a bad influence. But then again, they seem to be Alexanders friends and maybe subordinates since Alexanders ways werent too pure as he was a mafia Id take it from here, Amelia said but George shook his head Let us help you get him into the car! He said and Amelia nodded a bit and looked at Alexander who was frowning deeply with head down She felt something pricked her heart at the sight of him, he looked like an abandoned child At the alley, a cold grin remained on Greys face as he saw a perfect position to kill them all, he slowly but surely ced his forefinger on the trigger And.. Goodbye, Mafias! He’s So Mesmerizing Grey had a very sinister smile on his lips as he ced his firm fingers on the trigger and at that crucial moment, his phone vibrated and he was immediately in a panic and had a disgusted face on. Who was the fool that distracted him He looked ahead and saw Amelia headed back to the car and he gritted his teeth He knew he had to eliminate his ns for he had Lost the perfect time to kill them. At the thought of that, Grey had the urge to kill whoever was calling Damn it Grey gnashed his teeth, trying to suppress his fury, his eyes were bloodshot as he dipped his hands into his pant pocket He felt cold water poured on him when he saw the caller ID Boss K Without any exnation, it was Knight Calling Greys eyes immediately constricted and he was filled with panic Did his boss find out he was on a mission without his approval?? His fingers trembled slightly but he immediately adjusted his expression and cleared the tension in his voice so he could speak more audibly With that, he answered the call and ced it close to his ear Grey immediately retreat! Knights cold voice rang out from the other end Sure enough, he was aware! Grey made a tight fist that his knuckles became white and his nails dug into his palm and it immediately pierced his skin He had the urge to question why his boss was being slow with the n but he instead. gritted out a- Retreat! He sighed as the call ended, he looked far ahead and saw That the car Alexanders wife brought in was preparing to leave and Phoenix got into his car as well. Sly also did so. They got away today doesnt mean they could avoid his wrath some other time. Grey dialed a number and said expressionlessly to the person at the other end Come clean up everything at the location With that said, Grey quickly disappeared into the dark and blended with the darkness of the alleyway. He looked cold as he walked with deep and meaningful steps. Meanwhile, Knight was furious in his study room, the ss cup in his hand was held so tight that a crisp sound echoed, and the ss had a faint crake mark on it That Unreasonable fool! Knight said as he sat in the chair, so angry. He didnt want Alexander to have an easy death along with his Allies. That wont be enjoyable. And Grey took a risk, That might expose them too soon and Grey might be caught. Knight knew that Alexander doesnt let his guards down so easily, so he had a strong belief that Alexander had some secret men following him in the shadows, and if Grey had made a single mistake, he wouldnt be alive to tell the tale as he would be executed on the spot before he even tried to pull the trigger at Alexander. So it was better to stay put for the meantime until whenever he found it right and the auspicious date to do so. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> In the car, Amelia didnt even nce at Alexander who was resting his head on the seat She didnt know if he was sleeping or just resting so she kept quiet. She stared outside the car and watched the evening scenario as the buildings and trees moved quickly and faded away as the car advanced towards their home in Easternnd. She sighed deeply as she turned towards the man, the moonlight had rested on his face as he looked serene when asleep. If she didnt know better, she would have mistaken him for an angel that fell from the secondyers of heaven as he looked so mesmerizing. His longshes fell on his face as they covered his eyes, his facial expression was nd as he pouted his lips. Amelia couldnt take her eyes off him for a minute, hes so Gosh Amelia immediately shook her head several, she should probably keep her distance from this man, she wasnt safe with him. With that thought, Amelia hardened her heart with a tight frown When the car got to The Easternnd, Amelia immediately alighted from the car and the driver also came down in case His madam needed some help in carrying the drunk Alexander. He was right as Amelia beckoned for him to render some help, with the two of them, they sessfully carried Alexander to his room door but she was a bit hesitant to go in as rule number 6, she wasnt allowed into his room on no ount. She was a bit puzzled by that but rules were rules so she beckoned for one of the maids to quickly go prepare the guest room, but after a while, she canceled the idea as her shoulder was already aching due to the weight Alexander Exuded and the pressure. She couldnt hold on for too long and she saw that the driver whose shoulder was holding onto Alexanders other hand was a bit confused as they stood close to a room but werent making an attempt to enter. He didnt know that was his masters bedroom. Amelia felt pity for the young driver, though it was a part of his work but she didnt want to stress him too much as it was almost past midnight now Come, lets keep him here! Amelia said and gestured for the driver, she held onto Alexanders hand around her neck tightly and walked towards her room She used her free hand to open the door and the driver walked in first Along with Amelia. She was holding onto Alexanders right hand that was wrapped around her neck and the driver wrapped his left hand around his neck to support himAll content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Amelia slowly dropped Alexander on the bed before quickly turning to the driver and thanked him Its not a problem madam, its part of my work and besides, its master were talking about so I can do anything for him The driver was humble as he didnt want to take any credit for what he did today Amelia smiled at that before turning to Alexander who was sprung on the bed. The driver cleared his throat before excusing himself and walking out of the room, leaving Amelia to herself. She walked up to Alexander and took off his shoes and socks, she used a lot of efforts to push Alexander more into the bed before covering him with a quit She went to the room grabbed a pillow and a nket and walked out, heading downstairs Probably Regretting Alexander woke up the next morning with a splitting headache, his head was throbbing due to the hangover. He groaned as he opened his eyes to find himself in an unfamiliar room but with a second ze, he saw that it was Amelias bedroom. He had once slept here with her Arghh Alexander got up from the bed with difficulty, he shook his head multiple times to have a clear vision and it helped a bit. He sorted for his shoes and socks but didnt find them and he concluded that Amelia must have kept them. Just then, his eyes caught the bowl on the small table close by, there was a soup in the bowl and He had a rough idea that this was a hangover soup. He grumbled as he pretended as if he didnt see anything and got ready to leave the bed when the door suddenly opened and Amelia came in with a solemn face. He raised a brow at her and she walked towards him Drink the soup! Amelia ordered him the first moment she walked towards him, she was so displeased. A mafia shouldnt let his guards down, how could he possibly have the time to get drunk when some people with no family name were after their lives??.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. He was irresponsible Alexander knew what she was thinking and why she had that displeased expression on, a small smile formed on the corner of his lips as he thought that she was worried about his welfare, but then again he refused to be ordered around by a mere woman, he couldnt do as she pleases. With that, His expression deepened in a few degrees as his eyes showed a cold glint to suppress her but to his surprise, Amelia maintained a strong and direct gaze with him. Both eyes throwing thunders at each other, and none of them wanted to back down. Amelia had passed through serious training in the Military camp so she wouldnt cower in front of this damn mafia. He should be afraid of her and not the other way around. With that thought in mind, Amelia stared really hard with teeth joined together so tightly that it might break at any moment. A surprised look shed past Alexanders eyes but it immediately disappeared, Just then it was reced with a smirk heh heh. Alexander chuckled as he averted his gaze from her as he adjusted his sitting position Interesting! He muttered softly with dim eyes Mr. Ron, Drink the soup, I have something else to do! Amelia said expressionlessly as she suppressed her fury with a lump of saliva, she rested her gaze on the bowl of hangover soup on the table before looking at Alexander. She felt something was off as she looked at the nonchnt Alexander and she gazed at him deeply. What? Amelia asked with a displeased expression Alexander didnt feel the need to answer her as he rested his head on the headboard of the bed. What did you do to mest night?? Alexander narrowed his eyes at her a bit as he seized her up. What-what?? Do you think everyone is a pervert like you? Amelia snorted through her nose You arent even worth doing anything with! She added as she red at Alexander Ooh?? I thought as much but you cant deny the fact that you almost took advantage of mest night! Alexander said slowly andzily . Amelia was rendered speechless for a while before she retorted How?? I didnt do anything to you! I was a bit drunk but I can feel you touch me yesterday, when you helped me out of the car, your hand brushed past my small boy! Alexander said as a matter of fact Though he was drunk he remembered when they were in the car, just that he was a bit drowsy, but still somber a little. And not just that, you stripped me! Alexander added as he looked at the flushed Amelia That-that was-was me helping you, how was I to know and besides, I stripped you off your shirt because it was stained! Amelia defended herself when she finally found her voice. You didnt feel the need to take me to my room?? Alexander asked You clearly stated in the contract that I shouldnt be found anywhere close to your room, talk more of entering! Amelia said solemnly as she fiddled with her pajama Alexander looked a bit confused until he finally remembered that he had added that to the contract. Alexander seized Amelia up and down as he felt a bit guilty and thankful that she helped him out yesterday. Well, forget here! Amelia took the hangover soup from the bowl and brought it close to Alexander Drink it and it will help you get rid of the hangover Amelia advised but Alexander seemed reluctant to drink it Alexander turn his face away, seemingly looking like a child whose mother told him to drink a bitter concoction. Amelia felt a bit confused as to why he didnt want to drink the soup, cmon dont waste time, drink up! Amelia persuaded but Alexander pouted his lips as he frowned deeply. I dont want to! Alexander said softly as he frowned deeply, still sitting on the bed. Cmon drink it up, I dont want you dying from the throbbing headache before you pay me this months sry! Amelia said, referring to the contract, it was about time to pay that months sry ording to the contract. Alexanders eyes immediately turned frost So this was the reason she cared about him, he subconsciously mocked himself, and he thought she cared about his welfare. Take it out, I dont want to drink anything from you! Alexander said and Amelia was startled by his cold expression, he looked cute for a while but now, he suddenly looked cold. Amelia sighed and ced the bowl on the table Suit yourself then she said and walked out, feeling confused as to why he was like that. She doesnt care anyway, who would want to care about a mafia, shes probably regretting why shes with him. Those thoughts filled Alexanders mind as he grabbed his head and the headache persisted. Whats my deal about it, I dont care too He reassured himself that he wasnt affected by her, and he made a mental note to transfer her the money. His gaze fell on the soup again and he groaned Ughh He hates medicines especially Concoction of this sort. Ash Moon Amelia didnt pay Alexander any heed as she went downstairs and found the panther lying on the floor of the living room. The panther seems to have gotten fond of her since the days Its master abandoned them for a long time. Amelia snorted at the thought of Alexander again, so irritating! Meanwhile, Alexander got up from the bed and was ready to walk out but that sickening feeling kicked in again and he had no choice but to grumble and walk towards the bowl of hangover soup. He had only heard and seen people take it but he hadnt tasted it before. He took it close to his mouth and winced his nose in utter disgust, he didnt like taking medicine but when he thought of how Amelia had said that it could help him a lot, he hesitated before closing his eyes and drank a mouthful but surprisingly it wasnt too bitter. He gazed at the bowl again and drank the remaining Soup left. Hmm hah Alexander sighed and walked out of the room He walked straight to his room and just then, his phone rang Liam was the one calling Hello, Alexander said as he made his way to his bathroom to brush his tooth Grey Scorch was after our lives yesterday, were you aware?? Liam asked directly I know, My men were in the area at that time, though they didnt inform me but they had already prepared everything, he wouldnt have had the chance to even pull the trigger! Alexander said as he stood opposite the mirror on the wall of his bathroom that was covered in silver tiles. Spare me that, how are you so sure he wouldnt have blown up our brains?? Liam asked with raised brows from the other side And dont get it wrong that Im doubting your skills or sort! He was targeting us but my men were targeting him from the buildings close by, they watched him closely, Alexander said For some reason he didnt do anything! Alexander added with a frown Maybe he hade after us without Knights approval Liam reasoned Maybe, Alexander said again as he narrowed his eyes at the mention of knight. Hes been calmtely Alexanders expression was so cold like an underwater that was kept in a fridge, his two brows joined in a tight frown. Hes too cunning, he surely has something up his sleeves but too bad for him, were the alphas Liam bragged as he chuckled a little Alexanders lip formed into a cold arc as he had a charming and yet chilly smirk on Too bad for him! They talked about some business-rted matters before he ended the call. He dropped the phone to brush his teeth, when he was done, he walked out, and then again, another call came in He frowned as he brought the phone to check who the caller was but his frown softened a bit when he saw the caller. Hey Xender! A sweet and cute voice came from the other side Ash whats up Alexander said without much expression Guess what?? Ash said from the other side with a giggle but still had an air of nobility. Alexander raised a brow, totally not in the mood for guessing Get straight to the point! Ashs expression immediately dropped a bit with Alexanders statement but she waved it off as she was already used to his sarcastic and nonapproachable persona. At least she held a candle in his heart, she was his friend from college and colleague at work back when Alexander was still in America. They only separated when he came to Europe to Expand his business so she was left in the subdivisionpany in America. She secretly has been crushing on him since Their college days but Alexander was too cold and gave her some restrictions so she hadnt had the chance to be in a rtionship with him. But she still had hope because Alexander hadnt been in a rtionship after his previous rtionship with Hry, nor had he been involved in a rtionship scandal which was a great hope for her. She still had a chance to win his favor I just got Transferred, from now on, Ill be working in The Rons Headquarters and well be partners again!! Ashughed from the other side. Oh, congrattions, your hard work paid off Alexander praised Ash as she was a devoted worker. Ash smiled as her heart bloomed with red and pink roses, a word of praise from Alexander could make her go crazy and keep smiling like a fool all day long. She was the only female amongst their group of friends, so she had a greater chance of dating Alexander Ron. But she couldnt act like an uncultured and not well-bred up girl, so she immediately adjusted her emotions and said calmly this time around Ill being tomorrow morning by 10 am, youre gonna pick me up from the airport right?? Ash asked with high hopes Ill send a driver over, alexander said as he sat on a chair with his head resting on it.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. I dont want that, you know its my first time being to Europe, I dont know much about the areas and I also might need your help to book a hotel, and I dont feelfortable staying with a stranger, Ash said with a coquettish tone, trying her best to convince and influence his decision please Alexander sighed and felt his forehead Okay, i understand! Alexander couldnt help but agree to her request, she had being by his side since college, ash and Hry were once best of friends but he had taken a fancy for Hry instead. Even after the breakup with Hry, Ash was still willing to stick to him which he appreciated. When he first became CEO of his familys business, Ash was beside him and she knew the ups and downs of the business, she was also aware of his second identity but she wasnt frightened away. She had been there for him over the years, and he had grown to see how proficient she was and howpetitive andpetent she was. And he admired her strong will. And you also have to treat me to lunch! Ash added, still waiting for his approval, alexander was so difficult to deal with so she had to always be conscious of how she dealt with him, he sometimes had mood swings and turned down her requests. That will be a wee gift anyway so, its a yes Alexander said cooly without many expressions, he didnt wait for her reply and directly ended the call The colors in Ashs face drained as she stared down at her phone. He hadnt changed a bit. But that was good, he wouldnt be approachable or essible to any woman, she would be the only girl close to him until he realized that she was the right one for him. With those thoughts, colors immediately rushed to her face again as she grinned like a mad woman. Survival Instinct Ash Laughed victoriously as she went to pack her bags, soon, Alexander would be hers. She was determined this time to get Alex, she wouldnt back down, she had once gave way to Hry, but fortunately, Hry and Alexander broke up, thats to say, she was the destined one. She was meant for Alexander. Ash hummed as she packed her bags for tomorrows journey to Europe, she would once again be Alexanders partner in the office. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Easternnd, Europe. Alexander sighed as he took a shower and woke up a casual wear, thepany just signed a contract with the government for the production of AI technology. The next few days would be exhausting, So he took the time to rest when he still had the chance. He walked out of his bedroom and made his way to the dining, as Amelia had said, the hangover was slowly wading off , and he was slightlyfortable. Amelia raised her brows at Alexander, as their gazes locked, Amelia quickly withdrew her eyes and Alexander felt a gush of guilt blow on his face. He cleared his throat and made his way to the dining room, Amelia buried her head in her food as she hurriedly ate Eat slowly else you might choke on the food, Alexander said with a frown and she slowed down a bit. He sighed, and self-conflicted for a while before gritting out a-Im sorry about earlier! Its nothing, I mean.. forget about it, Amelia said with a nd expression, not wanting to deal with his problem Come with meter, Alex said and Amelia didnt refute him and just hummed in agreement. After the meal, Alexander waited for Amelia to go get dressed and she came out wearing a high waist trousers and a top. Where are we heading to? Amelia asked as they walked side by side with each other, heading out of the house. Alexander didnt answer her and they made their way to the garage, Amelia didnt persist and justplied with him. Soon, their car drove out of the garage and left Easternnd for the subway. Amelia sat tightly as she looked ahead Were going to the warehouse Alexander said after a while as he focused on his driving, his gaze on the road. Amelia was a bit confused about what he meant and she looked up to his face for answers. A shallow smile crept to his face My warehouse where I store weapons, are you ufortable?? Amelia immediately understood, he was taking her to his second office so he was taking her there. Do you trust me to take me there?? Amelia asked as she gazed at him intently, a warm feeling exploded in her heart. But she immediately shook her head subconsciously to clear off the thought. Alexander couldnt bring himself to tell her his real thoughts and he said instead I didnt say I trust you, Im just taking you there to see something new, and besides my father is secretly monitoring us so we have to give him the impression that we are a loving couple he exined but felt his throat tightened Oh-so that was the reason. For some reasons, Amelias chest felt heavy, she was thinking too much, it was for his father anyway. Cmon Ameliae out of it! She chided herself but that didnt brighten her mood as her mood soured. Alexander noticed that she was suddenly quiet and didnt think much of it. The whole ride was silent as they sat there, Amelia was anxious to get out of the car. Her mood was terrible but what was she expecting? She snorted at herself, while self-mocking her naivety and stupidity. Soon, the car stopped in front of a hard iron gate, the fence was unusually high. She couldnt even see any building as the fence was too high to see what was inside.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Alexander got out of the car and one of his subordinates walked toward him and bowed respectfully Sir X the man was respectful towards Alexander Miss he gestured towards Amelia who waspletely lost in her thoughts. The subordinate drove Alexanders car to the garage area. Lets go in! Alexander said as he put on that cold expression of his as emitted a deadly aura, that aura made him seem so intimidating and above the whole world. Amelia had a neutral expression but her eyes were slightly cold, she wasnt a young Miss who was concerned about her social image or simple etiquette, she loved to live her life her way. She slightly matched Alexanders temperament as they both had an expression that made people kowtow to them and feel suffocated. Alexander took his time to show Amelia around before he went to the secret meeting room to address his workers, Amelia was disinclined to go in so she just walked towards the high storage where guns were kept, some were hung on the wall She looked at them intently with keen interest, she had some experience and knows about guns since she once lived in a military camp, she was thought properly so when she saw any gun, she knew which was the real deal. These guns were all top notch weapons, some of the guns were made that very year but surprisingly, Alexander had tons of it in his warehouse. Power was something to be reckoned on, it could make the devil bow. She smirked when her eyes caught a sharp and small dagger on the ck and iron table close by, she stretched her hand to take and inspect it when a voice came from her back, she was a bit startled and her first instinct was to retaliate, she immediately turns and strike her palm to the person but it was caught in mid-air by a strong hand. She had used enough power on that palm strike so when it was abruptly caught, her hands felt as if it was electrocuted. Her eyes widened when she saw the cold eyes staring straight at her and she immediately flushed red in embarrassment Alex-umm I didnt hear youe in, sorry, Amelia said You have a strong survival instinct, not bad, you seem to be always on guard, Alexander said and walked to her side He noticed her flushed face and felt that something was off Are you okay?? Hmm-yeah-yeah, Im good, she said and slowly massaged her right arm that she had used to hit towards Alexander earlier, that action didnt go unnoticed by him as he furrowed his brows and took her right hand to check. Our Marriage Isn’t Based On Love He had felt the strong energy from the nned strike earlier as it carried a strong air along with it. No, Im good Shut up Alexander immediately said softly with a frown, he took her arm and massaged it a bit She felt a sense of longing and care when she stared at the focused Man who was pressing down on her hand. She immediately blinked thrice to clear off those dirty thoughts. Is this what you call okay?? Your face is so pale and your arm seems so red Alexander said with gritted teeth and Amelia only poured her small lips like a child who was being scolded. Thank you, its better now, just a moment of impulse that I applied too much strength Amelia exined and withdrew her hand from Alexanders grip You have to be careful next time, you have to control your strength Alexander said as he stared at her, for a moment his being was shaken to see her face so pale. He couldnt quite ce his fingers on what it was. So He immediately despaired those thoughts. I understand, Amelia said softly and bit on her lower lips before gazing at the dagger again Alexander followed her line of sight and he was a bit amused and as well frowning. You like the dagger?? He asked and she was silent for a while but he could still see her sparking eyes. He chuckled as he looked at Amelia more precisely, girls of her age didnt take a fancy to stuff like this, they preferred flowers, jewelry and some girly stuff. Hry was a bit coolheaded but she love materialistic stuff, she love to have her hair styled every Friday and loves to be surprised with flowers but Amelia?? She wanted to have a dagger. Alexanders face flushed a bit when he thought of how he wasparing Hry with Amelia but he had to admit that, Amelia was an interesting character. You must be an idiot then, Alexander said calmly You- Amelia red hard at Alexander for a while before grunting I dont want it anymore, its yours anyways she said with a fuming expression, her lips were pouted that she looked like a small cute kitten. She was always cold on the surface and strong-headed but inside, she was a cute woman. Alexander had a small smile on his face that he didnt realize was there, he slowly pitched her cheeks as she looked adorable Cmon if you want it, then its yours, Alexander said hoarsely as if trying tofort her, he didnt know why he suddenly felt the need to cate her. I lost interest, are you done with work already?? Seeing that Amelia dropped the matter, he didnt continue it further and told her the recent happenings Knight, the leader of Red Kings are slowly making themselves known and they attacked the ship, that was containing the goods I bought from Singapore, Alexander said with frosty eyes. What do you intend to do now?? Amelia asked as she was a bit worried for him, living as a mafia wasnt at all easy. We cant keep going on like this.. Alexander said with a shallow face Amelia immediately understood himYes, you guys cant keep biting on each others tail, one has toe out victorious for this to end, its a life and death matter now Amelia analyzed and Alexander nodded his head at her We have to face it head but they have been hidingtely! Alexander said with a frown and then his face loosened up a bit as he thought of something Amelia and Alexander locked gazes in unison, they didnt need to say the words, they had a mutual understanding. Force them out Push them to the extreme, Amelia and Alexander said simultaneously as they looked at each other For some reason, Alexander always see himself whenever he looked at Amelia, she was always in line with his thoughts. They think alike. Amelia smiled a bit as she gazed at Alexander but how are we going to go about it?? Amelia asked and Alexanders ear caught something in her sentence. We?? Alexander asked feeling incredulous. Yes, we.. Amelia answered resolutely as she made a tight fist Even if this is just a contract and our marriage isnt based on love, we still have that title tagged to our names, were a husband and wife, so were sticking together on this Amelia said as she felt an unknown burst of energy overflow inside her, she suddenly felt the need to help him with his issues. Alexander was a bit stunned, this was the first time he had felt that someone wanted to protect him. He was reluctant for a while No, let me deal with it, I dont want you tied up in my messN?velDrama.Org (C) content. He knew what Knight was capable of, a person who was destroyed and disbanded was the most dangerous. Knight hade in full force This time around and he couldnt afford to put Amelias life on the line. The very day I got married to you, was the day I got tied up in your world and mess, as you call it, even if I was to back out, I would still be in danger and you wanna know why?? Amelia said with gnashing teeth Alexander didnt ask for a why cause he was well aware, she was his wife, whether they were in love or not, they would stille for her life. Now you see that its of no use now, were entangled in this so let me be of a little help if I can, Amelia said and Alexanders cold eyes immediately melted as an unknown expression shed across his eyes that he didnt notice. Then be careful, you choose this Alexander said, trying to sound neutral but his voice came out in a whisper instead. Amelia sighed as she looked at him When you were at the meeting earlier, my dad had called Amelia said and Alexander looked at her in curiosity. He just said a few words about meing to the house tomorrow for something important Amelia exined shortly Did you agree?? Alexander asked as he was displeased with her shameless parents. He didnt even give me the chance to confirm or disagree before he hung up on me, Amelia said with tight face. Will you be going then?? Alexander asked instead as he gazed at her cold expression, her brows joined together and he couldnt help but use his thumb to straighten out the joined brows. Amelia didnt think much of his gesture and nodded her head I have to go see what hes up to! Dagger Alexander hummed while nodding his head, though Amelia had nothing to do with them again but they were still her parents. I was thinking, why dont you be my assistant in the meantime?? Alexander proposed all of a sudden making Amelias eyes wide in shock. What about your assistant?? Whats going to happen to him or perhaps her? Amelia asked feeling lost with the new arrangement. I assigned him to a different task elsewhere, as its getting bloody these days and the matter with The Red Kings, I dont want him involved so he should remain unaware of this happenings! Alexander said as a matter of fact and Amelia nodded her head in agreement but then Again, she frowned As your assistant, he should be aware of your second,-ahem identity right?? An assistant was a persons right hand so he should be well aware and informed about Alexanders deals. I separate Rons business from the underworld, he doesnt know and wont ever know You dont trust him enough? That was the only reason Amelia could think of. You ask too many questions, well C I hope you know that Im not that dumb to employ someone I dont trust to myself as an assistant, Alexander said neutrally as he folded both arms on his chest area. That leisure posture made him charming as his hair was clean and arranged without any stride off the length. Amelia didnt say a word and silently agreed with him. He always has a reason for whatever he does. Come, lets get going already, tomorrow Ill take you to the office Alexander urged her to go out. How could Amelia not know that he wanted to employ her as his assistant to protect her, if she was in his sight always, she would be safe. Amelia looked up at the man who was walking ahead of her with a straight back, she didnt know why he was always doing things for her when she thought of it, he was a nice guy not what people portrayed him to as the devil himself. But why?? That question was left unanswered but then again; Hes probably doing it for his fathers sake and he feels responsible for her since she was in a contract with him, so he has no choice but to protect her until the contract expires Hes just feeling responsible for her, its not out of concern. he doesnt have a choice. That must be it, Amelia found answers by herself but it was indeed saddening Argh Amelia grumbled as she almost hit herself toe out of the stupid fantasy she was having. Alexander turned towards the girl at the back he saw that she was all red as she kept mumbling to herself. He had heard her groaning sound so he turned to her but she was too lost in lecturing herself for some reasons unknown to him. Amelia, get your head straight. Amelia kept muttering that to herself like a mantra She didnt even notice that Alexander had stopped in his movement and she was walking towards him. Alexander stood in ce and watched the girl who had her head facing the ground while muttering inaudible speech to herself. I cant be like this, he isnt at all nice He-ouch Amelia hissed in pain as she held her forehead and looked up straight to see what she had bumped into. Alexander didnt say anything as he stared at the littlemb of a girl, she wasnt this stupid before, whats gotten into her?? Amelias face reddened again when she saw his questioning gaze Im sorry, I didnt know you stopped walking! That was what she had intended to say but that didnte out of her mouth as it was just a thought, she felt vexed that he was aware that she was gonna bump into him but he didnt stop her Why did you stop walking?? My head hurts now, how could you be so mean? Amelia said with red eyes and that made Alexander more confused, Amelia felt frustrated at the guy giving her a quizzical look. Forget about it. Amelia hissed in fury and walked out. Alexander didnt even know what he did as he just shrugged and walked behind her. Damn man! Here I was, thinking he is a little nice, nice my ass! Amelia snorted coldly and made her way out towards the big gate. Hey wait up Alexander called out Amelia sighed and swallowed a lump of Silva in her throat, she isnt supposed to feel this way, but wait.. what way was she feeling?? She didnt even know but all she knew was she should get her thoughts together and avoid being too entangled with Alexander. Yes, that was what she should do! With that reassurance, she immediately wore her neutral and natural expression, looking more business like at the moment, and replied : What is it?? She answered more calmly this time. You got it right, this is how she should be like, their rtionship was that of an employee and employer. Wait a moment, let me call the guy who went to park my car earlier Alex said and dug his hand into his pocket brought out his model phone and dialed a series of numbers, not long, the call went through Seventeen, get the car over! He said expressionlessly and soon hung up after that statement, turning to the calm-looking Amelia , he said: Hell be here soon! Alexander said and stared at her for a while but she just nodded and didnt spare him another ze again. He was a bit displeased but he didnt linger in that feeling and waited for seventeen to bring the car over. Soon enough, seventeen arrived and handed the Keys over to Alexander respectfully. Amelia immediately went to the back seat and Alexanders expression immediately dropped You didnt tell me Ive suddenly be your driver Alexanders tone was full of sarcasm as he entered the drivers seat. Amelia didnt say a word and entered the passengers seat. Those men I saw with you the night before. Amelia didntplete her statement as Alexander cut her off Theyre my friends from childhood and my Allies, He said indifferently and Amelia didnt say anything again. Alexander turned to her and saw her looking outside, he return his gaze to the road before saying all of a sudden: Take it..All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Amelia turned her head towards his direction and saw that he was handing her that same dagger she had taken a liking to earlier, she had thought he wouldnt give it to her. You dont have to thank me, I dont like it whenever you thank me, so I dont want to hear it! Goodies I can just take it back since you dont want Alexander teased and Amelia immediately took it from his hand with a broad smile on her small face. Thanks Amelia said softly while looking at the dagger, raising the dagger, she added For this- Alexander gazed at her Thought I told you I dont like it when you thank me?? Amelia nodded knowingly as she pushed her lips forward in surrender. The dagger was particrly eye-catching, it was Silva-looking with smooth edge, On the dagger was faintly written: Alpha It seems to be your Gangs Heirloom,Amelia said small as she observed the dagger Be careful with that, its really sharp, I had a cksmith make it You didnt import this? Amelia asked incredulously Nah. Alexander hummed and Amelia just nodded and kept the dagger to her side, the very first time she saw the dagger, she loved it. Maybe its because shes more skilled in using daggers to fight. The Remaining drive was in silence as the duo were upied with their thoughts. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A crashing sound could be heard in the living room, for some reason, the air was depressing and moody. Jolie stood in the middle of the living room in fury as her nose was all red. Luke Robertson stared at his aggrieved daughter and his mood immediately deteriorated Watch your tongue, seems like Ive spoilt you rotten that you now talk to me in that tone Luke wasnt having it at all as he sat in the chair. Jolie looked at her mother for help and Marion immediately understood as she turned towards her husband, she wore a sympathetic look as she held onto Lukes arm to calm him. Dont scold her too much, shes just a child that doesnt know what it means to be an adult, she isnt sensitive yet Marion found excuses for Jolie Mom, Im not a child anymore, how could father do this to me?? It could have been me! Me..! Jolie stretched out as her eyes reddened in anger. Its all That swines fault, she snatched her position. Get one thing straight, we had to sell her because of you if you didnt fool around with your ssmates and ended up getting beaten and battered by your enemies.. Ahem, and I havent asked you yet how you suddenly had enemies at your age! Luke had always loved and cherished Jolie more than Amelia who was birthed by his first wife. Jolie was more docile and obedient, a beauty who had many socialworks. But he couldnt stand her nagging at him, he was an egoistic man who didnt like to get lectured, especially by his kid. Dont talk such nonsense! Marion chided Jolie and Jolie stomped her feet on the ground angrily. Seeing Jolies pained expression, Luke couldnt bear to scold her anymore, she was his favorite. He took a deep breath and said to her We sold her for you, you should be happy we sessfully got rid of the thorn in our flesh Dad you could have possibly sold her to some random drunk and drug addicts, some fat belly pig among men but. why Alexander Ron?? Hes a god for crying out loud, hes every womans dream, I like him Dad, his very being and money!Jolie said and Luke frowned immediately Dont talk nonsense, hes dangerous, hes a mafia and not so good, Amelia wont be treated well if she is with him, why suffer yourself?? He is.. Death itself Luke shuddered when he said thest statement, Alexander always gave him the creeps. Alexander always emitted a deadly aura around him. Well. I cant continue this matter! Luke got up from the chair and walked out of the living room as he thought of Alexanders usual cold eyes that were so prating. Mom!! Jolie stomped her feet on the ground more harshly as she walked towards Marion in a spoilt manner. She took a seat close to Marion. Mom, we have to do something, look at me, dont I deserve to be a Ron?? Even if hes a mafia, I dont care, Ill still get to be the mistress of the family, with servants at my beck and call, Ill be on top of the world.. Jolie fantasized as she had dreamy eyes on. Marion frowned bit by bit as she thought of these possibilities, she couldnt miss the chance of being Rons Inw. But you wont get to be loved by him! Dont worry about that mom, love cer on, as we get to know each other, he will gradually start loving me, and if perhaps.. Jolie trailed off If perhaps he doesnt love me by then, I dont care, all I know is the money.. and of course, the fame Jolie showed a bright smile as she thought of how all her friends would start flocking over her. I never thought of this, I cant let that little witch get all these, we have to do something! Marion said as she felt regretful for not having her husband sell Amelia to some foolish and irresponsible men. But at that moment of anxiety, when they got that call that Jolie had been hospitalized, and That offer came in, a shareholder of the Robertson Group was discussing the news. The shareholder happened to attend a birthday banquet by Mrs. Ron, and that was when Mr. Lorraine Ron announced his search for a daughter-inw for his son. Lots of directors brought their daughter to Mrs. Ron and introduced them, they only tried their luck by dialing the number Mr. Ron had shared with the attendees at the banquet, but luckily for them, Amelia was chosen. She didnt think of the possibilities and all the goodies the marriage alliance could bring to Amelia, at that moment of dilemma, her only thoughts were the source of funds to treat Her darling daughter, Jolie. To think of it now, it was weird cause other members of the high ss were present at the banquet, so their daughters had to be some stunning young socialites with good characters, charismatic and filled with the correct etiquette. They surpassed Amelia with everything as Amelia was the always loud girl, not well bred, and doesnt have a social ss. So scheming and problematic. We have to do something mum, we must wreak havoc in Amelias home and Alexander would have seen her real colors, shes so sly and full of schemes, Jolie said as she narrowed her eyes to imagine Amelias face when their plots trulye to y.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Shell be so regretful Sunbathing Dont worry, I have a n, your dad had already called her over toe to the house tomorrow, well get a good chance to execute our ns Marion said decisively tofort her daughter. What are you thinking Mom?? Jolie asked her mom who seemed lost in thoughts. Dont worry, leave it to me, youll get to see your mom in action tomorrow, and get a taste of my masterpiece Marion looked so sly as she looked far as if imagining the scenes. Jolie nodded in satisfaction and her mood lightened up a bit. Thanks, mom Jolie muttered as she cleared her throat Ill be heading to ss now, you know the socialitepetition of this year is dragging near, we have a tea ss today Dont worry dear, Go and do your stuff, you must win this years most social and beautiful woman, Ill take you to a spa in two days to help you rx your muscles a bit, youve been working hard Marion promised as she looked at her daughter, determined for her to progress and surpass the daughter of her archenemy, Amelia. Amelias mother had always made her feel inferior when she was still alive, she couldnt beat her at anything but this time, what she couldnt do, her daughter would help her do it. No Mom, lets go to the beauty store that was recently opened close to the citys mall, lot of socialite go there for skin care, I want to look my best these days in case I identally bump into Alexander, you know. Jolies face had a tinge of red on her cheek as she thought of Alexander. You dont have to be so coquettish because of a man, men dont like women who act all clingy Behave yourself and prove to him that you are a nobledy from a decent background, and full of charisma Marion reminded Jolie seriously and Jolie only snorted Cmon mom, thats old fashioned, men of your time do that, not now. Jolie joined her both hands together, looking drilled as she said slowly Men of my time, Like gentle and cute women, who wants to be embraced and pampered by men, that way the men feel superior, isnt that what all men want?? Jolie giggled as she directed her question to her mom but Marion couldnt refute her as she stared at her daughter who seems to have lost a screw from her medu oblongata. Seriously??. Marion could only utter this as she had nothing more to say. Yeah, seriously Jolie shrugged after saying those words andughed out of the room Im off now Marion sighed as she watched Jolie leave through the door, she couldnt let Amelia enjoy being Mrs. Ron. Let her enjoy it while itsts, as for tomorrow, she wont be qualified as she would leave the marriage herself. If she had her husband to tell Amelia off from the marriage, it will seem as if they broke the agreement they had with mr Ron, Amelia was sold with good money. After discharging and paying for Jolies medical bills, they had spare money left that they enjoyed for a while until it waspletely exhausted. So they couldnt talk Amelia out of the marriage instead they could use another means of making her run from the marriage herself. Just you watch out Amelia.! Time seemed to roll by faster as soon it was dawn, Amelia slowly opened her eyes to adjust her sight to the light, the sun prated the room through the windows, it was a warm morning sun. Good for sunbathing! Amelia thought but she immediately cancelled her wishful thinking as she ran to the bathroom to brush her teeth. Today was the day shed get to be introduced in Rons Headquarter as Alexanders new assistant. She couldnt bete on her first day, else she wont leave a good impression on the workers there. Not that she wanted to impress anyone but to fulfill all righteousness, so yeah. Soon she was done, she got dressed into a ck, side-cut skirt that was below her knees, with a white top and a small ck coat to match. She tied her hair into a ponytail and she looked more professional and business-minded. She applied a little bit of concealer on her eyes to cover up the dark cycles under her eyes. She didnt go to bed early, yesterday as she was busy doing some digging and researching on Rons headquarter and their working techniques. Not that she was going there to work as a minor worker as she would be staying close to Alexander more but it was better to be safe than sorry. She didnt want to look like a JJC there. She walked out of the bedroom after getting dressed, she walked downstairs when a swift and tender aroma hit her nostrils almost blocking her six senses, the aroma was so strong and it already told how sumptuous the meal was going to be. The head maid, Mrs. Gale Was a talent to reckon on, she was a good cook. Good morning madam Mrs Gale greeted respectfully with a small smile. Good morning Mrs Gale, you can call me Amy I dont feelfortable when you call me madam, it makes me feel twice my age Amelia said leisurely Master wouldnt agree to that- Mrs Gale said with a smile. She had always thought that Amelia was a nice girl but now, her love and respect for Amelia had gradually increased as Amelia gave off good andfortable vibes, though she could be quite unapproachable sometimes. I insist.. Amelia said that she was so fed up with servants calling her Madam as if it was glued to their tongues, no matter what she told them, they always called her Madam which makes her feel aged. Okay then Amy Mrs Gale immediately looked upstairs to see if the master wasing down. You must be famished now, Ill go serve breakfast on the table now, Mrs Gale said and immediately made her way to the kitchen to bring in the trays of food. At that moment, Alexander walked in, he was properly dressed in a ck torso and a grey customized coat. Good morning Amelia couldnt help but greet him first. Hmm Alexander hummed not removing his eyes from his phone, just then, Mrs. Gale brought in the tray of food to serve them. They both ate in silence as Alexander seem intrigued by his phone. After breakfast, they both walked outside to get into the car, alexander reminded Amelia of some things to keep in mind. And she just hummed at his every statement as a sign that she understood what he was saying Thats all for now. Alexander opened the passengers door for Amelia and she said thank you and got in.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Alexander was about to ignite the car when he got a message from Ash. {I just got off the ne now,e pick me up Xander, please dont take long} Jetlag Amelia looked in Alexanders direction when she noticed that he hadnt started the car. Changed your mind?? We arent going to the office anymore?? Amelia asked as she tried to sneak a nce at his phone to see the message. She only saw the words, Ash as the sender but she couldnt see the content of the message. She looked at Alexanders face again, Alexander remained quiet and then, he got out of the car. Amelia also got down and looked at Alexander in confusion, she had prepared for today but it seemed that their trip wouldnt beplete that morning with the look of things. Alexander didnt look in Amelias direction as he beckoned to one of the guards and instructed him what to do.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Soon the guard walked away to go do what Alexander had instructed him. Whats going on?? Can you say something?? Amelia was already displeased and feeling unpleasant with his silence. Alexander turned to her side, he looked at her deeply, for a minute, he was struggling with what to do but he immediately shook off that thought when he remembered that they were nothing to each other, no need to exin himself. I have somewhere to be, Ill have my driver drive you to the office first, well meet there, Alexander said emotionlessly with both hands in his pocket. Oh okay, Amelia saidzily and she didnt ask further, as long as she got to the office, it didnt matter to her how she got there. Alexander didnt dwell on the topic again as the driver came and he instructed the driver to take Amelia to the office. You make sure to see her enter the office building before leaving Alexander said in a serious tone and the driver immediately understood and nodded. Madam, this way.. the driver used a hand gesture to lead Amelia to a ck Range Rover car. Alexander watched Amelias back as she got in the car, soon they drove off. He narrowed his eyes a bit when he saw his phone vibrating, he answered the call with a cold expression What is it?? Alexander said in a business tone. As if the caller owed him billions of dors. Eh-Im at the airport, I just got down from the ne and. Alexander immediately shut her off with a: I know! He said it coldly that Ash felt goosebumps all over her skin but she didntin as she was already immune or rather, she had gotten used to his cold temperament. But no matter how long theyve known each other, she was still frightened by him whenever they talk, even though she was in love with him. Alexander didnt wait for her to continue and he directly ended the call and got into the car, heading to the capital, where the Airport was located. Ash dropped her phone as she looked around the airport, its been a while she board the ne so she sat at the waiting center for Alexander. A few minutester, Alexander parked his car in front of the airport but he didnt get off just then as he took out his phone and dialed Ashs phone number Im outside Ash bit her lips, she had thought that alexander would be a little warm to her ande in to help her carry her luggage or at leaste into the airport to meet her like other friends do. Oh okay Ash replied nevertheless, it was already a good thing that he came to pick her up and she was contented with that. At least it was a progressive sign, she still had time to make him fall head over heels for her. Alexander hung up after Ash said that and he sat in the car. Ash looked around the airport and she sighted a man selling brooches at the side of the airport. She dragged her luggage towards the man. Hey beautifuldy, do you want to buy brooches?? The man asked cheerfully as he immediately brought out all his wares and brooches of all types and colors. I want that ck one, yes and that white too, how much are they?? Ash said as she took two brooches, Alexander always like wearing ck or white so these brooches would fit his clothes. she smiled at herself as she paid for the brooches and single-handedly dragged her luggage out of the airport. She looked around for Alexanders car and then he spotted a call that had an X on the te number 146DX It was a weird type of te number but she immediately knew that that car was Alexs. Alexander remained in the car and only looked up when he heard a soft tapping on the window of the car and he frowned as he looked up. His expression only softened a bit when he saw that it was ash, he pulled his seat belt off and came down from the car Ash tried to contain her excitement as she was aware that Alexander doesnt like girls who were not ssic, his taste of women was those that were well cultured and reserved as him so she always tried to portray that image. Xander you came, it was such a hectic day, I have a serious jetg, Ash said as she dragged her luggage to the back seat of Alexanders car and Alexander helped her carry the bags into the seat without much expression. Ash didnt force him to talk as he was a man of few words, his charisma was something she was attracted to. He was always reserved. Get in the car, were heading to the hotel youll be staying, Alex said and opened the car door and went to the drivers seat. Ash opened the passengers seat by herself without asking Alex to help her with it. She happily got in and sat quietly. Hows work these days?? She asked as she made herselffortable. Its being well, when are youing over to resume work at the office?? Alexander asked instead and Ash was immediately delighted that Alexander was actually urging her to quickly start work, has he been missing her for a while now?? Ash hid her delightful smile as she answered inly, trying not to look affected by him I still dont know, I cant tell, let me get rid of this jetg first and adjust to the new environment, ash said as she didnt want to seem like a loose in front of him, she wanted him to struggle before gaining her. She doesnt want to be easy ess to him, and with that she didnt give him a definite time. Okay, its better that way, alexander said without thinking too deeply about it and continued driving to the hotel that he had George book for Ash yesterday. George and Liam were aware that Ash would be joining them in the office soon, and they were looking forward to her. Underhanded Method Soon, The ck Range Rover was about to reach the office building but Amelia asked the driver to park close to a building near Rons Headquarter. Madam, Master asked me to watch you get in, the driver said as he was confused why Amelia suddenly asked him to stop close by and not in the garage of the office. I just want to get off here, you can watch me go in from here, Amelia said as she reasoned that it wouldnt look good if she was linked to their boss, in case she met new people, she didnt want them to be modest with her because of her identity as their bosss wife. And she didnt want that. She wanted her few days here at the office to go well. With that, she opened the car door and the driver gasped Maam Dont worry, I know what Im doing Amelia said as she closed the door and looked left and right before crossing the road and headed towards the front desk of Rons Headquarter. The Front desk floor was really wide and spacious. She checked the time and it was almost 9 Am. Amelia saw the receptionist behind the desk and she walked towards her. Hello Amelia said without much expression as she faced the receptionist. The receptionist was in all smile as she looked at Amelia How can I help you miss?? The receptionist gazed at Amelia with a discerning eye and Amelia wasntfortable with the receptionists gaze at her. Well, Im a new employee here at the top floor I guess Amelia said with uncertainty, this was her first time here so she didnt know if it was the top floor but she knew that she was the CEOs new assistant. A hint of mockery shed through the receptionists eyes as she had a faint snare on her face, she thought that Amelia was probably lying cause the top floors were highly restricted areas and not essible for anyone, and that was theid down rules. Miss I guess youre at the wrong block, The Rons Headquarters is not a ce for any random girl to just enter, the receptionist said not wanting to talk to Amelia anymore which made Amelia also impatient. This is Rons headquarter so Im not mistaken Amelia retorted The receptionist snorted at Amelia I advise you get something better to do than waste your time all dressed up just because you want to catch a glimpse of our CEO The receptionist had seen girls like her who doll themselves up to wait in line for their CEO. who doesnt want to bed Alexander Ron?? All girls in the capital want to be able to sleep in his arms, so seeing that Amelia was all dressed up for that, she had aplete disdain for her. Is this how you usually talk to people?? This is being rude Amelia said with angerced in her voice. With that, some employees gathered around to see what was happening there, some were whispering amongst themselves while some who had heard from the receptionist what was going on snared at Amelia. She wasnt having any of these at all, she didnt me Alexander that he had to let here by herself since he said he had something to do but that: Ash.. It seemed to be a girl, she wasnt angry at the fact that he must have a girl outside their bondage called marriage but at least, he should have brought her to the office first before running to his woman.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. One side of Amelia felt pity for the girl, she couldnt be free with her boyfriend and all lovey-dovey with him because of her, she must have create problem for the two love birds. But turning to face the receptionist again, Amelia was really vexed as to why she got to be bad-mouthed because of a guy who was probably sleeping in a womans arm right now, Amelias eyes turn bloodshot as she stared at the receptionist as if she was her prey. And what if I am truly an employee here?? Amelia said with gritted teeth. The receptionist rolled her eyes at Amelia, at this point she was convinced that Amelia wasnt an employee because she didnt have a work badge or ID card on. If you truly are, Ill immediately kowtow for you and resign from my post as the receptionist The receptionist betted on that because she was convinced that Amelia was a fraud and was just trying to put on airs. Thats fine with me, Amelia said with a tight frown Id advise you dont get too excited yet cause if it turns out youre a loose dog who is after a man, youll have to pay everybody here, were about twelve in total and youll pay each of us 15 dors, The receptionist said with a profound smile as she scanned Amelia from head to toes. The employees kept whispering amongst themselves Shes such a beauty, I wonder why she just chose to stain her familys name Id just advise she go hit her head in the wall and die instead of being so shameless, what a pity Tsk Tsk this is incredulous, waste of spermatozoa to produce nonsense The whispers of the employees got to the receptionists ear and a smug grin appeared on her face, she wanted the extra cash from Amelia to get a new brand of bag that was reigning in the mall and almost all socialites had the bag, she couldnt afford to lose out. Amelia turned towards the door while dialing Alexanders phone number but he wasnt answering the call, she tried again and again until she was frustrated but she didnt let it show on her face. The receptionist saw that Amelia kept fiddling with her phone and she snarled What?? So youve retorted to an underhanded method of making fake calls, just admit it maybe I can consider giving you some discount The receptionist really had a foul mouth as she scanned Amelia and this dresses, if I was told that they were borrowed, I will be so convinced without a doubt, just admit it and beg me the receptionist said and the other employees felt pity for Amelia while some were disappointed in her for trying to fake calls just to prove a point. Shameful! Owe A Debt Amelia didnt pay them any heed and was about to dial his number again when she remembered that he had gone to meet his girlfriend. She almost facepalmed, she didnt want to disturb them as she had already caused a problem for them by getting married to Alex. if she was the girl, she wouldnt have been happy to see her boyfriend married to another girl even if it was just a contract marriage. Amelia didnt pay attention to them anymore and searched for the number George had called her with the other night and immediately dialed it when she saw the number. What if she is a new employee here?? A male worker asked with uncertainty as he looked at Amelia who was oozing confidence all over her. The receptionist immediately snorted and kicked off the idea, She imed she is a new employee on the top floor. Who else is allowed into the top floor if not the executive managers, board of directors and the CEO, and other respective employees,?? and she isnt fit to be there the receptionist said and looked at Amelia eyeball to eyeball while ring at Amelia. Amelia had pictured a wonderful first day of work but now, it went the wrong way. Soon a voice came from the other side of Amelias phone Hello Amelia immediately held her waist and turned to face the door, backing the employees Hello, is this George?? Amelia asked to be sure Sister-inw, of course, its George on the line George had already saved Amelias contact number the very day he took her number from Alexanders phone when they went to execute Lorenzo Go at the bar. Phew.. Amelia breathed in a sigh of relief turned to face the workers and asked Are you in Rons headquarters now?? When the male employee who had asked if she was an employee, immediately started doubting the authenticity of the receptionists words. I cant get myself involved in this, Im off the male employee immediately said and the receptionist turned towards him Dont you want the 15 dors?? The receptionist asked the man who shook his head repeatedly No I dont Then Ill keep your share, the receptionist said with a smile, that was 30 dors already, and the money for the bag was almostplete. She clicked her tongue when she saw Amelia still on the phone but a part of her was getting uneasy. Okay please can youe down, the receptionist is one hell of a character, Amelia said and threw a side nce at the receptionist. Okay thank you, Amelia said with courtesy and ended the call. Mr. George will be here in five minutes, Amelia said provocatively at the receptionist. Some of the employees immediately felt uneasy as some scurried away while some stood to watch how it was going to end. Please take all the money, we dont want it anymore, some of the employees said while the others nodded in agreement. If was already a lifetime blessing that they were able to work in Rons headquarters, even big directors of otherpanies still gave them respect for only being a small employee at Rons headquarters, they didnt want to take chances with their jobs just because of 15 dors that werent even up to their monthly sry. The receptionists face turned grim when she saw that she was now on her own as the other employees withdrew from her side, but immediately her face turned to that of a happy person when she thought that she would be getting all their money to herself. Which she estimated to be 180 dors, it was already a good thing for her. With confidence, she buffed up her chest as she watched Amelia You lying snake, since you said so, okay Ill give you some time to keep that proud expression on until the five-minute excuse is over and you get all red due to embarrassment the receptionist said in certainty and she set a time rm on as they all waited. Amelia red hard at the receptionist It will be so entertaining to see how that fake and stic face of yours turns out ugly in a few minutes and dont worry about me, Im not poor but you should think more of yourself, you might lose your job in five minutes Amelia said with a cold arc on her lips, a smile that wasnt yet a smile, she looked condescending and arrogant with that expression, full of self-pride. I wonder which damnpany would want to hire a wretched woman that was kicked out of Rons headquarter, oh now I know, probably a small pencil-producingpany will Amelia provoked the receptionist as she kept a neutral face Pfft.. some workers couldnt hold back theirughter while some swallowed it down to the stomach. The receptionist almost wavered when she thought of their bet but then again, Amelia said she called mr George, that was too funny. George was one of the top employees here and he couldnt be summoned by just anyone to talk more of a girl who wasnt worth her nails. The receptionist was full of confidence again Youve got a sharp tongue, I must say but lets just wait for how you get embarrassed The receptionist smiled and soon her rm went off, five minutes was over. The employees looked at Amelia and looked at the private elevator that the top employees usually take but there was no sign of Mr George. They were starting to regret that they rejected the money and the receptionist would have it all.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. The receptionist gave them a pro-founding and provocative smile What?? Regret it now?? But toote, I got all the money cause I have good eyesight, when I see fraudsters I know them The receptionist looked past them and gazed at Amelia whose face was still cold without a ripple in her expression, she wasnt in a panic state as the receptionist had expected, she still looked calm. The receptionist scoffed when she thought that Amelia was probably trying to look cool by being or lookingposed, her mind must have been in turmoil by now but she didnt want to show it. As the receptionist thought of those facts she looked more vexed as she looked at Amelia with a deep frown Trying to act cool now?? Just drop the act if I were you, five minutes is over already, and you owe me a debt of 180 dors soe let me give you my bank details so you can deposit the money immediately before leaving, and dont even try anything funny the receptionist said with full confidence which made Amelias brow twitched in a displeased manner. We Made A Bet What?? Cant pay up?? I can consider you if you kneel and lick my shoes, maybe I can show you a bit of mercy the receptionist said and Amelia remained there without a single ounce of anger, she had no expression on. Ill call him again, maybe he didnt hear what I said earlier Amelia responded calmly and tried to call George again but the receptionist snarled You cant do that, just pay up and stop looking for excuses, shameless woman The receptionist couldnt wait to get the alert of 180 dors in her phone. Amelia was about to argue when a hurried footstep came from the stairs, she raised her head and saw George running down with sweat on his forehead. The receptionist had a smile on, but her smile dropped little by little as her eyes shrieked. He really came, but then the receptionist shook off the thought, that maybe it was a coincidence that he came down at this moment. Sir George, thisdy is uncultured and ill-mannered, she tried to force her way into the office saying she was an employee at the top floor, shes being making a scene the receptionist immediatelyined to George so he could see that she was doing her job and that Amelia was at fault. Mrs George trailed off when seeing Amelias re at him, she didnt want him to expose her identity in the office which he immediately understood but then again, he wondered why, cause any woman in her position would want people to tter them and they would even brag with the name Ron just to get attention but Amelia not only conceal her name but also remained humble which George felt happy about, she wasnt a peacock. His level of respect for her, heightened again. Im sorry foringte, the elevator is under repair for now so I had to take the stairs down, which was hectic , please forgive me George almost kowtowed to Amelia and she just shook her head at him Its no problem, sorry for the trouble I caused you, I just want you to clear the air around here, I wasnt allowed to the top floor by a certain someone Amelias gaze brushed past the already paled Receptionist who was shivering all over with a disorganized face. Who dares to stop the CEOs new assistant froming to the top floor?? George swept his gaze around and the employees around immediately held their breath while some were bold enough to point at the receptionist. Georges expression turned ugly as he looked at the receptionist who acted like a fly that had stepped on poop, the very first time he came in. You.. George looked at the receptionist whose knees were about to give up, already weak to keep up, she wasnt standing with a straight back anymore. And who has the effrontery to make my guest displeased?? A cold voice rang out from the front door and everybody turned towards the voice.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. The receptionist paled even more As her lips turned blue from paleness, she was doomed, she had no idea that thisdy was their CEOs assistant and guest and she had ndly disrespected her. Amelias eyes shed in pity when she saw Alexander who wasing from the front door. Such a fine man but unfortunately, he couldnt be united with his lover because of her. She suddenly felt remorseful towards Alexander so she made a promise to herself that she would be of good conduct and take care of him so that he wouldnt be frustrated, he mustve gone to soothe his girlfriend again so she didnt n on giving him a hard time. Alexander made his way in with both hands by his sides, he threw a cold nce at the receptionist before looking at Amelia. His brows furrowed when he saw an expression he couldnt describe in Amelias eyes, was that a look of pity?? He wasnt sure as he looked for a second time but she had already turned her head to look at the receptionist. Alexander wondered if he had seen wrong, he wasnt a person who looked pitiful to be pitied. Sir Ron, this ipetent imbecile not only stopped Mrs Amelia froming to the top floor but she also called her names, George said while fixing his gaze on the receptionist who was already crying bucket. And also asked me to pay her 180 dors if I turn out to be a fraud and one of the numerous girls who are dying to sleep their way to your bed Amelia didnt n on giving the receptionist a way out. Alexanders expression turned from a frown to a deeper and tight frown, apanied by a re. Who was this receptionist to disrespect his wife?? If only the receptionist knew that Amelia was vengeful, she always like to pay back those who offended her, she was never the one to suffer any losses. Alexander walked towards Amelia and asked in a high-pitched voice How would you like to return the favor?? The other employee held their breath so as not to get noticed by the CEO, they were thankful that they immediately washed their hands off the matter. else their life would have also been in thisdys hands. George had a small grin on his face when he heard that. Amelia stared into Alexanders eyes as he was standing faced her, for some reasons, she felt giddy and her heart wasnt at rest. He always pampered her as if Shut it, Amy! Amelia immediately removed her gaze from Alexanders as she tried to stabilize her mood while repeating this slogan; Hes already taken and he wont even take a fancy to you, his ideal types are noble women while she was just a sold-off children without a mother or any ounce of gracefulness. With that, her mood was stable as she had a clear mind, she wasnt even prepared to be in a serious rtionship she didnt want to be in a rtionship because, to her, men were harmful, she could lose her life just like her mother lost her life because of her dad, her father used his influence to brush off the facts that her mother died due to him, and state that her mother died due to cancer, she wasnt going to thread that path like her mother. So she dispelled all thoughts of Alexander and she focused on the main topic. I dont need to say it as we made a bet, you must still remember your words clearly, right??! Amelia said with a small smile that was nerve-wracking. The receptionist burst into tears as she begged Amelia Im sorry I dont want to lose my job, Im really sorry, I was ignorant Is Very Auspicious Alexander stared at Amelia and was satisfied, he suddenly had a new impression of her. She wasnt a saint who let go off grudges, she wasnt those girls who tried to act like theyve forgiven a person who offended them, Amelia does what she wants without caring about what others think. She was self-made. Earlier, when he dropped ash at the hotel, she had invited him for tea but he declined saying that he had to be at the office. But she insisted so he had no choice but to have a cup of tea, he left his phone in his car due to hurrying. He hadnt drunk up to half of the tea in the cup when he realized that he left his phone in the car, he bid ash goodbye and left the hotel, he was stunned when he saw that he had five missed calls from Amelia and he immediately frowned and drove to the office. He didnt call her back, instead, he called George to see if she had sessfully gotten to the office, he was worried that the calls were from his enemies, using Amelias phone, maybe they got their hands on Amelia but George said that He too just got a call from Amelia, saying that the receptionist was being rude to her. He rxed a bit and drove directly to the office area, instead of going to his private garage, he parked his car at the employees garage and went to the front desk. And met this scene. You werent so polite when you called me shameless, well, youre right, I can be so shameless at times Amelia smiled coldly as she stood in ce. Im sorry, I failed to recognize you, its a fault on my part The receptionists face was all red and eyes swollen, she couldnt afford to get sacked or rather retire from her job after much difficulty. I dont want the money anymore please! The receptionist added thinking that the money should be one of the reasons Amelia was angry. Nah, you will want it, Alexander said and the receptionist shuddered in fright, Amelia looked at Alexander and gave him a hint and he just made his fist into a tight ball and took a step back, indicating that he wouldnt do anything just as Amelia wanted. Amelia was grateful that heplied Tsk please dont beg me, it makes me seem bad, Im not saying that you should get sacked, what Im saying is that we shouldply with the deal, simple, werent you all there?? Amelia asked the question and turned to the employees who were standing there. The employees faces turned grim, they had tried to make themselves invincible but thedy just chose to ask them questions. Yes Y-yes Thats right, all of them said simultaneously as they nodded, when Alexander turned to face them, the hairs on their nape rose in dread. But Alexander didnt pay them any heed as he turned to look at Amelia. She was so sly and smart.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. He didnt like women who were weak and always bullied, he wanted his woman to be the bully and not the bullied. Amelia looked so fierce Now, you can evacuate the office building ording to the agreement, you are at the office front, you are the face of thepany so your character can determine the rise or fall of customers rate, what if a big investor had walked in here wearing in clothes, with your foul and rotten gutter mouth, you would have probably called him a beggar who wants to beg your CEO Amelia said, she hated people who looked down on others the most. Letting this woman continue to be the receptionist is like putting a vicious-looking dog at thepany so it could drive big shots from thepany. She had never wanted this matter to escte to this point but the receptionist is one hell of a creature. George see that thisdy leaves this building within 30 minutes, and have the HR take care of her sry, Alexander said without much expression and directly took Amelias hand and walked towards the CEOs private elevator and then the door slowly closed as they left everyones sight. The receptionist wailed and cursed at Amelia you bitch, Ille for you the security men dragged her out of the building and George went to see if the elevator for Employees at the top floor was fully repaired and working again. Other Employees immediately became aware of this new assistant of the CEO, they vowed to be more cautious and respectful towards her. while some started making spections about what their rtionship was. Meanwhile, at the elevator, Amelia stared at their intertwined fingers and she immediately coughed and signaled for Alexander to release his tight grip on her hand. Alexander let go of her hand and waited for the elevator to get to his office space. I thought you were in danger Alexander broke the silence but was still looking ahead Why did you think so?? Amelia asked instead You called me five times which is very auspicious, Alexander said and turned to face her this time. Amelia thought he was angry that she must have probably disturbed him and his lovers time together and she felt regretful. Im sorry, I forgot that you told me you were busy, I shouldnt have called For some reason, Alexander felt that she meant something else when she said that but then again he had told her this morning that he had to be somewhere. He also felt remorseful that if he had taken her to the office before heading to pick up Ash at the airport, Amelia wouldnt have suffered such grievances today. He didnt linger in that though and just stood straight without a word Amelia gazed up at him before maintaining a professional face and soon, the elevator made a ding sound and the elevator opened as the both of them walked out. Amelia was in awe when she saw the floor, it was really wide and spacious with no trace of dust, high maintenance was used in this building. Just about four doors were there, three of the doors were made of fine wood while the other one was made of also made of timber but it was wider and bigger, The CEOs office was boldly written on the door with a silver case. Amelia had thought that They were actually heading to the top floor but this was the twelfth floor and she had imagined it to be filled with employees but just a few doors were there. Surprised to see just four doors?? Alexander chuckled as he slowed down a bit so she could catch up with him. Amelia didnt deny it but nodded while looking around Come here, Alexander said and walked towards one of the doors and opened it directly. Amelia who was at his back, gasped in shock when she saw what was inside. Traveled Into Time Amelia had initially thought that the door led to an office space of a prominent employee but she was surprised to see that it was an open office filled with employees. Amelia estimated that there were up to six employees upying the space, each facing theirptops andputers. When they saw Alexander, they hurriedly got up and were about to greet him when he shut the door without much expression. The employees were the Companys legal practitioners. they consist of men and women. What just happened?? An olderdy asked while the others shrugged their shoulders in utter confusion. Have no idea a man said and sat back on his chair to continue his work. Amelia was impressed by how it was arranged, they didnt need to see employees moving around or working. The arrangements were good. Amelia zed around and walked behind the man who had a straight back. Amelia looked at Alexander and paid more attention to his back view, he had broad shoulders which made him more charismatic. What position does George upy?? Amelia asked as they walked towards the CEOs office. He is a shareholder and also a director here, Alexander said shortly and Amelia hummed. Where will I be upying then?? She asked as she didnt see a table and desk close to the door of The CEOs office which got her confused for a while. Alexander didnt answer too quickly as he opened his door and walked in. His office wasnt too of a topic to say, it was the typical office but had a bit of riches to it, the interiors were all from high grades, too brand. The office was spacious and luxurious. But the officecked a touch of humanity as it was too nd and too serious looking like the upant. Youve got a nice office Ameliaplimented Ah too bad, only if the owner was as good as the building, she said that small in a low voice. You know, if you could channel your hateful speeches to this work, I estimate that I could earn about six more clients, Alexander said with a serious expression as if he was thinking.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Amelia immediately red at him I wont say anything to that as I dont want you thinking And why will I think?? Alexander asked as he sat on his table to face Amelia. Amelia stood close to him, she gazed at him again and that look of sympathy shed past her eyes, she wanted to say; I dont want you thinking how life would have been if your girlfriend was your wife and you didnt get to marry me, you must be torn and had to exin everything to your girlfriend Alexander frowned when he saw that look again and this time he was more certain that she was taking pity on him. He searched through him why she had to pity him and his expression didnt look good anymore as his frown deepened even more. Amelia swallowed her words as she didnt want to start telling him soothing words and it might seem stupid. So she just swallowed her words and said rather Nothing though Alexander narrowed his eyes at her What do you want to say?? Just spit it out Alexander wasnt happy about her sudden change of character towards him. From the very moment he walked into the office earlier, she had being overly calm towards him and so serious and that. that look she gave him. Im not hiding anything, lets just get down to business, Amelia said because she had made a promise to herself that she wouldnt want to spoil or create a rift between Alexander and his lover so she wanted to make it look more business and not that yful times, she wanted to give him space to deal with his love life. Alexander used his fingers to flick her on the forehead Be good Amelia swallowed hard and didnt say anything more and just rubbed the ce Alexander had flicked. Alexander looked quizzically at Amelia and he confirmed that everything wasnt well, the Amelia he knew would not stay still after getting her forehead hit by him. Its either she scolded him or tried to hit him back but she just rubbed it and said nothing more. He wanted to ask her what the problem was but he went against it, it wasnt his business anyway, maybe she was on her period as he heard that women on their period tend to act differently from their usual selves, they were moody. Lets get down to business then, since it was ast-minute decision and I didnt get the chance to arrange a new office, for the time being, you will be sharing an office space with me, Alexander said while hiding his true thoughts. Eh?? Amelia didnt quite get what he said as she was focused on looking at him with a close and keen eye, thinking of ways to keep her distance from him. Alexander sighed and said Whats gotten into youtely?? You are so lost as if you traveled into time Alexander wasnt happy with her current behavior. Amelia thought that she was being foolish right now, was she so obvious?? And if you are thinking if your behavior is obvious?? Of course, it is and its very irritating Im-Im sorry, it wont happen again, Amelia said with a low head, she had never been this submissive to a man before but she didnt know why she felt more remorseful. Alexander didnt say a word and looked at her for a while before getting off the table and going to take his seat. Amelia cleared her throat and looked at him while he gestured for her to sit opposite him and she did so. I said that youll be upying this office with me Alexander emphasized this time and Amelia just nodded her head without further ado. Okay, since its just an intro today and Ill be your assistant officially by tomorrow, I got to go now, Amelia said and Alexander gazed at her deeply Where?? What I told you about, I got to go meet the best couples of the year, Amelia said while getting up from the chair and Alex could tell who she was referring to. Do you want me to apany you?? Alexander asked as he wasntfortable with her going there alone. No, no need, I can take care of things myself, Amelia said and walked towards the door while Alexander sat there, looking at her intently while trying to think of the reason she had suddenly be so distant from him. Amelia opened the door and walked out while closing the door behind her, Alex sighed as he rxed on the chair. For the past two days that he got drunk and slept in Amelias room, he didnt understand himself as the thoughts of Amelia clouded his mind, he was so concerned about her and now that she was acting weird, his mind was busy thinking what must have gone wrong. Arghh Alex grabbed his hair and shook his head as if to wipe his thought just then the door opened and Amelia stuck her head into the office and Alexander was stunned to see her. Amelia shed him a wide smile from behind the door and he felt as if something pressed down on his chest as that exciting feeling built up in his belly and his heart fought in his rib cage. I’ve got my eyes on you Umm, can youe pick me upter?? Im not having a good feeling about this Amelia said as she perked her head from behind the door. When she came out earlier, her subconscious told her to be prepared as her fathers call wasnt a simple one so she had to prepare backup now. And she knew Alexander was her sure backbone, he could help her. She didnt want to ask him at first but when she thought that she should at least use Alexander to solve some problems before the contract expires, that way she wouldnt be losing out on this. Sure thing, but be careful. Alexander trailed off as he looked at her deeply while she nodded and closed the door. Alexander immediately took out his phone dialed a series of number and ced the phone close to his ear. Resolver, Follow madam behind the shadows, and protect her at her cost Alexander gave a strict warning and ended the call. Just then, his phone rang again and he answered and said a simple Come in, as for tomorrow, youre evacuating to the entertainmentpany The person on the other side replied with an okay and the call hung up. Alexander sighed deeply as he stared at the ceiling for a while. A knock came from the door and he already knew who was knocking Enter! The door slowly opened and a young man walked in with a file in his hand, he quickly walked towards Alexs seat and started reporting his schedules for the day. Sir, we got a call from Mr. Whacker, he wants to hold a masquerade ball in two days, are we going?? The secretary asked Alexander gazed at his secretary, his secretary saw Mr whacker as just an AIpany owner but Alexander knew MR whackers other identity. Mr whacker was a mafia who was dreaded by his generation, they were the founders of Mafia gangs in Europe, and after Lorraine Ron, Alexanders father, Mr whacker came second. Mr whacker was also a prominent figure in the business world and a legend in the underworld. But Alexanders secretary was oblivious to all these as he saw Mr. Whacker as just a rich CEO of an AI techpany. Tsk, but it was better not to get this youngd involved. Sure, Ill be going, Alexander said while rxing on his chair, Mr whacker was never afraid of anybody as all mafias, both bad and good were his friends. So Alexander wont be surprised if Knight Was invited as well. Emm sir, He specifically stated that youe with a female partner, The secretary said with uncertainty in his tone. Alexander frowned a bit and just waved at the secretary to continue with the rest of his schedule. Sir thats all the men are already waiting for you in the boardroom, the secretary saidstly and walked out of the office after receiving Alexanders nod. Meanwhile, when Amelia reached the front door, all the employees she met on the way, greeted her respectfully and she didnt even care what they were thinking as she made her way out. When she reached the side of the road, she hailed down a taxi got in, and told the man where she was heading to.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Amelia sighed deeply as she sat in the car, thinking of the worst thing that could happen but she prepared herself mentally. Soon the car stopped in front of her fathers house and she paid the man and got down from the car. After the driver drove away, Amelia just stood in front of the house while looking at it. There were lots of emotions brewing in the depths of her eyes, this house had brought her both joy and pain as well. After getting sold to Alexander, who she doesnt love, she never thought she woulde back to this house that gave her a sickening feeling in the bottom of her stomach. She made a tight fist and took three steps towards the house, when she got to the door, she was about to knock when her phone made a dig sound and she took her phone and saw a message on her phone screen, it was a message from Alexander. She looked at it in confusion as she gazed around her. The message contains {Ive got my eyes on you} Was she being stalked now?? Or did Alexander have his men follow her around?? Seriously??!! Amelia didnt like the idea of being followed by some people who would be reporting her every move to her husband. She frowned deeply in displease and turned to look around once more and didnt see anything suspicious but she narrowed her eyes at the man taking bags full of dumped refuse from peoples dump bin. As a militant, she could immediately figure out the slightest w in a person. Amelia admitted that the man was skilled as he was just focused on removing the dirt into his dump truck, he wasnt even looking in her direction as if he was oblivious to her presence there. But the only w he had was that he was wearing thetest Wristband that was produced by a famous jewelrypany. It cost at least five million to get the watch, it was so expensive and pocket tearing. A man who was just a dump collector wouldnt be able to afford such a watch unless he had to save up his three years sry. Amelia immediately texted Alexander in fury: {if you want your damn men spying on me as waste management, then remind him to pull off his watch that cost five million} In the meeting room, directors from anotherpany came to sign a contract of coboration with Rons headquarter. They were discussing the terms when they suddenly heard a chuckle and they turned towards Alexander. Alexander was a bit amused when he saw her text, she truly had sharp eyes to notice this small detail. She was indeed something else. Girls of her age werent this smart as their eyes were covered with noodles and sperm, to even notice. He didnt even know when a small chuckle left his mouth and when he felt that the men were looking at him, he frowned immediately and threw them a deadly re that their backs immediately stiffened in fright. One of the directors was displeased, he was their junior and all the men present were this brats elders but he was never respectful towards them. Power and Money were the root of all blessings! Alexander gave a quick text back to Amelia: {Im sorry if youre ufortable but I have no choice, go do your thing, well talk about it when you get home} Amelia snorted at the message and thought that he was afraid of her getting kidnapped and his contract mate being killed, it would be a hassle for him to get a new contract partner. But it should be a good thing for him right?? He will get the chance to introduce his girlfriend to his parents. Amelia didnt think much of it anymore and zed at the dump collector who was so focused on collecting the refuse. She sighed before knocking but she discovered that the door was left open which was unusual. Her frown deepened as she held the knob to push it open Day time dreamers A ceramic te flew towards Amelia just as she opened the door, she instinctively dodged to the side and the te shattered on the ground. Amelia frowned and walked into the living room and saw that the family of three was all in the living room. Amelia raised a brow and walked in only to see tes on the ground. Amelia youre finally here Luke turned to Amelia and said with a small voice as if putting in a lot of effort to console her. Amelia felt sick when she saw her father putting in much effort to console her, she was disgusted at the two-faced man. But even though she had a strong hatred for her father, there was still this part of her that had hopes for him, for him to change and stop being greedy. Amelia immediately went soft as she lowered her tone and said: You called me here, whats going on?? You see theres a reason we called you here but first of all, rx, and you what are you still doing, go get your sister a cup of brewed coffee Luke immediately pretended scolding Jolie. Amelia felt something was wrong when Jolie obediently smiled and went to get her coffee. This wasnt a simple invitation. Jolie soon came back with the cup of coffee ced it on a small stool and brought it close to Amelia Sister I recently came out first in my tea-making ss so I decided to personally brew this coffee for you, please try it and tell me what you think!! Jolie said with a ttery smile that made Amelia want to puke on her face so her disguise could fall off. Mhm, sure.. Amelia said with a shallow smile without taking the coffee on the stool. Jolie red at Amelia when she wasnt paying attention, Jolie tried to suppress her anger as she stood there like a butler ready to take her orders. Come on daughter, drink the coffee your sister made for you, you would give her some face right?? Marion said with a small smile. Amelia looked at the mother and daughter, was Marion trying to put her in the tight spot??. Amelia took the coffee and brought it close to her mouth, sipped a bit, and dropped it again while nodding Its very nice, well done Jolie Marion exchanged secret nces with Jolie and Jolie tried to conceal her small smile. Thank you, sister, Jolie said and went to sit close to her mom. So why was I called here?? Amelia asked mr Luke. Luke cleared his throat and looked at Amelia with a tender gaze You know, thest time we came to your house, it didnt turn out good and we are deeply sorry for causing trouble for you.. Amelia remembered the day the two couples came and they were rebuked by Alexander and dragged out of the house. Oh, that day you and Marion were driven out of my house?? oh that, I remember! Amelia said with a shallow smile and felt secretly delighted when she saw Marions face turn purple due to embarrassment and anger while Lukes face paled. But being the shameless man, Luke didnt drop the matter to at least have a bit of dignity So we would like to propose something to you, you see, I know you arent favored in your marriage, you got married without love. For your good, I and your mother concluded to go meet Mr. Lorraine Ron and tell him we want to swap you with your sister here, you know, she is fitter than Alexanders wife because she is a beauty and has a lot of socialworks that could benefit alexander and his business, just step down for your sister, I know you love her a lot and have her in your heart Luke said and looked at Jolie. Jolie blushed and hugged her mothers arm and Marion nodded at Amelia Thats true dear, by that time, youll get to live your carefree life again, you know, going to the bar,ing homete and ying with friends Amelias veins pop up on her forehead in fury, she looks at her father in utter disappointment. that part of her that wanted her father immediately quenched like fire that came in contact with water. Luke Robertson was truly a two-faced and ugly-minded man. Marion must have a hand in this arrangement. And I want you to think it positively, when you agree to this arrangement, well hand over all your mothers properties to you, Luke said with a smile and Amelia was immediately infuriated. Since her mother died, all her things were infringed by Luke while some of her mothers jewelry was taken by Marion and her daughter, and now, they wanted to bribe her with something that was hers, to begin with??. Amelia felt ridiculous, no wonder they offered her coffee. In your wildest dreams Amelia managed to say and the smiling expression on Lukes face immediately dropped as a cold face emerged to show his true colors. You dare, you have no choice, you must give way for your sister whether you like it or not, Luke said in fury Dont be so unfilial as to watch your sister suffer Marion reprimanded Amelia but within her, she had much more hateful words to say but held on because Luke was there. You cant be with Alexander so dont even try declining this offer, you dont have what it takes, so just leave me to fix things for you, Jolie said impatiently and stared at Amelia. Amelia gave her a tight re which made Jolie tremble in fright, she wasnt and hadnt been able to withstand Amelias hard look, she gave her a dread feeling. Amelia let out a coldugh Want me to step down?? You all must be a dreamer, daytime dreamers, I was sold without my consent just to treat your daughter and now, your daughter is healthy and you want me to leave my marriage for her?? You lie, Im not leaving my home Amelia said in fury, if not she had show some filial piety, she would have given them the real piece on her mind. She felt ridiculous. You choose to do it the hard way, I tried but since you y dumb, then bear with the consequences, Luke said with a high level of disgust towards her. Amelia immediately felt something was wrong and she got up from her seat but just then, two hands grabbed her arms and she tried to struggle Two burly men were holding her captive as she tried to struggle.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Dad whats the meaning of all this shit?? Amelia was so angry, she was a bit dizzy and her arms lost a total amount of energy and she felt something was off with her body system. Slow and cunning mafia You are always unfilial and despicable, you cant even help your little sister, drag her out, and lock her in the basement Luke shouted at his butler and the bodyguard there. Marion saw this as a good opportunity as she went to meet Luke and held his armHoney calm down, shes still a young girl and a bit immature sometimes, let me talk to her, maybe youll agree to see reasons with us Marion said softly before walking to Amelia. She pretended she didnt see the state Amelia was in. Amelia immediately frowned as she looked at the cup of coffee, they had drug her, she just took a sip before pouring it back into the cup when they werent looking.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Upon all, she was still affected by just the little quantity on her tongue. Despicable people, she just hope that Alexandere on time. Amy dear, youre gonna give mom some face by listening to her right?? Marion asked after sessfully masking her disgusted expression. Amelia felt the urge tough, Marion truly deserves the Best Actress of the Year award. Ah, what a waste of talent, you should be a movie star instead of roaming around the Robertson mansion Amelia snorted and used force to break free from the mens grip when they were least expecting her to retaliate. Amelia immediately grabbed Marion and used her head to hit Marions forehead. She wasnt the type of girl who waited for the man toe to save her, she had to find a way first before Alexander arrived. Thats if he was going toe! Mom! How dare you slut hit my mother?? I kill you today witch Jolie screamed and ran towards Marion. Marion felt as if a time bomb had exploded in her head as blood rushed towards her head, blood dripped out of her nose as she fell on the ground, not able to utter a word. Amelia quickly turned and used her fist to hit the butler in his jaw and used her legs to hit his stomach. He crunched down in pain as he held onto his stomach, his head fuzzy. Amelia felt a bit weak as the drug started to take effect, but she still managed to bring the guard down. Where are the others?? Go get that wrenched daughter and torture her for me Luke shouted in fury as he saw his wife on the ground in a miserable state. Amelia turned to run out but her legs seemed to be glued to the ground, taking a step was so heavy and difficult. She stumbled back and Jolie saw that and immediately ran towards Amelia, Youre too much Amy, now go die Jolie grabbed a broken piece of te and rushed towards Amelia. Even in her stupor, Amelia still struggled to dodge but her body seemed drained of energy, Jolie stretched out her hand that was holding the broken ceramic towards her face. Amelias eyes widened in shock as the ceramic became more in her sight, she had no other option left as she fell to the ground but she wasnt fast enough. The ceramic cut her on her back as she fell to the ground, she didnt have the time to feel the pain as she copsed and cked out as she hit the hard ground. Jolie gritted her teeth and gave Amelia a heavy kick in the stomach. Amelia didnt even budge as shey there. Thats enough Jolie, dont hurt her physically for now, no matter what shes still Mrs Ron, Luke said and went to carry Marion from the ground. Jolies frown deepened even more as her hatred for Amelia grew from the soul of her belly into a shady and big tree, She was supposed to be Mrs Ron. Come over here Jolie, lets get your mother to rest upstairsLuke called out to Jolie Marion felt all jelly, she had never humiliated before, and since the day she got married to Luke, she had never suffered such grievances. Only Amelia caused her harm. Marions eyes burn with hatred as she allows Luke to raise her up and Jolie supports her. Call the maids to drag her to the basement and on no ount should any of them give her water or food Luke instructed the butler who had regained some colors on his face after the pain in his stomach subsided a bit. Luke and Jolie helped Marion up while the butler went to get the maids and they carried Amelia to the deserted Basement at the back close to a small garden. The basement has been abandoned for a long time because that was the ce Amelias mother, Hannah used to keep her paintings. After she died, Marion didnt allow anybody to go clean that ce up and left it to be scary at night. Amelia was dropped on the floor of the basement and the butler, who was Marions puppet, locked the doors and sealed the windows from outside. Nothing could go in ore out of the basement. After doing so, He turned on the abandoned old Air conditioner and increased it so that it became cold and bone-chilling inside the basement. After ensuring that everything was as Marion had nned, The butler guard the maids out of the building. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> After concluding the meeting, Alexander walked out of the Meeting room nced at his watch, and realized that it was already noon, He took out his phone and dialed Amelias number. He furrowed his brows as the phone rang but wasnt answered. The number youre trying to call is out of coverage, please leave a message Alexander frowned more and immediately took his coat and walked out of the office. Liam happened toe out from Georges office and saw Alexander. Liam was a Prominent and well seek out Lawyer and he owned Lots of Law firms but nobody knew he was also a king of the night, called Phoenix. He was a slow and cunning mafia, also a member of The Alphas. He sometimeses to meet Alexander and George in Rons headquarter regarding their other business matters. Lady ass, where to?? Liam asked as he saw Alexander hurrying out of the office. I have somewhere to be Alexander said shortly and walked out, Liam entered same elevator as him. Alexander called the man he asked to follow Amelia Whats her status?? Shes still inside, she hasnte out yet, should I infiltrate the ce?? Resolver asked as he looked ahead from the dump truck. You go first, wait for my signal, Alexander said and ended the call, Liam didnt ask him any questions cause he didnt like poking his nose in anybodys issue. The only thing he concerned himself with was the Underworld and his clients. After the elevator opened, Alexander and Liam went separate ways without much expression on their faces. Where’s my wife?! The butler hurried towards Marions bedroom and knocked on the door discreetly. Jolies voice came from the other side Come in The butler opened the door to see Marion on the bed and Jolie sitting on the chair close to the bed. Wheres she?? Marion immediately asked, there was an ice bag ced on her forehead, and she still felt pain there. I followed your instructions, shes been locked in the basement with no source of natural venttion, before turning on the air conditioner, The butler said with an approving smile. Thats good, shes just a pain in the ass, Jolie said with a snort, making a mental note to go visit Amelia and see how she was fairing It will be such a sight that she wouldnt want to miss it a thousand times. If in case Alexanderes to look for her, just say she didnte here Marion instructed seriously, she had to make preparations for the unsightly. Mother dont worry, he wont evene to find her, hes a busy man to care about a cheap slut that was sold to him, Amelia is just a liability on his shoulders so when he discovers that she didnt return home, hell be relieved, he might evene to thank uster Jolie giggled at thest part and then, Ill get the chance to talk to him and hell be so stunned and enchanted by my beauty and body and Shut up Jolie, youre so stupid, Ive always told you to be smart and calctive Marion scolded Jolie and she just pouted her lips in response. Turning to the butler, Marion nodded at him You did well today, Ill send some cash to youter, you go first The butler bowed in glee before leaving. Marion sighed as she stared at Jolie, though Jolie wAs very beautiful she wasnt as smart as she wanted her daughter to be. Take it easy Jolie, Alexander is a renowned figure and a man of his caliber likes modest and well-cultureddies,dies that are well-behaved and bred up Marion reminded Jolie and Jolie nodded in response. And thats why you have to prepare yourself, thats also the reason your father enrolled you in the ssic lessons for socialites Marion added and rested her back on the headboard when her head began to spin again. Take rest now, dont tire yourself out, Jolie said softly and narrowed her eyes a bit at the thought of Amelia. Just then, they heard a bang sound from downstairs and Marion immediately frowned. Soon, voices could be heard, it was so ear piercing to the ears and sharp. Let me go check, wait here, Jolie said, ready to get up when Marion stopped her Im not crippled, lets go together Marion refused to be left out, her subconsciousness felt that something was wrong, she had a bad premonition as she dropped her legs on the ground to wear her shoes and held the ice bag close to her forehead. Mom are you sure you dont want to rest?? Jolie asked again but Marion just waved her hand and they both came down, heading towards where the sound came from. Whats happening here?? You Foo. Lukes voice trailed off as he came from his study and met those cold eyes. He was in his study when he heard the sound so he came down to check, he was scolding the servants whileing down to the living room and was startled to see the man. Sir, Alexander Ron.. ahh wee, wee to my home hehe Luke immediately walked towards a sofa used his bare palm to dust off invincible dust from the chair, and gestured for Alexander to sit on it. Please make yourselffortable! What do I and my household owe this visit?? Luke said while using his side eyes to look for the maids. When he finally saw the butler, he immediately red at him when Alexander wasnt looking, telling the butler toe clean things up. Hehe Mr. Ron, what would you like to have?? Coffee or Tea?? Luke asked flirtatiously which kept a wide smile. Alexander didnt say a word as his frown kept deepening, the woman he was waiting for hadnt arrived yet. His eyes were so cold and piercing as he stared at Luke who was suddenly talking about how his daughter knows how to make tea. Ehh?? Luke was immediately startled by that cold look that was directed at him, he felt his throat run dry. Alexander didnt pay him much heed as he looked upstairs when he heard footstepsing from there. Jolie gasped as her heart pounded heavily in her chest when she locked gazes with Alexander. Alexander looked at her with a sharp gaze before dropping his gaze. Ahe down, we have a distinguished guest, Joliee over here, Luke said while exchanging meaningfully gazes with Marion and Marion immediately pushed her daughter forward. Jolie became aware of what they wanted to do and she blushed slightly but immediatelyposed herself. Dad, Jolie said and walked towards Luke. Good daughter, Greet Mr. Ron Luke instructed with a wide smile. Jolie gazed at Alexander with a shy smile Wee Mr Ron, its nice to meet you again Jolie said. Alexander was still facing the ground, not even paying attention to what Jolie was saying. Okay, Go make some of your delicate Tea for Mr. Ron, its coldtely, go brew some tea for him, Luke said and Jolie immediately agreed. Wee to our household Mr Ron, Marion said and sat close to Luke. Wheres she?? Alexander spoke after a while with steel and cold eyes, as if ready to pounce on Luke anytime. Luke was confused for a while beforeughing a little, Alexander immediately red at him and hisugh stopped in midair. He coughed awkwardly Hmm We dont know who youre referring to but if its Jolie?? Haha, we just instructed her to go make some tea for you, you know shes hardworking and makes lovely and soothing tea, a beauty with everything installed, she has a bright future, ha she is alsopeting for Shut the fuck up, wheres my Wife?? Alexander shouted this time while hitting the ss table close by and it immediately shattered, a broken piece cut his hand. He had lost his patience, he remembered cleared that Amelia was only wearing a small jacket and a thin shirt, it was chilly today. He wondered if she was Cold.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Luke was so scared and Marions face turned as white as a sheet. Jolie immediately gasped in shock and the Tray containing the tea fell from her hand. Didnt Alexander look at her just now?? He didnte for her?? Pay with your lives Where is Amelia?? Better start talking before I lose my patience! Alexander was so infuriated, he was worried sick when he was driving here and he didnt even know how she was feeling now. Luke didnt know how to respond, he hadnt thought if Alexander came to find Amelia, he did things in a moment of impulse. Marion was quick-witted as she said She didnte here, shes your wife so she doesnt live here anymore, you should know her whereabouts Marion tried not to sound unconvincing. She looked towards Jolies direction and signaled her with a meaningful gaze and Jolie immediately understood. Yes Alexander, my sister has always being uncontroble, she might probably be in a bar or something as shecks Any ethics and sense of dignity, Jolie said this time, she wanted to walk closer to Alexander but was too scared to do that. Alexander not only finds them funny but also irritating, his wife in a bar. They must be a fool for trying to deceive him. Alexander didnt waste words on them as he directly grabbed Jolie on the neck. There was a hint of coldness mixed with anger and hatred in his eyes, he pressed hard on jolies neck, purposely choking her. Lukes eyes immediately widened in shock but he couldnt do anything, Marion shouted Mr Ron, let her go, please leave her She was not scared of her husband nor a killer pointing a gun at her head but whenever she faced Alexander, she had to lower her head even subconsciously. That was the depressing suppressing and as well oppressive aura Alexander exuded. People get to bow their heads in fear without them knowing. Jolies eyes were filled with tears as she held onto Alexanders hand, she was having difficulty in breathing. She couldnt even utter aplete sentence to beg for her life. I give you two minutes to start talking before Ipletely choke your small witch of a daughter, to her early death, Alexander said coldly and tightened his grip more. Lukes face paled even more as his leg passed out and he fell to the ground. B-base-basement. shes at the basement at the back. Luke cried out as he was so frightened. Alexander pressed so hard on Jolies throat as he brought his face closer to hers, and gritted out these words. In your entire life, the day you disrespect my wife, that day marks the end of your life, you dont have to believe it, Alexander said those words with venomous eyes before pushing her while releasing his hand on her throat, Jolie hit the ground with her ass and she felt extreme pain there as if she broke a spine. She let out a sharp cry. Marion immediately rushed towards her daughter and hugged her. Luke was so frightened, he had never been so humiliated before in the presence of his servants. The bodyguards, maids, and butler had their heads down in fear, not wanting them to be the next in line. Alexander immediately walked towards the butler who was shaking from head to toe. He was so frightened as he gripped hard on his trouser and he lowered his head while biting his lower lips. You, take me to the basement, Alexander said expressionlessly at the butler who immediately nodded and led the way. Luke only breathed a sigh of relief when Alexander walked out of the room. You arent even a man Luke, your daughter was hurt by a man you are senior to but you cant even do BahhN?velDrama.Org (C) content. A hard p immediatelynded on Marions cheek. You disgusting woman! You caused all this, if it werent for you who brought the idea of us ckmailing Amelia so she can step aside for Jolie, we wouldnt have had to suffer such humiliation Luke was so angry and Marion didnt know where to hold to lessen the pains she was feeling. Either her forehead that was banging that Amelia hit her earlier or her cheek that was pped with blooding out from her mouth. Her eyes were so fierce as she directed her anger to Amelia, it was all her fault that she suffered today. Luke immediately turned to the People If words should get out about what happened here today!! You all will pay for it with your lives Jolie had the urge to snicker at her father, but he still had the cheek to threaten his workers. Hmph Meanwhile, Alexander walked in long strides towards the basement, the butler was running towards the basement with Alex walking behind him in a hurry. His mind felt hazy as he stared at the condition of the small, abandoned building that now serves as the basement. He felt a pang in his heart when he saw the condition of the house, soon his gaze froze more when the butler opened the door. A very cold air blew to his face, his expression was so unsightly when he discovered that the air conditioner was turned on, and it was at its peak. It was already so chilly outside and now, his wife was kept in a cold ce.. He didnt think too much as he hurriedly entered the basement and the hairs on his arm stood up due to too much coldness in the basement. The butler became so paled that he wished the ground should open and swallow him whole. He immediately went to turn off the air conditioner and stood aside. Alexander walked into the basement but there was no source of lighting in the room Go get a touch! Alexander thundered and the butler shuddered as he hurriedly brought out his phone with shaky hands and turned on the torch pad in his phone and the room was a bit light up. Alexander searched everywhere until his gaze fell on a girl that was all curled up like a ball close to a box, she looked disheveled and pale. Amelia had woken up from the drug earlier but couldnt find a way out as the room was dark and so cold, she had no choice but to roll towards a box and fold into a ball. It was cold in there, she had thought that Alexander woulde for her but guessed she was wrong. Alexander frowned immediately as he felt his throat got stuffed with an indescribable feeling, he felt sympathetic towards Amelia as he walked towards her to carry her. He must pay the Robertson family a visit for this. Amelia slowly opened her eyes but her gaze was so hazy and blurry that she couldnt see the face clearly, she thought she was hallucinating. This couldnt be Alexander, right?? Way of displaying love Amelia couldnt keep up anymore as she fell unconscious again. Alexanders expression was unsightly as he carried Amelia out of the basement. The butler had his head down as Alexander walked past him and a gush of wind blew along as Alexander walked towards the Maybach he drove in.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Alexander carefully dropped Amelia in the back seat and Soon, Luke came running towards them. Sir Ron, please dont get angry, ha its that useless woman who kept My Amelia dear inside the basement, I had no idea, dont worry, Ill make her reflect on herself and teach her some manners you know we are.. Luke trailed off as Alexander drove away. Shit That damn woman, were doomed now Lukes face turned from purple to ash, he was so scared of one day that Alexanderes back to bite them. Meanwhile, as Alexander drove out from thepound, the dump truck also drove away but in a different direction. Alexander didnt have the time to pay any attention to Resolver as he drove to the hospital. Soon, he entered the citys hospital rushed down from the drivers seat, and went to the back seat to bring Amelia out but he heard some whispers and he leaned onto her curled self and paid more attention to what she was saying. You all left me, you promised me not to go Amelia kept muttering those words with a pained expression, both eyes tightly closed as she folded on the seat. She looked like a maltreated Kitten that was thrown out on the street by its owner. Alexanders veins pop out on his forehead, he was both angry at her family and to himself, he could have followed his intuition and gone with her, and she wouldnt have been so scared. Alexander pulled off his coat and wrapped Amelia with it, she was so small. She always acted fierce and strong on the outside but inside, she was so fragile. Shed suffered a lot and he made a promise to himself never to let her suffer such grievances. He didnt know why he wanted to protect her all of a sudden and he didnt want to know, cause no matter what, it hurt his pride. Alexander thought that if anybody hurt his wife, it was also daring him. He was a Don and not some Church rat that people stepped on, so he concluded that he was helping Amelia because of his pride. With that sorted, he carried Amelia in a princess style and closed the door, just then, the nurses in charge brought out a stretcher and he ced Amelia on it and they rode her to the VIP ward. Soon, Mr Walker, his private doctor rushed in to attend to Amelia. Mr Walker was a man in his early forties a professional doctor in his field and very skilled. After checking her pulse with his stethoscope, he sighed and looked at Alexander who was sitting on a stool close to the bed. She was running a temperature when I brought her in, is she sick?? Alexander asked when the doctor looked at him. Not really, she isnt sick of a fever, just some momentum cold, Ill prescribe a medicine for you to give her to help stabilize her body temperature The doctor beckoned for the nurse close by and told her some things which the nurse jolted down on her notepad. Soon Mr walker felt Amelias hand and then ced his hand on her stomach and then felt something was off. Alexander wasnt so good at this field so he just looked on. Mr walker slightly moved Amelia, who was still unconscious, Mr. Walker held onto her shirt, ready to pull it and Alexander frowned. Whats in there?? Alexander asked and stood up from the stool. Mr walker knew Amelia was Alexanders wife so he tried not to get mad at him as he gestured for Alexander to open her shirt himself. Alexander didnt mean to doubt his doctor, just that he said that at the moment. No, you do it Alexander cleared his throat in embarrassment, why was he getting all worked up when another man touched the helm of her shirt?? Mr Walker didnt say anything and just turned to see Amelias back and lift the shirt a bit and he frowned slightly. Alexander stretched his head and saw a sharp cut on Amelias back, it still looked fresh. Thats to say. she got injured in her fathers house. Alexander made a tight fist in fury What a wound! this was either done by a sharp object like ss Hmm Mr walker took some cotton wool and alcohol to disinfect the wounds. Because of the tingling sensation, Amelia groaned and some opened her eyes. It hurts Amelia turned to see her back getting disinfected by a man. Be careful Alexander said to Doctor Walker and he didnt say anything and just continued damping the wound. Amelia looked at Alexander who was sitting on the side, alexander gave her a sharp look of disapproval and she bit her lips. She had thought he wouldnte for her, a sweet feeling flowed in the depth of her heart but she didnt linger in it as the cut was tingling. After disinfecting it, the doctor bandaged the wound and gave Alexander a small bottle Here, this is a medicine, you should apply on the wound when you get home, it shouldnt leave a scar Mr Walker soon left the ward after saying that Amelia could go home that day. Alexander just hummed and was about to walk out of the room, when Amelia called out. Hey, leaving already?? Amelia asked as she felt a bit guilty for stressing Alexander with her problems, she didnt want him meddling in her affairs. And she felt stupid for even wanting him to meddle in it. Not yet, I have to go do something, Ill be back in a jiffy, Alexander said with a neutral expression and left the ward. A few minutester, Amelia and Alexander walked out of the hospital with her wearing Alexanders coat. She looked so funny with the coat on, she had initially refused the coat but Alexander scolded her to be obedient and wear the coat, and now everyone at the reception kept looking at her with weird gazes. Amelia looked at the coat that was below her toes, before raising her head to see Alexander staring at her with a grin. You are so evil, I dont want the coat anymore, Amelia said and was about to pull off the coat in the reception area, she didnt feelfortable with everybodys gaze on her, and Alex was alsoughing at her though he hid it. Seeing that Amelia was about to take off his coat, Alexander immediately stood in front of her and held the two sides of the coat before cing it in one hand. After sessfully holding onto the cor, Amelia was caught in the middle, as Alexander dragged her out of the reception with the coat on her. Amelia felt frustrated as she heard people whispering. Is that some way of disying love?? By bonding the woman in his coat and dragging her out?? Thats so romantic, I wished to be wrapped in a big coat as well And the guy?? So handsome My ideal type of girl, so cute Well shaped breast Amelia snorted, there was nothing like love, its an embarrassment. Alexander dragged her out by the cor of the coats and Amelia had no choice but to go along.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Amelia wore the coat properly after Alexander let go of the coat, she sat on the passengers seat and Alexander drove out of the hospital and headed towards Easternnd. Soon, alexander alighted from the car and Amelia got down as well. Alexander held her hand and dragged her into the house, Amelia was confused by his sudden gesture. Whats with you?? Im not dead yet, let go! Amelia said as she walked into the house. I know you are not dead, but would have been dead if I didnte on time Alex retorted as he continued to walk to the living room. I would have still looked for a way out if you didnt show up Amelia defended not wanting to look like she depended on Alexander. So the way youre talking about is curling up close to a box and waiting for your death huh?? Alexander snorted and they continued upstairs. Not necessarily, anyway. Im fine Amelia said Alexander dragged her along and soon went to the door of his room, Amelias eyes widened in shock. She wasntfortable entering a mans room especially when he had specifically told her not to dare near the doorstep. Without further ado, Alex let go of her hand and Amelia sighed. She was overthinking again, of course, he wouldnt let her in but should she just stand there?? She was about to turn around and go to her room when Alexander got hold of her wrist. This time he had sessfully opened his room door and dragged her in. Amelia was stunned that Alexander personally took her into his room. The room was weird. Amelia had to admit, she had pictured Alexanders room as a ck-colored room or Bright red, lots of horror looking paintings on the walls, and a dark mncholy-looking room. Since she wasnt allowed to enter the room, she started imagining things based on Alexanders status and temperament. But the room wasnt at all what she had imagined, it was all white and had a big bed covered in red sheets and a duvet. There was no such painting as horror, it was a bit surprising that there were no pictures of Alexander in the room, only a frame that had a spelling of ALPHA written in calligraphy style. It was a beautiful picture. Amelia took in details of the room as she stood close to a table in the room. Seat.. Alexander instructed as he made his way to the closet there. Amelia sat on a couch and watched Alex bring out a first aid box. Alexander saw that Amelia was sitting on the couch, he dropped the box on the bed and walked towards Amelia. He bent close to her and said: e to the bed Amelias eyes widened in shock Wha-what?? Are you a jerk?? Alexander pped her forehead lightly You sure do have perverted ideas filled up in your small skull Amelias face turned red in embarrassment and Alexander chuckled seeing her face that was so red. This woman! Alexander took her hand and raised her from the couch and sat her on the bed. Stay still let me treat the wound, Alexander said and sat at the back of her, with her back to his view. Take off your shirt, Alexander said as he opened the box, ready to treat her wound. Dont worry, give me the medicine, I can treat it myself Amelia said with certainty Then how are you gonna reach your back?? Just shut up and take off your shirt I can treat the wound myself Yeah, I believe you can do it thats why You got injured in the first ce, just keep quiet youngdy, Alexander said sarcastically Amelia was about to argue when her bra was suddenly unhooked. Amelia frowned and quickly held onto her chest area, she didnt know when Alexander reached for the hook of her bra. Amelia just sighed, he was her husband anyway, and he was helping her. Close your eyes, Im about to take off my shirt Amelia instructed and Alex just scoff Whats there to see thats so amusing?? Just take it off Alexander said and waited patiently, his gaze couldnt help but roam around her back which was so white and silky. Amelia rolled her eyes before putting her hand under her shirt took off her ck bra and pulled off her shirt. Her back was opened to Alexanders eyes and he squinted his eyes at her injury. Amelia used her shirt to cover her breast and hummed at Alexander to treat the wound. Alexander first removed the bandage and cleaned the surface of the wound with wool. Mrs Gale came up to deliver the towels Alexander had instructed her to bring when he was still at the hospital. She knocked on the door and Amelia froze a bit in nervousness. What are you nervous about?? Arent we a married couple?? Alexander said close to her ear, her back to him. Mrs Gale blushed as she started getting ideas of what they were doing inside. Was Master preparing to be a father soon?? Mrs Gale, keep the towels on the floor close to the door Alexander called out and focused on Amelias injury. Mrs Gale dropped the towel on the ground, the towels were on a tray so they wont get dirty. And soon she left quietly. Shut up, Amelia said to Alexander as she was embarrassed. Alexander smirked without taking offense, he was already used to her and her weird behaviors. Soon he cleaned the wounds properly and applied the medicine on the cut before bandaging the wounds. Amelia let out slights groaning sounds in the process. After bandaging the cut, Alexander said: this is what you called fine! Amelia didnt say a word and still sat on the bed Youre one hell of a character, now tell me.. what happened that you ended up in that abandoned basement?? Alexander asked while curling his lips in fury when he remembered how she was a few minutes ago. First, turn around so I can wear my shirt back on, Amelia said Ive already seen your breast when you pulled off the shirt earlier, Alexander said as a matter of fact, he had indeed seen a part of her breast earlier. Amelia was about to say something when Alexander beat her to it And dont you even dare call me a pervert cause it was a coincidence, not that you have a fine and well-shaped breast, so dont get ahead of yourself Amelia immediately frowned You- you are dating someone for crying out loud, a faithful partner does not look at any other girls breast Amelia scoffed at Alexander, she seriously pitied the girlfriend now. Alexander looked like a man who cheated. An invitation card Hmm and who am I dating?? Alexander asked feeling rather confused. Amelia just scoffed at him wanna deny it?? Then suite yourself, just turn around so I can wear my shirt Alexander didnt think about it and turned around for her to wear her shirt. After she was done, she recounted all that happened at her fathers house. Youre such a big fish yunno Amelia grinned at Alexander whose face were covered in a mist of anger. So Amelia got hurt because of him?? He ruffled his hair a bit before crunching down close to Amelia. Im sorry you had to pass through those pains because of me, He said sincerely not even aware that his voice had turned hoarse. Amelia justughed it off Cmon its not you okay?? Marion and Jolie are always so scheming and full of ideas Amelia said as she prepared to get up but she winced a bit. Be careful Amy Alexander said not even knowing that he had he had dropped some formalities. Its no big deal, I have to go take some rest now, we have to go to the office tomorrow, Amelia said and Alexander nodded in response. Alexander watched as Amelia walked out of his room slowly, he was gritting his teeth in hatred towards that girl called Jolie. Soon he took out his phone and called Resolver Where are you?? Help me deal with something After instructing Resolver on what to do, Alexander ended the call and went to take a bath. Meanwhile, Amelia also went to shower and aftering out of the bathroom, her face were all red, she had difficulty in bathing because she didnt want water to soak the bandage so she ended up wiping herself clean with a towel. After dressing up, she rxed on the bed, and soon, her phone rang and saw that George was calling, she raised a brow and answered the iing call. Hello Hey sister-inw, sorry for disturbing you, George said from the other side No, no, not at all, thank you for your help earlier Amelia thanked him foring to her rescue at the office earlier, he was the first person to help her as Alexander went to meet his girlfriend. Ah I must defend my sister inw, I wanted to ask, I just got information that youll start working in Rons headquarters from tomorrow, George said Umm yeah, thats true No wonder George trailed off as if thinking Whats no wonder?? Amelia asked feeling confused. Alexander sure is something else, he drove his assistant to the entertainment center so you could be with him 24/7, and thats so sweet, George said with a cheeky smile. Amelia was startled at that No thats not it, he said his assistant was assigned to go check something out in the subsidiarypany Thats bullshit, I dont know why but he suddenly told his assistant to go work at the entertainment center and he shut down the assistants office close to his and I heard. youll be sharing the same office with him, right???!! George said with a sly grin Amelia immediately fixed the puzzles, alexander had told her that it was an early decision for her toe to the office and that she had to share the same office with him, she didnt think of the past assistant. Which office had the former assistant upied before getting transferred?? He must have his or her own office, alexander cant just say that he also shared the same office with the assistant. Thats too ridiculous. Why did he lie to her?? Why would be lie to me about it?? Amelia asked instead after knowing the truth. Simple hes scared of you meeting any mishaps, even if you were to stay in the assistants office, his mind wouldnt be at ease, yunno about this knights issue, so hes being cautious, George saidN?velDrama.Org (C) content. So he wants you to be in his line of sight to be able to rest well George added. Ooh Amelia was confused though, he had done so much for her but he wouldnt say, but why was he so kind all of a sudden?? Okay that is it, wee in advance sister-inw, George said and directly ended the call before She could tell him not to call her sister-inw again. Amelia sighed as she was confused, he had gone to so much length to protect her. But she didnt think much about it again after a while and slept off, it was almost evening time. Meanwhile, in Alexanders bedroom, he sat there operating on his system, so immersed in his work when his phone rang. The name Ash was disyed on the screen. Alexander frowned a bit before taking the call and ced it close to his ear. Say Alex just spitted out as his eyes didnt leave the screen of hisptop. Ash bit her lip a bit, her greatest wish was for Alexander to slowly warm up to her even if it was a little. I just wanted to let you know that Ill be resuming office tomorrow. Im so bored in the hotel and again. if you have any ce in mind thats for sale, please buy for me, I cant continue staying in the hotel Ash said Alexander raised a brow thought you said you wanted to rx a bit Ash smiled a bit, at least he still cared to remember that Oh yeah, that was the initial n but you know Im not the type to bezy around, doing nothing, I want to work Ash said as a matter of fact Alexander agreed with that I know, youre really diligent in your work, your marriage partner will be so proud of you Alexander said as his fingers danced on the keyboard of hisptop. Ash immediately rejoiced in her heart that Alexanderplimented her Sure, that man will be so lucky to have me, he will be getting married to a gem so Id just say, hees to get me fast before I change my mind ash said meaningfully but alexander didnt even think too much of it as he thought it was just a simple remark. Yeah, the man will be lucky as not all women these days want to work for their money, but it seems like youve already found a man from your words Yes, of course, I have a man in mind already and hes so handsome and powerful Ash giggled slightly and Alexander just shrugged Congrattions to you, when its time, send me an invitation card to your wedding, Alexander said, he had always wanted the best for Ash as she was his friend right from college days. You wont be needing it by then, Ash said again and thought: Cause you will be the groom. As if remembering something, Alexander stopped typing on theptop and said: Mhm, and that I forgot to tell you, my bad.. I just got married a few weeks ago I don’t like the smell of cigarettes Ash felt as if something had fallen on her head as her head began to ache.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. You-you.. Alexander thought that the news of his marriage would probably shock anyone who knew him, so he thought Ash was not excluded Yeah, it just happened. I didnt tell you about it sooner.. sorry Alexander said softly Ashs eyes constricted How can you get married?? Why? Alexander frowned a bit at her question but felt that it was said out of shock Long story, okay I have to go now Alexander said and hung up. All the colors on Ashs face drained as her head kept banging. He got married?? To who?? Whos she?? When?? where?? How??!!! Lots of question marks filled Ashs head as she gripped her phone so tight that it made a creaky sound Argh Ash threw her phone across the room in fury but so lucky for the phone, itnded on the couch before it hit the ground. It cant be, not anymore stepped down for Hry, Im not going to back out this time, Never! Ash was in turmoil as she went to search for her phone again and saw it on the couch. She took the phone and dialed Georges phone number, if she was to ask Liam, that would be a bad idea as she would guess Liams reaction. Dont ask me! That would be Liams words so she decided to call George, at least she and George were closer amongst the others. Soon the call went through and Georges voice came from the other side Hey Hey George, its being long Ash tried to maintain a neutral tone as she held her waist. Yeah, you left us all George joked as he entered his living room and met an empty room, his wife had gone for a walk around the neighborhood with some guards. Well Im back in the country you see, Ill be officially starting work at Rons headquarter and well be work buddies again, Ash said slowly Wow congrattions on that, Ill treat you to a meal at the office, when are you resuming work?? Umm, tomorrow morning Ash replied and sat on the edge of her bed. Oh okay.. Is there something you wanna tell me?? Ash decided to test the water and asked indirectly. George didnt have anything more to say so he replied in a negative Nah Are you sure?? George frowned a bit Whats with the weird questioning, if you have anything to say, just spill it already George said, he wasnt that kid Ash used to y with, they were friends but now, he was married and shouldnt be wasting his time on this shits. Ash immediately got the message and cleared her throat I just found out that Alexander got married and nobody cared to tell me about it, thats too unfair! Ash saidzily not giving any expression George immediately understood and became guilty So sorry about that, it happened so quick that I actually forgot, Im sorry Whys everybody saying it just happened so quickly?? Ash asked with a frown George didnt hide anything from Ash cause they were all friends so he told her the situation. Oh so its just an arranged marriage, she was sold to Alex?? Wow, Ash said meaningfully as she smiled a bit. At least theres no love and She still has the chance to Be with Alex in the future. Yeah such a pitiful girl, but well I wont call her pitiful as shes so smart and screwed, I like her personality, George said after a while with an approving look. Ash had the urge to snort, shes just a girl that was sold to a man, therefore she doesnt hold a candle to her level, she cantpare to her that was well educated. Uh, yeah thats nice Ashughed a bit in a hint of mockery. After talking for a while, George disconnected the call and Ash dropped the phone on the bed with a profound smile Guess I was just worried for nothing! Ah sold?? Alexander wont even pay her much attention, he likes ssic women from wealthy families, shes not even an opponent Ash said to herself before breaking into a loud and sinisterugh. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Easternnd. When it was time for dinner, Mrs. Gale went to call Alexander toe down for dinner, alexander immediately walked out and passed through Amelias room. He stopped before walking towards the door and opened it, Amelia was still asleep so he entered the room and closed the door behind him. He looked at her for a while and checked her temperature by cing the back of his hand on her forehead. She was fine as the doctor said. He looked at her more and studied her face. Her face was so small with plump lips so pink, and a sharp and small edgy nose. She was so slim and bony. Alexander frowned at that, she had to eat more. Just then, Amelias eyes suddenly opened catching Alexander off guard that he took a step back. Whats the problem, whyre you here?? Amelia asked as she stretched her arms that was aching her a bit. Alexander put his two hands to his back and said calmly I came to check if youre still running temperature, but since youre okay, Im out of here Oh and why do you care anyway?? Amelia asked and got off the bed. Alexander raised a brow at her Cause I dont want a corpse in my house Amelia scoffed at him without saying anything. Alexander looked at her for a while before turning to the door and said Dinner is served,e downstairs to eat With that said, he walked out of the room. Amelia went to wash her face before going down, she saw alexander already at the dining hall, seated on a chair. Amelia walked towards him and saw that he had a pack of cigarettes in his hand. She didnt think much of it and sat down, she looked up again and saw that Alexander took out a cigarette from the pack ced it in his mouth, and brought a lighter to light it up. Amelia immediately frowned and got up from her chair and directly took the cigarette from his mouth and broke it in two before going to dump it in the recycle bin close by. Alexander was stunned as he watched her movements, soon she sat back down again and gave Alexander a disapproving look. Dont ever smoke again cause its not good for your health and I dont like the smell of cigarettes Amelia chided him like a small boy. You’re ruining my mood Youre bing so daring these days! Alexander said with a displeased expression. And then what?? You cant suffocate me! Amelia retorted and faced her meal. Alexander suddenly lost the pleasure of smoking as he dropped the cigarette pack on the table and took his fork to eat. Tomorrow youll be starting officially, anything you dont understand let me know, and Ill put you through, Alexander said and drank water from the cup. Amelia stiffened a bit when she remembered what George told her earlier, she looked at Alexander who already started eating, and sighed regretfully. She didnt want to get addicted to him and always rely on him to solve her problems, if their contract expires in six months, shell be so doomed cause she might have already turnedzy and dependent on Alexander for everything. She gripped her spoon tightly, she wanted to tell Alexander not to help her always but the words failed toe out. I-um-you see-Mhm Alexander raised a brow at Amelia before frowning a bit Sorry-I forgot Amelia was confused, what does he mean by he forgot?? Was he aware that she wanted him to stop helping her, she hadnt even said it yet! Alexander dropped his spoon and took his phone and Amelia furrowed her brows. You didnt even hear me out! Do you know what I was going to say?? Amelia asked but Alexander kept operating his phone.N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Dont worry-Id Okay done, check your phone Alexander dropped his phone and continued eating without much expression. Amelia frowned and soon, her phone vibrated due to a new notification. She grabbed her phone and saw that she had just been credited by Alexander. Eight hundred thousand dors?? The heck! What for?? Amelia asked as she dropped her phone, she was so happy about the money though but she still asked anyway. Alexander looked at her in utter confusion Isnt that what you wanted to remind me of a while ago?? Amelia frowned slightly not getting his point. For the contract! I was supposed to send you the money yesterday but I totally forgot, so there it is Alexander said and swallowed a ball of smushed rice. Oh? That Yesterday made it a month since they got married. Amelia thought as she nodded in understanding Thank you anyways! I mean.. for this She said and continued her food while Alex just hummed and continued his food in silence. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The next morning, Amelia quickly freshened up and got dressed in a red above-the-knee skirt and white short sleeve matched with Red heels and a white bag. She let her hair down that was below her shoulders and perked some silver-looking pins on the side of her hair. She gave a girly and youthful vibe in that outfit. After staring at herself in the mirror, she put on some eye shadows topliment her smooth face. Satisfied with the result, she walked out of her room, she was about to walk downstairs when she groaned and pped her forehead. So forgetful, whats going on with me today?? Arghh Amelia entered her room again to take her notepad, she put it in her bag and took herptop, She discovered that there werent anyptops for her in the office so she decided to bring hers. She was more efficient in usingptops than the office system. After taking what she needed, she passed through the mirror again and winked at herself beforeing down. Alexander soon came downstairs and they both ate breakfast together, done with breakfast, they walked out and Alexander had this stunned look in his eyes before it immediately disappeared. He must confess, that Amelia was truly a beauty. He didnt think much about it and went towards his car and opened the door for Amelia. Amelia sat on the car with pouting lips, obviously displeased at something. Alexander raised a brow at her expression but didnt bother to ask her what made her like that, he went to the other side and sat down too, soon the driver came in and started the car and they drove out of thepound. The journey was silent throughout as the duo was so immersed with theirptops. Alexander made several calls as his finger danced along with the keyboard on hisptop. Amelia was typing away on herptop but her face was so solemn and Alexander gazed at her from time to time. Whats the matter with you today?? When Alexander couldnt take it anymore, he asked Amelia why she was frowning. And whats your business about my expression?? Let it be, its my businessAmelia scoffed Youre ruining my mood with that frown of yours and Im notfortable with that, it makes the air around here, stench, Alexander said as a matter of fact and Amelia gazed up at him. Its my frown yunno?? Amelia said depressingly. And so?? Its my car! Alexander said as a matter of fact and the driver felt like face palming his face, his master was clueless when it came to dealing with women, cant he see that she was angry at something?? Hmph Forget about it Amelia said and just dropped the matter, why was she so dumb?? She almost pped her head. Why did she even think that he wouldpliment her??. Alexander found her so weird as he returned his gaze to hisptop to continue working. Amelia looked at him again and Alexander caught her looking at him and she immediately lowered her head. Alexander raised a brow at her childishness, he was now kinda intrigued by her. Amelias face flushed after getting caught by Alexander when she was staring at him. She zed outside but she still felt that Alexander was looking at her. She scoffed and wanted toin that he shouldnt look at her, she hurriedly turn her head to face him when she gasped. She didnt know when Alexander had leaned in her direction, his face was just a few miles from her. With any more movement, their lips could smash together, their nose were almost touching each others. Amelias breath inched and her heartbeat started racing at an uncontroble pace, what was wrong with the Air conditioners?? Whys the car so hot?? Alexander just Stared straight at her eyes before tracing his eyes down to her lips, he noticed that she was so stiff all over. She was always acting fierce towards him so he was amazed how he could make her breath hitch. A pleasant smile slowly spread on his lip as he was delighted. Masquerade Ball Seeing Alexanders smile, Amelia immediately came back to her senses as she pushed Alexander away from her and he let out a chuckle. You look so beautiful today! Whats the secret?? Alexander said as he sat back down and Amelia flushed red.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. She couldnt believe she could be so enchanted by his gaze, he was so evil! She made a vow to keep her distance from him so she wont probably lose her sanity. Oh my goodness. Theres no secret, Ive always been good-looking! Amelia said after a while. Seems like youve finally caught your breath after getting all breathless because of my charms Alexander teased with a smirk on his lip, for some reason, he was satisfied that he had something over Amelia. It was so fulfilling! Alexander liked that feeling as he turned to look at Amelia again but she just gave him a hard re. He let out a softugh as he watched her little face turn red due to anger, she was so cute. He liked that expression but decided not to tease her anymore. He rxed his back on the chair after a while, his smile had suddenly dropped as he thought of how he was getting so attached to Amelia already. She wasnt so bad she was more thoughtful and intelligent than most girls he had seen, Hry wasnt as half as smart as Amelia. Hry was calm, cute, and always liked to get pampered by him but Amelia??. Wait! Was heparing them both again?? Alexander shook his head and gave Amelia a side nce, she was surfing through the inte with a serious expression. She wasnt at all petty nor relied on him. She was self-made and relied on herself, and he really admired her courage. Alexander sighed a bit, so lost in thoughts, and very soon, they reached the building the car went directly to the CEOs garage and Alexander came out, he directly walked to the other side, which was unlike him. He opened the car door for Amelia and she was startled. What-whats your deal this time around?? You being nice to me this time doesnt mean Im gonna let you go Amelia said as she closed herptop and stared at Alexander who was holding the door for her. Alexander smirked a bit and came closer to her and she instinctively adjusted herself backwards. Im curious..! What are you gonna do?? Alexander asked with an amused smile. This woman was something. Amelia stuck out her tongue at him and said I wont say it now, if I tell you, I wont get much pleasure if you arent shocked by what Im gonna do Amelia scoffed at him and Alexander showed a surprised expression Oh, Im so scared! Alexander said as he shrieked back a bit Amelia knew he was teasing her again and she just snarled at him before jumping down from the car and Alex took a step back. Alexander walked behind Amelia as they headed to the elevator but Amelia quickly turned to face him and pointed her index finger at him And you donte close to me, were separate people who have nothing to do with each other in the office Alexander used his index finger to poke her index finger that she was pointing at his chest, Amelia looked at her index finger before looking at Alexander again. We have nothing to do with each other anyways so why stress yourself? Alexander saidzily and poked her forehead Dummy!! Amelia blinked for a while We-we have nothing to do with each other?? Alexander walked past her as a profound smile emerged on his lips. Amelia was still muttering to herself that Alexander said they had nothing to do with each other. Wait seriously?? Amelia turned to run to the elevator before the door closed. Alexander looked at her for a while and Amelia didnt say anything, she just stood there. Dont let it stress you, we have something to do with each other, were a couple Alexander said seriously and Amelia scoffed loudly which made Alexander wrinkle his face. Whats with the snorting?? Do you intend to go marry another man?? Alexander asked immediately displeased. Shut up, not that, after six months, were done and Im surely gonna get married, Im not a wood you know, Amelia said not noticing Alexanders ghastly expression. Getting married my foot Alexander muttered and Amelia looked at him. Did you say something?? Amelia asked as she had heard a mumble. Alexander didnt say a word but his angry expression remained and just then the elevator opened and they both walked out. As they walked out, George immediately came from his office and when he saw Alexander, he walked towards them in hurried strides, Amelia excused Herself and walked away first for them to discuss their matters. Alexander went to Georges office to discuss while Amelia directly went to Alexanders office, he had given her the keys earlier when he followed George. Alexander, do you still remember that Mr Whackers Masquerade ball will be held this evening?? George asked and Alexander hummed Why did you ept to go?? He wants you to bring a female partner George said And why are you worried on my behalf?? Im not worried Alexander said without further ado. George gazed at him for a while with the urge to punch him Even if youre fine, can you quarantine Ashs safety?? Alexander immediately frowned as he looked at George And whats my deal with Ash?? Ehh?? George suddenly look as if he just swallowed shit as he was confused. Whos gonna be your partner for the ball if not Ash?? George asked You both have always attended events like this together and besides shes more exposed, I got information that Knight would be there too and with his puppet, Grey. Alexander scoffed a bit, it was true that he had always taken ash to such events as his partner after he and Hry broke up but now: Im taking Amelia with me, I want her to know how the system works, I want her to understand my world, Alexander said as he narrowed his eyes In case things turn out bad, I want her to be aware of a knight so she wont find him unfamiliar when hees to her Alexander added and thought that it was also part of the contract. Amelia is already a smart girl and can take in the details easily, no wonder his father bought her of all girls from the other wealthy men. Shes more like a man at heart. Evicted Meanwhile, Amelia unlocked the door and entered the office, she noticed that there was a mini office in Alexanders office, was that her office now?? It was covered in transparent ss that can be seen through. Amelia happily went to the mini office and dropped herptop and bag, she checked and saw that everything she might need was already there. Alexander helped her this time so she decided to be nice to him so she went to the electric boiler and made a Cappino. After making the cup of coffee, she ced it on Alexanders table and went to her desk when her phone rang and an unknown number was calling, she grabbed her phone and answered the call.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Hello? Good day, is this Mrs Amelia Ron?? A mans voice came from the other side and Amelia wrinkled her face. Only a few people knew her with that identity as Ron, this person And?? Amelia asked skeptically and the man suddenly chuckled a bit. Mhm sorry my bad, Im Sam by name, Mr. Alexanders former assistant before you took over Temporarily Amelia immediately corrected and the man replied: Yes, temporarily, Ill send you some contacts of those Mr Ron has business dealings with and Ill send you his schedules from time to time, Sam said from the other side. Amelia had thought of this earlier, she had wanted to ask Alexander when hees back, She had wondered how she would help him with his schedules and all that an assistant should do. Well thanks Sam, I was having problems with that Amelia admitted. You dont need to thank me maam, Mr. Ron asked me to put you through so if theres anything you dont understand, just call my number, Sam said sincerely Ah, this man! Hes at it again Okay then, Amelia said and Sam ended the call. Amelia gazed at her phone for a while before a wide smile quickly spread on her lips. She was appreciative of everything Alexander had done for her. Just then, the door opened and Alexander walked in and their eyes met. Alexander nodded at her before walking to his chair, his eyes sparkled a bit when he saw the cup of cappino. He immediately grabbed the cup with those thin and slender fingers, sat on the chair with crossed legs, and took a small sip from the coffee. Amelia walked towards him with a small smile. How did you know I love to drink cappino each morning at the office?? Alexander asked and dropped the coffee. Instinct! Like it?? Amelia asked Hmm Alexander hummed approvingly Youre good at almost everything you do Alexander praised and looked up to see her expression, but he was disappointed when he didnt see her blush like the people of her gender do. Instead of blushing or tucking her hair at the back of her ear shyly, she instead frowns. Alexander was really confused, what kind of substance was she made of?? So unpredictable. I know, thats already a fact Amelia answered as she kept a frowning face, not wanting to give Alexander the impression that he could make her lose herself but within her she was all giddy. Such narcissistic Alexander muttered and took a sip again You have a meeting with The board members in about an hour time, get ready for that. Sir Amelia stretched out thest part. Alexander hummed again before finishing the whole coffee with a in expression. After saying her piece, Amelia was about to go to her seat when her phone dinged and she walked a few steps away from Alexander and took out her phone to check the notification. It was a notification from Weibo, She tapped into the notification and saw a headline that immediately caught her attention. Jolie Robertsons eviction from the years Socialite winning awards Beauty Jolie Robertson#evicted from #Socialite awards ceremony Amelia frowned a bit to check the contents, it only states that Jolie was evicted from the Show by the higher-ups. Lots of questions came from the public but none were answered and that made Amelia suspect a foul y. Jolie was one of the leading and most beautiful women in the country, with the potential to win, so the higher ups cant just evict her from the show unless they had to do it with the influence of someone powerful Amelia immediately turns to Alexander. Him! Amelia faced Palm as she thought of how Marion and Lukes face should have turned grim by now. Amelia sighed and walked towards Alexander again and he looked up at her innocently. I guess you know what Im here for! Amelia could tell by his look that he was aware that she might have already seen the news. Alexander blinked at her twice and she was speechless, was this still the cold Alexander she knew?? Why was he suddenly acting cute?? Just spill it! You did it right?? Amelia said trying to reconfirm. Are you mad?? Alexander asked softly with hoarseness in his tone and Amelia softened a bit and swallowed a mouthful of air. Dont do things for me, Alex, its not worthwhile while and besides, let me manage them myself Amelia said and Alexander sighed before resting his back on the chair, for some reason, he couldnt agree with that. Am Iining?? To be frank. I dont like how they treat you, even if this. Alexander pursed for a while as he swallowed hard Even if this isnt real, you are my wife and nobody dares to disrespect you Alexander said as a matter of fact and Amelia was stunned by his words. Wh-why Alexander?? Its Amelia couldntplete her sentence as she felt her chest tightened up. No more questions, I do what I do cause I feel like it Alexander added, not wanting to entertain any of her questions. That was also one of the puzzles he couldnt fix too, why was he helping her?? Amelia gripped her notepad and Alexander got up from his seat and went to meet her, he ced his hand on her shoulder gently and Amelia looked up at him. Let me do things for you, I wontin, wanna know why?? Alexander asked and Amelia nodded.. Because. Smoke and die by my hands Because I also made a promise to support you the very day you did the same at the warehouse and besides, I cant watch you suffer without giving you a helping hand Alexander said slowly as he watched her changed expressions. Amelia was happy, confused, and feeling all sorts of emotions at the same time and most of the emotions, she couldnt figure out. Just then, she let out a soft chuckle Are you this generous to everyone?? Alexander removed the hand he ced on her shoulder and made a straight back with both hands in his trouser pockets. Nah Im not that generous to just anyone, just to few persons, Alexander said beforending his eyes on her again. Amelia nodded in understanding Oh, thats Cool Alexander watched her before shaking his head Whats so cool about it?? Its cause you.. Just when she was about to say her reasons, a knock came on the door, Amelia thought that it might be some staff like the managers so she wanted to flee first. Alexander held her arm and she looked at him in astonishment with a gaze that said, whats your problem this time?? Say what you wanted to talk about, Alexander said and looked at her closely. Amelia looked at the door and then Alexander, she gestured for Alexander to bring his head down to her level. Alexander found it very funny, he, Alexander Ron, A mafia Lord, should bow his head for her to whisper into?? That was so unheard of, nobody had ever told him so, not even Hry, she was so respective of his status but it seemed this little wife of his was a No-No. Even after thinking all this, Alexander still brought his head down to her level and Amelia used her small hand to hold his head and dragged it forcefully towards her mouth. Alexander was surprised at how brazen she was, was she even afraid of him?? Amelia brought her lips close to his ear Somebody is at the door, it might be your.. Just then again, the person knocked on the door at that got Amelia so startled that she removed her mouth from close to Alexanders ear but still holding his head, alexander tinted his head to look at her. Alexander was so close to her face, she was staring at the door and he was looking at her side profile in a close range, he sniffed her cheek and Amelia turned to see his face close to hers and she immediately pushed his head and Alexander took two step back and Amelias eyes were so wide and she red at him and muttered a pervert at him, Alex read her lips and his face made a frown. The knock came again and Amelia had the urge to frown, why was this person so persistent in life?? Life isnt worth it dear. Amelia went to Alexanders table took the empty cup of coffee and went to her mini office just then, Alex said a Come in When the door opened, Amelia was arranging the cups at the side while Alexander stood close to his shelf. Alex! A small and cute voice came from the side that got Amelias attention. Amelia stared at the girl in ck trouser and white sleeves with curly hair. Amelia raised a brow at Alexander was still standing close to the shelf, he sure do have weird friends, now theres a she. Were at the office, Formalities Alexander said coldly, Amelia had already spoilt his mood so he wasnt giving face to anyone. Ouch Amelia muttered that as she pitied the girl, She and alexander had just finished. Finished what?? They were talking without any formalities as if they were at home, isnt this girl close to Alex ?? Then why did the girl first address him as Alex without his surname?? Ash immediately adjusted her mood, she hadnt noticed the third person in the office, she just felt a bit aggrieved but immediately concealed it because she was used to this system already. Alexander walked to his chair and sat and gestured for Ash to seat. Amelia entered her office and Ash took a seat opposite Alexander. So Mrs Ash Moon, youve officially started today?? Hows the adjustments?? Alexander said as his eyes roamed around, obviously looking for something. Amelia frowned and stared at Ash, shes the ash?? Alexanders girlfriend?? The one he went to meet the other day that he left her! Then why does Alexander treat her a bit distance?? Or maybe its because of them being at the office! That must be it! Its going well, though I have problems settling in, but can we drop formalities for a while?? And there came a cold No! From Alexander that Amelia immediately pouted her lips at ash. Such a pitiful girlfriend! How could she afford to date a stone-looking and reserved guy like Alexander?? Amelia suddenly became intrigued at the ash as a part of her startedparing herself with ash, she wasnt have a good feeling about this ash of a girl. Just for a while! Ash said softly and Alexander gave her a cold re. Youre already taking too much time so just say what you want and go! Alexander was in a bad mood and Ash immediately got that. Amelia just shook her head and looked at Alexander. Okay, I just wanted to invite you to a meal with George and the others, Ash said and Amelia had a new impression of her. Pessimistic and headstrong. Amelia suddenly remembered that Alexander has a masquerade ball to attend that evening and now his girlfriend was inviting him for a meal, she was about to get up from her seat and remind him, that he shouldnt be blinded by his love for Mrs ash and abandon his work. Im noting, Ive got something important to do, Alex said and Amelia sat on her chair again in relief. She didnt know why she was relieved, if she didnt know about the ball she would have thought she was relieved that Alexander refused to go. Ash was startled and she made a tight fist, hes still hard towards her. Just then, Alexander finally found his cigarette packs he took one out, and ced it in his mouth. Forgetting about formalities, Ash said Come on alexander, Ive told you repeatedly not to smoke, its not good She said that while sitting down and Alexander raised a brow at her. She was so noisy. Alexander was about to light his cigarette and Ash had already given up as she rested her back on the chair sayingOne or two is good, dont smoke too muchThis content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Alexander brought the lighter close and lit it when he noticed a piercing gaze on him, he subconsciously turn to look in Amelias direction. Amelia was holding a file and pointing it in his direction with a tight re, so fierce as her veins popped out in her forehead, while muttering Smoke and die by my hand! Personal Matters From Work Matters Alexander didnt know what to do with his little wife, why was she always ring at him at every point??. Amelia brought two of her fingers to her lips and removed an invisible thing from her lips while looking at Alexander as if gesturing for him to remove the cigarette from his lips. Alexanders eyes dimmed a bit and he dropped the lighter before dropping the cigarette on his lips, He sighed and sat on the chair, he swerved the chair that was facing Amelias mini office. Amelia didnt pay him any attention anymore as she started typing on herptop. Alexander zed at his watch before looking at the focused Amelia. Ash felt that something was wrong as she noticed that Alexander only dropped the cigarette after looking in a particr direction and now he was sitting, facing that same direction. Ash traced his line of sight and she was stunned to see a mini office in the office. And there sat a youngdy, Ash raised a brow at her but couldnt see her face. Amelia was searching for her jotter that she had kept in the locker. Ash tried to see her face but Amelia had her back to her. Ash turned to Alexander and asked, Whos she?? A secretary or assistant cant possibly share the same office with the CEO, especially a person like Alexander Ron. It was so unheard of and rming. Even when she was Alexanders secretary back in the US, her office was outside the CEOs office, she only came in when she had an important message to pass or tell him about his schedules. Thisdy isnt simple. When Ash didnt get a response, she looked at Alexander again, He was so focused on thedy. His gaze never left her. Alexander, whos.. Youve overstayed your wee, get going already Alexander said while still looking in Amelias direction, wondering what she was looking for. Ashs face immediately flushed in embarrassment, she gritted her teeth and made a tight fist, what has she not done to be worthy of Alexanders love?? Why was he treating her this way?? Ash was so aggrieved that she dug her nails into her palm and it immediately left a cut on her palm. Alexander felt that Ash was still there, so he turned to face her Want to disobey my words?? I said Out! With that shout, Amelia turned towards their direction and Ash got up from her seat, Ash turned towards Amelia and they both looked at each other in the eyes. Ash had a ring nostril as she looked at Amelia and Amelia just raised her browzily at Ash condescendingly with an expression of, who the fuck are you. Ash gritted her teeth and bowed to Alex Im sorry if I disturbed you, dont get mad at me okay? Ash said pitifully Its just that its been long since we both met and I havent had the time to talk with you Im sorry if my presence ruined your mood Alexanders eyes flickered, as he began to regret why he shouted at her. He cleared his throat and softened his voice No, its not your fault, Im just kinda stressed, dont worry, Ill see what I can do about dinner with you sometime With that, Ashs expression brightened up a bit, at least she still had something over him that he couldnt resist lowering his voice at her. Okay then, Ill be leaving now Sir Ash added and turned to walk out with a victorious smile, she shed a meaningful smile at Amelia and Amelia felt the urge to Puke on her face. To Amelia, Ash looked like a woman with twelve faces.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Amelias mood was immediately ruined for some reason and she didnt want to talk to Alexander but she had no choice but to go remind him that he had a meeting a few minutester. She didnt want to go meet him, She turned to look at Alexander, and he was staring in her direction, when their eyes met, Alexander shed Amelia a small smile and Amelia just pouted her lips and turned her face away. Alexander wanted to tease her a bit but she wasnt paying him any attention. Soon his tel rang and he looked at Amelia, he answered and Amelias voice came from the other side. Sir you have a meeting in three minutes with the directors and the staff that are going to do some presentations today at the board meeting hall, Amelia said, more professional as she sat with a straight back. She waited for an okay or good from Alexander but he didnt say anything, she raised a brow, wasnt she clear enough?? Sir can you hear me?? Amelia asked with a stern voice this time, she wasnt having any of it. Amelia turned to look at Alexander, he was staring straight at her, but what got her angry was that he wasnt holding or cing the tel to his ear. He He freaking dropped the tel on the table without hearing her out! Isnt this part of witchcraft??. Alexander shrugged at Amelia and Amelia felt blood rush to her head, why was he always stressing her out?? Did he take pleasure in doing so?? Alexander made a hand gesture at Amelia toe meet him, Amelia dropped the tel but didnt say anything. Alexander swirled his chair facing the door, with his side profile at Amelia, as if saying, Ive said my piece. Amelia breathed in a mouthful of air and got up from her chair while reminding herself, I am a professional I am a professional and keep personal matters from work matters. She wasnt supposed to be angry that he agreed to go on a dinner with his girlfriend, right?? She was the nobody and the stranger, meanwhile, Ash was the real deal, his girlfriend. Amelia sighed and walked towards Alexander and stood in front of his table. Amelia maintained a neutral expression and said Sir, I just wanted to remind you that you have a meeting now Amelia stood there and Alexander looked up at her but she was looking in every direction except his face. Alexander furrowed his brows Look at me! Amelia frowned and gazed up at him with a vexed expression Sir you have a meeting to attend Alexander remained calm as he looked at Amelia Cancel the meeting Amelia was stunned The directors might probably be in the meeting room already, theyre all waiting for you I said to cancel it, I have somewhere to be, Alexander said and got up from his table And you areing with me Uh?? Causing Unnecessary Drama Amelia watched as Alexander walked towards her. I have to attend a ball this evening and youreing with me, Alexander said and Amelia only nodded a bit. Wait, what?? Im going to a ball with you?? Its only noon and youre leaving the office already?? You havent even done anything much today, I dont agree! Amelia said as she looked up at Alexander. Alexander stared at her for a while You suddenly start to nag more than my mom Im not nagging at you, just. Lets go Alexander held her arm and dragged her out of the office. When they came out, Amelia withdrew her arm from Alexanders grip. They both walked out of the office silently headed downstairs and went into the car. Along the way, Amelia just fiddled with her nails while Alexander worked with hisptop. Amy.. Alexander suddenly called out and Amelia turned towards him with raised brows.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Sir.. Amelia responded and Alex shed her a displeased look Drop the formalities, were not at the office But its still working hours and besides, the ball is also part of an official duty, Amelia said as a matter of fact and Alexander dropped hisptop. This is not part of an official duty Im taking you to the hall as not just my partner but also my wife. Whats wrong with a husband taking his wife to a party?? Alexander asked nonchntly as he leaned onto Amelia with a flirty grin on his lip. Amelia looked at him as she roamed her eyes on his face Whats gotten into youtely?? You now act weird, get your ugly face off my face! Amelia hushed him and used her finger to push his forehead. Alexander pouted slowly as he watched Amelia poke his forehead, what was he even turning to? Amelia eyed Alex and he immediately rposed himself and sat back with a clear expression. Amelia sighed in relief that he had finallye back to his real self. At the ball today, Dont go roaming about, Its not a simple ball party, Alexander said before turning to look at Amelia. Not a simple ball?? Whats up with it? Amelia asked immediately intrigued as she leaned on Alexanders side a bit. Its a ball held by a mafia, Mr whacker is a very shrewd and dangerous man and as well very cunning, I also found out that, My mortal enemy will being as well, Alexander said seriously not wanting to take chances. I dont think Mr whacker is an ally, if he was, he wouldnt invite someone that is your foe to his party Amelia reasoned and Alexander smirked a bit. Mr whacker is neither on my side nor on My enemys side, Alexander said hes one of the founding founders of Mafia gangs in Europe, hes almost on par with my dad Alexander analyzed and Amelia immediately understood. Then, Mr whacker isnt harmful or Helpful. Be well of A man named Knight Cyrus! Hes so sly and approachable Alexander said before frowning slightly and pointing at Amelia Dont go around letting men talk to you, therell be a lot of them at the ball Amelia rolled her eyes at Him Im not as spoilt rotten as you are Amelia defended herself. Im just saying that because you ma troubles wherever you go, its you, not me, Alexander said and Amelia didnt have anything to say to him and just faced the window with a: Whatever! Soon the car arrived at the Mall and the driver parked the car at the garage and Amelia immediately got down. Soon enough, A man in a suit rushed towards her along with a few female staff. Amelia wanted to run away but she still stood there, wanting to hear them out. Mrs. Ron wee to our Mall.. Gesturing to the female staff, the man said They will be your guide today Amelia only nodded. What an extravagant life! Soon, Alexander got down from the car held Amelias waist, and led her towards the mall. Amelia was so stiff as she felt his hands roamed around her waist. Could you keep your hand in one spot?? Amelia couldnt help but whisper to Alexander and he just smirked and held her waist more firmly and pressed hard on it and Amelia almost let out a Goodness Gracious After getting to the mall, Alexander sat in the dressing room, operating on his phone. Amelia let the staff take her to the rows of Clothes, they were of different brands and styles. Maam This dress was newly imported from Singapore, its a new brand from Channel, and the colorpliments your fair skin A staff brought out a Red Dress that had a slit. Amelia sure had a weird taste for clothes so she had a hard time choosing the ones she liked. She always had oneint about the clothes or another but the staff remained patient with her as she was an important person and the wife of a respected Man. They had seen and been with people who are very picky but at least, Amelia didnt stress them as shell just say she didnt like the clothes instead of badmouthing them. Amelia was walking along the rows with the staff when a voice called out from the back. Ah speak of the devil, what a coincidence A voice came from the back and Amelia didnt need a soothsayer to tell her that this person was Jolie. Amelia turned to face Jolie with a nonchnt smile on her face. Yeah, such an unfortunate coincidence, Amelia said as she gave the ck dress with her to one of the staff. Jolie snarled at Amelia Unfortunately huh? Scared that Id reveal your financial status?? Even if youre married to Alexander Ron, youre still nothing to him, just a material to roam around in hispound, tell me, what cheap clothes have youe to buy?? Maybe I can as well pay for you Jolie said while fluttering her bank card between her fingers. Amelia had a profound smile on without wavering or crying because she was sold to Alex or felt humiliated. I seriously like your strong will Amelia said slowly as she crossed both hands on her chest. Oh Jolie scoffed at Amelia in contempt. Yeah, cause if I were in your shoes, I mean if I was to be the one evicted from the socialite winning awards, I would have probably be indoors, not leeching around to cause unnecessary drama, Amelia saidzily with that smile on and Jolies face immediately flushed. The staff looked at Jolie with even more disdain,ing to cause trouble for their VIP. You- even if its just an eviction, its not the end of the world and besides, I still have more cash than you do, youre nothingpared to me, Jolie said. I bet you cant even afford that dress! Feed your hands to the dogs for lunch Please madam, dont cause trouble here! A staff said and Jolie immediately red at her And who the hell are you?? Im a regr here and I have a membership card, one word ofint from me about you, youre doomed Jolie threatened and the staff had a dreaded look on as she struck backward. What? Scared?? Jolie snorted before facing the others. If you know better, youll leave this leech ande take my orders, Jolie said Jolie, Id advise you to stop fooling around Amelia was already fed up with Jolies immaturity. Jolie snorted at herStaff, I want that dress with her Amelia frowned deeply, that was the ck dress she had chosen for the ball. You dare Amelia groaned at Jolie and Jolie felt funny You cant afford it, then let those who can buy it, have it, still wanna save your pride by making the mall experience a lose, Jolie said and made her way to collect the dress when a staff blocked her way. The dress has already being chosen, madam just choose something else, The staff said respectfully and Jolie got so angry. Wheres the manager, go get him here, I want to speak with him The man who hade to get Amelia at the garage was the supervisor and the manager was a man who liked to flirt with The female staff so they were reluctant to call him over. Just then, the manager came to the scene Whats going on here?? Are you girls so ipetent to deal with customers the manager barked at the staff Is this how your mall works?? Letting all manner of people in?? Jolie immediately faced the manager who was in histe 40s Ah Miss Robertson, please dont get angry at my staff, just tell me what you want.. the manager turned to the staff Quickly, apologize to her, dont you know she spends at least $2000 in our mall at the end of the month?? Quickly apologize The manager urged the staff and Jolie buffed out her chest in pride. I dont want their apologies, I want that woman out of here, she is a pauper and cant afford that dress, I want that dress, Jolie said pointing at Amelia, and that attracted some people in the mall. I dont know why people get the cheek toe to such an expensive mall without having the funds to pay their bills She should just give the dress to who can afford it So stupid of her to over-rate herself Mockery came from the crowds and Jolie was delighted that they were on her side. Amelia didnt care about their talks as she faced the manager I liked the dress and took it first The manager just couldnt afford to lose a big customer like Jolie for a small customer and on top of that, she happens to be unable to pay for the dress. Madam, just hand over the clothes to Miss Jolie and go look for something cheaper that you can afford, the manager said with utter disgust in his eyes. Thedies amongst the crowd were all whispering amongst themselves but their voices were loud enough for Amelia to hear them. Whose daughter is this?? So shameful! Theres nothing cheap in this mall, Id advise she go get a dress from the roadsides, heres not for people of her low ss Amelia nced at the manager with a cold gaze and the staff wanted to speak up for Amelia Sir she came.. Doris tried to exin Shut up! Do you want to go against me?? Then fine, youre fired! The manager said and the staff named, Doris immediately shook vigorously in fright. Amelia looked at Doris with aforting smile and Doris was caught in a web of believing or disbelieving Amelia. What if I can afford the dress Amelia asked as she took the dress from the staff. Dont be so ridiculous, this cost fifty thousand dors, you cant afford that so stop embarrassing yourself and just get lost Jolie said with contempt, wanting to mislead the crowds minds. The manager was so annoyed at Amelia What means are you gonna pay up?? Amelia didnt have her card with her but she wasnt at all panicked as she said slowly I dont have any cash on me and my bank card.. I left it at the office The manager held his forehead in frustration as a resoundingugh came from the crowd. Jolie shook her head as she immediately felt proud, any opportunity to ridicule Amelia, she was gonna use it to the fullest. What does she think this mall is?? A charity home for the less privileged?? Haha, a woman said from the crowd and other peopleughed along with her. Came to buy clothes empty-handed, who was she waiting for to help pay up?? An angel from heaven? If I was in her shoes, Id just bow and run out of the mall in embarrassment Surprising enough, shes just standing there like a statue without the least shame on her face, I envy how shameless she can be Tsk. tsk The staff with Amelia looked at her, if they hadnt seen Her with Mr. Ron earlier, they would have doubted her but they didnt as they stood there. The manager immediately beckoned for the security men around Get her out of here, youre such a nuisance the manager said as he barked at Amelia Amelia stood there unfazed as she looked at the manager Are you sure you arent making any mistakes??.. pointing at Jolie, Amelia said She should be the one to leave and not me Jolie walked towards Amelia and was about to give her a hard p on the cheek when Amelia held her wrist with bloodshot eyes. You dare! In your entire life, if you ever raise your hands to my face, Ill make sure to feed that hand to the dogs for lunch Amelia said and tightened the pressure on Jolies wrist. Jolie winced in pain as her eyes reddened Youre such a bully, Amelia, just let go of my hands The crowds hatred for Amelia grew as they watched on, some even wished toe up and beat Amelia. Such a big bully Truly, a poor man is an angry man Shes not only a liar, a fraud and a broke ass but also a bully, Mannerless. Hmph Jolie felt that it was worth it for Amelia to grab her hands, its not going to kill but Amelia ends up gaining a stained reputation. Please hold onto it more! Jolie thought with a hidden smile but still maintained a pained expression. People began to curse at Amelia but she didnt give a damn and twisted Jolies wrist and it immediately dislocated and Jolie let out an anguish Cry. This was so painful for Jolie who had never lifted a bucket, it was like dying from a fire.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Freezed Account The pain was too severe for Jolie to bear. After sessfully dislocating Jolies wrist, Amelia let go and the securities rushed in. The managers face was as white as sheets as he stared at Jolie who had a paled face. Go get her now, you fools! The manager barked at the security men but Amelia gave them a frightening and bone-chilling re and they were stupefied for a moment. Dont you daree an inch close to me Amelia said as she held the dress. The crowds were all feeling funny as they watched Amelias disy. The manager was about to rush and p Amelia but he remembered what happened to Jolie and stood in ce but rather poured out his frustrations on the guards ipetent morons, get her immediately and take her to the police station for Assault and harassment now! The manager turned towards Jolie who was so sweaty as she held onto her dislocated wrist. Lets get you to the hospital miss, well cover the bills, The manager said to Jolie and Jolie shook her head. I want to see her enter the police van before I leave, shes such a mess, Jolie said. Amelie scoffed Cant believe you hate me to the point of refusing treatment because you wanna see me in the polices custody! ah, what if your hands turn rotten before then?? Amelia asked amusingly. The security guard walked towards Amelia Would you like to walk out yourself or we drag you out?? Jolie snarled at Amelia If I were you, worry about your image before thinking of my wrist With that, the manager shouted at the security men for the umpteenth time. Ancient fools, get her already before she escapes A finger on her skin and youre all dead meats A cold Voice came from the back and the manager had a bad premonition as he turned to see where the voice came from. The crowds stared at the goding their way in long strides but still walking in grace and majestically without a single w in his steps, so well refined. Amelia nced up at Alexander with dimmed eyes. Sir Ron, look what Amelia did, she dislocated my arms, shes such a bad woman and a snake, I want justice. Jolie immediately walked towards Alexander with a pitiful gaze. Alexander just walked past her and went to meet Amelia Are you okay?? Who dared to disrespect you, tell me Alexander took Amelias hands and inspected her all over. He was so angry when he heard the managers-words earlier, he had being waiting for Amelia toe to the dressing room for a long time but there werent any signs of hering so he decided toe get her when he met this scene. Jolie was so angry that she bit her lips so tears could form more Alexander, I was the one hurt but youre asking her, please help me get justice As your what, huh?? Alexander coldly asked as he turned to face Jolie who was stunned by his response. Who didnt know Alexander and his temperament? All the females had heard of how shrewd and cunning Alexander could be, his matter was always on the lips of their husbands. Their husbands were always talking about Alexander Ron, the business tycoon whom they wanted to ally with but hadnt been able to. They couldnt afford to offend Alexander now so they decided to stay out of the matter. The managers face was already so paled for some reason as his legs threatened to pass out. Amelia raised a brow at the manager, whats with the big reactions? Sir sir- Jolie couldnt say a word as she looked at Alexander. Okay then, whoever can pay for the dress gets it, why not go pay for the dress?? If you can afford it, then its yours Alexander said after a while and Amelia looked up at him, wanting to say that she got the dress first and that was the dress she loved. She seriously regretted leaving her bank card at the office, it was all due to Alexander hurrying her toe over to the mall. Jolie smiled a bit as she sniffed in her snot Okay She was d that Alexander wasnt blinded by Amelia and chose to help her out.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Amelia fixed her gaze on Alexander, though she was regretting it a part of her still trusted Alexander, he must be up to something. Amelia nced at Alexander again and tucked at his sleeve and he looked down at her with aforting gaze, his eyes were filled with emotions she couldnt describe. Maybe she was seeing wrong. The manager regained his wits again when he saw that Alexander wasnt against the woman he protected. Go get the machine so she can make payment! The manager said to the staff who immediately went to bring it and Jolie handed over her bank card. Jolie showed Amelia a victorious smile but Amelia just snorted at her. The staff ced Jolies bank card in the Shopify POS machine and waited for the response. Maam its a decline, the staff said What?? How?? Check it again, that cant be! Jolie said and the crowd was immediately intrigued The staff ced the card again but it was still a decline Maam, it shows Theres not enough cash for the dress Jolies face immediately reddened in embarrassment Give me Jolie was about to stretch her hand to get the Pos when she felt a sharp pain on her wrist. She had truly dislocated this wrist, she red at Amelia in disdain and let the staff show her the result. Thats not possible, I have money in there, Jolie said lowly and brought out her phone to call Her bank manager. What?? Cant pay up? Alexander asked with utter disdain and Jolie was so embarrassed as she dialed her managers number. Whats going on with my ount?? Jolie asked in frustration as she let out her anger in her. Miss Robertson, your ount has been frozen and all your cash has been withdrawn, The manager said The heck! How can someone suddenly withdraw my money without my consent?? Jolie asked and the manager said: Your father withdrew the money After hearing that, Jolie immediately end the call with a red face. The crowds snorted at Jolie She has been talking since but she also cant afford the dress What an eye opener, so Shameless Shes even more shameless and disgusting, at least the other girl didnt belittle anyone, shes been the one causing trouble Jolies face reddened in embarrassment as she heard those words. Doubling My Debts Thats her, go get her here Mr. Luke Robertsons voice rang out from the doorway and his guards immediately rushed towards Jolie and held her hand. Luke angrily walked towards Jolie and gave her a tight p. You unfilial and stupid daughter, how can you cause trouble with your sister in the mall?? You are so stupid Luke said and turned towards the crowd. Please dont mind my stupid and immature daughter, shes so stupid at times, Ill make sure I teach her a good lesson, Luke said and immediately gestured for the Guards to carry Jolie out. Dad youre humiliating me! Dont do this! get your hands off me Jolie screamed as she hit the guards on the back, they carried her on the shoulder and walked away. Mr. Luke walked towards Alexander with a guilty face Im sorry for any trouble Jolie might have caused you, Im sincerely sorry Luke said with a small smile Dont apologize to me, Apologize to my wife Alexander seemed to have said world-creaking news and all the people at the mall gasped in shock. They had disrespected and belittled Alexanders wife. Some females gasped while some covered their mouths in horror. They all looked at Amelia in astonishment and Amelia felt the urge the cry, this was supposed to be a secret! It was true, If this youngdy was Alexanders wife then, she didnt need to go around with cash or a Card. She was a multi-billionaires wife. Lukes face turned red as he thought of how Alexander wanted him to apologize to Amelia. He was surely going to vent his anger on Marion and Jolie when he got home. Luke promised himself as he gritted his teeth and said to Amelia: Amelia dear, you wont get mad right?? You should understand that your sister is not as smart as you, shes dumb Luke said but Amelia didnt bother with him. Seeing that his little wife was feeling disturbed, Alexander waved Luke off impatiently. Amelias mind was calcting so fast, Jolie was so proud and sure just a few minutes ago, thats to say, she had the money but now, suddenly her ount was frozen and her father who always indulged her, withdrew all her money and even humiliated Her. Amelia zed at Alexander after drawing her conclusions, He was at it again. Amelias eyes turned red in appreciation and she was so touched. Tears brimmed in her clear eyes. Alexander looked at her and noticed her red eyes, he frowned as he held her shoulders Whats wrong?? Whyre you Alexander felt rmed as he held Amelias shoulders. Amelia was just looking at him with no words to say, for the umpteenth time he wasing to her aide again. Alexander thought that the manager was the one who displeased her so he immediately turned towards the manager. The managers legs were already so weak as he stammered Boss-Big Boss.. Alexanders expression froze icy cold as he red at him Such imprudence and guts you have to make my wife displeased, You are hereby fired! I dont want you anywhere close to my Mall Alexander said and turned towards Doris who was standing close to Amelia From now on, youll take over as the managerAll content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Doris eyes widened in shock as she immediately bowed to Alexander Thank you sir for your generosity, Ill do my best Turning to the stiff Amelia, she said Thank you, Mrs Ron The other staff that went along with Amelia were all happy that they didnt leave Amelia else they might have faced Alexanders wrath. The managers leg immediately weakened Im sorry sir, I was ignorant and failed to recognize madam, Im sincerely sorry Mr. Ron, please give me another chance Alexander raised a brow in contempt Another chance?? The manager immediately nodded with a pained face. I dont think I have any chance to give you! Im out of it Alexander said and gestured for the security men to Take the manager out. The security men were lucky that they hadnt done or said anything hurtful to Alexanders wife, they thanked their stars. They didnt waste any time as they dragged The manager away, the manager had always been feeling on top as he always rained abuses on them. It was revenge time! Please. The manager screamed out as he was dragged away. Doris was quick-witted as she went to wrap the dress for Amelia and gave the bag to one of the staff to take it along with them but Amelia took the bag by herself, not wanting to disturb their work. She walked out first with Alexander behind her. The women kept quiet all through and only breathed a sigh of relief when Alexander walked past them. But he didnt forget to give them a hard re. Jesus, I cant afford to be cklisted in this mall, else Im out of the social cycle A woman eximed What a world, Ive learnt my lessons not to belittle anyone ever again The women said and walked away in their different directions to get the clothes and other essories of their choice. The mall regained its quietness and healthy environment again. Meanwhile, Alexander caught up with Amelia who had been silent from the mall to the garage. Alexander gestured for the driver to leave first, he walked towards Amelia who was already sitting in the car. Alexander opened the door that led to Amelias side and she was shocked, she thought Alexander wanted to sit so she tried to adjust to the other side but Alexander quickly held her hand. Cmon, whats your deal this time around?? Alexander said impatiently and Amelia wrinkled her brows utterly displeased. She was easily displeased at some things. Alexander sighed as he softened his tone And asked Hey talk to me, Whats wrong? Amelia looked up at him at a loss for words. They were in a tight space as Alexander was outside, standing close to the door and Amelia was sitting just close to him. Alex-I-i dont feelfortable with you helping me always, its like doubling my debts, I dont know how to repay you if someday you ask for something in return, Amelia said as she bowed her head before raising it again. But her voice creaked a bit. I know I sometimes act tough but what Jolie said was all true, I dont have the funds so just save your money and dont stress yourself with my matters, I cant repay you, Amelia said but didnt get any reply from Alexander so she looked up. Come on, say something! Amelia urged Alexander but he just remained silent. Angry, Right?? Who’s Your Patner? Alexander looked at Amelia with an unknown emotion while Amelia looked up at him. Alexander flicked her forehead and said, Dummy, its my duty as your husband to protect you, but I want you to repay me though.. Amelia sighed as she scratched her hair a bit Huh how do you like to get repaid then?? Alexander used his index finger to raise her chin to look him in the eyes, alexander said: I want you to be my Partner in the ball.. Alexander said almost in a whisper as if he was begging her to ept him. Amelia was dumbfounded for a while as she searched Alexanders gaze. Oh-Okay I can do that, Amelia said and Alexander breathed out a sigh of relief. Okay, now cheer up Alexander said with a small smile and Amelia immediately touched the edge of his noseAll content is ? N0velDrama.Org. You did that right?? No denying it Alexander raised his hands in surrender and Amelia gazed at him for a while before saying with a small voice Dont let me get sozy and keep relying on you for things Alexander pitched her cheek a bit Silly, rely on me and Im gonna let you fall and you might end up hitting your head on a concrete wall Alexander teased and Ameliaughed a bit Thats why Im never gonna take your help seriously, Amelia said as she adjusted her skirt. Really??Alexander stressed his statement amusingly and Amelia nodded. Uh huh! Alexander just smirked and stared at Amelia for a while as he thought of whenst he everughed heartily. He was always a workaholic when he was with Hry, he didnt have much time for their rtionship but he still loved her deeply. When he came across Amelia, he just wanted to run from work ande back home to spend the day with her. Whats this?? He couldnt understand as he left the thoughts for another day. He closed the door and gestured for the driver toe in and he walked to the other side and entered the car. Since we got the dress, are you returning to the office?? Amelia asked and Alex shook his head. No, I have to go drop you off in Easternnd, Before heading to the warehouse, My goods just arrived and I have to inspect them, Alexander said calmly and Amelia immediately understood what he meant by Goods Alexander furrowed his brows Say, tell me your real thoughts, are youfortable with me being a Mafia?? You must think Im a bad person, arent you scared I might do something to you?? Everyone knows Im so heartless and evil Amelia just looked outside the window without answering his questions. Yunno my mom died because she viewed my dad as a generous and kind loving man just as People have painted him to be, she judged him based on what people say about him, Amelia said slowly, still looking at the window And that cost her, her life Amelia let out a smallugh that had Mockery in it I dont judge you, the world is now ruled and controlled by those in power, its either you kill or get killed Turning to face Alexander, Amelia said If you were evil and heartless, I wouldnt be here today with myplete legs, I know I cause trouble a lot which is a reason for you to have disabled my legs. I view you from my perspective Alex and Im not the least scared of you! Amelia snorted at Alexander Ill tell you a secret Alexander wrinkled his brow at her Whats that?? Amelia chuckled and gestured for Alexander toe closer and he did so skeptically and leaned on Amelia and Amelia held his head for the second time today. Alexander wasnt expecting anything less as he let her hold his head I have this strong attractiveness towards Handsome men so Im not scared of you Amelia whispered into his ear and Alexander immediately stiffened all over. He felt a tickling sensation on his chest as his stomach twirled in excitement. A smile threatened toe out but he tried to suppress it, making him look so funny. Amelia pushed his head and looked at the window again. Alexander grumbled You always push me away after getting what you want Amelia nced at him and showed an innocent expression before looking at the window again. Alexander didnt say anything more and just rxed on the chair and enjoyed the ride home. After dropping Amelia at the mansion, the driver immediately drove out from thepound again. Amelia walked into the house with the bag containing the dress, she was so shy about what she said to Alexander earlier. But it was true though, She had always liked any handsome guy. Meanwhile, Alexander went to the warehouse to inspect his newly brought weapons. Elliot, what about the deal with Shark Spare?? Alexander asked obviously in a bright mood. Master, all his orders have been arranged, ready for export! Elliot immediately reported back Youre doing a wonderful job, Elliot, youll get a reward of fifty thousand dors, Alexander said as his eyes roamed around the warehouse Elliot was happy but maintained a calm face as he bowed Thank you for your generosity Master Elliot could feel the rear glow from his master. After checking everything and handling some matters at the warehouse, it was about 4 pm so Alexander went back to Easternnd. The driver immediately parked at the garage and Alexander walked out when his phone rang. He gazed at his phone before answering it Hello Ashs voice came from the other end I didnt see you at the office, are you also attending the ball this evening?? Ash asked and that got alexander raising his brows questionably. And how did youe to know about the ball?? Alexander asked Well you know, Your father is not the only one known by Mr. Whacker, hes my dads acquaintance so he invited our family but Ill be the one attending instead of my dad whos on a business trip, Ash said as she bite her lips nervously before saying I guess its still both of us going there as partners right?? No! Alexander said without any hostility as he walked towards the mansion. Ash was confused, she has being and always have tagged along with Alexander as his partner whenever they were going to such ces but now, why?? I already have a partner.. Alexander said as he walked into the living room to see Amelia sitting in the room with his panther-looking dog. Ash didnt quite get what Alexander meant by already having a partner. Ash began to have ideas about this partner but she asked to be sure Who-Whos this partner?? Alexander walked towards Amelia who was eating a chip from a bowl with steady steps. Too many questions, well its my Wife, satisfied?? Okay then see you in a few minutes Alexander said and removed the phone from his ear and came to meet Amelia who was chewing the chips in her mouth. Amelia looked up at him as she kept eating the chips but she still remembered to say Wee back Alexander dragged on his tie and stood in front of Amelia and suddenly held her head and started caressing it. Amelia frowned as she kept looking at him with an expression of Whats wrong with this guy again?? Sharing My Wife With My Dog Can you get your hands off my head?? Amelia asked while looking at him but Alexander just chuckled before letting go of her head. Amelia frowned as she got up to help Alexander with his tie and he just stood there and let Amelia do it. After helping Alexander remove his tie, Amelia sat back down to eat her chips. The panther walked towards Amelia and sat beside her leg and that made Alexander frown. Seems like you now have this guy at your side huh Alexander said as he gazed down at the dog. Amelia chuckled a bit before bending to ruffle The dogs head hes such a good guy Amelia smiled cheerfully and the dog waggled his tail at Amelia in pleasure as hey on the ground with his belly down. He was currently enjoying his time. Alexander gritted his teeth a he saw his dog closing his eyes due to the pleasure of getting rubbed on the back by his wife. Seriously this isnt right! Alexanderined as he looked at Amelia with a solemn face. Amelia had a confused look Whats not right?? Youre touching another guy in the presence of your husband! This can also be considered Cheating! Alex said as he red at the dog and the dog who was always scared of him, suddenly bared his fangs at Alexander. That got Alexander immediately displeased, had Amelia corrupt his dog to be like her that wasnt afraid of him??. You cant possibly be jealous of your dog right?? Amelia asked with uncertainty. She was even wondering why Alexander had suddenly turned Sft with her which was unlike him. Has he perhaps fallen for her?? Oh Shut up Amelia! Amelia immediately chided herself for thatmement, Alexander was in a serious rtionship (though she didnt know how serious it was), and Alexander looked like a man who was upright so he couldnt possibly cheat on Ash Moon. And besides, she was way out of his league for him to notice her, she couldnt add to his wealth so just forget about it. Maybe hes just being nice, thats all. Alexander made a killing gesture to his dog but it just did the worst by getting up and licked Amelias face and Amelia giggled though she felt cringed. Amelia held the dogs head while rubbing its back. Alexander was so vexed Amy have I ever kissed your cheek, why let this ugly dog lick your cheek??Alexander wasnt happy about it. Amelia eyed Alexander before saying you cant even kiss me on the cheek because you are off the market Amelia said as a matter of fact as she felt the dogs ears that were covered in fur. We seriously need to talk now, whats with the off-the-market stuff youre always talking about?? Alexander suddenly brought the topic up as he sat on the same chair as Amelia, alexander didnt forget to push the dog to the ground with a re as if saying: Cant you see I wanna talk to my wife?? The dog looked angry as he sat on the ground with a sorrowful expression and Amelia red at Alexander before facing the dog Aww, hes so cute and looks hurt.. Amelia picked the dog from the ground again and rubbed its stomach. The dog felt so pleasant as hey on Ameliasp, it was big though but still looked cute, the dog looked at Alexander and if it could talk, it would have challenged Alexander. Alexanders veins popped up in his head, he seriously needs to kill this dog. The dog gave Alexander a gaze that was saying; Im the real deal anyway.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Alexander looked at Amelia who was paying attention to the dog, he wanted to get spoilt by her too. Why was she so focused on the dog??! Alexander nudged Amelias shoulder and she turned to face him when she saw that weird look on his face. He looked hurt and she narrowed her eyes at him with a confused face Whats the problem?? Amelia asked as she stopped rubbing the dogs fur but the dog groaned a bit to remind her that he was still waiting for her touch. Amelia started rubbing its back and Alexanders frown was so deep. Amelia drop this damn dog, Alexander said and Amelia frowned again Its not a damn dog! I love him Amelia defended the dog, and she seemed displeased with what Alexander said. Alexander suddenly felt wronged you-you dont even give me as much attention as you give him, its so unfair you know Still, Amelia didnt buy that as she red at Alexander The days you didnte home, he kept mepany so dont ever belittle it, hes my little lover Alexanders eyshes twitched when he remembered the days he wasnting home due to the arrangement to capture Lorenzo Go. It was because of work, I didnt mean that and besides, Im here already! Alexander said Drop the dog Amelia shook her head and the dog stared at Alexander in displeasure, his master shouldnt kill his moment. Alexander stared at Amelia for a while, does he have to share his wife with his dog now?? We were saying something earlier right?? Alexander reminded Amelia and she turned to look at him Whats that?? Amelia asked instead Alexander sighed Lets go upstairs to talk If its about what you asked earlier, let it be, I dont feel like talking about it Amelia didnt want to talk about Alexanders girlfriend so she wouldnt look jealous or stuff, it was his matter. Alexander frowned a bit but didnt say anything and just respected her decision. Your stylist will be here soon, its almost time for the ball, Alexander said and got up from the chair before heading upstairs. Amelia could immediately tell that he was angry, But she didnt say anything and just sighed. She dropped the dog from herp and got up before heading to her room too. Soon enough, the stylist came with her assistant, after taking her bath, she got all dolled up and the stylist performed magic on her face. She slid into the ck evening gown that entuated her curvy shape and slender waist, she looked more feminine and sexy with her corbones exposed, and she looked hot with that ck dress on. The stylist made her hair into a curly hair, after dressing up, Amelia held her ck Mask that had ck fur around it. It was about 7 pm already. Maam you have such nice skin that we didnt put much effort into getting the final touch You look so beautiful Mrs. Ron theyplimented her and Amelia just smiled as she stared at herself in the mirror, she had changed from her nonchnt personality to a Reserved and Well-bred woman. Nothing money cant do! Scared Of Flashlights And Cameras?? After parking, The stylist and his assistant left the mansion. Amelia looked at herself in the mirror, she was stunned to see her own self, shes changed a lot. Just then, her phone dinged and She saw that it was a message from Alexander. {Mrs. Ron can youe down already??} A smile crept up to her lips as she quickly grabbed her mask and headed to the door as she opened it, she was startled to see Alexander at the door. What-what are you doing?? Thought you wanted me toe down?? Amelia asked as she scanned him, he was wearing a ck torso with a White sleeve that kissed his muscr chest and arms, its rear and pure white fabrics were hidden behind the ck suit. Alexander was just staring at her as his eyes roamed around her body. He had never taken much details of her before, he never knew she was this beautiful and had good figures. Earth to Alexander! Amelia flickered her fingers in front of Alexanders eyes but he didnt waver but rested his eyes calmly on her face. Im still on earth dummy! Alexander said and walked towards her. Amelia looked at him as he came closer Then, why were you staring at me like that?? It feels ufortable Alexander leaned towards her and Amelia was feeling hot for some reason, she was afraid and anticipating something. Gosh Amelia, you cant be like this. Alexander smiled and said You look beautiful Tonight, he said it so slowly and hoarsely as each word melted in her ears and Amelias ears turned red. Alexander liked that expression as he dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out something. Amelia gasped when she saw the Silver Ne that had a small crystal on it, it was so eye-catching and looked so expensive. It was from a raw material that screams wealth, Alexander slowly put his hands around Amelias neck and hooked the ne around her neck. Amelia ced her fingers on the Ne When did you get this?? Its so beautiful! Alexander felt fulfilled that he got that smile he wanted to see, he was happy to see her happy. He just wanted to keep seeing her happy and be the reason for herughter but he was still confused why, if he was asked, he wouldnt even be able to provide a reasonable answer. I would have said it was beautiful! Alexander saidzily as he put both hands in his pockets. Amelia gazed at Alexander And why dont you think its beautiful?? Cause Ive seen something more beautiful today, Alexander said with a shallow smile. Amelia raised a brow Which is?? You, Alexander said and Amelia immediately flushed red as she bit the inside of her cheek. Alexander let out a small chuckle before walking out while saying Come down, were almostte With that said, Alexander walked out, leaving Amelia close to the door. What was that?? Amelia felt the urge to p her face to see if she was in a dream, but she had makeup on so she didnt. That was so.. Arghhh Amelia groaned but her legs suddenly felt weak, Was she so cheap to feel all giddy because of apliment from a man?? Amelia used all her efforts to stabilize her mood as she walked out with heavy footsteps. She passed by Mrs Gale who came and held her hand and escorted her outside You dont need to tire yourself out Mrs. Gale, I can go out myself, Amelia said with a small smile and Mrs Gale continued leading her out Amelia, you look even more so beautiful tonight, Mrs Gale said as she opened the living room door and they walked out Have fun! Amelia let go of Mrs Gales hand and walked towards the ck Range Rover car at the entrance. The car went with their outfits. The driver opened the door for Amelia and she climbed into the back seat, she wasnt surprised to see Alexander sitting there but she suddenly remembered what he said a few minutes ago. You look beautiful Tonight as she remembered it, she suddenly lost bnce when she was about to sit and she tripped and fell forward. Alexander was quick to hold her and Amelia bumped her forehead on Alexanders chest. You could have probably said you wanted to lie in my arms instead of using such Methods Alexander teased and Amelia immediately raised her face and pushed Alexander from her. Are you always this spoilt with girls?? Who wants to lie in your arms?? Hmph Amelia immediately retorted as she tried to fix her emotions and adjusted herself. Alexander just smirked and didnt say a word.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Soon the car slowly drove out of thepound and passed along the busy streets. The sun had gone back to the horizon and the sky had a tinge of Yellow in it, it was indeed a beautiful night view. Amelia was lost in thoughts as she wondered how she was gonna be at the ball. She would be feeling so awkward and out of ce. You dont have to be nervous! A voice came from the side and Amelia hot startled as she turned to face Alexander who had just spoken. Can he read her mind now?? Im not Nervous! Not at all Amelia didnt want to look like she was distressed so she maintained a strong persona. Hmm Good then! Alexander said and remained unmoving. After a while, the car drove into a big mansion area that was lit, it shows the scale of the event, it wasnt a childs y. Amelia stared at the big hall ahead and Alexander didnt feel anything special in it as he waited for the car to park. After parking the car, Alexander walked out to open the door for Amelia who said a small thank You. Amelia slowly got down and cameras immediately started shing on their faces as they immediately became of center of attention. Amelia wasnt at allfortable and Alexander noticed that and excused himself from the press. He led Amelia inside and she regained a bit of color on her face. Sacred of shlights and cameras?? Alexander asked as he sat Amelia on a chair. Amelia just nodded a bit when a voice came from their back. Ah, its Alexander.. She’s Mine Alexander turned towards the voice, and Mr whacker walked towards them with a small smile. Mr whacker Alexander extended his hands and Mr whacker took it in his. Alexander, its being long, youve grown so well, Mr whacker said before turning to See Amelia, noticing his gaze, Alexander turned towards Amelia and she got up for Alexander to introduce them.All content is ?

Ah nice to meet you, Mrs. Ron, Mr whacker said as he scrutinized Amelia Amelia is okay, Amelia said and Mr. Whacker looked at her on a brighter side, she wasnt proud and that was good. Please enjoy the party! Mr whacker said and walked out. Alexander led Amelia to the VIP section and sat there. Soon the party started and Mr whacker came to give a small speech: Wee, everyone, to the Whacker family Masquerade Ball! It is once again my honor to host this years event along with my esteemed colleagues! Many months ago, when I first started the preparations for this event, I was greatly excited by our forting sequel. The conventions were over, wed seen our first taste of gamey, and we knew more than half the professions, and some of the race information was just being revealed. A toast to Us Mr whacker brought his ss up for a toast and the guest brought their sses up. Enjoy the rest of the evening, Mr whacker said and came down from the tform Lots of chattering can be heard as people try to mingle and form business alliances with others. Alexander wasnt speared as some of his acquaintances came to greet him. Amelia walked towards the wine cer to sit, she was having a cup of Americano when a guy came to order. Bartender a cup of americano please? He said before seeing Amelia. Amelia wasnt paying him any attention as she sipped on her coffee. Lonely as I am?? The guy said and Amelia looked at him. Well not really, just wanted to grab a drink, Amelia said as she dropped down her cup of americano. But you seem lonelier than I do, He said and Amelia just chuckled Seriously?? Am I that obvious?? She said while inclining her head to one side. You arent used to such events right?? He asked instead and Amelia just looked down at her drink. Well, what to do?? Amelia sighed as she looked everywhere, there were filled with people of high ss and importance, and she felt left out. Well Im Travis by name Travis extended his hands and Amelia just nodded at him Amelia.. She introduced and Travis withdrew his hands. So are you someones partner or you were invited by Mr whacker Travis asked as he stared at Amelia. I came with my husband, Amelia said and Travis made a surprised face with an O mouth. Sounds more like it, hell be very busy today as there are lots of people with influence, hell try to mingle with them, Travis said as he sipped from his americano. He doesnt need to mingle with people for deals, theyre the one wanting to mingle with him, Amelia said as he gazed in Alexanders direction, A man was talking to him but he had azy expression on as if he wasnt interested in the talk. Amelia smiled a bit, so proud! Travisughed a bit Dont be mistaken, Your husband must probably want to secure deals right now, unless hes Alexander Ron who people want to cling to his thighs Travis said slowly, he looked more mature. Amelia felt the urge tough as she just smirked, her husband was the talk of the town, so powerful and graceful. Why did you say so?? Amelia asked instead. Well I have an AIpany that wants to secure a deal with him but he bluntly refused, So mean Travis scoffed, trying to lighten the mood. Ameliaughed a bit, totally amused Then what if I tell you hes my Husband?? Dont joke around like that, women would want to stay away from him, you know, he has that cold looking eyes that are so frightening like, Im gonna suck your life-kind off look Travis said and Amelia didnt know when she startedughing hard. Everyone painted Alexander like a cold god, what if they knew that he was jealous of his dog because of her?? Alexander was usually sweet to her. Travis showed a small smile as he looked at Amelia, he would have asked for her contact info but she said she was married, he respected married women a lot. Well, Alexander isnt as you describe him cause I know him well, Hes my hubby Amelia said with a smile Travis narrowed his eyes at her to see if she was lying but when he saw those serious eyes, his eyes widened in shock. What?? You can handle him?? Then you deserve the Best Woman Award of the Century Travis said with a slight bow and Amelia found it funny as she let out a chuckle Well as I told you, he isnt too cold and he is instead sweet, Amelia said as she remembered how he rubbed her head in the living room earlier. Dont let words get out that you refer to Alexander Ron as Sweet, geez it Creeps me out Travis made a threaded look as he rxed on the chair. Just then, a shadow came over and Travis looked up to meet Alexanders cold eyes. But it was as if he had hallucinated cause he quickly reced it with a smile. Hey wifey, having a fun time?? Come lets go have dinner Alexander said and helped Amelia down from the stool. He didnt spare Travis any gaze as he focused on helping Amelia down. Okay it was nice meeting you anyways, Amelia said to Travis with a small smile and walked towards Alexander. Not really, was kinda bored Amelia said and looked up at Alexander, Alexander pinched her cheeks before saying Im sorry wifey, I was kinda caught up with some random people, Im here now Alexander said as he caressed her hair. Amelia nodded at him with a small smile, she was alreadyfortable with Alexander and his ways. she walked away with him. Alexander looked at Travis with contempt as he wrapped his arm around Amelias waist and held her firmly to himself. Amelia didnt think much of it but Travis was also a man and he understood what Alexander meant. It was; Shes mine, stay in your territory! Knight Cyrus Alexander led Amelia to their table and they were served drinks and Simple dishes that werent too shabby or expensive because it was a masquerade ball. What do we have here?? Alexander Amelia immediately lost her appetite as she dropped her fork used the wiper to clean her mouth and made a straight back. Alexander didnt notice Any abnormalities with Amelia and just inclined his head to see Ash Moon. Ash Moon walked towards their table, she was wearing a side-cut red gown with ck designs all over. It entuates her figure well. All her jewelry looked so expensive, she walked towards the table and concealed her hate for Amelia as she stood there and stretched her hand out for Amelia. Hello, Ive finally got to meet you, Im Ash moon, and you are??. Ash said with a wide smile but had that contempt in her eyes, she tried to conceal them enough though but she wasnt too good as Amelia could already see through her facade. Alexander sat there as he stared at Amelia, Amelia didnt even spare Ash a gaze. Amelia felt the urge to snort at Ash, when she hated someone, she didnt care to give them some face so she just pretended she didnt hear Ashs words. Alexander didnt say a word when Amelia ignored Ash and Ash turned towards Alexander with a kind of a whats -goingC Gaze. Alexander didnt even say a word and rather turned to Amelia Satisfied already?? Amelia didnt even pay him any attention, she was sucking right now, totally displeased. Ash said, Can I join you guys?? She said and Amelia immediately shot her a sharp gaze alexander saw that and he said to Amelia softly. Dont re at her that way! Alexander said and gestured for Ash to sit with them. Amelia was so vexed that she dug her nails into her palm that it hurt.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. I need to get some fresh air, Amelia said when she couldnt bear to see ash face anymore and Alexander wasnt helping issues as she got up to live. She had thought Alexander would stop her but he just watched her leave. She had thought he would grab her hand and tell her to stop but he didnt. Amelia scoffed at herself mockingly, she was such a fool to even think that. Tears filled her eyes as she thought of it, She tried to control them as she walked out, she didnt know where she was heading but she was just moving, going to somewhere far from this damn environment, somewhere she could have fresh air and regain her sanity. And soon she found herself in a garden that was filled with flowers, she could see that the flowers were all chrysanthemums and tulips because of the big light in the garden. The breeze in the garden was so fresh and cool, mixed with the fragrance of flowers. Inside the ball, Alexander slowly turns to look at Ash after seeing Amelia walk out. He didnt know what was wrong with her but he decided to give her time. He didnt notice anything weird or thought maybe she might disagree with Ash Moon. Whats the matter?? Alexander asked Ash Moon who had been so lost in thoughts when Amelia walked out. She was happy that Amelia was angry and left and Alexander didnt bother with her. Um that whacker wants us toe to his private study for a meeting, Ash Moon said and Alexander frowned Just us?? Alexander asked with uncertainty. Not sure, maybe he just wants to catch up with us all,e, Ash said and got up and Alexander didnt think much about it and left. Some guests were talking as they passed by and headed upstairs. Ash signaled to a person at a corner and the person immediately took out his phone to take pictures. Ash pretended to trip and Alex was quick-witted as he held her arm and Ash used that opportunity to fall into his chest. The person got that part as he took that picture of it. Alexander frowned and steadied Ash before pulling her off him. Alexander continued to walk upstairs and Ash walked behind him. The person smiled and looked at the pictures. All these didnt leave the sight of A Guy in the corner who was in all red and Had a small smirk on his lip. Alexander ah, youre keeping a snake close by, thought you were smart! Meanwhile, Alexander opened the door and walked into the study to see that there were several people there, Ash walked in as well. They were all Acquaintances of Mr whacker. Mr. Ron a man got up and shook hands with Alexander Mr spare! Alexander acknowledged the man and the others also came as well and they all greeted themselves. Travis got up from his chair and walked towards Alexander Mr. Ron Alexanders eyes shed a bit but it was immediately concealed as he shook hands with Travis, he turned to face Mr whacker and said Mr whacker, your son is all grown up now Travis got so angry Youre just a few months older than I am, dont get too ahead of yourself, Travis said without any fear Alexander smirked at him before applying pressure on Traviss hands and Travis immediately frowned. Travis tried to withdraw his hands as he stared at Alexander who was just showing him a pleasant smile as if he wasnt doing anything. Young whacker! Is something wrong with you?? Whyre you all paled?? Alexander asked as if he wasnt aware of anything and Travis gritted his teeth in fury. Damn, Ron! Thats enough already, Alexander let go of him Mr. Whacker knew that Alexander and Travis, his only son, never agreed in any terms. Alexander didnt say much and just let off Traviss hand and patted him on his shoulder like an elder encouraging his Junior. Alexander took a seat and Ash sat beside him and Mr. Whacker cleared his throat. Now lets get down to business, I called you all here for a reason! Mr whacker said, And Ouch, I wasnt informed of this meeting but not to worry, Ill invite myself A voice came from the door and Alexander immediately frowned as his temperature rose and his gaze became bone chilling. Ash felt the pressure as she was sitting near him. All the people in the room immediately felt displeased that Knight suddenly showed up. They all knew that Alexander Ron And Knight Cyrus werent on good terms, they couldnt breathe in the same environment. Mr whacker looked at the knight who was at the door Knight, we have an exclusive meeting and you arent allowed in here, Youve been disbanded so get the hell out Cmon old man, dont be this way, I just came to see my best friend, its been a while now, right Alex Boy?? Knight spites Alexander whose anger is already at its peak. My Cheek Bones And Muscular Features Alexander looked at Knight with a calm expression I can see you havent learned anything since you got chased out of Europe Tsk, I wont me you though since youve always been a slow learner even right from school Alexander said and Knight just shrug Ah what to do, what to say when Im soon going to be thetest Knight said and Alexander crossed his legs Sure,test of all roaches, Alexander said From the pits Alexander added and Ash just smirked a bit. This was her true man, her dream man. Knight get out or I ask the guards to escort you out, Mr whacker said without much expression but Knight just raised his hands in surrender. Nah, I wont stress you, Im outknight turns towards Alexander See you soon Ron Alexander gazed at him closely Im not a fucker to meet you Knight smirked before walking out and closing the door behind him. Alexander suddenly had a bad premonition as that wasnt like The knight he knew. Knight for some reason, didnt banter words with him. Alexander looked at Mr. Whacker and Mr whacker continued his statement from earlier. Meanwhile, in the garden, Amelia kept strolling, she was the only one there.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. She was so lost in thoughts, Alexander was so mean! So mean! She was never this soft to feel hurt but she had suddenly be this weak because she had actually. broke her principles. She knew shed start developing feelings for Alexander but the painful part was the fact that it wouldnt be reciprocated as he had a girlfriend already. She was feeling extremely pained this evening as Alexander showed it to her face that he would never choose her, not once. And it hurts to know that she still had feelings for him. She was swimming in her own emotions when she heard a ding sound from her phone. She checked it out, it was a notification from an unknown number. She clicked the box to see photos, Amelias eyes constricted as she stared at those photos. Tears welled up in her eyes as she gripped her phone harder, She stared at the picture of Alexander holding Ashs arm while she rested on his chest on the stairs. It was taken from a particr angle that makes it even more hot and romantic like a gentleman helping his Girlfriend up from falling. Amelia didnt want to think about it anymore as she closed the message box and locked her phone. She kept sniffing in her snot, she tried to suppress that suffocating feeling within her but it eventually choked her so that she couldnt help but cry it out. So mean-youre so mean Alex Amelia cried out as she held onto her chest as if to lessen the pain. Her chest felt so tight as she choked on her tears, She was a fool for falling for Alexander. She could have seen the signs, she was aware, she knew he was in a rtionship with Ash Moon but this damn heart just kept calling for him. Stupid Heart. Amelia bent in the middle of the garden as she cried while scolding herself. Just then, a handkerchief was extended to her and she took it and blew her snot in it as she cleaned her eyes and said Then- She immediately looked up to see who gave her the handkerchief. After seeing him, Amelia got up and sniffed a bit before cleaning her tears. Thanks for the handkerchief, Amelia said awkwardly as she looked at the ground below her. Such a pity to see such a young and promising woman cry! Tsk Tsk The man said and Amelia gripped hard on the handkerchief. She had a bad premonition in her as she looked at the man, he didnt look all good for her to exchange a few words with. Um, thanks for the handkerchief though, Amelia said and was about to walk out when the man stopped her. Cmon dont act so rude you know! He said and Amelia looked at him Am I rude?? Amelia asked as she eyed him Very, one piece of evidence, the way you are scrutinizing me now is very ufortable, He said as he ced his hands on his hips and Amelia frowned at him. I was not checking you out Amelia immediately defended herself. Sure?? But I dont seem to believe that though He saidzily and Amelia rolled her eyes at him. Its your headache then Ouch, you know, its not nice being rude to a handsome guy like me, He said again as he held onto his chest to illustrate that her words pained him. Amelia was dumbfounded for a while, she didnt know if this guy was handsome or not as she didnt feel anything. Maybe it was because she had been with Alex who was far more handsome than the guys she had met. She had dined with Alexander, Laughed with him, yed with him, and slept in the same bed as him that was so devilishly and sinfully handsome. So it wasnt her fault for being so immune when she saw guys that were supposed to be attractive to her. Hmm but youre the one saying youre handsome, I dont see anything, Amelia said with a little expression and the man frowned. You cant possibly tell me that, Im handsome, check my cheekbones and all my masculine features, he said a bit narcissistic. Amelia scoffed Check your cheekbones?? Those cheeks that look more like soaked bread though, no offense Amelia said and the manughed out. Its the first though, so my cheek looks like that of a soaked and wet bread?? the man asked with a smile and Amelia chuckled as confirmation. Well Amelia sighed with heavy shoulders before trying to walk past her but the man held her arms and she tried to drag her arms off his grip. Hey dont be too hard on me, whats your name?? He said and Amelia didnt bother to reply. Cmon, Im talking to you The man urged Amelia who didnt say anything. Amelia thought that with the mans persistence, she should just tell him her name and get out of there. Call me Amelia, Amelia said that without her surname, just because she did not want to bring harm to Alexander, she didnt know if he was an enemy of Alexander, and if he found out that she was his wife, then there might be trouble, big trouble. The man smiled Call me Cyrus.. he said and watched Amelias expression Cyrus Knight Amelia was immediately startled as she subconsciously took a step back. Alexander Dated Ash Moon Amelia immediately turned a bit pale but she quickly regained herself and said Okay nice to meet you, Ill be off now She said, trying to look calm but within her, her mind was in turmoil. An enemy of Alexander should be considered Dangerous, it only takes one to be extremely dangerous and ruthless to be worthy of bing Alexanders Enemy. Knight Cyrus!! Amelia was about to turn around for the umpteenth time but Knight held her hand and this time, with more force. Amelia was startled to see those cold eyes, his eyes filled with venom and he gripped her hand more tightly with a lot of force. Amelia bit her inner cheek as she was so nervous. Let go! Amelia tried to waggle her hands off his grip but it was so difficult. Amelia felt powerless against him as his grip was firm. Those cold eyes kept staring at her before it suddenly turned soft and a sweet smile spread on the knights face. Amelia didnt find it any sweet but she felt more rmed with that smile. From your expression, seems like your husband must have told you all my tales, imma a legend right?? Haha, Knightughed as he held Amelias hand. Amelia stared at the knight with utter disgust, anyone who hated her husband was her enemy. Amelia suddenly struck a quick blow at his acupuncture point but Knight was so fast as he got a quick hold of her hand. Even with that encounter, Amelia used her shoes to hit him on the knee and Knight let out a groaning sound and let go of her hands she tried to run away when Knight gripped her hair tightly. If I were you, just take a car and leave this venue immediately! Cause Alexander isnting for you Knight said with a hint of pity, disgust, and anger in his eyes.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Amelias eyes flickered as her veins popped up What are you going to do with Alexander?? Amelia was so scared but tried to muster up a calm face. Im not going to do anything to Alexander but rather.. hes going to be the one to do something to youKnight corrected her statement and Amelia was confused. Me?? Amelia didnt want to believe anything from the knight, he might be up to something. Dont think you can fool me, Im not believing anything thates from your foul mouth Amelia said as she held onto the knights hand. You dont believe, just wait a bit, Im not gonna do anything to you, Knight said with a low voice and released his grip from her head Amelia immediately took off but was startled to see men in the garden. Knight shook his head, such a stubborn girl, so fierce and too troublesome to handle. The men were all over the garden and one walked towards Amelia ced his hand on his mouth and slowly opened his shirt Amelias gaze caught the gun on his trousers and she made a tight fist in hatred. She gritted her teeth and understood what the man meant. She slowly made her way back to the knight and stood in front of him. Amy dont do things the hard way, just wait a bit, I wont take much of your time, Knight said leisurely as he scrutinized Amelia, he never knew Alexanders type were the fierce ones. Whats this all about mr Cyrus?? Amelia asked inplete disdainced in her tone. Knight just stood there without answering her questions and looked at his phone. When I get the signal Ill let you know Just say it already you bastard, youre keeping me hostage here and still refuse to say a word! Amelia barked at him with no fear. Knight was so amused as he was getting intrigued by her, she was a different woman from the ones he had encountered, they always want to lick his ass and creep their way to his bed while some showed extreme fear for him but this woman She shouted at Him! He didnt scold her or hurt her, he said calmly Alexander isnt worthy of you, ash has him wrapped around her fingers, shes nning something tonight, Ill show you when I get the info, Knight said calmly and Amelia gripped the side of her gown. That woman! Ash Moon! Ash was Everywhere. Whats she nning to do with Alex?? Amelia asked and Knight scoffed in disgust. Pains me how you still care for that scumbag Knight said and Amelia bit her tongue as she looked down. She couldnt find her voice. ?? After concluding the meeting with Mr whacker, Alexander got up from his seat and walked out with Ash trailing behind him. Alexander made quick strides and came down to the party. He took out his phone to call Amelia when he felt a tuck in his suit. He frowned and turned back to see Ash who was holding his suits edge. Alexander was immediately alert as he saw Ashs face that was so paled and her lips had turned Purple due to paleness. Alexander held her shoulder as he watched her closely Ash whats the problem?? Are you okay?? You-you look so paled Alexander said but Ash couldnt talk as her eyes became so hazy and tears filled her eyes. Alexander had a rough idea of what this was all about. He immediately signaled for his driver to go prepare his car, his mind was in turmoil. All the people there were staring at them and watched as Alexander immediately carried Ash in a princess style and walked out of the hall in hurried footsteps. They were all whispering amongst themselves. Isnt that Alexander carrying Ash Moon?? He came with some otherdy earlier, whats his deal with her?? does he two times?? Another guest spectes. Who doesnt know how close Alexander is with Ash Moon, rumor has it that they once dated for they are so close and they look so perfect together, Ady said and watched the back of Alexander. That woman is just an escort for the ball, Ash is the main deal, wheres the woman now?? She must have already left since the real woman has arrived all the guests agreed. Alexander hurried into the car and dropped Ash in the back seat. At a corner, a man immediately sends the clip to a number. After sending it, he smirked and went into the dark. I’ll Find You In the Garden, Knight smirked when his phone made a ding. Seeing that smile, Amelia immediately fumed in anger. Youre such a waste, How can you keep me here without anything happening Amelia was starting to doubt Knights words. She had been here for about half an hour now with no signs of Alexander doing anything. Knight didnt say a word and handed his phone over to Amelia. Take it, thats evidence Knight said as he gestured for Amelia to take the phone. Amelia was a bit skeptical as she looked at Knight with uncertainty, her heart started beating vigorously as she heard the evidence part. Did Alexander do something?? Amelia swallowed a lump of saliva and to the phone, she didnt look directly at it. She was holding the phone and staring at Knight. knight raised his chin to tell her to look at the phone. Amelia made a fist with the other free hand that she wasnt using to hold anything. She slowly but surely brought her eyes down to the phone screen and used his thumb finger to y the video. Her eyes were bing darker and darker as tears filled every spot of her eyes. She almost got suffocated with that feeling of Nostalgia, it felt so surreal. She should just conceal her feelings for Alexander, it didnt matter if she had feelings for him. It doesnt matter anyway, hes taken! Amelia watched as Alexander carried Ash in his arms and walked out in a panic state. Her heart clenched when she saw Alexander drop ash in the car and drive off. Wait-what??? He drove off! He freaking Left her???!! That bastard. Amelia cursed under her breath as she stared down at her clothes, Screw Alexander. She swallowed hard and regained herposure again, She wasnt going to waste her tears on a man who forgot her. She felt regretful that she had cried because of him earlier, She wasnt a whore who would want him to leave his girlfriend just because of her. She wasnt a rtionship or home wrecker. Alexander was no different from her father, she was thankful she found out earlier. Amelia handed Knight his phone with a calm face Okay, thanks for the information, can I leave now?? Knight immediately showed a rear and amazed smile as he looked at Amelia who was soposed, this wasnt what he had anticipated, it beat his imagination. This girl! Knight looked at Amelia with keen eyes. Ill find you, Knight said to Amelia as if making a vow. Amelia snorted at him In your wildest dreams She said and walked out with a straight back. She breathed in a sigh of relief that the guards didnt stop her again as she left the garden. She directly went to the gate and left the ce. She walked along the street with her gown and heels. She was looking for a taxi but she didnt find any, she tried to book a cab but there wasnt anyone avable. She must have to walk to the nearby bus station to get home. She aimlessly and calmly walked along the road. There wasnt any expression on her face As she walked along, she wasnt frowning, just walking, letting the hot tears pour out my itself. They tickled down her cheek as she walked along the lonely road to the express. What was her problem anyway?? That he already had someone he likes?? That she was just nurturing feelings for a man that was never going to reciprocate it?? Argh Amelia suddenly eximed as her heels broke, her feet felt so sore as she bent down pulled off the heels, and ced her small legs on the ground. She held her heels in her hands and walked along the Road, barefoot. Such is life, Life is such. This was what she got! Fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amelia shouted out loud when she was feeling so pressed in the chest due to the tears she was holding in. It hurts- it does hurt, right here Amelia held her chest area in pain. Meanwhile, in a ck Range Rover, as the driver sped along the road, Alexander supported Ashs head on his shoulder and then it felt as if something hit him. Amelia!! Shit.! Alexander immediately dialed her number but it was switched off. His mind raced in both fear and Regret. What if Knight had got to her?? Alexander dialed Liams number and It went through. Liam, I need your help with something! Not avable right now for that, Im in the middle of an investigation for my client, Liam said hurriedly and hung up. Screw you, Liam. Alexander immediately turned towards Ash who was resting her head on his shoulder. He dropped his phone removed her head from his shoulder and rested it on the chair. She was still a bit paled as Alex withdrew his eyes from her face and dialed Georges number. Hello, Georges voice came from the other end. Go to the Whackers Family mansion and go pick up Amelia and be fast about it, Knight is there! George seems to widen his eyes a bit Wait- arent you with her?? Didnt she go with you to the ball?? George asked Ash suddenly fell sick and Im On my way to the hospital, Alexander said as he bit his lips in nervousness. He was never this stupid once! How could he suddenly forget that Knight was also at the ball? He could have returned but he was almost at the hospital. And then, you left your wife in front of the lions mouth?? You are fully aware that Knight is there but you still left her, Sorry to say, You really disappointed me this time Alexander, thats so irresponsible of youGeorge immediately rebuked Alex and Alex stared down at his fingers as his mind raced and he felt even more regretful as George scolded him. He never liked to be scolded, not even once but now, he couldnt say a word. Please help me go check and drive her home, Alexander said with a creaked voice as he stared out, his voice suddenly turned hoarse as he added -Please George calmed down a bit, Alexander was never the type to beg.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. He was surprised though, he sighed deeply and said On my way, Ill update youter Alexander hummed and George hung up and he dropped his head in defeat. He stared out of the window as he mumbled Im sorry Amy- He wasnt aware but Ash slowly opened her eyes and stared At Alexanders back. Amelia, Amelia! Amelia was everywhere!!! Ash gritted her teeth in fury and when Alexander turned towards her side again, she quickly closed her eyes. Alexander looked at Ash for a while and turned towards the window again. Ash Was An Emergency Amelia didnt know how she got to the door in front of Easternnd but she just stood in front of the gate. Her legs were all swollen as she sat on the concrete ground, her head was pounding. She had managed to reach the bus station and hailed a taxi from there, due to how reserved Eastern Land was, the taxi needed to have a pass to go onto the main road of Eastern Land. So the taxi man stopped in front of the signboard that was the beginning of Eastern Land. So she got down there and had to trek from the entrance and pass by different streets to Alexanders house. Easternnd was like a small reserved estate on its own. The few residents there were all powerful people who even didnt know each other as everyone minded their business. Amelia sighed heavily as she sat on the concrete in front of the gate. She couldnt ce her foot on the ground for even a second as it hurt a lot. Meanwhile, George immediately drove to the Whackers family house and he hurriedly got down from the car and headed towards the house but it was only lit and quiet. It seems all the guests have already gone home. George grabbed his hair as he didnt bother to go in and just drove out again. The guards didnt bother with him as they knew who he was so they opened the gate for him to drive out. George drove out of thepound and drove to a distance for a while before stopping the car and he took his phone to call Alexander. All the guests have already left and its so quiet in there, George said and Alexander was immediately startled as his eyes constricted. Check for Knights location Alexander instructed and hung up. He saw the doctor walk out of the emergency ward Ash was in and he approached him. hows she doing?? Alexander asked as he looked at his phone, obviously distracted. Well, shes stable now, her illness just red up because she was overstressed, she needs more rest and needs to avoid anything that might stress her both physically and psychologically. The doctor said with both hands in his coats pocket. Did you tell her all these?? Alexander asked as he scrolled his contact list and dialed Amelias number. The doctor frowned a bit You know her condition is special, these kinds of things might prone her into thinking and another problem might ur The doctor said. You havent answered my question though! Alexander said as he redialed Amelias contact info after the first trial didnt connect. I didnt tell her, the doctor said slowly and Alexander looked at him for a while. Then You should, Alexander said and was about to walk out when the doctor said: No, she needs attention from someone now! And thats the more reason you have to tell her so that she might call one of her rtives toe help her, Alexander said with a deep frown, obviously not interested in the topic anymore. You-you arent her husband?? The doctor asked and Alexander red hard at him. No! Alexander said it so coldly as if he was rejecting the idea of being Ashs husband. If Ash had seen his expression and how cold his voice was when he said the NO, Ash would have lost all hopes of ever pursuing him. With that said, Alexander walked away from the hospital door, leaving the doctor whose mouth was agape.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Amy please pick up, please just this once Alexander muttered as he dialed her number again This number you dialed is out of coverage, please leave a message! Alexander removed the phone from his ear and soon it vibrated and he immediately answered the call. Whats the update?? Alexander immediately asked as he ced the phone close to his ears. Knight is in his den, he went to a gambling den and he seems so leisure and neutral, George said from the other end. Okay thank you Alexander hung up and thought, since Knight didnt kidnap Amelia, the only possibility left is that. She was purposely avoiding him! Alexander immediately felt a gush of guilt wash over him, he was so ashamed and angry at himself. No matter what, he shouldnt have left her there. Alexander took out his phone and called home and Mrs. Gale answered Hello sir Is Madam home already?? Alexander asked in a fist of anxiousness. No sir, she isnt home yet! Mrs Gales voice came from the other side and Alexander felt his throat drop into his chest. As if a time bomb dropped on his head he took two steps backwards. She-she didnte home?? Alexander asked again and Mrs Gale responded in a negative. Alexander ended the call and dialed Amelias number again as sweat formed on his forehead, she wasnt with Knight nor was she at home. Where did she go to,? Just then, the call was answered and Alexander immediately asked; Amy where are you?? Are you okay?? Look, Im sorry I left without informing you, there was an emergency I had to take care of, Im truly sorry, please tell me your location and I cane pick you up Alexander said with a hoarse voice as held the phone tightly and kept muttering Sorry! But the other side remained silent and Alexander was both nervous and feeling suspicious. Cmon keep pleading Alex, I wanna hear those words cause Ive never imagined or thought that I would hear you plead. Oh my Gosh! It was too hot Knight giggled from the other side. Alexander immediately frowned as he looked at his phone screen, this was Amelias number and Knight was with the phone, that is Wheres Amelia?? Dare hurt her and Ill personally send you to hell you bastard Alexander said with aposed tone as he threatened. Tsk, tsk Alexander you wont change, Im not a motherfucker like you, you always think the worst of me, Shes doing good with me, and guess what?? Shes listening to our conversation because shes right inside my Car Knight said from the other side as he turned to look at the girl who had a tight face and Was ring at him. He stretched his hand to hold her chin but she pped off his hand. Amelia was sitting in front of the mansion when A car suddenly drove close to her and it revealed the knights face. She was already too weak to fight against his men and they dragged her into their car and drove off. She was sitting tight in her seat when her phone rang and it was Alexander calling but Knight took the phone to answer it instead. She felt anger when she heard what Alexander said, An emergency urred?? Ash was an emergency for him! What was she to him?? Scoff. Heart,You Must Comply With Me! Alexanders face was so unsightly. Dont do anything to her, just say what you want! Alexander tried to bargain with the knight. Im such a fool Alexander cursed himself, never had he made such a mistake before! What had gotten into him?? Knight stared at Amelia for a while. Well Im not doing anything with her, just wanted to see her onest time before I go, shes so lovely, Knight said and Amelia snorted at him with utter disgust. Knight dont taste my patience Alexander was so angry as fear for her gripped him. Dont worry, youll get her tomorrow Knight said before giggling and ending the call, he didnt forget to switch it off. Amelia immediately put her hand behind her back, she was looking at Knight with a calm face but her hands were fiddling with the door. Dont even think of that, just wanted to mess with his mind, Im gonna let you go Knight said and immediately started the car. You said you were gonna let me go, where are you taking me?? Quickly stop the car! Amelia said as she red hard at Knight. Im taking you somewhere, Knight said and drove along the expressway. At the hospital, Alexander walked out of the hospital and entered his car. He drove out of the hospital without noticing the gaze on him from the window in the hospital. Ash was so angry as she looked at Alexanders departing car through the window. Alexander made several calls along the way. He called Elliot to track their location and had Gary check every border, airport, and railway. He had already put Amelia in danger, he couldnt afford to lose her, Never! His mind was in turmoil as he gripped the steering wheel tightly and his knuckles turned white due to anxiety. Just then, a message came from an unknown number and he frowned so deeply. He took the phone, opened the message, and saw a clip of Amelia heading to a room, it seemed to be a hotel. What was Knight doing with Amelia in a hotel room?? Alexander flicked his phone on the chair as he stepped on the brakes and it made a sharp noise as the car halted. Damn you Knight!!!! He gripped his hair, as he tried to make himself calm, his anxiety was growing again but he tried to stay calm. He was a Mafia, he shouldnt be like this. Amelia was just his contracted Mate, she was just No, his mind started to work as he thought hard, this fear only came from deep in his heart. He was never this anxious for anyone, he was never this scared for a person. He wasnt like this with Amelia before, all the times he wanted to take care of her, make her smile, and cuddle her. All these possibilities rushed to his head and he came to the truth. He loved Her, he loved Amelia! He had indeed fallen for her! Alexander hit the steering wheel again. Got to find out only now?? This is bullshit Alexander cursed at his slow-wittedness. He sure does have a very low EQ. He took out his phone to call George again Help me Check all hotels and bars for Amelia, even the VIP areas, invade all! Alexander said with a cold face. He couldnt afford for Anything to happen to his woman. Meanwhile, Knight opened the door and told Amelia to go in. You cant push me around, and besides I have a home, I cant stay here, Amelia said as she held the door, she was still barefoot. Her legs felt as if they were in hot water as it tinged now. Im not your husband so dont shout at me! Knight shouted back at Amelia for the first time now. And you arent even worthy of being one! Amelia retorted back with a tight re at him. Knight scoffed loudly Alexander is worth it then.. stupid! He said and turned to leave. Amelia bit her lip and said at least, hes morefortable to be with She said In a fist to defend him and Knight shook his head at her. Just get inside, your husband will find you soon anyway, Knight said and walked out. Amelia shouted at the back And why is that?? She was confused. This is his hotel! Knight said again and disappeared from the corridor. This hotel was Alexanders.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. This seven-star hotel?? Amelia didnt want to look surprised as Alexander was rich so it wasnt too surprising to know. Amelia wanted to leave this ce but her legs were threatening to pass out, so she opened the door and managed to walk in with little steps. Argh Amelia groaned in pain as she made her way to the bed and immediately jumped on it. What an omen She eximed and brought her legs up to examine them. They were all swollen and red. She just wanted to forget about all about Alexander and his Lover. Ah, it was four months left and it seemed to be like an eternity. It was as if the time wanted to be slow purposely. She was already tired of everything, so exhausted by all the recent happenings. And about the knight?? for some reasons, she was a bitfortable with him, She didnt know why but he gave her a sort of familiarity as if she had seen him before. Amelia immediately frowned as she disposed of those thoughts. She just needed to rx her aching muscles. She shut her eyes to sleep but it seemed as if Sleep had run far away from her and she just stared at the ceiling for a long time before sighing deeply. Heart, you mustply with me this time around, dont just go about falling for a guy, youre strong,e on Amelia muttered to herself as she held her shoulder and dropped it down on her chest to press it. She got up and tiptoed to the bathroom with a lot of difficulties shey on the bathtub and allowed the hot warm soak her tensed body and she was greatly rxed. After bathing, she tied a towel and wore a bathroom slipper but it only prone the soreness on her feet to increase. She had to tiptoe back to her bed again. She kept her gown on the chair close by and went to bed, just when she was set to sleep, The door suddenly opened and she was so shocked as she curled up in the bed and looked at the door to see who barged in. Do You Wanna Kill Your Husband?? Alexander stared at the girl on the bed as Guilt gnawed at his heart. He didnt know how to face Amelia, nothing he was gonna say would be able to appease Amelia at the moment. He knew Amelia so well, she was always vengeful, she must make a payback to those who made her suffer and he wouldnt be surprised to know that she would kill him this time around. Amelia saw him at the door andy back on the bed without throwing even a saliva. Alexander went to meet her with heavy footsteps. He was at least lucky for George to locate this ce. George had helped him check all hotels in the city with the aid of his manpower and the use of surveince cameras around. Amelia got up from the bed with a neutral expression, she wasnt smiling or putting on an angry face. And that made Alexander more uneasy, if she was frowning or angry that would have been more better for him. Amy. Youre here, okay lets head home Amelia cut him off and was ready to get off the bed but she hissed in pain when her foot touched the ground. You- Alexander walked towards Amelia and held her hand but Amelia immediately shook his hand off hers. Alexander didnt expect anything less but he was persistent as he held her again. Let go! Amelia said but Alex didnt pay any needs to her. Let me help you Alexander replied, ready to pick her up but Amelia suddenly thought of how he still carried Ash this way. Her eyes were filled with utter disgust for Alex, when Alexander saw that look, he was startled and felt sad. Amelia adjusted from him as she held onto the bed for support and tried to take a small step but it felt more difficult than raising a mountain. Amelia gritted her teeth, when did she ever get sozy to be feeling hurt by just an injury?? She tried to leap but Alexander wasnt having any of it again as he walked in front of her and bent, he used force to grab her legs and she fell on his back. Before Amelia could react, he had already stood up with her on his back. He carried her in a piggyback style, and Amelia was feeling reluctant but she knew she couldnt fight against him. She was injured and needed help but her ego seems to have been stepped on. Alexander carried Amelia out with her on his back, with no slippers on. Alexander walked out of the hotel through the back passageway and Amelia wished they got to get to where the car was already.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. She was so shy as she was in Alexanders back, him carrying her now didnt mean she was gonna go soft on him. She frowned again at the thought of him leaving her behind. Alexander asked his driver to open the car door, but the driver was slow to react as he was stunned. His master carried a woman on his back?? What was his madam turning his boss into?? Do you need to get checked in the brain for you to understand simple English?? Alexander berated the driver and he immediately went to open the door for them. Alexander turned his back to the car and Amelia slowly slid down from his back and sat on the chair. She was with the robe, Alexander didnt let her take the gown earlier, what a waste! Throughout the drive home, Amelia kept muttering and pouting. Sucking all through without paying Alexander any heed. Hey! Alexander tried to talk to her but she didnt even turn to face him nor listen for him. As if he was invincible. For the first time in Alexanders life, he didnt know what to do, how could he be such a fool to leave his wife and just find out that he loved her? How can he win her heart now that he had hurt her so badly!? He didnt see himself winning this as Amelia was not some random girl who forgives easily, she liked to pay back. She has an ego and doesnt forgive too easily. Amy, can we. Not in the mood there came the cold reply from Amelia who still, was facing the window. Alexander stared at her side profile for a while before groaning and resting his head on the chair. This was gonna be hard. Just as the car parked in thepound, without further ado, Amelia opened the door and was about to walk out again but she stopped in mid-air. Alexander saw her pause and he immediately understood and he came down to her side. Amelia made a tight fist, why was this happening to her now?? She wanted to punch Alexander in the face but she didnt want to get killed by Ash so early. Amelia scoffed and was reluctant for a while. Alexander remained patient without saying a word, afraid anything he was going to say might cost him his head. His eyes dropped to her swollen toes and his breathing hitched as he kept making lots of promises in his mind. He shouldnt do such a thing again, Ameliaes first before anybody else. He made that silent oath as he looked at Amelia and an ounce of regret gripped his chest. Amelia bit her lower lips before nodding for Alexander to carry her. Alexander immediately ced his hand under her thighs and the other on her back and carried her in a princess style. Amelia wrapped her hands around his neck with an angry face, not smiling or enjoying the ride. Alexander carried her into the living room and Mrs Gale walked towards them in anxiousness. Alexander finally found her, Is madam okay?? Mrs Gale inquired and Alexander stopped for a while. Amelia smiled at Mrs Gale before dropping her head, obviously in a terrible mood. Please call the doctor toe over to the house and you go make some mint tea for madam After instructing Her what to do, Alexander climbed upstairs towards his room. What are we doing, heading to your room?? Amelia asked as she furrowed her brows at Alexander. Your room is under repair! Alexander saw and walked towards his door. And what happened to it?? Amelia asked with skepticism. I dont like the interiors so I decided to change it, Alexander said as he paused to stare down at the furious woman in his arms. And you didnt think to tell the upant of the room?? Amelia barked at Alex and she pitched his neck and Alexander let out a small groaning sound. Cmon, do you wanna kill your husband?? Alexander asked as he pushed his door open and walked in. Immediately put me down!!!! Amelia gritted her teeth in fury at the thought of sharing a bed with Alexander whom she had nned against! Sleep Deprivation Okay okay! Calm down! Alexander said and dropped her on the bed. Here, dont murder me! Alexander said and stared at the woman on his bed who had a ring nostril. Amelias eyes roamed around the room in obvious dissatisfaction. Alexander sighed a bit as he crouched down to her level. Amelia snorted at him and adjusted her sitting position, she looked the other way in no mood to talk to him. Alexander smiled a bitter smile as he looked up at Amelia, he knew he was a jerk for what he did. Amelia, i-I dont have an excuse for what I did, I was aplete jerk, that I know Alexander stared down for a while before looking at Her again. Amelia didnt want to hear those stuffs, she was already regretting having a weak heart that was throbbing for him. Hes so annoying but yet, she was already flustered and her strong opinion to get back at him was fluctuating and plummeting. it wasnt fair to her!. I could havee to get you first, no matter the circumstances and I really failed you in my duty as your husband, Im sorry! Alexander didnt know how his voice suddenly turned hoarse and low-pitched. He was literally begging her as he remained crouched down to her level. So sorry! Alexander said small in a whisper. Amelias eyes turn red slowly as her anger began to boil and she couldnt help but bit her lips to control the fury in her. W-why?? but You were the one who told me that Your foe was at the ball bu-but you still left me there-you-you didnte for me Amelias voice creaked as she said with tears threatening to fall down. Gosh Amelia! Dont cry in front of him!, Amelia tried to control her emotions. Mrs Gale just happened to have arrived at the door, when she heard Amelias cry, she pursed and gestured for the doctor toe down. Ah, Alexander is really low on EQ, such a dummy! Mrs Gale thought as she led the doctor downstairs, the doctor was grumbling as he made his way downstairs. Inside the room, Alexander couldnt say a word as he watched Amelia choke on her tears. His throat tightened as his chest felt so heavy with the pain of seeing her cry. Amelia wasnt crying at the fact that he left her, at least nothing happened but She was crying at the fact that he didnt choose her, her love wont be reciprocated. This was supposed to be a six months Matter but now, her foolish heart actually ran around. It calls for Alexander. Amelia sniffed her snot as she continued I know this whole thing is a fake and And that Ash is your girlfriend but.. Eh?-Wait! What?? Alexander was surprised by her statement, was this the reason she always said he was off the market and the reason she was keeping her distance from him for a while now?? Amelia shook her head I know, I know already She said as she looked down, she wasntfortable talking about this but she couldnt help but pour out her grieve. No, Ash is just a childhood friend, we arent dating, I dont love her and never will I Alexander said as he looked up at Amelia with a soften gaze. Amelia was surprised by that Y-you guys arent a couple?? Alexander shook his head and Amelia immediately felt vexed. Alexander thought maybe he had cleared the air but was startled by her vexed expression. You fool you left me for a friend??! That was much more painful for Amelia, if ash was his girlfriend and he left her, that was nothing to him, She would have been sad but agreed to that but now.. Ash was just a friend to him, how low Amelia was to Alexander?? She couldnt evenpare to a friend. I didnt do that on purpose, i-i, Im sorry Alexander said in shame as he lowered his head and Amelia hit his shoulder. Youre so evil Ameliained as she tried hard so her tears wouldnt fall. Alexander sniffed a bit and held Amelias hand but she tried to remove his hand on hers. Im sorry Amelia, I didnt mean to, its just that Ash has Heart disease since she turn Neenst year.. Alexander suddenly said and Amelia stopped in her track as she was surprised. Ash was sick??? so when I saw her got paled at the ball, I couldnt think straight as she has always being a good friend to me, so I couldnt neglect her as she needs my help at that time Alex said softly. Amelia wasnt a witch, She was beginning to see reasons, even if Ash was schematic but she doesnt deserve to die, Alex helping her out wasnt a bad thing. She would have done same thing. Shes still young and promising, she was once my secretary back when I was still working in America and now that she was transferred to Europe, shes automatically under my care and I couldnt turn my back on her.. Alexander kept exining himself so Amelia wouldnt hold too many grudges on him. He didnt like it when he saw that distain and distant look on her face, it tugged him and it really make him depressed. Before, he didnt care but maybe its this thing, called Love thats making him too uneasy when Amelia was being distant from him. Hey, dont get mad at hubby okay?? You know I wont deliberately hurt you, we were cool before even till this morning, dont get angry anymore.. Alexander pleaded at Amelia but she was still pouting as she mumbled to herself while facing to the side and Alexander found it cute as he felt the urge to pitch her cheek. Meanwhile downstairs, Mr walker, the doctor kept grumbling and Mrs Gale was already fed up with him. Old man, arent you observant?? Alexander is busy upstairs.. Mrs Gale reproached the insensitive Mr walker who was sitting on the sofa. Busy doing what?? mr walker Snorted as he turn to the other side with a Hmph.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Busy taming his little wife! Mrs Gale replied as a matter of fact. Ive got a busy schedule and I need my beauty sleepdy! Who attends to patients in the middle of the night?? Mr walker said as he was immediately pissed off. Mrs Gale was just in her early fifties and Mr walker was in histe fifties so there wasnt too much age gaps. Mrs Gale immediately gave him a hard re You are a doctor and the lives of the people should be your utmost concern! Mr walker found it funny does a dead person attend to people?? Till I die from sleep derivation that makes me a legend and a good doctor?? Notion Of Fainting Ashs face flushed with rage as she confronted the head doctor at the hospital. The room seemed to tremble with her fury. Alexanders decision to leave her side and meet Amelia had ignited a firestorm within her. How can Alexander abandon me here and go running to Amelia? Ash seethed, her voice dripping with resentment and hurt. She had tried every possible method to keep Alexander by her side that day, but Amelia had managed to ruin her ns. The head doctor, aposed and experienced individual, remained silent, maintaining a calm demeanor in the face of Ashs outburst. He understood the depth of her emotions and the pain she was experiencing, but he also knew thatshing out wouldnt solve anything. Seeing the doctors stoic silence only fueled Ashs anger further. She felt as though her frustrations were falling on deaf ears. What? Cant you talk? she berated him, her voice echoing through the room. The intensity of her words hung heavily in the air. The head doctor took a deep breath, his eyes meeting Ashs with a mix of empathy and firmness. Miss. Moon, please understand that this disy of anger wont help the situation, he calmly stated. His voice carried a gentle authority, attempting to diffuse the tension in the room. Ash who was sitting on the hospital bed, eyebrows furrowed, and stared at the doctor incredulously. She had expected him to side with her, to validate her feelings of betrayal. Instead, his words pierced through her anger, forcing her to confront the reality of the situation. Give up?! Ash eximed, her voice trembling with a mix of anger and desperation. How can you expect me to give up? I love him, and he chose her over me! Her voice cracked with the weight of her emotions, tears welling up in her eyes.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. The head doctor approached Ash with apassionate gaze, his voice softer now. Mrs. Moon, sometimes we have to ept that we cannot control the choices others make. Holding onto anger and resentment will only prolong your pain. Its important to focus on healing yourself and finding a path forward. His words hung in the air, and a heavy silence settled over the room. Ashs nostrils red in defiance as she snorted at the doctor, her anger unabated. She refused to ept his words of reason and remained steadfast in her possessiveness over Alexander. What? Alexander can only be mine and no one else! Ash dered, her expression contorted into an unsightly mask of possessiveness and determination. The intensity in her eyes sent a chill through the room. It was clear she was willing to go to any lengths to keep Alexander by her side. The head doctor sighed, understanding the depth of Ashs fixation. He had seen cases like this before, where love morphed into obsession, blinding individuals to reason and causing them to act out of desperation. He knew that pleading with Ash would likely fall on deaf ears, but he couldnt stand idly by. Mrs. Moon, I understand your feelings, but its important to remember that love cannot be forced or manipted, the doctor admonished gently. True love requires trust, respect, and the ability to let go if necessary. Holding onto someone against their will is not love; its a form of control. Ashs eyes narrowed, her determination unwavering. I dont care about all that. Ill do anything to get him back, she replied, her voiceced with stubbornness. Her fixation on Alexander had blinded her to the potential consequences of her actions. The head doctor took a step closer, his voice filled with concern. Mrs. Moon, I implore you to reconsider. Pursuing someone against their wishes can lead to further pain and damage. Its important to prioritize your own well-being and emotional health. But Ash remained resolute, dismissing the doctors pleas with a wave of her hand. She was consumed by her desire to reim what she believed was rightfully hers. In her mind, she was willing to cross any boundary, shoulder any consequence, to achieve her goal. The head doctor sighed deeply, recognizing the limits of his influence. Youre just a mere stupid doctor, dont think you know me and can advise me, go help your lowly self! Ash had a disgusted look on her face As she berated the doctor. Meanwhile at Easternnd.. Alexander remained crouched down, his gaze fixed on Amelia as she spoke. Her words, though delivered calmly, carried a hint of pain. He could sense the hurt he had caused her. I dont me you, but Im still hurt, Amelia expressed, her voice tinged with vulnerability. The weight of her emotions hung heavy in the air, and Alexander couldnt help but feel a pang of guilt. Anything you want, just say it, he responded bitterly, bracing himself for what she might ask of him. He knew his actions had consequences, and now he had to face them. Amelias eyes sparkled with a newfound determination, and Alexander felt a sudden wave of apprehension wash over him. He couldnt shake off the feeling that he had unwittingly made a deal with the devil. Lost in his thoughts, Alexander observed Amelia closely, trying to discern her intentions. Her neutral expression gave nothing away, leaving him puzzled and curious. She gestured for him to take a seat on the couch opposite her in his room, a silent invitation for a deeper conversation. Feeling a mixture of anticipation and anxiety, Alexanderplied, taking a seat on the couch as directed. He braced himself for the conversation thaty ahead, hoping to find some understanding and bridge the gap that had formed between them. As Alexander settled onto the couch, his mind raced with uncertainty. He knew Amelia well enough to understand that forgiveness didnte easily to her. The weight of his transgressions hung heavily in the air, and he couldnt help but fear the worst. He desperately hoped that Amelia wouldnt ask him to stay away from her. The mere thought sent a wave of panic through him, and he couldnt fathom a life without her presence. The idea was enough to make him entertain the notion of fainting as if it could somehow alleviate the impending pain. With bated breath, Alexander waited for Amelia to break the silence and reveal her intentions. He braced himself for the possibility of her delivering a harsh ultimatum or expressing her desire for distance. The uncertainty gnawed at him, amplifying his anxiety with each passing moment. As he nced at Amelia, his heart filled with a mix of regret and longing. At that moment, Alexander vowed to listen, to truly hear Amelias words. A Request Amelia made a conscious effort to hide her tion, not wanting to reveal the extent of her happiness at Alexanders attention. But deep inside, her heart couldnt help but flutter with joy. The mere fact that Alexander was paying attention to her brought a sweet feeling that warmed her from within. As she gazed into Alexanders eyes, love radiated from her own. The connection between them felt undeniable, and she couldnt help but revel in the emotions that surged through her. Amelias joy was further amplified by the knowledge that Alexander had nothing to do with Ash beyond friendship. Relief washed over her, knowing that her fears and suspicions were unfounded. Her heart went out to Ash, understanding that she was going through a difficult time and was unwell. Well, I want you to do me a favor, Amelia said, shifting her position on the bed, her voice filled with anticipation. Okay?! Alexander responded, his curiosity piqued. He hade to expect surprises from Amelia, as she always seemed to have something up her sleeve. Just as she was about to reveal her request, a suddenmotion erupted from outside, interrupting their conversation. The noise drew their attention away, causing a momentary pause in their interaction. Amelia and Alexander exchanged puzzled nces, wondering what could be causing the disturbance.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Mr. Walker, youre being too cheap now. Theyre having a conversation, Mrs. Gale said to Mr. Walker with obvious frustrationced in her tone, attempting to restrain Mr. Walker from heading upstairs. I need to go back already, but theyve been up in the room for a long time now, Mr. Walker grumbled, expressing his frustration with Alexander. His impatience and annoyance were evident in hisints. Mrs. Gale understood Mr. Walkers eagerness to leave and his growing frustration. However, she recognized the importance of giving Amelia and Alexander their privacy to resolve their conversation. She gently urged Mr. Walker to exercise patience and allow them the time they needed. Taking a deep breath, Mrs. Gale tried to provide some perspective. Remember, they might be discussing something important or working through a matter that requires their undivided attention. Its essential to respect their space Mrs Gale tried to exin it to Mr walker who kept grumbling all through Mr. Walker approached the door of Alexs room, familiar with the house as he served as Alexanders private doctor. As he reached for the doorknob, he contemted how they could keep him waiting for so long, his frustration growing. How can he keep me However, before he could finish his statement, the door abruptly swung open, revealing Alexanders face. Anger radiated from him as he red at Mr. Walker, clearly displeased with the disturbance. His little wife was about to make a demand but this old man had to spoil everything! Mr. Walker froze in mid-air, his hand still poised to knock on the door. The sudden appearance of Alexanders angry expression caught him off guard. Mr. Walker, Alexander said with obvious displeasure, his frustration evident in his voice. Alexander, Ive been here for the past thirty minutes now. I need to go home and rx my brain, Mr. Walker responded, standing his ground. Unaware of The fact that Mr Walker hade to the house earlier, Alexander was taken aback but still opened the door for the doctor to enter his bedroom and check up on Amelias swollen toes. With a nod of acknowledgment, Mr. Walker stepped into the room, his demeanor shifting from impatience to professionalism. He understood the urgency of attending to Amelias condition and focused on the task at hand. As Mr. Walker approached Amelia, he greeted her with a calm and reassuring smile. Hello, Amelia. Im sorry for the dy. Let me take a look at your swollen toes and assess how we can alleviate the difort. Amelia nodded, appreciating Mr. Walkers presence and expertise. She extended her feet, allowing the doctor to examine them closely. Amelia stared at the man at the door and Alexander looked at her intently. He was so sure already, He wanted Amelia in his life, she was his wife, for real. This wasnt about the contract, it was love. Mr. Walker carefully examined Amelias toes, gently palpating and assessing the severity of the swelling. With his medical knowledge and experience, he determined the appropriate course of action to provide relief and promote healing. He patiently exined the situation to Amelia, discussing the treatment options avable and addressing any concerns she had. Throughout the process, Mr. Walker maintained apassionate and attentive demeanor, ensuring Amelia felt heard and supported. Amelia appreciated his efforts, he was just as professional as thest time she visited the hospital when she was locked in the basement of her fathers house. Afterpleting his examination and providing the necessary rmendations, Mr. Walker reassured Amelia that her condition would improve with the prescribed treatment. He didnt forget to give her an ointment and some pain relief medicines. He emphasized the importance of rest, elevation, and any additional measures to reduce the swelling. As Mr. Walker prepared to leave, he turned to Alexander. Youre such an annoying brat, Mr Walker said with a scoff. He had been Alexanders Fathers personal doctor, but this Alexander was stressing him so much more than his father did. Alexander didnt pay any attention to the old man as he watched him leave. Alexander slowly walked towards Amelia who was sitting on the bed and was arranging the medicines on the table. Ahem Alexander coughed to get Amelias attention. Amelia looked at him for a while and sighed, she knew he wasnt at fault but she wouldnt let go so easily. Mr. Ron.. Amelia stated and Alexander raised a brow at her, what was she up to this time?? Why call him by his surname??! Alexander nevertheless stood close to her to hear her out. Youve been forgiven though.. Amelia continued before pausing in her statement. When Alexander heard that he had been Forgiven, he didnt start to wear a happy face because he wasnt sure what wasing next. And?.. Alexander asked to be more safe. I need your help with something! Amelia said seriously and Alexander was immediately intrigued as he paid more attention to her, waiting for her request. Its about Mrs. Ash Moon.. Amelia said as she searched Alexanders eyes to see his reaction. My Wife! Got it! Amelia yfully and somewhat seriously told Alexander, I want you to invite your friends over, including Ash. With uncertainty, Alexander asked, What are you up to, Amy? as he observed Amelia closely. Amelia shrugged indifferently and encouraged, Just do it already,e on. Alexander continued to scan Amelia, noticing that she was deep in thought. Amelia was really a tactful woman. It was evident that Amelias request was not a simple or trivial one. She had something up her sleeve.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Are you nning something? Alexander asked, unable to contain his curiosity any longer. Just spill the beans already! Alexander was already curious. Seeing that Amelia wasnt willing to say anything. Alexander gazed at Amelia intently before eventually nodding in agreement, expressing his understanding with a simple okay. Amelia maintained a subtle, cunning smile as she locked eyes with Alexander. She asked, Can you make it tomorrow? Alexander immediately frowned at Amelias impatience. Shaking his head in disagreement, Alexander replied, No, you have to rest first. Your toes are swollen As he mentioned this, a wave of regret washed over him once more, and his voice softened as he leaned down closer to her. Does it still hurt a lot? His voice emerged in a low, hoarse tone. Like autumn weather, cool to the ear, melting ones soul as his tone rhymes with his softened expression. Amelia didnt want him to wallow in that guilt anymore she just shook her head and said Not really, getting better! Amelia didnt know how to console a person so her statement only made Alexander feel worse. Amelia cleared her throat So go invite them! Dont be in a haste, they wont be able to make it here Alexander said as a matter of fact and Amelia immediately frowned. She didnt know what she meant to Alexander but she decided to use her trump card. With a vexed expression, Amelia said You should be doing my bidding because Im not forgiving you so easily, you have to do what I want! Amelia watched Alexanders expression, She didnt know if she was considered somebody worthy of Alex. She waited for him to frown, shout at her, or immediately walk out but to her surprise, he just nodded while swallowing a lump in his throat. Okay, Ill go give them a call now! Alexander said calmly and got up from his position. Amelia watched him stand up without getting angry or had any sort of reluctance in his face. Hes Good these days! Amelia thought as she watched him go out. Weird.. Amelia applied the ointment on her toes and rxed on the bed for a while and she eventually fell asleep. Meanwhile, Alexander walked to his study room immediately brought out his phone, and invited George to his house the following day. Whats the asion?? You never invite me to your house on a good day, I onlye there on my own will but every time, you leave me in the living room to feed my eyes with the interiors as you wont even pay me any heeds George snorted and keptining of Alexanders past behaviors. Juste, you talk too much, Alexander said so calmly and reservedly as he stared out the window. It was dark already. George sighed As long as there is food, have Mrs Gale cook her special Meatballs and Some dumplings, George said, hungrily as he began to imagine the sight of the dumplings. Youre a mess, George! Alexander said and ended the call directly. He sighed a bit as he continued to look out of the window. Should he call Ash to ask her how she was?? But he seemed to realize something, Amelia didnt like Ash, even at the ball, when Ash hade to meet Amelia, she didnt respond to her andpletely ignored her. He just pretended as if he didnt see her though but he was aware of that fact. But then again, what was Amelia nning by inviting Ash over to the House?? Amy.. Alexander muttered as a small smile emerged on his face wanna bully someone tomorrow! He had known this, Amelia wasnt gonna let go of Ash. His work would be easy then, he had to control the situation and make sure nothing went wrong. But then again Alexander had to invite Ash over to the house so he dialed her number but he didnt allow it to ring as he immediately ended it. He instead called George again. Youre so annoying yonno, ending the call on.. Invite Ash as well, tell her toe to my house for a small get-together After finishing his piece, Alexander ended call. This-this little. George gritted his teeth in anger as he looked at his phone screen. Whats the matter with Ash?? George thought for a bit before dropping his eyes to the floor. Alexander didnt want any more misunderstanding from Amelia so he decided to be scarce to Ash but he wasnt gonna turn his back on her though. Just setting a little boundary. After making preparations, Alexander came down from his study to the dining room to have dinner. After eating his full, Alexander sat on the chair for a while before his phone rang and he got up from his chair. Hello.. Alexander said as he headed upstairs. Alex.. where are you?? Ashs weak voice came from the other side, seemingly weak. Whats the problem?? If youre still feeling sick, then tell the doctor, you have to take care of your health Alexander said as he stood for a while. Ash smiled a bit from the other side, umm just wanted to let you know that Ive arrived at the hotel, it was nothing serious, just a reaction Ash said from the other side with a small pitiful voice. Alexander frowns a bit before saying Did George tell you anything?? Ash was a bit sad that Alexander just changed the topic like that but she was a bit d that he invited her for lunch at his house. Yeah, he told me that you want us at your house tomorrow Ash replied. Alexanders mouth twitched I am not the host.. Ash frowned deeply as she asked again Who-who is.??.. Ash had a bad premonition as she had already guessed who was but wanted to hear it from the horses mouth. Was it Amelia?? Then what does she want from her?? Alexander said with a refined voice, with a neutral expression My wife is the host.. Hate And Venom The next day, Amelia had miraculously recovered from her injury, and Ash and George arrived at the house. Mrs. Gale, had gone out of her way to prepare avish feast for the asion. The atmosphere was filled with joy and anticipation as everyone gathered around the table. The dining room was adorned with beautiful decorations, and the aroma of the freshly cooked food filled the air. The table was overflowing with a variety of delicacies, ranging from delectable appetizers to mouthwatering main courses and decadent desserts. It was evident that Mrs. Gale had put a lot of effort and love into preparing this feast. Heyy aunt Gale, Howve you been doing?? George walked towards Mrs Gale leisurely with a smile dancing on his lips. Ah! Boy youre doing well now, see how tall you are and also handsome Mrs Galeughed along with George. But not as good looking as You! Good child, such a sweet mouth Who didnt like to getpliments?? Mrs Gale wasnt exceptional when Complimented. As they sat down to enjoy the meal, the conversation flowed easily. George, always the life of the party, regaled everyone with his witty anecdotes and charming personality. Laughter echoed through the room as he shared his amusing adventures. However, the dinner took an awkward turn when Ash, seemingly unaware of the difort she was causing, began reminiscing about her childhood experiences with Alexander. She shared stories of their escapades, from the time they stumbled upon a hidden treasure in their backyard to the time they got lost in the woods during a family camping trip. Alex do you remember when you fell in a well that day?? Gosh aunt Ron was scolding Alexander throughout the day! Ash giggled as she took her fork Georgeughed along as well and whoever talked with Alex that day, had to be in a no talking terms for two days straight and Liam fell victim haha George began to reminisce with Ash as they talked and enjoyed the meal. Alexander studied Amelias expression, it seems his assignment throughout that day was to keep studying her expressions to know if she was angry or not. Amelia felt a pang of jealousy rising within her. It was no secret that Ash had always harbored feelings for Alexander, and her constant reminders of their shared history only served to amplify Amelias insecurities. She discreetly nced at Alexander, hoping to find some reassurance in his expression, but his face revealed nothing. Okay thats e enough already, I dont dwell in the past but the present Alexander suddenly said when noticing Amelias difort and the side gazes she was giving him. Mrs. Gale, sensing the tension in the room, attempted to lighten the mood by interjecting with amusing anecdotes of her own. She recounted tales from her own youth, sharing embarrassing moments and funny mishaps that brought smiles to everyones faces. Despite Mrs. Gales efforts, the awkwardness lingered. It was clear that Ashs unintentional insensitivity had struck a Nerve. Ash snorted as she looked at Amelia who was eating, sitting beside Alexander. Very soon, she would be the one next to Alex. Amelia struggled to maintain herposure, trying to push aside the feelings of doubt and insecurity that threatened to consume her. As the evening wore on, Amelia made a conscious effort to shift the focus of the conversation. She shared stories of her own adventures, highlighting the times she had ovee challenges and achieved personal milestones. Her intention was to remind everyone, including herself, of her own worth and the unique bond she shared with Alexander. Alexander smiled as he gazed deeply at her eyes with a small smile, thinking when was the right time to confess his feelings for Amelia. Amelia caught his gaze and raised both brows at him. Alexander let out a small chuckle when seeing her cute expression, it was rear to see Amelias cute side, she always had that strong and feisty look on. Seeing that smile on Alexanders face, Amelias mind began to wander as she flushed on the cheek. Whats he looking at??This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Ashs gaze caught their secret connection and conversation they were having. She pressed her fork on the te with a terrible expression as she red hard at Amelia with heaps of Hatred mixed with Anger. George nudged Ash on the arm that broke her from her reverie whats wrong with you?? You look so red Ash gave him an awkward smile and shook her head. No Im okay Alexander raised his head from his food and looked at Ash, his eyes didnt linger on her as he turn to Amelia and dropped a dessert of cake on her te. Amelia showed a small smile as she dig her fork into the cake So yummy! Amelia muttered as she taste it and let the softness melt in her mouth. Alexander loved that satisfied look on her face, his lip tinted up with a grin. He had really changed a lot since he discovered his love for Amelia and when he had firsthand experienced the feeling of when Amelia wasnt with him, even if it was just for few minutes, he wasnt happy. He knew that suffocating feeling. Okay how about we y a game?? George decided to clear the already tensed Air as he rmended they y a game. Amelia smiled at that, That was what she had being waiting for so she didnt waste anytime to say how about a game of truth and Dare In every gathering of friends, There was must be a Game. That she knew! George who was always a fan of such childish games, immediately agreed to it Okay, Im totally in Amelia smiled at George before turning to Alexander that was sitting beside her. George got up from his chair to go look for an empty bottle Alexander wasnt a fan of games, but when seeing Amelias expectant eyes, he sighed. Amelia nudged his arm a bit with a probing gaze, Alexander looked at her in the eyes before leaning towards her. Amelia stiffened a bit when She saw Alexandering towards her, what was he going to do?? Alexander leaned towards her ear and whisper Ill only be ying this game because of you want me to, but what would I get as a reward?? Amelia swallowed hard. A certain person opposite them, had a ring nostril and a cold eyes filled with hate and venom, ready to kill the someone who stole her man Sea Of Fire,Mountain Of Blades Amelia knew that this game was important and she couldnt let go of this opportunity. Aint you being too petty now?? Amelia whispered back and Alexander smirked Alexander sat back on the chair with a small smile on. Youre my wife and I have to be petty with youAlexander said with a roguish smile. Ash could hear what he said and her heart clenched, why was Alexander behaving this way to Amelia?? Ash stared at Amelia with hate, shes the cause of his behavior! What had Amelia done to Her Alexander?! Amelia was so sly. Ash thought as she cleared her throat. Alex i Ash started as she tried to break Alexanders attention from Amelia. Without even looking at Ashs direction, Alexander said to Amelia you still havent told me what youll give me in return Amelia stared at Alexanders eyes, with a lots of questions for him.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. What was Alexander doing?? Ash was talking to him but he didnt even look her way! Ashs face turn red from embarrassment as she made a tight fist under the table. Cmon Wifey whats my reward?? Alexander turn towards Amelia with a soft gaze. Amelia immediately knew that Alexander must have known her ns. So she just yed Along as well. Shell just ask himter. Dont worry about that darling hubby, its gonna be special Amelia said sweetly as she gazed at Ash from the corner of her eyes. The corner of her lips hooked up into a smirk, she loved that expression of hers. Seeing Ash face turn pink and purple out of fury, made her day. Alexander knew that Amelia was just going along with him but he was nevertheless happy with how Amelia addressed him. Darling hubby! Hmm He didnt know but he loved the feeling of helping Amelia even if it was to bully his childhood friend. Ahh poor Ash. He wasnt aware that Ash liked him so he didnt think by acting out a Romantic moment with Amelia could cause any psychological damages to Ash. He didnt know Amelias reason to Act like couples in front of Ash but he didnt question her and went along with her. If you say so.. Alexander shed a smile at Amelia and she swallowed hard with a new resolve to ask Alexanderter the reason he was helping her. Because the Alexander she knew wouldnt partake in such things with her. Alexander adjusted his position on the chair, sitting facing Ash, he ced his hand on the table as he asked. Ah sorry about that, i and my wife like to be yful at times that we tend to be in our world and anything around us wont matter Huh you were saying something earlier??Alexander asked with raised eyebrows and uncertaintyced in his tone. Amelia muttered a ouch under her breath, Alexander was more good at this, he was a master at bullying people. Ashs expression remained neutral as she bared her fingers into her palm, so he wasnt listening to her anyways?? Alexander turned to Amelia when Ash didnt respond whats wrong with her?? Alex asked softly and Amelia shrugged her shoulder just let her be, maybe something happened Amelia said in other to spite Ash. Just then, George came in with an empty bottle Ah it too me long to find this bottleGeorge sat on the chair. Where did you find the bottle?? Alexander asked as he got up from the chair. I asked a guard to go get me one! George said as he gathered his things. They all swapped sitting positions, Alexander was two seat away from Amelia and George was opposite ash. George ced the bottle on the table. Everybody ready?? George asked as he had a grin on his face. Just spin the bottle already! Amelia said as she sat down. Ash sat well, sessfully masking her expression and was now looking all drilled. Here we go!!! Woah!! George spin the bottle and everyones gaze fixated on the spinning bottle. Just then it was ended up pointing at George. Amelia cleared her throat and asked Truth or Dare?? Truth! George said without further ado. Amelia almost rolled her eyes, there was nothing to ask him so she just asked do you actually like being friends with Alexander?? Alexander looked at her with a raised brow, was he now a charity case??! George snorted at Alexander sometimes I do, while sometimes, I definitely regret it cause hes a jerk sometimes Heyyy!! Alexander groaned at George and Ameliaughed a bit. Its a game alright?? Amelia said with a small smile and she got ready spin the bottle. Alexander rxed on his chair with a sulky face, Amelia found it amusing that he was actually sulking. Ash was so preupied with her thoughts as she felt invincible in the midst of them. So here Ie.. Amelia said and spin the bottle again and it face Ash and George. George asked Ash same question and Ash said Dare George smiled a bit I dare you to stay away from Alexander for two weeks! Ashs expression didnt change as she said give me the bottle of hard alcohol George made an O mouth and handed her the bottle of Vodka. Failure to do what you were dared to.. the person must drink full bottle of Vodka. Amelia really gave a thumb up for Ash this time around, just to remain by Alexanders side, she choose to Drink this bottle of alcohol. What level of love those Ash have for Alexander. Alexander frowned as Ash drank from the bottle of Vodka. Ash thats enough, youre sick so you cant be drinking too much alcoholAlexander said after a while, he looked at Amelias direction as if trying to exin to her that he didnt mean anything aside from what he said. There was nothing behind his statement. Amelia looked at him before looking ahead, not gazing at his direction again. Alexander wished Amelia wasnt angry this time so he just kept quiet. Ashs face turn red due to therge quantity of drink I can finish it, not to worry she immediately down the rest vodka. Alexander didnt say anything more as he just maintained a calm face. Lets go on George said and ready to spin the bottle. Ash cleaned her mouth that had small droplets of liquor on it, she gazed at Amelia meaningfully. No matter what it takes, she was gonna be with Alexander even if it meant walking in a sea of fire and mountain of des. Seductive And Sinful George spin the bottle and it faced Alexander and Amelia. Alexander was to ask her the question. Amelia turn towards Alexander and Alexander gazed at her Truth or Dare?? Amelia sighed before saying Truth.. Alexander remained quiet for a while as he looked at her with undivided attention. Ash watched Alexander from the side, hes changed after the ball. Whats wrong with him! Alexander slowly opened his lips and asked Are you in love with someone?? Amelias throat immediately went to her head as she stared wide eyes at Alexander. Why was he asking her that??! It was just the four of them there, if Alexander could ask her such question in front of Ash, thats to say, Ash was aware of their marriage condition. Alexander gazed at Amelia deeply, trying to decipher her thoughts as he watched and read all her expressions. Amelia shook her head, she wasnt gonna say that but it was a game of truth, so she just replied Yes! Ash immediately frown, as she thought of the possibility of Amelia loving Alexander. That wont be possible, never!! Alexanders eyes flickered as he asked quickly whos the person?? Trying not to sound anxious. George rolled his eyes at Alexander dont break rules, its one question at a time! No just this onest question! Alexander replied as he looked at George. Thats the rule of the game Alex! Amelia said, happy that Alexander wont be able to continue to interrogate her. Alexander sighed bitterly, he wished it falls on him again so he could ask his question. Is there another guy Amelia knows from him?? Alexander thought as he shook his head to clear his kind and focused on the game, wishing for a next time. Alexander spin the bottle and it faced him and Ash. Ash sat up straight as she looked at Alexander. She had to get answers today, Amelia knew Ash was of no good. Ash stared at Alexander with aplicated look. Truth or Dare?? Ash asked Alex and he rxed on his chair. Truth! He replied and Amelia looked at Ash. What was she trying to pull off now?? Ash swallowed hard and asked Do you love Amelia?? The Dining room suddenly became eerie and pin drop silent. Amelia looked at Alexander. George could feel the tension in the air, He was aware of Ash love for Alexander since they were little. Why ask this question of all time and ces?? George almost face palmed his face. Ash stared at Alexander, she wasnt this always petty but she had to know, she was confused at his behavior since yesterday, she had to get answers and know if her efforts are worth it. Amelia looked at the side profile of the man sitting not too far from her. What would be his answer?? Amelia was aware of the fact that Alexander wouldnt be able to love her but she still had a small hope within her. Alexander noticed Amelias gaze on him so he said No.. Amelias throat immediately dropped to her stomach as the boom hit her hard. She tried to remain calm and not seemingly affected by his confirmation that he doesnt love her. Ash let a triumph smile emerged on her face as she rest her back on the chair and shed Amelia a daring and Victorious smile. Alexander looked at Amelia whose expression didnt change even after hearing his words. She doesnt even care about him! She didnt even love him to care! But then, his eyes fell on her hand under the table, it had turn white due to the clenching of it, her fist was looking so tight. Alexanders heart beat slowly, she was affected even so, that means she must have feelings for him right?? Alexander was a bit happy, but a bit sad that he caused Amelia to be so moody. He couldnt say it now, what if Amelia doesnt love him?? What if he had misjudged her and confesses, and then she might be distant from him and things might turn awkward and ugly for them. Amelia swallowed hard and breathed in and tried so hard to maintain her stoic face. George cleared his throat lets begin please?? Ash nodded at him with a smile. Ahh Poor Amelia, Alexander doesnt love you. Ash thought as she watched the bottle keep to spin on the table. Soon it pointed at George and Amelia again. George asked Amelia Truth or Dare?? Amelia was so angry for some reasons best known to her. Dare!! Amelia scowled out but in a low tone, obviously in a spoilt mood. Alexander noticed that and turn towards her direction. George cleared his throat Kiss the first person close to you! He said with a small smile. Amelia immediately frowned more deeply as she turn to her other side, Alexander was sitting at the other side of her and Ash was not too far as well. Was she gonna kiss ash now?? Amelia felt the urge to puke. She turn to look at the man who just spoilt and ruin her mood. Never was she gonna kiss Alexander after what he said just now.! Amelia was so bitter, she was about to reach out for the Vodka when Alexander suddenly grabbed the vodka on the table. Amelia looked at him, was he going to down a full bottle of vodka for her?? Amelia was not only stunned but embarrassed. This! If he was willing to drink a bottle of vodka for her, was that not love already?? Then what was he saying?? Amelia watched Alexander drop the drink on the ground and he said; You dont need to thank me, Ill help you! Alexander didnt say a word more as he leaned on Amelia Ash immediately frown as she watch the scene begin unfold. Amelia flushed red as she felt Alexanders breath tickle on her skin and cheek. She didnt n for this not at all! Alexanders nose was just few centimeters away from Amelias nose. Alexander said in a low voice, sounding so seductive and sinful Just savor it With that, Alexanders lip captured Amelias lower lip in a kiss, he leaned on Amelia more and snaked his arms around her waist. He kissed her lower lip before kissing the upper one, so slowly as if trying to get all the sweetness. Not wanting to miss any part of her taste. Amelias eyes were just open, she couldnt reciprocate his kiss as she was too stunned to even react but she felt him work in her lips like he owned it and it was his workshop. Alexander licked Amelias lip slowly while wiping the remaining saliva on her mouth.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. All Of You Are Dead Alexander slowly withdrew from her, he licked his lower lip with a sweet expression on. She was so sweet, guess he had found his new addiction. He wanted to go in for more. But now wasnt the right time. He reminded himself. Amelia was still so stunned to react, just looking at Alexander who had a cheeky smile on. Ash was at the verge of copsing due to anger, Alexander just kissed Amelia and not her, it was so suffocating and Disgusting to her. How can??! Amelia was the root cause of all these. She must act fast before everything slips out of her fingers. George blushed a bit as he couldnt clear his mind from that Event of just now. He slowly dropped his phone on the table after using it. Alexander looked so hot when kissing Amelia. Alexander turned to Amelia who was still looking at him, he shrugged at her while blinking his eyes innocently. As if saying, I was only helping you! George cleared his throat as that broke Amelias reverie and she flushed red. She was already regretting that she didnt obey Alexanders words.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. She could have Savored it..! His lip were so calling. But she was angry that he kissed her after saying that he doesnt love her, what was the meaning of that??!!! Okay lets continue George said but Ash wasnt in the mood, nevertheless she couldnt just say that. It was just a kiss, Amelia should enjoy it while itsts. Ash contemted within her as she thought of what to do next. Amelia was still red from earlier but she tried to clear her throat to get back to her real self, because to her, this wasnt her. She wasnt this feminine to get ticklish because of a kiss. Amelia swallowed hard and face the spinning bottle. Alexander concealed his smile when he saw the effect he had on her. Her redness and shy side. Just then, the bottle pointed to George and Amelia. Not again..!! George groaned and looked at Amelia who asked him truth or dare. Dare! George said after a while and Amelia smirked a bit. Dont have a condition now, Ill save that for next time Amelia said as she gazed at Ash who was staring intently at her too. Fire sparked and thunder roared as they locked gazes together, Amelia looked at Ash with contempt and Ash stared back at Amelia with a scheming and Hateful eyes. Alexander frowned at Amelia and Amelia turn to look at him with a what? Expression. Just give him something to do, like lick my shoes, give you his sport car or You-you- you evil!!! George scowled at Alexander who only raised a brow at him. Just giving her suggestions! Look over here Amy he cant possibly be someone you wanna ask a Favour fromter on, Im here Alexander was filled with jealousy when he heard that Amelia wanted to store Favour with George. He should be the one!! Amelia almost face palmed as she looked at Alexander speechlessly you arent the one Im ying the game with so just leave it and wait for your turn Amelia said but Alexander didnt agree to that. They continue to argue, Amelia didnt want to use this opportunity anyhow so she didnt agree to what Alexander said. Alexanderter resigned with a pouting face, he fold both hands on his chest as he sat on the chair. George took out his phone and secretly snapped his face and post it in the group chat of the Alphas with a tag: Alexander jealous of me because I owe his wife a Favour, his sulking face ughing emoji) Elliot:Lol, whats the wife?? A sorceress?? She must be something for our boss to look like this!! Gary:Cant believe Ill ever see this side of The Almighty Alexander Ron. Dagger:So jealous of Sly (George) that he could see this in real life. Phoenix (Liam): .. George almost rolled his eyes when he saw Liams empty message, he didnt say anything. George was concealing his smile as he bend his head and continue checking the messages. He drank a mouthful of water while searching through the messages. And the smile dropped a bit when he saw: Don X:Should have being aware Im in the group too. You all Are Dead!! George immediately coughed out the water in his mouth, he stared opposite him to see a very fierce re from Alexander. Amelia wasnt aware of what was happening as she raised a brow at George. Ashs face was unsightly, she was still in the group but she couldntment because if she was to say it wasnt true, she might look suspicious and jealous. She gripped her phone tightly as she read through the chats. I-um-Im going home already!George said and quickly got up to run for his life. We-what about the game?? Amelia asked but George had already reached the door My wife just texted me toe home already! Georges voice came from the door before a loud sound came from the door as he had closed the door and left. Ash was already tipsy so she staggered and got up from the chair, She somehow managed to find her purse. Seeing that Ash was drunk, Alexander got up to help her. Didnt I tell you not to drink that vodka?? Alexander scolded Ash like a father scolding his little daughter who went against him. Amelia swallowed hard but didnt get angry, she was the host and had the responsibility of taking care of her guest. Amelia got up as well and walked towards them. Alexander nodded as a gesture for Amelia toe closer. Hold her other hand!Alexander said to Amelia whoplied and held Ashs arm. You-let go.. hey let go off me!!Ash said tipsily as she tried to break Amelias grip off her. Amelia frown at her and release her arm, Seeing that, Alexander also let go off ashs arm. Ash eyes immediately turn red when Alexander let go off her I wasnt talking to you Alex. you can Since you dont want my wife to help you, who am I to help you then?? Alexander said, not because he was being petty but because he didnt like it when Ash shouted at Amelia earlier. Rush Of Emotions Ash didnt know how she got to the hotel but she knew she just arrived at the hotel. Ash was all sprawled on the bed like a log. She was so tipsy as she dozed off with a heavy heart. Meanwhile, in Easternnd, Amelia opened Alexanders room door and walked in and Alexander followed behind closely. Amelia tried not to get mad At Alexander for Carrying Ash out of the house to the car outside. How Ash wrapped herself in Alexanders arms earlier was so annoying. Alexander did not want to help Ash when Ash shouted at Amelia but when he saw her trip and started puking. He had to have Mrs Gale clean up the mess carry her to the car and have his driver, drive her to the hotel. Amelia sighed as she sat on the edge of the bed, seemingly ufortable. Alexander noticed this and said You can sleep on the bed, Ill sleep in the couch Oh.. thank you then Amelia happily spread on the bed as she wrapped herself in the duvet. She looked like a Fish roll, And she was small on the bed. Alexander grumbled and walked towards the couch, He took off his shoes and socks. He dragged on his tie and removed It, He rested his head on the edge of the small couch, it was really ufortable sleeping on a small couch. He kept turning and re-adjusting his position. He stretched his neck to look at thedy but she was already sleeping soundly on the big wide bed. So evil.. Alexander muttered as he sighed and rested on it. Soon sleep washed over him as he dozed off and fell into dreand. Not too long, it began raining outside and it was so chilly inside the room with the Air conditioner on. Amelia slowly rose from her bed, drawn by the sound of rain pounding against the windowpane. She pulled back the curtains and was met with the sight of heavy rain pouring down from the darkened sky. It seemed as though the heavens had opened up, unleashing a torrential downpour upon the world below. As she shifted her gaze from the window, her eyes fell upon the couch where a fine, muscr many curled up, fast asleep. A warm and affectionate feeling welled up within her, and she couldnt help but admire his figure. It was a sight that brought her both joy and a sense of longing. Determined to make the room morefortable on this chilly night, Amelia decided to turn off the air conditioner. She made her way across the room, careful not to disturb the peaceful slumber of the man she hade to care for so deeply. As she approached him, she crouched down next to the couch, her eyes fixated on his peaceful face. A surge of emotion swept over her as she took in his handsome features. There was an undeniable allure about him that captivated her heart. She couldnt help but think of Ash, someone who had desired this man so intensely that she was willing to risk it all. It was a testament to how irresistible he truly was. Lost in her thoughts, Amelia gently reached out and brushed a lock of hair away from his forehead. The sound of thunder echoed outside, its powerful roars blending with the raindrops cascading against the window. Thebination of the storms intensity and the mans serene slumber created a contrasting and intriguing atmosphere within the room. As the night deepened, the room became colder, and the rain continued to pour relentlessly. Amelia found herself torn between the desire to stay by his side and the need to seek warmth. She contemted waking him, but the tranquil expression on his face convinced her to let him rest a little longer. With a heavy sigh, Amelia rose from her crouched position and decided to retrieve a nket from the closet. Wrapping herself in itsforting embrace, she returned to the couch, she draped the duvet on his body, taking a seat beside the sleeping man. She watched over him, her eyes asionally wandering towards the window, where shes of lightning illuminated the darkened surroundings.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. The storm outside matched the tumultuous emotions swirling within Amelia. She couldnt deny the bond that had formed between them, nor the undeniable attraction she felt. It was as if their connection transcended the physical realm, intertwining their lives amidst the chaos Amelia slowly used the duvet on her to cover him up, She walked towards him and gazed at his face for a while. Whyre you so good looking huh?? Amelia muttered as she kept gazing at him, She was so trapped by his charms. Amelia couldnt tear her eyes away from his face, a mixture of admiration, affection, and curiosity washing over her. His features seemed like a work of art, each detail carefully crafted to perfection. The way his dark, tousled hair framed his face, the chiseled jawline, and the gentle curve of his lips; everything about him seemed to captivate her. As she continued to gaze at him, her mind wandered to Ash, the person who professed such possessiveness for Alexander. Amelia couldnt help but feel a twinge of jealousy and insecurity. She wondered what had transpired between Ash and Alexander, and how deep their connection had been. Amelia made a mental note to Talk to George about their bet. However, she pushed those thoughts aside for the moment. It was not the time to dwell on Ash or the bet she had made with George. Instead, Amelia needed to focus on the present, on the man lying before her, his slumber undisturbed by her presence. Just as she was about to gather her thoughts and rise from her crouched position, a strong yet gentle hand wrapped around her wrist, stopping her in her tracks. Startled, Amelia turned her head and found herself locking eyes with Alexander, his gaze filled with a mixture of surprise and curiosity. Their eyes locked for a fleeting moment, and a silent connection formed between them. It was as if time stood still, and the world around them faded away, leaving only their intertwined gaze. In that instance, Amelia felt a rush of emotions: anticipation, vulnerability, and a strange sense of exhration. Amelia, he whispered, his voice husky and filled with sleep. What are you doing here? The sound of his voice sent shivers down her spine Are You Uncomfortable With Me?? She found herself momentarily speechless. The truth was, she didnt have an answer. She had been drawn to him,pelled by an invisible force she couldnt resist. I I couldnt sleep, she finally managed to stammer, her voice barely above a whisper. The storm its so loud. Alexander released her wrist, his hand falling back to his side. A small smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he studied her intently. It was a smile that spoke volumes, expressing both understanding and something different. He knew Amelia was probably lying. Amelias eyes widened, and a blush crept across her cheeks, betraying her embarrassment at being caught in the act of admiring him. Amelia shifted on her feet, feeling self-conscious under Alexanders gaze. She cleared her throat, attempting to regain herposure, but her voice came out slightly shaky. Um I I was just I mean, arent you cold? You should go back to sleep. Her words stumbled out in a jumble, a mix of embarrassment and concern for his well-being. Alexander couldnt help but find her bashfulness endearing. Her attempt to brush off the situation and divert his attention away from her checking him out amused him. It was a reminder of the sweet and innocent side of their rtionship. A gentle smile yed on Alexanders lips as he reached out, gently grasping Amelias hand to keep her from darting away like a startled kitten. Amelia, he said softly, his toneced with warmth, theres no need to be embarrassed. Youre my wife, and its perfectly natural to appreciate one anothers beauty. Amelias eyes widened at his words, and she felt her cheeks grow warmer. Despite being married, she still found herself feeling shy and self-conscious about admiring her husband. It was a vulnerability that she hadnt fully embraced yet. Alexander let go of Amelias hand, allowing her the freedom to retreat if she wished. He could sense her unease and didnt want to push her beyond herfort zone. However, he hoped to convey his eptance and admiration for her in return. Amelia took a step back, feeling torn between her desire to escape the situation and her longing to stay connected with Alexander. She hesitated for a moment, contemting her next move. As she looked into his eyes, she saw nothing but warmth and understanding, encouraging her to open up.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Taking a deep breath, Amelia mustered up the courage to speak up. But Amelias words hung in the air, Alexanders gaze softened, and a hint of appreciation sparkled in his eyes. The concern in her voice touched him deeply, and he realized how fortunate he was to have such a caring partner. After a brief pause, Alexander finally spoke, his voice filled with warmth. Having trouble sleeping?? He asked instead, His words were sincere, and he couldnt deny the appeal of joining her in bed on this chilly night. Amelias eyes widened in surprise at his question. She hadnt expected him to ask after her and how she was fairing, and now she felt a mix of excitement and nervousness fluttering in her stomach. Oh, well, not really! she stammered, trying to regain herposure. Arent you cold?? Wannae to the bed??.. I mean, thats if youre okay with it. Its just I didnt want you to be ufortable out here. Her voice trailed off, and she looked down, feeling a blush creeping up her cheeks. Alexandersughter filled the room, a melodic sound that reverberated through Amelias being. It was augh that dispelled the tension and brought ease to the atmosphere. Amelia, theres no need to be so flustered, he said, his voice gentle. Id be happy to join you in bed tonight. Its much warmer there, after all. Maybe Amelia was starting to be a pervert as she felt his words held a deeper meaning, Amelia quickly made her way to the bed, feeling a mix of anticipation and nervousness. She settled herself under the covers, her heart pounding in her chest. She couldnt help but steal a nce at Alexander, who was already making his way towards her. As he climbed into bed, Amelias eyes met his, and a wave of warmth washed over her. The electricity between them was palpable, and they both felt the maic pull drawing them closer. Theyy side by side, their bodies almost touching, yet hesitant to bridge the remaining gap. In the silence of the room, Amelia could hear the sound of their breathing, harmonizing as they both tried to findfort in this newfound intimacy. She dared to steal another nce at Alexander again and he was just staring at her. Sleep already or do you want to hear a bed time story?? Alexander teased and Amelia quickly turned to the other side and tried to conceal her red face, thank Goodness it was dark in the room, else Alexander would have caught her expressions right now. Amelia was already making some progress in calming down her racing heart when suddenly Alexander drew closer to Amelia and wrapped his arms around her waist while cing his face on the nook of her neck. Amelia immediately stiffened up and Alexander was not happy about that though. It only proved to him that he was just a husband to her by name, he wasnt someone near Amelias heart. Are you ufortable with me holding you like this?? Alexander asked as his voice rolled out like a melody. It was so hoarse and fragile. Amelias tensed body relieved only a bit but she wasnt at all ufortable so she nodded Umm Alexander sighed, Let go of her waist, and turned to the other side to sleep on his own. How can he make Amelia fall for him?? That was something he should know, but he wasnt experienced in that area. He thought he loved Hry, but after falling for Amelia, he knew it wasnt love he felt for Hry, his ex girlfriend. Hry was the one who had confessed her feelings for him and he epted her. It was so easy and besides, during their Rtionship period, He was always busy and didnt feel the need to do much intimate stuff with her. The few times they had sex were rare and after doing the deeds, he didnt see anything special in what they had done. He always felt as if it was his right to have sex with her as he was her boyfriend then. But it was different from Amelia, he wanted to give her the best, and he didnt want to force her into anything she wasntfortable with. And the feeling of chasing after her was both crucial and drilling. Alexander sighed slowly and faced the other side as he fell into deep thought. Burdened Amelia sat at her desk, engrossed in her work, anxiously awaiting the arrival of Alexanders schedule from his former assistant, Sam. The morning had been unusually quiet, devoid of the usual banter and warmth they shared during theirmute to the office. Unable to ignore her curiosity, Amelia stole a nce at Alexander, who was seated in a chair with his head bowed down on his desk. Concern etched across her face as she observed his weary appearance. Alexander, known for his vibrant energy and enthusiasm, seemed uncharacteristically weak and dispirited. Amelia continued to steal nces at him, her worry growing with each passing moment. As Alexander slowly lifted his head from the desk, Amelia caught a glimpse of his solemn expression and the heaviness in his chest as he let out a deep sigh, leaning back in his chair. It was evident that something was amiss. Unable to contain her concern any longer, Amelia mustered the courage to approach Alexander. She walked over to his desk, her footsteps hesitant but filled with genuine care, hoping to offer somefort amid his apparent distress. Alexander, Amelia called out softly, her voice filled with empathy, is everything alright? You seem a bit off this morning. Alexanders tired eyes met hers, gratitude and exhaustion mingling within their depths. finding sce in her presence. I didnt sleep wellst night, he confessed wearily. My mind was restless, burdened with a multitude of thoughts. Amelias heart ached for him as she took a seat opposite him, Im sorry to hear that, she murmured, her voice filled with understanding. Is there something specific thats weighing on your mind? Alexander hesitated, contemting whether to share the weight that bore down upon him. He looked into Amelias caring eyes and he couldnt bring himself to tell her how he felt about her. Its work-rted matters Alexander lied to her and Amelia just hummed at him. Dont worry, you can handle it! Amelia advised to the best of her knowledge. Alexander gazed deeply at her with shes of emotions in his eyes, what could he possibly do to this woman??! Are you sure?? Alexander asked in uncertainty, as the day passed and rolled by, his desire and love for Amelia kept growing and intensifying. the strong emotions were weighing him down that he couldnt even concentrate on anything rted to his office work. Amelia sighed as she looked at him, oblivious to what he was thinking If you want something, you just have to go for it and put in the effort, and trust me, youll be able to pass over this Amelia encouraged him, she didnt know where the urge to console him came from but she just poured out everything she wanted to say to him. She wanted him to feel better. Alexander found a new resolve to chase after Amelia and get her by all means. He just needs to put in more effort to win her heart and as she said he can achieve it if he works more. Amelia wasnt aware of his thoughts and that she was encouraging him to chase after her. She cleared her throat got up from her chair and said to himI just got an email from Mr Sam, your former assistant, concerning your schedule for today, you have nothing much this morning just some signing of paperwork and checking the bnce sheets.Amelia continued telling him what he had to do in the morning. Alexander listened attentively as he started working on that. Excuse me! Amelia saidstly and walked towards the door. Alexander quickly looked in her direction and raised a brow at her back figure Where are you going to?? He asked, since Amelia came to hispany, she barely left the office until it was either during lunch hours or closing hours. If she wanted to use the restroom, she used his Restroom that was in the office. I have something to discuss with George, Ill be back soon.. Amelia said slowly as she held the doorknob. Alexander didnt want to sound as if he was possessive of her or wanting to control her, he was about to say an okay when the door mmed closed. Amelia didnt even wait for him to say that before she left, She wasnt a woman to be controlled by anyone, not even by him. At the thought of George, he had forgotten what he did yesterday, hell visit himter for that.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Meanwhile, Amelia made her way to Georges office and knocked on the door Georges voice came from the other side, with a e in Amelia opened the door and went in. Georges heart skipped a beat as he watched Amelia step into his office. His mind raced with a flurry of thoughts, trying toprehend why she was there. He couldnt shake off the feeling that her unexpected visit might have something to do with his actions from the previous day. Good morning Mr. George Amelia greeted and George just swallowed hard before nodding at her Amelia approached his desk with a calm demeanor, her eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and concern. Georges nerves got the better of him, causing him to fumble with the papers on his desk as he tried topose himself. Can I sit? Amelia asked politely, her voice gentle yetced with a hint of apprehension. Yeah, of course, George stammered, gesturing towards the chair opposite his desk. He couldnt help but notice the nervous twitch in his hands as he adjusted his tie, desperately attempting to maintain a semnce ofposure. As Amelia settled into the chair, Georges mind raced, desperately searching for an exnation for her unexpected presence. He couldnt shake off the feeling that Alexander, their mutual superior, had sent her to deal with him after posting that in the group chat. Well about Wait-wait first George didnt want Amelia to continue her words first so he quickly stopped, Alexander must have sent her to tell him his punishment. But he had to save himself first, so he quickly brought out his phone and started operating it. Amelia raised a brow at him feeling confused as to why he stopped her in mid-air. She just hoped he wasnt backing out on their deal from yesterday, she still havent made her request yet. Was he ying games with her??!! “Remember,it’s a secret” Alexander was in his office when he heard a beep sound and he turned to look at his phone at the table. He took it and frowned when he saw a message from George. (Photos) {Hey brother this ispensation, can I be spared??!! } Alexanders lip hooked up in a cold arc as he tapped on the photo and his eyes widened in surprise but he immediately showed a small smile as he gazed at the picture of when he was kissing Amelia on the lips, during the game of true and dare at the dining table. This was the first time George was doing something reasonable since he knew him. {Shut up} Alexander replied, and his mood lifted as he stared at the photo before using it as his Lock Screen Wallpaper. The back of his head was covering half of Amelias face, he was bending his head and kissing her with one hand on the table and the other on the edge of Amelias chair. It was so Pfft never knew I was this hot.. Alexander said with a small frown before zooming the picture more to look at Amelias widened eyes, obliviously shocked as she stared at his hair. Alexanders lips hooked, he wanted those eyes closed next time. With that, he dropped his phone on the table and continued with the bnce sheet. He had to quickly get this done and over with. Amelia barged the table small to get Georges attention From his phone.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Umm sorry, George said as he wiped his face and stared at the broad {Shut up} From Alexander. Damn this man! Amelia was displeased at George. I came here for our deal.. Amelia said as she gazed at her wristwatch. Oh!!! Georges face reddened in embarrassment as he thought that he had got her wrong. She only came for her request from the game they yed yesterday. Oh okay, Whats your request? George asked, focusing his attention on Amelia, intrigued by her serious demeanor. Amelia adjusted her posture, her expression grave as she emphasized the need for secrecy. This must remain strictly between us. Under no circumstances should you disclose this to anyone else! she cautioned George, who nodded in understanding, matching her seriousness. Go on, George encouraged Amelia, curious to hear what she had to say. Amelia took a deep breath, clearing her throat before sharing her request. I want you to run a test on Ash without her knowledge, okay? she revealed, her voice tinged with a mix of apprehension and determination. Georges brows furrowed in confusion as he tried toprehend Amelias request. His mind raced with questions as he gazed at her, his eyes narrowing slightly in an attempt to decipher her intentions. Amelia noticed Georges puzzled expression and realized she needed to provide more context. Taking a moment to collect her thoughts, she began to exin her motive behind the test. You see, George, Ive noticed some changes in Ashtely, Amelia began, her voice filled with a fake concern. Shes been acting differently, and I cant help but wonder if something is going on with her. However, I dont want to confront her directly and cause any unnecessary tension or difort. Since When did you both be so close?? George wasnt too convinced as he looked more at Amelia. Amelia cleared her throat in embarrassment, couldnt he just shut up already and stop asking her questions?? Not long ago.. forget about that now, this is important, Amelia said nevertheless as she waved her hand to clear her embarrassment. Georges confusion started to fade as he listened intently to Amelias exnation. He realized that she must have had Ashs best interests in mind and was genuinely worried about her well-being. Still, he couldnt help but feel conflicted about conducting a test without Ashs knowledge. Amelia, I understand your concerns, but running a test on someone without their consent is a delicate matter, George responded, his tone reflecting his cautious approach. Amelia almost rolled her eyes Were not killing someone or trying to publish her health statement on the TV, cmon its nothing, and besides we made a bet, you have to fulfill it Amelia wasnt buying all that. As Amelia reiterated the importance of secrecy, George felt a sense of unease. He opened his mouth to speak, but Amelia wasnt paying attention to his attempts to interject. She emphasized once again, Remember, its a secret, as she got up from her seat and made her way toward the door. Watching Amelia walk towards the door, Georges confusion grew. He wasnt sure what had prompted this request or why it needed to be kept under wraps. A million thoughts raced through his mind as he tried to make sense of the situation. Amelia paused at the door, her hand resting on the knob, and turned back to look at George. His face was a canvas of bewilderment, his eyes searching for answers. Sensing his confusion, she felt a pang of guilt for not exining herself more clearly. Do we have a deal, George? Amelia asked, her voice tinged with a mix of urgency and uncertainty. She needed reassurance that he would carry out the task, that he would respect her plea for secrecy. Georges gaze locked with Amelias, and after a brief moment of contemtion, he nodded slowly. Although his confusion lingered, his curiosity piqued by the enigmatic nature of Amelias request, he couldnt ignore that they had made a bet to do whatever she told him, George wanted to help her, even if he didnt fully understand her intentions. Yes, Amelia, George finally replied, his voice steady. I will run the test on Ash as youve asked, and I will honor our agreement to keep it confidential. But I need you to promise me that youll exin everything to me soon. We need to ensure that our actions align with Ashs best interests and respect her rights. Amelia nodded, grateful for Georges willingness to assist her. She understood his need for rification as he was a friend of Ash Moon. Thank you, George, Amelia Melia said sincerely. I promise to exin everything to you as soon as I can. We must prioritize Ashs well-being and handle this situation with care. Amelia lied so smoothly that if she was to say something otherwise, George might refuse to help her since he was friends with Ash Moon. Amelia showed a Sly smirk after turning to face the door to leave the office. Let the Resultse out first! Giving Hubby A Massage Amelia quietly entered the office, her footsteps barely audible as she made her way through the door. Alexander engrossed in his work, looked up with a frown to see who had interrupted his concentration. Upon seeing Amelia, he refrained from speaking and simply returned to his task. Amelia walked past Alexander, acknowledging his silent response with a slight nod, and proceeded to her office. Taking a seat at her desk, she delved into the pile of paperwork that awaited her attention. The stack seemed never-ending, but Amelia was determined to tackle each task with efficiency and precision. As she immersed herself in her work, the phone on her desk began to ring.

She took a moment to tidy her workspace, organizing the papers and jotting down reminders for the following day. With a sense of fulfillment. Amelia couldnt help but notice that Ash hadnt shown up to meet Alexander at the office. It was a surprise, but deep down, she felt relieved. The absence meant that she wouldnt have to witness the awkwardness between the two of them, a situation she had grown tired of. With the closing hours approaching, the office started to wind down. The workload lightened, allowing Amelia to take a breather and reflect on the events of the day. She found sce in the quiet moments, using them to gather her thoughts and recharge. Just as Amelia was engrossed in her musings, Alexander suddenly got up from his chair and made his way toward her office. His unexpected presence startled her, causing her to look up inquisitively. Sir? Amelia questioned, her voice filled with curiosity as Alexander approached her. Without uttering a word, Alexander walked directly towards her and leaned down, his face near hers. He expertly swirled her chair, and suddenly, Amelia found herself facing him, their eyes locked in an intimate gaze. His proximity and the seductive tone of his voice sent a rush of warmth to her cheeks, causing them to flush bright red. Dont call me sir, Alexander whispered, his voiceced with a hint of yfulness. Im taking a break from work, and I suggest you do the same. Amelias heart skipped a beat at his words, her mind temporarily forgetting about the office and their professional roles. At that moment, she was captivated by the maic pull between them. A mixture of excitement and nervousness coursed through Amelias veins as Alexanders words sank in. She had always found him attractive and admired his dedication to his work, but she never expected this level of intimacy to enter their rtionship. It was a thrilling proposition, but she couldnt ignore the boundaries of professionalism that had governed their interactions thus far. Biting her lower lip, Amelias thoughts ran wild. Amelias confusion grew as Alexander unexpectedly took hold of her hand and gently pulled her up from her chair. Startled, she let out a small yelp, unsure of what was happening. She looked up at him, her eyes filled with a mix of surprise and bewilderment. Alexander maintained a yful expression as he held Amelias hand, pulling her closer to him. Their proximity caused her heart to race, the warmth of his touch sending shivers down her spine. With a pout on his face, Alexander spoke in a pitiful tone, Hey. My body aches, and I desperately need a body massage. His words wereced with a hint of yfulness, as if he were teasing her. Amelia raised an eyebrow, her confusion giving way to amusement.

Without warning, Alexander wrapped his arms around Amelias waist, enveloping her in his embrace. Gasping in shock, Amelia found herself captivated by his strong grip and the closeness between them. Her mind raced, trying toprehend the sudden shift in their dynamic. Youre my wife, Alexander whispered, his voice low and hoarse. Whats the harm in giving your hubby a massage? His words were filled with a mixture of longing and vulnerability, tugging at Amelias heartstrings. At that moment, Amelia realized the depth of their connection. Although they were not married in the traditional sense, their bond transcended the confines of a professional rtionship. They had formed a deep understanding and shared moments of intimacy. Amelias initial hesitation began to fade as she looked into Alexanders eyes, seeing the unspoken yearning within them. She could sense his weariness and the weight of his responsibilities. It was a vulnerable side of him that he rarely showed to others. Swallowing nervously, Amelia mustered the courage to respond. Okay, she said softly, her voice filled with tenderness. Ill give you a massage Alexanders eyes lit up with a mixture of gratitude and anticipation. He released Amelia from his embrace and took a step back, giving her space to lead the way. They walked together to a nearby couch, where Amelia gestured for him to sit down. You’re Too Skinny Amelia worked wonders with her hands, skillfully massaging Alexanders tense muscles. With each stroke, she could feel the tension slowly melting away. It was a satisfying feeling to provide him with some much-needed relief. As Alexander rxed under Amelias touch, he couldnt help but feel a pang of hunger. He had been working tirelessly since morning, neglecting his own needs in the process. The thought of food lingered in his mind, and he raised his head to look at Amelia. You know, Alexander began, his voice tinged with a childish tone, youre such a bad wife. Hisment caught Amelia off guard, and she paused her hands, momentarily stunned by his words. Huh?! Amelia eximed, her surprise evident in her voice. She stopped massaging him, her hands hovering in mid-air as she processed his statement. We havent had lunch, Alexander reminded her. Amelias face flushed with a tinge of embarrassment as she realized her oversight. Oh, Im so sorry, Amelia apologized, her voice filled with genuine remorse. Ipletely forgot about lunch because of the workload. What would you like to eat? We still have a few minutes before closing. Alexander observed Amelias panicked movements, and a sense of calm washed over him. He reached out to reassure her, his voice soothing and gentle. You dont need to stress yourself, Alexander said, his toneforting. He understood that Amelia had been caught up in her work and had simply overlooked their lunch. There was no need for her to feel burdened by the mistake. Amelia, however, couldnt shake off her regret. She was determined to make it right. Ipletely forgot about bringing you lunch, Amelia confessed, her voiceced with remorse. Come on, just tell me what you want to eat, and Ill make sure youre taken care of. As Amelia tried to persuade Alexander to choose a meal, her stomach betrayed her, emitting a loud growl. Instantly, her face turned beet red with embarrassment. She wished she could disappear, her cheeks burning with shame. A chuckle escaped Alexanders lips as he watched Amelias mortification. It was endearing to see her vulnerability and genuine concern for his well-being. Looks like we both need a break and some food, Alexander remarked, a yful glint in his eyes. How about we grab a quick bite together? Itll give us a chance to rx and enjoy each otherspany. Amelias embarrassment slowly transformed into Sweetness. Amelia didnt argue with Alexanders suggestion and watched as he got up from his chair, extending his hand towards her. The two of them interlocked their fingers, and together they walked out of the office. Thought you wanted me to order our lunch? Amelia questioned, a hint of skepticism in her voice. Alexander simply chuckled in response, his eyes sparkling with mischief. Lets go have lunch somewhere, Alexander proposed, his tone filled with a sense of adventure. He led the way, with Amelia strolling closely behind him. As they entered the employee cafeteria, a noticeable shift filled the air. The usually bustling space was suddenly quiet and awkward. Whispers and stolen nces circted among the employees, who dared not meet the eyes of the couple seated near the window area. Amelia couldnt help but notice the change in atmosphere. She felt a mix of self-consciousness and curiosity. It seemed that their unexpected lunch outing had captured the attention of their colleagues. Despite the lingering awkwardness, Amelia and Alexander focused on each otherspany. They chose a table near the window, allowing the natural light to filter in and create a warm ambiance. As they settled into their seats, Amelia couldnt help but feel a sense of excitement. This impromptu lunch felt like an escape from their work-filled routine, providing them with a chance to connect on a different level. They perused the menu, discussing their preferences and sharing rmendations. Amelia noticed that the initial awkwardness began to dissipate as their colleagues became engrossed in their conversations. But it was still abnormally quiet as all the employees maintained what they were saying while some who were far from them Began gossiping amongst themselves. Isnt that The CEO and his new Assistant?? What are they doing in the employees cafeteria?? A female employee asked in curiosity. Shes thedy from before that the former receptionist had disrespected and ended up losing her job Another female employee chipped in, making sure to keep her voice down.All content ?

Meanwhile At Alexanders table, As Alexander savored each bite of his meal, he did so with a charismatic finesse. He seemed to be quite particr about his food, taking his time to appreciate the vors and textures. Amelia, on the other hand, dug into her food with enthusiasm, thoroughly enjoying every bite. She quickly finished everything on her te, feeling satisfied and content. However, Alexander had a different n in mind. He yfully took a serving spoon and added more food to Amelias te. She looked at him in disbelief, her eyebrows furrowed in mock annoyance. Do you want me to get fat? Ameliained, her toneced with yful exasperation. She knew that Alexander had a habit of spoiling her, but this was a bit too much. Youre too skinny, Alexander replied with a mischievous grin, his eyes twinkling. Having a little extra skin isnt a sin, you know. He continued to heap food onto her te, seemingly unfazed by her protest. Amelia nced around the cafeteria, aware that some of their colleagues were within earshot. She bit her lower lip, torn between scolding Alexander for his actions and not wanting to spoil his reputation in front of others. Her determination, however, remained unwavering. She made a silent promise to herself that she would get her revenge once they were back home. As Alexander busied himself with his phone, Amelia gazed around the cafeteria, contemting her n. Thoughts of yful pranks and mischievous schemes danced in her mind. She couldnt help but feel a surge of excitement as she thought about the payback that awaited Alexander. Their lunch continued, filled withughter and camaraderie. Despite her silent plotting, Amelia couldnt help but enjoy their time together. The yful banter and gentle teasing only added to their shared connection. Matters Of The Heart Finally, as they finished their meal, Alexander looked up from his phone, a satisfied smile on his face. He nced at Amelia, his eyes brimming with affection and amusement. You have such a mischievous look on your face, Alexander remarked, his tone filled with curiosity. Whats going on in that clever mind of yours? Amelias lips curled into a mischievous smile, her eyes sparkling with yful intent. Oh, youll find out soon enough, she replied, her voice dripping with yful anticipation. Just wait until we get home. The tables will turn, and youll be in for a surprise.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Alexanders eyebrows raised in surprise, and he narrowed his eyes at Amelia. What are you nning this time?? Alexander asked as he gazed at her meaningfully Amelia just showed a smirk at him and he pouted his lips Just tell already Alexander was curious and as well amused at his ever-scheming and sensible wife, she never swallowed losses. Amelia sipped her water nonchntly Nothing to worry about Amelia said and dropped the bottle of water. Alexander raised a brow at Amelia Nothing to worry about? Alexander repeated, his curiosity piqued. He couldnt help but be intrigued by Amelias mischievous demeanor. He knew that when she had that glint in her eye, she had something up her sleeve. Amelia leaned in closer, a yful glimmer in her eyes. Well, lets just say that revenge is best served cold, she teased, her voice filled with a hint of mystery. Alexander pouted his lips in mock disappointment. Come on, dont keep me in suspense. You know I cant resist your clever schemes, he pleaded, a yful smirk tugging at the corners of his lips. Amelia took a sip of her water, seemingly unfazed by his pleas. She ced the bottle back on the table with a nonchnt gesture, her smirk growing wider. Patience, my dear. All will be revealed in due time, she said, her voiceced with a mix of amusement and excitement. Alexander raised an eyebrow, unable to hide his anticipation. He was well aware of Amelias knack for nning borate surprises and pranks. Her yful nature always kept him on his toes, and he couldnt help but admire her creative spirit. As the clock ticked towards closing time, Amelia nced around the cafeteria. True enough, the employees were beginning to leave, their work for the day finallying to an end. The once-bustling space was now sparsely upied, with only a few lingering individuals who had likely worked overtime and forgotten about their lunch. Alexander let out a sigh and turned his gaze towards Amelia. He could sense her anticipation and knew that she had something nned. With a resigned smile, he said, Its about closing time now. Ill have the driver take you home. I have to go somewhere. Amelia looked at Alexander, her eyes filled with intrigue. She had expected him to be the one to initiate their departure, She studied his face for a moment before nodding in understanding. Alright, she replied, her voice calm andposed. With a flicker of mischief in her eyes, she turned and walked away from the cafeteria, leaving Alexander to wonder what awaited him. As Amelia made her way towards the exit, her mind buzzed with excitement. She couldnt help but feel a sense of satisfaction, It was her turn to take the lead and surprise him, and she relished in the anticipation of what was toe. Outside, she found the waiting car and settled into thefortable seats. The driver greeted her with a warm smile and started the engine. As they drove through the familiar streets, Amelias mind raced with ideas and possibilities. She knew that Alexander was curious about her ns. The car pulled up to their home, and Amelia stepped out, a devious smile ying on her lips. She entered the house, the anticipation building with each passing moment. Meanwhile at Li Firm, Aw firm owned by Liam, At the CEOs office. Liam was apprehensive as he stared at the Man sitting opposite him, it was rear to see Alexandere visit him at the office, he must have something important to be there. Well theres this friend of mine from the US who came to me for advice, hes in love with a girl but he cant seem to get the girl to love him back, so he came for me for advice but you know Im not experienced in that area, what do you think?? Its for a friend Alexander asked as his ears perked up Liam raised an eyebrow at Alexanders response, a mischievous glint in his eyes. The familiar banter between them always brought out their yful sides. Ah, the rabbit and its secrets, he chuckled. Well, if youre here seeking advice on matters of the heart, I think youve certainlye to the right person. Leaning back in his chair, Liam took a moment to ponder Alexanders question. It was evident that his friend was seeking guidance, even if he tried to mask it behind the veil of hypothetical scenarios. With a thoughtful expression, Liam began to speak. Love, my dear Alexander, is a tricky game, he began, his voice filled with a mix of wisdom and amusement. But if your friend truly desires this girls heart, he must approach the situation with sincerity and authenticity. Liam didnt forget to stress out that your friend part. Liam paused, allowing his words to sink in before continuing. Firstly, he must take the time to understand her. What are her interests, her dreams, her passions? He should engage in meaningful conversations, showing genuine interest in getting to know her on a deeper level. Alexander nodded attentively, absorbing Liams words. He knew that his friend possessed a unique ability to offer insightful advice, even when disguised within yful exchanges. Secondly, Liam continued, your friend should be patient. Love cannot be forced or rushed. It requires a delicate bnce of timing and genuine connection. Encourage him to create opportunities to spend time together, fostering a bond based on trust and friendship. Alexander agreed with that as he narrowed his eyes with different things running in his Brain. Furthermore, Liam added, his tone bing more serious, your friend should focus on self-improvement. Encourage him to be the best version of himself, to pursue his passions, and embrace personal growth. Alexander swallowed everything in. Neighbor Alexander nodded slowly, his eyes reflecting a newfound understanding. The simplicity and depth of Liams advice resonated with him, reminding him of the importance of self-development and genuine connections. At least it wasnt a bad ideaing to Liam. But above all, Liam emphasized, leaning forward slightly, your friend must be courageous. Love often requires taking risks and stepping outside of onesfort zone. Encourage him to express his feelings honestly and openly. After all, one can never know how the other person truly feels unless they are willing to express it Alexander frowned a bit at that What you mean is I.. I mean C my friend should try as much as possible to be more open with his feelings even without confessing what he feels for her?? Lima nodded That your friend never can tell if she likes him too, women areplicated beings, sometimes their No means Yes, they might say they dont want a guy to do something but they want the guy to do more of it With that possibility said, Alexanders eyes widened before turning gloomy again I dont think so, she often say hurtful words to me, just like yesterday.. Alexander said that in his thoughts, not voicing it out. The thought of how Amelia told him she wasntfortable with him holding her close, made him so depressed and for the first time in his life, he wasnt sure of his charms. It was as if his charms werent effective on Amelia. Liam just shrugged without probing further I wish your friend good luck in his pursuit of the woman he has a crush on, Liam emphasized each word, his tone deliberate and loaded with meaning. It was as if he was subtly implying, I know its you. Alexanders face flushed with a tinge of embarrassment. He stumbled over his words, his voice slightly shaky. Yeah yeah, I wish him luck too, he managed to reply, trying to regain hisposure. A brief moment of silence hung in the air, interrupted only by a cough from Alexander that seemed to break the tension. Liam maintained a knowing look as if concealing a smirk behind his calm facade. His gaze seemed to prate Alexanders thoughts, making him feel ufortably exposed. What? Alexander finally blurted out, unable to bear the weight of Liams unwavering gaze any longer. His voice carried a mix of defensiveness and vulnerability. Liams expression remained serene as he replied, Nothing. His calm demeanor only added to Alexanders growing unease. Feeling increasingly overwhelmed, Alexander abruptly stood up from his seat. Seems Im not weed here. Im off, he dered, his wordsced with a hint of frustration. He swiftly walked out of the room, his long strides betraying his attempt to hide his true emotions.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. As Alexander made his way down the corridor, he couldnt shake off the nagging feeling that Liam had seen right through him. The thought of his secret crush on Amelia being exposed left him feeling exposed and vulnerable. He needed time to gather his thoughts ande to terms with his feelings before facing Liam again. That guy was so evil and Sly. Alexander walked out of the building and entered his car, He sat there for a while before suddenly remembering Amelia who had a cheeky expression earlier, saying she had a punishment for him. He felt amused for some reason, A girl wanted to punish him?? A Ron?? Alexander let out a small chuckle without him even knowing about it. Just then his phone rang and it was Ash calling. Alexander sighed, totally not in the mood to answer her call but he still had to because it might be an emergency since she was sick. As Alexanders phone rang, He wasnt particrly in the mood to talk to her, but he answered the call nheless, his tone cold and distant. Speak, he said curtly, his voicecking any warmth or enthusiasm. Ash was taken aback by the coldness in Alexanders tone, but she tried to maintain herposure. She took a deep breath and mustered a smile as she began to speak. Umm, Alex, I came to your office earlier, but you werent at your desk. I wanted to inform you that I just bought a new house, she said, hoping to share her excitement with him. Alexanders responsecked any genuine interest or enthusiasm. Oh, congrattions then, he replied, his words devoid of emotion. Ash felt a pang of disappointment as she realized that she hadnt received the desired reaction from Alexander. She was aware that he had always been distant and cold towards her, but she had hoped that his response would have been different this time, considering the news she was sharing. Unfazed by theckluster response, Ash continued, determined to share hertest news. And, it so happens that Im now your newest neighbor, she added, hoping that this revtion would spark some interest or reaction from Alexander. As soon as the words left Ashs lips, Alexanders expression turned into a frown. His mind raced with a mix of conflicting emotions. He had desired some peace and distance from Ash since she wasnt cool with Amelia, and her proximity as a neighbor threatened to disrupt that. Trying to regain hisposure, Alexander managed to respond, albeit with a hint of annoyance. Is that so? he replied, his voice tinged with frustration. Ash sensed the tension in Alexanders voice and decided to change the topic, hoping to alleviate the awkwardness. Well, anyway, I just thought Id let you know. We can catch up sometime if youre interested, she offered, trying to maintain a friendly tone despite the underlying tension. Alexander let out a sigh, realizing that the situation was out of his control. He knew that he couldnt avoid Ash forever, especially now that they were neighbors. With a hint of resignation in his voice, he replied, Sure, we can figure something out. As the call ended, Alexanders Eyes flicked, he couldnt remember any house close to his that was vacant and besides his area was so reserved that not just anyone could buy a house there. Mr Moon, Ashs father isnt someone to spendvishly on Ash just to buy a house, she was only transferred to work in Rons headquarters but it wasnt permanent, The Least Mr Moon could do was rent a full apartment for Ash Moon. And if he wanted to at least spoil his daughter a bit, he could also buy her a house but not in the most reserved and Prominent area in Europe. How did Ash Moone about such wealth to buy a house close to his?? Alexander narrowed his eyes a bit Debt As Alexander parked his car and entered thepound, he walked directly to the grand mansion that stood before him. His eyes scanned the spacious living room, but there was no sign of his wife, Amy. Mrs. Gale, the housekeeper, approached Alexander with a warm smile. Alex, youre home, she greeted him. Alexander returned the smile, albeit a small one. Is Amy upstairs? he asked, his voice filled with anticipation. Mrs. Gales expression shifted slightly as she delivered the news. No, she went out with one of the guards to buy some things, she exined. Alexanders face contorted into a frown upon hearing this. He had been looking forward to seeing his wife and teasing her yfully, but it seemed that opportunity would have to wait. He couldnt understand why Amy hadnt asked one of the maids to handle the errand instead. What things? Couldnt the maids have taken care of it? Alexander asked, his displeasure evident in his voice. Mrs. Gale hastened to exin, hoping to shed some light on the situation. No, its not their fault, sir, she rified. Amy insisted on going by herself. She said she wanted to buy some things specific to women, you know. Alexander nodded, understanding Amys desire for independence and privacy. He loosened his tie a bit and made his way upstairs. As he ascended the staircase, his mind wandered, contemting the reasons behind Amys decision. Reaching the top floor, Alexander walked down the hallway, passing by the closed doors of various rooms. He eventually arrived at their bedroom and pushed the door open. The room was quiet and devoid of Amys presence, causing a tinge of disappointment to wash over him. He discarded his jacket and tie on a nearby chair, then flopped down onto the plush bed. He let out a deep sigh, trying to push away the frustration that had been building up within him. As hey there, Alexanders thoughts wandered back to the early days of their marriage. It still feels like yesterday when he stood on the aisle with a stoic and Angry expression on, totally kicking on the idea of getting married, Amelia wasnt exceptional. He had treated her not too well.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. But thinking up to now, things were different, the hate had slowly dissipated after spending lots of time with Her and seeing that she was instead different like how his father had described. Alexander took his phone and dialed Georges number, he was slowly getting impatient In waiting, not that he didnt take Liams advice but One thing about Liams advice was that, it was a bit too slow. He wanted something different and Quick, though he knew The idea could be stupid at times. Georges voice rang through the phone, his tone filled with cheerfulness. Hey! he greeted. Alexanders frown deepened at the sound of Georges overly enthusiastic voice. He knew he shouldnt have called his friend, but he was feeling restless and needed someone to talk to, even if it was George. Trying to maintain hisposure, Alexander responded calmly, How did you manage to get married to your wife? He got straight to the point, hoping to glean some valuable insight. Uh? George seemed taken aback by the question. Could you borate a bit? he asked, seeking rification. Alexander rose from the bed, holding the phone closer to his ear. His voice was filled with a mix of curiosity and desperation as he pressed on, How did you make your wife fall for you? How did you navigate the path from initial attraction to love? It was clear that Alexander was seeking guidance in matters of the heart. A wide smile spread across Georges face as he heard the question. He took a moment to gather his thoughts before responding confidently, Simple. I made her owe me debts. Alexanders eyes widened in disbelief, his hand instinctively moving to his forehead. He couldnt believe the absurdity of Georges response. Was this the advice he was going to get? Feeling increasingly frustrated, Alexander questioned his decision to confide in George. Can you please be serious for once? he asked in frustration, hoping that his friend would offer some genuine guidance. Georges smile slightly faded as he sensed the seriousness in Alexanders tone. He cleared his throat and adopted a more sincere voice. Okay, okay. Ill be serious, he assured. Leaning against the bedroom wall, Alexander listened intently, hopeful that George would finally provide some meaningful advice. When we were still in high school, Gabrie was always the type that was difficult so my quick remedy was to always help her do things so she could feel indebted to me and her heart eventually softened a bit because she felt she owed me too much to hurt my feelings, and from there, I started shooting my shots and boomed.. here we are, George said and Alexander just snarled at that but was absorbing everything he said. Things like what?? Alexander asked again Anything and sometimes, ying the superhero is cool and Heart moving, George said That made a little sense though. Such a stupid idea.. with that said, Alexander ended the call as if he wasnt interested but he met everything George had said to him. He could just apply both advice from Liam and George to make things faster. Alexander gripped his phone as he remembered the words. Being your real self, Be more open and Romantic to her. Making her feel indebted to him. He shouldnt do too much of that so as not to make her think of him as a helper instead of A partner who was worth her love. Meanwhile, on the other side, George snorted as he stared at his phone screen in utter displeasure. Must he have to hang up on me after getting my attention?? Rascal George said and Parked into hispound. At the Shopping mall, Amelia kept strolling from one row of Daily necessities to another. She didnt allow the guard toe walk close to her, she didnt want to drag everyones attention on her by letting her guard follow her around. It was also ufortable being watched 24/7. She went to the female center to get some sanitary pads and panties. She saw different colors and sizes of Bras, her face flushed a bit when she saw a man Taking some of them into his basket. She suddenly thought of the image of Alexandering to buy her Bras in a mall by himself. What a sight that would be! Ameliaughed at that silly thought of hers. Dollar Goods Amelia kept making choices as she roamed around the mall, she had wanted to save up a bit of money but Ah. Money has a very evil spirit with it. The money Alexander paid her for the two consecutive months was Too much so getting a few clothes wasnt a crime to sentence one to prison. Amelia bought all she needed and went to meet the Cashier who immediately started addressing her. Your bill is 500 thousand dors, Miss, The cashier said politely and Amelias eyes began to constrict. How many things did she buy?? Five hundred thousand could buy her a small car that wasnt too shy. Should she drop some things?? Amelia was a bit lost in thoughts and that made the cashier almost impatient. Maam Please be quick aboutThis is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Okay okay, I get, take it Amelia didnt want to look embarrassed so she swallowed the pain and gave the cashier to swipe her card. Five hundred thousand is Gone!! Amelia had a tight lip and a deep frown as she walked out of the mall with just two bags in her hand. She hadnt looked at the price tags before buying and now she had spent money a lot and so foolishly at that. Amelias eyes were almost bleeding with grief as she silently walked out of the Mall. Her evening waspletely ruined especially when she thought of that smile that graced the Cashiers lip when swiping her card to make payments. The cashier said Hope to see you at our mall another day, have a happy evening Theres no another day.. Amelia snorted out so loudly and people turned to look at her in confusion. She didnt bother to look at them as she kept moving to where her car was parked at the side of the road. I guess the price of a toothpaste is worth buying me there! Amelia muttered as she dragged on the bags. She was regretting why she didnt take Alexanders card instead. The driver who drove her was with the car so she had no choice but to drag it herself. Amelia was moving with a frown and a pouted lip when she suddenly ran into someone. Amelia felt like crying at that moment, she had tried so hard to control her tears for the money she had just lost and now somebody bumped into her. Amelias eyes reddened as she gazed at the two bags that fell from her hand, they were on the ground. Amelia gritted her teeth, Five hundred thousand dors is currently on the ground!! The man she bumped into quickly picked them up and handed the bags to her. I m-Im The man paused when he didnt get any reply from the woman. Amelia was standing there facing the ground, She sniffed as she ruffled her hair and looked up at the man Do you know these are about five hundred thousand?? You-you Amelia looked at the ground again, she knew she was being insensitive now but she so wanted to cry for her loss. It was only six sets of Bra of different colors, About ten different colors of panties, and few dresses, and a handbag. It was so costly that she had mentally calcted how much would be remaining in her ount by now. She tried controlling herself but a man just suddenly came out of nowhere to break her strong resolve. The man tapped her shoulder a bit Miss are you okay?? He asked skeptically Amelia looked at him took her bags from him and was about to walk out with a huff but the man held the bag too. Amelia was not in the mood for A random man asking her out, she rolled her eyes at his low-level tactic for trying to court a girl. Holding onto her shopping bag?? Thats too childish and old-fashioned. Amelia sighed and turned to face the man What now?? Wanna take the bag as well?? she asked with impatienceced in her tone. The man was just looking at her, he wasnt a man though. It was a guy on Suit and a ck torso. Seems like you dont remember me! The guy said calmly as he slowly let go of her shopping bag a bit. Amelia looked at him more but couldnt remember if she had Met him before. Excuse me?? Amelia asked as she looked at him with a discerning and calctive eye. The guy suddenly chuckled You dont have to be so on guard! It seems you dont remember.. Amelia was already losing herst bit of patience in her, She was about to say something when the guy leaned a bit towards her. Amelia took two steps back as she silently looked to the side to signal her guard that he should stay where he was for the meantime. Ghost, Amelias bodyguard took a step back as he continued to look at them from the small stall not too far away. He had been lurking around since then. Dont remember. Aye, The guy from the Ball?? Masquerade ball??? Mrs Ron Travis Whackerughed when seeing Amelias reddened face. He leaned back and maintained a straight back with a small smirk on his face. Amelias was so red that she had thought he was a pervert, she couldnt even remember the guy she was talking with from a few days ago!! Uh-i, Heyy I didnt know it was you-hehe Amelia tried to clear the tension in her voice with an awkwardugh and greeted Travis. Its nothing, maybe it was because the hall was a bit dark that evening and you didnt see my handsome face well enough, Travis said calmly. Ameliaughed a little Narcissist Huh?? Travis used his palm to cover his mouth as he let out a small cough and said hoarsely I guess so Right-Right Amelia nodded knowingly as she held onto her bag more. So I guess youre heading home with your five hundred thousand dors goods Travis especially stressed out the five hundred thousand dors in his words. Amelia bit her lower lip a bit, she was a bit immature earlier, what if It wasnt Travis that she had bumped into?? What if it was some Robbers or pocket thieves?? Her five hundred thousand dors goods would have been gone!! So Worked Up It wasnt so though just in a bad mood earlier Amelia tried to clear the air but Travis just raised a brow at her in a disbelieving way. Seeing that expression on Traviss face, Amelia just looked away, not bothering to exin herself. Once she said something to a person and that person disbelieves her, She wouldnt waste her time and effort to try to convince the person. Her slogan was always A person who understands you doesnt need an exnation, a person who doesnt understand you, shouldnt be exined Travis waited for a reasonable reason but seeing she was disinclined to say further, he was a bit confused but impressed. She was such a character. Okay then, how about a cup of coffee?? Travis proposed innocently. Ah thanks for the invitation but Id better head home now, its almost night time, Amelia said calmly as she scanned Travis who was wearing a ck striped trouser and a white sleeve, ck suit on top. He was okay in looks, Handsome, and had a good and nice haircut, his skin was wless and silky and looked milky all the way. His face had fine features but He still paled inparison to Alexander who was a lord of Sinful beauties. Handsome like an immortal and as if free from the worlds dirt and uncleanliness. Like a water god who emerged from his kingdom below. Amelia twitched her nose when she thought of all these, She wasparing Travis with Alexander. I can drive you home if you dont mind Travis replied again as he looked at his watch, it was about 7 pm. Amelia didnt think much of it as she said again Hubby calls As she said that she took a small step. Ohh.. Travis replied with multiple nods, he had totally forgotten even after calling her Mrs Ron, earlier. She was indeed a married woman and to Alexander for that matter. Okay Next time, Travis said and Ameliaughed a bit while nodding. Sure thing, Amelia said and turned to leave. Travis was in deep thought for a while before asking her suddenly How about WeChat?? Travis asked, he respected married women though but making friends with one wasnt a crime. At least they could be friends, Amelia was smart and Seemed educated. He should be on her good side. Amelia nodded a bit scanned his WeChat and messaged him for him to have her contact info too. Okay then, Amelia said and left hurriedly with Travis still looking at his phone. Just when she reached the side of the road to cross the street, a car suddenly parked in front of her. Ghost immediately stood up from his chair put his hand into his trouser pocket and held his gun, alerted. Travis had already walked into the Mall. Amelia rolled her eyes a bit, for many reasons she couldnt be scared of this green-headed Knight. She suddenly started to wonder if she had bad luck today, she kept running into weird faces And doing stupid things. Knight rolled his ss down to look at Amelia who was already standing in a defensive mood. She took two steps backward and made a stoic expression as if scared of nothing. We meet again, I suddenly think we must be fated to keep meeting each other, such a nice evening, Knight said as he ced one hand on his steering wheel and the other at the edge of his seat. Knights eyes roamed around Amelias body and Amelia felt so strange as she kept a frowning face. So unfortunate for me today Amelia gritted those words out as she stared at Knight with no fear. How so?? Knight asked amusingly and Amelia snorted at him so loudly. You are such wasted efforts that I cant seem to stand you every single time, She said and was about to walk out when she heard. It seems youre still with that bastard after what he did to you at the ball!! Knight shook his head at Amelia in pity and reproach. Amelia frowned and walked towards his car a bit and leaned down to see the knights face. And what gave you the right to curse at my husband in front of me?? Amelia didnt know where the strength and boldness came from but she immediately tried to defend Alexander.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Knights eyes shed with unknown expressions Is this what love turns one into?? Amelia wasnt happy about his words as she again The blind one is you, you fail to see whats good for you! Amelia retorted and Knight giggled. I know whats good for me, and thats the very reason I came here today to meet you, arent I sweet?? Knightughed leisurely and Amelia felt disgusted as he continued tough. Youre just a fool Amelia walked to the other side without paying Knight any attention again. Knight didnt bother with her insult as his eyes followed Amelia who was heading to the car opposite his. His eyes turned so cold and bone-chilling as he continued to watch as Amelia made her way to Alexanders car. It was the very car he used that night! Knight held onto the steering wheels so tightly and his veins popped out of his hands. Amelia subconsciously looked back as she felt a shiver run down her spine. Amelia immediately got into the car to leave the vicinity. Ghost made a tight fist as he immediately reported the knights encounter with his madam. After ending the call, he walked into a stall and came out again, this time he was wearing a ck jacket instead of the white shirt he was wearing earlier. Only the Alphas knew What that small-looking and serene Stall truly was. In the day, the stall was bustling with peopleing to buy street foods but at night. It was unsightly. The car slowly parked at the entrance of The mansion and Amelia came down with the driver. Amelia carried her bags and walked in. She was greeted at the door by Alexander. Heyy, Amelia said but Alexander didnt listen to her or respond as he walked towards her and started turning her around to see for anything. He held her small face Are you okay?? Amelia didnt need to ask, her bodyguard must have reported about the knight meeting her to him. Amelia rolled her eyes Whyre you getting so worked up?? Im not a kid whod just stand and let someone bully or hurt me .. and besides, My bodyguard was around the corner With that statement, Alexander immediately used his fingers to flick her on the forehead. Ouch.. Amelia eximed as she held onto her forehead. Stay Over That was uncalled for!! Ameliained as she looked at Alexander with a pained expression. Alexander sighed and rubbed her head and Amelia just stared at him, she could see how distressed he was. Her heart calmed down a bit as she felt something rubble inside her stomach and her belly was filled with butterflies. Was he worried for her?? Amelia cleared her thoughts when Alexander looked at her Ive always told you, Amy, you dont joke around with Knight, hes got horns that can prate a person Amelia swallowed hard at that, Alexander was so serious as he kept on lecturing her about knights. Hes sly and up to no good, you shouldnt be talking to him, and I dont like it whenever you tell Ghost or the others to stay away from you, I want them with you every second and minute whenever you go out, Alexander said as his voice trailed off I dont know what Id do if something was to happen to you Amy His voice was so hoarse as he held onto Amelias shoulder. Amelia signed deeply, trying to swallow and digest his words calmly I like my personal space, having them roam around the corner, lurking around is much better than them staying beside me, it sucks Alexander shook his head in disagreement What if Knight had brought out his gun and pointed it at you at that moment, dont you think it might be toote for them to take action?? Alexander was already frustrated at the girl who was so stubborn. Couldnt she be a little tamed and obedient?? At least being a little bit stupid does not harm, does it?? Amelia still shook her head Dont underestimate your men This isnt a matter of underestimating, were talking about your safety hereAlexander argued, why was Amelia talking as if she knew his men better than him?? Amelia didnt have the strength to argue anymore as she yawned slowly. Seeing that, Alexander made way for her Lets go in first, You must be tired Amelia yawned again while nodding her head Yeah, so tired and famished Then go quickly freshen up and lets have dinner togetherAmelia immediatelyplied as she walked towards the stairs. Alexander called out from the back I guess it was a yes right?? About what?? Amelia shouted back as she ascended the stairs. What we talked about a few seconds ago!! Alexander said as he walked towards the stairs. Nah!! Amelia said again Yes!! I said Its a No!! Amelia shouted back as she walked towards their room. Her figure is out of sight. So Hard!Alexanderined as he went to sit in the dining room. Not too long after, a ding sound came from the door, Mrs. Gale went to open the door and came backter. Alexander looked towards Mrs Gale who was approaching him, he once had a calm face until he saw who was walking behind her. His expression immediately darkened as he looked at Ash Moon with a piercing gaze. Mrs Gale only allowed her in because she was aware that Ash was Alexanders friend but she didnt like this girl. But she nevertheless let her in. Ash Moon was wearing a sad and scared face as she walked towards Alexander who was sitting on the chair. Alex Ash cried out silently with a very aggrieved face as she held onto the cloak around her shoulders. Alexanders face was so unsightly as he gazed down at the girling towards him with a sad face. He didnt like girls being so petty and coquettish. And the fact that Ash came to his house in the night, was already aggravating. What the hell are you doing at my house??!! Alexander forgot to usenguage as he roared at Ash who immediately burst out crying. Alex. Im so scared, I had a terrible nightmare.. Ash sniffed in as she let her tears roll down her eyes. All these years she had been acting tough and headstrong in the presence of Alexander because she knew he loved his girls that way. But since it didnt pay off She may as well use the other way! Alexander suddenly remembered she was his neighbor now, not that he hated her but For some while now, he wanted her so far away from him without any reason. Ash you cant just barged into my house in the night because you had a nightmare, who those that?? This is not America and besides I dont live alone, my wife is here Alexander said but this time around, he lowered his voice a bit as he tried to reason with her. It was a horrible nightmare and it felt so real that I had no choice but to run out of my house, you know Im not used to sleeping alone in a big house, Ive not adapted to the surroundings yet, Ash said pitifully as she advanced further and she was only a few walks from Alexander. So how do Ie in now?? Alexander asked as he folded both hands in his chest. Ash walked towards Alexander in slow steps as she blinked her eyes innocently and tears threatened to pour out Can I sleep over at your house, just for the night?? Alexander was startled as his eyes roamed around Ashs face, just like a switch, His expression became so frightening and Cold. Ash go back home He said that as he tried not to shout at Ash since she was sick, he didnt want her illness to re up. Ash immediately put on a very depressed face as she lowered her head and said with a low-pitched voice, sounding like an abandoned child Alexander you know Ive always considered you as a person I can confide in, Ive got no siblings or anyone to care for me You know how terminally ill I am, you cant possibly abandon me now right?? As thest statement dropped, Ash looked up at Alexander with mist eyes, searching Alexanders eyes. Alexander was immediately caught in a web of confusion, he didnt show it in his face but he was thinking real hard. Please Alex. let me stay over Ash pleaded again as she held onto her cloak. Did you get permission from me first?? Amelias voice came from the stairs and Alexander looked up to see her descending from the stairs.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Ash made a tight fist by her side as she stared at her nemesis In The Slum Amelia came down from the stairs and walked towards Alexander and Ash. She first looked at Alexander with a rather sad and displeased smile before looking at Ash. She immediately wore a very condescending and aggressive Face. Ash looked up at Alexander for help but it seemed as if the guy wasnt even concentrating anymore as his gaze was full of Amelias silhouette. I asked a question! Amelia said calmly as she turned to look at Ash who was only wearing a small chest-revealing satin Gown and fluffy slippers and a small cloak around her shoulders. What does she think she would achieve with these clothes on??!! Ash tried to y the pity card as she said in tears I-I wanted to stay over, please dont throw me out! Saying that was a trap. If Amelia were to say No, she would seem like a big bully and a bad person in front of Alexander. And if she was to say yes, it was as if she gave way to ash and had to abide by her biddings. Amelia was aware of all these as she gritted her teeth in rage, who was Ash to trap her in her own house?? Amelia nevertheless gave her a smile that wasnt reaching her eyes Mrs. Moon I guess you must have been taught by your parents that staying over at a mans house is improper and considered taboo for a well-bred woman from a wealthy family like you, to do and to top it all, A married man! Tsk I guess it will be the talk on everyones lips when this leaks out Amelia was simply trying to tell that she was not well brought up, what a way to tell someone their life history. Ashs face immediately turns grim as she bites her tongue to control her rage. This was an insult she couldnt just swallow, she couldnt ept it but she couldnt be physical with Amelia, since Alexander was still there. Ash sniffed hard Sorry for disturbing you Mrs Ron, its no ones fault If I had been personally trained by my mother, then I could have known all these but unfortunately, I grew up with My dad who always spoils me, may my mothers soul rest in the bosom of God Ash was looking so saddened. Amelia felt the urge tough out and apud her for the talent of ying the pitiful card and trying to act innocent all through. Yeah may her soul rest well but its still wrong to stay in a married mans house! Amelia said leisurely as she held Alexanders wrist and said calmly I and my husband need alone time together, we were about to do some stuff before you suddenly came unannouncedAmelia said again as she looked at Ash in contempt, wondering why she was so obsessed with Alexander. She was beautiful but just wanted to waste her time. Alexander stared at Ash for a while, Ash gave him a pitiful look as she kept sniffing in her snot like a kitten who had suffered some grievances. Alexander looked at Amelia, Amelia looked up at him with raised brows as if saying; whats the matter with that look, do you want her to stay Alexander concealed a smile and turned to look at Ash, he said so calmly: Well, you can stay at my house for the night!As if a bomb suddenly went off in Amelias head. Amelia immediately let off Alexanders hand and directly went to sit on a chair in the dining hall with pouting lips, totally annoyed. Alexander and she had mutual understanding when it came to dealing with people, what was the matter with him now?? Does he like Ash now?? Amelia was sucking as she stared at the two still standing and facing each other. One had a calm face on as if he didnt do anything wrong while the other had a pleased expression and a small smile. Amelia gritted her teeth in annoyance, she didnt know what to do with This annoying man. Alexander didnt look Amelias way cause he was aware she was currently in a terrible mood. Why was she angry anyway?? She shouldnt be jealous or angry at Ash who was just a mere friend to him. Thought he had rified that He had nothing to do with Ash. Nevertheless, Alexander looked at Ash deeply, As I said, you can sleep over, were about to have dinner,e to the dining table for supper Alexander said calmly and walked out. He didnt head to the Dining table to sit as he directly went to the kitchen to tell Mrs Gale that they were three. So she could make food for three of them. Ash made her way to the dining hall and sat down on one of the chairs. Ash sat down triumphantly and Amelia had the urge to puke on her face and reveal her mask. Amelia, on the other hand, didnt show any sign of grievances on her face but rather acted as the woman of the house. Well Mrs. Moon, I hope you enjoy your stay at my house, you know we dont usually take in guests but since you are special, I mean. youre sick, tsk so bad but dont worry-forget Amelia hid her smirk gazed up at Ash and added Youre once again wee to my abode Ashs face was so unsightly as she looked at Amelia Just drop it already Witch, Alexander is not here, trying to act like the queen to spite is of no good use Oh, my bad! But wishing you a warm wee T my home is not a sin, thats what every woman does to their guestAmelia shrugged indifferently. You know you dont belong here, Ash said with hateced in her tone.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Okay?? So where do I belong?? You tell me Amelia asked with raised brows. In the slums, thats where you should be, Ash said with a small smirk. So bad, Im in Alexanders arms which you cant afford to be, I didnt go to any extent or make any effort to be sleeping in his broad arms each night but you went as far as using lots of money to buy a house just to see him open the car door for me every morning, such a pity Tsk tskAmelia licked her lower lips as she stared at Ash. Ashs face was so red and angry. You Look So Cute Amy!!! Ash gritted her teeth in annoyance but Amelia just stared at her with an innocent expression. Just then, Alexander just walked in on them and Ash swallowed her words to her stomach. Alexander sensed the air around the dining table and he knew these women must have confronted each other. They just dont seem to get along with each other.! Okaydies, lets eat Alexander said meaningfully and sat down on a chair close to Amelia. The maids came in to serve them their food separately. Amelia was picking on her food and ate slowly, totally not in the good mood she was when she came in earlier. Alexander had ruined her evening. Ash ate dinner as if she were the owner of the house, totallyfortable and happy. Amelia felt the urge to snort at her, acting so peaceful huh?!! Alexander ate majestically as he looked at Ash from time to time, he didnt even look Amelias way cause he could see from the corners of his eye that Amelia was throwing daggers at him. He suddenly felt intrigued, what if what Liam said was true?? That he never can tell whether Amelia likes him too??!! With that, Alexander took the jar of Juice and poured some juice into Ashs ss. Ash smilingly epted his gestures as she shed him a smile in contentment. Youre too nice Alex, Ash said with a giggle as she tugged the hair that was loose from the rest, at the back of her ear. She looked at Amelia as if saying; Shocked?? Alexander suppressed his smile when he saw Amelias tight grip on her fork. Was she truly in love with him?? Alexander suddenly became in a good mood as he kept eating in contentment. Amelias face reddened when she saw Alexanders happy face, her expression sank when she saw how satisfied he was after serving Ash a ss of Juice. He was in love with Ash then! Amelia dropped her fork and sat there with a solemn expression, she had lost her appetite to eat. Alexander stared at her for a while and asked Does the food not reach to your satisfaction?? Amelia gave him a tight re and said with gritted teeth It does!! Alexander swallowed hard when he saw that look, was he going too far with this?? He looked at Ash again who was enjoying her meal. his lips turn to a thin line. Amelia just looked away and was about to get up when Alexander suddenly held her wrist. Amelia was so angry that she tried to shake off his hands from her wrist quickly so that Ash wouldnt see this scene, he put her in a bad mood and now he wanted her to stay and let her see his lovey-dovey with Ash. This man was too much. Amelia looked at him with a re, she wanted to silently leave without Ash knowing. Alexander gave her a small look as if saying; You dont trust me?? Amelia just snorted at him with hatred, she wasnt going to buy any of his nonsense this time around. Amelia struggled to get his hand off her wrist but he held her tighter. Alexander pitched her wrist with his other free hand and used his eyes to signal her to sit down but Amelia was not listening as she used her other free hand to pry open his fingers around her small and slim wrist. Alexander just sighed and watched her get up from her seat. Just as Amelia got up and took just two steps when she heard a thud sound and she subconsciously looked back to see Ashs head on the table. She had hit her head on the table and seemed as if she had passed out. Amelia looked at Alexander in confusion. What-what was that?? Is she dead??! Amelia looked at Alexander who was sipping from his wine in a leisurely manner. Amelia suddenly narrowed her eyes at him. You-you Amelia stammered, she could have known better, Alexander was always full of evil and had something up his sleeves. What did you give to her and when did you do it?? Amelia asked again but Alexander didnt respond and made her fix the puzzle herself. Amelia sat on the chair again and began to think, just then she hit her forehead You are such a man, You nned all these before agreeing to her, when you went to the kitchen earlier, this was what you asked the maids to do and you kept giving her more food so she could quickly pass out, you put drug in her meal Alexander gave Amelia a thumbs up I tried right?? Im learning from you Amelia snorted and asked, What was the essence of you giving her juice then?? Alexander swallowed a lump in his throat as he couldnt exin and tell her that he had wanted to check if she would be jealous. That would be shooting his foot. He coughed slightly as he took out his phone and dialed a series of numbers before cing the phone in his ear Come in With that, he ended the call. He didnt notice Amelias gaze which was so distant as she waspletely lost in her thoughts. Just then, Resolver came in and bowed respectfully at Alexander and Amelia. Take her to go sleep Alexander instructed Resolver and he immediatelyplied. Amelias brows wrinkled when she heard that statement, but before she couldin, Resolver had already carried Ash and walked out of the dining room and left through the living room door. What Alexander meant was to take her back home. So Ash wouldnt be sleeping over?? Amelia licked her lips small and bowed her head, she was a dummy for not trusting Alexander earlier. He wasnt a fool. Alexander smiled when seeing her embarrassed expression, he smirked as he got up and walked towards her.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Hey! Alexander called out very hoarsely as his voice was thick full of muscrity and his throat bopped up and down. He was so refined as he brought his face close to Amelia to seize her up. Amelia looked up at him and said a small Sorry.. Alexander let out a small chuckle and ruffled her small head and Amelia grumbled Stop doing that! I cant cause you look so cute! Alexander said with a wide smile, he just couldnt let go of his small cute, and as well fierce wife. Amelia just pouted her lips in annoyance but within her, her stomach was filled with Butterflies that couldnt stay still. She was satisfied. Sleeping Pills Excuse me Excuse me, Alexander and Amelia said simultaneously and they gazed at each other for a while before nodding at each other. Amelia got up and walked towards the stairs while Alexander had a confused look on as he headed towards the kitchen. Meanwhile, in the bedroom shared by Alexander and Amelia, Amelia locked the door quickly and opened the window as she looked outside with the aid of the streetlights that were on. Their window just happened to be opposite Ashs new house.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. She watched as Resolver carried Ash in and kicked her door open. After a while, he came out after dropping Ash inside the house. Amelias eyes followed Resolvers body as he left thepound and walked towards theirs. As fast as lightning, Amelia brought out her phone as she scrolled through her contacts on WeChat. It was almost 10 pm already as she hurriedly started to type a message to George. {Your opportunity is here, go to Ashs house this minute, shes currently unconscious}Amelia immediately sent the message. She paced around the room for a reply but it was as if every second that passed seemed to be years. This damn George is always so unreliable. Amelia was about to walk out when her phone dinged. She quickly checked it out and saw that it was a message from Travis, she rolled her eyes as she tapped into the message and saw that he was active. {Hello There}That was the message from Travis. Amelia quickly sent him a message back {Hello to you too, sorry but kinda busy now} She wasnt in for a conversation now, she wanted that dummy to text her back and not him. Just then, George replied to her {What?? Unconscious?? How??!!} Amelia immediately felt her forehead as she almost cried, did he even see the rest of the message?? Why couldnt he change for a while, even if its for a second!!!! {Did you just pick some parts of the message to read??!!} Amelia was so angry that she texted back in fury. {uh??} That came the dumb reply and Amelia suddenly regretted having a deal with him. It was a no-other-choice decision. Amelia quickly texted back in anxiety, she didnt know how potent the medicine was so she didnt know how long Ash could remain asleep!! {Just go to Ashs house and take what you need to run the test we made a bet on} George immediately replied {oh that On my way} Amelia let out a sigh of relief that he was finallyplying. But the. Again,{but whys she unconscious??} Georges message came in after a while. {sleeping pills} With that reply, Amelia dropped her phone on the bed. Alexanders scheme helped her this time, Her n could have been so impossible. George at the other end, Gazed at the Text message and sighed again. He felt Amelia was too scheming. He nevertheless, started the car and zoomed off, fortunately for him, he was on his way to his home when Amelia had texted him about thetest developments. So he just made a U-turn at where it was safe to and headed towards Easternnd. They both made a bet, so he had to fulfill it. At the kitchen, Alexander slowly walked in on the maids who were chatting with Mrs Gale, who was sitting on a stool, monitoring their work. Mrs Gale smiled when she saw Alexander walk in, She had that motherly love glinting within her eyes. She had watched Alexander grow so she had always considered him as the child she couldnt give birth to. After losing her husband who was once the Gardener at the Rons Mansion, She became so immersed in her work when the Rons Couples asked her if she would want a leave from work. She immediately declined, as taking care of Alexander and Maverick and as well the junior maids, brought her great joy and fulfillment. The work made her so preupied to grieve about her loss. Ah, Alexander what are you doing here?? Lets go out, the air around here is so stuffy Mrs Gale immediately persuaded Alexander out of the kitchen and he just hummed and walked out with her. What do you want child?? Mrs Gale said as she put on an elderly womans look, eyes filled with great wisdom. I wanted to talk to you about something! Alexander said calmly as they both stood close to the dining table area. Mrs Gale nodded at him to talk and he cleared his throat before saying: Umm-about earlier when I told you to umm-Put zolpidem in Ashs Meal so she could fall asleep.. Alexander started as he said calmly. Mrs. Gale suddenly said, Umm, I couldnt inform you earlier since you were with Madam and Mrs Moon.. Alexander wrinkled his brows About what?? You had instructed I use zolpidem which we usually add to the panther dogs meal so he can fall asleep easily but at thest moment after you left, We found out that zolpidem is no longer avable as it has been used up, Mrs Gale said and Alexander was suddenly confused. If they didnt use zolpidem, which Sleeping pill did they use that made Ash fall asleep?? Seeing his puzzled face, Mrs Gale cleared her throat and replied again So we add benzodiazepines instead which the guards usually use! Alexanders eyes immediately shrieked You used benzodiazepines?? Mrs. Gale was a bit startled by his expression, there was nothing wrong with the drug, it wasnt a poison. It was just that, benzodiazepines were more potent than Zolpidem. Alexander was lost in his thoughts but he nevertheless asked Mrs Gale to return to her duty post. Alexander dragged a chair from the Dining and sat. No wonder Ash fell unconscious too soon. He knew that Sleeping pills increase the risk of cardiovascr events in heart failure patients by 8-fold. So he had told Mrs Gale to use zolpidem which showed a decreased risk (29%) of developing or dying from heart disease, but she just happened to use benzodiazepines that were rted to an increased risk (80%) of mortality from heart disease. Ash said she was suffering from terminal heart disease, and she had consumed Benzodiazepines which could make her illness re up but it didnt, instead, it made her sleep just like it should normally do. Which only means one thing.. Lengthy Talks George quickly parked in front of Ashs new house, he could have lost his way if Ash hadnt bragged about her new house to him, and made him have a cup of coffee at her house. He gazed up at the small house from his car, he just shook his head. He wouldnt interfere but he knew within him that Ash was just fooling around, she wouldnt be able to gain Alexanders love with the way she was going. This was an obsession and not love. George came down from his car quickly and went to the house opposite him, it had no gate but just a well-trimmed grass and a footpath. He made his way to the door and it was only jammed and not locked from the inside. He took out his phone turned on the torch in his phone and pointed it at the doorknob to observe it before turning the doorknob and pushing it open. George frowned as he entered the house and was met with a smallfy living room, he didnt have the time to appreciate the interiors as He turned on the lights and off his phone torch. His eyes scanned the living room as he vigntly walked into the rooms to check which Ash was staying. He finally reached a door and slowly pushed it open and saw Ash sleeping on the bed. Her face was flush and her hair was scattered all over the bed, she was covered in a duvet. George didnt waste time as he wanted to get this done and over with so he could go home early to meet his little vicious wife. He made his way to her bed and quickly took out a small container box and ced it on the small table close by. He reached for the pocket of his trousers and dragged something out. He gazed at the nail cutter in his hands and gazed at Ash. Im sorry He was a man who didnt go back on his words. He quickly sat close to Ash and looked at her messy expression, he began to contemte whether to do it or not. She was his friend no matter what. George began to think for a while as he finally made up his mind and took her wrist. He was about to use the nail cutter to cut her finger when he stopped in midair.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. He dropped the nail cutter and her wrist. He took out the cotton bud in his pocket and slowly brought it close to her mouth. He used his fingers to pry open her small mouth pushed the cotton bud into her mouth wiped a little quantity of her saliva and kept it in his box. And took the nail cutter again and did the deed brought out another box and let the blood slowly drip from her nails into the box. After getting a little quantity that was enough, he helped patched the small wound after cleaning it up. With both boxes in hand, he walked out of the room, with his back to thedy who was still unconscious. Forgive me, Ash Meanwhile, Amelia breathed a deep sigh when George texted her that he had obtained the samples. Amelia narrowed her eyes slightly, the friend she made back in the military camp had suffered from Heart disease until she finally passed away after some months. Some of the symptoms her friend had experienced were Chest pain. Shortness of breath. Swelling in the legs. Fatigue. Dizziness, fainting unexpectedly, Nausea, and some others. She waster told by their superiors that she should evacuate the camp to go seek medical care which they helped her pay the bills. Even after all the medication, she died two days before her nned wedding with Alexander. Due to their grieve, she started going to bars to get wasted, it was when she wasing out of a bar, some thugs wanted to take advantage of her, and after sessfully suppressing them, she went home to be told that the following day was her wedding with a business tycoon, Alexander Ron. Amelia scoffed when she thought of all these. The few times she had met Ash, Ash didnt show any signs of Weakness, and the day Ash and George came to their house to y a game, She even drank a whole bottle of Vodka. That was what raised her suspicions the more. It seems she was using her illness to get to Alexanders soft side, which Amelia vowed to close. She should be the only one, she wasnt gonna share her husband with Ash Moon. Even if she doesnt know how Alexander feels for her, she is not concerned about that as, for the moment, all that matters is that she loves him and would do anything for him. The clicking sound from the door broke her line of thoughts. Amelia looked at the door and saw That Alexander hade in, She gazed at him deeply. The Alex she knew wouldnt be stupid enough to be unaware of The fact that Ash was lying to him. Then what was his n?? Why was he still silent about it?? All these questions filled in Amelias head as she watched hime closer to her. Alexander raised a brow at Amelia when seeing her absentminded expression. She looked so serious. What are you up to now huh?? Thinking of something Mischievous again?? Alexander strode to the other side. Amelia immediately frowned as she walked towards their bed You think so bad of me now Alexander chuckled Im not thinking bad of you, its just that Ive finally realized how scheming you can be Amelia gave Alexander a displeased look How am I scheming?? She snorted at Alexander through her nose You dont know anything Alexander walked to the other side of the bed with a yful expression on his face If youre not scheming you would have already done what you have in mind, dont keep me in suspense or are you waiting for when I fall asleep before you execute your ns?? Lengthy talk. are you now scared of me?? Amelia asked amusingly as she propped her elbow on the bed and ced her small face on her palm. Alexanderughed out a bit as he brought his face so close to her and Amelia was so lost in his face as her eyes trailed down to his lips. A soft chuckle echoed in the room and Amelias face turned pink as she pushed Alexander away from her. Cant believe you have naughty thoughts about me, well not bad Ill tell you something Alexander immediately grabbed Amelias waist and she yelped in shock. Alexander pressed her down on the bed and came over to her as he was on top of her and Amelia was just under him. Amelias face reddened in surprise at their proximity. Alexander slowly leaned close to her ears and whispered, hoarsely and seductively . A/N Arghhhh??? Forgot my lines!!! No Objection Arghhhhhhh Damn you, bitch!!! An agonizing and sharp cry came out from a room, The birds around the window immediately flew away. It was still early in the morning when that ear-piercing cry rang out from the house not too far away from Alexanders mansion. Ash was enraged and looked like an insane woman whose hair was so messy and ruffled on the bed. She was sitting on the bed with tears stained all over her face. When she woke up this morning, she was so confused about how she was in her room. She remembered that she was in Alexanders house and they were having dinner and then. She couldnt remember what happened next and now, she suddenly woke up in her room. At her new house!! Ash grabbed her already messy hair as she began to look around like a mentally insane woman. She spotted the small injury on her finger and she was so confused This wasnt Amelias doing, it was Alexanders. Only he can agree to that but it must be Amelia who had egged him to do so. Its high time. Its time to remove Amelia from the picturepletely. Ash slowly narrowed her eyes across the room in contemtion. She quickly got up from her bed and hurried to the bathroom to take a shower and get ready for work, but what she wanted to do was within her. Amelia quickly got into the car and Alexander went to the other side with a yful smile on his face. Amelia wrinkled her brows at him when she saw hime directly to the Drivers seat. What about the driver?? Amelia was puzzled as she watched Alexander enter the car and ignited the car. Alexander turned to face the young woman staring at him, Amelia quickly averted her gaze as she flushed red. Yesterday was too embarrassing for her. When Alexander hadid on top of her the previous night, she was so soft like a jellyfish under his hot gaze. Her heart had started to palpitate as Alexander brought his face close to her ear. She had thought a lot of things, like him kissing her or whispering sweet nothings into her ears but he just chuckled and turned off themp on the table, close to her. After turning it off, he leaned back on the bed and immediately slept off without looking at her again. Amelia remained in that position for a while, and slowly her ear began to redden as her cheek turned reddish in embarrassment. Her thoughts were too perverted and she had been overthinking things. He only wanted to turn off themp, surely he woulde to her side to do so since themp was near her. But why she suddenly felt hot was aplete embarrassment for her. This Man was so full of Himself,.!! She couldnt sleep properly till it was already close to dawn. And when they saw each other this morning, Alexander seemed to be holding back hisughter and she suddenly remembered what happened the night before and quickly scurried away like a rabbit, totally embarrassed by what she didst night. When she got to the bathroom, she almost screamed her lungs out when she saw her face.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. She had dark circles around her eyes she looked like a maniac And an outed witch. No wonder that Alexander of a guy wasughing at her. After bathing, she spent extra time doing her makeup and used a foundation to blend the dark circles so they wouldnt be too visible so as not to scare the employees at the office. Alexander watched the little kitten staring outside the window. he smiled a bit as He slowly drove out of thepound, He focused on driving but still gave Amelia some side nces. When heading to the office, they had to pass by Ashs house as that was the direction to the Headquarters. Alexanders keen eyes immediately sighted Ash locking her door in a hurry and he immediately knew what she was up to. Before he could tell Amelia to look his way and not to face Ashs direction, she had already faced him. Amelia had also spotted the girl from the window and frowned when she saw how Hurried Ash was toe to meet them. She wanted them to give her a lift. Alexander was a bit impressed at how sharp and quick-witted his wife was. Alexander used one hand to hold the steering wheel and used the other to snake his hand on Amelias hand. Amelia looked at their intertwined hands before looking at Alexander with misty eyes. He was at it again, making her go soft and weak. Making her lose her self-control with his sweet gestures that made her heart so flustered and grew red roses. Ash quickly ran To meet up with Alexanders car, she was determined to make him ride her to the office that day. In the car, Alexander raised their intertwined hands and ced his lips on the back of Amelias hand for a kiss, just in time for Ash to get near their car. Ash saw that Amelia didnt force Alexander, it was his idea to kiss her. Ash slowed down in her pace as she watched the car zoom off. Ash gripped her bag so tightly as she made up her mind and hardened it to go on with her initial n. Meanwhile, Amelia looked up at Alexander with no words to say, should she be happy?? Or sad?? She wasnt happy, even if he had kissed her, she felt like he was using her to push away ady and he wasnt truly into her. Amelia felt hurt but didnt say a word. Alexander looked at Amelia who had her head down, he raised her chin and stared at her face. Amelia averted her gaze and couldnt look him in the eyes. Cmon Wifey, look at me, Alexander said softly as he held Amelias chin and Amelia slowly looked at him. Tell me, why are you sad?? Alexander asked and Amelia gained a little bit of herself as she pitched his finger that was used to hold her chin but Alexander didnt let go. You thought I was gonna forget?? Dream on you owe me one but Ive decided not to punish you so. heres what were gonna doAmelia averted the topic Alexander suddenly remembered her n to get back at him. He cleared his throat and focused on driving but was still paying Attention to Her Okay?? Amelia smiled a bit For 48 hours youre gonna say a YES to everything I demand, no objections!! Alexander immediately joined his eyebrows together. Alex- Alexander felt that this girls request was too deep, she was so sly and had something up her sleeve but what he was sure of and could brag about was the fact that she knew what she was doing and wasnt going to get into trouble. So he said Okay then, your wish is mymand Amelia immediately felt satisfied as she sat on the chair with a much calmer Face, her mind racing. She had to wait for The test result but before then, she had to mentally prepare herself. You know Ash isnt gonna let you go this time around! Alexander suddenly said which Caught Amelia off guard. Does he know?? Amelia gave Alexander a confused look and Alexander kept looking straight ahead Dont give me that look, you and I know that you have a n against Ash Amelia bit her lower lip, so he was even aware. Wondering how I got to find out?? Hehe, you know I see all things, its just that I choose to ignore them cause I consider them the least of my problems right now Alexander nodded a bit as he kept speeding along the highway toward the office. Amelias eyes dimmed as she scrutinized Alexander for a whileAnd youre also aware of Ash.?? You mean her supposedly love for me?? Alexander scoffed as he continued Nonsense Amelia was about to smile so widely but then she dropped it back, she didnt want to seem like a witch who was happy about others failures. But within her, it was a Good Result. Ash isnt as simple as she seems, so beware of her keep your distance, and be at alert at all times, Alexander said with foresight as if he could calcte everyones next move. But you still keep her by your side at the office! I know what Im doing.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Amelia scoffed, so he knew all these but he was acting as if he was blind to them and didnt know about Ashs true nature. She should be the one to be wary of me!! Amelia said with a huff and Alexander smiled a bit. Thats my girl, But Im not praising you so you can be foolish, be carefulAlexander praised and as well reminded Amelia of the most important thing. Alexander looked at Amelia and his voice turned low and hoarse, so soft and small like a melody And Always remember this Whenever youre in distress, Ive got you covered, whenever you are in pain Ill be your medicine and whenever you need me, Im right beside you.. Thum Thum Amelia could hear her heartbeat as they thud as if they were about to fall out and they were fighting in between her ribcages. Alexanders eyes carried a lot of emotions and same as his heavy words. Was that a vow?? A promise she could rely on?? Amelia slowly nodded her head at him And Alexander reached out to her head and helped tug the loose strands behind her ear. You look beautiful today.. Alexander appraised And Amelia smiled a bit, suddenly confused why he was so sweet today. I always look beautiful, Amelia said nevertheless but what she earned was a snort. Yeah I believe you, thats why you look like An outcast with dark circles this morning, too ugly Tsk tsk Hey, that wasnt me!!! Amelia immediately hit Alexanders arm and he burst outughing. So it was Me then?? A broad smile remained on Alexanders face as he drove towards the streets where his headquarters was located. Amelia had a pouting lip and Alexander turned to face her and used his fingers to straighten the lines between her brows as she was frowning. Dont frown you dont look good that way! Get lost!! Amelia snorted at him and he justughed a bit and Directly drove to his garage and parked the car. Amelia opened the door before he could help her with the door, just as she stepped out, she made a sound as she yelped in pain. Alexander quickly went to her side to see the situation. Amelia said back in the car again as she tried to look at her leg. Let me, Alexander said and crouched down close to her and Saw that her heels had broken. He frowned as he saw that, he quickly inspected her leg and saw a red mark on her foot, she had sustained an injury there. Im sorry Alexander let out as he slowly massaged her toes. Why are you sorry?? You arent the heelsAmelia said. Forget about it, lets get this treated so it wont get infectedAlexander quickly instructed Amelia to stay still as he went to grab the First Aid box at the back seat. He quickly disinfected her injury and ced a small gauze around it so dirt wouldnt enter. Amelia almost cried when she thought of how she was gonna enter the office with one leg in a shoe and the other, Barefoot. Alexander immediately knew her thoughts and he took his phone and made some arrangements, after getting a reply, he dropped his phone in his pocket Returned the aid box, and walked towards thedy. Lets go in, Alexander said and Amelia pouted her lips and said Go in first, Ill catch upter She wasnt going in like this, she could just buy a shoe online and have them deliver it to her in the garage. Alexander smirked and immediately walked towards her and held her, his hand on her back and the other under her gown. He shoved her into his arms and carried her out of the car. Drop me now!! Amelia was so embarrassed when he suddenly carried her, this was much more embarrassing than going in with one shoe. Alexander didnt listen to her as he used his leg to kick the door and it locked, he held the strugglingdy closer and more tightly. Listen to me and drop me down already, I cant go in like this Amelia felt the urge to cry but he wasnt listening, she tried to shake him off and jump down but she was pinned to himself so tight. Her strength paled inparison to his. Like that, Alexander carried Amelia into the Elevator and dropped her down. Amelia was so red and fuming. Dont touch me againAmelia fumed at him and he turned to look at her. And now I wanna touch you Uh?? Amelia was so speechless at this man who was acting all shameless. Alexander immediately pushed her not too harshly and she had her back on the wall in the elevator. Wha-what-what are you doing?? Amelia asked bewildered as she watched him press her to the wall. Alexander gripped her waist and sucked in a deep breath and rested his face on her nape Amelia stiffened and her voice came out inaudibly. Alex were at the office..! GP Heels Alexander chuckled beside her ear and wrapped her waist and Amelia was so stiff. Thinking when they had suddenly be this close! Amelias breath hitched as she used her hand to support herself so as not to copse, she ced the hand on Alexanders chest when her legs were threatening to give up. She had be so weak in the knees. Alexander slowly whispered, Why are you so stiff Amy?? Amelia couldnt utter a word as she wrapped her arms around his arm and used the other to press on his chest. Her back against the wall and Him pressed against her. Amy.. His voice was so hoarse and cool and Amelia felt he was teasing her again but she just couldnt help it. She loved to get teased by him. Alex thats enough already..Though Amelia said that, she wanted more. Then again, she realized that the elevator would be reaching the office floor soon. Alexander smirked and let go of her and stood straight and immediately put on a cold face as if he didnt do anything earlier. Just then, the elevator made a ding sound and the doors opened and Alexander resumed his duty as he carried the stupefied Amelia again and directly walked to their office. What if someone meets us like this?? Quickly put me down Amelia said as her eyes continued searching around as Alexander walked towards their office. No one will, Alexander said coolly as he continued walking in long strides. And how are you so sure about that??Amelia wrinkled her brows at him and he just adjusted her in his arm. You are so light, though youre a glutton, you still are so bony Alexanderined and that got Amelia so vexed. She directly pitched his ear and it turned pink Dont call me bony, its not my fault that Im so skinny Just as her words fell, a sound echoed in the hallway. Amelia turned to see where the noise came from and she immediately flushed red. A director who hade out of his office for something, saw their CEO carrying ady, due to the shock and disbelief, his notepad fell from his hand.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. He remains there with a nd expression on. Amelia immediately hid her head in Alexanders chest to cover her chest. She had not wanted this to link out in the office. Alexander saw her reaction and a part of him was not happy with her reaction. Was she not proud of being with him?? Alexander turned to the Director and shot him a very cold and life-piercing gaze that made the director immediatelye back to his senses. He shivered like a duck with no feathers who had been kept in the cold for a thousand years without a nket. Get lost!! Alexander said calmly but his words contained all manner of threats and killing intent. The director immediately scurried away with his head bowed down. Alexander was so angry, he was having a wonderful time with his wife and someone just came out of nowhere to disrupt their moment together. Amelia immediately jumped down from his arms as they got to the office. Alexander had a sucking expression on and Amelia sighed as she stood close to the door. Alexander Walked to his chair and sat with that same expression. Amelia noticed his expression and was confused at his abrupt change of expression. Umm about-Amelia cleared her throat and continued about my.. Dont worry, Ill have my men buy you a new set Alexander said calmly as he took out his phone to make arrangements. Amelia nodded a bit and sluggishly walked to her seat to start her work, She first made a cup of Cappino for Alexander who muttered a thank you to her and she hummed and returned to her seat. She started working but she couldnt help but let her eyes drift to Alexanders silhouette, he was using his pen to draft something on a book. She tried to stretch her neck to look but she couldnt see anything. Alexander was busy scribbling nonsense in his book, he couldnt concentrate on anything, he was so self-depressed. He looked towards Amelias direction and saw that she was working. He quickly looked under his drawer and saw a small mirror that His brother, Maverick had dropped in his office thest time he came. He sneaked a look at Amelia and when he confirmed that she wasnt looking in his direction, he quickly looked in the mirror and after a while, he dropped it back on the drawer and began to contemte. He was handsome as far as he knew, so why was Amelia still not head over heels for him?? A lot of women beg for his attention even if its just for a few seconds but Amelia who had gotten his whole attention wasnt budging. This was simply unbelievable!! Just then the door opened and a man came to deliver a pair of shoes to Amelia. Alexander watched Amelias happy expression when he saw her open the lid of the boxes. Amelia was so happy when she saw that Alexander had bought her about four heels with different colors and designs. They were all fancy and each pair werent less than two hundred thousand dors. Because it had a famous brand logo on, GP was a very famous designpany, they only produced thetest and off-market goods. The red heels among the shoes that Alexander bought for her was from GP and it has only two pieces. One piece was sold in an auction house and bought by the First Lady of Singapore. And the second piece just happened to be right in her hands!!! Amelia forgot everything she was doing, she forgot about some self-restraint as she immediately ran to meet Alexander who was resting his weight on his table. With folded arms, looking at her. Alexander was surprised as Amelia ran towards him barefooted as if they were in their home. Amelia immediately dived Alexander wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed him into a hug. Alexander was a bit startled as he looked down at the small girl wrapping her arms around his neck. A smile crept up to his face as he slowly wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed her more into his broad chest. At least the decision to buy her four heels was a good idea and the troubles he went through to get her GP heels were worth it. With that thought, Alexander hugged Amelias small body even more. Black Sheep Let me in!! My sister is in there, just call her out alreadyJolie barked at the security men at the front gate of Rons Headquarters. She had tried calling Amelia but to no avail. They were in huge debt, Their father borrowed money from loan sharks to buy some materials for the new construction work for a client who had offered a good and reasonable price. In the middle of the arrangements for the Construction of a major road, after borrowing money for a start-off, the Client suddenly was dered bankrupt due to evidence of his illegal extortion of public funds as he was a Chairman in Politics.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Mr Luke Robertson almost copsed when he read the news headline about the Chairman who had hired him to construct a road. Hispany has already been in a stage of liquidation and this suddenly happens to him. The fact that the client has been dered bankrupt didnt affect him but the fact that the construction work wont be taking ce and he had already borrowed money from a loan shark, was enough to make him lose his sanity. The loan shark was not to be toyed with as he was a deadly man and a man of the night. Robertson had sought help from his colleagues and through his small connections to gather some money to pay back but to no avail. He had no choice but to allow his daughter to find a way out ande beg Amelia for some cash since she was married to a rich man. Jolie had reached the gate but was stopped by the security men. This is the official building of the Rons and you cant just bargain in here as you like, leave already before we manhandle you, A man said, he was so burly and fierce looking. Jolie grabbed her hair as she looked up at the building, if only her stupid old man hadnt sold Amelia to Alexander, she would have been the one in that building now, she wouldnt have been the one begging at the gate now. Such humiliation should only be swallowed by that daughter of a sucker. Jolie cursed as she took her phone and called Marion Hello Mom, it didnt go as well as nned, the security wouldnt allow me in Marion felt like fainting from the other side, the loan sharks hade to the house that morning and demanded their money and threatened that if they failed to pay back their money by the end of today, theirnguage would be wiped out. The thought of dying already gave Marion a panic attack You have to find a way, Jolie, you must get to your sister! Jolie was so angry as she gritted her teeth Cant we just run away and leave that old man behind, he brought this upon himself so let him chest the headache alone, why are we getting dragged into all this mess?? Marion said with a reprimanded tone You cant say that Jolie, if we are to leave your father to die, what will his family say? If we do so, how about his properties?? His family wont let us smell even a centThat was the most important thing so Marion didnt fail to remind her daughter. What if we dont even survive to see that day?? Jolie snorted at the idea. Thats why you have to make it work, you do your thingMarion immediately ended the call and began to pace around the room. Jolie was so vexed as she kept looking up at the building. That slut!!! I said let me in before I create a scene here, hey you better let me in now!! Jolie immediately rampaged and the officers immediately swung into action as they held her arms she began to struggle with them and just then a voice called out from the side. Let her be!! A girls voice emerged from the side as she gracefully walked in. Jolie looked at her and frowned so deeply. Why did she save her from the security men?? The security men immediately bowed at her, they knew her as a top employee in the building and rumor has it that she was the bosss friend from America. Ash slowly walked towards them and scanned Jolie from head to toe. She was in a bad mood earlier when Alexander showed his disy of love for Amelia and her whole ride to the office was so gloomy. And now she happened to stumble on a big fish. You all can leave now, shes with me, Ash said and the security men looked at Jolie for a while before leaving. Jolie red at all of them with hatred, watch me, when I be the wife of Alexander, Ill make sure to fire them!! Jolie thought before her mind drifted off to thedy who juste in. Jolie right?? Ash started as she gestured to Jolie to follow her in. Jolie was so surprised how she knew her name for she didnt recall any meeting with this intruder. And how did youe to know my name?? Jolie asked and Ash just chuckled. I know you, I was voting for you to be the top socialite for this year but it was unfortunate that you were evicted before the finals, Ash said so calmly as they both walked to the employees garage and Stopped by a pir and Jolie looked at her with adoration. So you were my fan?? Jolie was so happy to have met a fan today, Of course Ash tried to sound happy but she was having a hard time concealing her disgust for Jolie. Well I can see you came to look for Your sister, I guess the one who was birthed by your fathers first wife and the ck sheep in your family Ash said to see Jolies reaction and she got what she wanted when she saw Jolies angry face. That bitch is so full of herselfJolie didnt bother to hide anything as she began to swear at Amelia. Ash looked at Jolie with utter disgust and satisfaction. She had found her new tool. I know you like Alexander so I can help you get him because hes my childhood friend Ash offered and Jolies eyes immediately brightened. You will do that??!! Ash hummed as she started at Jolie. Never will she let her man into another womans hand!!! Square Silencer Okay, what do you want in return, you just want to get something back! Jolie couldnt wait to be the next Mrs Ron. All her problems would be automatically solved and no more hassles or stress. And getting married to a rich, handsome, and Powerful man like Alexander was like a dreame true for Jolie. But if she knew that Her stepsister, Amelia was not giving in to The same Alexander, Jolie would probably hit Amelia on the head to see what was inside. Ash hummed as she narrowed her eyes at Jolie I can give you a lot of money, your choice I just need you to help me do something At the mention of money, Jolie was immediately intrigued, she could use it to parol with her friends and go for some shopping spree. Tell me what you need from me Im totally in!! Ash smiled as her eyes were fixated on Jolies face. Jolie wanted her to start talking, she was hellbent on doing anything. Meanwhile, the Robertson mansion.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Marion kept pacing around the room and Luke just happened to walk in at that moment. Any news from Jolie?? Luke asked with expectations as his eyes gazed at Marion as if wishing and waiting for good news. Marion felt the urge to spit on Lukes face, which man was so stupid to sign a contract with someone without investigating them first?? Well, it was only a desperate and greedy man like Luke Robertson. Jolie wasnt allowed to enter the building talk more of getting a chance to talk with Amelia Marion was so angry at the fact that they had reached a point where they had to go meet with Amelia for help. Luke grabbed his hair in frustration, he was getting too old to handle this type of disappointment. The loan sharks would being this evening and we have nowhere to run to!! Luke sat on the couch in contemtion. What about your business associates?? Didnt they offer anything?? We have to do something, Luke I cant die with youMarion trailed off as she sighed. Luke couldnt refute her words, he was the one who had made the mistake and he was the one who put them all into this mess. Im sorry MarionLukes voice was so hoarse as he apologized in regression. Marion had a small snarl on her face as she looked at her stupid husband in contempt Sorry cant fix anything, we just have to wait for Jolie toe back first and well know what to do from there Marion wasnt into anything, she doesnt have a business or position in society so she couldnt help at the moment, in terms of finance. She was just a mistress of the house, spending Hubbys money and going shopping, spa, and styling. That was her work!! Well no need to wait, Im home already, Jolie said as she made her way in. When she had talked with thedy called ash earlier, she had promised her a lot of things including funds and she had also said that If she had a problem, she could run to her for help. Marion immediately rushed towards her daughter and took her to a seat to rest You have a happy expression on your face, did something happen?? Did you get to speak with Amelia?? Nah I dont think anything good cane out of Amelia. tell me, did you meet Alexander?? Marion began to probe further as she looked at the Smiling Jolie. Let her have a breather Marion, which do you want her to answer first?? Dear. just tell us how it all wentLuke asked as he was already feeling giddy about it, seeing that cheeky smile on Jolies face, he already had hopes and knew that all was well. Jolie looked at her mother before looking at her father I met someone willing to help us in our situation! Marion frowned as she was a bit confused A man who takes a fancy to you?? Is he as rich as Alexander?? Jolie Rolled her eyes as she held her forehead Not that, its ady Tell us about her and how shes willing to help us pay back the loan sharks Luke inquired as he sat down On The chair with the twodies. Family of Three. Jolie told Her parents all that happened and how she meant Ash, and ash willingness to help them in return for a Favour that Ash would request in the evening time that day. She wants a Favour from us?? What can we possibly give?? And she said she would ask the request this evening. Are you sure shes legit??Luke asked in concern, he didnt want to fall into a deeper mess than he was already. Theres nothing legit in this world, Luke, all that matters is that the pain is settled and we can deal with whates next Marion immediately encouraged them to agree with Ash. She didnt want to be aughing stock amongst her fellow women who used to be at her beck and call. She wanted to hold her head up high in public. Luke nodded a bit after thinking from Marions perspective Okay, call her then Jolie immediately took out her phone and dialed the new number that Ash had given to her. After the call went through, Ashs voice came from the other side. She was in her office, signing some papers and stuff, she had expected Jolie to give her a call very soon because she was well aware of their condition. Tsk tsk tsk Jolie you finally called Jolie turned the speaker to loud as she held it close to her mouth. Yes, Ive thought about it, we do need your help, We just hope you can help us. Its no problem, Jolie, I like your type of girl, youre strong and so willful Ash appraised as she clicked her tongue slyly, what he told her was true after all. Well you see, we have some crises here, this evening some loan sharks my dad borrowed money from, would being to the house this evening for their money but we dont have anything to give them so can- You dont have to say anything, Ive got this covered, Ill help you pay the funds, Ash said as a matter of fact, anything to make them happy. Whats the name of the loan sharks?? Ash asked again. Jolie looked at her dad meaningfully who whispered the name to her ear, Jolie understood and said to Ash Rounder and Footpad and they are from an infamous ck market, Square Silencer Ash hummed at that, who doesnt know about Square Silencer!! So what do-do you want in return?? Jolie asked the most important question and Luke and Marion were immediately focused. Simple.. Amelia!! Don’t Shed Tears Luke and Marion exchanged confused nces as they looked at the phone screen. Amelia?? my sister?? Jolie was shocked and proud at most, Seems Amelia had offended the wrong people and now they were after her. Yes Amelia, I know you dont like your sister so just leave it, its a simple task, you dont have to kill her. just lure her to me and Ill take over from there, Ash said as she swirled her chair and looked outside the window with narrowed eyes, eyes filled with venom. She was willing to go to any length to Remove Amelia from the picture even if it meant selling her soul to the devil. Marion nodded at Luke who was still contemting that, Ash didnt mention doing anything to Amelia so it wasnt that bad!! That was Lukes thought as he sighed and also nodded. We agree, just tell us when and where!Jolie said as she hardened her heart, finally, it was happening without her even wasting any effort. She wasnt going to do anything much, just luring a fool to Ash wasnt a problem. It was easy and as if she was killing two birds with a stone. She would be able to pay up her familys debt and also eliminate the thorn in her flesh. Goodbye, Amelia!! Jolie smiled triumphantly. You dont have to be so anxious, Its soonAsh began to chuckle so cold. She wasnt like the calm and innocent Ash she always portrayed to Alexander, she was in her true form now. Vile. Soon, it was evening and the Ron couple had returned home from the office. It has been a stressful day so far and Amelia was satisfied for the past days and that day, Ash didnte to pester them like always. Such a leech Amelia muttered as she thought of Ash being suddenly calm. At least it was a good thing, she could experience some peaceful time and regain some sanity. Alexander opened the door for Amelia and Amelia got down from the car. Alexander held her hand and Amelia didnt object to that, she was already used to His ways and him being somewhat touchy with her. Alexander held Amelia as they walked towards the front door and they made their way to the living room. Mrs Gale immediately walked towards them, took Alexanders bag and Smiled at Amelia. Good evening Mrs Gale Amelia showed a wide smile at Mrs Gale, she was like a mother she couldnt have, Mrs Gale was always so attentive to them and treated Her and Alexander with care. She was a good woman. Good child, dinner is served, you both quickly freshen up and have your meal, Mrs Gale said and the both of them nodded and walked in. Alexander opened the door to their room and led Amelia in, They both shared a walk-in closet like Modern couples. Alexander had one side and Amelia had the other. Amelia waited for Alexander to go bath first as she went to pull off her shoes, her earrings and bands. After taking a shower, Alexander went to the walk-in closet to get dressed. Amelia also went to the bathroom to bath and came out after a while with a towel over her. She wrapped it around her, and her long and slender legs came into view, her skin was pearly white and translucent, and the water droplets made it so dazzling and beautiful. She wrapped her wet hair in a small towel. Alexander was already fully dressed and he was sitting on the bed, waiting for Amelia. Im already famished, please be fast about it Alexanderined and Amelia raised a brow at him. The way Alexander looks and carries himself makes one think he doesnt eat or sleep. He looked like an immortal as he was filled with Charisma. Alexander seldom eats and when he does, it is only little as if he is trying to maintain his weight like a model who must have a nice figure. Alexander smirked as Amelia stared at him, lost in thoughts. She seems to be spacing out each time she faces him, was she always fantasizing about him??!! Alexander wasnt too hungry, he just wanted to act coquettish and let her take care of him. Acting like a child once in a while wasnt a bad idea. Amelia didnt say anything and just nodded at him and immediately went to the closet to get dressed what she saw left her dumbfounded and so shocked. Amelia came out from the walk-in closet sneaked her head out of the door and saw Alexander still sitting on the bed. Alexander was sitting in a leisurely manner with both hands on the bed but was at the back to support him, his upper body leaning to the back a bit. Amelia looked at Alexander with raised brows, she gazed into her closet again and looked at their bedroom. Im in the right room!!Amelia muttered as she closed the door and rented the walk-in closet. Alexander almostughed at her reaction, it was so funny and cute.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Soon, a scream came out from The walk-in closet and Alexander suppressed hisughter and entered the walk-in closet and happened to see Amelia using both hands to cover her mouth as she stood still, facing her wardrobe. Whats the problem, Amy?? Alexander asked as he walked towards her and Amelia turned towards him and Looked at her with tears brimming in her eyes. Heyy dont shed tears, Alexander said and held Amelias face and Amelia kept sniffing. Why was she so emotional these days?? Alexander was moving her! Alex-you shouldnt be doing this, I dont want to rely on you, I dont want to be so used to all these that when we arent together any Shuu that wont happen!! You deserve it Alexander said as he didnt want Amelia toplete her statement, he didnt want to hear about that contract ever again. Amelia looked at her closet again and she was so emotional and speechless, Her old clothes were nowhere to be found. Alexander changed her wardrobe, The clothes were all fancy clothes and beautiful, each dress, everything and the lower part of the wardrobe.. Was Filled with a sort of shoes, Snickers, heels, slippers and t wears, Boots etc. She felt so spoiled and pampered, she didnt know what she did to deserve all this. There wasnt a girl who didnt like Material things, it just to have some limits. Amelia was so happy that she immediately wrapped her arms around Alexander and hugged him more tightly with her breast pressing hard on Alexanders chest. And the Man immediately stiffened all over as he felt the soft cherries on his chest. Was this woman wanting to kill him?? Black Market Amelia hugged Alexander so tightly thanks Alexander, I love themShe was grateful. Alexander hugged her back when he saw her heels break earlier and she got injured, he wasnt feeling settled with that. A wife of Alexander Ron should be the envy of all the women. She was the wife of a Don and so needed to have everything. Thats one of the things you get for being my wife! Alexander said sweetly as he inhaled her hair and the sweet fragrance from her hair shampoo was so refreshing and smelled of Cherry that was blooming in autumn. Ameliaughed a bit and she pulled away from him and just then. Her Towel around her pulled and she couldnt register it and wasnt quick cause she wasnt expecting it. Amelias face turned beet red as her towel slipped from her grasp, tumbling to the ground. The room felt suddenly cold and the air heavy with embarrassment as she stood naked before her husband, Alexander. Her heart raced, and she scrambled to retrieve the towel to cover herself, desperately trying to regain some semnce of modesty. Arghhh! Amelia eximed, her voice a mixture of shock, embarrassment, and frustration. Alexander, caught off guard by the situation, couldnt help but burst intoughter. His amusement only added to Amelias humiliation, and she felt a surge of anger rise within her. Get out!!! she shouted at Alexander, her voice trembling with a mix of embarrassment and indignation. The room fell into an awkward silence as Alexander realized the gravity of the situation. Hisughter subsided. Amelias cheeks were still flushed as she red at Alexander. Tears threatened to spill from her eyes, and she struggled to find words to express the depth of her embarrassment and vulnerability. She wrapped the towel tightly around herself, trying to shield her exposed body from both Alexanders gaze and the overwhelming emotions that washed over her. Alexandersughter transformed into a genuine expression of remorse. He took a step closer to Amelia, his eyes filled with empathy. Amelia, I am so sorry. I didnt mean tough. It was thoughtless of me, he said softly, his voiceced with sincerity. Amelias anger began to subside as she witnessed the genuine remorse in Alexanders eyes. She realized that he hadnt meant to humiliate her; it had simply been an automatic response. She took a deep breath, her voice quivering slightly. Its just its so embarrassing. I never wanted you to see me like that, she admitted, her voice tinged with vulnerability. Alexander shook his head a bit, to be frank, he couldnt shake off those images of her nakedness in front of him earlier. She had very smooth and nice skin and he was a bit guilty of trying to remember everything part of her body.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Those peaches at the front. Youre beautiful Amelia Alexander said sincerely but that only provoked Amelia. That means you saw me!! Amelia was already fuming in annoyance, annoyed at herself. Alexander was puzzled I wasnt looking though but Im not blind Amelia groaned and quickly shoved Alexander out of the walk-in closet Its okay, its okay now, you can leave already youAmelia pushed Alexanders shoulder and made him leave the room. Cmondy its not a sin !Alex said with full righteousness as he kept moving in slow stride. Amelia was even more embarrassed at that, the fact that She was naked in front of Alexander earlier was enough to give her a heart attack. Alexander finally left the room and Amelia walked towards the walk-in closet and saw the clothes. A sweet smile immediately spread on her lips as she felt happy, she began to hum a song as she searched through for what to wear. After Ash left the building, she directly hailed a taxi that stopped in front of Rons headquarters. Where to maam?? The driver asked as he ignited the car. SS.. Ash said calmly as she gazed at the night, it was exactly 7:40 pm. A few minutes more. She had done her research about SS, also known as Square Silencer, its original business starts at 8 pm on the dot. After a while, the car stopped in front of a mall and Ash paid and came down from the taxi. The mall was facing a small store, and on the top of the store was broadly written S. S In the daytime, Lots of Customerse to eat as it is like a small or mini restaurant, the store has been there for years and nobody knew the owner, the owner of the store didnt renovate the store and just kept it simple. Though they makerge sales, the owner didnt refurnish or renovate the store. But at night, exactly 8 pm, It was a night dealing spot. This was the exact Store people came in and out of and was visited by Ghost (Amelias bodyguard) when Travis and Knight met with Her. Ash scanned the store that was dimmed and looked at her watch and just then it was already 8 pm. Ash crossed the road dipped her hand into her bag brought out a mask and wore it on her face, she entered the store and was allowed in. The front door of the store was closed and the dark curtains were drawn, The secret passageway was opened. The secret passageway was in an abandoned Store close to SS. the store was abandoned but yet it wasnt. That was the real n, The abandoned store was exactly close to SS and was built together but no one upied the first store, only the second store was upied (SS). If the First store was locked properly, a door was connecting to SS, which was the passageway. When other people who wanted to do ck stuff came to SS, they first moved to the abandoned Store and entered through the back door before passing through the passageway into SS. Ash was lucky that she came faster so she didnt need to pass through that passageway. After entering the Store, people began toe in little by little. Wealthy men were also wearing masks on, that was the rule there so that every Customers identity wouldnt be exposed since SS was a ck market. After seeing that people were beginning toe already, a guy in a suit and ck mask walked towards a huge shelve at the side of the wall, flower vases were hung on the shelve. Ash thought they were gonna do things at the main restaurant but she was rendered speechless when the guy shifted the shelve and a wall was all they could see. Ash frowned as she looked more and saw the creaks at the edges of the wall like a door form. Sure enough, it was only a wooden wall so the guy used his palm to push the wall and it creaked open for the customers to enter. Ash was so impressed. What a nice hideout!!! The owner must be so smart! This Desperate Ash went in along with other people on masks, both male and female. Behind the wall was a very wide hall that was dimmed with blue and red lighting, There were other people there. Ash walked towards the Small bar first and sat down, observing everywhere. Soon the ce became full and lots of people were talking, some were in the gambling section. Ash took out her phone and logged into the app, called Square App. This app was only known by a few, and how she got to know about this app was also a mystery. She went to the Mission Center and asked to hire some assassins. All the assassins were on disy for her to choose from, their faces were covered in masks and they were all wearing ck and were disyed by ranks. Some had a Blue badge on, they were all neers with low rank, and their strengths were limited. Green was a mid-level assassin badge and Red was the high-ss level assassins badge. Some had a Big A symbol on their badges, it was a silver color badge with A imprinted on it. They were the supreme Assassins, the very top and hard toe by and their price were pocket cutting. Only Top people can afford their services. Ash went for the Red badges and employed Six of them, and each costly 500 thousand dors each and they were six of them making it three million. She could spend more than that to get rid of Amelia. They asked for her to pay the bill and she immediately sent them the money then they asked for the information of the person they were after and Ash just directly told them, she was at the ck market already so they told her toe to the Red room behind the stairs. Stairs?? This was just a store, hows there a stair?? Ash looked around, in the restaurant of SS, the guy on ck had opened a shelve and they entered behind the wall it was like a mini hall, and now they asked her toe to the room behind the stairs, Ash looked more and finally discovered that the stairs might probably be underground, The stairs was under. Ash walked towards the stairs on the ground and it seemed to be dark in there. Other people were busy with their things and Ash was just looking down the stairs others past her and walked in as they descended the stairs and a door was opened for them and they walked in. Ash slowly climbed down the stairs and the door also opened for her and she entered. It was as if she entered a whole new world, this ce was dimmed and it felt like the real ck market vibe. It was filled with men and some women who were also there, all wearing masks. Ash didnt waste time as her eyes roamed around the room that was very vast, too wide and upied by people of all caliber. Ash was still standing behind the door and her eyes went to the door behind the main door she was standing close to. This must be the room, she slowly approached the door but her hand was held by someone. Ash looked at the person and she was so displeased. Maam can we see your pass?? The bouncer asked his voice husky as he let go of Ashs hand. Ash was a bit confused about the pass thing he was asking, what pass?? She didnt even know what a pass was here?? See I just paid for some services and they asked me toe over here, I can show you proof, Ash said and immediately brought out her phone and showed him when she had signed a service of six red badge assassins. The guy widened his eyes behind the mask as he scrutinized the girl before him, she was small but had been so exposed to such things and even paid the services of red assassins. Well, it seems youre new here, if youe here frequently, youll be honored with a pass card by the owner of the ck marketThe bouncer nevertheless let her in. Ash swallowed hard and entered the room and was greeted by the faces of six stoic people. Out of the men, two were small looking while four were big and burly with fierce looks that can make one pee on the pants. Ash cleared her throat Okay lets get down to business Ash walked in and said, You guys must be the Red teams! The one who seemed like the leader nodded as his eyes looked at Ash, she was too little for such a thing. But then again, a small smirk showed on his face as he led the others to have their seats on the conchs and Ash also sat as the room was a bit too overly dimmed. This was the room the Red Assassins talk with their clients and it was always dark to avoid disclosing either of their identities. The leader could only identify that Ash was a small girl by her silhouette which was like a frame in the dark. After giving Amelias information and telling them when to attack her, Ash left the room and entered the room she was in before. Ashs eyes roamed around the ce behind her mask. For some reason, she felt somebodys gaze on her since she came in and she couldnt shake off that feeling of premonition she was feeling. Just as she wanted to exit the ce by climbing the stairs. A hand grabbed her again and she felt like exploding as she angrily turned backward to see who grabbed her. Whats your- The guy holding her arms smirked behind his mask as he scanned Ash from up and down. Mrs Moon, we see here! Never knew you were this desperateKnight Cyrus said slowly and Ash just rolled her eyes I cant possibly wait for your slow ns, I have to figure things out my way! Ash snarled and shook off Knights grip on her.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Youre just wasting money here, the assassins wont be enough to bring Amelia down, wanna know why?? Knight said with an amusing smile on. Why??- Ash asked nevertheless, Amelia wasnt immortal for her to have thousands of lives and not die. Because Shes different.. Slutty Girl Dont tell me that!Ash snorted, she had expected anything and not what Knight said, that was bullshit!! Different huh?? Thats too silly. Lets just stick to the original n Ash Knight said seriously, he looked around for a while grabbed Ashs hand, and walked towards a private room. Where are you taking me to?? Hiring some assassins here isnt my main n, I have my trump cardAsh said as she let Knight pull her along they reached a door and Knight brought out a small ck card with an SS symbol on and they allowed them in. Ash looked at The card the knight was holding and only removed her gaze as the card was dipped into his pocket. She had thought it was just a room but never knew it was just a small passage, Knight let go of Ashs arm and Ash looked around. Im not going to do anything to you, At least this is the only safe ce to talk about such things in this ck market Knight exined and Ash nodded a bit, she had observed that it was too crowded in there. That was the pass card right?? Yup, Knight immediately replied as he leaned on the wall. I wonder who the mysterious owner of this ck market is, I must say he is smart, This is actually an underground and the top was just a normal small restaurant and people wont even suspect something like this was going on underAsh was marveled. Ive also thought of that and did my investigations but cant find anything, The owner had sent the pass card to me and I was surprised, well its no big deal since we dont reveal our identities and Im a regr here Youre a mafia and dont need the aid of Assassins to eliminate anyone, so what are you doing hereAsh asked in curiosity. None of your business, lets get down to what we came here for, Have you talked with the girl?? the knight asked leisurely Yes, that family sucks, They immediately agreed when I told them Ill help them pay back the loan sharks, Ash said as she shook her head for Amelia who was so unfortunate to have such a family. Knight nodded in understanding Theyre a bunch of wasteKnight narrowed his eyes slightly. Didnt believe the n worked, I mean. who would have thought that Mr luke would borrow the money we sent upThis is property ? N?velDrama.Org. I knew because when the Chairman had signed a contract for hispany to construct a road for him, Luke was so happy and because hispany was about to copse and he thought this deal could at least help him up a bit, he had to go borrow money, so bad for him, the loan sharks were all hired by me from this ck market and they loaned him the money I gave them to loan him Ash listened with interest So the loan sharks arent a loan shark?? I mean, Rounder and footpad?? Knight chuckled so loud What do you take me for?? Rounder and Footpad are green-level assassins that were hired by me to act as loan sharks and they were also instructed by me to go after The Robertson family so they would be so desperate to look for help Ash frowned a bit But why did the deal suddenly go down the drain?? You also nned it?? Nah I didnt n for anything, I just help the public see the chairmans dirtyundries Knight answered self righteously. Ash immediately put the puzzles together, no wonder, when she was fuming earlier when she saw the scene of Alexander kissing Amelia, she got a call from Knight to head to the office a bitter. When she arrived, she saw a girl at the gate causing amotion, Knight had texted her as if he was nearby and was seeing everything, He gave her the information about Jolie and what to do. Now that they are willing to lure Amelia out. this is where my work starts, youve done a great job this time, leave the rest to me, Knight said with a cold smile. He wanted to see How red Alexanders face could be when he got to hold his lover in his arms, who would be bleeding. Nah That wasnt right When she would have probably been dead with no remains. Knight showed a shallow smile of apprehension and Ash immediately frowned deeply at that. The deal is to kill Amelia, dont you dare have funny ideas and Touch my man, dont even think of that!! Ash immediately warned, that she so loved Alexander that she started working for Knight the day They did a game of truth and dare at Alexanders house. The image of Alexander kissing Amelia that day was so tormenting to her that she began to have nightmares about Alexander being intimate with Amelia. So she had to kill Amelia before such things happened. I wont do that, I just want to see Alexander shaken, you cant deny the fact that you know Alexander loves Amelia, and if she were to die, he would be like a walking dead, and by that time, you cane in and help him heal, to recover and then he might begin to see you from a different light knight smirked as he gazed deeply at Ash who was having a hard time concealing her smile. That was right, She could help Alexander at that time and be by his side, she would have an excuse of staying close to him. It doesnt matterAsh tried not to sound happy as she just shrugged the matter away. And you know Im not just helping you for free, Knight said small as he came towards Ash. Cut that Knight, we agreed to do that once and then its over, Ash said But we also agreed that when I help you, you give me your body, whyre you so reluctant now?? Didnt you enjoyst time?? Ashs breath hitched as the knight roamed his hands on her chest area and pressed on her small round breast. Knight-knight we shouldnt be doing this here, you know I love Alexander and want to keep myself for him Shuu Alexander wont know we both did it, which girl of your age is still a virgin these days, its normal you would have some past so theres no problemKnight said and lifted her skirt and let his hand trail around her undies and Ash was so hot now. Cy-Cyrus.Ash let out his name and Knight smiled So unfortunate for you Alexander, a slutty girl is obsessed with you!! Alpha’s Four Enemies Amelia was having dinner with Alexander but she wasnt in a pleasant mood.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Alexander noticed that but didnt ask, it seemed she was still ashamed of what happened earlier. Amelia didnt look at Alexander as she buried her head in her meal, whenever she looked at Alexander, it constantly reminded her of what transpired earlier. Eat some veggies, it helps to improve your skin tone, youve stressed yourself too much these days, replenish your health, Alexander said and put more vegetables on her te. Thank you, Amelia said small but she didnt touch the food and this got Alexander so worried that he dropped his cutleries and turned towards her. Whats bothering you, Amelia?? Is it .. No Amelia answered calmly and Alexander immediately believed her, what he was thinking wasnt the case. If it was, she would have shouted a NO and he would know that she was probably lying. Then what is the matter that you cant talk about?? Alexander asked again Not that I cant talk about it, its just that you didnt ask until now! Amelia snorted at Alexander And you still im to be mr Perfect! Alexander raised a brow at Her Arent I a good husband to you huh?? Amelia stuck out her tongue as her mood was a bit uplifted, thanks to Alexander. I didnt say that, you are not just attentive to my emotions these days! Ameliained and Alexander was amused. Was she asking for his attention now? Alexander was happy, At least there were some improvements now, unlike before when Amelia always told him to get out of her sight. Im deeply sorry if I may have neglected you these days, just tell me what you want and Im gonna do just that, Our deal of me saying yes to everything you ask for hasnt started yet, or has it??Alex remembered that and Amelia smiled a bit, he remembered that but the way he said it, made him seem as if he was looking forward to it. It hasnt officially started yet and now it will !!Amelia said calmly as she repositioned herself. Alexander rubbed his two hands together under the table, he was anticipating what she was going to say. Ummm About Ash. Amelia started and that immediately changed Alexanders mood. What was with Ash Moon this time around, he didnt want to hear about it. He just wanted a fun time with Amelia and left the other irrelevant things. Alexander looked at Amelia for a while but she had a calm face without a single ripple. Okay, what about her?? Alexander asked as he wanted to listen to what she was going to say next. You said she once worked with you!Amelia recounted when Alexander had told her that and Alexander nodded. Back when I was still in the USAlexander replied, confused at where the topic was heading to and why she was suddenly asking him all this. Okay.. Can you tell me all about your teenage or youthful years, I mean Your past and allAmelia said as her eyes glittered, If it was before, she dared not ask as it was stated in the contract not to get too close to him or cross her boundaries. And asking about his life was also a sin and now she just wanted to try Alexander swallowed hard as he began to think why she was so interested in that all of a sudden Well if you must know, Ive got a boring life. That was until I met you. Alexander thought that but didnt say it out loud. Just say Amelia urged as she leaned on the table after adjusting the food away from her front. Eat first! Alexander suddenly remembered the food I dont want you getting sick or have ulcers Nah, well talk about food after youre done talking now say it already Well it was normal, As the eldest son of my family, I had to be different from the rest kids, I had to attend aristocratic school and be well trained and mannered. unlike somebody I know who is so carefree Alexanderughed a bit and Amelia re at him. That was my life dude I didnt ask you toe from a boring but wealthy family Amelia mocked Alexander whoughed at that. Yeah, thats true.. George and Liam were my friends from childhood and when we were in high school, IAlexander cleared his throat before continuing I had like a girl who was in my ss, stupid . Through Hry, I got to be friends with Ash Moon, since she was my then girlfriends bestieAlexander looked at Amelia who was pouting, heughed a bit and rified. Well, I have nothing to do with Hry anymore so theres only you, Alexander said and Amelia immediately blushed Im not jealous so theres no need to say that! Amelia shouted a bit and that was enough for Alexander to not believe what she said. I didnt get the chance to confess my feelings to Hry as she did that instead, yeah she told me what she felt about me and I also felt the same way at that time, and we started dating Wow, I like how bold she is to profess her feelings, I dont see myself doing that, Amelia said as she nodded with a yful smile on. Alexander snorted at Amelia It doesnt matter, you dont need to do it, I willAlexander said thest line in a low tone and Amelia looked at him, she thought she had heard wrong so she asked: You said something just now??Amelia asked but Alexander just shook his head. Nothing! Alexander denied it and continued nevertheless Ash Moon became close to us and we were all friends, went to gatherings together but I was always absent because of my tight schedules, at the age of twenty. I became the leader of Alpha, a gang created by my grandfather we are the leading gang after Mr. Whackers gang, Liam and George became a member too since their fathers were also part of The Alphas before dropping Alexander said again as he began to share some experiences and fun time he had and Amelia began to digest everything one at a time. Not so boring! Amelia said after Alexander told her his life experiences how he broke up with Hry, and some fights between gangs. And Ill tell you this, Ive never said these things to anyone before, Alexander said calmly Including Ash?? Amelia only wanted to confirm and soothe her jealousy. I wasnt that close with Ash, she was just a normal friend and a secretary to me.. Okay..Amelia believed Alexander this time around and watched him rest his back on the chair with narrowed eyes Alpha has about Four enemies, The red Kings, Venom, Hitmen, and Cobras Feeling Inferior To identify the Red Kings, their way of attacking is using snipers, they dont confront, they make use of snipers They always have a red band on their arms and Theres a Crown Tattoo on the back of their necks Alexander began to analyze They are the gang led by Knight Cyrus.. Amelia said and Alexander nodded. When they capture their prey, their way of killing is by removing their fingers and cutting off the ears of the prey Amelia nodded without creeping out, Alexander was impressed at her strong self. The venoms.. ahh, I will advise you not to let your guards down because theyve been quiet for a while after knowing I killed their Boss, Lorenzo Go, a few months ago Alexander said and cleared his throat The day you came to pick me up at the bar, when I was dead drunk! Amelia remembered that day and made an O mouth as she nodded in understanding. They always wear masks and are in coboration with Red Kings, Venoms always like to be the attacker instead of being the defender, they attack like thieves, as they always target acupuncture points in the body of their prey, Alexander said with a little bit of disgust annoying sets of people Amelia raised her two brows upward That means they are more dangerous than the Red Kings Alexander shook his head Dont ever underestimate Knights people, They are always thest to take action and when they do. its always a bomb So The venoms are the attackers and the red Kings are Backers Venoms are like puppets to themAmelia analyzed as she began to understand the situation. You think in the same direction at me. the truth of the matter is, Lorenzo Go was once an Ally of The Alphas but it seems something yed out and he betrayed us and Coborated with the Red Kings, That was when a war broke out in the whole Europe and all the small mafia gangs Were all affected Amelia was suddenly interested in the whole topic No wonder you understand their mode of Fighting Yeah, Lorenzo Go knew lots of secrets about The Alphas, and siding with Knight was a huge blow and the Alphas were a bit in need of help, Alexander said All this happened when I emerged as the new Leader of the Alphas, my dad wanted to see how Ill handle the matter to know if I waspetent enough, so I had to put in more efforts and I became distant from everyone and that was the period Hry started two-timing with Collin, my secretary and friend You didnt give her attention but thats still not appropriate to do! Amelia said she didnt like those that y with peoples feelings like that. Alexander chuckled After the breakup, I was even more focused as the fight between the Alphas and the Red Kings in coboration with Venom became so heated I then started joining forces with other gangs, that was when The alphas had an official coboration with the Whackers gang, owned by Mr Frederick Whacker, he was my dads friend but they never coborated since they didnt feel the need to, but the fight made us partners, And there was Phoenix, Also known as Liam who had his forces aside the alphas, there was George, known as Sly who had his men Did the Hitmen and Cobras not join forces with the Red Kings and Venom?? I mean, that was a good opportunity to Amelia was inquisitive and Alexander was already exhausted in talking so he drank a mouthful of water, its being long he talked for too long, just because of his wife, he was. No, there didnt, we became enemies after the war, We sessfully uprooted The red kings from Europe and they were disbanded Venom was on a low key as their gang was also greatly affected by the war Alpha became the top One gang in Europe after the war, and our aide, Whackers became top two and I became the Don Alexander said briefly and rxed his back on the chair. It was already so dark but his little inquisitive wife didnt want to let go of him so soon. And what are your preparations for The red kings that came back after getting banded they should not be allowed to operate since they were disbanded I let them be, theres something I want to find out first, Alexander said calmly. Ooh?? Ive got my eyes on them I have my means Amelia nodded and rested her back on the chair, she had heard a lot today and then it hit her. What about The Cobras and Hitmen?? Theres not too much to talk about them since Liam helped me eliminate their strong sources and Im just waiting for them to start barking before I pull out their fangs Youre evil It came out as apliment as Amelia nodded at him.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Thats the rule of the game, its either you kill. or get killed! Yeah. but you had a boring story though Alexander looked at Amelia for a while before turning to face her even more. You dont have to feel inferior by anyone Amy, you dont have to know about my past because of inferiority, just focus on the present situation and look forward to the future Amelia was immediately startled that he found out, She was a bit jealous of Ash who was always talking about how they grew up so she asked these questions so she wouldnt be left out. She was feeling a bit inferior to Ash who knew a lot of things about Alexander than her, especially when she was gloating about it when they did that truth and dare game. Amelia didnt deny it and just nodded Copy that! Alexander smiled and rubbed her hair before rxing on the chair and asking; So how did you end up in the military?? Alexander suddenly asked To cut a long story short, I was framed by Jolie when I was fifteen, iming I broke the familys heirloom, so my dad threw me into the military camp as punishment, Amelia said with boredomced in her tone. He did well for you, I mean youre strong now, even more than your age mates, Alexander said as he nodded approvingly. At first I hated him for that, but after A while, I realized he was punishing me but I was getting more exposed and stronger so I dont hate him that much, Amelia said calmly. Okay now, enough of the talks, Lets eatAlexander said as he ced a chicken wing on Amelias te. Amelia only pouted without touching it. What do you want this time?? Alexander asked in frustration, she hadnt eaten anything since they came to the dining table. I want to eat something made by you!! Potato Soup And Sausage Uh?? Alexander was a bit startled by her request. Amelia blinked her puppys eyes at him Since you lived in America all by yourself, you must know some things about cooking, right?? Or did you just depend on Machelen chefs?? Amelia asked as she probed him further. Well not really, I cook sometimes, Mrs Gale taught me how to cook some meals back then, Alexander said Then make me a meal or two!!! Amelia was delighted to know he could cook, unlike her that was a total failure when it came to cooking. Sure thing! Alexander was very obliged and happy to cook for his wife, he wanted to impress her with his cooking skills. So he readily stood up and dropped the napkin on the table, ready to set out and make some meal for them both. Ill help you in the kitchen, Amelia said and got up from the chair, ready to go with him. No, you just stay here, I dont want you hurting yourself! Alexander immediately refused, Amelia was not too good at handling kitchen instruments so she could hurt herself with it. Im not the one cooking the meal, I just want to help with some things! Amelia said never backing down. What if oil spills on your hands or you cut yourself!!?? Alexander asked instead as he took her hand, directing her to go sit. Okay I wonte near the pot, Ill just sit and watch you make us dinner! Amelia negotiated and Alexander thought about it for a while and agreed. They both walked into the kitchen and Alexander led Amelia to the kitchen counter. There were stools near the kitchen counter. Stay here and let me make something for you, Alexander said and Amelia nodded and sat on the stool. Alexander thought of what to make as he searched through the fridge for ingredients. Amelia watched Alexander move around and she smiled and got down from the stool. Even as he was busy, Alexander still caught a glimpse of Amelia getting up from the stool and he immediately turned to look at her. Silly, can you go back and sit!? He was worried for her but she didnt even look his way and directly went to the small hanger close by took out an apron and walked towards him. Alexander knew what she was up to and he remained quiet for a while. Amelia walked towards Alexander and gestured for him to lower his head and heplied, allowing her to wear him the small pink apron. Didnt see this apronst time I came to the kitchen! Alexander said and almostughed out when he saw the small bunny head imprinted in the apron. It looked so childish. I bought itst time when I went to the mall, Amelia said and smirked, when she had told Alexander she was gonna get back at him, she already had some things nned so she bought this apron. So you already nned to make me cook you a meal so you prepared an apron beforehand. Nice one! Alexander smiled as he looked at the apron and allowed Amelia to tie the belt to his back. After tying it, Amelia stood a step back to see the apron on him and she almostughed out loud. Cant believe a mafia was currently tying a bunny apron!!! Wait a moment! Amelia said and drew her phone out and Alexander knew this girl was surely up to no good. You cant possibly-This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Click Click. Before Alexander couldplete his statement, Amelia had already taken shots of him and he was rendered speechless. This is an infringement of rights!! Alexanderined small like a child with no harsh tone. Amelia didnt even mind him and looked at the pictures she had taken. Because Alexander was talking while she took the pictures, His mouth was slightly open and it made him look like a roadside chef who was taking orders from his customers. Amelia smiled as she stared at Alexanders pictures, Cant he be less handsome for once!?? Even if he was in a bad state and had cream spilled on his face, he would still look dazzling to the eyes. Amelia walked to the stool and sat down and Alexander walked towards her ced both hands on the kitchen counter and said: Ill cook three meals as fast as I can, its sote already so please bear with me! Amelia smiled at him No problems Sir.. Alexanders eyes flickered Dont call me that again, Im your husband! Amelia didnt make anyment on that and just rxed herself on the stool. Alexander went to the fridge and brought out his ingredients for making Asparagus Frittata With Burrata and Herb Pesto. That was the first course. Amelia watched Alexander Rinse the asparagus, and pan dried it. Before Alex Cut them into 1-inch pieces on the diagonal, before Settling them aside. Alexander was so serious in his duty, his sleeves rolled up and the apron tied around his waist. Amelia couldnt help but take a picture of him cutting the asparagus. Alexander took a blender and washed it before pouring olive oil, basil, and parsley to make a thin pesto. Season with salt and pepper. Amelia was already so impressed with his handwork. Alexander Quickly pours in eggs and stirs with a wooden spoon, as if making scrambled eggs. he didnt forget to Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. And then he Laid a lid over the skillet and turned off the heat. After some seconds, Alexander Set the whole burrata in the center of the frittata. Drizzle with herb pesto. He slowly Pierce the burrata with the tip of a knife and spoon contents over the frittata, he then Cut the frittata into wedges and serves directly from the pan, garnished with basil leaves. Setting that aside, he went for the second meal and then a third. Amelia helped from time to time by handing him tes and helping to taste the soup he prepared. He had made a soup called German Potato Soup With sausage. Amelia hadnt tasted German cuisine before and she was already drooling over the set dishes. After preparing a whole meal, Alexander dropped the apron and dragged a stool to the seat. Amelia immediately took her cutleries and was prepared to dig in. Be careful, its still hot Alexander reminded the girl who had already started fetching some soup into her bowl. Nothing can kill Me.. Amelia used her spoon to take some soup and she was about to put it in her mouth but Alexander held her hand and He leaned on her. Amelia didnt know what Alexander was up to as he brought his face towards her spoon, Amelia immediately widen her eyes. Thats the soup Alex, dont drink mine- Alexander didnt respond and just started blowing air on the Soup, he blew on it till he was satisfied that it was warm. Drink it now, its not hot anymore Test Results Ohh?? Amelia was once again embarrassed, she had thought Alex wanted to drink her soup. Alexander ate his dinner slowly and cut some Chicken wings for Amelia. Amelia helped Alexander pill some eggs before cing them in his bowl. Thanks, Alexander said and took the egg from his te and ate it. After a while, Amelia slowly digested her food and drank a mouthful of water to bring it down. She got up and took the tes to the washing hand basin. Alexander sat on the stool as he watched Amelia do the dishes. They looked like the typical husband and wife, Alexander loved every bit of this moment. He didnt want this moment to end so soon. He wanted this night to be long and never end as he didnt want to wake up the next morning to face reality. After doing the dishes, Amelia sat close to Alexander as she probed her head to look at Alexander who was also staring at her. Umm I meant to tell you. theres this friend of mine that died of heart disease, We met at the military camp and shed been like the elder sister I never had.. her funeral is in four days and Ill be attending, Amelia said calmly as she gazed at Alexander who was nodding. Okay. we will both go to the funeral together, Id like to see her too and pray for her, Alexander said. Amelia nodded Okay, its all settled then. Amelia slowly yawned as she got down from the stool. Im off to bed now! Amelia said and sluggishly walked out. Alexander walked behind her as they both ascended upstairs, Mrs Gale just happened to havee out from her room. She watched the couples walk upstairs and a small smile formed on her lips before the smile suddenly dropped as she re-entered her room again. Alexander turned off themp close to Amelia and Amelia didnt have any funny ideas this time around. Alexander lies on the bed with Amelia on the other side. Alexander turned to face Amelia and she looked at him before quickly averting her gaze. Her eyes roamed around the ceiling, wondering why he was sleeping like that, he should just face the other side!! Amelia looked at him again and he just shed her a smile. Sleep already Ameliained and he raised a brow. Its almost morning, lets just have some rest, Alexander said and leaned toward Amelia and ced her head on his arm. Amelia was as if she was electrocuted, Her head was ced on Alexanders arm and she couldnt help but lean in a bit towards him to Be morefortable. Alexander had already slept off, he looked so tired as his eyes closed and went to dreand. It took Amelia a while before sleeping, She curled up in Alexanders arm as if she had found a new ce to rest. It was sofortable sleeping in Alexanders arms, he was muscr and broad while she was petite. Alexander was sleeping facing the ceiling while she wrapped his arms from the side. She didnt know when she slowly ced her head on his chest and dozed off. In the early morning, as the sun prated the room, It came along with the sweet and fresh air. Birds chirped as the window was sprung open for the natural air toe in, it was so cool inside the Room.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Amelia couldnt help but rx more into the warm pillow, she loved this new spot. Alexanders eyes opened a bit as he was about to move his hand when he felt the weight on his arms. A smile crept up to his face as he watched the Snoring girl in his arms. Her lips were slightly apart as she snored. Her hair was scattered on the bed and some were resting on his arms, she was nevertheless, still so beautiful and cute. Her small lips were pouted as she readjusted her head on his arms. Alexander looked at the table close by, He took his phone and turned on the camera. Amelia was still sleeping on his arms and he slowly brought his face close to her and ced a small kiss on her forehead. He didnt remove his mouth from her head and immediately took a selfie in that position. After taking the shot, hey straight and looked at the picture. It was so beautiful especially when the sun rested on them, as it kissed her fair skin. A small smile disyed on his face, and he dropped his phone on the table. Just then, a ding sound came from Amelias phone that was on the other side. Alexander frowned as another ding sound came again, it must be something important. With that thought, Alexander slowly removed Amelias head from his arm but she gripped his arm so tightly as she groaned inint. She was still sleeping but due to the disturbance, she frowned with lips pouted. Alexander was frustrated at the girl who was clinging to his arm like a monkey. This time, he was careful as he took a pillow and ced it under her head and he slowly withdrew his arms from under her head. Amelia held the pillow and she slept on it. Alexander got down from the bed and walked towards the other side, he grabbed her phone and looked at her for a while. Trying to tell himself that he wasnt invading her privacy. After that, he turned on the screen and saw that the two messages were from George. One was a picture and the other was a message. He couldnt see the picture because the screen was locked and he didnt know the password to unlock her phone. But he could see the message that clearly stated below: {that is a screenshot of the test result we did on Ash, still cant believe it Arghh} Alexander frowned and looked at Amelia. He began to fix the puzzles, George wasnt one to start working with anybody unless there was either a benefit or he had promised to do that. Amelia couldnt possibly have business dealings with George and the only reason left was. He had promised to do it! Alexander suddenly remembered The request from that truth and dare game from before. Amelia had stalled that request and he was wondering what she was gonna Do with George and it just so happened that she must have used it to request George run a test on Ash. Alexander dropped her phone on the table, That was to say, Amelia also suspected Ash not being sick. He didnt investigate it because it didnt matter too much and he had suspended it but now that it has finallye.. He will as well see it!! Mortuary Alexander walked out of the room and walked towards his study which was a bit dimmed. Alexander went to sit on his chair and he crossed both legs as he rxed his back on the chair. He took out his phone and made a call to George. After the call got connected Send me the test result you sent to Amelia this morning! Alexander went straight to the point. Uh?? What test?? George was still trying to recover from the shock that Ash had lied about her illness. They had always pampered her and felt remorseful towards her that she was sick and wouldnt be able to live a long life like girls of her age. But it all turned out to be lies. He had sent the report to Amelia just as nned and now, Alexander was asking him to send him the report too. George had promised Amelia to keep it confidential but he also couldnt go against Alexander. Dont y dumb with me Mr Stones George!! Alexander threatened and George was immediately serious. Hearing his full name from Don X was already so rming, whenever he called ones full name, he was dead serious. Oh okay okay-Ill send it to you! George immediately disconnected the call and almost stumbled upon a chair as he searched through his phone and sent him the screenshot. Alexander saw the message and immediately tapped into it, the writing was small because it was a screenshot, and he had to zoom the picture to see it. His neutral face immediately turns Solemn and Cold after seeing the negative in the Result. ying such nonsense game Alexander muttered before dropping his phone, he gazed at the time, it was 7:20 am. His little wife had slepttest night so he didnt disturb her to wake up now and allowed her to sleep. He walked out of the study and walked towards their bedroom, Alexander checked if the small woman was still asleep. He opened the door and peeked into the room behind the door, the small woman was still curled up in the bed as she slept peacefully. Seeing that she was still asleep, he walked downstairs and saw Mrs Gale and the maids preparing some dishes. Good morning Mrs Gale Alexander walked into the kitchen and the three maids there bowed at him and Mrs Gale responded to his greeting. You dont have to make breakfast Mrs Gale, Ill do it, Go rest well, Alexander said and Mrs Gale was surprised. Alexander raised a brow at her forgot you taught me how to cook before?? I want to make something for Madam Oh okay Mrs Gale nodded absentmindedly and Alexander looked at her for a while before watching them leave the kitchen. Alexander didnt linger in his thoughts as he quickly went down to business, Amelia might wake up soon. Alexander made a bowl of rice, Chicken stew, and Two bowls ofmb soup. he didnt forget to add some eggs and veggies. Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Amelia was woken up by the ringtone of her phone. Her brows were joined together as she stretched her hands and saw that Alexander wasnt in bed, she looked towards the table and grabbed her phone. She got up from the bed and sat with her back on the headboard. She cleared her throat and answered the call from Luke Robertson, her father. Hello! Ill go straight to the point, We forgot to tell you yesterday, today well all be heading to your mothers Burial ground to burn some candles and incense, you meet us there, Luke said from the other side, he was in a good mood that morning as that mysterious helper named Mrs. Ash had helped them clear all their bills and even gave them a huge amount of money for their upkeep. Amelia frowned a bit Its not yet Moms Death day! Such unfilial child, Must it be on her death day before you go see her?? Bad child, juste there and besides the grave has some grasses around it, Ill handle thatLuke said and looked at his wife beside him who nodded at him. Amelia thought about it for a while, what could they possibly do in a mortuary?? And if it was an ambush?? Her father could do anything but wanting to kill her was as close to impossible!! Okay, alright then what time?? Amelia asked to be sure of when toe. By 9 am this morning, I heard it is bad to visit mortuaries in the evenings so lets just go in the morning! Luke said from the other side. After understanding his message, Amelia ended the call. For some reason, she wasntfortable with these arrangements. After cooking the meals, Alexander put them each in a lid box. He took the meals to the dining table and walked upstairs to their bedroom. He saw the woman sitting on the bed with her phone in her hand. Alexander thought she might have possibly seen the true message. After the phone call earlier, Amelia had indeed seen the message, she had quickly typed a thank you text to George. He had gone through a lot for her. Good morning! Alexander said as he made his way to her. Amelia looked at him Good morning Alex She smiled at him a bit and got up to go watch her face. Alexander watched her leave, so she didnt even n on telling him about Ash if he hadnt found out about it. Amelia was thinking separately from the rest of the world. If it was other girls, knowing that Ash was in love with him, they would want to spoil Ashs name in front of him so He could have Ash on his bad side and have this type of good evidence to wipe Ash from the chapter, they would dly show him first thing in the morning. But Amelia didnt, she didnt talk about Ash or show him the results.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. What type of substance was this woman made of??? Little Fierce Pumpkin Amelia came out of the bathroom and walked towards Alexander. That day was a Friday and they were supposed to be at the office but Alexander doesnt seem to be going that day. She had observed that Alexander sometimes takes leaves on Fridays. Arent we going to the office today?? Amelia asked to be sure. And when do you suddenly love to work this hard?? Well be staying home today, Ill work from home while you just rx Alexander said as he sat on the couch opposite the bed. Amelia walked towards their bed and sat on it, the bed was just opposite the couch. I wish I could rx today! Amelia said small and Alexander raised a brow at her. And why is that?? My dad just called me that the family is going to my mothers burial ground to burn incense and light some candles! Amelia said and Alexander nodded. Do you want me toe along with you?? Alexander asked, totally ready to tag along. Id prefer you dont, I should go alone, we can go someday on our own and not with my family, Amelia said calmly as she looked at her fingers and Alexander noticed something was off about her. You dont seem to want to go! He stated. I dont know but Im not having a good feeling about this journey, not that I dont want to go visit my mom but. Her voice trailed off. .. You just have a bad premonition about itAlexander helped herplete her statement and Amelia nodded at him. Then thats a problem because if you dont go and it turns out you are just being paranoid because of what happened at your fathers house, it might make you seem like a bad daughter who is unfilial towards your mom, Alexander said out some facts and Amelia nodded. But if also turns out your hunch was right.. it might be a disaster, Alexander said calmly as he began to think. I dont want to go cause this feeling is so disturbing! Amelia pouted, waiting for Alexander to give her some solutions. They were like a five and six, thinking alike and they were also both scheming and calctive, Amelia didnt know if it was because they were a husband and wife Or because theyd lived together for a while now, Amelia was always going for the bulls horn while Alexander kills slowly from the ce it hurts the most. Dont worry, Ill have my men surround the ce for you and leave the rest to me, Ille to pick you up, if something was to happen, run out of the mortuary as fast as you can and my car would just be few miles away Alexander said that but Amelia wasntfortable. Isnt that you stilling with me just that you wont being in?? Maybe Im just scared because of what happened thest time at the Robertsons mansion! Amelia said to shake off the tension she was feeling. That very day, you had also said you had a bad feeling about going to your parents house, and truly, something happened, they threw you into a cold basement, I dont want a simr thing happening to you. ever! So its better to be safe than sorry Alexander remembered how frightened and sick Amelia was those days and it pricked his heartstrings. I dont think it will be as bad as an ambush or killing me in The mortuary! Amelia said and Alexander shook his head. I dont usually read the Bible but I know about the story of Joseph who was sold by his brothers, anything can happen and I dont wanna take any risk, Alexander said and Amelia suddenly chuckled. I never knew Mafia also know Bible! Ameliaughed at Alexander. The devil itself knows the bible, what am I??, I know some parts, wanna test me and hear the stories I know about?? Alexander said with pride and Ameliaughed even more. Alexander watched herugh and he was satisfied that he could at least make her mind calm down a bit. But then again, I urge you to go, trust me Okay?? Alexander was suspecting some foul ys, as much as he wanted to know about it, he also wouldnt intentionally put Amelia in danger. Amelia nodded at him I trust you, Alexander Alexander smiled And thats what matters! Ill go make preparations now, you get ready ande downstairs to have some delicacies made by this fine man here! Alexanderughed and walked towards the door to leave.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Narcissistic! Amelia said with a small smile as she got up to go take a shower. I heard that yunno ?? Alexander said as he made his way out and closed the door. Amelia entered the bathroom to take a shower. Meanwhile, at the nextpound close by, Ash was pacing around the room with her phone in hand. Knight its now! Ash said and Knights snort came from the other side, it was so loud. What youre plotting today is a total waste but Im only agreeing to that because thats just what I want to do I dont understand, are you nning something else?? You promised to back up the Green-level assassins for this moment!! Ash was so red, she didnt want to believe that she had just been a pawn to Knight. Yes my men will, and Ill also go along with the arrangements but the only thing I want to let you know is that this is not the main deal, Ive got a lot of things nned up and well seasoned for that matter Knight chuckled as he ced both legs on his table in a leisure manner with a ss of wine in one hand. Ash hummed and ended the call. Knight Cyrus knew what he was aiming at and telling a mere woman with Virginia was a total waste. Coupled with the fact that Ash wasnt even As half-smart as Amelia. At the thought of Amelia, Knights upper lips tinted up. I think its been a while though, that little fierce pumpkin Knight smiled as he remembered the multiple times, Amelia always threatened him even if there were hints of fear lurking around her eyes she still said all the piece she wanted to say to him. Alexander just you wait for something big! Who Payed You? Amelia arrived at the gate of the mortuary but she didnt get off the taxi just then. She took out her phone and dialed Alexanders number which was immediately answered. All set?? She asked and Alexander hummed. All good!Alexander looked around from his car. Amelia sighed What if were just overthinking things?? Then that will be good news! Alexander replied calmly, he didnt want to experience the fear he felt when he found Amelia in that dark and cold basement, looking pale and cold. It was much better than they were just exaggerating and Lowering their guards and then Amelias father took them by surprise. Amelia got out of the car after ending the call. She directly walked in with a tulip in her hand and a bottle of incense. She gazed around as her mind kept beating. Alexander watched through the rear mirror, A man pushing a truck passed by his car and Raised his cap to look at the Car Alexander was in. They both locked gazes before the man dropped his head and walked past his car. Alexander typed a message to someone and he slowly drove away to a distance. Amelia took out her phone and called Luke. Hello, Dad where are you guys?? Thought youd be waiting at the gate for me??! Her suspicions had already risen to the maximum as she looked around. Because it was daytime, she couldnt see the red small and narrow light pointing directly at her head. It seems to be revolving around because of how Amelia kept making turns.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Amelia was looking around as she held the phone close to her ear. Umm that, something came up and we couldnte, just go home already! Luke said as he walked towards the small sofa in his sitting room and sipped from his coffee. Marion and Jolie went out shopping as they had enough cash now to spend. So the rest of their days would be brighter. Never knew you could be this despicable.. Amelia tried to sound calm as she plugged her free hand into her bag and ced her thumb finger on a small case that looked like a pen. She brought it out as she ced her thumb finger on it. Dear daughter, you dont have to be that silly, Im your father and know whats best for you You disgust me! Amelia frowned as she looked in a particr direction and saw the sniper pointing directly at her. There was a small wooden-like structure close to where she was standing, Amelia ran towards that direction and it seemed the sniper had already predicted that she would run into that structure, so the sniper fired in that direction. Amelia had made only two steps before she diverted and ran zigzag along the tombstone as she headed towards the gates. Damn woman! The sniper cursed as he realized that the small woman had only meant to fool him. He kept shooting at random ces as the bullets hit some tombstones and shattered them. Amelias mind was in her throat as she tried to dodge and move from one tombstone to another. But everywhere she went, the gun always seemed to go in that direction as the bullets damaged a lot of tombstones. She ran towards the gate, but it was close by God knows who, she quickly ran in the opposite direction. She had been here for some time, she came to this cemetery to visit her mothers grave, that was before she got married, so she knew the ins and outs of this cemetery. Amelia pressed on the Pen and it connected to the Ear phone on her ear her voice came out inaudible as she raced along. Where are you, Amelia?? Come towards the eastern part of the mortuary! Alexanders voice came from the other end, it seems whoever nned the ambush was good at it, his cars brake was cut when he wasnt aware. So he had to be careful. Heading towards the eastern gates, theres a sniper so please be careful! Amelia climbed over a wall and jumped on the small boxes that were arranged as she bent her back as she ran along. She tried to stay calm as she remembered her days back in the military, she wasnt too overwhelmed because she had been through with this before. Just when Amelia was about to reach towards the east, a bullet was shot at her arm and she groaned out loud and fell to the ground. There she is get her! A mans voice rang as the sounds of footsteps approached Amelia. Amelia quickly got up to run but it was already toote as the man held her hand and dragged her up. Amelia was so angry as she red at the six men in front of her, she roamed her eyes at their bodies and began to observe them. Ah acting so tough a few minutes ago huh?? Damn you little wenchThe man cursed at Amelia as he grabbed her hair. So fierce and hardcore, A Guy said from their midst. The man holding her hair took out his phone and dialed a number We have her Already! After listening to the person from the other side, he hummed and ended the call. They want her at the location! Amelia didnt budge as she looked at them closely. Them?? Ash must be involved and her so-called dad and his bastard family, were all aplices but how did Ash get them to work with her.. Amelia could only imagine it, if not money, there was nothing else! Her father was a very greedy man who could do anything for Those notes that had the portrait of Benjamin Franklin on the front of the note and a vite of Independence Hall on the back of the note. Bunch of $100 notes!!! Get moving or we take you by force and dont me us for being rude by then! Amelia snorted at them So boring I wanna see you try! Amelia said with no hint of fear in her, she wasnt holding onto her injured arm as she took her hand back and pressed on the pen to connect with Alexander. You fool, trying to act tough is not gonna do you any good! The man said as he grabbed her injured arm and she hissed in pain. Who paid you toe after me!?? Amelia said with gritted teeth This is the gate at the east so be fast to quickly take me away! Thest statement was a code Alexander had taught her. It was simply telling him her location. Blame Yourself For My Decisions Of course, we will take you with us because You have a death wish! The leader said and immediately dragged On Amelias hand but she was too quick for him to realize that he was at a disadvantage. Amelia twisted his wrist and his eyes widened in shock, before he could process what was happening, Amelia had already used a total amount of strength to punch his groin and he twisted his face in pain. Fools, dont just stand there gawking! Get her! The leader immediately shouted and Amelia quickly ced his hand under her leg she bent the hand upward and it made a sound. Pain! Ill kill you! The leaders face had already turned red and the other five men immediately rushed towards Amelia in an all-kill. Amelias eyes constricted, she couldnt face them head-on because of her injured arm that was bleeding profusely. Tsk tsk. fool A gush of wind blew past the only thing that could be heard when the men groaning sounds. Alexander slowly walked in long strides towards Amelia, his back to the men. They were all taken by surprise to see an intruder, they were all paid to get thisdy and they even had to work with some people to get this woman but it seems that their mission wont beplete. Let me see!Alexander immediately took her arm but Amelia tried to shake his grip off her. Let go, we have to get out of here first, what if their reinforcementse get us??! Amelia was a bit shaken from what took ce a few minutes ago so she immediately urged him they leave the vicinity. Dont worry about that my men have taken over the area and as for Alexander dropped Amelias arm after inspecting it, it was just a brush, the bullet didnt prate but brushed past her arm. Alexander shot a cold ze at the men who were groaning on the ground and the leader was holding onto his private region. Alexander gave Amelia a ridiculous look and Amelia shrugged at him an amused smile shed on his lips before it suddenly turned cold as he shot the men a cold and piercing look. Didnt your mother warn you to be good and stay out of trouble?? Alexander asked as he slowly walked towards the leader who tried to creep away backwards. Who-who are you?? The leader was so afraid, this man was so imposing and The way he took his men down within seconds was astonishing and terrifying. He couldnt afford to go against him. Alexander bent down to the leader who suddenly felt small in the presence of Alexander. Imma Legend and a myth you wouldnt want to learn about! Alexander as quick as lightning, tore the long sleeve the man was wearing and there was an SSA on his arm in the form of a tattoo. Alexander just chuckled lightly Children Square Silencer Assassins!! Too bad Alexander walked towards Amelia and held her arm. Amelia was bbergasted as they both just walked past The men who were referred to as SSAs. Alexander just wanted to let them go just like that!?? Amelia was looking at Alexander as they walked out, Alexander opened the car for her and she got in. He had trashed the car earlier when it failed to brake, he quickly had his men bring him the one they were driving. Whats with the questioning gaze?? Alexander suddenly asked as Amelia sat on the chair. Are you just letting them go just like that?? Not that Amelia was a devil and wanted their lives but I wanna take revenge on them, they hurt me, so its only right they have a taste of their medicines! Alexander chuckled and walked towards the other side. He didnt waste time as he drove off. Dont worry, Ill let you satisfy your taste for revenge, Ill personally bring them to your table and you have to do anything you want to them.. And how will you do that when you let them go in the first ce! Amelia looked out the window and realized they were heading in a different direction from home. Probably the hospital?? I dont have the time to address them so I hand them over to my men! Alexander said and continued driving along the stony road of the cemetery. Amelia nodded in understanding I thought as much!All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. You think Im evil?! Alexander looked at her for a while and his eyes drifted to her arm which was stained with the blood from her injury, He was so angry. I dont! Ill let you know this, this whole incident seems like a nned trap to distract me from the main problem! Amelia frowned deeply as she looked at Alexander confusingly How so?? I just got a call from Gary that My warehouse was invaded a few minutes ago and my weapons were almost shipped out and the men guarding the warehouse at that time were killed, I think this whole cemetery scenario was to divert my attention from my warehouse because they knew I will focus more on your safety so they saw an opportunity to attack Amelia was immediately regretful, she had brought harm to Alexander multiple times I thought my dad and his family set me up but I feel as if they have a backer now, a strong backer! Amelia said calmly as she pressed the small piece of cloth on her injuries. Knight Ash! Amelia had said it was Knight while Alexander said it was Ash, what the hell was happening? Alexander and Amelia looked at each other and their eyes constricted. Maybe Both! Both! They also said simultaneously and Alexander just looked out of the window. Knight must be involved but I think he didnt do much because whenever he attacks, its always in fullbat, Only Ash could be this dumb to do things in such lowly methods Alexander said as a cold glint passed by his eyes. I think Ash must have been convinced by dad to lure me to this cemetery so you can alsoe as well and then they did the Main n without any obstruction. Im sorry Alex, I should have gone myself! And then what will happen?? You were almost killed a few minutes ago. Amelia, youre my wife, whatever it takes to protect you, Ill do it without turning back so dont me yourself for my decisions, because Ill always choose you! Alexander said as his voice carried a hint of frustration, Urgency, and a lot of weight. Won’t Live To See The Sunset Amelia swallowed hard but still Not buts, I wanna spoil you and protect you with every fiber in me so dont waver.. Ill get information on who sent those green level assassins to you! Green level assassins? what is the Square silencer though?? Amelia asked Lets get your wound treated first then Ill tell you everything! Alexander said and parked the car in the garage of the warehouse. Thought you were bringing me to an hospital! Amelia got down from the car as well as Alexander. Taking you to an hospital is more problematic, our private doctor wille over to the warehouse, while he treats you, Ill attend to things here! Alexander held Amelias hand and walked towards the warehouse. Elliot had his head down as he walked towards Alexander in fear. He had went to inspect the other warehouses and let his men under him take care of things. Several weapons were confiscated and robbed by the intruders. Sir. Elliot started but he only earn a cold re. Head up! Alexander said coldly and Elliot shivered with his head up and his back straight as cold sweat formed in his back. He didnt even know when he held his breath. Take her to the clinic and let the doctor attend to her wound, Im off!Alexander said and walked out, Amelia didnt say a word and just left with Elliot. Elliot knew what his master was like but surprisingly he just ask him to bring his madam to the clinic His master has changed a lot Alexander walked coldly towards the warehouse, the men stood on both side with their back straight. Gary, over here! George Alexander beckoned as he went into the office and George and Gary took a seat. What about Phoenix?? Alexander asked imposingly as he ced both legs on the table, both crossed. Over here! Liam slowly walked in and sat on the couch. Alexander cleared his throat lets begin! Sir I investigated the matter, the men who had intrude the warehouse and and took several guns, daggers and sniper rifles are men from Hitmen gangs and the Cobras, they just made an oath of alliance few days ago Gary stated as he began to recount all he had dug up. Those brats are suddenly bing rebellious! Sly snorted as he sat there with both hands on the chair. Alexander raised a brow We were attacked at the mortuary earlier, and the assassins just so happen to be SSAs, I believe Ash is not innocent on this! Alexander said calmly and Georges eyes shrieked back. We know she had indeed lied about her illness but shes still our friend and I dont think she has the heart to do something to you, moreover. we all know she likes you! And what if I tell you Amelia was the target?? I helped her, and that was also part of their n, to divert my attention from what they were nningAlexander analyzed so they had the chance to invade my warehouse! But still, we have no evidence Ash is the culprit! And how can she have the manpower to do two things at a time?? Knight is the only person that can do such things Phoenix who had listening to the whole conversation frowned deeply am I missing something here?? I dont know what you guys meant with Ash lying about her illness but one thing I know of is that she can be a little vengeful at that! And to top her stupidity, she actually Contracted my assassins toe after my wife! Alexander said with a little frown on his face. If only Ash and knight were aware of the fact that he was the owner of Square Silencer ck market, they would have dropped dead. So you mean Ash is working with Knight?? George asked skeptically as he looked at the two men who had almost same expression. And knight is also working with Hitmen and Cobras! Phoenixpleted. Alexander dropped his leg on the floor,I think theyve just drawn the line! We can also y along Hurried footsteps Resounded as the heels clicked the cold and sparkling floor. Ash almost ran as she entered the study of Knight. I said be patient that I wasing downstairs, whye up!!?? Knight Cyrus said as he ced his ss of wine on the table.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. You fool! Pah Knights face was thrown to the other side as his face tinged due to the impact of the tight p. Ash gritted her teeth as she stared at Knight with bloodshot eyes. Knight was already angered as he gripped her neck and pressed her to the wall. Dare you to p me in your life Again, I promise you this. you wont live to see another sunset! Knight hated it when people temper with his face. His face was like his treasure, he didnt want anything to affect that face. Ashs eyes had turned red as she tried to breath as she made a quirky sound as she struggled to free his hand from her neck. Le-let-let go-off-off me!! Tears poured out of Ashs eyes as she struggled and Knight finally let go. What have youe here for?? Knight asked coldly as he took a tissue from his table and wiped his hands as if he had just touched dirts, he threw the tissues on the small recycling bin. Ash pressed on her neck to massage it, she cleared her throat multiple times you cheated, we had agree you help me with some reinforcements but instead, you only render a sniper along with the assassins I contracted! Ash said while still trying to catch her breath. Knight smirked I told you before, this is not my major n, this isnt worth my efforts, I have something else in mind! And which is?? Ash asked as she made a tight fist. Dont have to know, Ive fulfilled my own part of the bargain, I helped with a sniper and you let those green level assassins attack Amelia, didnt I tell you it was a waste?? Alexander had already caught the assassins and just know, youre over but then again, you didnt reveal your identity, so I guess youre safe knight grabbed his cube board and started ying with it. What do you have in mind Cyrus?? Ash asked, she wont allow Anythinge near Alexander. Knight smiled broadly as he looked out the window and he watched the cars roaming on the streets, his eyes darken even more. Very soon. it will all end! Free Kisses Three dayster It was a Monday morning, a work day but Alexander and Amelia wasnt going to work that day. Are you sure you dont want me toe with you?? Alexander asked as he stood at the back of Amelia who was applying an eye shadow. She was wearing a ck gown that was body fitted, and a side cut that entuated her curves and an open space for her long leg to be on disy. You already have a lot on your te now, dont bother with me, Ghost would being along with me and my injuries are already healed! you go do your things Amelia dropped the eye shadow on the table and stood up. Alexander looked at her for a while, he was more than sure now. After this whole thing with knight and his other foes, he would profess his feelings for Amelia and they would start afresh. Please be careful Amelia, I would have loved it if you stayed at home though! Alexander said as he looked at her eyes that were sparkling. I should pay myst respect for my friend! If I dont go, Ill forever be feeling guilty! Amelia said as her mind wandered to the past when Aditi and her were friends back in the military camp. Aditi Rahul had lived a painful life, she was an orphan who was adopted by a drunk and a prostitute, they had made her an object to vent their frustrations. She was mentally and physically abused by her prostitute of a mother and beaten by her dad who was violent when drunk. She had a dream to be a military and fight against child abuse because of her experiences. When she was finally epted into the military, she had a very partial superior who wanted to have sex with her and harass her at every chance he got. He was a big pervert. Few monthster, Amelia was thrown to the military camp by her dad, saying she was a gangster that needs to be corrected in the harsh way possible. When Amelia happened to stumble upon the superior, trying to harass Aditi, she had intervened which also made her the top enemy of the superior. Seeing a savior, Aditi felt indebted to Amelia and they became friends not long after. They were so close as they shared punishments together and they learnt about their lives as they shared their stories about themselves. Aditi and Amelia were like musketeers as they clicked well. Everything was going well as they nned to wait for each other outside the camp after training, but it was unfortunate that Aditis illness red up and the military physician diagnosed her of heart disease which made her health deteriorate so much. Amelia was the first to leave the camp, she had always wished to leave the hell hole but when it finally happened, she didnt want to leave, she wanted to stay with Aditi. The superiors only let go off Aditi and paid for her treatment only after she was at the breach of death. Only after Aditis death, did a man suddenlye and im to be her uncle and the superiors wasnt hard on him because they didnt want to perform any rite so they quickly hand over Aditis corpse to the man. Aditi was Indian and same as the man who imed to be her uncle. Mr Aarush Yash. Amelia swallowed hard, if this was thest time, she woulde pay her respect. Be careful, well meet in the evening! Alexander slowly stroke Amelias hair and Amelias gaze softened as she gump hard. Look Alex, you have to make a promise to me this time around!.. as youre going to hunt down the cobras and Hitmen, please be safe, I want you back, no. I need you. Amelias voice trailed off as her tone lowered at the end of her sentence please promise me?? She sometimes wished her husband wasnt a mafia. Alexanders gaze softened even more as he looked at her with an undeniable Love in his eyes, he held her petite face and ced a small kiss on her forehead and Amelia closed her eyes slightly before opening it. Alexander looked at Amelia I promise you, Trust me when I say, Ill be safe, cmon have some faith in your husband, Im a Don Alexander teased as he also boasted with pride. Amelia let out a small chuckle I believe you.. my husband Alexander was shocked that she finally recognized him as her husband. Alexanders face brightened up a bit as he looked at Amelia deeply we have a lot of things to talk about when we get back! His voice was low and seducing. Amelia swallowed on her saliva, obviously aware of what he was talking about. She had known for a while now through Alexanders gestures and changes that he probably was in love with her already. She nevertheless nodded her head as she hugged Alexander who hugged her back and ced a small kiss on her head. Amelia pull away from the hug Okay, see you in the evening Let me walk you out! Alexander held Amelias hand and their fingers got intertwined as they walked out of the room. Mrs Gale walked behind them as she had her head down. Alexander opened the car door for Amelia and she slowly made her way in and sat.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. Thank you Alex! Its hubby, I wanna hear you call me that again! Alexander said as he leaned on her without locking the door. Amelia stick out her tongue at him till the evening time! Alexander grumbled just call me hubby already, must I have to wait for it?? Amelia looked at Alexander for a while, her eyes were covered in mist as she scrutinized Alexander for while with discerning gaze. Alexander raised a brow at her, who was looking at him as if she wanted to strip him. Having perverted thoughts about me?? Okay since you dont agree, you can go already before you go there-hmm He couldntplete his statement before Amelia grabbed his shirt and drew him close to her and she smashed her lips on his. Alexanders eyes widen in shock and Amelia just close her eyes to deepen the kiss. Alexander quickly recovered as he was about to kiss her back, she suddenly pulled away from him. Whyre you this evil Wifey??! Alexander grumbled and Amelia just chuckled. Youll get free kisses when you finallye back safe in the evening.. With that said, she quickly closed the door as Alexander took a step back, the car drove out of thepound. A very hateful look from behind Alexander, followed as the car drove out. Bitten Real Hard Amelias face was a bit red as the driver drove out of thepound, she was abit bold earlier. Her mind raced as she thought of what he said about them having a lot to talk about?? What does he want to say?? Amelia turn to look back at the house was not too out of sight. Alexander was still standing there but was making a conversation over the phone. Amelia looked at Mrs Gale who was also standing close to Alexander, Amelia was startled to see a very angry and fierce look on her face. Amelia thought she was hallucinating as she looked again but that evil and foreboding look was still on her face. As Alexander turn to face Mrs Gale, she put on a smile and walked in. Amelia blinked twice to see again but the house was already far away. She sighed and sat back down. Maybe she was imagining things. She prepared herself for the funeral that would be happening, it might take a while since, after the burial where theyll burn Aditis corpse, those who wish to stay, would follow them to where her ash will be stored in a special memorial building (columbarium). Alexander quickly got dressed as he took his car and drove towards Liams house. He kept making calls along the road as he drove along the busy streets. Stay put, dont let them suspect anything, just wait for my signal! Yes Don X The other person from the side said as he stationed close to the Mansion where the Hitmen usually gather. They had the habit of meeting secretly every Mondays, theye to gamble amongst themselves. They could be considered as one of the most stupid and Money addicted set of people, they loved Money which had always being their weak point and it was unfortunate for them that Alexander investigated them this time and he was gonna use it against them. Alexander parked his car in the garage and went into Phoenixs house. His wife Weed them at the door, But Alexander had that stoic expression on. Sly was making several calls. X I just got a call from twenty five, they have stationed at the center exist of the Cobras Pyramid! George reported back. Between Hitmen and cobra, Alexander could Atleast put in a little bit of efforts when it came to handling the Cobras. The cobras were filled with mostly old and Dangerous men who didnt want to rest at home. They couldnt be underestimated as old mafias were more dangerous than the young ones. The cobras headquarter was a pyramid that was close to the drake passage. Alexander couldnt risk the lives of his men so casually so he had nned a counter measure attack, He would lure them out instead. But he knew they would suspect some foul ys so he had already shipped his men them before hand. Drake passage isnt some ocean that could be toyed with as it can produce ice. And had violet waves. Scientists often refer to rogue waves as extreme storm waves that surge out of nowhere, often in an unpredictable direction, and can look like a steep wall of water, up to twice the size of surrounding waves. These rare killer waves were once seen as a myth reported by mariners or explorers. The pr explorer Ernest Shackleton wrote in his book of a gigantic freak wave he encountered in Antarctica in 1916. However, scientists have learned more about them in recent decades, studying how they emerge and how to predict the wall of water that can surge up even in calm seas. Due to that reasons, Alexander had prepared so well as he brought a meteorologist along with his men. He couldnt afford for anything to go wrong! Just then, his phone rang and it was Gary calling. Speak! Sir, we were attacked from our hideouts by The red kings, what are we to do?? Some of us had managed to bring hide and we killed the men but we lost some other brothers! Alexanders veins popped up Dont worry, wait for reinforcements but for now Scatter and destroy the Hitmen!! Phoenix answered a call and Soon his face changed It seems we will be of a great help over there! Alexander looked at Phoenix who was already preparing to leave with that same calm expression on. Knight had sent his men over to drake passage to take down our men, they are aware of our ns for today, if we dont go over there, they might outnumber our men and things will be more deadly! Phoenix put on his ck jacket as he ced his pocket knife on his boot and a pistol inside his jacket. Could there be a spy amongst us?? This was suppose to be just eliminating two gangs but since its like this.. we will have to pay them all a visit! George was no longer the unserious Guy who likes to talk a lot, he had a very freezing look and his eyes could swallow a multiple of people at once. Alexander and George and Liam walked out of the living room as they walked towards Alexanders car. Liam instructed his men to guard his house and he tightened the securities, he didnt forget to kiss his wife who he urge to get into the house after kissing her. Be Okay! She said and walked in with an heavy heart. That was how the wives of mafias always felt whenever their husbands were going on a war with other gangs.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Alexander opened the back of his car and there were several weapons on the boots. Machine gun, Resolver, Assault rifle, Handgun, Crossbow, Brass knuckles, knives, Arquebus and others. George immediately took out his favorite Resolver and crossbow. Liam liked to toy with personal defense weapons, carbines, designated marksman rifles, multiple-barrel firearms, grenadeunchers, anti-tank rifles etc. He didnt have a particr choice. Alexander took the AK47 and inspected it before nodding and they set to get into the car. We have it all! Sly opened the back seat and got in along with Liam. Alexander ignited the car and drove out of the area, His eyes so cold and deadly. Knight has stepped on him, he should get ready to be bitten And Bitten Real hard! Aditi’s Ash Theyve just left the house! Finally Mrs Gale said over the phone, she was in her room as she held her phone close to her ear. Okay then, youve done well Gale! A mans voice came from the other side and she hummed before ending the call. The man at the other end Turn to Knight Cyrus who was sitting in a chair close to a shelf. The man was standing nearby with some other people. Gale Just informed me that Alexander had left the house, probably heading to the drake Passage! The man said, he was wearing a Suit That had a HM on the chest area. Shes really a genius! Knight said as he ced his lit cigarette on the cigarette tray close by. He sipped from his wine Leisurely. Grey Was sitting close to Knight as his right hand man Sir Cyrus, everything is set and them heading to the drake passage is already a good, tsk tsk if only they knew what await them! Grey smirked, finally he would be taking revenge on Alexander who had made him lose alot of brothers during the time their gang was uprooted from Europe. Knight suddenlyughed coldly in the group and the other men there shivered Fools Alexander is heading to The drake passage?? Nonsense.. he wont be so stupid to Go over there because he definitely knows that its a trap, that sly guy has something else up his sleeves! Knight suddenly said and Grey frowned. Does that mean he knows our ns and he isnt going to the drake passage as nned! Grey asked as he couldntprehend it. Just stay put, he is not so dumb Grey that is what Ivee to learn all these years! Knight said calmly but a sh of difort shed between his eyes. Alexander was just too hard toprehend. After the Indian rites for Burial were done, Aditis corpse was cremated and her ash were put in a small Go box. Ghost was just few steps away from Amelia who was standing close to the built structure where Aditis body was burnt. Amelia tried hard to hold in her tears as memories kept shing into her mind. Amelia you shouldnt be this head strong you know.. lets just be happy and make merry hurrah!!!! Aditi would say as her smile would be so wide. Sir superior you dont talk to my Amy in that tone, talk to me and not her!!! Whenever Aditi tried to stand up for Amelia, she get more punishments. After acting all tough, she would cry really hard after receiving punishment. Amelia felt she didnt do enough for Aditi, who was so fragile looking with pale skin, brown eyes and Dark ink hair. Im sorry Aditi Amelias body was trembling as she suppressed her tears. Her eyes roamed around andnded in the bodies of the superiors in the military camp. She would have Gone after that bastard superior that had made Aditi suffer but she heard he was Stripped from his position when he was discovered by the government at that time about how he misused his position and manhandles the females there. Due to the embarrassment and feeling depressed, hemitted suicide. May his soul rest in pieces Amelia gritted as she used her handkerchief to clean her snot. Amelias eyes trailed the ce as the Indian priest came to remove her ash. Ghosts eyes were everywhere as he inspected the ce and made Sure nothing goes wrong. Other Silent Guards That came along to protect Amelia were also Hidden along the ce. It was all going well, and soon Mr Aarush Yash came to inform them that They were heading to the Columbarium to store Aditis Ash. Amelia went along with them so she could put her candles there and pray before leaving. Ghost also followed closely behind and they all entered the Columbarium not too far from the field that they burnt Aditis body as she was Hindu. The columbarium was a big building with three floors, the second floor is where the Ash would be stored so alot of Indians that came along with Aaursh Yash and the priest came in, the superiors at the military didnte along as they felt they had did the needful and they all left. Amelia walked in too, just then she bumped into a person. Who- Amelia swallowed hard As she looked at who she had bumped into. Ah we meet again, good day Mrs Ron or rather Amelia Travis showed a cheeky smile but when he saw her face that was all swelled due to crying, he knew that she hade for a love one. Did your rtive die?? No, a- My best friend! Amelias eyes contain all sort of emotions as if she would tear up not long, But she wasnt gonna cry in presence of Another man except Alexander who would pet her. At the thought of Alexander again, Amelia frowned as she thought she should quickly Go to the Room where they were going to keep Aditis Ash so she could quickly run into a church and pray for the safety of her husband even though she had being muttering little prayers in her mind since, she felt she needed to go meet the God people imed exist. Amelia doesnt believe in God but because of Alexander, she was willing to Come to his feet and beg for his protection. Oh, I came to drop some tulips in my mothers Grave, my mom is Indian and my dad European so before she died, she said to have her corpse burnt because she wanted to be reincarnated as she imed! Travis let out a ridiculousugh As he shook his head self mockingly, back then he had urge his father to go ahead with it when he was still young, he thought his mother would truly be reincarnated and then he would get to see his mother again. But when he got to High school and then college, he found out such things only happen in myth and fantasy stories. It was a folktale and a superstitious belief. There was nothing like Reincarnation. Same with my friend, sorry about your mom though! Amelia said and Ghost eyes didnt leave Travis for even a minute.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Nah, its being long already, which floor are you going to?? Travis asked. The second floor, thats where my friends ash would be kept! Amelia said. Okay, when you guys are done, Ille meet you there, I have something to talk to you about and its about Mr Ron! Travis said calmly. Amelia frowned and what about it?? Dont worry, its nothing bad, just go first! Travis said with a smile and walked out. Amelia stood there abit before sighing and walked upstairs to the second floor. Feeling Of Adrenaline2 Are we seriously going to the Drake passage?? George asked. Youre so dumb George, do you think well possibly head there now?? Its a trap.. Phoenix answered and Alexander just continued driving to a different direction. He was unusual that morning, George was a bit confused, Alexander had a different vibe that morning. Alexander where are we heading now?? George asked calmly. To the Red kings! Alexander replied calmly as he took a sharp turn to a calm and lonely street. Wow. so drilled! I wanna see that bastard face go dry! George said As he licked his lips. Phoenix just snarled at him with contempt can you just stop doing that?? It gross! Phoenix said with disgustced in his tone. George just rolled his eyes and concentrated on where they were heading to. Alexander stopped the car in front of a big and dpidated Building that was like a Warehouse. This building was where it all started and it was going to end there. Alexander got down from the car along with George and Liam. Other Cars soon came as well, everyone was wearingbat uniforms also called field uniform, battledress, They are most often made up of a tunic a heavy-duty jacket pants, t-shirt, a cover (hat) and boots. The Combat uniforms were patterned in ck and an Alpha camouge. They all had stoic and cold expressions with Burly bodies. Alexander signaled them and they all dispatched along the ce. Knight Was also in the building, all these while, this was the ce he alwayse to. Meanwhile at the Columbarium, Amelia had lit her candles and Ghost was just at the door close by. Some janitors walked past him and he excused himself as he made way for them to pass. It seems they wanted to change the windows and Doors in the columbarium. The janitors Began to remove Windows and fixing new ones. Ghost looked their way before removing his eyes. The janitors were very discreet and fast as they carried their Ladder out to walk out. Just then, His Phone rang and it was Alexander calling. Ghost walked outside, since the Other Snipers were there and nothing seem to be happening. He climbed down the stairs as he walked towards a corner outside of the columbarium to make the call. It was an official call. Sir Is Amelia home yet?? Alexanders voice came from the other side. Not yet sir, Shes in the room where her Friends Ash would be stored, she insisted she lit some candles first and pray! Ghost exined the situation over their side. Alex remained silent for a while before saying Okay, be with her always! Is everything normal over there?? Alexander asked finally and Ghost roamed his eyes over the ce. He sighted all their men who were in ce, Some few people entering the building as they were all mourners, there were some janitors that walked out of the building. It seems the columbarium wanted everything new that day, All the windows and doors were reced. When Ghost didnt see anything unusual, he said calmly everything is Just then, a janitor bump into him and the janitor quickly bowed to ghost while muttering a sorry. Ghost just nodded At him as the janitor walked out in hurried footsteps that made Ghost frown and just then his eyes caught something on ground. hey you. Ghost widened his eyes to see The thing on the floor. And when he realized what it is Sir now I think something is wrong! Ghost said in a small voice without taking his eyes off the Red badge on the ground that had a RKs on it, it was imprinted on the badge. Whats that Ghost?? Talk clearly!! Alexanders voice rang out from the other side. Ghost Immediately turn back to walk into the columbarium. Its the Red kings!! Ghosts Voice hadntnded yet when a sound from the people outside rang out. Fire!!! Theres a fire! A gas just exploded!! Ghost immediately turn paled as he dipped his phone into his pocket and ran towards the building. He ran towards there but the door was locked. The main door to the building was stiff and it refused to budge. Soon there were crowds in front of the door, lots of people trying to open the door, Ghost ran away from the ce to contact his men. Somebody help, my husband that Went in to put flowers in our daughters tomb is inside!!! A woman cried out in pain as she wailed. Somebody help, some people are in!! The building might copse due to the Impact of the gas that exploded! Call the fire fighters!! A man shouted and everywhere were chaotic. Ghost had quickly went to call for help and the men from the alpha Gangs all came out from the hidden ce to hunt down the janitors. It must be their handwork!! A bullet resistant window and doors are tested to withstand the impact of 9mm handgun fired at close range up to assault rifles. So even if it was shot and An hammer was used to break it, it wont budge or have a single creak. bulletproof doors range in price from around $11, 000 to $30, 000. It must be Knights handwork, he could so much to do something. The janitors quickly got into a van at the side of an Alley and it drove off in immediate speed. Damn it! Ghost cursed under his breath as he watched the car dozed off. He quickly took out his phone Sir The columbarium Ghost!! I, Ill do something immediately, Ive called for reinforcements and helps from the headquarters! Ill be there soon, make sure nothing happens to Madam, Else..!! Alexander scowled From the other side of the phone, totally annoyed. Ghost ended the call soon and ran towards the columbarium to see the situation. Meanwhile Amelias heart raced as she witnessed smoke enveloping the Columbarium. She was still inside, surrounded by other mourners who had gathered to pay their respects. The peaceful atmosphere shattered as the fire broke out on the third floor and rapidly spread to the second floor.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. Panic gripped Amelia as she joined the frantic crowd running towards the first floor, desperately seeking an exit. However, their hopes were dashed when they discovered that the door leading outside was locked and refused to budge. The realization that they were trapped inside ignited a wave of fear and chaos. Amelias mind raced, desperately trying toe up with a solution. Amidst the chaos, she noticed a nearby window and directed her focus towards it. With a surge of adrenaline, she made her way towards the window. Synonymous With Death And Destruction But it felt as if She was poured cold water when the window was as stiff as a metal. What to do??All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Lets grab irons or anything hard to break the window, lets be fast, the fire is quickly spreading!! Amelia directed the people there. Some children were crying as women wailed. The men were few there as she quickly look for something to break open the window. Amelia tried to calm the women who were crying. See Crying does not solve anything, we just have to find a way out! Amelia said in frustration Dont talk to us in that tone, we are all scared here! Take your mouth somewhere else to pour your saliva!! A woman who seem crazed, shouted at the top of her lungs, her face was all swollen as she almost went mad!! Im the only source of hope for my family as my husband has passed away, leaving me with my two kids!! I cant die in here!! A woman cried bitterly as other women consoled her. Amelia almost cursed at the women who were acting so foolish do you women think Im not as equally scared as you are?? We are all in this situation so lets try to help ourselves first!! If we all seat here and cry all day, its like waiting for death!! Amelia didnt go soft on them and they all began to see reasons with Her and they wiped their tears. What-what are we to do?? A woman asked in creaked voices as she wiped her tears, eyes so red and bloodshot as if she had met with a terrifying Ghost!. Yes, you help us! Amelia nodded as she looked up to the stairs. The smoke would soon be reaching this floor so we have to be fast, some of you should Go grab something strong so we can try to prate the window and some go get something like nkets and water so we can give the little ones here so they wont suffocate from the heat! Lets get down to it!! Avoid any sort of dangers! Amidst the chaos, women frantically scoured the area in search of duvets and water, grasping for anything that could offer them some form of protection. Meanwhile, the men, driven by desperation, grabbed hold of rods and chairs, using them as makeshift tools to forcefully strike the windows in a desperate attempt to open them. However, despite their efforts, the windows remained stubbornly shut, refusing to budge or even creak open. Amelia, though overwhelmed by the unfolding situation, fought to maintain a calm state of mind. Realizing the urgency of the matter, she called out to the women who had gathered the clothes and water. Her voice, filled with a mix of determination and concern, resonated through the chaos. Lets dip the clothes into the water and tearrge pieces for everyone here so that we wont suffocate! Amelias words rang out, and the women swiftlyplied, their hands moving with a sense of urgency. Together, they dunked the garments into the water, saturating them thoroughly, before tearing them into sizable pieces and distributing them among the frantic crowd. Time seemed to elerate as the room grew increasingly shrouded in thick smoke. The air became suffocating, causing their eyes to burn and their lungs to ache. Amidst the swirling chaos, the piercing cries of frightened children pierced through the haze, amplifying the sense of fear and urgency. Mothers, attempting to muster courage, focused on the task at hand, bncing their own fears with the need to protect their loved ones. With each passing moment, the atmosphere grew more stifling, intensifying the race against time. As the torn pieces of damp cloth were distributed amongst the crowd, people clutched them tightly against their mouths and noses, desperate to filter the acrid air and shield themselves from the smoke. The room became a flurry of movement, as individuals jostled and maneuvered, their primary concern being survival. In the midst of adversity, a sense of unity emerged, with strangers helping one another, their actions driven by a shared understanding of the gravity of the situation. Amelia, her mind focused on the well-being of those around her, ensured that everyone received a piece of cloth, diligently moving through the crowd to offer assistance where needed. Though fear lingered in her own heart, she pushed it aside, embracing a role of strength and leadership in the face of adversity. The minutes stretched on, each one feeling like an eternity, as the smoke continued to fill the room. The air grew thicker. Just then A hand held Amelia on the shoulder and she quickly turn to see who was that and she was surprised to see that it was Travis. Travis.. Though they werent too close Atleast they were friends now! Travis was at the third floor when the Gas exploded and he had managed to run out and took shelter before it st. Travis, disheveled from narrowly escaping death, approached Amelia with urgent information. He ryed the unsettling news about the bulletproof doors and windows that had trapped them inside. Amelia, her eyes scanning the chaotic surroundings, nodded in agreement, understanding why their attempts to open the exits had failed. Travis continued, revealing that the windows were secured with a passcode, likely orchestrated by Knight, a powerful figure who seemed to hold sway over their fate. He further spected that the situation might be connected to Amelias marriage to Alexander, or his own affiliation with Alpha, even though his rtionship with Alexander had be strained. Amelia absorbed Traviss words, her mind racing with possibilities. It dawned on her that Knight and his men might possess the passcode necessary to open the bulletproof doors. Realizing the gravity of their predicament, she proposed a daring n. Knights men must have the passcode. To secure our escape, we need to hack into theirputer system and unlock the doors. Its our only chance to ensure everyones safety, Amelia dered, her voice filled with determination. The crowd of trapped individuals turned to look at one another, a mix of apprehension and hope flickering in their eyes. They understood the risks involved in attempting such a feat, particrly given the dangerous presence of me, an enigmatic figure synonymous with death and destruction. Traviss words hung in the air, and a collective murmur rippled through the group. Whispers of doubt mixed with whispers of bravery as they contemted who among them possessed the necessary skills to hack into the system. However, the apprehension was palpable, as no one was willing to venture towards the perilous realm where me lingered. Amelia, sensing their hesitation, stepped forward. A flicker of determination ignited within her. As she said loudly. Hacking It was a moment where fear and courage intertwined, and she made her decision without hesitation. I will go, Amelia dered, her voice unwavering. I may not be an expert, but I will do whatever it takes to ensure our escape. The room fell silent as the weight of her promation settled upon the gathered crowd. Travis, his eyes filled with gratitude and admiration, nodded in agreement, offering his support to her valiant endeavor. Together, they formted a n. With Traviss guidance, Amelia would navigate the treacherous path to the second floor, where the system controlling the doors was located. Their sess relied on the element of surprise. Ill go with you Amelia, I know some things about hacking and besides, as we all know, two heads is better than one! Travis said as he nod at Amelia and she looked at him calmly. Okay then.. turning to the people there she said Please stay calm as we go up and you guys should try to call people from the outside. Yes that, you guys should be with your mobiles right?? My battery had died down! At the mention of their phones, everyone began to search for their phones. Some had misced theirs in the moment of fear and Grieve. Those that saw theirs took it out but there was no signal in the hall.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Must be because of the sealed Doors and windows, its of no use guys! Just stay put, well try to figure something out! Travis said and gestured for Amelia toe with him. The men there were almost past their fifties so they couldnt offer much help and the women took care of the kids that were about five in numbers. Amelia and Travis walked upstairs with some nkets that were wet. The smoke at the second floor was much more thicker and stinging than the one downstairs. Travis wrapped in the Wet nket as He looked everywhere, some rooms in the second floor was Covered in mes as it was quickly spreading around. The third floor must be so unsightly at the moment. Travis gestured for Amelia to follow him and they both ran to a room almost at the end of the corridor. Travis quickly pushed the door open and they both got into the room. The room was filled with differentputer systems for Tracking and monitoring the columbarium. Amelia quickly sat down to start theputer that was still working and not affected by the mes. The room was still free from smoke as the me hasnt reached that ce yet. Travis helped Amelia log into theputer and sometimes he walk to the door to see where the fire has reached so they can quickly run for their dear lives if the me has reached to their door. Sessfully logged in to this damnputer, let me check the server! Amelias finger quickly danced on the keyboard as she typed away. Atleast her time in the military camp has finally being put to good use. As Alexander said, it wasnt a waste but rather a Favor and good thing. Amelia quickly tried to hack into the other partysputer but it was so difficult. This damn People! Travis muttered from behind Amelia. The hacker must be an expert, he keeps changing passwords and so quickly!! Ameliained as she continued typing and trying to break the password on the doors and windows. Let me try! Travis said and Amelia stood for him to seat, he was a son of a mafia leader so he had also received his own fair share of Training. And hacking was one of the qualities and training. Travis could boost about his talent as his talent wasntcking and he knew a lot aboutpany but for now.. He was already sweating profusely as he tried to break in but the other side is so strong and wont give up so soon. Amelia was so deep in thoughts as she Frowned, they had to quickly break the password else their lives were at stake. Amelia roamed her eyes around for something and just then, she finally saw what she was looking for.. What could save time and stress!! Amelia quickly drew a chair out and Sat opposite a Computer. Travis turn to look at her in confusion as his hand stopped in midair. What are you doing Amy?? Travis had already dropped formalities as he address her by her name and even shorten it as if they were long time acquaintances. Amelia didnt even mind it as she focused on Rebooting the Computer. Lets attack the hacker together, you try to Hack into his ount while I do same, he would focus on one of us and then.. Amelia didnt need toplete it as Travis immediately got the message and started working too. Meanwhile, at thest moment, When Alexander turn to leave The ce, a snarl came from the back. Tsk tsk why such in a hurry to leave, I guess you must have waited for daddy! Im here now, Dear Son. Lets dine in same table Knight said mockingly as he emerged from the Warehouse with lots of Arm men and the red kings Behind him. The Alphas Immediately pointed their Guns at The Red kings too. When Alexander had arrived there few minutes ago, He directly barged into the warehouse but in between, he got a call from Ghost saying Amelia wasnt safe at the columbarium. And he could hear shouts from the background about fire incidents, his brain seem to have stopped working as he immediately turn to leave but Knight just choose toe out that very moment. Alexander turn to looked at him with a snarl After so many years, you still look like an hag with your stic face, Not afraid it might be damaged today?? Alexander didnt want to waste words with him. Hearing the truth that he had performed stic surgery on his face made Knights face reddened in hatred. He didnt like to be told!! Dont worry, Im personally make sure to send you to hell as you will die today!!!Knight said as he pull out his gun to shot.

It was the distinct tter of a small metal object hitting the ground, jolting the weary Hitmen who had gathered there, all over the age of forty. The noise cut through the frenzy, capturing their attention and shattering their focus. As they turned towards the source of the sound, their eyes widened in rm.

The ticking time bombs were there, beeping as the time decreases. Running so fast and mercilessly. The alphas were aware of the bombs their reinforcements hade to put so they quickly ran out of the Pyramid. Amidst the chaos and dwindling numbers, the remaining ten Hitmen found themselves in a state of confusion. Their foes, the Alphas, abruptly changed tactics and began to run out of their hiding spots. Sensing that something was awry, the Hitmen instinctively followed suit, giving chase to their fleeing adversaries. As the Hitmen pursued the Alphas, a voice pierced through themotion. It was Twenty Five, a cunning and strategic member of the opposing force. He bellowed orders to his men, urging them to continue their escape. Run out! Im right behind you all! hemanded, his tone filled with urgency.

Alexander said calmly as he had a yful smile on. Knights eyes constricted as he frowned deeply at Alexander, his mind in turmoil. Everybody retreat calmly! Knight whispered To Grey who was also frowning. George was confused at what Alexander said, What little Lolita was Alexander talking about?? Liam maintained a calm expression as he stood in front of Alexander and Alexander got the message and quickly took a step back and entered the car close by and drove off. Knights eyes followed the car as he made a tight fist. His little Lolita was no other but Mrs Gale. He called her Little Lolita for a reason. Knight quickly retreated along side with Grey. We have to get Mrs Gale out of the house this minute!! Knight said as he walked in along with Grey. But sir.. I thought everything would all be resolved today! The confrontation was all for nothing?? Knight snarled coldly I only entertained him to stale time for my n A to go smoothly! Knight said calmly as he walked in to the room he normally sit. Grey was still not happy though and knight noticed that. You dont have to be so impatient, were doing all these for them! For the brothers we lost and the home we couldnt keep! Knight said and Grey sighed. I trust you master! Ill go as nned Grey said determinedly as he nodded. Meanwhile Alexander drove the car frantically as his eyes warder along the road. Amelia please be safe! Alexander kept muttering like a mantra and a poem, he took out his phone to Call Ghost about the other side. Sir Madam is still in and we cant get in because of the sealed doors and windows and I dont understand whats wrong with the fire fighters, its being an hour now we called them but therere no were to be found! Alexander was already ming himself. He should have leave everything and apany The little Cherry! Its all that Cyruss ideas!! Their Hopes Were Dashed Sir Knight we have to quickly leave the building! We detected bombs around the ce. A subordinate of Knight quickly reported to knight as Knight immediately frowned as he walked out in hurried footsteps. Damn it!! Cant defuse it??!! Knight barked as he hurried out of the warehouse you all are bunch of nonentities and ipetent Imbeciles!! Knight stormed out of the warehouse, a ce he cherished deeply, with Grey following closely behind. His face contorted with anger and frustration as he watched the men inside quickly evacuating the building. The sight only intensified his resentment towards Alexander, who seemed to have once again orchestrated a situation that forced them to abandon their territory. As Knight climbed into the car, his voice was cold and filled with disdain. Alexander has done it again, he spat. He always takes pleasure in making me leave my domain. Its no surprise he left without a second thought. He had already carried out his ns without our knowledge or consent. Greys fists clenched tightly as he recalled the time when Alexander had forced them to flee the country, subjecting them to a life of hardship and struggle. Now, he had seeded in uprooting them from their sanctuary once more. The hatred Grey harbored towards Alexander burned deep within him, unresolved and festering. Knight, still seething with anger, clenched his fist and dialed a number, his voice a venomous mix of rage and desperation. You fools! Have youpleted the task? If you had done it properly, Alexander Ron wouldnt dare to cause trouble for me! Dont even think of returning to the warehouse. Stay where you are. Grey wille to collect all of you! A tremor of fear resonated in the voice on the other end of the line as they replied, Sir, wepleted the task smoothly! Those words began to restore a semnce ofposure within Knight. The thought of Alexander brought to his knees, his face twisted in agony, brought a cold smile to Knights lips. He nodded grimly before abruptly ending the call. His narrowed eyes betrayed his deep contemtion as he descended into his thoughts. Knight sat in silence, his mind a whirlwind of ns and strategies. Revenge was a dish best served cold, and he was determined to make Alexander pay for his i nterference. The weight of his anger settled upon him, fueling his determination to reim what was rightfully his. He knew he couldnt let Alexanders actions go unanswered; it would only embolden his rival further. Grey, sitting next to Knight, could feel the intensity emanating from hispanion. The bond between them ran deep, forged through countless trials and tribtions. Grey shared Knights burning desire for retribution. Alexander had disrupted their lives once too often, and now it was time to strike back. As the car sped along the empty streets, scene described above captures Knights frustration with Alexanders actions and his determination to retaliate. The interaction between Knight and Grey highlights their shared resentment towards Alexander, as well as theirmitment to resolving the situation. The calm voice on the other end of the call suggests that the n to deal with Alexander has been executed sessfully, instilling a renewed sense of confidence in Knight. Amelia and Travis were fully focused on their mission of breaking into the other partys system. The tension in the room was palpable as they worked diligently to bypass the security measures. Meanwhile, on the other side of the cyber battle, the hacker responsible for defending the system cursed under his breath, frustration evident in his voice. This ount is such a pain in the ass! His eyes darted across theputer screen as he continued typing, his fingers moving with speed and precision. In a burst of anger, he mmed his hand down on the keyboard, expressing his annoyance. Taking a moment topose himself, the hacker took a sip of his fruit juice, his expression bing colder as he studied the screen before him. Lets see how youre gonna break through this new passcode! he dered confidently. A chillingugh escaped his lips, echoing through the otherwise silent room illuminated by dim red lights.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. The setting itself was modest-a humble apartment that resembled a small studio. His belongings were scattered haphazardly across the room, a testament to the hackers solitary lifestyle. Wearing oversized sses, he leaned in closer to theputer, eager to monitor any progress or potential threats. Suddenly, his mood shifted dramatically. With a frustrated growl, he threw his munchies aside and leaned even closer to the screen, his eyes scanning the changing data. Shit! Shit! Shit!!! he eximed, his voice growing louder with each utterance. The hackers screen began to flicker, the image turning hazy before ultimately going nk. Panic surged through him as he realized the severity of the situation. Im so done for! he eximed, his voice trembling with fear. The thought of facing the wrath of Knight Cyrus, a formidable figure in their underground world, sent shivers down his spine. Realizing that time was of the essence, the hacker hurriedly began packing up his belongings. He moved swiftly, cramming hisputer and other equipment into a bag, not daring to waste a single second. The fear of the consequences that awaited him if he failed to defend the system weighed heavily on his mind, urging him to act with urgency. Amelia let out a sigh of relief, a sense of aplishment washing over her as she rose from the chair. Finally! she eximed, a mix of satisfaction and exhration evident in her voice. She walked over to Travis, who gave her a thumbs-up, acknowledging their sessful coboration. The two of them shook hands, sharing a moment of camaraderie. Travis grinned yfully, breaking the tension in the room. It was nice working alongside you! he remarked, his tone lighthearted. Amelia chuckled in response, appreciating the positive energy he brought to the situation. However, their moment of celebration was abruptly interrupted when Amelia suddenly felt a tickle in her nose, followed by a cough. A wave of realization washed over her as she remembered the dire circumstances they were in. The fire had spread, and smoke had begun to fill the room. Both Travis and Amelia swiftly sprang into action, their survival instincts kicking in. They raced towards the door, their hearts pounding in their chests. But as they reached the entrance, their hopes were dashed. The doorway was engulfed in mes, blocking their path to safety.. Raging Inferno The scorching heat radiating from the fire caused beads of sweat to form on their skin, and the intense heat threatened to singe their hair. Travis, his voice strained with frustration, grabbed at his own hair in exasperation. Argh! Such terrible luck! he muttered, his words a mix of irritation and resignation. The gravity of the situation sank in as they realized the severity of their predicament. They were trapped, with no clear way out. The crackling of the mes and the suffocating smoke filled the air around them, making it difficult to breathe. Time seemed to stretch on, each passing moment carrying more weight as they desperately sought an escape route. Amelias mind raced, searching for a solution amidst the chaos. She quickly assessed their surroundings, looking for any potential means of escape. But the surrounding area offered no respite, with mes licking at every possible exit. With a deep breath, Amelia tried to steady herself, refusing to sumb to panic. Travis, we need to find another way out, she said firmly, her voice carrying a note of determination. We cant give up now. Travis nodded, his eyes reflecting both fear and resolve. Youre right, he responded, his voice filled with determination. We have to keep searching, there has to be another way. What about our nkets from earlier?? Amelia suddenly ask. Travis looked around and saw that it was on a table close by so he went to get it. He gave Amelia her own and she dly epted it Amelia, feeling a sense of urgency, quickly wrapped herself in the duvet she had grabbed earlier. Although it had been wet from the water they had used tobat the mes, it had now dried and was not as damp as before. Travis followed suit, covering himself in a duvet as well. As they approached the door, a glimmer of hope emerged. There was a small area near the entrance that seemed to be rtively free from the encroaching mes. Their eyes met, and without exchanging a word, they nodded in silent agreement. This was their chance. Travis took a deep breath, his chest expanding as he gathered his strength. Amelia tightened her grip on her resolve, her determination shining in her eyes. With every passing moment, they knew that any dy could mean the copse of the burning wooden structure and, subsequently, their demise. Amelia couldnt help but feel a wave of fear washing over her. It was a raw, primal fear for her own life. She didnt want to die like this, the thought of her skin being burned by the scorching mes was already unbearable, let alone the prospect of her entire body suffering the same fate. The fear consumed her, gripping her heart tightly. But amidst her terror, another thought pierced her mind-the thought of her husband, Alexander. Earlier, they had shared a heartfelt conversation, and the memory of their words echoed in her mind. The idea of leaving him behind, of not being there for him anymore, sent a sharp pang through her heart. Unbeknownst to her, a single tear escaped her eye, tracing a path down her cheek. Amelia wiped the tear away quickly, unwilling to let her emotions distract her from the task at hand. She knew she had to focus, to fight for her survival, and for her husband. Pushing her fears aside, she locked her gaze onto the small opening near the door, her mind racing to find a solution. Travis, sensing Amelias distress, ced a supportive hand on her shoulder. His touch provided a momentary sense offort, reminding her that she was not alone in this harrowing ordeal. With renewed determination, she met his gaze, her eyes filled with a mix of determination and gratitude. Lets go, Travis said, his voice steady and resolute. We can make it through that opening. We have to believe. Amelia nodded, her voice filled with a quiet determination. Youre right. We have to keep fighting. We cant give up yet! Amelia and Travis sprinted through the fiery chaos, their desperate escape hampered by the searing heat that engulfed them. The mes raged around them, threatening to consume everything in their path. The intensity of the inferno was unbearable, causing Amelia to feel as if her skin was about to peel off. As they ran, Traviss eyebrows were already reddened by the intense heat. Beads of sweat streamed down his face, his expression a mix of determination and pain. Amelia, on the other hand, was overwhelmed by abination of physical and emotional exhaustion. The stress and grief she had experienced, coupled with the intense heat, had taken a toll on her. Tears that had previously fallen when she witnessed her friends lifeless body being consumed by the mes had left her with a pounding headache. Dizziness washed over her, threatening to send her copsing to the ground. Amelias body began to feel heavy, her legs growing weaker with every step. She struggled to maintain the pace set by Travis, her breath bingbored. Despite her best efforts, she couldnt keep up any longer, her stamina waning.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Just as Amelias strength was about to give out, a small, desperate voice pierced through the raging inferno. It was the voice of a child, crying out for help from a room nearby. Mommy! Somebody help me in here! Im trapped! the agonizing cry reached Amelias ears, tugging at her heartstrings. The desperate plea filled the air, an anguished plea for someone toe to the childs aid. Amelias heart pounded in her chest as she came to a sudden halt. The cries of the child resonated within her, stirring a deep sense ofpassion and responsibility. She couldnt just ignore the plea, leave the child stranded in danger. Anybody there? Please Mommy! the childs voice continued, growing more desperate with each word. The sense of urgency in his cries tore at Amelias soul, overpowering her own fears and exhaustion. Without a moments hesitation, Amelia made a split-second decision. She turned around, retracing her steps back toward the room they had just fled. As she sprinted back, her mind raced, her determination overriding any consideration for her own safety. Travis, momentarily stunned by Amelias sudden change of direction, watched as she disappeared back into the mes. Frustration and disbelief etched across his face, he muttered to himself, This little Cant she just mind her business??!! Maybach Alexander raced along in the main road heading to the columbarium, his head fuzzy. His head banging due to an unexpected Slitting Headache. His mind was in disarray as he mmed on the elerator. His only concern at the moment was Amelia. How she was?? Was she okay?? Nothing should just happen to her! Nothing!! Arghhh Damn it. bastard! Alexander gritted his teeth as he felt the urge to Tear someone apart that he gripped the steering wheel so tightly. His mood dampened as he continue driving. I-I shouldnt have let her go.. I shouldnt Alexander began to soliloquize as he felt that tight feeling in his chest. He was ming himself for all the things that Amelia must be passing through right now. Even if His wife was a fiercedy with no hints of fear in her personality but he knew her well. Even if she doesnt show it, She must be so scared right now. She must be grieving within Herself, she might.. Shit, Screw you Knight..! Screw you, you bastardized human! Alexander cursed even more as he thought of how he couldnt be by Amelias side right now. Thinking that if he had followed Amelia to the columbarium, Nothing of this such could have urred. As if blood was thicker than water, his phone rang and he frowned as he was in the road but there was a traffic congestion along the way. It seems a Fire fighter vehicle got spoilt in the road and the van had to be Carried away by a towing van. So the road was just too parked as no car was moving. Alexander zed at his phone and saw that it was a call from Maverick. After thest episode at his house when his father hade to advise him to turn a new leaf to Amelia. He hadnt heard from them again. It was as if his father was intentionally giving him some space as he didnt contact him since then. Hey Alexander tried to sound fine as his eyes roamed around the road if it was cleared but it seems like nothing was happening. Maverick youthful voice came from the other end Hello Elder brother! Dad had insisted I call you so. Maverick passed the phone to Lorraine Ron who took the phone and ced it on his ear. He had told Maverick to Call Alexander instead because he didnt know if Alexander would answer the phone if he called. Alexander grabbed his other phone on the dashboard and his fingers danced on the screen as he was sending a message. Alexander a muscr voice came from the other side And Alexander cleared his throat. He couldnt be weak this time. Dad.. Alexander said but his eyes on the other phone as he sent a message to George. {George have Gary check the mission Board in the Square Silencer and immediately give me feedback who had sent those Assassins after my wife!} Alexander hardened his heart, even if Mr Moon was like a god father to him, he was already so provoked. He had overlooked Ashs mistake a lot of times because of the respect he had for her father but it just so happened that Ash might be In Knights side! That was his hutch and he had to rify his doubt. But a part of him wished Ash wasnt such a fool to do that and it was just a hunch. If it was so that Ash truly connived with Knight to harm his wife?? He wasnt gonna stay low! They really messed with the wrong person this time. Amelia was of a high position in his life, she was his wife! His Rip! His soulmate! His lover! His other self in another body! His Secret Crush! A woman he hadnt had the chance to profess his feeling and make the rtionship between them, Real. If Ash was truly involved.. Then the rest would be history for he could kill who goes in and out! Alexander I heard what happened from Sly! I already sent some of my men after Knight Cyrus so you just focus on Amelia thats all I have to say to you! Lorraine said calmly. He knew this was a test to Alexander so he wanted to see how he would handle it. . Thank you dad-And about the other day-Im sorry! Alexander decided to make things clear. Lorraine sighed from the other end and Mrs Ron looked at Lorraine as her eyes glittered. She wasnt surprised at all these, she had also faced these kind of things Amelia was facing. Hers was even worst! Galena, Mrs Ron suddenly felt pity for Amelia who hadnt bargained for such life!This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. She didnt have the choice to choose if to marry her son or not! Alexander started the car when the traffic finally cleared off, He ended the when his father had given him some words of encouragement and had helped him with some stuffs. Alexander drove towards the columbarium but it seems it was so far for some reasons. Maybe it was because he was anxious to get there! When he reached the Bridge, not too far from the Columbarium, There was another traffic jam. The heck! Alexanders patience had already drained as he opened the car door and walked out. Anger evident in his face as he walked towards a motorcyclist. Hey get up! Alexander said in a very imposing manner as his face was so serious and fierce. Huh-hey!! The motorcyclist was so scared but wanted to act imposing too as he red at Alexander condescendingly. Alexander was already losing his mind at the moment and his mood seems to dampen at every passing moment. Wondering what could be happening at Amelias end. Throwing his Maybach Car key to the Motorcyclist, impatiently, he said with a very tight re. Now get out! The motorcyclist didnt waste any time so Alexander wont change his mind. Thank-thank you sir! The motorcyclist happily gave way for Alexander to climb into the motorcycle. Alexander immediately stepped on the gas and drove along the sidewalk of the bridge. The motorcyclist was stunned as he gazed at his new Maybach without Working so hard for it. Meanwhile at the columbarium, Amelia pushed the door opened and she quickly stepped into the room that was covered in Smoke. Travis held her shoulder What are you doing Amelia?? Amelia shrugged his hand off her shoulder Didnt know you were this blind to not see what Im doing!! Collapsed Building Travis almost scolded Amelia, he grabbed his hair as he was about to lecture Amelia but she had already darted into the room so quickly. Amelia! We have to leave here ASAP!! Travis said and walked into the room and just then a bang sound echoed. Where they were standing earlier, A wood on fire had fallen down from the ceiling top. Travis was stunned as he creaked his neck to the side. That could have being ontop of his head, right?? Beautiful Miss! Please Im over here! Help me! The boy cried out from behind the desk as he ran towards Amelia who immediately crouched down close to Him. Hey boy! Calm down for a while, we dont have time, we have to get you to your parents! Know your address?? Phone number of your parents or guardians? And who brought you here??! Amelia interrogated the child as she looked at the four years old boy. The child was confused as he kept sniffing in I dont know my moms number but she was the one who brought me here!! She is a worker in the columbarium and my dad just passed away so she takes me to the columbarium every day, I cant find her now! The boy started crying again as snot filled his nose. Amelia frown her face abit when seeing the snot. Could this boy be a little bit manly?? He looks so frail! Travis got close to them I cant hear any sounds from the down floor, it seems the people are out already! Stupid and ungrateful people ! Amelia showed a bitter smile, what was good about human?? Self centered! And greedy! She had helped them because she wanted to clear her conscience and not to impress them! And bad news! The fire is about to prate into the room, the door. Travis showed a grave expression as he looked towards the door and Amelias eyes trailed along and saw that the door was already changing colors. It was a wooden door and due to the fire, it had turn a bit bright dark red. Seeing that all hopes were lost now, they were all caged in this room with no where to go! The child was already crying and Amelia stood up from her crunching position and Travis was already making calls. Fortunately there was signal in the room and Amelia couldnt listen to what he was saying as she ran along the room and saw some pieces of clothes which she handed to the child so he wont suffocate. Seeing people flee the Columbarium, Ghost felt a glimmer of hope and hurried towards the entrance. Many individuals who had been trapped inside earlier were crying as they rushed out, embraced by their loved ones. Ghost noticed that the firefighters hadnt arrived yet, which seemed suspicious, but he didnt dwell on it. He focused on reaching the entrance, only to be stopped by police officers who had sealed off the area. A police officer sternly said, Sir, you cant go in! Ghosts anger red, and he red at the officer. He quickly surveyed the surroundings before leaning in close to the police officer and whispered, Im sure you wouldnt want to go against the order of Alexander Ron. Trust me! The police officer was taken aback by the mention of Alexander Ron and immediately granted Ghost permission to pass through. However, Ghosts dismay grew as he saw that the hall was now engulfed in mes, with no essible passage. Frustration welled up inside him, and he clenched his fist tightly. The fire is too intense, and there are a lot of gases on the second floor. They use them to burn bodies! a man shouted to the crowd. The man was a worker from the Columbarium who had also been trapped inside earlier. Earlier, everyone had been startled when they heard a clicking sound, and the door had to be forced open. The couple from earlier? The youngdy and her husband! a woman shouted, causing the police officers to attempt to restore order and calm the panicked crowd. Yes! Thedy that had helped to open the door! Onedy shouted. A woman ran like a mad woman into the crowd and headed towards the police officers Whats going on ?? Wheres my boy?? My son?? Have you guys saved him?? My little boy!! The woman was acting like a lunatic when she saw the building aze. This was the building she left her son in. She had kept her small boy in her office to go buy so Candles to stock in store room for those who wanted to burn and put candles in their loved ones Grave. She couldnt take him everywhere so she had left him when he was asleep so she quickly run along but now She was met with another episodes. The ce was filled with reporters who wanted to get thetest updates on the matter. They began to interview some of the people who were stuck in the hall earlier and what their experiences was like and who had saved them. These police men are so useless! They tell us to go back so the building wont copse on us but what about our saviors that are inside?? We should just let them die there?? A man was so angry as he shouted at the reporter who was suddenly feeling the urge that the man might pounce on her few minutester. So she quickly scurried away with her colleagues to go interview some other People. The police men tried to calm the woman madam we cant do anything now! The ce is engulfed with fire! We just have to wait for the fire fighters! No! My son is there! this is ridiculous! The woman made her way there as she was looked so crazy. Her hair tattered as she ran there but was held back the police officers.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. No!!!! Let go off me!! Let Me go!!The woman had to be held tightly by the female officers. The fire fighters arrived there at that moment and everybody began to whisper andining bitterly. Ghost was so confused at the moment, he really let his master down and he was ready for any punishment bestowed on him. The FBI officers were all so serious when the FBI chairman shouted at the people move backwards immediately! Everyone get back! The building is about to copse! Everybody began to run and Ghost felt Lost at the moment that a man had to drag him back. At that very moment, a motorcycle drove in to the vicinity but had to stop before getting close to the building. Alexander quickly threw the bike on the ground and ran towards Ghost, ghost was startled to see Don X. Alexander immediately grabbed his shirt with ring nostril tell me Amelia is out already! Ghost dropped his head down and Alex immediately pushed him away with a Shit! His response was enough for Alexander, he quickly made his way to the Building when suddenly a very loud and earth shattering sound erupted. The building had Copsed! Far From X It was as if a light bulb went off in Alexanders head as he looked straight. His mind had turn into a ce that was in disarray, his heart pounding so hard against his rib cage. His eyes serene, his legs rooted to the ground as he couldnt believe what just happened. The building had just copsed! With Amelia still inside!! As if a ss got broken, His sturdy legs ran towards the Building as his eyes constricted. Fear.. Yes that was the emotion he was feeling right now! So scared to face reality, he just wished this was all a nightmare that was taking too long for him toe out of! Ghosts face was something else when he saw Alexander running towards the copsed building. Alexanders face was devoid of any emotions as his mind was swirling in a sea of panic. The FBI officers tried to hold him back but that deadly look he gave them That murdering gaze that sends daggers to the FBI officers was so scary and self depressing that the female officers felt like passing out. Sir-sir you cant go-go-go in the Sentence from an FBI officer came like a question instead of an order. Alexander turn to look at the FBI, as fast as lightening he gripped him on the neck so with feisty eyes, the FBI officer was stunned as he held onto Alexanders hand so he could get some air to breath. The other FBI officers forgot to respond for a while as they stood there like robots. Alexanders aura was so imposing that people forget what to do!! Too much insolence! You all are ipetent fools. Alexanders eyes were blood shot. He was looking for where to vent all his anger, frustrations, Agony, pain and hatred! And this fool just happened to cross him. Youre so dead! Alexander didnt roar at him nor shout but said it so calmly, coldly with a small voice that send shiver down to ones spine and making their inner being fly out from the body.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. The FBI officer who had provoked Alexander, his face was so white due to paleness and difficulty in breathing Let-let go-let. go!! He struggled to free his neck from Alexanders grip but his strength paled inparison to Alexanders. Lots of men wearing ck Suit and torsos, with a very big A imprinted on their chest area of their suits ran in. Some were wearing Uniforms. They all immediately covered the area and they rushed towards the copsed building. Nobody dared toe near Alexander whose eyes were bloodshot and fierce. George had ran pass Alexander without even knowing, he had called some backups to the ce to save his dear sister inw. The officers at the ce were talking amongst themselves as they were contemting. You go! No you go meet him, youre the senior officer here then go tell him! A female officer said, she hadnt recovered from the fright Alexander gave them earlier. Their head officer at the office had called them to leave the scene quickly. The police officers, including the apparent head officer, bowed their heads as they approached Alexander. His eyes were filled with venomous rage as he tightened his grip around the head officers neck. It seemed that the head officer had personally called them earlier to inquire if they had offended Alexander Ron, and now they were facing the consequences. Nobody knew that it was Liam who had called the office that the FBI officers were about to offend Alexander Ron. As Alexanders anger escted, the tension in the environment grew palpable. The FBI officer, sensing the dangerous situation, kept a safe distance from Alexander. He began to speak, his voice trembling with fear, Sir, we are all sincerely sorry on his behalf please Before the FBI officer could finish his sentence, Alexander flicked the officer he was choking, causing him to crash to the ground. The officer coughed violently, his face turning pale with distress. Witnessing their colleague in distress, the other FBI officers swiftly rushed to his aid. The FBI officer that was choked Was taken to rx in their vehicle while some stayed behind but maintained a good distance from Alexander Ron. For them, Alexander Ron was like their nemesis! Alexander stood there as his eyes scanned the ce. He was suddenly weak all over as he watched his men bring out some corpses from the copsed building. When he had ran towards the building earlier, he thought he could stand it but now he knew better. If something should happen to Amelia, he couldnt stand it!! He couldnt bear to see her in a lifeless position!! His eyes welled up but he tried to suck in deep breath but his chest tightened. His head was facing the ground, his hands made into tight fist at the side. It was as if time stopped, A lonely figure who looked so disheveled and disheartened was standing there with the crowds far from him. His wet hair stuck to his forehead but he still had that beautiful and alluring silhouette. Devilish and sinful.! The very one that captivated Amelia! Alexanders lip was made into a thin line as he stood there. his mind racing to different directions. Once again!! He also failed in this whole thing called Love! This was much more worst! He waste! He wasnt quick to profess his feelings to her!! She wasnt here to love him back! He messed up. Blood strolled down from his palm as his fingers dug into his palm with his face so tight. George looked at Liam who had a calm and yet Expressionless face. George sighed as he looked at their friend not too far away! Alex had being standing there for what seems like hours now without the intention of moving! Ghost had his head down as he walked towards the close Allies of his boss X. Phoenix didnt take a look at him as he said coldly to Ghost if you still want to live, then go and hide your head from X, else you might be served as Breakfast to his white panther dog! Ghost didnt need to be told that for he knew his days were already numbered! George sighed as he still felt a little bit of remorse for Ghost! Ill take you somewhere to stay for the mean time! George left with Ghost behind him, Phoenix still standing there with narrowed eyes. Eyes so calctive! Owner Of The Black Market Few hours Later. Crash! A vase was thrown to the wall as it smash on the ground, The room was dimmed with only the windows opened. The tables scattered on the ground. The room was aware of the mood! Gloomy! Alexander was sitting on the ground close to the window, bottles of Strong Alcohols were on the ground. His hair disheveled and Scattered, his shirts buttons were undone as one of his legs were bent and the other straight on the ground. His head bowed, facing the ground, looking lifeless on the ground. He looked at the boxes of cigarettes on the ground and his eyes constricted. Amelia had warned him to stay away from cigarettes but now. She was no more! He could still remember seeing that corpse that was wearing the exact same ck dress that Amelia had worn that morning! It was a horrible sight as her skin was swollen and covered in blood. Alexander took a cigarette from his cigarette box and ced it in his lip.. He grabbed the lighter to lit the cigarette before dragging from it. A smoke Ring formed in the dark room, a slow music ying from the background to match the depressing and emotional atmosphere. Alexander rest his head on the wall, couldnt say a word as he just sipped from the alcohol, directly from the bottle and he dragged from the cigarette again. He shouldnt be like this, Even after living the Columbarium with Phoenix and reached home, he didnt cry or feel broken. Not until he got to the door of their bedroom. The room they both shared, The room they created memories. Hot tears slowly rolled down from Alexanders eyes as his threw the bottle of alcohol from his hand. He kept sniffing in as he blinked his hot tears. Damn! Damn! Damn!! Alexander kept muttering as his throat burn. His heart was filled with vengeance. He was gonna kill that bloody Knight, it was enough already! Knight had sessfully taken a part of him. Alexanders eyes that was wet roamed around the room as his mind wandered. His eyes rested on the door to their walk-in closet and he remembered when Amelia had stuck her head out from behind the door and he was sitting on the bed with a pleased smile. It was when she was surprised to see her closet filled with clothes. Alexander grabbed the cigarette box and squeezed it tightly in his hand that it could not be straight again. His eyesnd on their bed! Her voice rang in his head when she was squirming under him and he was pressing her down on the bed. What-Alex what are you doing?! Her small and inaudible voice pass by in his head. And the memories of her blushing face suddenly filled his vision, Her blushing face when he had unhooked her bra to help clean her wound. Memories kept flooding in How she had jumped on him when he bought her GP heels. When her towel fell to the ground and she was naked in front of him, that embarrassed expression on her face made himugh so hard that day. Times she chose his dog over him and she still had the cheek to ask him why his mood was sour. Her pained expression when she was shot at the cemetery. Her inquisitiveness and those res she usually throw at him whenever he mocked her. Her soft skin that was silky in his palm when he had held her waist at the elevator. And her hot lips when she dragged him close to herself and kissed him hard. You have to promise me Alex. you have to be safe, I want you back.. no I need you back Alex! I believe you my husband! Those were her words, Her calm and serene voice telling him to be safe but she actually broke her promise, they had promised each other to be safe and they will have a long talk in the evening. Now she was not home! Not in his life! They wouldnt be able to have the talk nor can he be able to cuddle with her that night. He missed everything now. His phone screen shed as a message came in. His eyes devoid of all emotions slowly looked down to the phone screen and an earthquake seem to have happened in his mind when his eyes caught the wallpaper on his phone. That morning When he had woken up with Amelia sleeping on his chest and he took a picture of them in that position. Alexander made a tight fist as his jaw clenched. He nevertheless grabbed his phone to see the message well enough. {Sir, we just checked! The green level assassins were hired by Ady of same silhouette as Mrs Moon and thedy had paid them three million and her name in the mission list is AM} from Gary. Alexanders eyes narrowed slightly, it was a rule that none of the assassins identity should be exposed and same as the Clients. So the clients had to wear masks and write down any names of their choices. And the name in the mission list was AM, he wasnt a dummy! It wasnt Amelia but rather the shorter version of Ash Moon, AM. AM.. A cold glint pass by Alexanders eyes, even if the autopsy result hadnte out yet. But before then, He was gonna wipe out those that hurt Amelia even if it was just a strand of her hair.. The person was going down. Alexander slowly got up from the ground and walked sluggishly towards the bathroom and washed his face. His phone rang out and it was his Mother calling. To cut story short, it was a very heart warming and words of wisdom moment. You just have to wait for the autopsy results, I dont think Amelia is dead yet I mean, shes a fighter, you know her personality well Alex! Alexander truly wanted to believe in that so much, infact his mind was betting on that. He didnt want to believe she was gone already! She had suffered too much! You dont have to worry son, your dad had his men track down Knight Cyrus, just take care of your health, we couldnt move down to Europe because your father went against that idea, So annoying! Galenained from the other side, she believed her husband was too strict on their son. Alexander didnt say much before ending the call. His eyes shed as his mind went back to AM again. That name was really amusing, if Ash had known that he was the owner of the ck market, she would have probably used something far from A and M.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. His lips twitched as he called Phoenix who was also in the house. Phoenix was sitting in the living room when his phone rang and it was Alexander. He knew Alex already knows he would be sleeping over. Finally gathered your thoughts?? Then speak! Ash Moon Killing Spree Liam held his phone tightly, feeling the weight of the situation as he scanned the familiar surroundings of the living room. He was seated on a plush chair, the leather cool against his skin, as he spoke to Alexander over the phone. The room was adorned with elegant furniture, tasteful artwork, and shelves filled with books that reflected Alexanders refined taste. I understand , Liam said, his voice low and determined. But how do you want it to be handled? As he spoke, Mrs. Gale, the elderly housekeeper, walked past the living room. Her eyes briefly met Liams, but she quickly averted her gaze and continued on her way, her steps slow and deliberate. There was something about her reaction that made Liam pause for a moment, a flicker of suspicion crossing his mind. His attention returned to the conversation at hand. About the little Lolita you talked about. What should we do with her? Liam asked calmly, trying to keep his emotions in check. Unbeknownst to Liam, Alexander had already made up his mind not to spare anyone involved in the recent events. While he was not aware of Mrs. Gales specific role, he had harbored suspicions about her for quite some time. Even before the incident at the cemetery took ce, Alexander had noticed her odd behavior, her moments of lingering in the shadows, and her unwavering loyalty to their worst enemy, Knight. On the other end of the line, Alexanders voice carried a cold and calcted tone. Come over to my study upstairs, he instructed, his words devoid of any warmth or hesitation. Liam ended the call and nced towards the direction Mrs. Gale had walked. Something about her reaction had piqued his curiosity. He stood up from the chair, his tall frame towering over the room, and slid both hands into his pockets. With a confident yet purposeful stride, he made his way towards the hallway, heading upstairs towards the study where Alexander awaited.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Meanwhile, Mrs Gale cautiously emerged from the corner where she had been observing the conversation. Her eyes narrowed with fear, lines etching deep into her weathered face. The weight of her involvement in the intricate web of deceit and betrayal was beginning to take its toll on her. She had been part of Knights schemes for years, executing his orders without question. But now, as the situation escted and the stakes grew higher, doubts began to gnaw at her. Knight, her partner in crime, hadnt contacted her since morning to discuss Their next move. And now, it seemed that Alexander was aware of the little Lolitas existence. Mrs. Gale felt a sense of impending doom. She was terrified for her life, wondering why Alexander hadnt taken action against her yet. The uncertainty only heightened her fear, leaving her in a state of despair. As Alexander sat in the dimly lit study, his gaze fixed on the darkened window. The room exuded an atmosphere of depression and coldness, mirroring the turmoil within him. He tried desperately to divert his thoughts from the gnawing pain that consumed him, but it proved to be an impossible task. The incident from earlier continued to haunt his mind, refusing to be silenced. His eyes, bloodshot and weary, welled up with tears once again. He clenched the handle of the chair tightly, his knuckles turning white with the pressure. The pain and guilt within him tightened his chest, making it difficult to breathe. The image of her face shed before his eyes-Amelia, who had crosshairs of their twisted world. The weight of his actions weighed heavily on his conscience, and he couldnt escape the overwhelming remorse that washed over him. If he had known he would love Ameliater on, he would have taken his fathers advise a long time ago, He had always overlooked things a lot even when Amelia knew about it, himself was also aware but he always choose to turn a blind eye to these things and now it had bitten him so hard now. Alexander found himself questioning everything he had believed in. The room seemed to close in on him, suffocating him with its oppressive atmosphere. The darkness outside intensified, casting long shadows that danced on the walls, as if mocking his anguish. Desperate for a respite from the torment within, Alexander tried to push the memories away. He closed his eyes, attempting to find sce in the darkness behind his eyelids. But even in the depths of his mind, the scenes of that Corpse from the columbarium reyed mercilessly, each one a painful reminder of the choices he had made. Regret wed at his insides, consuming him with its relentless grip. He wished he could turn back time, erase the events that had led to this moment. But there was no going back. The damage had been done, and he had yed a part in Amelias death because he had underestimated Ash moon and Maybe Knight Cyrus. The silence in the room was broken only by the sound of his own ragged breathing. The weight of his guilt pressed down on him, threatening to crush his spirit entirely. It was in this moment of despair that he realized the true cost of his actions-and it cost him his wife. Alexanders hands trembled as he slowly released his grip on the chair. Just then a knock came from the door and Liam walked into the room calmly. Alexander was facing the window with his back to Liam. Phoenix directly sat on the couch close by as he crossed both legs calmly, one hand was spread on the handle of the couch and the other was rxing on hisp. Alexander was silent for a while Ive thought about it! No more underestimating! Phoenix face had no ripple as he carefully listened to Alex before saying That had always being your w Alex, you underestimate people a lot! Alexander sighed Ive learnt my lesson now! Liam sighed deeply before saying dont be this sentimental! Alexander swirled the chair and he was facing Phoenix this time. Im not the autopsy results are not yet out so before then how about we go for a killing spree?? A murderous glint pass by his eyes as his eyes twinkled. A broad smile immediately formed in Alexanders face and Phoenix frowned so deeply. Alexander was slowly going back to his former self.. This was the part he had threw away a long time ago but it seems he wanted to wear it back on again.. He was slowly getting out of control! Bugs Liam smirked coldly You know I never liked that Ash of a girl so handing her over to me, you must want her dead! Alexander narrowed his eyes into a distance The more reason I approached you for that and not Sly, dont give her death.. Make her choose death! Alexander had thought it to every corner, he could handle Mr Moon well. When ites to Torturing, Elliot was a newbie when theres Phoenix. Alexander could do it himself but he had a lot to do now so he had Phoenix take care of things for him. And as for Mrs Gale, AKA little Lolita. Alexander rest his back on the chair She wont be harmed nor would she be allowed out of the house. Because shes gonna y a big role.. Phoenix had already joined everything together and understood Alexanders thought. Alexander stood up from his chair and walked towards the window and looked into the far distance and saw Ash walk out of her house to dump her refuse in the recycling bin outside of her house. A cold look immediately reced Alexanders face, His eyes prating Ash. The nerve for her to still remain this calm and free like a bird.. if only she knows the tornadoing to her! Alexander closed the window and rest his back on the wall close to the window. His figure looked lonely there, Calm.. serene like the ocean at dawn. But also gave a reproaching and Dangerous ray, telling the onlookers to stay far away from his wrath. He looked more like the devil itself. Phoenix gazed at him for a while It seems She was only a naive puppet for Knight, he had escaped from Europe and Ash isnt even aware of the fact that shes now doomed! Phoenix sighed in regret, on behalf of Ash moon Tsk tsk. if Stupid was a person Alexander smirked Not bad if we turn the stupid to a person!All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Phoenix didnt understand that proverb so he raised a brow at him, questioningly. Alexander let out a very cold chuckle that echoed in the room well both Visit the Robertson Family tomorrow and well stay over for lunch! Phoenix inclined his head to the east Those inws are funny creatures! Alexander swept a fierce look at Phoenix who immediately raised both hands in surrender. Theyre not my inws, neither are they her parents, the very day she was sold out of the family, they have severed all ties with her, so they are all strangers. Saying that, Alexander walked towards his table and grabbed a small and sharp dagger from the desk. He looked at Phoenix who showed him a knowing smirk. They understood what each other was implying. Dont know why there seems to be bugs everywhere! With that said, Alexander threw the sharp and small dagger towards the door and it was sent flying. Though it was a small dagger, it carried force and air along with it. It immediately perked to the door, and the sharp edge came out from the other side of the door as it had prated the wooden door and a yelp was heard from the other side of the door. Just as the sound came out, the woman used both hands to cover her mouth and immediately ran out. The side of Mrs Gales ear was bleeding profusely as she ran down the stairs to her room. She had being ear dropping on their conversation but she couldnt pick any thing out because the door was soundproofed. She never knew They would figure out she was at the door. The other small maids saw her and they immediately approached her but she tried to shoo them away. Mrs Gale! What happened to your ear?? Whyre you bleeding?? A small maid called out as she walked towards Mrs Gale in hurried footsteps, totally worried for her. Mrs Gale looked at the stairs and quickly averted her gaze, ready to run for her life but the maids just wouldnt understand as they kept bugging her to tell them what happened that she was bleeding. I mistakenly trip and almost fell that I hit my ear on the door knob, its no big issue Ill go clean it now! She said in one breath as she hurriedly walked away from the puzzled maids. The five maids exchanged nces, asking themselves silent questions. I feel like Mrs Gale hasnt being herself since the day Young madam came home with Sir with an injured arm.. The maids said. Yes thats true, I heard young madam went to the cemetery that day andter came home with sir Ron with an injured arm, it was a bullet wound a maid chimed in as well. I dont think thats the case, Sir was the one who had specifically asked Mrs Gale to go stock the refrigerator with blood supplementary food, So mrs Gale went to the mall to get them, from that day she came back from the mall.. She hadnt being herself! Another maid named, Chattel said with suspicion. The other maids were just looking at Chattel like a dummy and Chattel raised a brow at them all What?? Im just stating a fact. seriously Im not lying! Chattel tried to defend herself but the look she got was somehow confusing. The maids had their head down as they fidgeted and held the helm of their skirts. Chattel became increasingly suspicious of their behavior and just then. She felt the atmosphere deteriorate in few degrees. The hairs on her arms stood erect as she felt a very piercing gaze on her back, she instinctively took a small step back as she inclined her head ever so slowly as she turn to look at the person with that strong look. Just then, chattel eyes met a very cold one that was murderous and fierce as if he wanted to spit out fire through them. Chattel felt cold water pouring on her as she felt drenched. Alexander and Phoenix exchanged zes before they both looked at the maid with narrowed eyes. Her words Her words held meanings. It seems they were some facts they were yet to dig up. Fear!! Ash was pacing around the room as she held her phone nervously, looking at it from time to time. Confused at what was going on! It was supposed to be today, The n Knight had told her was supposed to happen today. Knight had promised her after today, things would change for her own good but nothing seems to be working. Ashs intuition nagged at her, a sense of unease settling deep within her. The fact that Knight hadnt reached out to her indicated that something negative had transpired. Her mind raced, exploring various possibilities and scenarios, desperately trying to unravel the mystery that loomed over her. Fear crept into her thoughts. What if Alexander had discovered their secrets? The idea sent a shiver down her spine. She couldnt afford to wait any longer, her heart pounding in her chest. With trembling fingers, she reached for her phone and dialed Knights number, the anxiety building with each passing second. The phone rang, each ring amplifying her apprehension. Finally, the call connected, and Knights voice, fraught with urgency, echoed through the line. Get straight to the point! he demanded.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Ashs brow furrowed as she gripped the phone tightly, attempting to maintain herposure. And whats that supposed to mean? You didnt call or inform me of what happened! she snapped, her voice tinged with frustration. Knights anger reverberated through the phone, his wordsced with venom. And who are you to me? Why should I report my every movement to you? he retorted sharply. Well red alerts! Better go far away, or else Alexander will being for you soon You were only a puppet I thought I could use, but it seems you were just a fool! The call abruptly ended, leaving Ash stunned and her face drained of color. Knights words had struck her like a dagger to the heart. The realization that she had been nothing more than a pawn in his game sent waves of shock and confusion crashing over her. The mention of Alexanders impending arrival ignited a maelstrom of emotions within her. Fear gripped her, intertwining with anger, sadness, and profound disappointment. She felt like a trapped animal, cornered and defenseless against the storm that was about to unleash upon her. The thought of Alexander, a man she loved so much with every fiber in her, nowing after her sent a chill down her spine. Ashs mind raced, desperately searching for a way out, for a means of escape. She knew she had to act quickly if she wanted to survive the impending storm. Her hands trembled as she reached for her bag, hastily stuffing it with essentials. Panic fueled her movements as she threw a few belongings into the bag, her mind now solely focused on self-preservation. With her heart pounding in her ears, Ashs movements were hurried as she began to pack her things. She ran towards her closet and dragged all her clothes out. She was aware of Alexanders screwed ways of killing, She had seen it all back in America. She was aware of the fact that Alexander doesnt spare anyone he has the mindset of destroying, her father wouldnt be able stop him. She had thought after killing Amelia, everything would be alright. She had thought Alexander would be sad and broken and then she would be his guardian angel and help him heal in every way possible but it seems she was the one who needs healing now. She just wish she could teleport herself back to America at this time. But then, Realization dawned on her that even if she was to run to her fathers house, Alexander would still find her. With her bag packed and essentials gathered, Ash slipped her feet into fluffy slippers and made her way to the living room. Phone in hand, she navigated to her contact list, intending to call her trusted driver. As she walked, she dragged her bag behind her, its weight making her stoop slightly. In her haste, Ashs face hovered close to the ground as she struggled to secure her slippers properly. She tugged at the fabric, ensuring they were snug on her feet. Finally, satisfied, she lifted her gaze and turned her attention to the task of locking the door. With a firm grip on the suitcase, she approached the entrance, determined to secure her home before facing the unknown. But as Ash took a couple of steps toward the living room, a sudden explosion of fireworks seemed to ignite inside her head. The world around her shook, as if an earthquake had erupted beneath her feet. Her heart raced, and a deep sense of dread engulfed her. It felt as though the very ground beneath her was trembling, and her mind conjured images of volcanic eruptions and cataclysmic disasters. Fear and shivers ran down her spine, freezing her in ce. Her eyes widened in disbelief as they settled on the figure sitting calmly on the couch in her living room. Time seemed to stand still as the reality of the situation sank in. The suitcase slipped from Ashs grasp, crashing to the ground with a screeching noise that jolted her senses. But she barely registered the sound. All her attention was focused on the man who had invaded her sanctuary. He sat there, an unwee presence in her once safe space. Her mind raced, desperately trying to make sense of the situation. How had he gotten in? What did he want from her? Fear mingled with anger as she realized that her carefully constructed world was crumbling before her eyes. Frozen in ce, Ash struggled to find her voice. Every part of her being screamed at her to run, to flee from the danger that lurked in her own home. But her legs refused to move, trapping her in a state of paralyzed vulnerability. She stood rooted to the ground, her gaze locked on the intruder, awaiting his next move. The man on the couch remained motionless, a calmness radiating from him that sent chills down her spine. There was something unsettling about his presence, an air of calcted menace that filled the room. Ashs mind raced with possibilities, her thoughts a whirlwind of fear and confusion. Square Silencer Assassin Phoenixs icy gaze settled on the body of the small girl. At first nce, anyone would assume Ash Moon was a saint, a naive girl with a pure heart. Little did they know that her heart was as ck as charred wood, consumed by darkness that had burned for years without respite. Ash stood frozen in ce, her eyes locked with Phoenixs. They had never been close, never exchanged more than a few words. The mere sight of him inside her house sent a shiver of fear coursing through her veins. She couldnt help but wonder if Alexander had sent him, a predator unleashed to hunt her down for what she had done to Amelia. A cold sweat formed in her palms as she attempted to steady herself, to dispel the nervousness that threatened to engulf her. But Phoenixs voice, devoid of emotion, pierced through the silence of the room, sending another wave of shivers down Ashs spine. Your sitting room is not that bad, he uttered calmly, his legs crossed in a casual manner. It was a simple remark, an observation about her surroundings. Yet, for inexplicable reasons, Ash felt as if she were being stripped naked, her vulnerabilities exposed to this intruder. Fear tightened its grip on her, constricting her every breath. She found herself unable to form a coherent response, her voice trapped in her throat. Her mind raced, desperately searching for a way out, for an escape from this grim reality that threatened to consume her. Phoenixs presence alone was suffocating, his calm demeanor a stark contrast to the chaos that ravaged Ashs thoughts. She could sense the danger emanating from him, a palpable aura that warned her of the malevolence lurking beneath hisposed facade. Every fiber of her being screamed at her to run, to flee from this menacing figure who had invaded her sanctuary. But her limbs refused to obey, betraying her in this moment of dire need. She stood there, paralyzed by fear, her wide eyes locked with his piercing gaze. The silence stretched on, the weight of the unspoken words hanging heavily in the air. Ashs mind raced, trying to piece together the puzzle of Phoenixs presence in her home. What did he want from her? Was he here to exact vengeance for her actions? Or did he have another sinister motive? As she stood frozen, the room seemed to close in around her, the walls closing in like a vise. Every creak of the floorboards, every gust of wind outside, seemed her death was already reckoning to her. Phoenixs calm chuckle filled the room, sending an unsettling shiver down Ashs spine. She cleared her throat, attempting to steady her voice, and nervously asked, What What do you want? Fearced her words, making it difficult for her to even take a single step forward. It felt as though she were trying to move an insurmountable mountain. In response to her question, Phoenix slowly uncrossed his legs, his movements deliberate and measured. Time seemed to slow down as his ck leather shoe made contact with the floor, each instance elongated in Ashs perception. His hands disappeared into his pockets, causing his coat to lift slightly, revealing a glimpse of his white sleeves. Nervousness constricted Ashs throat, and she swallowed hard, her anxiety palpable. Every step that Phoenix took toward her felt like a tightening chain around her neck, suffocating her. Instinctively, she took a subconscious step backward, trying to create distance as Phoenix continued to advance. Phoenixs eyes remained calm and serene, yet they held an underlying icy coldness that filled Ash with a sense of reproach. A small smirk danced on his lips as he spoke in a calm tone, his words causing Ash to feel as though she wanted to melt into the wall behind her. What do I want? I think youre mistaken here, Phoenixs voice rang out in the room, a mixture of amusement and menace. The weight of his presence was suffocating, and Ash found it increasingly difficult to maintain eye contact with him. Her gaze drifted downward, unable to meet the intensity of his stare. The back of her shirt clung to her body, drenched in sweat born out of fear. Suddenly, Phoenix took a step back from her, creating a physical distance between them. He continued speaking, his words sending a shockwave through Ashs senses. You should ask What do they want?! Ashs head snapped up, her wide eyes filled with a mixture of shock and fear. The question hung in the air, unanswered yet resonating deep within her. She struggled toprehend the meaning behind Phoenixs words. Who were they? What did they want from her? The floodgates of panic opened within her, and her mind raced to make sense of the impending danger that seemed to encircle her. Her voice trembled as she managed to find some semnce ofposure. Who Who are they? What do they want? Her words faltered, as she made a tight fist. Constantly swearing at Knight who had put her into this mess. Dont know.. ask them yourself!Phoenix said as he turn his back on her. Hisst sentence resonated in her head as she looked up. Ask them yourself ! Ask them yourself!! Ask them yourself!!!!!!!This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Ashs eyes slowly looked past The silhouette of Phoenix and her eyes constricted as she looked at the men stationed close to her window outside and the other men who was standing close to her dining room. She hadnt noticed them until now. They were in all ck. Like the Grim reapers she had heard of in fairytales. They looked scary with ck masks on. This was the first time seeing them. The mask was covering their head and faces, And a big A was imprinted in the masks. Ash could already tell that they were all Alphas! They were all here to get her! But what made her more scared as if her ghost had run out of her was when she saw the few men beside the alphas. They were dressing in a particr way. Silver clothed men and Red clothed men, there was bands on their sleeves and a symbol was there too. They were also wearing masks. Ash wasnt a novice to this particr uniform. She thought she might be hallucinating because of the fright from Phoenix so she closed and opened her eyes again but those words imprinted on their bands was still there. SQAURE SILENCER ASSASSINS I Need Help Wha-what! Ashs eyes roamed around the men before looking at Phoenix. Phoenix was already amused, wondering how Sly could be a friend with such a girl. Well, no surprise! Sly was always open and naive. Always making friends even with bitches.! Surprised?? Well, it wontst long because youll be going somewhere. Phoenix walked towards the men and stood close to the door. Ashs leg felt like a jellyfish as she almost fell to the ground due to fear. She could only utter Where are you guys taking me to??. She couldnt beg. Phoenix was not the type to be begged as it would only harden his heart the more. Phoenix shrugged leisurely as he turn to face the men. He held one in the cor, and helped him to smoothen the cors and he dust off his fingers before turning to face Ash. His eyes cold, all his venom gathering in his eyes as if they wanted to hold a yearly meeting there. He had always felt this girl was not as naive as she looked but didnt bother himself with her. As long as they didnt cross each others path. Anyone who wants to be friends with Knight, was his own enemy too! And it just so happened that the girl he never liked was a traitor and a snake. Phoenix seized Ash up before tinting his lips up To.. Kingdom Come! With that, Phoenix walked out of the sitting room and the men also followed. Ash was the only one left in the room as she just stood there. Just like that?? They left??! Ash ran towards the door at lightening speed and locked the door immediately. Her heart beating ferociously, her chest going up and down. Ash walked towards the window and gazed outside the window and saw that there were no vehicles around. So they truly left! Ash breathed in a sigh of relief as she made her way to her suitcase and bend to carry it when she felt a sharp pain at the back. Blood rushed towards her head as she was in a bending position, everything became blurry as she staggered a bit before falling down, face on the ground. The silver level assassin dropped his hand that he was using to hold the long gun he had used to hit her at the back of her neck. That was one of the qualities of the silver level assassins. The more they trained, the more invincible they be when dealing with people. They can control their presence amongst a crowd of people. Three other silver level assassins came out from the kitchen side and they all looked at each other and then nodded. Suddenly, the door was pushed and a dark figure was standing just outside. Soon another man joined him as they both stared at the unconscious girl on the ground. Alexander smirked coldly Not at all satisfied with the oue! Buckle up NixOwned by N?velDrama.Org. Phoenix shared a look with Alexander I think youre beginning to underestimate me now X, Im not a motherfucker or a dummy in this shit! Alexander didnt say a word and Phoenix gestured for the men to carry Ash to their car close by. Phoenix looked at the quiet Alexander and raised a brow at him What?? Still grieving??.. Alexanders eyes immediately turn cold at that statement, it had happened in the afternoon and now. it was already 8pm, the topic of what happened earlier seems to be a trauma for him now that whenever it is mentioned, his head seems to spin and blood rushes up to his chest as his breath bes shallow. There was this raging fire within him! A thirst for something strong, something he could use to gush down this heat within him. A thirst for Blood! Change of ns.. Were visiting the Robertsons house tonight! I suddenly remember I dont want to have lunch with them I want a midnight snack! Alexander said and walked out but Phoenix followed him along. Its alreadyte Alex. Phoenix said as they both walked towards the car in long strides. Alexander opened the car and sat while Phoenix went to the other side and got into the car too. The very reason were going there! I swear.. they wont rest! Alexander looked out of the window of the car as the driver ignited the car. Phoenix gazed at his friend for a while, he was not the emotional or sentimental type, he didnt know how to console people. Seeing how Ragged, and broken Alexander was earlier, He started to wonder what Amelia did to him for him to be so much addicted to her and when something unfortunate happened to her. he was like a ticking time bomb. But then again, he reasoned that if he was to be Alexs position and he found out that something happened to his wife, Find. He wouldnt know where to start from but Atleast. he said to Alexander with a much calmer voice. You should Atleast rest for tonight, youve had a long day Alex. Try to replenish your energy for the future fight, Remember Knight is still out there with the Venoms, even if we have eliminated Hitmen and Cobras Red Kings and Venom are birds of same feather! Alexander frown deeply Ive wasted a lot of time already, things I should have done a long time but failed to do it as I saw them as irrelevant.. those things came to bite me today!! Phoenix do you understand that, you fool.. Alexanders eyes were bloodshot as if his brain was newly activated as that thirst for blood started again and he made a tight fist as he thought of his wife again!! I lost my Wife Phoenix.. I lost her! I lost the woman I love! I couldnt do anything and guess what. That was the most horrible experience Ive had. Training at the Camp, Tons of war, fighting, bloodbath.. everything, every pain.. Alexanders eyes darken as he looked at Phoenix intently, his voice hurried and hoarseEverything isntpared to this pain.. Seeing the woman I love die without doing anything?? That will always be my sickness which willter cause my death. I dont deserve to live Nix, Theres no meaning to life without My better half! He was so fucked up, He should have eliminated Ash a long time ago and Amelias troubles would have lessen. Alexanders eyes carried lots of emotions. Regrets! Sadness! Hatred! Pain!! I need help Liam Enigmatic Figure Phoenix was short of words as he looked at Alexander. He had the urge to go run a test on Alexander to verify if he was the real Alexander he knew. Hes changed so much!Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Alexander sighed as he faced the window, short of words, he didnt mean to say all those words to Phoenix. He was a mafia! A don! He shouldnt show his emotions! One of the basics in the training camp! Showing emotions, is weakness. And weakness is Death! I wont try to convince you, I wont try to understand you, Just do what makes you at peace! Phoenix said calmly, he knew Alexander more than anyone. Alexander was always the type that seem to know everything, in fact he knew everything. But he was slow to act. That had always being his nature, He always underestimate things and people a lot. Egoistic. That was the right word for him, He feels others are not worth his efforts. So he was hurt now when he realizes his mistake, he was regretting the fact that he didnt destroy these forces when they wereing up. And he was sad because it cost him the love of his life. But once Alexander Is set on doing something. he does it till he was satisfied, until one man goes down and it wouldnt be him. So advising him now was a waste. I know where it hurts.. I will eliminate everything that made Amelia sad tonight! If it so happens that she was the I dont fucking care! Theyre all going down with her! Even if it was a flower that made her frown the least, that flower would be uprooted and crushed ! Phoenix didnt utter any words, An angry man is a dangerous man. Silence reigned In The car for a while before Phoenix said I n to torture that little demoness. what do you n on doingter on?? Alexander rest his head on the chair as he sighed. Phoenix continued I mean to say. what are you going to Do about Mr Moon?? What if he gets to find out about your involvement?? Alex scoffed coldly I fear no man and not even Mr Moon, just leave him be! He wont even be aware when I finish Phoenix didnt argue for he knew what Exactly Alexander could do! He was no bark and no bite! He devours! In a dark and dimmed room, the sound of snoring filled the air as the couples peacefully slept. One of them faced the other side, while the other faced the opposite direction. The room appeared to have recently undergone a refurbishment, with new air conditioning, a stylish headboard, spacious wardrobes, and elegant tables. Even the chairs had been upgraded to match the overall aesthetic. Theyy in bed, seemingly on top of the world, enjoying a restful slumber without a trace of worry or shame. The tranquility of the room was interrupted as the door creaked open, allowing a figure to enter. The figures ck outfit blended seamlessly with the darkness of the room, their silhouette projecting a sense of serenity and calmness. As the figure made their way towards the couple, they chose not to sit down. Instead, the figure casually ced their right leg on the table opposite the couch, bending their back slightly as they rested their arm on their thigh. A roguish smile yed across their lips as their eyes locked onto the sleeping couple. Marion, lost in her dreams, snored softly as she turned to the opposite direction. Mumbling sleepily, she whispered, No Dont Mhm is Bluuu. The figure observed Marions restless state with amusement as if they knew her deepest secrets and fears. The atmosphere in the room shifted, bing charged with an air of mystery and anticipation. Unbeknownst to the peaceful sleepers, this figure was not an ordinary visitor. Luke was sleeping so well that made the veins on the figures forehead shot up. Anger mixed with hatred and as well Shame filled his eyes. Alexander couldnt take it anymore as he took out the file in his coat and a hand gun, pistol. And he immediately shot at the bed the couples were lying on. He shot at the middle but the sound didnte out loud due to the silencer. Luke immediately jolted as he felt the vibration on the bed. Luke immediately shot his eyes open to see the bed and he was stunned to see a hole in the brand new bed he just bought. He was already angry at that as he immediately tapped Marion who mumbled in her sleep: Care to.. Chop. as Smith, Ah Cramp Luke frown as he stared down at his piggy of a wife. Just then, he felt a fierce look on his back and he turn to look front when he immediately jolted in fright. Lukes heart raced as he felt a fierce gaze burning into his back. With trembling hands, he reached out to wake Marion, desperately trying to rouse her from her deep slumber. Marion! Wake up! Theres someone something here, Luke whispered urgently, his voiceced with fear. Marion stirred, slowly awakening from her dream-filled state. Groggily, she opened her eyes and blinked, trying to make sense of her surroundings. As her vision cleared, she saw the panic etched on Lukes face and felt the tension in the room. Whats wrong, Luke? Why are you so scared? Marion asked, her voice filled with concern. Luke struggled to find the right words to convey the terror that had gripped him. He gestured towards the figure looming in front of them, his hand shaking uncontrobly. Look, there, Luke managed to stammer, his voice barely above a whisper. Marions gaze followed Lukes trembling finger, and her eyes widened in shock. Standing at the foot of the bed was a mysterious figure, their presence emanating an eerie aura that sent shivers down their spines. They couldnt see his face clearly because of the dark room. The figure remained silent, the dark silhouette illuminated by the faint glow of the moonlight filtering through the curtains. Fear and confusion filled the room as the couple tried toprehend the situation. The figure seemed to exude an otherworldly presence, as if they didnt belong in the realm of the living. Their features were shrouded in shadows, making it impossible to discern their identity or intentions. Lukes mind raced, his thoughts spiraling in a whirlwind of fear and paranoia. He had never encountered anything like this before, and the unknown was terrifying to him. Marion, though also frightened, took a deep breath, summoning her courage to confront the enigmatic figure. Who who are you? Marions voice quivered, but there was a determined tone behind her words. Sign The Contract Alexander smirked but Marion and Luke couldnt see his expression since the room was still dark. At the thought of that, Luke quickly reach out to themp close by to turn on the light Alexander dropped his leg on the ground and let out a small coldugh that made Lukes hand stopped in mid air. Thatugh was more than enough for him to know the mans intentions. Alexander wasnt scared of being seen, moreover he was the one who personally came by himself. He just preferred it that way.. to give them some fright. Who am I?? I guess you already know. Alexanders cold demeanor sent a chill down Lukes spine as he approached the bed with purposeful strides. His fierce gaze locked onto Luke, intensifying the atmosphere in the room. Marion clutched the duvet tightly against her chest, her eyes darting nervously around the room. She had an inkling of who the figure was based on his voice, and the realization only heightened her unease. Alexander reached the side of the bed, his presence looming over Luke like a dark cloud. He leaned down,ing face to face with Luke, and spoke in a low, calcted tone. Good to see you again, Mr. Robertson, Alexander whispered, his wordsced with an ominous undertone. With a swift movement, Alexander reached for themp on the bedside table and turned it on. The room was instantly bathed in a soft, warm light, dispelling the shadows that had consumed the space. The sudden illumination revealed Alexanders face in all its stark intensity. Lukes eyes widened in sheer terror as he gazed at Alexander up close. The fear gripping him was so overwhelming that he instinctively fell backward,nding on Marions chest for support. Marion, though startled by Lukes sudden movement, pushed his small bald head away from her chest in a mixture of disgust and annoyance, even though he was her husband. Alexander remained unfazed by the couples reaction, his expression stoic and unreadable. He straightened up, his eyes still fixed on Luke, as if studying him intensely. The room fell silent, the tension thickening with every passing second.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Luke mustered up the courage to speak, his voice trembling with fear. How how did you get in? Why are you here? Alexanders lips curled into a subtle, sinister smile. Oh, Mr. Robertson, you know exactly why Im here, he replied cryptically, his voice dripping with a hint of malice. Marions curiosity mingled with her fear as she interjected, her voice quivering. Please, just tell us what you want. We dont understand whats happening. Alexanders gaze shifted momentarily to Marion, his eyes briefly softening before returning to their steely resolve. He seemed to contemte his next move, as if deciding how much information to divulge. You both have something that belongs to me, Alexander stated, his voice carrying an air of authority. Luke and Marion exchanged puzzled nces, their confusion deepening. They had no recollection of anything that could possibly belong to this mysterious figure. Alexander walked towards the small couch and settled himself there as he looked at the couples who were like ants in his eyes. Luke was so scared as he looked at Alexander who was staring intently at them. Marion almost rolled her eyes at her husband who had suddenly turn to a jelly fish due to fright. Cant he be a man for once??! Marion was so irritated by him, having such a fool as a husband was already a disappointment to her. Luke didnt know what his wife was thinking about, all that was running through his mind was that, Alexander must have known that he was part of a n to lure Amelia to the cemetery. Though he had told and convinced himself earlier on that He wasnt doing anything bad but he knew within him that , that Ash girl wasnt simple. He knew by luring Amelia to a serene and dpidated cemetery wasnt simple and it didnt sit quiet well to him. He was aware of the fact that Amelia might be targeted or harmed but he still went along because of the money. He was in dare need of money at that point to pay up his debt to the loan sharks. One thing that Luke hase to realize is that Alexander loves Amelia. And Alex has proven it in countless incidents like the time Alexander had called him to freeze Jolies ount when jolie was causing troubles for Amelia at the mall. And even the time, he had locked Amelia in that dense basement, that worried look on Alexanders face didnt skip his eyes. And for the fact that Alexander wanted Amelia close to himself 24/7, and made her his personal assistant and defends her at every point. there was no evidence needed to be sure of the fact that Alexander truly loves Amelia. Alexander threw the file he brought along in the table opposite him. Lukes eyes fell on the file on the table and he immediately had a bad premonition about this. Marion frowned slightly as she sat there like a moron. Alexander leaned to the side slightly as he sat there leisurely That is a document.. You have no choice but to sign it! Alexander didnt even give them option as he said to them directly, That was the document he was preparing earlier when Phoenix had went to hunt Ash down. Marion could be considered as the head of the house as Luke was just a push over for her, she was even more manly than Luke. And what if we dont sign it?? Marion asked boldly as she wouldnt consent to that. Luke nodded along with her words and Alexander was suddenly amused at the boldness of Marion. His lip slowly tinted up into a smile as the smile widened, his white set of teeth was in disy. But that smile gave one a depressing feeling rather that a rxed one. Marion felt something wasnt right with that smile and just then, the door was pushed open and Jolie was pushed into the room and shended her ass on the ground. She yelp as her face was flushed red, crying bitterly mommy!! Dad do something, help me! Jolie was sitting on the ground with a flushed face, Marion was immediately emotional when she saw her baby girl on the ground with a distrusted face. Sign the contract or her second leg would be broken as well..Came Alexanders cold voice. Second leg???! Marion immediately snapped her head to look at her daughters legs Destroy His Legs What?? Marions eyes constricted as she rushed towards her daughter but was stopped by the burly guy close to Jolie who was still weeping on the ground. Alexander stared at Luke ready to sign the contract?? Or.. Alexander especially stretched out thest part of his words and Marion gave Luke a very cold look that jolted Luke awake and he immediately got up from the bed and went to take the document from the table to read through it. Alexander just sat there with both legs crossed as he waited for Luke to finish it. Lukes face slowly drained of blood as his face became as pale and white as a sheet. Marion noticed that and immediately staggered to meet Luke and snatched the document from him to see the content of the document. Luke was like a ghost as he couldnt believe what he just read. This-this this is absolutely nonsense! Bullshit. Marion forgot etiquette as she cursed at the document at hand. Alexanders smirk deepened as Marion bravely spoke up, her voice clearly irritating him. Without hesitation, hemanded coldly, Shut her up first! Marions eyes narrowed in anger and frustration as she jerked on Lukes shirt, her voice filled with desperation. Do something, you fool! Cant you? Before she could finish her sentence, a resounding pnded forcefully on her smooth cheek. The impact was so intense that she felt her eye on that side close involuntarily. Pain mixed with shock surged through her, leaving her momentarily stunned. Alexanders satisfaction was evident on his face as he turned his attention back to Luke. Marions presence seemed to be an annoyance to him, a mere distraction from the business at hand. So, Mr. Robertson, Alexander began calmly, his tone carrying an air of authority. Sign the documents already. Ill have mywyers bring you the other copy, and the deal will be sealed once and for all! Marion bit her tongue, seething with a mixture of anger and frustration. She had been silenced, her voice rendered useless in the face of Alexanders dominance. The powerlessness she felt in that moment fueled her determination to find a way to turn the tables. Luke, on the other hand, was overwhelmed with shame and anger. He couldnt believe that he was being manipted by a mere child. His pride was wounded, but he knew better than to openly defy Alexander. The consequences would be dire, not only for him but also for Marion. Besides, the presence of the burly men surrounding them made it clear that any resistance would be met with force. Lukes mind raced, searching for a way out of this predicament. He had to find a solution that would protect both himself and Marion and Jolie was not excluded. However, the weight of Alexanders power bore down on him, leaving him feeling trapped and powerless. As Luke contemted his options, Marions eyes met his, silently pleading for him to find a way to free them from this nightmarish situation. With a flicker of determination, Luke nodded almost imperceptibly, conveying his intention to find a solution. Alexander watched their silent exchange, a trace of amusement ying on his lips. He seemed to relish the power he held over them, reveling in their helplessness. To him, they were mere pawns in his game, and he was the puppet master pulling the strings. Taking a step closer to Luke, Alexanders voice dropped to a low, menacing whisper. Remember no strings, else Alexander didnt need toplete his sentence. Luke was so baffled but he nodded nevertheless and said with shaking voiceAlex y-you. Mr. Lukes attempt to address Alexander was immediately cut short by a cold voice that belonged to the assassin apanying him. The assassins tone was filled with disdain as he corrected Luke, saying, Its Mr. Ron. Lukes voice faltered as he tried to regain hisposure. Yes, yes, I understand now. Please pardon me he stammered, nodding repeatedly in affirmation. As the gravity of the situation sank in, Lukes nervousness became even more palpable. He cleared his throat, attempting to steady his trembling voice. Mr. Ron, you know we are inws. You cant possibly do this to the father of your wife The mention of Lukes connection to Amelia, his wife, struck a nerve. The burning rage that had simmered beneath Alexanders cold exterior red up once again. He seethed at the audacity of Luke and the perceived intrusion into his personal life. Alexander firmly believed that he was the only one qualified to utter Amelias name, to hold any connection to her. He resented the fact that others, like Luke, had contributed to her suffering. The mention of her name only served to add more fuel to the already burning fire within him. In a chilling voice, Alexandermanded once more, his wordsced with vindictiveness, Destroy his legs! Lukes eyes widened in shock as he gasped, his face turning pale. The full weight of Alexanders words hit him with a jolt of terror. Whose legs were they referring to? His own? The mere thought sent shivers down his spine. Marion watched in horror as the scene unfolded before her eyes. She knew that Alexander was capable of great cruelty, but she had never imagined that he would stoop so low. Her heart raced, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead as she desperately searched for a way to protect Luke from this unimaginable fate. As the burly men moved closer to Luke, their intentions clear, Marions survival instincts kicked in. She lunged forward, cing herself between Luke and the men, determined to shield him from harm. Her voice trembled with a mixture of fear and defiance as she pleaded, Please, Alexander! Dont do this. We can find another way. Lets talk about it Alexanders gaze hardened as he regarded Marion with a mix of contempt and amusement. Her futile attempts to reason with him only fueled his sadistic enjoyment of the situation. He took a step closer and leaned close to Marion.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. You disgust me Marion. ying the good wife role?? Alexander scoffed loudly Then you should at least exin to Mr Robertson why you choose to sleep with his Butler and pin the pregnancy on Him Supposed Family As Alexander dropped the bombshell, a heavy silence fell over the room. Luke turned to his wife, his face etched with confusion and disbelief. Marion shook her head vehemently, her words stumbling out in a desperate plea. No its all a lie, believe me, Luke. Its not true! Lukes anger surged, unable toprehend why Alexander would lie about such a matter. He barked at Marion, his voice filled with usation and betrayal. You wench! You actually cheated with my butler? Jolie is the butlers child, not mine? Argh! He rubbed his bald head in frustration as he paced around, further inming Alexanders anger. Alexanders mind briefly shed back to the useless butler who had led him to the basement where Amelia was locked away. It was the butler who had been having an affair with Marion. But that was not the purpose of his presence here. He had other intentions in mind, a desire to destroy everything that could be destroyed. Turning his attention back to Luke, Alexander posed a question. His voice held a calcted coldness. Mr. Luke, how do you want to pay her back? Marions head snapped towards Luke, her eyes wide with fear and disbelief. She slowly shook her head, silently pleading with him not to go down this path. Lukes eyes burned with rage, his voice dropping to an icy tone as he dered his decision. Destroy her legs! Alexanders smirk deepened, his satisfaction evident as he gestured for his men to carry out hismand. Marions scream pierced the air as one of the men jerked her up from the ground and slung her over his shoulder. The trio walked out of the room, leaving behind a trail of terror and anguish. Jolie stood frozen in shock, unable to find the words to express her disbelief. She wondered if this was how her life would crumble, shattered in an instant like fragile ss. Her mind grew fuzzy, overwhelmed by the traumatic scene unfolding before her. She copsed to the ground, her broken limb forgotten in the face of this horrifying reality. Luke remained silent, still grappling with the truth he had just discovered. His mind swirled with conflicting emotions, a tempest of anger, confusion, and regret. He had been deceived, betrayed by the woman he thought he knew. The weight of his decision hung heavily upon him, a dark cloud of remorse settling in his heart. Alexander, meanwhile, slowly walked towards his chair and wasfortable. Look over here man! Alexandermanded, anger evident in his lips You have no choice now, since you now owe me one, I helped you avenge against your wife and now youll be at my mercy! Luke was so frustrated Ale-Mr Ron you cant do this to me! But If I transfer everything under my name to Amelias name, Ill be done for! Amelia doesnt need my wealth Luke was totally unaware of the fact that Amelia might be dead already. Alexanders eyes freezed coldly.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. He had vowed that if the autopsy came out and it was proven that it was really Amelias corpse. He would share her properties to orphanage homes. But if it was to be that the autopsy resultes out and states that the corpse wasnt Amelias Hell dig up the matter again and find Amelia even if its to the end of the world, he will find her and hand her everything that belongs to her. You and I know that everything belongs to Mrs Sarah, your dead wife and My wifes mother She was the brain behind everything you have achieved now! Alexander had already investigated everything before hand but didnt say not until now. Luke was so shocked and as well ashamed as he thought of it. Back then, he was living peacefully with his wife, Sarah and their daughter, little Amy. His secretary at the time had seduced him and he fell for it, he thought he loved her and her body since she was more fleshy and had big ass and bosom than Amelias mother who was a bit too slim and skinny. A woman who hadnt given birth and the woman who had put to birth had pr difference, Sarahs body wasnt too appealing to him again but was still so beautiful and pretty but he mated to Marion who was big at that time. Sarah was the mastermind of the business as she was really smart and business minded than himself. He could say Amelia took over her mother. Even with that, he was the CEO while Sarah was just his tool, he was the lord. She was the one who secured all the deals. Sarah died due to the domestic violence at that time, he had hated her and started beating her and sometimes even bring Marion home because Sarah had no one to turn to. She was alone, had no family members (he wasnt aware of that! he wasnt introduced to them by Sarah) He was surprised when Marion said she was pregnant at some point not knowing it was for his butler. And now that Alexander was rubbing it to his face, he hardened his heart to kill that Butler if he sets his eye on him. Dont waste my time Mr Alexander said coldly, totally fed up with the talks. Luke reluctantly moved towards the document and grabbed it from the table. He hesitated for a while as he took the pen Alexander had brought along too. Seeing the reluctance on his face, Alexander said leisurely Well you can choose not to sign it Lukes face immediately lit up as he smiled and was ready to thank Alexander when he heard; The price would be your two limbs, ten fingers, Ill destroy the name of yourpany until it copses and take your life at the end of it all after torturing you day and night! As fast as lightening, Luke immediately scribbled his hands over the book as he wrote his signature very neatly and correct. Seeing that he had gotten what he had seek for Alexander stood up and grabbed the document and a pleasing smile danced on his face. By tomorrow Noon, get set to leave the house with your supposed family and scramAlexanders words were so piercing. That-t-that wouldnt be too possible as to look for a new house in this city is difficult and expensive Alexander walked towards the door and his two other men remaining, was ready to move as well but Alexander stopped close to the door with his back to Luke who was just standing there. Who says itspulsory to live in the city?? Alexander asked as he swept his gaze past Jolie who was unconscious on the ground and Lukes face brighten up again. Was Alexander nning on making them stay at his ce??. Artificial Lake There is the country side! If you go live in the country side and start cultivating cash crops, trust me when I say youll earn cash that should be from Atleast a thousand dors! Alexander spat out and Lukes face sank. Alexander walked out of the room and was out of sight. The other men left along with him. That was when it hit Luke real hard! He was off the social circle! He was no longer a respectable man in the society or in the wealthy societies. He would be looked down upon. He was now alone, no family of his own as the child he believed was his turns out to be the daughter of his butler. He was definitely not going to continue the marriage with Marion after what she had done to him. He suddenly regrets his actions and how he had maltreated Sarah back then.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. He could have being living peacefully with Sarah and Amelia. And avoided the green snake who was his secretary back then, she was too seductive. Luke slumped on the ground as his eyes wandered as he looked at the foolish daughter who was now a cripple as her leg has being disabled. Then he remembered that Marion would be experiencing more worst fate so he stood up sluggishly to go see how she was fairing. And if she was in good health to beat her up. Meanwhile Alexander reached his house and got down from the car. just then, another car came in, just like that, Three other cars drove in and Alexander frowned at that. He wasnt expecting these people. Heyy biggie bro Georges childish voice came from the other car as he got down from the car. Liam followed as well and other Alphas came down from the other three cars. They were so many people in thepound already. Alexander didnt think that his parents woulde because that was how his father was. He helped from the dark but he wouldnte to assist him physically nor would he allow his mother to. His father had trained him that way, to be dependent on himself. Alexander sighed as he already knew that these alphas werent called over by Liam but instead Alex.. howre you.. Ouch! George screamed out when Alexander hit the back of his head. Stupid why did you call so many people over?? Alexander asked and Liam just walked past them with hisptop on his hand and a earphone on his ear. He was busy with hisputer as he was still working too. It was almost midnight now Life of a Lawyer and a Mafia. One could say his upations are weird, both light and darkness. Alexander looked around as he watched the Alphas carrying Some bags out of the car trunk and he was really speechless. You know Alexander, Im a married man and besides they had wanted to stay over also right guys?? George turn to the group of boys and men of thirty years old and not above. They all was just gawking at him as they were short of words, George felt the urge to kick them in their balls. He used his eyes to tell them to cooperate with him but they had that Look on their faces that gave him away. Damn you idiots George cursed under his breath and turn to look at Alex slowly I swear, I didnt mean to intrude, I know you love your space but a little livelihood would help.. right?? George tried not to sound like a fool as he kept and maintained that cheeky smile on His face. Im not a sadist George!! This is so uncalled for! Alexander bellowed at George who scratched his head and let out an awkward cough. Just for the night?? George asked calmly and Alexander looked at the men so coldly as his eyes scanned every one of them. Fine, they can stay till tomorrow on mymand! Alexander said and beckoned on twenty five who immediately walked towards him and bowed respectfully. Sir.. I have a task for you.. Alexander said to him in a calm and reserved tone as he faced the others and waved his hand dismissively George take them to the Penthouse at the fountain sideways.. Alexander walked away after saying that and Twenty five didnt fail to follow him along. Alexander suddenly stopped in his track and George who was addressing the men was quiet when seeing Alexander turn to look at them again. Does he want to change his mind and push them out??! George asked himself solemnly. And Before I forget.. Well done and congrattions on our victory against The Cobras and Hitmen, George have a small party with them at the penthouse! With that said, Alexander walked away. George was surprised so as the men who were there. Was this really their boss?? The time they all fought against The red Kings and uprooted the gang from Europe, they didnt receive even a word like Good job from Alexander but now he wants to even throw a party for them and let them sleep at his penthouse. George sighed, thinking why unfortunate things happen to nice people. Amelia had indeed changed their stone Of a Alex. Alexander had made progress in many areas. George nevertheless led the people to the penthouse as they gasped in shock when seeing the clean and modest penthouse. There were actually two penthouses at the back but one was facing a fountain while the other was facing an artificialke at the front of the penthouse. The penthouse opposite the Lake was more preferable as it was more beautiful and magnificent than the one at the fountain side. The penthouse close to the fountain wasnt that bad but it was situated in a calm and not too romantic settings unlike the one opposite the Artificialke. The view there was breathtaking and refreshing, even if it was night time now, they could already guess which was more nice. Meanwhile all this didnt leave the sight of the little Lolita that was up in her room. Though her window was far away from the gate area but she could see them clearly but cant hear what they were saying She was frowning so deeply. Just then, her phone rang out and she jolted as she walked towards her phone and her eyes flickered when she saw the number.. Catalyst Web Private number. Why was a private number calling her?? She slowly answered the call and ced it close to her ear as she kept quiet for a while before saying Hello?? A voice came from the other end, it was knight calling. Ah Little Lolita, sorry for not calling all this while, hows your health?? Mrs Gale frown so deeply You-Where have you being?? Why didnt you call all this while??! My life is in danger in Alexanders mansion so quickly do your stuff! Mrs Gale was running impatient especially as she thought that Alexander wasnt doing anything muchtely as if he wasnt aware of her involvement with knight. You dont have to worry, well I was attacked by Alexanders men today and he happened to have set some explosives in my warehouse so Im kind of stranded but not too worry! Knight said that calmly from The other end. I cant stay here and if i am to stay for even an hour more, I might die of panic attack! Come get me now Knight!All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Knight remained silent for a while before saying Youre still at the Rons mansion and I cante there now, the security are too tight now that Im on the run! Gales eyes constricted as she hurriedly said to knight over the phone Dont worry about that, well meet at the regr spot at Square silencer, Lets meet tomorrow, I know how to leave the house and Alexander wont be paying any heeds to me anyways since his little lover just passed away hahaha! Mrs Galeughed heartily and Knight chuckled lightly Knight said from the other side dont get followed by that bastards men be careful Lolita! Mrs Gale scoffed coldly I seriously dont like that name, My name is Mahogany and not that dumb Lolita of a name! Knight remained silent for a while which got Mrs Gale to frown as she gritted her teeth and said to him again You said you wont call me little Lolita anymore so whats the deal now?? I only took up that name because you have requested it so you can reminisce about your daughter that died few years ago, and I did all this for you, Y-you know how much I love you knight you wont leave me in mid air right?? Knight sighed from the other side Lets just meet first! For now stay safe, I gotta hang up now Mrs Gale hurriedly said Wait. What?? Knight asked confused about her sharp tone she had asked him to wait. I love you Mrs Gale said as she bite her lower lip, she walked towards the stool and sat down, she was facing the mirror as she looked into the mirror. Her hand slowly trailed on her face and just then, the phone made a beep and the call was disconnected. He didnt even reciprocate her words back! But it was already a good thing, Atleast he didnt refute him or Turn her down immediately like before. He was even more gentle to her tonight as he just talked her normally. Maybe her hard works are finally paying off! All her years of sticking with him was soon going to prove its worth. It was just a matter of time. Mrs Gale walked to her door and pinned the door before using the keys to lock it. She tested it to see if it would be removed with a little efforts or more. She had being doing this for a while now, since morning when she got news of What happened in the columbarium from the daily newspaper. She had seen it in the television as well. And from Alexanders expressions, he was greatly affected by the lose of his wife, Amelia. Mrs Gale has being locking her door properly in case of anything funny, Alexander would try to do. She had imagined all possible things he was gonna do to her when he finds out her identity. Mrs Gale slowly walked the window and frown when he saw the light from the penthouse and was about to scoff at Alexanders silly idea. He brought his men over to protect him?? Foolish! Mrs Gale or rather Mahogany muttered and walked towards her bed and lie on it. Tomorrow, shes be meeting the man that makes her heart swell. Meanwhile at the study of Alexander Ron. Alexander sat there as Twenty five dropped the phone that had a voice changer on the desk. Alexander remained quiet for a while and twenty five also followed suit, waiting for Alexander to speak up first. Mahogany Alexander muttered confused, then who was Gale?? Who was the woman that took care of him and his younger brother, Maverick?? And even pampered Amelia?? The love of her lifeAlexander stressed again. Strange.. Twenty five bowed slightly before saying calmly sir, lets just leave it well find that out by tomorrow when she goes to SS! Twenty five said as he tried to reason with Alexander. Thats true, but I think things are beginning to go deeper andplicated, but dont worry I have everything prepared for tomorrow, just go take a rest now and pass through the back door so you wonte in contact with Mahogany. It was as if Alexander was already used to calling her Mahogany. The name was so foreign though as if it was a name from the early men. Twenty five nodded and begged to take his leave and Alexander just nod at him as he made his way out of the room. Tomorrow was another day for them. Gale now Mahogany. Which should be believed?? Alexander sighed and got up from his chair and dialed Liams number which was immediately connected. Get Team B ready for a torturing mission tomorrow, the location should be at the catalyst Web in the Alphas Headquarter Alexander was determined to find out what this was all about even if he was to take her to a ce that was a bed of pain, death and hell. If he had wanted to torture her lightly by either cutting some of her body parts, he would bring her to his Den at the cell of SS but when things are too annoying and needs serious torture. It was the Catalyst web that person or people would be taken to. Alexander hates it when people fake identities the most. And he was gonna make Mrs Gale or Mahogany get tired of that game. Soliloquizing Alexander didnt get any ounce of sleep that night. He had preupied himself throughout the day so he would shift his mind from what had happened but it was during the night time, ites ring at him. Mercilessly, all those memories of how the building had copsed reyed in his mind as he felt his head aching so bad. He was already feeling so down as he rolled on the bed without sleep anywhere close to him. He was sleep deprived. He sighed again as he suddenly realize that the bed was this big. All this while, he felt the bed was just right with two people on it and it was always so warm that he always want to end everything during the day and rush back to it. Because he knew it was going to be afortable sleep but now that Amelia wasnt there. The bed felt so wide and gloomy as if it also realize one person was missing from it. Alexander slowly got up from his bed and walked towards the couch where he could tight himself and eventually fall asleep. When Morning came, Alexander was like a ghost who was pushed out of the death realm to go fed for himself in the human world. His hair messy and tattered. He had only slept at the early hours of the day.. He woke up with a body ache as he groaned while walking sluggishly to the bathroom. He gazed at the bathroom mirror as he looked at himself mockingly. He was mocking himself, hating himself for the dy. For not realizing too early that he loved Amelia. Not being able to protect her, he remembered his words that he had told her that whenever she was in troubles and doubt he woulde for her. And he would be right beside her! Scoff! Alexander scoffed at himself as he sh some of water on his face and it reddened a bit. He took a quick shower and onlybed his hair..Owned by N?velDrama.Org. His jaw and the under of his lip has start to grow some hairs and he hadnt had the time to shave it. He directly went to his study and called his assistant, Sam and asked how thepany was doing and asked him to send him the files he might need to cross check to his house in the evening of that day. After making that call, he sat on the chair close to the window, that was his favorite spot. His phone beeped as he got a notification from Liam. {Catalyst Web prepared..!} Alexander smirked as he messaged Twenty five {Ready??} Just then, a message also came in as if twenty five has being waiting for his message for a while. {Done sir, all set} Alexander looked out of the window and saw Mrs Gale walking towards the gate entrance and she stopped to talk to the guards there. Everything has being prepared, those alphas that camest night were still in thepound while some were at the gate. George had probably put them throughst night so the alpha named Scale didnt hesitate to let her out of thepound. Alexander send a quick one to Twenty five {Shes out, monitor her and Do the needful} ?? Mrs Gale quickened her footsteps as she walked out of thepound. She tried to maintain a calm demeanor as she pretended she was going to the mall to get food stuffs. She hailed down a cab and got in as she looked out of the window and sighed. If she could get far away from the building Easternnd as a whole, she would be happy. Quickly, she reached SS and got down from the car as she made her way into the restaurant There were lots of customers that day as she scanned her eyes around the ce before walking towards the chair at the corner side. A van stopped not too far as the window rolled down casually as twenty five looked out of the car and spotted Mahogany sitting close to the window and he took a picture and sent it to Alexander along with a short message. { On Track!} What seems like ten hours past by but it was only six hours and Mahogany was already so impatient as she continued to look around the restaurant for Knights presence. She had already ordered for vodka to pass the time. Seeing Mrs Gale drinking from a bottle of Vodka, twenty five frowned. Wasnt she an old woman?? How can she still drink such drinks at her age?? Something was really fishy here! Meanwhile, Mahoganys heart was drumming on her chest as she was so confused. Was this how Knight was going to ditch her?? After everything she did for him?? She couldnt call him because the number she had was not avable, he must have probably changed numbers because of the fight with Alexander, as he didnt want to be tracked. And she doesnt have anything to reach him now since Grey also changed his numbers. Knight had called herst night with a private number which cant be called back. Soon it was already noon time and Mahogany got up from the chair to leave. She didnt forget to pay for the drinks she had emptied and left. Twenty fives gaze followed her as she headed towards the small alley way leading to the mall and he immediately took out his phone and dialed series of numbers. Shes heading towards the alleyway.. mistakes are not allowed! Twenty five said to the person over the phone. Twenty five rxed in the van as he waited for the news. Twelve immediately stationed close to the alleyway with three other men. On her way.. he informed them and they were all at alert and just then, Mahogany was walking towards the ce, her face covered in a deep frown. Totally unhappy about how knight ditched her. She didnt notice the four men who were at the corner. Damn that guy.. mahogany was soliloquizing and didnt even notice when the four men was walking closely behind her. And just then, she felt that something was wrong as she was about to turn to look back when She felt her eyes turn dark as a sharp pain spread on her head and she past out Torture Materials Twelve nodded at the people and they quickly dragged her out of the way and went to a corner and twelve dialed twenty fives number and it was immediately answered. Good news?? Yes, we have her! Twelve was on par with twenty five when it came to power, they were both in same team and had more missions together. Twenty five was always the master nner while he was the thug who executed the n. They make such a wonderful pair. Not long, the van drove close to the alleyway and twenty five came down and walk towards the direction of the alleyway and called out. Quicklye to take the gift! That was a secret code that was taught by Alexander to the alphas and some elders in the gang taught the newbies. Alexander had also taught Amelia these codes. It was like an indirect speech, the alphas can use it tomunicate even in presence of their enemies without the enemy knowing what they were talking about. Just then, Twelve came out from the alley and twenty five beckoned for him Everywhere is cleared, quickly bring her out and lets get out of this ce immediately! Twelve didnt waste any time and he quickly gestured for the men to take mahogany out of the alley and they carried her roughly into the van and zoomed off. In a forest area, covered in woods and tall trees. Birds chirping around as the trees covered most of the atmosphere. The ce was so serene and dark, emitting a very dangerous vibe and feeling of nostalgia. If one was toe towards that forest area, his or her hairs would be standing erect due to how dark and evil looking it was. The forest area was in a location close to the Dark sea, that area was a reserved area that was bought and privately owned by the Alphas. Passed down from generations to generations.. All descendants of the Men who were all legends and idols of the Alpha gang. No one was allowed toe near the area as it was rumored that there lived a wide beast in the area and it was reared by the owner of the area.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. There was a straight and smooth road at the middle of the forest, all bushes cleared to the sides as the road was leading ahead to a very far distance. A van reached the front of the forest area and didnt hesitate to drive in, the van sped along the smooth road with both forest bushes at the sides. It was bright outside the forest but very dark once one enter the forest area. Even aftering here regrly since they were thirteen, Twelve felt the chills whenever they entered this ce. Theyve heard of tales about the great fight that happened in this particr forest area when the Red kings first and early men had invaded thend and almost discovered Alphas hideout and how bloody it turned out. It was during the great time of Mr Lorraine Rons grandfather. And their fathers had taught them that lots of corpse were dumped in the forest area. Twelve looked around vigntly as he was sitting tight in the car and the car sped along the road that was duly maintained and repaired by Alexanders men. As they drove for about thirty minutes, they reached a very strong looking and big metal gate. As they reached there, the van stopped close to the gate and a beep sound echoed slightly as the gate had already scanned the van. The gate was well made with technology that was of high grade that it scans the vehicles that reached it. The state-of-the-art x-ray machine rapidly scans iing vehicles. IAGS is a system that uses valid members QR code pass card to activate the gate without triggering the rm. And It is developed to connect to the inte and provide a real-time email notification if any unauthorized activities detected in the area. The worth was pocket sinking. Not every car can pass through it as it has it own special code. And few members of the Alpha has the code. Just those immediate to the Don and superiors and elders. The van drove into thepound but there was no house in sight, passing through that gate was like passing through a forest to enter another forest area. They met with so many guards at each stop, who scanned their faces and check for bugs and as well the code before allowing them in. If it was the elders or the Don of the gang, they didnt need to be checked as they have a very high profile and powers. Phoenix and Sly was not at all excluded as they were superiors. There was still a forest area with both bushes to the sides and the road was smooth. The journey this time was not so far or long as the Van quickly stopped in front of a very big, magnificent and nice looking building. This was the Alphas headquarter. Where ns are cooked and materialized, here weapons and killing engines were stored. All meetings about the Alphas way forward was held here and no one can intrude. Thats the reason for all the securities. Twenty five came out of the van and walked towards the trunk and twelve opened the trunk and he and twenty five carried the seemingly old woman and walked towards the building. there were few guards in the area. They passed through the dark as they were immediately out of sight. After taking her in and was there for some hours to set things up. Twenty five came out of the dungeon that looked more like a grave, it was so dark and had all sorts of torturing materials there, Brazen bull, Breaking wheel, Breast ripper, Batog, Birch rod, Catapelta, Choke pear, Cattle prod, Judas cradleKnee splitter, Led sprinkler and so on. There was a strong iron chair there and a metal looking bed, also known as the catalyst structure where enemies were beaten or tortured to death. They beg that they end their lives.! When a person gets into this room, if the person cane out alive, his or her life would be filled with worst nightmares that whenever they wake up, sweats will be on their bodies. This catalyst web was where Mahogany was kept and waiting for Phoenix toe do her some Favour. Prey’s Request Phoenix slowly walked into the catalyst web and he spotted The olddy sitting on a chair with a blindfold on her eyes. She was so calm and collected as if she had experienced simr incidents before. Phoenix had a different vibe today as he was wearing a ck torso and a white shirt. He slowly made his way towards the old mahogany and stopped in front of her but she didnt flinch none feel scared. Phoenix smirked as he knew that mahogany was not a dummy at this, she was a hard nut. If youe here to extract information from me! Well, too bad for you guys today, I talk ording to my mood! Mahogany said aloofly as she sat there. She didnt a soothsayer to tell her that these people who had kidnapped her were Alexanders men. She had expected this oue Phoenix chuckled slightly as he walked towards the side and a guard brought an iron chair for him and he sat while facing Mahogany. Phoenix crossed both legs as he ced two hands on hisp while looking at Mahogany amusingly as if she was a fool. Mahogany kept a cold face even with that blindfold. Well One fact you should know, I grant the wish of my preys! Thats why Im also going to fulfill yours Phoenix gestured for one of the men who immediately stood close to mahogany. Panic was evident on her face before it slowly wiped. What are you up to Liam?? Mahogany gritted out her teeth. Phoenix tsk in utter disgust what should I call you now?? Gale or Mahogany?? Mahogany was immediately startled, her mind filled with different thoughts. Was her cover blown now?? How did he did hee know about her other name?? Did Knight disclose her identity in a fist of anger to show that he was more smarter than Alexander?? Phoenix continue to watch her expression change from time to time. He was already getting impatient with her frustrating expressions as he had to go for some undercover missions for his client that was framed for a murder case.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. He dropped his legs as it echoed in the room that was dark with only a smallmp as source of lightings. Bids of sweats filled mahoganys forehead as her hair began itching, not knowing what to think anymore! She was slowly began to doubt Knight, he had called herst night toe to their usual spot in SS and when she got there, he didnt show up and it just so happened that Alexanders men caught her on her way back. Knight must have probably set her up so Alexander could catch her and kill her. But then again, Knight has no reason to betray their years of friendship by setting her up. It wasnt just adding up! She was still contemting when Phoenixs voice broke her out from her sea of thoughts. You dont have to think too much! for youll tell me things yourself! Phoenixs tone carried a hint of challenge as he was standing there imposingly. Mahogany scoffed Too much confidence kills. Like I said earlier, I only say things base on my mood and right now.. Im not in the mood to tell! Phoenixs lips turn into a fine and straight line as his eyes darkened and thats the reason I said I abide by my preys request, from your words, you say things ording to your mood and Im telling you this now. Im gonna put you in that mood where youll beg me toe hear you out! A bitter taste linger in mahoganys lips for some reasons as a bad feeling began to crept up in the pit of her belly. His words doesnt seem so simple! Phoenix didnt waste anytime with the old woman as he made his way to the door and turn to look at her again before saying Enjoy your time here and before I forget. I must say this, after tasting your meals the few times Ie over to Alexanders home, The food you make are delicious with that said, Phoenix walked out as the guard at the door walked into the room. Twelve slowly advance towards Mahogany who suddenly felt goosebumps crawl up to her skin. W-what! what are you up to?? Mahogany stuttered as she felt the presence going to her back. Twelve didnt bother to exchange words with her as he directly took off her blindfold. Mahogany quickly snap her head towards Twelve, her eyes scanned the room and her eyes fell On The torture weapons on the walls and tables. The room was dark as she felt that she wasnt part of this world anymore, the room was like an underground and hell. She couldnt hear any sounds nor was there any windows to see the outside world, Atleast trees that were outside. Hey you what are you guys up to??!! Just remove the ropes around my hands so we can have a nice talk! Mahogany said to twelve who snorted at her. If I were you, Ill think of how Im going to blend some wrinkles on my face then when youre done,e have a nice talk! Twelve directly threw the blindfold on the ground and walked towards Mahogany. He was standing in front of her and her face was just few meters away from his thigh and she looked up to him but he didnt even spare her a gaze as he was feeling disgusted. He suddenly felt that she wasnt an old woman, she was acting more like a seductive slut from a bar. He jerked her off from the chair and she was startled as she stood in front of him. Her legs were free, but her hands were bond to the back as he led her to the other side of the room that was free from Tables or iron chairs. Mahogany was still bewildered as she walked with Twelve holding her arms tightly. Can you Atleast release your grip from my arm?? Mahogany was already frustrated as she walk along with him who had a stone and fierce look. After reaching the end of the room at the right hand side, that was when Mahogany felt that the room was so big, Twelve sat her on a iron chair and bound her legs. But she kept struggling but he was more stronger and with the aid of other guards, he sessfully tied her both legs. He didnt blindfold her as her hands and legs were tied. This is bullshit! Mahogany looked at her legs that was tied as she was just sitting there. Twelve wore her a metal on her neck that seems like an electrocuted appliances. Twelve didnt say a word and just walk to the door and turn off all the lights andmps. What???????? Psychological Torture This. This was much more worst than physical torture. It was a psychological torture where the eyes are wide opened in the dark but cant see a thing. The rooms pitch-ck darkness caused distress as Mahogany sat on the chair, her eyes unable to detect any hint of light. The absence of illumination pained her vision and posed a significant risk; prolonged exposure to such conditions could result in permanent blindness. The experience she endured surpassed mere mortality. The room enveloped Mahogany in a suffocating shroud of imprable darkness. Not a single glimmer of light pierced the oppressive void that surrounded her. Every corner, every surface, was consumed by this inky ckness, rendering her sight useless in the absence of any discernible source of illumination. Wide-eyed, Mahogany strained to perceive even the faintest trails of light, but her efforts were in vain. The room seemed to devour any semnce of brightness, leaving her with nothing but a disorienting veil of obscurity. The very act of opening her eyes became an exercise in futility, as the overwhelming darkness pressed against her fragile retinas, causing a searing pain that threatened to engulf her entire being. As the minutes stretched into hours, and the hours into days, Mahogany became acutely aware of the psychological torment that this lightless prison imposed upon her. The absence of visual stimuli left her mind to wander aimlessly in the vast expanse of nothingness, her thoughts echoing through the emptiness of the room. She found herself yearning for even the simplest glimpse of light, an ephemeral glimmer to anchor her sanity amidst the abyss. She wasnt allowed to sleep, though the room was dark but she didnt know how the people knew she was about to fall asleep, just when her eyelids closes, a sharp pain would spread in her throat. as the natal around her neck was an electric iron. Her eyes had turn red due to the days of sleepless nights, she was stuffed with food but wasnt given Water to quench her thirst. She felt dead, she was about turning blind, starved and thirsty and not allowed to see light. Yet, the darkness persisted, unyielding in its grip. Days turned into nights, and nights into an interminable cycle of perpetual gloom. The weight of this solitary confinement bore down on Mahoganys spirit, threatening to crush her will. She could not escape the gnawing fear that, if subjected to this relentless darkness for much longer, she would lose not only her sight but also a fundamental part of her identity. In the depths of her despair, Mahogany contemted the true magnitude of her predicament. It became apparent that this torment surpassed the mere bounds of mortality. It was a form of suffering that transcended physical pain, delving into the recesses of her psyche. The absence of light, the deprivation of any visual connection to the world tside, was stripping away her sense of self, leaving her adrift in an unfathomable void.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Four days had passed since her confinement began, and the darkness showed no signs of relenting. The prospect of permanent blindness loomed ominously over Mahogany, threatening to extinguish the very essence of her existence. With each passing moment, her fear intensified, mingling with a profound sense of helplessness. In this bleak, lightless chamber, Mahogany clung to a dwindling flicker of hope. Though dim and fragile, it remained a beacon of resilience with intelligence. Meanwhile in a Dungeon at the Rons warehouse where Alexander keep weapons. Ash was tied to a bed as she has being there since she was taken away by Alexanders men. She didnt know what they wanted to do with her and she was so scared. She wonders why her father hadnte for her yet, she was about loosing it. she was not only starving but thirty for water, she was in this particr bed for ages now with no hope of escaping, the room was well lit, she couldnt hear any sounds and her clothes were sticky to her body because there was no source of venttion nor air conditioner to keep the room warm. She felt itchy all over and very ufortable, she scream her lungs every now and then but it seems as if she was no longer in the earth as nobody came for her nor hear her out, she couldnt even hear the sound of needles or water droplet. This was much more difficult to bear! Just then a clicking sound echoed, and she jolted in fright and both delight, she had thought she might have probably gone deaf because of the days of not hearing anything but it seems that part of her was still efficient. She tried to look up to see who was at the door as it was already opened but she couldnt move too much because of the tight ropes around her body. She was tied to the bed like the way bags of onions are tied in a truck heading to India. Alexander slowly walked up to her, she scanned him as her eyes brimmed in tears. He was wearing a ck down coat with ck torso and ck shirt as if he was.. Mourning someone! Ashs heart clenched as she thought of that but she wasnt regretting any of her actions Atleast she was able to wipe Amelia out of the picture and seems that Alexander had finallye to his senses and came to get her! Alexander had a serene expression without a single ripple, he looked more thinner and his beards had overgrown unlike before when he didnt have hairs on his jaw. His hair wasnt properlybed as he was busy these days, beforeing to the warehouse, he had heard from the news that Mr Robertson had tried to fight with his wife Marion, due to frustration and Marion who her limbs were broken, stabbed Mr Robertson in the chest and he died before help coulde and Marion was arrested and would undergo trial three days from then. Alexander made Phoenix take over as thewyer to defend Luke as if he was seeking justice for him and make sure Marion rots in jail without help. Jolie was taken in by her mothers drunk brother who was a gamble addict, her life was left in Gods hands. A-Alex.. Ash called as her voice came out hoarse because of thirst for the past days, her throat was painful as she tried to call his name but Alexander just looked at her in contempt. Ash was startled with that look. What was going on with him?? Didnt hee to take her back??! Don’t Do That Alex I-i thirst! Ash tried to call out again but her voice was so soar as if she felt her throat was about to tear apart. Please give me a drink Ash wanted to cry out and make that her puppys eyes but she had no strength to even cry as if her tears were finished in her eyes. Alexander just turn around and walked towards the jug close by and Ash blinked in tears, he-he still cared for her! She still had a chance to be with him! to move his heart! Ash was so happy as he watched Alexander bring the jug directly to her. Why didnt he pour it in a cup first? But Ash didnt linger in that thought as he watched Alexander walked towards her and he opened his thin lips and said calmly; Okay.. open your mouth and drink! Ash immediatelyplied as she looked helpless in that position, tied to a bed, she lift her head a bit as she opened her small mouth. Alexander opened the cover of the jug and bent the edge of the jug to give her water and Ash felt heaven finally smiled upon her. She wanted to drink as much as possible as she waited for him to pour the water out so she could quench her thirst. Ash immediately felt bad when Alexander started pouring the water on the ground close to her face. Her mouth was there! Wide open But he didnt pour it in but pour the water to the ground as he had a raised eyebrow. Shift your head to where the water is pouring and have a drink Alexander instructed and Ash had no choice but to shift a bit as she was too thirsty toin. She couldnt move any further due to the bond of the ropes around her. She inclined her head to the side but Alexander took a step back and shift the water away from her mouth again and Ash felt like crying. Oh sorry my bad.. let me take it close to you, just rx on the bed Alexander said again as if he was oblivious of whatever he was doing to her. Ash began to realize that he was probably toying with her but when one was so desperate.. It makes the person do unthinkable things that makes them look like fools. Ash so wanted toin but this was not where she had an option. So she rxed back on the bed with her mouth opened again and waited for Alexander to pour the water in but what she heard made her frown deeply. Oops the water got finished, I think you were so slow The words rolled out of his lips calmly, his face calm and not looking like someone who was taunting another human being. Alex.Ash let out in pain, this was not the Alex she knew! The Alex she knew wasnt this cold hearted towards her! A part of her was slightly regretting doing those things to Amelia. She would have Atleast waited patiently than to connive with Knight. And now she has been abandoned by Cyrus, only if she had knew better! Alexander didnt spare her a nce as he turn to look at the side and just then did Ash moon realize there was someone else in the room. It was actually three more people that was in The room, Mr Walker, Alexanders private doctor, George was also there and a bodyguard too called Twenty five.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. George had a very cold look on his face, he just cant seems toe with the term that Ash moon was a friend to their worst enemy. The red kings were always his, Alexanders, Liams and other familys worst enemy! They were known for how notorious and uwful they were! From Generations to Generations!! All this while he thought Ash was only infatuated in Alexander and wont be so foolish as to do something mean because she had that good-naive girl temperament. Sometimes he felt for her that she was loving a man from the side who cant see her love for him! But Who knew!! George Help me! what are they all doing here! Get far away from me Alex..!! Ash cried out as she saw the doctor taking out a syringe. Mr Walker wasnt just a doctor but also a Psychiatrist. You can treat her now! Alex said as he walked far away from Ashs bed and stood close to George who was standing near the door, George had stand close to the door as he couldnt go in to look at the whole thing unfold. He knew Alexander was ruthless and was hellbent in his new found idea and mission to eliminate any source of danger to Amelia and those who had make her suffer or make her life unbearable at the least! Ash should have known better than stepping on Alexanders tail Alexander can be the devil when provoked and Alexander was the type that was always unlucky in that wholeplicating thing Called Love so when That corpse that was wearing same clothes as Amelia, was found at the Columbarium, he almost went berserk due to the heartbreak. Mr Walker walked towards Ash moon who was struggling on the bed as She felt itching all over, her hair was standing up. Fear gripped her so hard!please dont do this to me please Alex!!! Ash cried out as the doctor used his wet cotton wool to wipe her neck and she felt electrocuted as she started to struggle. Never! Dont insert that on me! You Ron turning to face Alexander, she shouted like a crazy woman Can you face my dad?? If you were to kill me now, do you think youd go free?? My father would hunt you down and trust me when I say hes going to take you six feet below! Alexanders muscr voice rang out from the side as he said nonchntly Dont worry, when Im done with you soon, youd beg for death itself that you want to quickly give up and trust me when I say. Youd be going six feet below the dirt surface with no Casket!! Mr Walker slowly brought the injection to her neck and Ash let out a sharp and agonizing cry. Dont!!!!. But it was already toote as Mr Walker release the fluid in Ashs neck and Ash felt something wrong with her body that instant, as her head began to spin that she felt it was about to explode. Never Will I Wheres that unfilial Son of mine! Get my phone Sammy let me call him! Mr whacker was pacing around the Sitting room in panic The clients in the US had contacted him that his son had yet to supply their goods to their warehouses and they even questioned their Reliability which was one think he couldnt swallow as a business man. Travis had left home for five days straight now, with the intention of going oversea to monitor his fathers goods for him though he has a gamingpany of his own, he sometimes help his old father when ites to traveling work. Mr Whacker had heard the news that a columbarium was set on fire and it happened that Alexanders wife was in the building at that time, and a corpse was taken for autopsy but hadnt be proven yet. He went to greet Alexander and give him some words of wisdom and told him if he was to need assistance that he should just ring him. He had no idea his son had went to the columbarium that day, on his way to the airport. And Travis always liked driving by himself so he didnt get the information that Travis was at the columbarium. And now his big clients in Los Angelos was now calling him that their goods hasnt reached them yet and distribution havent taken ce yet. That little. Ill deal with him so hard! Just then Sammy, the young butler in the Whackers family house rushed in with Mr Whackers phone and he immediately grabbed it while mumbling and cursing under his breath. Fool, youre so dead! Better pick up or Im gonna fry you for dinner stupid! Mr whacker searched through his contact list and fished out Traviss phone number and he immediately dialed it. It was out of reach! What the hell is wrong with this boy?? I could have gone there myself instead of relying on thatzy ass of a Son! Mr whacker wasnt having any of this as he dialed his number again and it was still out of reach! Sammy stood close by the side without saying a word! Mr Whackers face was unsightly as he dialed the number again and this time it was answered! You foolish son! do you want to cause my untimely death??! Where the hell are you??! Whys the goods dying??! Mr whacker bombarded Travis with questions after questions. Im sorry for the inconvenience dad, something came up that I had to be abit dyed, Ill meet them up by tomorrow! Travis said from the other end. His voice a bit hoarse as he looked down at his arm that was wrapped in gauze, he had started to recover from the woundstely. Mr whacker who was unaware scolded Travis No, you go meet them today and have their goods shipped ! Mr whacker didnt like a matter of dy as he liked to do his things quickly and fast. But Travis had suddenly start to turnzy in his opinion these days! And he doesnt like this new changes and oue so he didnt dy to scold his Son, he suddenly wished he had another child now. That cant be possible now! I have to go now.. Take care dad! Travis immediately hung up as he stood up from his chair in hurried footsteps. Ughh Travis Giovanni Whacker!! Mr whacker shouted Travis full name as he almost slumped but Sammy held his hand and Mr whacker shook his hands off him. Im okay! Take your hands off me! Mr whacker said and sat on the couch close by. He seriously needs to take it easy now! He wasnt getting any younger as he was old now! And stressing too much was not good for his health just as the doctor had advised. You go and get me my Afternoon tea! Mr whacker dismissed Sammy as he held his stick with both hands while breathing calmly, trying to suppress his anger but then again he muttered within gritted teeth. Youre so dead Travis Giovanni Whacker!! Cough Cough!! Someone is swearing at me.. Travis cleared his throat that felt dried all of a sudden as he opened the door and a man in white coat entered the room. Good day doctor! Travis weed the doctor who responded with a smile. Hows the arm?? Still feeling pains anywhere?? The doctor asked with a professional smile. Not really doc. help me change the gauze! Travis said and walked towards the blue sofa and made himselffortable as the doctor walked towards him. The doctor smiled at Travis as he tended to his wounds, changing the gauze around his arm and redressing it. Travis sat in the chair, quietly enduring the necessary process. He appreciated the doctors gentle touch and skillful hands, which worked with precision and care. Once the doctor finished, Travis stood up, his gaze fixed on the floor for a moment as he collected his thoughts. He took a deep breath, steadying himself before speaking. Turning towards the doctor, he mustered a calm demeanor despite the worry that etched his face. My wounds are healed now, Travis said, his voice carrying a faint hint of relief. He cleared his throat, gathering his courage to address the matter weighing heavily on his mind. But. what about her? he asked, his voice tinged with concern. The doctors smile faltered slightly, his eyes reflecting both empathy and understanding. He knew exactly who Travis was referring to. Im afraid shes still in critical condition but might wake up either tonight or tomorrow morning, the doctor replied gently, his voice filled withpassion. She sustained severe injuries, and her recovery took more time. Travis felt a pang of sadness grip his heart. The thought of his friend, Amelia, fighting for her life in a hospital bed sent waves of anxiety crashing through him. The idea of her suffering was almost unbearable. A mix of frustration and determination welled up within Travis. He had to be strong, not only for himself but for Amelia as well. He met the doctors gaze, the intensity in his eyes conveying his deep concern and unwavering love for Amelia.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Please, Travis pleaded, his voiceced with desperation. Do everything you can to help her. She has being through a lottely and somebody needs her the most! I understand! The doctor nodded She might regain consciousness anytime soon.. What do you n on doing with her?? Are you going to take her back to Europe or let her stay here with you in Los Angelos?? The doctor asked and Travis narrowed his eyes! Never will i Psychiatric Never will i convert someones wife! I know I might have start to develop some soft spot for her this past few days but I still have some conscience and besides if I am to be found out by her husband.. He will hunt me down to the end of the world! Travis was still young and didnt want to waste his life like that and besides his father had always cautioned him to be out of Alexanders sight always. The doctor didnt say anything more as he carried his bag When she wakes up! Ill immediately let you knowAll content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Thank you Sir, I really appreciate the help youve rendered to us, thank you sir Travis was so grateful as the doctor had always being so considerate and consistent with him. Its part of my duty as a doctor dear, no need for the thanks! With that, the doctor walked towards the door and Travis escorted him to the front door before biding him goodbye. Travis exhaled deeply and heavily as he sat on his bed, contemting if it was time! The fight between the Alphas and Red Kings is still on! he wasnt sure if he wanted Amelia to go back just yet! Europe.. Eastern Land,! Alexander crossed Both legs as he rxed on the sofa with his tie disheveled. He was just there alone, thinking to different dimensions! He just got a call from the doctor that the autopsy results were out! All the corpse that was found in the columbarium, he had run a test on them not sparing one, hepensated the families that lost their dear ones inside, they were not up to six corpses! The big question in his mind right now was Am I ready to face reality?? What if the results states that she was the corpse found?? Alexander also thought of the possibilities what if she wasnt the one? But the fear of finding out that she was the one was much more greater! This was the first time he felt downcast and confused, he really wish it was thetter. Alexander let out a mouthful of air as he sat there, before grabbing his phone and dialed some series of numbers and connected the phone to his earphones. He dropped the phone on the table and Chantel so happened to havee back from the mall, after Mahogany was apprehended by Alexander Ron, Chantel was made the head butler. She was dedicated and was also hardworking, coupled with the fact that though she was actually gossiping, but her gossip made him realize a lot of loopholes. So the position was like a gift to her as her pay also increased. Good day sir! Chantel acknowledged Alexanders presence as she quickly dashed to the kitchen without waiting for a reply, not that Alexander bothered to reply her. Just then, the call connected and a deep voice came from the other end. Say who do we have here?? Alexander Ron, its being a while! Mr Moons voice came from the other end as he sipped from his wine. Ever since his wife died, he had slowly be a prostitute who fuck around but he was though. rich. Alexander had always acknowledged him as the uncle he never had but since he changed to this type of man, Alexander slowly withdrew from him. Unfortunately for him, he also gave birth to a slutty daughter! Alexander tried to mask his disgust as he said calmly Mr moon, yes its really a long time! Mr moon had always wanted Alexander as his son inw but he didnt know what was taking their time! Yes, hows my daughter over there??! Mr moon was simply asking to know if Ash had seeded in having Alexander. If Alexander was to say yes, thats to say, they spend lots of time together to know how each other was fairing! Alexander knew his intentions so he said Well, Ive being busy with my love life that I dont keep track of her activities but then. its unfortunate..! Mentioning his love life a part of his heart clenched tightly as he bit his lower lip to control his emotions. Mr Moon was not pleased by that, he knew Alexander got married. for Ash had told him, thats the more reason he had allowed her toe down to Europe and get Alexanders love but it seems his daughter didnt make any progress. But he was not aware of the sins his daughter hade to make else he might have probably kicked against it or.. Whats so unfortunate!?? Mr moon asked as he roamed his hand on the round ass of thedy sitting on hisp, and resting her head in his chest and caressing his chest that was exposed due to the buttons that was unhooked. I just got a call from the men I asked to watch over your daughter, Ash Moon, and I was informed that she got herself involved with a guy here, named Knight Cyrus and they both had some sexual intercourse and got high on drugs.. So pitiful! Crack.!! Bang.!!! The sounds came from the other end as Mr moon threw the ss of wine in his hand and it made a cracking sound as it had shattered in pieces. Thedy in hisp also met same fate as she was flipped from his body andnded on the ground and she hissed in pain, her surgical ass was hurting. Tears welled up in her eyes as she quickly got up to leave as she grabbed her purse and left with an aggrieved face. She had thought she would make some cash tonight but it was all ruined by a single call. Hmph Damn it! She cursed under her breath as if she was about to spit out fire. Ron!! Where is she now? Is she okay?? Mr moon was in no mood to wine or dine anymore as he was immediately thrown into panic mood. Alexander curled his lips in contempt, pretending as if he cared! I took her to the hospital but she was confirmed to be mentally unstable so I wanted to get your permission if I can take her to the psychiatric hospital! Do whatever you want, please take care of her! I am cing her under your care! Mr moon said as his voice was hurried! Aint youing to Europe to take care of your daughter?? Aye what can I render there?? Just take care of her for me! I have some business to handle here! Alexander had expected that, how can he leave his blondes and sex buddies toe meet his daughter!? Mr moon was such a condemn entity! Okay then, be rest assured Alexander smirked with a devilish and cold eyes, his lips tinted upwards as he said meaningfully, meaning something more deeperShes safe with me Painful Than Death Alexander ended the call with a Wide smile, he knew what Mr moon was made of! he was a monk. Alexander already knows that after now, Mr moons phone number wont be avable again. If only he knew what his daughter is passing through. tsk tsk tsk! Alexander licked his lower lips as he felt thirsty for blood, he wanted to go for a blood bath. He wanted something to clear his mind. Just then, he remembered somebody who had disgusted him! Who had caused him headaches. He took his phone and dialed Georges phone number and it was immediately answered. Bring Ghost over to my house this minute! Alexander already knows that George was the one keeping Ghost since that painful incident. Now it was time for that guy toe and receive someshes for his carelessness. Meanwhile at the same time in the psychiatric hospital! Let me out, I want my Alex Heyy cant you hear me??! Hes calling out to me hehehehe.. Ash was wearing a patients scrub-like clothing, which consists of loose-fitting pants and a matching top. She was bond to the bed as her hair was messy and disheveled, she has being screaming since the previous night she was brought to this mental hospital. Her mental state has deteriorated so much that she was always trying to attack whoever came to her ward. There was a doctor that usuallye to attend to her and give her her medications and some doses. Ron! Im Mrs Ron do you understand?? Haha. Ashughed hysterically as she raised her head from the bed and applied force to free her hands but to no avail, she still had that maniacal smile on and she looked like a crazy witch in that posture. When Alex gets you. you all would be done for !! Ash yes Ash thats it An its Ash. A resoundingugh echoed again and just then, the door opened and the doctor walked in to see the crazy beautiful woman who was looked tattered. They were strictly informed not to take care of her and just give her the doses that Alexander Ron brings to the hospital at every intervals. Alexander had a good amount of shares in the psychiatric center so he was always given some face. They were to give her only those drugs and nothing more. The doctor was a psychiatrist at the hospital and he was also a member of Alpha (Well a lot of people dont know that fact) and he was to abide to the Leader of his gang and the Don of all Mafia gangs! He ced his hands into theb coat and walked vigntly into the room and was close to Ash who was snickering and bothughing at him.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org. The young doctor wrinkled his nose as he walked towards her bed, he had heard a lot of tales about this petite and naive looking girl.. it felt as if the negative talks were about someone else and not this girl on the bed. Im gonna bite you now did you see him! Hehe he called me!! Yeyyye let me tell you a secret. Hello Im busy now Ash kept tattering on as she was not making any sense, sometimes she paused and thenugh before getting so serious all of a sudden. The doctor didnt waste anytime on her as he beckoned for the men close to the door and they all came in, they were about three in numbers. They immediately swung into action as directed by the doctor, they bond her as the doctor brought out his syringe. Ashs eyes constricted as she saw the syringe, she began to struggle with the men who were holding her firmly. Shit. Its about time! The doctor as he pulled the clothes from Ashs arm to pierce the injection into her arm but she kept struggling. The doctor had filled the syringe with magic mushroom (hallucinogenic drugs). The Psilocybin Hallucinogenic drugs poprly known as magic mushrooms can make any mental health issues worse. The mushrooms were specially brewed by George and kept them in a bottle in form of liquid. Psilocybin can have both positive and negative physical and psychological effects. Psilocybin is not naturally addictive. The drug can trigger psychotic episodes. Psilocybin works by activating serotonin receptors, most often in the prefrontal cortex. This part of the brain affects mood, cognition, and perception. The quantity of the drug a person consumes, their past experiences, and their expectations of how the experience will take shape can all impact the effects of psilocybin. And Alexander had made the doctors inject her with lot of doses as they were to give her five syringe everyday and within four days, she might already be incurable as she would keep dwelling in her fantasy. That was the worst and best punishment for Ash who always wanted him, then she could have him in her mind as she continue to die within. No dont do that..!! Its bad! Ash said weakly as the syringe pierced into her skin and she felt the fluid roam around in her system and mixed with her blood. Her eyes rolled back as she fell unconscious and the doctor signed and gestured for the men to leave. Once Ash wakes up, shell be so crazy and violent because the dosages have exceeded its limits. She was so high on it now and her mental state was almost damaged that the only hope for repairing it, was as slim as a thread. The doctor looked at the unconscious girl before walking out with his cell phone in his hand, ready to make a call as his fingers danced around the screen. Catalyst Web.. I cant seriously be suffering like this while he roams around freely!! Mahogany thought as she was almost going insane due to the psychological torture. Her throat was like it was set on fire, it was so dry like the Sahara desert. Today made it, One week she had spent in this catalyst web and her self resolve and boldness had started to wear off. She had thought that if they dont get any useful information from her, they might release her or worst still. Take her life! But they didnt, if it was death she was ready to ept it whole heartedly but not this. This was much more painful than death!! She didnt want that. She has to confess so she could be spared of this torture!! Shaping Ghost’s Future A glint past by Mahoganys eyes as she felt a burst of motivation and resolve. All her life. she had loved and did everything humanly possible to be with Knight Cyrus but it seems all her efforts had gone into the drain for knight never considered her. Somebody. Just with that sentence that came out hoarse and unclear. Her throat seems as if it was about to tear into pieces. She was so weak as she felt a numbing headache as she called out very weakly. I will say it Somebody!! Whos there?? Mahogany used the least bit of her strength to shout and just then, a clicking sound of the door was heard and it was pushed open. A guard walked in. Mahogany felt funny whenever the guards came In To deliver her food, She could not see any light even when the door open and the guardes in, it was as if the ce outside the door was also dark. And she also wonders how the guardse in and be able to trace her while she couldnt make out their movements even when her eyes were wide opened in the dark. Whats your problem olddy??! The guards impatient voice rang out as he felt annoyed by the old woman who was Always giving them headaches. I. i want to confess something to Liam!! Im ready to speak the truth now! Mahogany cried out as she felt so angry for letting herself be deceived by that snake, Knight. The guard stood there for a moment before walking out of the room and mahogany immediately shouted in pain. Come back here! I said I want to confess.!! Mahogany felt stuffed up. Was it a sin to confess now?? If she doesnt confess, she would remain here and now that she wants to confess She was being ignored!! Mahogany gritted her teeth in fury while cursing at knight underneath her breath.. Bastard..! The Guard came out of the room and walked towards the end of the passage and slowly came out of the dungeon. Another guard took over from him as the guard moved away from the ce with his hands fiddling with his phone. Twenty dialed Phoenixs number and it was answered after few rings. Phoenix cold voice came from the side Go on! Twenty swallowed as he tried to keep his tone neutral. After Alexander he feared, it was Phoenix! Phoenix was like the younger and junior version of Alexander when ites to oppression, ring and carrying a very distant and cold threatening tone. Um she-the olddy says she wants to confess! Twenty said as his eyes roamed around to ease his nervousness. He suddenly wished that twenty five and twelve were here, he would have easily pass the phone to them and fled for his life. Phoenix said after a while let her be there for now, Ill be there in two days! Sir what if she changes her mind and refuse to talk after now!!?? Twenty raised a brow as he asked consciously, afraid of pissing him off. Phoenix smirked from the other side as he crossed both legs with aposed face, his back on the couch of Alexanders sitting room. He mostly spend time in Alexanders house more than in his house. And his wife was just enjoying thepany of her mother who came for a visit. And he felt ignored by her! He knew Alexander so well so he always made himself avable so Alexander wouldnt go out of control and barge into the city for a killing spree. Because if that idea was to pop up in Alexanders head, it was going to be so bloody and would be at the top of all tforms headlines. What made her want to talk now?? Isnt because of the predicament she found herself in?? inside the catalyst web?? Phoenix snorted let her be in there for Im certain she would have lied to my face if Ie now let her enjoy a little bit inside the web before Ie to address her but before then,, go on with the usual routine! Twenty swallowed hard and saluted before ending the call and he turn towards the building to have lunch. Poor mahogany, she didnt even know when its morning or evening!!Material ? N?velDrama.Org. Twenty made a mental note to himself never to betray the gang. Else he wasnt sure if he was that strong to contain with Phoenix talk more of the Don. Alexander Ron! Easternnd. Ghosts heart pounded in his chest as he stood across from Alexander, a few feet separating them. The weight of the situation pressed heavily on Ghost, and he couldnt help but feel a rising sense of urgency. His frightened state had even led him to consider the embarrassing possibility of wetting his pants in front of Alexander. Alexander, with amanding presence, remained seated on the couch. His gaze was fixed upon Ghost, his eyes piercing and cold. Ghost could only imagine the thoughts racing through Alexanders mind. The silence in the room entuated the tension, causing Ghost to feel increasingly vulnerable. For Ghost, it felt as though this day was the culmination of all his fears and regrets. He believed that he had sealed his fate the moment he left Amelia at the columbarium. Every step he had taken since then only served to reinforce his conviction that death awaited him. The weight of guilt and the fear of retribution hung heavily upon his shoulders. He had never been so stupid and clumsy before! Ghost couldnt continue running forever. He had always known that the day woulde when Alexander would summon him. That day had arrived, and there was no escaping the consequences of his actions. The realization of this inevitability only intensified Ghosts anxiety, fostering a sense of impending doom. Phoenix was sitting not too far from them as he also watch the whole thing without uttering a word. His presence could be hardly sensed in the tensed room. As Ghost stood there, his head hung low, he summoned the courage to meet Alexanders gaze. He was determined to face whatever judgment awaited him. The room seemed to close in around him, the air thick with anticipation. Ghosts mind raced, searching for words that could somehow mitigate the severity of his transgressions. Alexander remained silent, his expression unreadable. It was as if he held all the power in that moment, his judgment capable of shaping Ghosts future. Ghosts throat felt dry, making it difficult for him to speak. But he knew he had to face his user, no matter how intimidating the situation appeared. Taking a deep breath as he said nervously.. Death Bed Taking a deep breath, Ghost finally found his voice. Sir, I I know what Ive done is unforgivable, he said calmly, his voice trembling abit. I cant change the past, but Im here now, ready to face the consequences of my actions. Alexanders gaze softened ever so slightly, but his silence persisted. The weight of the unspoken words hung in the air, making Ghost increasingly uneasy. He fought the urge to fidget, reminding himself to stand tall and maintainposure. Ghost continued, his voice stronger now, despite the trembling in his body. I realize Ive let everyone down, and not only you but My madam. I failed as an Alpha!Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Alexander slowly dropped his leg on the ground as he watched Ghost stand there and a smirk formed on his lip. He was truly an alpha, though scared but didnt bend like some weakling. He didnt fidget with his cloth or stammer But that doesnt mean Alexander was gonna let him go so soon. Lets go for abat fight! Its being a while since Ive done that! Ghost immediately snapped his head to look at Alexander It was as if a bulb went off in Ghosts head, abat fight with Alexander Ron?? His face turn pale, knowing that he wont make it out alive and if Alexander was to go easy on him, his body would be so unsightly. He woulde out scathed and disheveled like a person who had received a death sentence. Phoenix raised a brow and thought that Alexander was going too hard on Ghost. Not that he was sympathetic towards Ghost but because he knew the condition ghost would find himself after the fight. He was sure Alexander wanted to vent his anger on ghost and it would be so bad on the young alpha. He will be like a walking dead after the fight. X..Phoenix tried to voice out his opinion but he was cut short by Alexander Or do you want to fill in for him?? Alexander asked Phoenix instead and Phoenixs eyes constricted. Though he was almost as strong as Alexander but there were still a big gap in between. He couldnt stand Alexander for a long time. Alexander was so skilled in fighting than him, thest time they both had a one on one fight He barely managed to preserve his life as Alexander was in a worst mood, it was the period he caught Hry having an affair with their friend, Colin. Alexander had ask him for abat fight and he agreed in the sense that he wanted to help Alexander vent out by fighting. But it didnt end well for the both of them, especially Phoenix who had to spend two days at the hospital, receiving treatment with both legs wrapped in a gauze. But he knew this matter was much more worst than Hrys case. They were pr differences as Hry was just a mere girlfriend who Alexander thought he loved, that cheated on him. This case was concerning his wife that he loved but was killed under his nose Phoenix threw his eyes on the floor as he didnt dare to speak any further, his wife was still at home waiting for him. He even made a mental note to go home by evening time to spend time with his wife. Alexander slowly stood up and just then, a guard came in and announced to them; Sir the field at the back has being prepared for thebat fight! Ghost bite the lower part of his lips as he made a tight fist, he made himself prepared for the worst. He had witness that horrible fight between Phoenix and X and he had never wished to have that kind of fight with Alexander. Phoenix whom was more stronger than he was, was actually beaten to a pulp, then what about him?? This was his death now he knew it. Ghost slowly walk out behind Alexander as they headed to the back of the house and at the sight of the field that was like his death bed, Ghost felt stuff up! Alexander smirked and directly went to the field that was covered with fine stones. Alexander gazed at The man standing close to the entrance of the withouting in. One second of you still remaining there, your head would roll! Alexander threatened and Ghost immediately ran inside the field as he shook violently. If he was to live another life, he wasnt gonna leave his sirs wife even for a sec!! Los Angelos In a well lit room, Travis was sitting at the edge of the bed with a tired and frustrated expression. He just came back from the warehouse and had shipped his fathers goods to the various customers and he came back to see that the woman had already woken up. He sighed as he stared back at the woman who was literally ring at him You have to eat something Amy! You cant go on like this, you havent healedpletely from the impact of the smoke that entered your lungs! Amelias face was so red in anger as she stubbornly fold both arms together, she was sitting on the bed with the duvet covering from her waist downward. Truly I cant go on like this and thats the reason I want you to tell me everything! Where am I?? Why has Alexander note yet?? What happened at the columbarium?? I want to go back!!!! Cant you understand that?? Amelia was so angry that Travis had refused to say anything to her and she was getting so fed up with all these. She was almost healed aside from the constant headaches and sneezing and the feeling of nausea at times! Aside that, she could walk on her own but not for too long because of how long she had being hospitalized. I said Ill tell you everything at the right time, since you woke up yesterday, youve being throwing these questions at me! Cmon Amy. Im human too! Travis said as he ced the bowl of porridge on the table which she gave refuse to eat. Amelia knew that he was the one who had saved her and the.. Yes wheres that boy we rescued??! Travis raised a brow in displeasureAnother question..! Little Evil Being Amelia raised a brow at Travis in utter displeasure cant I even ask that??! Travis rolled his eyes at her thankfully we saved him that day! Hes the son of the senator! he ran away from home to put some flowers in his mothers grave without the security men knowing! Travis stood up from the bed with a disgusted face kids of nowadays So spoilt rotten! Amelia just stared at him as if she was looking at a fool Thats nice though so hes back home! And Im still here stuck with a moron! Hey dont call me a moron! Im not a morone to think of it! Youre being ungrateful! Amelia scoffed at him Thank you for helping us out of the ming building! So can you take me back home now!? Whyre you so eager to go home?? Travis asked sarcastically as he walked towards a couch and made himselffortable there. Youre a lonely dog so I dont have any expectations of you understanding anything Im going to say! Amelia retorted and Traviss face flushed red. You didnt have to add that! It wasntpulsory you know Travis felt hurt by her words as he feigned a tearing face and Amelia felt amused before she sighed calmly. her tone low and serious Look Travis.. Im just saying this because if Alexander ever finds out Im with you. trust me, it wont end well for you! So its only best you let me go now Amelia said calmly, her heart tightened as she thought of Alexander.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. Was he sad now?? Does he even miss her!?? Does he think of her?? Has he forgotten all about her and moved on with Ash moon?? Amelia shrug those thoughts as she wanted to know by herself and for her to do that, she had to get out of here! Travis sighed deeply I would have let you go back. but the fight between the Alphas and Red kings are still on and I dont want you to get hurt! Travis said calmly as he looked at her deeply. Wondering why he didnt meet her first before Alexander.. If he wanted to get married, he wanted a woman like Amelia! Amelia remained silent for a while before asking slowly where are we now!?? Travis didnt hide it from her as he said Los angelus, America! Amelia widened her eyes as she looked at Travis so far from my husband! She didnt know when she muttered out those words. If Travis said he didnt feel hurt when he heard her words, he was the biggest liar on earth. Even when she woke up, the first person she had asked of was Alexander. Even in her subconscious mind, It was filled with Alexander Alexander! Alexander!! Alexander!!! Alexander was everywhere! Travis bit his lower lip and said calmly Do you really want to go back!?? He already guessed her answers but he really wish to hear something else like she wanted to stay even if it was for a little bit. He respected the fact that she was married but he couldnt help it. This heart of his was so stupid! But he wasnt going to force himself on her, she has the final say! Travis. I appreciate all youve done for me but.. I really do want to go back home! This is not my home, this is not where I belong. Amelia said Alexander is my home and I want to go back to him! Travis swallowed the lump on his throat as he nodded calmly but his heart was in turmoil. Well it was all for the better! He should better go get a life for himself! Okay if you say so! I will prepare thetest flight for you by tomorrow because you have to go for treatment at the hospital! With that said, Travis got up of the couch and pointed at the bowl of cold porridge Ill go reheat this for you, And be sure to eat every bit of the porridge to help replenish some energy! He took the bowl of porridge and walked out Amelia nodded as she watched Travis walk out, he was close to the door when she slowly called out to him thank you Travis! Travis stood rooted close to the door before turning to face her, he wore a sad smile Youre always weed! And before I forget, I have some documents to hand over to youter. With that said, Travis exited the room, leaving Amelia confused about which document he was referring to. Amelia felt both nervous and expectant at the same time! How was she going to face Alexander now?? She let out a mouthful of air as she slumped on the bed, she looked at herself before groaning and gripped her pillow tightly. . Europe Easternnd Alexander was sitting on his chair in his study looking fresh as he just came out of his room after taking a shower. His anger had subsided a little bit after almost killing Ghost in the field. His eyes were cold as he sat there, he just received a call from the men his father had sent to search and track down Knight Cyrus, and he was spotted close to the ck Sea.. He had made preparations to invade his territory. He made a call to Phoenix Any information from mahogany?? Phoenix sharp voice came from the other side she had wanted to confess today but I wanted to go visit her two days from now. do you want me to go over now?? Alexanders eyes constricted before letting out Do that and if she doesnt say anything meaningful Slit her throat! Phoenix immediatelyplied and ended the call, ready to go to the catalyst web. After ending the call, Alexander called the doctor, mr Walker about the results from the autopsy test. Good day mr Walker, I need you at my house ASAP with the autopsy results Alexander immediately went straight to the point, he felt as if he was dying things, he wanted to get this done and over with. Mr walkers protesting voice came from the other end Alex i - He didnt get toplete his statement when the call was hung up by Alexander. Mr Walker dropped the phone on the table while cursing at Alexander under his breath That little devil. His eyes roamed around the table, he was working on a new form for a disease he discovered and now he was interrupted by that little evil being But he knew the results were confidential so he immediately stood up to get the results. As he searched through the locker his eyes fell on the file facing him inside the locker.. I’m Mahogany!! Alexander opened the door of his study room and walked out before closing it behind him. He directly walk towards the stairs and descended the stairs and came across the new head maid, Chantel. Inform me when the doctores around! With that said, he directly walked out and headed to the vi at the back. Hiss Ghost hissed in pain as the little maid applied medicine in his wounds, his face were covered in bruises. His body aches as if he was made to uproot a huge mountain. He felt like dying as the pain was too much for him to bear. Done sir dont stress the wounds so it wont tear again the maid said as she blushed, her eyes lingered on ghosts bare chest that was opened for her eyes to feed on. Ghost nodded at the young girl who looked cute with that red face and he knitted his brows while a small smirk disyed on his face as he watched the maid scurrying away like a little rabbit. Cute he muttered under his breath. My maid is now cute??.. Ghost immediately shivered at that voice, the room suddenly felt tense as he watched his master walk into the room. He jerked off the bed forgetting he was injured few minutes ago and warned not to stress the wounds. Arghh! He hissed in pain as he quickly bit on his lower lip to suppress the pain. Alexander didnt change expression seeing him in pain, he was numb to feel anything and moreover, ghost was just a subordinate to him. He sat on the couch opposite the bed and Ghost stood close to the bed without daring to seat while his master was sitting. Sir ghost bowed respectfully and there came a very cold reply from Alexander Sit! As fast as lightening, ghost immediatelyplied as he sat on the bed but this time, he didnt repeat same mistake as he sat slowly and started to dress properly as he buttoned up his shirt. Alexander sat with crossed legs while litting up a cigarette in his hand and dragged from it. After buttoning his shirt, ghost sat with head down without meeting Alexanders gaze, the smoke from Alexanders cigarette whiff around his nostril. Tell me exactly what happened at the columbarium that day?? The details of everyone you guys met that very day?? What you suspected and everything suspicious that day! Alexander asked as he had to get to the root of this matter. Ghost swallowed as he nodded in understanding Yes.. Ghost began with what happened that day without leaving anything out. Alexanders gaze turn cold and colder and it became freezing cold as ghost narrated what happened that day and how they met Travis Giovanni whacker that very day it happened. Catalyst web Mahogany snapped her head towards the direction the sound came from, it seems someone finally came . I said Im ready to talk, just hear me out! Mahogany called out to whomever was at the door and she was startled when she felt a lingering presence in front of her. Thats what I came to clear! The voice said and mahogany felt shocked. She didnt even hear any footsteps! Was this man a ghost?? He had no presence ..! The voice came again as he instructed take her out for now! Phoenix instructed twenty five and twenty who immediately came to the room. Phoenix walked out and allowed the men do the work, mahogany was so relieved that she could finally see the outside world. Inside a room where there was only a small light at the top, every other part of the room was still dark, the only lit ce was where the wooden table and two chairs was, the light was dim and just focusing on the table and resting on the faces of the two people around the table. Phoenix sat facing Mahogany with a piercing gaze, waiting for her to start talking. Mahoganys eyes roamed around the table as she cleared her throat to talk. But nothing came out of her mouth and Phoenix raised a brow at her in disgust. he dropped his phone on the table after turning on the recorder.. When did you start working for knight Cyrus?? Phoenix asked instead in case she didnt know where to start from. Mahogany said calmly with resolve Since I was a child! Phoenixs gaze immediately turn cold seems like you want to toy with me then its fine! you can go back to your bed! Mahogany frowned deeply Im saying the truth, we both grew up together and Ive always loved him but I cant say the same about him!All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Phoenix felt something was amiss as he gazed at the olddy with knitted brows. Her jaw was full and the wrinkles on her face were so obvious and dropping, how the hell did she grow up with knight Cyrus who was just twenty four years old. When did you say you started working for knight?? Phoenix asked incredulously and Mahogany swallowed hard and replied. I said I started working for knight when I was little, he was like my childhood sweetheart, we grew up together! Ughh.. Phoenix rxed his back on the chair with aplicated face, staring at mahogany like a fool. Mahogany sighed I know you wont believe what I say and I totally understand you I mean, who wouldnt with this face of mine?? Gosh Im so stupid! Can-can you just cut the chase and say something more meaningful and sensible olddy??! Phoenix was getting so impatient and frustrated with this whole thing. Mahogany was quiet for a while I did everything for knight but he only brainwashed me he said if I was toe into the Ron family and pass him informations about Alexanders whereabouts and dealings, he might consider settling down with me! Phoenix bit his lower lip and barged the table in anger you took care of Alexander and his brother, Maverick since they were little! How can you love a small boy like Knight?? Did you think he would settle for a grandma??! Thats it. Mahogany shouted as tears swelled up in her eyes this-this is not me! Im not Mrs Gale, Im mahogany and I didnt take care of Alexander or Maverick, they were both taken care of by Mrs Gale. Im-a young girl of neen years old! Mahogany choked on her tears as she revealed it, tears gushing out like a dam that was burst open. and her wrinkled and old looking face squeezed even more. Phoenixs face was nd at the moment too stunned to talk, his eyesnding in his cellphone that was recording the whole conversation.. What-what does that mean???!! Surgery Whats that suppose to mean??Phoenix asked as he sat back on his chair, his gaze not leaving Mahoganys body. Mahogany rested back in the chair as her eyes dimmed and she parted her lips It all started three years ago! I was only seventeen at the time when I was approached by knight he was aware of the fact that I had feelings for him and he even rejected me several times when I tried to woo him!mahogany shook her head as her eyes turn red I had dreams! I had a life to live.. and everything I nned for myself and the way I pictured my future knight was always in it! Mahogany let out a self mockingugh and continued I was surprised the day he came to my apartment and decided to have a talk with me!Material ? N?velDrama.Org. Phoenix listened with rapt attention with both hands folded in his chest, he just couldnt believe all he was hearing right now.! He told me about his mortal enemy which I already know of since his father and grandfather had a huge grudge against the alphas and my family always had this close rtionship with The Cyrus family, so I knew and because of the love I started to develop for knight, I also considered Alexander Ron my enemy! Mahogany sighed he told me toe into the Rons house to help him collect valid information for him and if I was toe out alive, we will try out a rtionship,, a romantic one at that and the naive me. Mahogany scoffed at herself I fell for it and epted the terms! Phoenix cleared his throat and how does all these rte to Mrs Gale if you arent Mrs Gale. then howe you look like her and talk like her and all?? This was the major question bugging him right now. Surgery! The words rolled out of mahoganys lip as she had a stoic face on and Phoenix was for once speechless. Im a dummy right?? At the highest level! Phoenix replied calmly and mahoganyughed at herself who allowed knight to make use of her like a wasted puppet with no value. I was so stupid to have agreed, I agreed to undergo surgery to have this body and my vocal cord was tempered with that I had her voice, I never thought this things exist and can even be changed but knight is so powerful to do all these! Mahogany said I was like this for a whole two years and half, I havent entered the Rons mansion because ording to Knight, it wasnt the right time yet! he assured me that after this was over, he would have me undergo another surgery to transform into a younger version of me, a very beautiful one at that! Youre such a big fool! Phoenix said exasperatedly as he looked at Mahogany in utter disbelief. Not until the day I spotted a girl named Ash moon at our territory, I immediately recognized her as Alexanders childhood friend because I had run a background check on Alexander and every one around him and knight had also fed me with the necessary informations, about whom I should be wary of and be close with! I knew about that whole cemetery n! Phoenix creased his brows as he tried to remember and he immediately realize mahogany was talking about the day Alexanders warehouse was intruded and several of their men were killed and Amelia was injured by the green level assassins from square silencer assassins! And ording to head maid Chantel, Mrs Gale was instructed by Alexander to go get some blood supplements and energy reviving food for Amelia who had lost arge amount of blood. So what then happened?? Though Phoenix had gotten a rough idea, he just wanted to be sure and let the wordse out of the bulls mouth. She was abducted by knight on her way back from the mall after getting the things and I reced her and came to the mansion at Easternnd, I dont know if Mrs Gale is still alive or not as all I focused on was the mission and how it should quickly end so I can go start a rtionship with knightmahogany revealed it and Phoenix smirked. I dont know what went wrong but I wasnt contacted by Knight from the day Amelia went to the columbarium, I only have a rough idea of what will happen that day and I knew that knight was going to pull something big that day! I never knew I would be abandoned in the middle of all these shits! Mahogany shook his head at herself Tsk tsk tsk I should have known better! Yes you should have known better that if he had truly loved you and had you in his heart, he wouldnt send you to the mouth of a devouring lion! He knew your life would be at stake if something goes wrong but he still insisted in you going and who leaves a woman they love looking ugly and wrinkled for two years and half?? He was only making a cold mockery of you! Mahoganys eyes shrieked as she bit her lower lip as she began to reason with Phoenix Ive turn a new leaf now! Please let me go! I wont be in contact with knight any longer! Mahogany pleaded I want to go back to college! Phoenix smirked and grabbed his phone before standing up dont get too over excited now! We still need you here but not to worry, you will be treated fairly! Mahogany tried to chase after him but her both hands and legs that was bond to the chair wasnt letting her. Phoenix walked out of the room as his eyes shed as he pressed the send button to Alexander. After sending the recording, he dipped his phone into his pants pocket and walked out in long strides while mahogany was taken to another room that was lit this time around and hadfortable bed. It seems she was in a room arrest instead but she was a bit relieved, Atleast she wasnt staying in that hell hole anymore. That would do! ^^Easternnd..^^ After getting all the necessary information from ghost, Alexanders face was so unsightly as he walked out of the vi and Chantel approached him while keeping a safe distance from him. Sir the doctor just arrived and hes in the sitting room now! Alexander made a tight fist to harden his heart for what wasing next okay, then get out of my sight! Yes-yes sir- Chantel immediately scurried away as Alexander made heavy steps to the sitting to meet up with the doctor. His heart in his throat! Waiting for the unknown!! Unscathed Alexander just stood close to his table in his study room with a nk expression, his hand gripping the paper tightly. Veins popping in his forehead, eyes cold and dark. His deadly aura became so strong that one might suffocate if they spend too much time there. After handing the result of the autopsy test, Mr Walker had quickly left before Alexander read the report. Alexander didnt know how to react, his eyes devoid of any emotions as his chest tightened in pain. His breathing hitched as he felt an extreme pain in his chest area and he couldnt help but hold that ce. He let out a painful groan as he bend from the chair,nding on the bare floor of the study room. His hair were rough and not well maintained, a small mustache growing and hairs were on his jaw. He looked so slim and thinner from before, he had really over exhausted his body both physically and mentally. He hadnt rest for a single moment since Amelia died, he made sure to uncover everything and make everyone pay. When he heard the results were out, he couldnt bear to look at it and now that he had seen it He felt devastated! In anguish pain, his head spinning and his chest aching as if someone was pricking his heart with a needle. It was a suffocating pain that left him groaning for a long time as he sat on the floor, his shirt buttons were undone. He looked like a lonely soul there as he sat down, he really needed someforts now. He was never this weak! He didnt need anyone before but not now! Amelia had brought this human side out and make him meek, she made him feel things he never thought he would and now that he was sad.. she wasnt there to soothe him. Youre so wicked Amy!! He muttered as his eyes turn red, missing her warm touch on his skin. His eyes fell on the paper again and there was a very bold Negative there. Amelia isnt dead! She wasnt that corpse they found! She was still alive and ording to ghost, Travis was there too and the other people who were trapped in the columbarium that day had stated that Amelia and Travis went to hack theputer upstairs. Everybody came out except his wife and.. Travis Giovanni Whacker! Alexander gritted his teeth as he swallowed hard, inhaling deeply to bear with the chest pain, he stretched his hand to thest locker in his table and brought out a white bottle of pills. He took three pills and swallowed them with water on the table. He stood up slowly as he sat back on his chair, his jaws clenched in order to bear with the ache. He grabbed his phone and dialed Mr Whackers number. Soon it was answered and the old mans voice came from the other end Yes-Alexander! Alexanders eyes turn dark as he said with sharp tone Wheres that son of yours?? Mr whacker wreaked his nose in utter displeasure dont use that tone on me boy! I Said wheres your fucking son!!! Alexander immediately thundered as his veins were already so visible, his ear and nose were red as his eyes was covered in mist, anger evident in his tone. Mr whacker immediately frown, this was serious so he swallowed his pride because he couldnt bear to go against the Don. He said trying to sound calm and elderly Hes not in the country now! he went on a business trip! Alexanders gripped the phone tightly as he slowly gritted out these words Where did he go?? Are you aware that he visited the columbarium that day! Mr whacker was already so confused what columbarium?? The one that caught fire thest week?? Alexander swallowed down some anger but that didnt suppress his hatred He met with my wife that day and they both work together to rescue the people and it was just proven that the corpse found is not my wife, Amelia, and she is nowhere to be found and your son.. Is out of the country, what a coincidence huh?? Mr whacker felt something fell on his head as he shook Unsteadily, he quickly sat on the arm chair close by, joining the pieces together. Was that the reason Traviss phone was out of reach the whole time?? He was with Alexanders wife?? Alexander-my son-calm down. Ill talk some senses into him right away mr whacker immediately begged for Traviss life, wondering if Travis would be the death of him. Please stay low for now, I promise you this. your wife would be back before you know it please.! Alexanders eyes was not at all friendly It will profit him a lot if my wife remains unscathed and intact. Even if its just a strand of her hair that your damn son plucked out his head would be hung in a pole to let the vultures feed on! Take it as a promise! Alexander meant every words he said and that, mr whacker was aware of. Yes-yes yes Ill make sure of that please! Mr whacker immediately apologized andplied with Alexanders words. Alexander only gave mr whacker some face because they had a very strong rtionship and they were the second inmand after the Alpha gang. And mr whacker and His dad, Lorraine Ron, are close and childhood friends who grew up together. But he knew he was ready to break that rtionship if Travis was to do anything stupid to his wife. Alexander ended the call and his eyes caught the recording from Phoenix and he immediately tapped on it to y it. Was it anger he felt?? Or amusement?? Alexander was smirking when he heard the confession, wasnt Knight too good! Ah thats to say, Mrs Gale was held captive by knight while the neen year old -Wrinkled body woman, named mahogany and little Lolita was held captive by him. It was a wise decision that Phoenix kept her close and she was really good as a pawn.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. A really good pawn She allowed her life to be controlled, then Alexander was ready to use her also. But for now. Ameliaes first! With that thought, he began to dial some series of number. Flight In a blink of an eye, it was morning time and Alexander slowly got up from the bed with a calm face. His eyes were covered in dark ring, he hadnt had enough sleep. He sighed and went to the bathroom to wash up and he came down for breakfast but immediately lost his appetite on getting to the table. He went upstairs without a word and got dressed, heading to his office. He hade to a conclusionst night to immerse himself in a lot of work to distract his mind from the gnawing problems of life. His father had calledst night and told him to be a bit patient with mr whacker. He understood his father and decided to give them forty eight hours to bring back his wife or Atleast tell him the state of his wife at the moment and if she was okay. He grabbed his bag and sat himself in the Bugatti chair and the driver drove out of thepound. Los Angelos Walking out of the hospital, Amelia sighed as she gripped the bag tightly, she was wearing a trouser and a shirt, a ck jacket to match. She was finally done with thest treatment and the doctor had told her that she was fine now but still has to continue with her drugs for aplete recovery.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Travis was just behind her as he watched the girl walk to where their car was parked, his face solemn. From the bright smile on Amelias face and the way she was humming shows how happy she was as she would be leaving for Europe this evening. His father had called him earlier and warned him seriously over the phone that he should quickly bring Amelia back home both safe and sound. That Alexander had found out about them. Travis was already so angry that Alexander had the guts to be disrespectful towards his dad. He had that angry look as he drove them both to the vi they were upying. Amelia didnt even bother with him as the only thoughts on her mind right now was how she was gonna meet Alexander again. At the thought of that, she grabbed her new phone Travis bought for her and browsed the inte. Sure enough, the Rons group were top search as they hit a major market price and their worth was making everyone shudder. She connected her phone to her earphones as she watched a video of Alexander. There was a video of Alexander in an interview with some journalists who were asking him some questions about his tactics in business and his n for his business and all. The world doesnt know about her rtionship with Alexander as they havent exposed it. Since the whole thing started from her getting sold to him and they had a contract before they started catching feelings for themselves. they didnt even get the chance to make it real when tragedy struck. Amelia felt pained as her eyes watched his mouth, her eyes trailed down to his thin silhouette. Hes so thin! Amelia muttered under her breath as she felt something bloom within her, was that a sign that he had truly missed her to the extent that he lost weight?? Travis turn to look at her when he heard a sound from her as if she was talking You were saying something?? Umm No-Its nothing! Amelia quickly turn off the screen of her phone and looked out of the window to cover up her expression. Travis didnt bother with her anymore as he focused on the road. Amelias mind was still on the man she saw few minutes ago, her heart was seriously beating real hard, those feeling. She immediately knew that that strong feeling she had for him was still there, still there growing into a massive tree in the pit of her heart. Amelia sighed in her heart as she remembered his look in the interview, others might not know or realize it but she knew. he doesnt look fine at all. He was much more thinner than before, though he wasnt fat or fleshy before but now, he was much more worst than before. He wasnt as handsome as he was before with those curly hairs that looked somehow disheveled. His eyes looked so empty as he answered the womans questions. There was this weak look in his eyes that made her heart bleed for him, she felt somehow guilty that she wasnt there to help him, to help soothe him. Just as they arrived the entrance of the vi, Amelia hurriedly ced her hand on the door handle to open it with full speed. She just wanted to quickly go up to her room and pack up her things for the evening flight that would take off by 8pm. Just then, her other hand was held by Traviss hand. Amelia snapped her head at Travis with a questioning gaze with a whats the matter with you look on her face. Travis sighed I just wanted to inform you about something Amelia let go of the handle of the door and paid rapt attention to what Travis was gonna say. Travis cleared his throat and opened the dashboard in his car and brought out a file This is a gift from the senator you saved his son, he asked me to give this to you as a gift of appreciation, he also dropped his personal card for you to reach him! Taking the file, Amelia eyes looked at it confusingly But you know we both saved the child, if not for you calling some back up men toe over through the back door, we wouldnt have survived the fire! So I think this should go to you! Travis shook his head no! You were the one who had run to save the child and remember, I kicked against the idea but you are too good so you saved that child, so that is a reward for your efforts! Travis nodded at Amelia to open the file which she did without another word. Gasp Amelia gasped in shocked as she continue reading the words in the file A-a multi million Dors Mall, a SUV Benz and a Cheque of Eight million dors!!!!!???? A Person’s Greatest Downfall Just for me?? This is too much! No Im definitely not taking this! Amelia said as she dropped the file on herp, her palm sweaty as she felt the temperature of the car decreasing. Travis smiled at her reaction You dont have to be so emotional right now, I bet Alexander gave you more than these! Travis said with raised brow and Amelia suddenly smiled all of a sudden. Her smile was wide as she thought of her closet, she was finally going to see her closet and her husbands panther dog. Her face turn so red when she suddenly remembered how her towel fell off her body that day!! So embarrassing! Seeing that cheeky expression on her face, Travis felt the urge to rub her cheek but he dare not as he remembered his fathers words. Dare to touch her, and youll be so dead Travis Whacker!! Remembering those familiar lines, his eyes darkened as he turn serious, he really wished she could leave now so he wont go against his principles. Just take it, I was also rewarded though! Travis said tly and Amelia nodded in understanding. Travis turn to look at her as she ced the files back in the document, she made a mental note to sign themter after talking with the senator, thankfully he was sensible to drop his personal number. Bad news! Travis suddenly broke the short silence and That got Amelias attention again. What bad news?? Amelia asked. I got information that your dad was killed by his wife, marion and news had it that Jolie is the daughter of their butler and that Your dad went bankrupt in one night. strange ! Travis muttered out thest part but Amelia still caught it. Amelias expression didnt change as she only fell in deep thoughts. Bankrupted in one night?? Interesting. She could smell something yed there.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. It wasnt so simple. Well thats actually good news, thanks for telling me! Im off to go get my things packed now! With that said, Amelia got down from the car and went inside her room to do some packing. Travis remained in The car for a while before he finally walked out. Amelia was literally humming as she was throwing the few clothes Travis had bought for her on her bed. She wasnt an ingrate! She knew all that Travis had sacrificed for her and she was grateful, she just wanted to quickly leave because she didnt want him to feel burdened by her. So she used hermon sense to decide to leave, to her man. Amelia smiled widely after throwing all the clothes on the bed, ready to fold them but then again, she sighed Toozy to do that! She grumbled as she sluggishly start to open the portable luggage to fold her clothes into it. After packing the small things needed, the luggage was so light and not heavy. She walked downstairs after packing, she went downstairs to have lunch. After having her full, she went to her room again to go have some sleep, she raised a brow when she didnt see Travis around but she didnt think much of it and went to her room. She decided to sleep till it was about seven pm so she could prepare for her trip. Amelia ced an earphone on her ear as she listened to some cool music and she slowly dozed off in that position. Europe Alexander dragged on his tie as he threw his bag on the chair close by. that day was so hectic for him as he had to go some some damn interviews. He seriously wished he could pass that but what to do! He took off his shirt and gazed at himself in the mirror before sighing Men I have to shave off these mustache now! Damn I look like a moron! Alexander muttered as he directly went to the bathroom, naked. For some reasons, his body was feeling weird as if anticipating something. He thought that it was because of his n to go over to find his wife in los Angelos if Travis failed to bring her. After shaving the hair on his jaw and the mustache, he walked to the shower for a hot bath. He let the hot water wash his skin as they turn red under it heat. His hair was wet as some glued to his face, his broad back was soaked as water trail down from his chest to his waistline before going down. After taking his bath, he wore a ck loose pajama set and sat on the edge of his bed and his face looked well contoured as the mustache has being shaved. He held hisptop to send some files to Sam and deal with some paperworks. After doing some few works, he texted George to that their firearms would be arriving at the shore in three days, so he should organize some few men to carry the goods and ship it to their warehouse. He just got an offer to transfer firearms to a new military camp set up by the government. This goods were worth billions of dors so he couldnt afford for anything to go wrong at the point when he wants to im it. After making the preparations, he dropped theptop and went to downstairs and grab a bottle of wine from the wine cer and a ss cup. He directly went back to his room and sat on the couch. He opened the bottle of strong wine and poured himself a small quantity into the ss, he dropped the bottle and brought the ss close to his lip and took a mouthful. Hmm alexander acknowledged the wine as he poured a total amount of wine in his ss again. He looked at the time, it was already midnight. So fast! Alexander pouted his small and thin lips. Slowly, he was already tipsy after emptying the bottle of wine, his shirts bottom was loose, he didnt even notice his phone vibrating In The table. It rang twice but he was already drunk to a stupor to notice. His chest raising heavily as he slump in the chair, his eyes tightly shut. Crack His bedroom door slowly open and a figure walk in, in slow steps. The figure spotted Alexander on the couch and it slowly walked towards him. Alexander was at his lowest which could also be considered a persons greatest downfall.. The figure looked at him with red eyes and Alexander was just there with head facing the ceiling, eyes shut tight and the figure looked at him deeply. Spank Her Amelia gazed at the man on the chair and she sighed deeply. She felt a pang in her heart as she looked at the empty bottle of wine, did he have to get himself drunk in order to sleep?? Landing her eyes on his stomach, it was so thin and t. Guess he didnt even eat dinner Amelia thought as she felt remorseful, she should have not be injured so seriously, she should have woken up froma early, she shouldnt have wasted time. Amelia raised her hand slowly to touch his face, she was so slow so as not to wake him up. Her hand was about to touch his hair when a tight grip held her hand and she let out a gasp. Amelia widen her eyes as she saw the man open his eyes slowly and they both locked gazes. Alexander was just looking at the face close to his face, His brows were joined in a frown. Why-why do you look like my wife?? Alexander asked with his eyes half opened and half closed. A bit tipsy. Amelia tried to free her hand from his grip but his grip was so tight on her. You suddenlye in here with my wifes face and barge into my room! Alexander said slowly as he stared hard at her before a smile rece his face. Amelia was not having any of this anymore as she said Mr Alexander Frog! Can you get your hands off me??!! Alexander Frog!! Alexander immediately snapped his eyes open to take in who was standing before him. When he heard that Alexander Frog! He immediately remember who always referred to him as frog, If it was not Ron Bastard, it would be Alexander Frog! And the only person that calls him those weird names was Amelia. Alexander kept staring at Amelia with wide eyes, he didnt even know when his hand slip and let go of her hand. The room was dark and it was as if time stopped. Alexander was sitting on the couch with Amelia between his legs as she was in a bending position, as she scanned him. Am-Amy?? Alexander let out a low question, unsure of who he was seeing, He didnt blink even for a second, afraid that she might disappear if he blinked for a moment. Was he hallucinating right now?? Alexander slowly imitated what Amelia always did as he used his finger to pitch his arm and it tinge. Surprisingly, Amelia was still there gazing at him. Amelia sighed and took two steps back and Alexander immediately held her hand with a tight grip. Afraid she might leave him again. His eyes carried a lot of emotions as he stood up, his drunk state had wear off a bit. He held Amelias hand and his eyes kept looking at her with a pained expression that he had to bite his lower lip. Amelia was so emotional at the moment as she stared at her husband who she hadnt seen for weeks now. They had made promises to each other! To be safe and be with each other but she broke the promise. She used her other hand to hold his face and let him hold the other hand. She kept looking at him with a loving gaze but just then, Alexs Expression changed as he grabbed her other hand and held the two together and turn their position around. Amelia was stupefied for a while, not knowing what he was up to this time around. Alexander knew he was being immature now but he had to rify this. He sat Amelia on the chair he was sitting on previously and lean on her, as he asked under gritted teeth. To be sure you are truly Amelia and you didnt undergo a stic surgery like Mahogany.. What was thest thing I told you before you left home?? Alexander searched her eyes for answers. He had asked to be sure nobody had impersonated Amelia just as knight had mahogany impersonate Mrs Gale. But within him, he really wished this was the real Amelia, because he had a lot to do with that woman. A lot! Amelia rolled her eyes at him but he knew that he was only being cautious. She didnt even know about this mahogany he was talking about. Nobody was to be trusted anymore. Amelia released her grip from Alexander hand in full speed and dragged on his hair and Alexander was speechless when Amelia smashed her lips on his. It happened so fast.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. For some reason, he didnt retaliate and he didnt know why. He was always weak against Amelia and couldnt resist her. If it was someone else, he would have immediately defend himself when she was about to hold his head. But he didnt retaliate knowing fully well what she wanted to do, he had wanted her to kiss him. He remember the familiar feeling he felt whenever Amelia asked him to lean down so she could whisper in his ears. And she would hold his head tightly, this feeling was also the same. Amelia let go off his lip as she looked into his dreamy eyes and she scoffed loudly Shame on you! You cant even identity your wife! Alexander blinked numerous times as he was just looking at her. He didnt know what to say, should he just swallow his pride and beg her to kiss him again?? He wanted her lips on his again. Well you told me we had a long talk by evening before I left for the columbarium and Ill tell you the secret you told me. Youre the owner of SSA, Thats Square silencer Assassins! That. That was the only prove needed, Nobody knew his other business except Phoenix, Sly, Ghost, Twenty five, Himself and Amelia. Not even twelve or twenty and the others knew about it. His mother doesnt even know talk more of his dad. Amelia knew it. Alexander immediately dragged Amelia out of the chair and Amelia yelled Can you be a little gentle?? Pah Alexander spank her ass softly with a frown You broke a promise! where have you being?? Did you know you almost killed me of hypertension?? Huh!!! Amelia was just gawking at him speechlessly Where was she supposed to start?? Won’t Make Promises Im sorry about that but you know my ass really hurts now! Amelia pouted and Alexander ced his hand on her round and lifted ass and she gasped when Alexander helped her massage it. Youve be a pervert after a little while of me not being around! Amelia teased him but his expression dropped. Alexander had that dejected look on his face and Amelias smile dropped as she twitched her lips. Amelia. Im sorry! I failed you I know and I couldnt protect you from Knight! I caused you lots of harm. Alexander trailed off as he let go off Amelia and dropped his head in shame. He couldnt bring his gaze back on Amelia as he looked remorseful Im sorry, I cant do much for you! I dont deserve you Amy and dont worry! About the contract.. Ill cancel it and pay for breaching the contract and Ill immediately send you the mone- Alexander didntplete his words when Amelia dragged him again and this time, she had both hands on his cor, gripping it so tight. She gripped them tightly as she pressed her lips on Alexanders lip, her kiss was so rough and fierce as if trying to hide how hurt she was by his words. She bite his lips and he groan in both pain and pleasure. He didnt understand why she was so fierce with him. Amelia bite some parts of his lips in anger and when she tasted blood from his lip, she let go off him while panting hard. Alexander smirked as he used his finger thumb to clean the blood on his lip as his eyes rested on the girl who was staring or rather, ring at him. He was immediately amused, something washed over him. He was suddenly excited as he watched her re at him with those fierce gazes. I really missed those res! Alexander grinned as he tried to walk toward her but she pushed him with her palms but he held those hands with a roguish smile on his face. Let go off me! You fool! Amelia tried to yanked her hands off his grip but he still had that roguish and teasing smile on, which really irked her. Can you just stop smiling like that??! Amelia rolled her eyes in utter disbelief and Alexander imitated her and also rolled his eyes. Amelia was immediately at a loss for what to do! She had thought of different scenarios of how their first encounter would be! She had pictured a very emotional scenes like him hugging her till she felt breathless or they both shedding tears in both pain and joy of finally meeting but never had she imagined him to act like this. He was so childish! Alexander was just looking at her deeply, she looked lost in thoughts which made him displeased. Heyy you should be focusing on me right now! What are you thinking about??! Alexander said as he released her hands and used both hands to drag her to himself.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Amelia gritted her teeth let go off me Alexander, didnt you say you dont want me earlier?? Fine! Then Im leaving! Amelia broke free from his grip and turn to leave but Alexander immediately held her hand when she reached the door. Amelia was already fuming, He said he would pay her off, like seriously??!! Didnt he even feel anything towards her??! He said he didnt want her anymore!! Alexander felt her shudder under his touch and he knew that those feelings were still alive and he wanted her. Let-go Alexander! Amelia said with shaky tone as she didnt want to break down in front of him. She had hastily left Traviss vi to meet him and what he tells her was that he wasnt sure if he could protect or do much for her! Amelia. Alexanders voice came low and hoarse as if talking to a priceless gem, his tone soft and melodious to the ears. Amelias anger cooled off a little bit but she was still sulking. Alexander turn her towards him as he watched her bend her head, facing the ground. He held her chin and lean onto her and said with a charming voice, his face serious as if dering his intention Amelia, I dont only Want you in my life I need you Amy! more than you know of! Amelia slowly raised her gaze to meet his and he nodded at her and used his thumb finger to caress her cheek. His eyes searching hers Ive being like a floating ballon the day you werent found and I thought Alexander swallowed hard as his eyes turn pitch red as he was struggling inside of him. I thought-Id lost you Amy!. It wasnt easy for me! I felt pained that I let you suffer such pain when I had made a promise to protect you. Im sorry thest line came out as a whisper as his eyes shone and kept looking at her. not daring to avert his gaze. Amelia felt all manner of things happening to her body that period, it was as if time slowed down for them to enjoy this moment. Her belly was swelling as she felt lots of butterflies in the depth of her stomach. Her eyes swelled up in tears, she didnt even know when she started sniffing in her tears. Seeing those red eyes, Alexander sighed Argh! Thats okay! Dont-dont cry dear! Alexander immediately wiped her tears as he shook his head at her not to cry. Amelia was never this soft as she immediately took quick steps and wrapped both arms around Alexanders waist as she buried her head into his broad and familiar chest that was like her littlefort zone. She kept sniffing in her snot as she allowed tears poured out of her eyes I missed you a lot Alex. Please dont say you dont want me anymore! I dont want this to ever end Alex!! Please Alexander hugged her more as he felt regretful for saying that earlier I wont, I wont make promises to you Amelia but believe me when I say I wont be far from you from now on!! Im sorry Amy! Alexander kissed the top of her head and held her close to him. History Would Repeat Itself Pulling away from the embrace, Amelia sniffed before clearing her throat, her eyes a little bit misty. Alexander took in all her expression as he watched her closely. You didnt have dinner right?? Amelia asked as she stared at him. Alexander swallowed before nodding with a low hmm that came out from deep his throat. Amelia nodded what about Mrs Gale? Whatever,e downstairs lets have dinner together! Alex nodded without a word and followed her downstairs,ter hell feed her with all the recent happenings but for now, she should rx herself for she just came back to him. He didnt want her head to be filled with negativities. Amelia opened the door and walked out of the room with Alexander behind her, he allowed her hold his hand and led him down the stairs. The sitting room was quiet which made Amelia twitched her brows. But she didnt say anything and led him directly to the dining room, coincidentally, Chantel walked out from her room. Chantel gasped in shock when she saw Amelia.Maam?? Amelia gazed at her before sitting close to Alexander, Alexander wasnt looking at the maids direction, his gaze on Amelia. He instructed the maid while still looking at Amelia Serve dinner in three minutes! Chantel immediately recovered from her shock and bowed Yes sir! With that, she ran along to the kitchen to serve them dinner. Amelia met Alexanders gaze and she chuckled Im not going anywhere, why staring at me so intently?? She teased and Alexander smiled as he turn to face her more. Amelia was suddenly shy under his watchful gaze that seems meaningful. Dont wanna ask me how I got to your room at the first ce?? Amelia asked and Alexander slowly nodded. He was wanting to ask her this question. Well, I got down from the ne few hours ago and I came directly towards your house butter changed my mind and went to meet Liam first who brought me pass the securities because I had known that if I hade alone, the guys might alert you, which would intrude the surprise I was nning but it just so happened.. On getting to your room, you were wasted! Im truly sorry you had to see me in such state! Alexander apologized. Hmm I observed something else. you start smoking! Huh?? Amelia asked meaningfully and Alexander cleared his throat and scratch the back of his head. Ehh that. I promise to stop! Well forget about it, tell me. what about Mrs Gale?? Amelia asked and as well, the panther dog?? Alexander chuckled and held her hand dont worry about that for now! Lets eat! Chantel brought the food and ced them on the table, it consist of various dishes. Wee madam! Chantel bowed with a wide smile on her face and Amelia smiled back at her. Chantel immediately scurried away, leaving the couples, for she was aware that they needed some time together. She swallowed her questions as she knew she wouldnt be getting any answers. Come on, lets eat some food, gosh Im seriously starving! Amelia grumbled and Alexanderughed a bit and immediately dig into the food with her. Alexander and Amelia sat at the dining table, their tes filled with delicious food. The room was filled with afortable silence, a sense of fulfillment emanating from both of them. As they enjoyed their meal, Alexander couldnt help but feel an overwhelming happiness at having Amelia back in his arms. The past few months without her had been unbearable, and now that she was here, he didnt want to let go of this moment. Words seemed inadequate to express the depth of his emotions, but he hoped that his actions would speak volumes. Amelia, on the other hand, was filled with anticipation. She had returned to Alexander hoping to find sce and a deeper connection between them. She longed for him to open up and share his feelings, to let her know how he truly felt about her. However, to her frustration, Alexander remained quiet, leaving her wondering what he was thinking. Alexanders eyes kept drifting towards Amelia, watching her every move with a mix of affection and admiration. He observed as she neared the end of her meal, her fork scraping against the te. An idea struck him, and without hesitation, he reached for the bowl of rice and scooped a generous portion onto her te. He then added a sulent chicken wing, cing it gently beside the mound of rice. As he ced the food before her, a small smile tugged at the corners of Alexanders lips. It was a simple gesture, but it held deep meaning for him. The act of serving her food was his way of expressing his care and love for her, a non-verbal message that she meant the world to him. He hoped she would understand the unspoken words behind his actions. Amelia looked down at the freshly added food, her heart fluttering with a mixture of confusion and curiosity. She wondered if there was a hidden message behind this seemingly ordinary act. Her mind raced with questions, trying to decipher Alexanders intentions. While the chicken wing and rice sat on her te, they represented something much more significant. They were symbols of Alexanders affection and his desire to take care of her. It was his way of saying, I want to provide for you and make you happy.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Amelias eyes met Alexanders, and in that moment, she saw a glimmer of vulnerability. It was as if he was silently pleading for her understanding. Her heart melted as she realized that perhaps words werent necessary, that actions could speak louder than any deration of love. With a grateful smile, Amelia picked up her fork to eat. Alexander knew he couldnt dy any further, Knight was still out there but before the unknown takes ce He would enjoy his time with this woman in front of him. He loved her and he was more than sure about that fact. He would make her happy and be with her but then again. Can he protect her from knight?? He didnt want history to repeat itself! And that was his fear. Scores To Settle Crack Amelia sluggishly walk her way into the bedroom, seemingly tired, she suddenly remembered that she just came down from a ne few minutes ago, all the way from One continent to another continent. She was beginning to feel the jetg. Alexander was just behind her, a bit dizzy and awake. He had already told her all that happened with Mrs Gale and her family, not excluding the part where Ash was manhandled by him and also the so called Mahogany. Amelia felt tired of all these shits but she knew they had to ovee all these and rest once and for all. I suddenly think we should do something! Amelia said as she made her way to the door of the closet. Alexanders eyes darted around the room as he watch her head to the closet. Whats that?? Alexander asked as he bnced his back on the headboard, looking at her intently, she was always thinking and scheming. She was his better half. Amelia walk into the closet and didnte out for a while and Alexander twitched his brows as he waited for her toe out. After a while, She came out tying a towel and she directly went to the bathroom door and stood close to it. Alexanders eyes trailed from her long and slender legs to her hips and her abdomen before his eyes joined together, wondering what was down below. Amelia flushed feeling his eyes roam around her body, she wanted to go hide her head somewhere. Alexander return his eyes to her face with a questioning gaze and that was when Amelia found her voice and said: I wanted to talk about the so called Knight Cyrus! hes being too quiet these days, we shouldnt give him the chance for them to revive and bounce back on their feet I was thinking, How about we make theme out themselves cause this is getting too much and out of hand, we dont know what might happen next Amelia suggested and Alexander return his gaze to her arm and a frown reced his face. She grabbed a chair close to the table and sat herself there. She was staring back at Alexander to see if he valued what she had suggested and she saw a glint pass his eyes as he frown but rather said; Alexander nodded I know what youre getting at but this is just day one and you havent had enough rest, just go and take a shower and lets sleep, tomorrow well worry about that!he said it with a considerate voice and Amelia got the message. Alexanders upper lip raised up We have scores to settle so. go freshen up first! Amelias ear burn as it turn pink as her cheek felt itchy but not painful nor ufortable but rather sweet and ticklish. The hairs on her arms stood erect as she immediately wanted to go hide her small head. Amelia nodded and stood up from the chair and headed to the bathroom to take her bath and Alexander called from her back. Want me toe with you?? Alexander tried to break the tension he was feeling by teasing her but her face got so red that she immediately dashed into the bathroom and closed the door with a loud thud. Get out!! Amelia small and shy voice that came as a shout came from the bathroom and Alexander suddenly burst outughing. Still need some help??! He called out again with a wide and sexy smile. And a loud groan came from behind the bathroom door To hell with you! Alexander smiled calmly, thinking whenst he was this blissful. He made a tight fist and made a resolve that he would protect this woman no matter the situation. He couldy down his life for that damsel in there. Ill protect you Amelia! With that said he got up from the bed and head out of the room to his study. Alexander took in all that Amelia had said and he was going to work on that, she gave him a glue and he was gonna perfect it. Alexander opened the study door and went in, his phone was lying on the table so he grabbed it while sitting on the couch close to his usual table and chair that was near the window. As he sat there, he first called George who immediately answered the phone. Alexander! Whats up men Georges groggy voice came from the other side. When his wife woke up and turn to face him with a questioning look, he quickly nted a soft kiss on her forehead and got up from the bed.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. His wife just rolled her eyes as she watched George leave the bedroom, she didnt say any more words and slept off. I want you to rece all the guards and spies around My vicinity and the men stationed at the main entrance of Easternnd, discard them and bring in the armed men from Catalyst. Alexander said this in one breath but his voice didnt deteriorate in terms of Charisma.And the maids at my house, bring just seven maids from California and the ones here, take them to the training camp and rece my parents maids with the most Hardworking and qualified Maids in the camp. I want you to do all this by. Remembering what George grumbled about few days ago about him still being a married man, Alexs eyes darted and he reced his voice with a gentle tone, Meanwhile George was literally frowning as he wanted Alexander toplete his words and add that he should be done with it by tomorrow because Alexander loved that time and day called tomorrow. Well you can do it whenever you are chanced but it should be between this week, thats all. Alexander thought that if he was to be under someone and the person wakes him up in the middle of the night and gave him a very stressful task to finish by tomorrow which will cost him not to spend time with Amelia, he was definitely going to quit the job. But then again, George didnt quit:: Gorge was still stunned from the other end Whats this Alexander?? You are trying to toy with me right?? You dont want it done by tomorrow?? Alexander rolled his eyes Shut up! You can get it done by tomorrow if you like Well..Clearing his throat, Alexander said Thank you George for the past few days! George almost threw his phone in shock. Alexander imagined all sort of faces George would be making at the moment but he just wanted to say his mind. I appreciate it and good news. Amelia Is finally back! Alexander said with a profound smile but he didnt wait for Georg to congratte him as he readily end the call. Bitter Sweet Torture After ending the call, Alexander called Liam whose phone was out of reach and that really irked Alexander. He redialed the number again but still same result, Having awyer as a friend is really a pain in The ass. Now when hes needed, he is nowhere to be found, probably going for undercover missions. Alexander instead called twenty five that was right under George and the call was answered after few rings.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. Sir!! Twenty five immediately sat up on his bed when he heard his phone rang and it was Alexander, he immediately cleared his voice so wade off the sleepiness. Alexander said calmly My goods would be arriving at the shore in four days time, I want you to tell all the men at the shore to evacuate the area, only the newers should remain and they should not be more than six in number! Huh?? That was the question mark on Twenty fives head, what was that?? He was really confused Sir the goods he wanted to remind Alexander about the money involved that he was about to manhandle and carelessly throw away. Alexander smirked coldly Twenty five! Thats it! With that said, he hung up on the call and Twenty five began To have serious doubt. Alexander had asked him to use a voice changer to contact mahogany and the voice changer made himmunicate with Mahogany in Knights voice which till now, made him stunned that such instrument exist. Did master perhaps misced the voice changer and someone else whos against the gang found it?? Twenty five gasped in shock with his eyes widened This is bad!! Alexander flipped his phone on the couch as he sat there for a while, a distant look enveloping his eyes as it wandered around the room. Just then the door was pushed open as a small head stuck out from behind the door, Alexander looked at the woman standing behind the door and a smile graced his face. Few minutes ago when Amelia came out of the shower, she didnt find Him in the room. Even after blow drying her hair, he didnte. She had wanted to spend time with him, she was feeling all coquette and wanted a warm embrace but hes nowhere. She went to the closet and wore her loose pajama of sky blue color, she let her hair fall on her shoulders as she slipped her legs into her yellow fluffy slippers she found in the walk in closet. Just then her eyes caught the wooden part of her closet where she stock her clothes. Something was written there. She removed some of the clothes and her eyes caught the writing on the wood. Her eyes shed as it slowly turn red, her nose became reddish tinge as she looked intently at the written words there. Loving you was never part of the n and now. You left without a goodbye^^>< Amelia''s eyes slowly dropped from the words scripted there. Her mind wandering, thinking how he would have being feeling for him to even scrip those words there. He must be so hurt! Amelia felt things she had never felt before, her heart clenching as she made her way out of the room. She directly head towards the study room to look for him! Yes him! But seeing him now, she suddenly felt shy with him staring at her like that. She braced up herself and widen the door as she entered the room. Alexander smiled at her with hisplete tooth in disy for her, Amelia smiled back but rather nervously. Her mind running fast as her heart thudded so loudly with every step she took. Just her and him... in a dark room..., Alone!!! Gosh, Amelia was more than over excited and when she got to where he was. He dropped his other leg that he had crossed before, he inclined his head to the side as a seductive smile danced on his face and Amelia was lost staring at him, so captivated by his smile and sparkling eyes. And just then, a muscr voice rang out to Amelia''s ear as it came out like a whisper. "You look beautiful tonight" Amelia bite her lower lip as she just stood there, she was currently hating herself for not being able to move or say a word., why was she so lost in his eyes and melting with just a word from him?? Was this a spell or something else?? Because it was really working. Amelia was about to say a small thank you when a great force held her hand and as fast as a strong wind in the dry season, the hand pulled Amelia down that she lost her footings and she fell just right on hisp. "Arghh!" Amelia yelped as she came face to face with Alexander in such a close range. She fell on hisp with both legs open, surrounding his thighs, Her legs were in both sides of his hips while she was sitting on hisp, their faces so close as ever. One more small movement and their lips would collide. Alexander brought his hand up and caress Amelia''s hair and she sucked in a very deep breath, Alexander smiled seeing that he could affect her emotions and cause her body to react with just a little gesture. As his hand rubbed her hair from top to her neck area, he slowly used his hand to touch her nape and neck that was exposed to him. Amelia felt electrocuted as she immediately felt her body feeling all giddy, she didn''t know when she wrapped both her arms around his neck and she drew closer to him and buried her face on his nape. Amelia''s head felt fuzzy as Alexander rubbed her body, he slowly lifted up her pajama shirt and snaked his hand into her shirt and cold breeze blew into the dark room as Amelia almost melted into his chest. Not yet satisfied, Alexander removed his hand from under her shirt and he ced both hands under her round ass and he got up along with her still on his body. Amelia wrapped her legs around his waist so tightly and also wrapped both arms around his neck and she threw her body on his chest, not caring about her pulp breast that was grinding against his chest. Alexander held her hips as he walked towards his chair that was behind the table, close to the window. He allowed her wrap herself like a monkey on him as he enjoyed the bitter sweet torture that her breathing on his skin and breast on his chest was causing him. Giovanni Whacker It was as if time stopped for the couples who were separated for a while to have a romantic reunion. Amelia didnt want the moment to end as she wanted to get lost in his arms. Alexander was driven by his love and passion for her as he dropped her on his table. Amelia stared back at Alex who was looking at her intently, the unspoken words were hanging as Alexander trailed his eyes on her face before he slowly held her chin and pulled his face closer to her and his lip capture her soft and wet lips in a kiss. Amelia felt all jelly as she wrap her arms around Alexanders waist and return the kiss in same intensity. Alexander explored her mouth as he wanted all of her. He grabbed her round ass, deepening the kiss. He only let go off her lips when she was almost out of breath. Alexander used both hands to rub her hair as a warm smile filled his face as he pecked her lips before his eyes darted to the file on his table. Amelia was breathing real hard as she looked at Alexander with dreamy eyes. Alexander took the file and gazed at it for a while before saying. Amy.. Amelia looked at him with round eyes as her gaze fell on the file in his hand and she caught the words on the file. Contract. She looked up at him with questioning gaze. Lets end the contract.. please?? Alexander pleaded with Amelia as he gazed up at her i-i want to make this real, what do you say?? Amelia was just looking at him and he began to fidget as different questions filled his head. Doesnt she love him too?? Alexander cleared his throat in nervousness I know this was suppose to be a matter of six months.. and the rule states that we cant fall for each other but.,,, I think I broke that rule Amy Amelia was only staring at him with raised brows, waiting for him to conclude what he wanted to say but Alex was already taking it the wrong way. But if you dont want it, Ill try to understand! Understand what?? Amelia asked calmly.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Alexander roam his hand on his hair as his eyes darted from one ce to another, he suddenly look like a high school boy who was having difficulties in professing his love for his crush. I-.. Alexander looked up at Amelia with lot of resolve as his voice rolled out I love you Amy and I want to make this real between us, no more contract, no more six months! Alexander looked at Amelia, waiting for her to respond, Atleast say a word but she was just quiet all through making his anxiety grow as the time roll by. Alexander dropped the contract on the desk back as he swallowed hard. Amelia didnt know how to respond to that, yes he had confess to her but why wasnt she excited like she thought she would. Was it because of her near death experience or something else?? But one thing she was sure of was that she wanted Alexander. She wanted to possess him to herself, she had this thirst for him and this feeling of obsession over him as she wanted him all for herself. Alexander said dont worry, I can start by wooing you, its okay if you dont feel the same way for now! Silly! I love you too Amelia shut him up as she held his cor and kissed him. Alexander immediately respond to the kiss as if his life was attached to her lip. He held her closely to himself as he began to explore her mouth, his body seemed to be lit into a burning me, a me of desire. Amelia used both legs to wrap his waist as she pulled him more close to herself. This was it. They loved themselves and was ready to ovee every hassle as long as they were together. Mafia Or No Mafia!! I love you Amy.. Alexander licked her lips as he watched her slowly close her eyes as she immediately dozed off. Amelia fell asleep on Alexanders shoulder after that warm and passionate kiss they shared. Alexander sighed as he tug her hair to the back of her ear, she looked so tired. Thinking of which, she just came down from a ne, she must be experiencing that awful feeling of jetg. And that bastard Travis.. Alexanders expression was so vexed but he managed to swallow some part of his anger when he remembered what Amelia had told him at the dinning room. It was all thanks to Travis, We all made it out alive, so can you just let him go alright?? Besides he didnt do anything inappropriate to me and he respects the fact that Im a married woman. Thinking up to there, Alexander looked at the woman who was sleeping in his arm, Atleast he should be grateful to Travis. That would make Amelia happy, then he should pay Travis a visit so he can return the Favour. Alexander slowly carried Amelia from the table and walked out of the study, heading to their bedroom. On getting there, he dropped Amelia on the bed and was about to get up when he felt a tug on his shirt. He looked down to see Amelia staring back at him, her gaze was a bit misty as she was still drowsy. Sleep babe, Ill be back Alexander coaxed Amelia back to sleep as she pouted her lips and fell back to her dreamnd. Seeing that she was fast asleep, Alexander got up from the bed and walked out again but this time to the living room. It was already 2am in the morning and he didnt get any ounce of sleep. He dialed Traviss number that he got through the aid of twelve who he sent to get Traviss number from his father. Just then, the call got connected and Travis said from the other end Whacker on the Line! What do you want in return for the Favour?? Alexander immediately went straight to the point. Recognizing the voice, Travis smiled as if he had won the lottery but he nevertheless tried not to sound like an hypocrite what do you mean Mr Ron?? Cut the chase and spill it, youre also a business man and as well a mafia as I am, so I believe you know what I mean, we dont do favors without an interior motive, but get this Mr Travis Giovanni Whacker, Stay clear from my wife else you want to be buried with an old corpse! Upcoming Thunderstorm I dont get you now Alexanders expression was already so angry as his brows joined in fury Just so you know, I know your motive of you approaching my woman, the more reason you suddenly showed up in the columbarium that day, we both know your mothers ash is in a different morgue, so what do you want in return for saving my wife!?? Travisughed from the other end Ah Alexander you really are smart, Good no wonder you became Don at your age Dont. Taste. My. Patience.! Alexanders voice came out cool but the venom from his words reached Travis that he felt an invisible hand grip his mouth. Travis wanted to act tough forgetting the severe fear he already had for Alexander that he start to generate four years ago. It was when Alexander had beaten Travis to a pulp when Travis had picked on Alexanders younger brother, Maverick. Who knows Alexander back in the days, knew that Alexanders weak point was his brother, Maverick. Alexander loved his brother the more so when he became a mafia, he had his brother begin to live with their parents so as not to get attacked by his enemies. Maverick was just a sixteen years old high schooler who was the top student In his school and also the most handsome guy in school. Girls wanted him because he was handsome and cute, from a wealthy family, he was intelligent and also an interesting guy, the best yer in the basketball team, and to top it. he was the most pampered and loved Brother of The almighty Business tycoon, the multi billionaire, the Money president, The no other but Alexander Ron. When the surname Ron is mentioned, people incline their heads. When Travis had picked on Maverick, he thought all would be well until Alexander barged into their house that day and dragged him out. His father didnt say a word and just allow Alexander beat him because his father had always warned him against Alexander. That day would forever be a traumatic experience for him as his pretty face was almost ruined by the scary guy Travis swallowed hard before saying Well, you already know what I want but Ill say this, at first I approached your wife because of what I asked from you but after a while, we became friends so dont think I helped her at the columbarium because of my request. Alexander snarled as he rxed his back on the couch Long story! Travis rolled his eyes, Wondering why Alexander always had this annoying personality. I still want the business coboration for my AIpany,e to think of it, we knew each other right from when we were kids though we werent friends but Atleast, You should give me a helping hand right?? That doesnt make you a man!Alex retorted coldly, Travis had always wanted a business coboration contract with the Ron group to boost the image and market sales of his newpany amongst the many he had. What doesnt make me a man?? I started thepany myself okay?? I just need a little nudge Travis said and the deal still stands, you get forty percent of the profit at the end of each year! Alexander was feeling ridiculous already Forty. Yes! Am I that cheap?? Alexander asked with a nonchnt face, he suddenly felt that he was only wasting time talking with Travis who always had nothing better to offer. Okay okay-fine Forty five! Fifty! Alexander immediately cut him short You cant be that greedy right?? This is a new start up! What am I going to use to take care of thepanys need if I am to share the profit in half with you! Youre a business man so you should understand that better! Yes I am a business man thats the more reason I say, if you dont agree to it.. Alexander smirked then shut down the fuckingpany! Traviss face immediately fell as he held the phone to his ear, he was already speechless with Alexanders response. Youre so mean!Travis gritted out as his eyes darted around his room. Dont try to y the pity card, You and I know the massive benefits of you sign those documents with mypany, I should even take up to seventy percent but no I kinda took pity on you for the good deeds! Alexander said and Travisughed the other end. Yes I guess, I was trying to feign some tears, gosh it didnt even work, When are we signing the documents?? Travis said, he was okay with the equal shares. As long as he signed those documents with the Rons group, hispany would be rushed and be the public view, lots of firms would want to work with him. And he would be thrice richer as if he won the lottery. My assistant would inform you about the fixed date With that said, Alexander ended the call and sighed. In as much as he hated Travis and he didnt want anything to do with the guy, not that he was an enemy but he just didnt like him. But he was going against his ns because of Amelia and the fact that Travis had saved him too by saving his wife which he failed to do. If Travis hadnt intervened, he wouldnt have being able to forgive himself. He knew how to appreciate certain things though. Even if it might working with that asshole.!! Really Annoying-goodness gracious! Alexander muttered as he got up and went to his bedroom and saw the small woman all curled up in the bed. A satisfied smile spread on his face, she always had this vibe and light that she brings along with her that whenever she wasnt there, it bes obvious that she wasnt there. Alex slowly walked to the other end of the bed andy there. He turn to face Amelia who was sleeping so soundly, he smiled lightly as he pecked her on her forehead and mumbled Nitty! Hmm.. Amelia groaned in her sleep and rolled towards the other direction where Alexander was and she directly rest her head on his chest, her hair was all over his chest as she used her leg to cover his legs.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Alexander felt the urge tough at her cute way of sleeping but he didnt want to wake her up so he just slept off as well. If only the sleeping couples knew what was brewing for them. Uing Thunderstorm!! How Hot Was He? Ready?? Knight said as he rolled his chair from the view of the ocean that was really dark at the moment. He faced his men with bloodshot eyes Grey I think I agree with you, my second return, I wanted to be calctive and smart like Alexander but I guess it doesnt work that way.. Lets show him Smartness in a crazed manner! Knight hit the table hard and Grey showed a small smile on his face. Yes sir! Grey answered with head down, finally they were making a goodeback. That bastard Ron, weve being driven out for the second time now oureback will be a great blow! Another guy chimed in. Knight was sitting close to the window area, him and his men have been on this ind for a long time now, this was where they usually hid whenever things go wrong for them, it was the ind close to the ck Sea. He knew Alexander must have already discovered this ind but why he didnt attack left him confused but he didnt want to dwell in any more confusing situations than he was now. Prepare yourselves cause its going to be war Scraper..?? Knight shouted and a very dip voice rang out with a Sir! Go inform the Venoms. Were invading Main Europe in three days Knight said with narrowed eyes, his hands on his jaw as he looked into the far distance. Yes sir but Sir in as much as I want us to eliminate the Alphas, but doing things rashly because of the anger we feel about them kicking us out it might end up being bad for us, what if something goes wrong?? Lets think this through! Knight was immediately enraged as he shouted at Scraper Shut up you fool, Scattered nonexistent bastard! I am the leader of this gang! Nobody. Questions. My. Authority.!! The veins on Knights neck was already so vincible, he hated it when his men say those words over and over again about them being kicked out of Europe for the second time. He hated that fact! Scraper immediately lowered his head and swallowed a lump of his saliva as he took few steps backwards to avoid being killed by the already enraged Cyrus. Grey red at Scraper in response, such a bber mouth! Knight breath in a mouthful of air as he sat back down on his chair, his expression slowly shifted as it was reced with a smirk, then a vexed expression, and then a grin before a wide smile. Grey inclined his head to the other side, wondering why knight cyrus suddenly look like a lunatic! Whats with the faces and expression!?? I just discovered something when I went out for a disguise in the city, Alexanders goods would be arriving at the shore in three days, I think hes being feeling too rxed and thinks we were all done for Knight snarled The audacity of him! His eyes constricted as he smirked They are just few securities in the area and we will be destroying that location but..,, Knight dropped his leg on the ground as he faced his men and Grey quickly looked at his direction but not daring to look at him in the eyes. But I think it is a trap So, we have a n B as a counter measure which is.. Knight began to grin foolishly as his eyes darted around the room, mind wandering to a different dimension of the world. ^^Next Morning ^^ Amelia starred in her sleep as she turn to the other side of the bed, She looked more alive because of the enough sleep she had, she had replenish all the lost amount of strength she lost before. Amelia slowly opened her eyes as her eyes looked around the bed before she slowly got up and looked around, Alexander wasnt around the bedroom area nor was the shower working, so he was probably not in the bathroom. She sighed as she was about to get up when memories ofst night shed into her head. Silly! I love you too! Remembering those lines she used for Alexander, her face immediately flush red as shey back on the bed and then the scenes when they both had a very intense kiss came to her mind. Arghh Cant believe Im now a pervert! Gosh! Amelia hid her head under her pillow as she kept muttering those words to herself. Her eyes widen in shock when she realized something We both confessed our feelings and ended the contract, So that means. This is now real and whole new?? oh my! Oh my!! Amelia started grinning from cheek to cheek like a fool. She wasying with belly down facing the bed and she raised both of her legs up with a pillow over her head as she kept grinning like an idiot there. She used both hands to hold her cheek as she started day dreaming with dreamy eyes, smiling from cheek to cheek. She didnt even know when Alexander entered the room and when he heard her chuckling and grinning sounds, He raised a brow and lowered his presence as he walked towards her side of the bed to check if she was still okay. He stood close to the bed and ced both hands behind his back as his stretched his neck to take a look at her face and he was rendered speechless seeing how she was muttering things under her breath with a stupid smile on. Oh men! That was so hot , Hehehe Amelia kept moving her head from side to side as she flicked her legs that was hung up and she held the pillow to her cheek that was bright red. And what was so hot?? Alexander asked from above her which got her startled that she almost flung off from the bed.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Arghh Goodness! Amelia held her chest as she looked at Alexander as if she was seeing a ghost, Her hair was messy and she didnt even realize that the three buttons on her shirt were undone, revealing a total amount of her corbone and white, silky skin that was clear and fresh. Alexander swallowed hard as his eyes stered on her exposed skin but he return his gaze to her face when he heard her say When did youe in here?? Alexander smirked as he sat near her that there was only a small space separating them both, Amelia had nowhere to run to as she was pinned close to the headboard while Alexander was over her and his other hand on the head board, thereby trapping her there. I heard you say something was hot?? Were you referring that to me?? Alexander asked and Amelia immediately denied it. No-no-I wasnt referring that to you, it was the guy from a movie i watched few minutes ago Ooh a guy?? Hmm from a movie?? And How hot was he??

Explicit Scenes? ??THIS CHAPTER MAY CONTAIN SOME MATURE SCENES, IF UNCOMFORTABLE, PLEASE SKIP AND SCROLL TO THE NEXT CHAPTER?? Hmm very hot! Amelia answered as she tried to break free from his gaze. Alexander sucked in a deep breath as he watched her movements, he looked at her amusingly. So you remember every details?? Alexander asked as he pitched her chin and she yelped under him. Amelia stared at Alexander who had a displeased look, she wanted to p her head, they just started something real justst night and this morning, she was pissing him off. She shouldnt have made excuses with a guy, this was a bad idea! Was Alexander jealous?? Amelia almost smiled but when she received a re from him, she swallowed her smile and change her expression to a sad face as she looked elsewhere and said I dont-I dont remember much detail, I just saw it and stroll pass it! Amelia immediately said it to escape any allegations that would bebeled against her. Alexander smiled as he watched the little woman, her shy attitude that was rear to see was really cute. Come here! Alexander said with a small voice and lean on her to kiss her. Come on Alex, I havent even brushed my tooth! Alexander kissed her lips as he gripped her jaw lightly, he pecked her lips as he looked at her eyes and kissed her lips again before saying I wanna taste you in the morning! Amelia swallowed, why does that suddenly sound like something else in her mind?? Seeing her twitched brows, Alexander shook his head Pervert! Amelia immediately snapped her head to face him but Alexander didnt give her the chance to rebuke him as he pressed his lips on hers which she responded to with a moan. All her thoughts were always written on her face which made it easy for him to know her more and whatever she was thinking at the moment of time. Alex- Amelia moaned his name as Alexander deepened the kiss, he just cant seem to get enough of her as he kissed her more and she responded in same ecstasy, Alexander roamed his hand on her shirt that was unbuttoned and when Amelia felt his hand there, she gasped in his mouth. Thereby intensifying the desire in Alexander, Alexander let go off her lips and went for her neck and his hands found her peaches and started ying with them. Amelia was already so hot all over as she gripped his shirt tightly, ready to tear them apart. Take it off! Alexander said to her and she immediately started to fiddle with the buttons on his shirt but for some reasons, she was finding it hard to remove the buttons and Alexander felt she was wasting time so he simply torn his shirt away, throwing the pieces to the ground. He climbed ontop of her on the bed as Amelia roamed her hands on his broad back and let him do the work of pleasuring her. Amy are you sure about this? Once I start theres no going back! Alexander decided to ask and make sure first in case she didnt want this. Amelia looked at him with same gaze, gaze full of lust, love and everything else. She was more than sure of this, she wrapped both hands on his neck and kissed him hard as a yes and Alexander groaned in between the kiss as his desire had reached the peak and he couldnt take it anymore as he torn thest pieces of clothing on Amelia which was only her bra and pantie. Amelia suddenly felt shy when her full body came into view and her face redden as Alexander stopped what he was doing and was gazing at her. Youre beautiful Saying that, Alexander removed her hands around her chest and kissed her breast. Alexander spread kisses all over her body that she felt all jelly, she was already so ready for him. Alexander took off his short and was stark naked in front of Amelia and when she saw his little brother, her eyes widen in shock that she gasped in shock. Alexander chuckled and bent close to her ears and whispered seducing her the more you made it like that, so you fix it Alexs voice was slow and melodic in Amelias ear that it made her feel butterfly in her stomach. Alexander- Amelia gazed at him with a loving gaze and he kissed her eyes, her nose before finding her lips and sucked on them.

And when Amelia woke up, she felt sore all over as she felt weak, she only woke up in the afternoon after sleeping all through the morning with a hungry stomach. She thought when she wakes up, Alexander would have already gone to work, but she was surprised to see him staring at her when she opened her eyes. Alexander shed her a Warm smile with a blissful expression, never had he thought of the wonderful time they just spent together and he never really thought of her as a virgin until this morning when she had eximed when he was about to prate her. He was shocked to find out that she was a virgin at her age. Girls of her age werent virgins but she really took him by surprised. Good afternoon sweetheart! Alex smiled at her as he ced a small kiss on her forehead and Amelia smiled as she wrapped her hand on his arm. Good morning Alex! Amelia smiled back in satisfaction though she was really sore down there. Alexander didnt overlook her expression I know you are feeling sore because of the many time we did it.. Shut up, dont say that! Amelia flushed red as she hit his shoulder in anger, she was really shy to talk about it.

Ughh Amelia gripped her hair as her eyes darted around the ce Good riddance! Hubby Is Sorry Amelia was just gawking like a fool as she stared at Alexander who was busy searching through the items on the table. Really?? Amelia muttered under her breath but she swallowed all herints, Just as Alexander had said, the ointment really worked in herThis content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. *Cough.* Okay are you ready?? Alexander asked her to be sure as he looked at her up and down and Amelia also looked down at herself and she almost chuckle. She was wearing a green short tight shirt that exposed her belly, a ck trouser that wasnt too free from her body and a ck sniggers to match. A Grey band was wrapped around her head and a Big ALPHA was written on the band. The ck alpha band was meant for themon members but the Grey color was only and exclusive for Just Alexander and no one else. He had four sets of these bands and he just gave Amelia two of the bands as a symbol of her status as his wife. She was ready for a run that Alexander had imposed on her this morning. Just after having their breakfast, Alexander seem so unusually Nice to her as he offered her a free body massage which she dly grabbed andy down for this masterpiece toe to y. His hands did wonders to her body that she didnt feel any more aches on her body. He allowed her to rest for a while until he told her the new routine for her every morning. Cant believe Im doing this Alex! You want me to run 200 miles around easternnd?? Amelia asked to confirm if this was just a punishment or act of wickedness. Alexander sighed as he walked towards her and held her shoulder You arent fit.. He didnt get toplete his statement when Amelia threw him a hard re You mean Im not healthy and fat??!!! Alexander swallowed hard, he had passed through the wrong direction Thats not it, you arent fat, its just that I want you to be more fit and agile Alexander dropped his hands from her shoulder and a smile that looked kind of one that was of displeasure emerged on his face. He feigned a displeased face as he said to her Yesterday night, You got tired easily that I couldnt go all out, I want you to be strong for our next night exercise, cause I want you ontop Amelias face immediately turn red as she gazed at Alexander in utter disbelief Are you being serious right now?? Alex-you- Enough of the talks now, Lets get you to do the exercise Alexander pushed Amelias shoulder as he turn her towards the car direction and told her where to start. Amelia sighed and gazed deeply at Alexander who had already moved towards the car, he would be driving the car after her as he watch her do the race. Amelia didnt say a word but she already guess his purpose for making her undergo such exercises and she made a promise to herself to do this to the end. Alexander got into the car and ignited the car, he watched Amelia stand at the back of the car, ready to start the race. He sighed deeply as his heart clenched , he didnt like seeing her so stressed but he had to do this for her too. He blew the horn and Amelia immediately took off and He started the car and slowly drove behind her. Amelias heart was racing as she kept running along the road, each track she ran, burst of memories from the military came rushing to her mind and she fasten her pace and sped through the road. Alexander noticed this and also elerated the car and watched her closely, he didnt intend to let her run a 200 m race, he had set a timer for her. Amelia didnt even know how she ran for three hours and was still feeling agile to run. Alexander was already so tired of blowing the horns for her to stop so he stopped the car and ran after her but she was far ahead. Alexander sighed as he watched the girl run as if it was her own world, she let the morning sun kiss her skin as Alexander looked at her. She emitted the aura of a fighter, not giving up as she ran along the tiled road. As her hips move from one side to the other in a slow motion, Alexander felt that he keep growing new and wonderful feelings for her again. He keep falling for her every day, not getting tired of seeing her and loving her. Alexander chased along with her and when he caught up with her, he saw her sweating profusely as her chest move up and down. Amelia slowly turn to face him and Alexander was staring at her. I did it right?? Amelia asked as she showed her full set of white teeth,ing close to Alexander with a wide smile that her eyes turn a sharp of half moon. Alexander was lost in her smile as he looked at her face, he swiftly bend and pecked her lips You did well Wifey Amelia giggled and turn to leave and Alexander grabbed her hand and handed her a bottle of water which she dly epted as they both walked back home together. Alexander forsake his car along the road and called Scar toe get the car as he enjoyed the walk back home with his wife. They used the moment to have a sun bath as they headed for home. On getting home, Amelia quickly went for a shower and When she came out she saw the man busy drafting something on a wide carbon paper and she just walked past him and went to get dressed and when she came out, he sighed. Done, heye over and take a look Alexander called her and She went to meet him at the couch and Alexander pulled her to hisp and she sat her self there as she looked into the paper Alexander showed her. A schedule?? Amelia asked as she looked at the carbon paper well. From today till next tomorrow, you will be having different types of training, I know you went to the military but I want to boost your immunity and make it bnce Alexander rubbed her hair lovingly as his gaze soften and his tone lowered Im so sorry Wifey that you have to endure such things, Hubby is sorry okay?? Alexander kissed her jaw and Amelia nodded as she said to him. I understand Alexander but I would love for you to tell me whats going on, I have a rough guess that this fight is not a small thing and it has everything to do with Knight, right?? Stop Being A Pervert Alexander gazed deeply at Amelia for a while and Amelia waited for him to say what he wanted to say. Ive got some things nned out and I just need to wait for Knight to take the Bart and then I strike but then again. Sometimes Knight Cyrus looks more like a crazy person but he know what exactly he is doing! Alexander said with a cold face but not too cold so as not to scare his little wifey. Amelia cleared her throat Did-did you?? Yes! Alexander didnt deny it and admitted that he had took her suggestions seriously and had work on her idea. Amelia felt stunned for a moment before a sweet feeling slowly spread to her chest area as she felt happy that he could Atleast assist Alexander with his dealings and for the fact that he considered her words even if she isnt sure of what she was saying and how effective it would be. You are a smart woman Amy that God had bestowed on me which I am happy about so why not listen to you??, I did some thinking on the hint you gave and were just waiting for Thursday to see how its gonna y Alexander said calmly before sighing. Though he was really calm saying all these but he was really afraid, afraid for Amelia who just escaped from a near death experience. Even if something was to happen to him, he would be satisfied and notin about it but this woman?? If anything more was to happen to Amelia again, he wasnt sure if he could pull through like the one he had just experienced. He was still wondering how he managed to have survived those days. Was it maybe because of the strong taste and hunger for revenge against those that had hurt Amelia.??Material ? N?velDrama.Org. He didnt want to find answers to the questions, All he knew was that if anything of mishap should happen to her again, he would definitely die. Thats enough for the bad things, lets keep our problems aside and go receive some fresh air under the shade, I just discovered that the shade is really suitable for rxation during the afternoon with a cup of coffee Amelia said and got up from Alexandersp and he stood up as well. Ill be right back, Ill go have a quick shower! Alexander said as he dropped the paper in his hand and Amelia nodded before walking out. Alexander quickly dashed off to take his shower. Meanwhile Amelia went downstairs and found some maids talking in the kitchen. I wonder where she has been all these while, Im really happy for sir Ron that his wife is finally back to him a maid said as she folded both hands akimbo. Thats right, else I dont think sir would havested up to a year with the way he was going A maid agreed with what the first maid had said. The other three maids chimed in as well as they kept riding on the issue. Master was almost going berserk, he was always working, upying his mind with paperworks and handling of the gangs affair just to get his mind off the gnashing pain and reality that madam isnt anymore the maid let out a mouthful of air as a sign of relief thank goodness shes alive, because I was more worried about how of a hell our lives would have been here in the same mansion as him Okay thats enough girls, you must have had your full now right?? Amelia said nonchntly as she walked in on the maids who were so shocked and they all bowed their heads and tried to hide their faces but Amelia justughed a bit. You can go now, I dont hold any thing against you all but know something. talking about others is bad and not just anyone, your boss! Amelia reprimanded them with a nk face, not smiling anymore nor was frowning as she looked at them as if she had great foresight and wisdom as if she had lived for so long. Yes ma! Yes ma, thank you maam the maids immediately scurried away. Vowing not to talking behind others back. Amelia shook her head and went to get water from the refrigerator, she took a bottle of water and opened the bottle and took a sip from it. She stood close to the kitchen cab for a while, wondering. Did Alexander really go through all those?? Was he that hurt and angry?? No wonder he was so slim and bony unlike before. He must have being so hurt by that news, if she had known, she would have been more conscious and attentive to the little details when those janitors were changing windows and doors, she thought she was really smart, guess she wasnt that smart enough to detect such a thing that was amiss. She took another mouthful before covering the bottle water and left it on the table and walked out. She went out the house and walked towards the back to the fountain area and saw Alexanders men engaging in some activities. When she looked more, they were testing guns while targeting the board ced there. They were such talents Amelia must confess, she suddenly wanted to hold that instrument again as it has being long she touched one. Wanna try it out?? A voice came from behind her as a strong and muscr arms wrapped around her waist and Amelias breath hitched when she felt his breath on her neck. I would love to Amelia replied and she earned a small kiss under her ear lobe and the tip of her ear turn red. Alexander unwrap his arms around her waist and held her hand as he gave her a small smile and Amelia rolled her eyes at him. Pretending you didnt do anything huh? Amelia nevertheless let go off her thoughts as the thrilling feeling washed over her, she was going to hold a gun again. After leaving the military, she couldnt hold such stuffs anymore and now her husband was gonna be her private tutor. Though she knew how to shoot and hold a gun and she had done it before but its being so long and she didnt think she would be that perfect at it and secondly. She wanted to experience being guarded by Alexander, how he would wrap his hands on hers as he whisper the instructions in her ear. Gosh Amelia stop being a pervert already! Four Bullets Alright, you all can go do something else, we are here now Alexander said strictly as he walked in with Amelia and the men immediately bowed and walked away to go have some mid day snack and rx before they leave for the guards house while some were heading to the catalytic house which serve as their headquarters. Alexander gazed at the different guns on the table and gazed at the board from afar and he had one of the men rece the board to a whole new one where there were no piercings on the board. Amelia was roaming her hands on the guns, inspecting them and asking questions from time to time. And when it was all set for the training to begin, Amelia was beckoned to by Alexander and she went to stand close to the table. Alexander wore her a noise reducer and stood at her back, his thighs were touching hers from time to time. They were so close and Alexander leaned on her ear and slowly ced both hands on her shoulders before trailing them on her arms and he did this so slowly and seducing. Amelia suddenly felt the hairs on her skin stood erect as she gasped. Alexander ced a small pistol with light-recoiling, in her right hand and she gripped the gun with both hands, trying to divert her mind from the warm hands on hers. Amelia stretched both her hands holding the gun and Alexander held onto her hands that was holding the gun as he looked at her side profile from the close range. He felt like having her at that moment, every sight of her arouse him. Was he making a mistake by telling her he wanted to teach her to shoot a gun.?? He suddenly felt this was a torture he had bestowed upon himself, wondering if he would make it pass the whole training. He swallowed hard as he watched her gaze ahead as if her prey was just ahead of her and ready to shoot at it any moment. You dont have to be so fierce honey Alexander chuckled lightly as his face was still close to her ear. Amelia felt ticklish when his chuckle pass by her ear and she subconsciously turn to look at him and their nose brushed against each other, that was when Amelia realize how deadly close they were. She immediately throw her head to the other side, not daring to look at him again and he felt amused by her cheeky acts. Alexander decided to go straight to the point as the faster he was at the whole thing, the better for him so he wont be tortured for long.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. Firstly, Treat all guns as if theyre loaded unless you personally, immediately, and visually verify otherwise, Okay?? Alexander said calmly and Amelia nodded, shaking the tension in her. Dont be so tensed about it! Alexander said again as he adjust back a little, thinking that because he was too close to her, she might be loosing focus. Im not tense, this-this isnt my first time you know! Amelia answered sharply as she gripped the gun harder. Okay, I believe you but Mrs Ron can you not hold the gun too tight?? Alexander felt really good teasing this wife of his and it worked as her face turn red. She loosen her grip on the gun a little bit Good this way, just get to it already Amelia said trying to break the embarrassment in her tone. Alexander held her hand and Said to her Never allow the muzzle or barrel of any gun to point at anything you are not willing to shoot and destroy. This includes the shooters legs, feet, hands, or other people, that is something you should always keep in mind, focus on the main target and try to be calm always so as not to shoot your own feet Got it! Amelia answered resolutely as she focused her gaze on the board. Dont just look at the board alone, also at the edge of the pistol so you know where the bullet is heading to when your shootAlexander said and Amelia did as told and she watched the mouth of the pistol and found out that she was actually pointing at the wood that held the board all these while. She waste no time in repositioning it and brought the mouth of the pistol, facing the board as she maintained a straight posture. Alexander nodded in approval, His wife was really smart and a fast learner. Thats good! Keep your finger off the trigger and outside the trigger guard until your sights are on the target and you are ready to shoot. Alexander said to her as he walked away from her to check her posture and was satisfied with the result. Be sure of your target and what is behind it. For example, dont shoot at a target on the crest of a hill, as you have no idea where that bullet will go. So same applies to this board, be sure of the ce the bullet might hit when you pull the trigger Alexander replied again and Amelia was about to puke. Too much lecture, lets get this done and over with already! I get what you mean Ameliained and Alexander chuckled as he got what he wanted. You sure really need a lot of work out because youre already sweating so much just for the few minutes you stood in this posture Alexander chuckled and Amelias expression immediately turn dark in annoyance. Seems you dont want to teach me! Amelia said within gritted teeth as she frown at Alexander who raised both hands in surrender. Im sorry Wifey, lets do this! Please pardon Alex immediately appeased his cute wife as he tried to keep his head before she bites his head off. Amelia twitched her nose as she gazed at the board again. Okay youre set, I want you to shoot four bullets at a go Alexander said and she tighten her eyes as she creased her brows and immediately pulled the trigger at hismand. One, Two! Three!! Go!!!! Phahh! Phahh!! Phahh!!! Phahhh. The Bahamas Here have this! Alexander said handing a file over to Amelia who raised a brow as she stretched out her hand to take the file. After the training earlier, she got more better at it and they called it a day as they both retire to the study upstairs on Alexanders idea. Alexander was sitting on his usual chair as he gazed ahead of the window and Amelia was spotted in the couch close by. She had a confused face as she opened the file slowly, she took out the several papers on the file and read through it. The more she read, the more she got confused and also something kept rumbling in the bit of her belly. This is the deeds of the Robertsons mansion and businesses and the several properties under their name Amelia said as she gazed at the man who was looking elsewhere. The whole properties are all your mothers handwork, so its only right that you im it and they are all yours from now hence forth Alexander said with no expressions on his face. Amelia dropped the file on the table as she sighed deeply what about marion?? She has been sentenced by the court to thirty years in prison Alexander said coldly with hardbor he added and Amelia swallowed hard. Wondering how jolie would be like as she shook her head and she said calmly A boy we rescued at the columbarium that day. Amelia started and Alexander turn to look at her for the first time since they entered the study. . Happens to be the son of the senator, as a form of reward, he gave me a mall and also a car not excluding lot of money on top of it Amelia said as she rxed her back on the chair and Alexander had that proud smile on his face. Thats what you get when you are good but then again, please dont be so good again, I cant risk it, I dont like that kind of Good you rendered Alexander said as he looked at the stubborn girl intently. Amelia immediately nodded multiple times to soothe him and he only rxed after hearing her say Okay For the next day, you have to go for some training, your tutor would being over by tomorrow, I wont be home these days for I will be busy these days with some stuffs Alexander said calmly as he watched the womans face dropped. Amelias face dropped as she thought of the problems still hanging around the corner, Knight was still out there. Alexander stood up from his chair and walked towards Amelia who was sitting in the couch. Seeing himing towards her direction, she showed a smile to cover the look of hurt on her face. Thats okay, just take care of your health Amelia said with a small smile, She didnt want to act coquettish in this dire situation, she should be bold and brave by his side and not use her emotions to weigh him down. He has to focus more especially in this hard time and crucial moment. Alexander crouched down in front of her as he held both her hands and said Tell me what you think Alexander knew she must have a lot on her mind. It wasnt easy, she wasnt here with him and part of his mess because she wanted to. She was sold to him so it was a no choice matter. She didnt bargain for this! Amelia sighed deeply Truthfully. Alexander waited for her to talk, Amelia gazed at him deeply as she bit her lower lip. I seriously hope this whole thing should end as soon as possible so we can finally live in peace, this is stressing everyone out Amelia said calmly and Alexander nodded as his mind wandered away. She must be so stressed, he couldnt afford to stress her more as he started to have some thoughts running through his mind at the moment. But he nevertheless gave Amelia a small smile Not to worry, everything would end soon Dear Amelia nodded as she stood up and Alexander also stood up with her. I need to go have some rest now Amelia said as she yawned and went to have a little afternoon nap. Alexander didnt forget to peck her lips before letting her go. As the door closed with a small barge, Alexs eyes darkened as he took his phone and walked towards his chair and sat down, facing the window. Phoenix, Where has the goods reached?? Alexander asked as his fingers typed away in his second phone. Sending a message to the doctor, Who was also an Alpha, a doctor in the Mental hospital {Transfer Ash Moon to the Bahamas, Twelve will Take care of the whole trip, you transfer along with her, you will work from there} From Don X. Phoenix said from the other end Asmanded, the goods reached The sea port at the east and the initial spot, the other goods had reached the south Alexander hummed as he replied again Change of n, all eyes and men should be directed to my mansion at easternnd, my wife wont be involved Phoenix frown from the other end I dont think Amelia would be safe either I know about that fact but its better to be safe than sorry Alexander said calmly as his eyes darkened. What about our undercover men from the other side?? Alexander asked. Just got their signals and some useful informations Phoenix said I can work with these, but we still need you at the web And before I get there by Tomorrow. Alexander said as he swerved his chair, facing his table this time around You know what to do with the Mahogany Yes sir Phoenix replied as swept his gaze around the room and his eyes fell on the disheveled Mahogany who was sitting on the chair not too far off. Phoenix deep eyes prated hers and she shivered as a shiver went down her spine, having a bad premonition. She will be well taken care of by me, dont worry Alexander smiled coldly as he rxed his back on the chair and let out a small sigh as he dropped the phone on the table.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. Amelia. He let out her name in a whisper. Something Amusing A clicking sound echoed as the leather shoe walked down the long passage that was dark with only a dim lighting from the window that was slightly opened. The figure entered the room before him and closed the door behind him. Sir.. Grey bowed slightly as he walked towards the man sitting on the couch, the study was as dark as usual. Smoke puffed out of the mans nose and mouth, both legs crossed in a diligent manner as he looked delicate in that posture. His suit was neatly in order as his eyes narrowed dangerously Grey what have you found?? Alexs Goods would be arriving by tomorrow at the shore in the east and I had men spy more and investigate thoroughly and it seems to be a trap, another ship containing the weapons that cost billions would be arriving at the south too, I think all this shipments is a trap sir Grey said all these in one breath, after saying his piece, silence reigned over the room. Knight was just smoking as his eyes contain frost, deep in thoughts Go get granny and try to take care of that silly Mahogany, she must have raid us out I already have some men take care of that, they are onto Phoenix and has being stationed around catalyst webGrey answered again and Knight nodded slowly as he dropped his cigarette on the ash tray. What about granny?? Knight asked again and his eyes softened a bit before hardening again. Greys eyes darted around the room for a while as he was a bit short of what to say and that really irked Knight cyrus as knight snapped his head towards Grey. Have you being cking off Grey Hound?? Knight cyrus called out Greys full name and that made Grey shudder abit as he tried to stabilize his mood and temperature, cause his body temperature has dropped in few degrees already. Thats not it, I will go get granny in few minutes time Grey said with head down. Knights gaze prated Grey as if he wanted to eat him raw, his eyes dark and cold as he watched Grey bow his head the more. The room was so stiff and the air seems so stuffy for Grey to breath, with Knights gaze on him, he felt very ufortable and feeling like a total failure at the moment which he hate the most. That feeling of Being a fool. Just then a knock came from the door that saved Grey from the suffocating predicament he was in as knight threw his gaze on the smoke chain on the table. Without further ado, he took the smoke chain with little or no expression. Grey walked towards the door and opened it for Earth to walk in. Earth bowed slightly as he stood not too far from where Knight was sitting. Sir Cyrus, I just got information that Alexanders wife, Amelia is back in town and the securities around the vicinity has being tripled by Mr Ron Earth said as he watched knights expressions, when he didnt get a reply, he continued and it said to be Travis Giovanni Whacker who had saved Amelia Ron! With that statement dropped, knight finally showed an expression, his face had a smug smile Seems that girl isnt simple, managed to captivate the heart of two men at the same time Knight shook his head in disbelief, a girl who can make Alexander break his principles must be a goddess with immense feminine charms and beauty and as well. a very unique personality. That he could also testify to as he had met Amelia before. I want her Knight suddenly said and Grey hounds eyes widened in shock. Earth cleared his throat, thinking that their boss must have lost his mind then. Boss-i- Grey hound, go get granny today and earth, keep a close watch on that fierce pumpkin Knight said dismissively as he stared at the window, as if saying:meeting adjourned till further notice. Grey sighed a bit as he walked out with head down. Wondering if his master was interested in that bitch,Never! Grey was so angry as he walked out of the building and went outside to go get his car and drive off to get the granny. A watchful eyes followed Grey as he kept muttering in anger and Earth suddenly walked out of nowhere And went over to meet Grey who was about to ignite the car. What do you n on doing?? Earth asked Grey who has already ignited the car and Grey threw him a fierce look.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. That girl is trouble, I cant afford to let our master start developing soft spots for her and mess up theid down ns.. I will destroy her before anything should happen Grey said with so much hatredced in his voice. Earth furrowed his brows Dont you think youre over doing this things?? I mean master isnt so dumb to do such a thing! Greyhound tinted his lips upwards in mockery Seems youve forgotten so soon, how the hell did that fucking Alexander uproot our gang from Europe at first?? It was all because of master who suddenly had an heart.. Grey smacked the steering wheel in anger before passing his fingers through his hair and he rxed his back as his eyes darted I want this more than anyone, I want to end Alexander so bad.. Earth sighed as he looked at Grey deeply You still havent told anyone, not even master about this heated and deep hatred you have for Alexander and what caused it Grey remained silent for a while before he suddenly stepped on the car and drove out of the vicinity with speed. Earth just remain there as he ced both hands into his pant pocket. A piercing gaze followed the line at which Grey had passed through. Knight stood there as his eyes became ever cold as he looked out of the window, his figure straight and well defined. The aloofness was too overbearing and suffocating. His line of sight slowly dropped on the figure that was standing with both hands in his pocket. As if he found something amusing, his lips tinted up in a smirk.. A cold smirk! Thirty Amelia sighed continuously as she ate dinner alone, Alexander had went out when she woke up earlier. He only called her few minutes ago that he would be working into the night as he had a lot to do. She didnt say much as she understood what he was doing and the reasons for all that. But she couldnt help but feel so lonely without him around. She continued to pick on her food as she kept sighing, tomorrow would be a very tough day for her man. Not only Alexander but also for the Alphas. Her mind kept wandering, thinking of any ways she could be of help to Alexander and the gang. Without further ado, she stood up from the chair and walked out of the house and her gaze roamed around the bigpound. It was almost getting dark as the sky had turn a bit orangey and a little touch of Yellow, the sun was about to go over to the horizon. Amelia observed that there were more men than before, this was really serious. She walked towards the ce Twelve was standing with some men. They all seems to be having a very serious conversation and Amelia kept her eyes on them all. She kept looking for something unusual as she gaze at them with probing gazes. She discovered that some men amongst them were sighing from time to time while some kept changing standing posture. Some were already sitting on the chairs around the corner while some rest their heads close to the walls with eyes closed. Amelia frowned deeply as she felt something was wrong with them. She walked towards twelve and the others and when they all saw her, some stumbled on each other as they tried to create space for her. Amelia didnt beat around the bush as she went straight to the point Whenst did mr Walkere to treat you all?? Twelve cleared his throat Maam. the thing is that, since the day you, you suddenly disappeared Twelves eyesnded on Amelias face to see her reactions but he didnt linger his gaze on her face when he confirmed that she wasnt taking his words to the wrong direction, he continued. Master has being quite preupied to ask the doctor toe examine us Amelia wanted to ask them if they had reminded Alexander about their checkups but she swallowed it because it sounds really ridiculous as it would look as if she was mocking them or something. They always had this lingering fear for their Don, and going to ask or rather, remind him of their monthly checkups, was like a very painful death mission.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. They couldnt afford to lose their heads so soon. They couldnt ask as the time was really off and misgiving, their don was like a monster in thest few weeks without Amelia around. He wasnt himself and was looking really drained by the recent happenings so them asking him for their check ups was a death sentence no one was ready to face. Amelia nodded in understanding and the other alphas felt that heaven has finally smiled upon them as they watched Amelia talk with twelve concerning their regr checkup that wasnt regr anymore. Finally, their bosss wife would call the doctor over, right!?? They all had wishful thinking, theyve being feeling really weak and sleepy these days to perform their duties efficiently. The kind of work they do, needs a lot of strength to do all the work and continuous medications to avoid health problems. Amelia walked away from them and their smiles died down. They all had solemn faces as they watched Their masters wife leave as she kept heading to the living room. Some were about to tear up as they ced their heads on the wall again and sighed deeply. They were so weak as their bodies were aching all over. Twelve didnt say anything as he kept on describing what Alexander had instructed him earlier. Just then, the automatic gate that uses code and scans, opened widely when it recognized a car driving into thepound. Twelve looked at the several men stationed at the gate and they signaled to him that all was well. Twelve was stunned when doctor walker came down from the car with some female nurses who were either carrying boxes that contain whatever and some were holding jolters and pen. Mr Walker walk towards twelve in hurried footsteps as the nurses all followed behind. The other alphas stood up from where they were sitting and walk towards the uing visitors with surprise written all over their faces. Gentlemen lets get down to business Mr Walker urged as he got close to them. Twelve rolled his eyes We arent gentlemen facing the other men, he asked Or are we?? The others shook their heads while others replied with a No Mr Walker spanked Twelve in his head and Twelve twitched his face as his massaged his head. Silly Boy! I think I have to pierce some senses into that deep skull of yours as it seems like your cerebellum and the medur oblongata has being affected by bugsMr Walker spat and Twelve pouted his lips and walked to the back. A guy named Crown walked towards Mr Walker and led them to the penthouse they were all upying while others followed behind. Good child Mr Walker appraised Crown who was acting like a real man and Very respectful towards his personality. Sir Im thirty already, Im not a child Crown replied with a straight back as he had that neutral face on as if he didnt spit out those words. Mr walkers face dropped as he was speechless, his face contain a snarl as he gazed at Crown. They are all so full of themselves, thought he was even better than that nephew of mine Mr Walker red hard at his Nephew, Twelve, and Twelve scurried away from where Mr Walker was. Mr Walker swallowed his words and cleared his throat, not wanting to look embarrassed, he threw a re at the young nurse who was a newbie in his hospital, when she chuckled. He readjusted his suit and continued to walk to the penthouse, If not that the madam had personally called him, he wouldnt even waste his time running here. He just loved the madam who was a young girl and thats the reason he immediately obliged to her. Everything Will End X the ships would be arriving in three hours from now on the east, the southern shore is under construction for some reasons I cant tell, that would be a big problem for tomorrows event Phoenix said as he sat on the chair, around the long table. The big room look more like a conference room as it was very huge but had a long table at the middle with chairs on both sides of the table. The room could contain a hundred people with some space remaining. Around the walls at the left hand side of the room, are frameworks of past legends, Old and tough members that has passed away, members of the Alpha Gang of Europe. At the right hand side of the room, were portraits and frameworks of The Current gang leader and the Don of all the mafia Gangs. Alexander Ron Aka. Don X! His imposing and arrogant demeanor and Sharp gaze on the frame was so discerning and oppressing. With no ws, he appeared to be responsible, roguishly charming, handsome beyondpare and full of hidden depths and that kind of allure that was a little ky but gave off ample aggressiveness. Alexander sat at the end of the long table, his leg crossed, his expression neutral as he rxed his back on the chair. Several Men on ck are sighted around the table as they all had a serious expression on. As expected, Knight found out that it was all a trap, which is a disadvantage to us Twenty five said as he gazed at the man who was still quiet.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. They had nned all these to make the Red Kings distracted for a while but that didnt change their initial goals. Alexander said calmly Lets go on with the initial n, Knight has something else in mind which we cant fathom but that shouldnt make us lower our guard but rather find counterattacks He said it as his eyes remained on the wall that was painted in silver color, which was rear. Phoenix gaze at Sly who was drafting something on his notepad before saying. Sly and i took some estimates and discover that, Knights mother must still be alive and we have already sent men to hunt her down but they so happen to collide with Grey Hound Alexander twitched his brows as he turn to face the man named Phoenix who just said out the word. Alexander dropped both legs on the ground as he stood up gracefully, his suit not wrinkled as he walk to the back of the chair Phoenix was sitting on. He said with a cold tone Have them retreat immediately In as much as he wanted to have a rtive of knight as hostage, he knew better. Knight was a very decisive person who can be crazy at times. He also had a weak spot which is Amelia and if he was to hold knights mother as a captive, Amelias life would be in danger. He had used this tactic before on knight but back then, he hadnt met Amelia. He couldnt do that anymore as he didnt want anything to get to Amelia. In fact, he was ready to face this head on without involving his wife and if anything was to happen to him, it would be his loss. Phoenix frown at Alexanders word and tried to say something but ended up swallowing his words but Sly. He could never read the handwriting on the wall I understand that you dont want to have any harme to Amelias way but you should know better that even if you dont do anything to harm Knight and want to go with the initial n, knight would still bite your toes and get Amelia first There was senses in what Sly said but Alexander still didnt want to take that risk. He just got his wife back by luck, and he wasnt ready to put her life in danger for his own problems. Ill double the securities instead Alexander said coldly. Knight can prate anywhere especially that ve boy of his named, Grey Hound Grey.Alexander muttered as his eyes shed with unknown danger lurking beneath those ck eyes that was brewing with unforetold thunderstorm. Gazing at Phoenix, Alexander gritted out Didnt I ask you to have the men retreat?? Phoenix swallowed hard and said calmly I already sent them a text message for them to He didntplete his words when his phone beeped due to an iing message and he looked down at it. Alexander walked back to his seat and roamed his eyes around the other men on the table before his gaze settled on the body of the guy sitting just three seats away from him. Have you contacted Earth yet?? Chain nodded as he said to Alexander.. Hes doing well over there and just fed me that Knight seems to be interested in. Gazing up at Alexander before lowering his head, he said with shaking voice .. in Madam Ron With those words, a displeased expression shed in Alexanders face as he said and why didnt you tell me that since?? Im sorry sir, I was waiting for you to conclude what you were saying with Phoenix Chain immediately bowed his head as his eyes shrieked in fear. Alexander closed his eyes as his jaw clenched, he opened it after a while before throwing his eyes at Phoenix You have something to say to me, right?? Phoenixs eyes darted as his back immediately soaked in sweat. Alexander could read bodynguage and could tell that Phoenix was hiding something even though he tried to mask his troubled expression well enough but Alexander already observed him. Phoenix nevertheless said as his back was straight The men I sent to get Knights mother. they Already have knights mother before Grey could get to her first Phoenix didnt dare to look at Alexander in the eye, he was expecting a lot of things at the moment. Sly held his breath as he waited for his two friends to sh with one killing the other. The other members stole secret gazes at Phoenix before dropping their heads but Alexs next words left everyone speechless. Not bad if we provoke them first! them finding out the shipment is a trap is already an hassle, they can as well find us there With that said, Alexander got up from his chair while sly let out the breathe he was holding in for a while now. Phoenix and the others got Alexanders message and understood clearly what he meant by that. Alexander walked out from the room while dropping these messages Chain follow up with the recent happenings in the different shores, Phoenix have more men go to the shore at the south that is under construction for there. Everything will end Leaving so soon??Sly asked as he got up to go visit the Catalyst web. Yeah.. going to my woman Alexander said as a smirk appeared on his face. Amelia Ron Amelia was still feeling mused as she sat on the chair facing the mirror, She was operating her phone but her mind still wandered to the man who came in few minutes ago. She gazed at the door of the bathroom as she smiled abit. She was so lonely after having dinner, It wasnt too long she went to meet the doctor and thanked him foring over. She smiled when the men thanked her also for calling the doctor over. They all look fully energized as they took their different stands, ready to vignt till dawn. She hadid on the bed, sighing from time to time, she got up from the bed and prayed a short prayer for the men who were currently on their toes as they would be having a rough day by tomorrow. She was surprised when the door was pushed open and there stood the man she was longing for. Whom she was missing for a while now even if it was just that afternoon he had gone out. She immediately sprang out of the bed and went to hug the man who was looking tired. She allowed him to go take a bath and he has being in there for just two minutes now. She was still thinking why he hade back, he had told her that he woulde for her after the whole deal was done and that had gotten her worried. In as much as she wanted to be by his side and protect him in any way she could but she knew she would only be a distraction to him. He would focus more on protecting her than himself and that could cost him a lot which she was afraid of. The bathroom door slowly opened and that sexy god walk out of the bathroom with the white towel wrapped around his waist. His hair dripping wet as the water from his cheekbone flowed freely to his chest and roam to his belly and collided with the towel on his waist. She didnt know when she swallowed hard and her throat bumped up and down. She was just gazing at his body like a moron, she couldnt avert her gaze as she stared at him with lustful eyes. Her eyes trailing down to his bony and slender legs that was looking so strong and fair. His skin glittering as it was wet and dripping. Skin looking soft and kissable, beckoning for the onlooker to give it a peck and delve into the sea of their lustful desires and a strong and possessive feeling tomit a sin with how dashing those translucent skin was. Dashing and sinfully beautiful. Earth to Wifey! Alexander snapped his fingers close to her face and she jolted from her wishful thinking. The snap of his finger brought her out of her world of fantasy and her face redden when she saw those teasing eyes he was throwing at her. Alexander couldnt contain his smile when he saw how her face was fixated on his body and those converting eyes that seems to want to bore a hole on his body. Up until now, he didnt bother about his body and how beautiful he was. He has seen women drool over him and he, himself was aware of his charms and how handsome he was, thanks to his parents strong gene. Up until now that he feels the value of his beauty, seeing that his beauty could captivate the woman he loves, he suddenly felt proud of himself now. He wanted to look good for her so she would be lost in his beauty and always stare at him. Cant get enough of me huh?? He asked teasingly as he walked towards her and her face redden even more. For some reasons, she felt that she was glued to the chair as she Watch him get close to her. He bent and held her chin, her eyes dropped to the floor as she yed with the helm of her pajama shirt. Alexander used his thumb finger to rub her cheek as he smiled at her shy nature which was really hard toe by. She could be fierce at times, she could be vengeful, she could be so angry and cunning.Material ? N?velDrama.Org. But all those qualities and characters are shown to people who arent close with her and those who try to step on her. But this character.. This shy and cute nature. These are the qualities only him enjoys. he was the only one who gets to see it. And he was the only one that could make her so red and drool. Amelia met his eyes and he quickly pecked her lips. Missed me?? He asked in a low tone as he said seducing her in the process with his hoarse and deep voice that was like melody in her ear. His husky voice rang in her ear like a piano that was ying a love rhythm. Mhm Amelia didnt deny it as she confirmed what he said, she had truly missed her husband and she wasnt so shy to admit it. A wide smile filled Alexanders face as he kissed her but this time, deeply as he pried open her mouth and slide his tongue into her hot mouth. Amelia didnt fail to reciprocate the intensity of his warm kiss. She let out a moan in his mouth that got him fired up as he held the back of her head, pressing his lips on hers, wanting more. He was lusting for her, wanting to have her whole. He just couldnt get enough of her as he slide his tongue and their tongues intertwined with each others as they sucked on each others lip in a heated kiss. A-alex Amelia couldnt contain the moan she couldnt hold in as she called out his name in both pleasure and love. Alexander licked her lips and went for her neck and sucked on her throat before going to her nape. He left hickeys there as he kept sucking on the free spots and he left a lot of hickeys there as if he was purposely leaving marks behind. iming what was his, setting boundaries and telling the world that she was his. His wife! The Dons wife!! Alexander Rons Love and the woman who had captivated his heart! Melted his icy cold nature and made him alive again.! His Amelia Ron. Breaking And Entry Letting go of her lips and holding back the fire and desire for her body, he took a step back as he let the woman catch her breath as her chest kept moving up and down. His gaze was on her as he stared at her lovingly. Amelia felt all jelly, she didnt know why he was leaving her hanging when she was at the peak of pleasure. She finally caught her breathe and looked at the man who was also looking at her. She could see that love in his eyes, that love that made her weak in the knees and wanting for him.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. His love for her was evident in everything he does, his words, his actions, his eyes, his gesture, his gaze on her body and the longing feeling he had for her, the desire toe running back to her and the need to protect her, and the things he does to her body which she had never imagined or thought of. The magic he performed whenever he touches her skin and how her skin feels like it was set on fire and that every part his hands touches felt as if it was burnt. She loved this man and she was proud to be his wife even if they started with the wrong foot but love conquered every odds And that she was sure and aware of. Sorry for keeping you waiting Alexander said as he stood close to her and she just nod without thinking. Huh?? She asked with round eyes, not knowing what she nodded for. She knew she heard words but couldntprehend what he had said and the reason she had nod. Alexander smiled as he turn to go wear his clothes. Amelia sighed deeply and stood up to goy down on the bed but she couldnt help but stand again and stared at the man of the back as he took two steps away from her and just then, she was startled when he suddenly turn to face her with a tight fist towards her. Amelias brow twitched in confusion as she watched him made a tight fist towards her. He was pointing the tight fist at her and she didnt know what he meant by that. Amelia raised a brow at him questioningly and he just shook his head and said. Its a tactic dummy Alexander rolled his eyes at her before saying a tight fist means to Stand still and dont move Amelia swallowed hard as she watched him say what he was saying. Okay lets go again Alexander said and dropped his hand and turn to leave and Amelia groaned Im definitely not doing that now you Amelia was saying this as she tried to walk towards their bed but before Amelia couldplete her words and get to where the bed was, Alexander stretched his hand again, pointing the tight fist to her and she subconsciously stood still. Alexander nodded with a smile and Amelia face palmed. This time around, Im not gonna point it out to you, you just have to see it by my side he added again and you have to walk towards me Alexander dropped his hands by his side, he wasnt making a fist as he stared at Amelia and Amelia just stared back at him as she took a step towards him. Slowly, he made a tight fist close to himself and Amelias eyes trailed down to the fist and she halted. Good and this is Alexander took his hand out for her to see, he intertwined his forefinger and his middle finger when it release it, making it face the ground, it means to squat, okay?? Yes Amelia nodded as she took a step back and watched Alexander dropped his hands again. Amelia made her way towards him again and Alexander made a tight fist and she halted and just then, slowly removing them, he let his hand face the ground as if showing the ground his hand and she didnt waste time to squat down. Alexander intertwined his middle and forefinger together and Amelia subconsciously got up. A smile emerged on Alexanders lip as he said approvingly and how did you know that to intertwine the fore and middle finger is to stand up?? Amelia shrugged, even if she didnt know the reason he was teaching her all these weird techniques, she just felt that he wanted her to stand with that gesture. I just thought that you wanted me to stand Amelia said truthfully and Alexander nodded again and walked away to go wear his clothes. Amelia sighed and went toy on the bed. C C C C Dont you think we are going against the master?? a man asked fearfully as he stared at the man in all ck who looked imposing. Grey Hound snarled at the man Master would appreciate meter for this, just think that we are doing all these for the team okay?? We have just few hours by our side, lets get this done and over with The other men there still had doubt written on their faces but they all had toply as Grey was like a second lord to them after their master, knight Cyrus. Greys eyes darkened when he thought of what happened earlier and on no ount should any one tell the master that we couldnt find his granny, thats the least problem we have on our table at the moment Grey said as he stared at the distance. They were all in a room with dim light, Grey had brought them there. it looks like an hideout. When they had reached the old building Knights mother was living in, they discovered that some people might have gotten there before them as the woman was missing. It was needless to say who was behind it, its only the Alphas who could provoke them that much. There were about eight men including Grey Hound. I think Earth is suspicious, he is just a new recruit from the camp and now he his already handling important affairs in the gang! A member suddenly said with a slight frown. Dont you know that he is good at almost everything he does?? Master cyrus sees him as a great tool Another member said. Grey frown in displeasure Can you guys be more sensitive?? The five of you would be the ones going to abduct Amelia Ron so get ready! The five men who were appointed nodded as they have already prepared for this day. And you.. pointing at the man named Baron Baron, you have another task almost simr to theirs but you would be the n B in case anything goes wrong and doesnt go as nned! Baron also nod in understanding. Greyhounds eyes narrowed in a deadly manner as he muttered Its going to be Breaking and Entry! Seduce Me! All Of Me Alexander was sitting on the couch as his hand typed away on his phone screen. He looked really busy withptop on the table close by and his phone buzzing with calls. Amelia was on the bed, she rested her head in the pillow as she lie on one side of her body to the bed, she used her elbow to support her weight on the bed, Staring at the man who was busy. She suddenly felt pity for him, he was a very busy man with little time to rest. Alexander was so focused as he sent message and receiving messages, Calls came in as well. Just then, he got the important call he was waiting for from someone he was eagerly waiting to hear from. Sir. all Set The males voice came from the other side. Alexander just hummed with no expression and he got up from the couch, his gaze burning with something unfathomable., an unknown emotion. Amelia gaze at the clock on the wall, it was almost morning as the time was 2AM in the morning. They both havent slept and Amelia highly doubted if they would even get any sleep. Alexander had persuaded her earlier that she should sleep but she wasntfortable with that idea of sleeping. No good wife would want to sleep knowing her husband is passing through some hard times and something as worst as this. Though Alexander didnt show any ounce of fear or difort but she could tell how exhausted he was. He was already so slim as before and she wanted to do more for him but she suddenly felt useless at the moment as she couldnte up with anything she could be of help. Amy Alexander called out to her softly as he walk towards the bed she wasying on. He was wearing a ck shirt and a ck torso to match, even if it was night time, he was dressed as if he would be going somewhere soon. Amelia rose up from the bed as she ced her head on the headboard, expecting a lot of things but she didnt let him say anything before she beat him to it. Alex, I dont know what to do, I suddenly feel useless. I should Atleast help you with something. Amelia sighed in desperation, she lowered her head and Alexander smiled a shallow smile as he held her head and rubbed her hair lovingly and Amelia looked up at him. You are already doing alot for me Amy you staying safe, being by my side and being my wife is already enough, just let me do the thinking while you do.. Alexander smirked a little as he held her chin and pecked her lips while you take control of tonights exercise Amelia twitched her brows in confusion Night exercise?? Whats that about?? I dont wanna do any exercise yet!! Amelia sucked and Alexanderughed a bit. He felt amused, she could be intelligent and interesting at times while other times, she seems muddleheaded. Night exercise. Alexander trailed off as his gaze wandered to her breast that was covered in thinyers I dont mean the exercise you exhaust your limbs.. Alexanders eyes moved to her eyes as he stared at her intently, eyes brimming with something tantalizing, love brewing at the bottom. I mean, exercises when you get to feel like youre being electrocuted. the type that makes you scream out my name and beg for more The more the words came out, the more Amelia was starting to turn all red. This was the type of exercise he meant??!! Exercise in bed what do you think huh?? Alexanders grinned at her and she smacked his shoulder yfully while blushing, forgetting their problems for a while.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. I think youre a big pervert! Amelia interjected and Alexander hummed. I suddenly like that word called pervert. how about I be your private pervert, Im gonna suck you whole! You arent being serious right now are you?? Amelia rolled her eyes at his cheeky words. You can try, I dont mind! Ill forsake my duties for you and trust me when I say.. Im. gonna. turn. your. throat. to. a. daycare..! Amelias eyes widen in shock, her face redden, ears turn pink as she felt hot all over That. was. too. Deep!! Amelia muttered stiffly as she stared at the man before her who was smiling as if he was having fun. Come on Amy you take things too serious.. Alexanderughed heartily as he rubbed her hair with care written all over his face, he wanted tough to forget all those problems waiting for him and the threats lurking behind. Forgetting all that for a While, he said Seriously Im not gonna choke you with my junior brother, we will go the right way. Alexander decided to bring down the womans mind. He knew what she was thinking when he had mentioned daycare. Amelia let out a sigh of relief thought you wanted and had the intention of turning me into a baby making machine Amelia rxed her back on the headboard. Alexander gazed at her breast intently Not a baby making machine though, I would love to have a whole basketball team W-what???!!! Basketball team?? You must be insane right now!! Amelia red hard at him. Alexander shrugged that was my initial thought but Im not going to do that, you get to decide besides it your body but then again. Can you please stop seducing me already??, Im getting turned on! Saying that, Alexanders eyes almost prated into Amelias satin gown that was barely covering her full breast. Amelia immediately used the duvet to cover her body, revealing only her head as she didnt want to start something she couldnt finish but she wondered how she was seducing him without doing anything. Im definitely not seducing you Ron! Im not doing anything! Amelia retorted as she wrapped inside the duvet. Alexander sighed as he stared at her Thats the problem. you dont have to do anything before you get me seduced and just by looking at your lips makes me have a thousand thoughts about you and all I could possibly do to you! You make me insane Alexander lowered his gaze from her face as he felt that any moment he spent looking at her was a risk, and he wasnt sure if he could control his urges anymore. Amelia blushed a bit as she stared at the side profile of the man who was looking the other way, her eyes brimmed with so much love for him. His side profile was so beautiful that she felt proud that she had him all to herself and she could do anything with him. Not bad! Then you have to Come back safely and have all of me Alexander turn his gaze back on her as his eyes shed with something dangerous You dont start what you cant finish, because when I get back I might devour you whole Madam Ron Amelia smirked lets see about that, I wanna see you in action she said it but her throat was tight. She was trying to buy some time with him, she knew he would be leaving soon but she still wanted to take a good look at him. She was. Scared So scared of what might happen It felts just like the day she was going to that columbarium and Alexander was having this weird feelings and persuading her to stay back for he wasntfortable with her going there. She was suddenly in his shoes now and true to what he had said, something did happen and that broke them apart for a while and that had caused a lot of damages to her man. She just hoped this nagging and unpleasant feeling was just a mere feeling due to fear. Alexander couldpletely guess what she was thinking and she saying those words was to remind him to take care of himself. You dont have to worry, just trust your man. Im not a novice Wifey his tone was deep as the voice rolled out from deep his throat and Amelia swallowed hard. Hearing those words, Amelia sniffed in her tears and showed a pained smile as she said with creaked voice Please take care of yourself Alex. i-i cant live without you by my side, I highly doubt if Ill pass a day without you so pleasee back safe okay?? Thats okay Amy dont cry, you trust me right?? Alexander asked and Amelia immediately nodded multiple times. Alexander smiled a little as he rubbed her hair while arranging it in the process just wait for my signal if that makes youfortable Alexander said, handing a pen drive to her and she removed her hand from under the duvet and collected it. The pen drive from the cemetery incident ! Amelia gasped in shock, she remembered this pen drive, it was the one Alexander had given to her the day her father had told her toe meet him in the cemetery her mother was buried but she was attacked by the men Ash moon had Hired from SSA. This was the pen drive she had used tomunicate with Alexander when she was at the southern gate. Keep it with you always and here He hand her a pepper spray you would be needing this, my men are close by, some are in the house so dont worry, twelve have everything under control in the mansion He said with a slight nod before getting up from the bed. Amelia stared at him for a while, Alexander also stared back at her. He suddenly felt he was missing something important, he watch Amelia stare at him and he smiled a little before bending down to her level and captured her lips in a passionate kiss. Their breathings got mixed together as Alexander gripped her head tightly, he pressed his lips on hers and she gave him ess to her mouth and let him explore. Their tongues continued to dance in unison as they enjoyed each others warm kiss, as if sealing a silent promise, Alexander sucked on her lower lips before going for the upper one and sucked on it. Amelia couldnt help but roam her hands on his ck hair and she gripped his hair tightly, pushing her head towards him and wasnt willing to let go of his lips too quickly. Amelia let herself go as she wrapped both arms around his neck, bringing him close to herself as she moan his name inside his mouth. Alexander enjoyed the kiss but he knew he had to stop there, as Amelia tried to suck on his lips again, he inclined his head abit, his eyes facing down as he didnt look at her again. Amelia felt a sense of disappointment wash over her but she got the message and held back. Alexander felt regretful for depriving her her rights but he knew that if he was to continue kissing her any further, it will be hard for him to stop when he get started with her. He must get to knight before the doges barking. Im sorry his voice trailed off as he got up slowly, Amelias eyes followed him as he stood up from the bed. Alexander made his hands into tight fist, his head down as he bite his lips before facing her Ill be off now.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. Amelia nodded as she looked at him. Alexander also nod you take care of yourself too he said and walked out of the room and Amelia slumped down on the bed as she grumbled. Why was this man made to suffer this much?? Cant he have a peaceful time?? This whole mafia stuff sucks, Amelia felt her heart wrenching for him. She gaze at the pen drive and the pepper spray. She held them close and just then a sound came from the other side of the pen drive. This is Hubby.. Amy I love you, always know that! Amelia smiled a bitter smile as she held onto the pen drive. She let out a sigh and rxed back on the bed, she couldnt fathom or arrange her thoughts, she got up from the bed and went to turn off all the lights in the room and sat in the couch. She always liked to stay in the dark whenever she was nervous or feeling down and needed some time to think. Meanwhile, outside, Alexander walked towards Twelve who was holding a gun, seeing Alexandering, Twelve ran towards him and bowed Don.. Have all the men at the back house to leave the vicinity, take them to the room close to my master bedroom, Chantel will take you there, have the men stay there to protect my wife.. And the others should be at the front, anything thates up. report to me with immediate effect, understood??! Alexs eyes was cold as he said with haughtinessced in his voice. Twelve didnt waste any time to immediately respond with a Yes Donhe didnt question Alexander. Alexander didnt say anything as he was about to walk away when his eyes caught the men around the ce, some were lurking in the dark while some stood close to the mansion, some were close to the fountain area, they looked vignt as they maintained their post. His brows joined together as he turn back at twelve when was thest time you guys got treatment from doctor Walker?? Isnt that about three months or so?? Alexander felt tired all of a sudden, he totally forgot to have mr Walkere over to the house. No sir, we were all treated yesterday Alex raised a brow in confusion. Madam Ron called the doctor over! Twelvepleted his statement and a look of surprise shed in Alexanders eyes but it disappeared without a trace and a smile emerged on his face as he turn back and went into his car. It didnt take long as he drove out of thepound. As he drove out.. A piercing and prating gaze followed the car before it return to the window in Alexanders house.. Alexanders bedroom window Hmmm She must be in there. The voice trailed off as cold glint pass by the persons eyes. Earth Phoenix Alexanders deep voice called out as he ced the phone on hand free mode. Phoenixs voice came from the other end Don X Is mahogany ready?? Alexander asked as he bend the steering wheel as he took the left turn. It was dark outside and almost morning. Yes sir, shes as good as ready for the show Good, its time transport her over, the way is clear and Im sure Knight cyrus must have missed his sex buddy Alexanders eyes was dark as his eyes roamed around the road, the corner of his mouth lifted into a deadly cold arc. That will be a pleasure Phoenix chuckled from the other end, totally in a good mood. Alexander ended the call as his eyes narrowed, he took a right turn and drove into the high way. The wheels of his tires drove smoothly on the tiled road as it sped through. Shore of a dense ind. A man with straight back stood there, his appearance was shallow and as well hard to approach. He gave off the feeling of being devilishly charming, alluring but also brutal, savage and bloodthirsty. His eyes roamed around the ce as a smirk form on his lip, his both hand tucked into his pant pockets. Proud of you son the man stated coldly as his eyes looked over the sea that was calm with the cold air and smell of salt filled the air. The shore was filled with different and big ships and ferries. The shore was under construction as there were warning signs and restrictions were pasted everywhere. Lots of boxes were arranged and transporter cans. Lorraine Ron stood there for a while before taking his phone out.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. His finger tapped on the phone as he called a number. His frame just like that of his son, Alexander Ron. Same eyes that gave off a beautiful mist making people who see them find it to be clever and give them a special feeling. Alexander was the replica of his father, a retired mafia and a legend in the business world. They are heading to the south, I drop it here, you do your thing Lorraine said calmly and after saying his piece, he dropped the phone into his pocket back and he walked away slowly, blending into the darkness of the southern Shoreline. Far ahead, lots of ships were driving towards the southern shore which could be considered illegal because the shore was under construction. In the human sense, this ce was supposed to be guarded and filled with security men but the question is.. Why are there no security men??.. Deep!! A figure jumped down from the high fence as it look ahead. The figure was in all ck, with a mask on that was invincible due to the darkness at the back area. The figure ran along as it hid close to the penthouse that was dark at the back of Alexanders house. The back cameras seems to be broken, so that gave the figure the heart to move towards the main building. The figure stered itself close to the wall of the house as he squatted, trying to hide from the guards that was walking at the front yard. There were no security men at the back house but because of both naivety and and as well hurry. the figure couldnt figure out that small detail that was amiss. The figure pressed a button On His watch and waited for a while. He sneak towards the back again and where the fence he climbed was located and just then his eyes shone a bit when he saw the other men jumping in as well. They were in all ck as well while one amongst them was carry a small bag over his shoulder. The first figure beckoned for them toe towards him and they quickly walk towards the first figure. Getting to where the first figure was, the other six men that joined also squatted with him. Earth roamed his eyes around the six men that just came to join and his eyes darkened behind the mask when he felt something was amiss. Earth gaze around before turning to the men and asked wheres Grey Hound?? At first, he wasnt part of the n of abducting Amelia Ron but when he saw reasons with Grey who had convinced him, he agreed to it and now he couldnt find Grey amongst the group. Scraper gazed at Earth and said with a low tone that came as a form of whisper He will be our backup Earths eyes shed with something the others couldnt fathom and they werent even aware when his expression changed but he quickly masked it as he led the way and all the men ran along towards the next window at the side. For some reasons, nobody was there so they found a way to get close to the window and the window just so happen to be opened which was a very quick way for them to aplish their missions. Scarlet frowned dont you guys think this is a set up?? Everything seems so easy what if the Don knows we would being tonight?? Another member amongst them nudged Scraper in the arm with a tight re that couldnt be seen since the figure was also wearing a ck mask. What you mean Is that theres a mole amongst us?? Come on dummy, lets quickly get this done and over with and quickly return to the base before the master finds out we are not there the figure said to Scraper who swallowed hard and nodded nevertheless. Earth didnt say a word all these while as his eyes was moving around, trying to figure out a way to get in without being noticed or caught. Lets climb over the pole there and jump over that window at the second floor earth said finally and he earned a frown from the others. What?? He eyed them when he saw their questioning gazes on him. This is the first floor and the window here is opened and just from my inspection, this is a store room so its safe to pass through this window do you wish to get us all caught?? Earth rolled his eyes behind the mask this could be a trap for crying out loud, baron you go over the left side of the mansion and find a way to get in and make sure you hunt down Mrs Ron after saying that, earth looked at the others and said whosing?? Cause Im moving already.. The others sighed and followed behind Earth with no choice while baron left towards the left wing of the mansion toplete his own task. Dangerous And Dark At the same time, two figures also came into the building and left through the darkness and blend with it. Few minutester, Twelve walked towards the back where the fence was and he inspected the ce for a while before turning around to the leave the ce. Amelia sat on the couch for what seems like two hours before getting up and was about to go have a rest when she sighted a shadow shed behind the curtains as it seems to be trying to climb into the room and her eyes constricted.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. The room was dark and she held her breath and tiptoed to where the pepper spray was and grabbed it along with the pen drive. She quietly walk back to the couch and sat there. The figure sessfully jumped into the room after much efforts and Scraper gaze around the room for a while. This seems to be the masters bedroom from the look of the room and how the air seem to be kind of different in here, though he couldnt see the interior of the room but he could guess that the room would be one of a kind. He had wanted to decline climbing to this window first but that damn earth just wanted to be his nemesis for the night time. Earth had instructed everybody to go different ways which he also did but why he (scraper) had to end up in the lions mouth got him creeped out. But he nevertheless toughened up and walked towards the bed, his eyes on the bed and he tried to be careful not to knock something down as the room was dark. Alexander and His wife must be fast asleep by now so he had to be careful as he was in the room they were. He didnt want to have any contact with the demon that was rumored as ruthless and brutal. The only thing on his mind was to quickly get to the door and walk out of this suffocating hell hole without the couples on the bed, knowing. He didnt think he could do this alone so he wanted to safe his head first and go look for earthter and bring him over to the room so that they both might probably do something about the person they were sent to abduct. Amelias eyes followed the figure who was slowly making his way towards the door and she ced her hand on themp close by and ced the tip of her finger on the switch button. She didnt know why she felt that this particr figure was weird and as well stupid as he was just trying to escape the room. Wasnt he here to harm somebody, probably her and not Alexander. A very cold voice rang out In The room which jolted the scared scraper. He was just a newbie in the gang as he was brought from the camp few months ago. Came to find me huh?? Amelias cold voice rang out of the room as she turned on themp close by and it immediately illuminated the once dark room. No Scraper didnt know when he had said that subconsciously, he wanted to cry as his hand hung in the air. He was just about to open the door and escape, he had thought he would be safe as he saw hope just close up but it was shattered by just that light that was turned on making him want to soak his pant with his pee. Amelia raised a brow displeasingly as she stared at the back of the intruder who seems like a kid that was caught stealing meat from his mothers pot rather than a mafia or a burr. Scraper turn slowly as he ced his hand on his back, he held onto his gun ready to defend himself. He frown when he saw a petite girl there with a fierce look and prating eyes, he almost snickered as he scoff at himself mockingly. He couldnt believe he was scared of this small woman from the start, if only he knew this mission would be so easy, he had thought the Don would probably be in the room but no. Scraper rolled his eyes and dropped his hands from his gun and took slow steps towards Amelia Im not here to hurt you, lets just make this quick as you cooperate with me okay?? Be a good girl Amelia hide the snarl on her face as she stared at the ignorant fool that was approaching. Scraper didnt think much of the little woman who was trying to act tough as he neglected the idea of using a gun as he felt that he would be wasting a precious bullet if he used it on this woman so he just walked towards her as she seems unarmed. Be good girl. just cooperate okay?? And Im not gonna hurt you yes thats it.. he said as he spread both hands open To quickly grab the Little woman. Amelia was so angry as her eyes shone with a deadly glint, she was so angry at this fool who was treating her like a fool or a small kid. Her Phoenix like eyes now resembled the luster of seawater, calm and serene, eyes glinted like resplendent starlight. As beautiful as porcin from china, allowed to look at but not allowed to be trifled with. Scraper was startled seeing that look for a while but before he could register what was happening, he felt a tinging sensation That hurt in his eyes, tears brimmed in his eyes as he held onto it with both hands. Fuck.. he cursed underneath his breath as he couldnt open his eyes due to the pain he was feeling. His face was red within seconds, he was so confused and couldnt fix the puzzle of how she could be so fast to spray him a pepper spray. It happened so fast for him to defend himself. It really tinge and hurt in the eyes. Amelia didnt waste any time as she gave him a uppercut and used her leg to hit him in the groin and he let out a painful cry as he knelt on the cold tiled ground and just then the door busted open as a very dangerous and dark presence emerged into the room. The eyes of the man shone with so much hate and anger.. Mission #1 Accomplished Madam there are intruders in the mansion, let me handle him, the others have been caught! Twelve said as he made his way to the groaning man on the floor, his expression darkened. He wasnt going to spear those who wanted him to fail in his assigned duty of protecting the masters wife. Scraper felt fear for the first time, being held captive by their mortal enemy, he already guessed his fate as he would be made a meat soon. But how the others got caught felt funny, it seems as if they were already waiting for them toe and fall into this trap. Twelve manhandled Scraper as he dragged him out not after giving him a dirty punch in the face saying Daree after The Dons Wife?? You must have a death wish! Scraper swallowed hard as he tried to fight back but Twelve was fast as he induced in with the injection in his hand. Amelia felt toozy to deal with it so she saidGet him out of here already and please tighten the security to avoid this type of inconveniences in the future Twelve nodded and dragged the already passed out Scraper by the cor and when he got to the door post, Resolver came and helped him carry the guy away. Amelia sighed as she sat back down and after thinking for a while, she stood up and walked out of the room and directly entered Alexanders study and sat on his personal chair and rxed her back there, thinking hard with both eyes closed. Meanwhile outside, Twelve added more men and had men go over to the back house and stationed there. Resolver took all the five men not excluding, Earth, Scraper and three others but one was not there, Baron And also, the two figures that came inter was nowhere to be found and twelve wasnt aware of that. //|| Crack.. The door of the masters bedroom was pushed open silently and a figure walked in, from the silhouette, it was that of a woman. The room was a bit dimmed and dark as well as she was in a casual wear of ck high waist trouser and a white top and she tied her hair in a ponytail. She took two steps towards the bed and stood close to the bed for a while and just then the door opened again with sound not audible enough and another figure came in too. The second figure walked in silence as he sneaked on the woman, the woman close to the bed frowned as her eyes constricted. The second figure immediately recognized the woman from her back view since the figure had seen the womans photo beforeing. The woman close to the bed was no other but Amelia. Yes that was right! And just then, the second figure ced an handkerchief on her nose, She didnt bother to fight back as she inhaled the strong smell that hit her six senses and she immediately nked out. The second figures silhouette was that of a man who was in all ck as well. Outside the mansion, Twelve called Alexander and fed him thetest update and what transpired in the house. Didnt I tell you to make sure the men are out of the back house??!! What were you thinking??! Alexander gritted out those words and Twelve was startled, didnt he want to protect his wife, why make her be in danger?? S-sir your wife was almost kidnapped by those men And from the looks of things, they came in through the back fence and I just discovered that the light has being broken and I dont know how that happened as it was working before you left! Twelve said in exasperation, his forehead was sweating profusely, his duties was to protect his masters wife and now the master who had assigned the duty to him is now making him go against what he was ordered to do. I know about that and I was the one who broke the light at the back house and so get that your dumb head and instruct those men To leave the back fence now! Alexander said as he gripped the gun in his hand with eyes cold, he was sitting on his chair calmly with other men who had their heads down in fright. Alexanders eyes was dark as he roamed his eyes around the ce that was gloomy. This was a dpidated building close to the southern shore where his goods would bending. Sir you are endangering your wife by doing that! Let me worry about that! Shes my wife and not yours so do not question what I do about her and how I choose to go about it! You suddenly start to worry about her than I do!Alexander said with venomced in his tone as he berated twelve.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Even if they kidnap her, dont do anything! Alexander added and that statement startled Twelve, he took the phone from his ear and checked the number if he had called the wrong one. He couldnt believe his master who always put the safety of his wife first would do such a thing and utter this type of shocking words. Doesnt he love Mrs Amelia anymore??! Have the men evacuate the back house immediately! And do that with immediate effect, I give you two minutes to be done! Alexander snapped at him before directly ending the call. Twelves eyes constricted but he nevertheless went to have the men evacuate there. He got questioned by the puzzled men and he sighed saying thats the order from sir! Twelve constricted his eyes as he walked away from the men but he hadnt taken four steps when he stumbled upon a person he never expected to see in the middle of the night in Alexanders house. You- Twelve called out absentmindedly as he gazed at the man who shrugged back at him nonchntly with both hands in his pocket. Meanwhile the figure dragged Amelia and ced her above his shoulder and walk out of the room and he escaped through the door and came out from the back door and left through the dark with the unconsciousdy with him. Mission Aplished!! Authors Note C C C C C Take note of this incident guys and how it took ce for future purposes. Whats Alexander Doing?? Cant believe he actually said that and has interior motive against Amelia, his wife.. Amelia would feel betrayed when she finds out!! Tsk tsk. Poor Amy Quite Special That bastard.. Knight gritted out those words with so much hatred and anger. His back to the five men in the room, he gaze out of the window with both hands inside his pocket. His sleeve was attached to his body as he looked well defined with a beautiful back view. All the men had their heads to the floor with their backs filled with perspiration due to fear. Have the ships evacuated the ind already?? Knight asked while still looking outside. It was almost afternoon, his eyes were bloodshot due to the sleep deprivation and the all nighter he did. Ye-yes sir, the rets Ships embarked towards the south as at the early hours of the day and we are keeping things under control for a smooth sailing of the Men specially selected! A man said from amongst the men, he didnt dare to look at Knight as he was saying all these. Knight slowly turn making a gush of wind blow inside the room and the hairs on the mens skin stood erect as if the skin could attest to the fact that a dangerous man was present. Knights eyes were so dark and clouded with hate. Its been twenty four hours and Grey Hound havent reported back about my Granny Knight smirked and the men felt like suffocated and wishing for the holes to open up and swallow them whole. And six men are gone from the group sure that bastard is testing my patience! Knight walked towards his table and took the chain from the table and smoked it. The air gushed out of his mouth and nose, his face so beautiful and clean. He looked more like an handsome bloodsucker, sinful and dashing at the same time like a Demi god. Knight smirked as he gazed at the door and swept his gaze around the men and walk towards the ceiling to floor window again and he gazed down from there. His eyesnded on the ck SUV that just came into thepound and he snarled Fool But his eyes shed when he saw the person who Grey hound and Baron had brought along with them. Amy.. Knights eyes clouded as he felt vexed and an indescribable feeling washed over him, gripping his heart as he felt suffocated seeing them blindfold Amelia and tied her hands together. Baron lifted her and ced her on his shoulder and Knight felt like breaking those arms he used in touching her. He had always wanted to see this little fierce pumpkin, but not this way He wanted to meet her and hang out with her and get to be with her some more. He liked Amelia ever since. His eyes turn frozen as he turn to look at the men in the room and he said with a very bone chilling tone Get. Out. Hurried footsteps echoed as the men didnt waste a single minute as they all scurried away for fear of their lives. They opened the door and they all left but just as thest person walked out, another person came in. Grey hound walked into the room and walked towards Knight but keeping a safe distance as he didnt get close to the table. Knight turn slowly to the man who just walked in. His eyesnded on the man in front of him Fucker! Grey swallowed hard as his throat bumped up and down, his hands behind his back as he faced the ground. He was aware of the fact that his master must have known about all he did behind his back but he wouldnt regret it, he already got what he wanted. Grey. Hound. you fool!! Knight said as he dropped his chain on the table, his aura changed as the room felt like it was closing in on Grey hound. Greyhounds breathe hitched as he prepared to face the worst but he knew Knight wouldnt do anything much to him as this was a critical time.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. Knight needed him to run some things and he was the mostpetent. Knight smirked coldly I know why you are so brazen now! Yes thats right, I wont be able to do some certain things to you as you have a lot to do for me but.. Knight walk towards Grey who had already subconsciously held his breathe, knight walked to his side and he stood there for a while. Grey couldnt look at the man who was standing at his side as his back was straight. Grey.. knight called out low as he turn his face a bit to take in greys side profile. His eyes cold you should have known better.. Greyhounds eyes constricted as he felt something was amiss, an unknown fear hit his back as he turn to look at Knight Cyrus. Cyrus shed him a smile that was not yet a smile. Knight chuckled and walked towards his table I cant hurt you for the mean time but I can still take something away from you With that said, Grey snapped his eyes at Knight as his eyes turn red, his veins popped up and then a bang sound echoed in the room with hurried footsteps. Le-let me go! Let your hands off me! A girl cried out as the two burly men dragged her by her arms into the study room and Grey couldnt turn to face her. His mind in a turmoil as he stood there. The men dragged the girl towards the table as well, close to where Grey was standing. The girl looked so petite and small with a clear brown eye ball, she was so cute with her hair into ponytails. Grey felt his heart clenched as he balled his fist in anger. Knight smirked seeing the little Cutie that was brought in. Knight made slow steps towards the girl as he walk pass the front of Grey before getting to where the girl was. Grey clenched his teeths together as he stood with a tight frown, his legs seems glued to the ground. A suffocating feeling pressed hard on his chest. Knight walked towards the girl and examined her for a while, he walked to her side and shook his head, saying Never thought your types were cuties tsk tsk I must say Grey, your taste is quite special Shore Grey fumed within but he knew he couldnt do anything, he should have thought of his little lover before taking that rash decision. Knight gazed at the girl in both amusement and displeasure A cook in my territory?? Argh Grey hound you really beat my imagination but well its not bad Knight smirked as he walked towards Grey with a devilish smile on his face, he got close to Grey who had his head down but this time, not in fear but to suppress his rage. Knight held Greyhounds shoulder and whisper I think you are quite good, tell me. how does it feel banging a cutie?? Huh?? Tell me, do you love fucking a small cutie?? Awwn I can imagine that scene a resounding and coldugh rang out in the room as Knight walk towards the table in amusement. Grey felt so regretful especially when he gazed at the small girl who was crying. She wasnt a child though but a twenty year old girl who was the youngest and most bullied cook in the den. She looked so young and innocent with those round eyes and big forehead, she was short making her look like a baby. I thought you liked them wild and sexy, a sex maniac but anyways. theres nothing bad though, i guess you only wanted to go for an adventure right??.. knight said as his smile slowly died down and Grey had a bad premonition as he raised his head to look at Knight. But I think it all has to end now.. knight said as he took the ck gun slowly from the table with cold eyes. No-no Grey please let me go sir, I dont want to die please.. the girl sobbed in fear as she saw the gun, she tried to break free from the mens clutches but their were too strong. Her legs felt wobble as she cried hard, turning and begging Grey to help her. Grey couldnt even utter a word as he stared at Knight in disbelief. Knight smiled at Grey but the smile didnt reach his eyes. Sir.. Hush now Grey take it and get this done since we have to leave for the east few minutes from now, and Im sure you wont want to waste any time.. knight handed the gun to Grey as he nodded at Grey to take it. No no no.. the girl couldnt help but let the tears pour out as she got choked up in her tears, she was just a lonely girl with no parents, she didnt have anybody but she was finally happy when she thought she found love but she should have known better.. A mafia remains a mafia They were all brutal and theyck the organ called Heart. Theyre all so vile and cruel. Grey took the gun with shaky hands but he knew he had no option, within him he was boiling in anger but he knew there really was no two ways about this. He was a mafia and not a weakling. Grey turn towards The maid who was struggling, Grey rose the gun to her head and she cried more and wanted to escape but Grey was already hellbent as he muttered its all going to be over soon Grey whispered to her Im sorry.. Knight frowned in utter displeasure as he stood close to the table and watched how Grey was going to handle this You are now so weak?? Then how are you going to face Alexander?? How are you going to revenge against him and avenge the brothers we lost!?? Knight added more spice and Greyhounds eyes shrieked as he muttered Alexander Ron. With that, Greyhounds eyes turn cold as he said to the little maid Im gonna miss being inside your hole.. With that, a loud bang echoed in the room and a thud sound followed as the maid fell on the ground with a hole on her forehead. Blood gushing out of the hole as the maid lie lifeless on the cold floor and Grey was just looking at her. His eyes devoid any emotions as he turn to look at knight, meeting his gaze he said Done, can we leave?? He asked and knight smiled dangerously as he patted Grey the shoulder as he collected back his gun. You did well Grey, now you are ready, Remember rules.. Do not trust easily! Grey looked deeply at knight before nodding slowly with a hum. Sweeping his gaze at the men who were still standing around the ce, Knight barked at them get her out of here! And call somebody toe clean up all these mess Yes sir! The men said simultaneously as they immediately bent over and carried the corpse of the girl out of the room. Now take me to her! Knight ordered and Grey immediately got the message and turn to leave with knight walking behind him. He had a cold expression On as the two had different thoughts running through their minds at the same time. Knight smirked again as he walked towards the long corridor to go see Mrs Ron What a sight! Knight immediately felt all good that he had something over Alexander now.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. Lets see how he could be so proud again!! Knight snorted as he walked quietly to where she was kept. ???? You all can leave now! Alexander ordered as the numerous men climbed into the ships in the southern shore. George also followed as they were all in ck, with The alpha logo on their shirts. The Alpha was always separated from the Square silencer assassins, he didnt want people to know that he was the owner of that ck market so he never mixed them on any circumstances. Alexander stood close to the shore as he watched the men moved things into the shore. Different types of guns and bombs, snipers and daggers, all manner of harmful weapons. Alexander walked away from the shore side and happened to meet up with Phoenix who was justing in. Done with the task?? Alexander asked immediately and Phoenix nodded. But that damn twelve just had to keep asking me different irrelevant questions, he seems so serious with the work you gave him! Phoenix was so displeased as he thought of what transpired few hours ago. When twelve had seen him walk out from the back fence towards the gate, Twelve kept bombarding him with series of questions and he was only allowed to leaveter on after saying that he came for an official duty to drop something important in the house by Alexander. Alexander smirked a bit and Phoenix gazed at him meaningfully and what do you n on doing now that knight have Amelia?? Alexanders eyes narrowed slightly leave that to me! Eastern Shore Ah look what we have here knight smiled in jubilee as he walked to the center of the room where the girl was tied to a chair. Beckoning to Grey, knight showed a displeased face for a while as he waited for grey toe over which he did. Remove those tight ropes around her wrist and the blindfold! Knight said as his gaze was on the face of the woman who he was so fond of. Grey twitched his brows for a while before nodding as he didnt want any more problems with Knight to avoid the unseen from happening. Grey walked towards Amelia that was tied up in a chair and remove her blindfold and the first thing that knight received was a very tight re from her. Knight chuckled seeing those tight re and narrowed eyes and he muttered just as I remembered! He shook his head, he was really amused. Grey youve done well with that said, Knight walk towards Amelia and Grey took a step back to give Knight some space. Knight lowered himself close to Amelia and smirked at her as his eyes trailed down to her corbone and he return his gaze to her eyes and shed her a wide smile which she snorted when seeing that. Her eyes shed with unknown emotions as she bite the lower part of her lips. Too angry to say a word! Long time no see sweetheart! Have you been missing me huh?? Knight asked with a shallow smile and held her chin and she turn her head to remove his hands from her chin. You filthy thing! Amelia spat out in a very hoarse tone as she felt disgusted with his touch, she stared hard at knight with so much hate. Knight chuckled again as he stood up and turn to leave but he suddenly turn back and gripped her chin very hard that Amelia felt a sharp pain on her chin. Dont taste my patience this woman! You dont act all stubbornly with me, I, Knight Cyrus does not condole such! Knight barked at Amelia whose expression was pained. Sweat filled her forehead in fright as her mouth was squeezed by Knights hand as he was currently gripping her chin and it was really painful to her. Knight looked at the woman and sighed before letting go off her and he caressed her hair and Amelia felt like puking. He sure do have a weird mood swing! Come on baby I love you knight said as he tried to force himself on her, trying to kiss her but she turn her face away in anger. Knight choked her with his hand and ced her head in ce and kissed her lips viciously and even bite on her lips. Amelia felt suffocated as she was helpless against this man who was currently taking advantage of her. Alexander caused this! But she was the one at fault too, she had brought this upon herself! Amelia let the tear roll down her face as she regretted a lot of things she had done before. If she could turn back the hand of the time, she would make amends. Knight let go off her and stood up not so fierce now huh?? Seems like you are also one of them who fall for my charms! Knight smiled profoundly. Amelia didnt utter a word and just stared hard at him with lots of emotions brewing in the depth of her eyes. Grey had this unexinable expression on as he stood close by but there was this expression on his face and it was that of anger. He was feeling vexed for some reasons only known to him. Knight frowned a bit when a realization dawned on him, his mind was racing to different directions. Grey did you get any calls from the husband?? Alexander havent called yet?? The Alex, knight knew would have already called and threatened the shits out of him by now or was he so busy to be even unaware of what happened?? It would be much more better if it was thest one, as other gangs would want to make him a toy and remove the title to his name. It was a big p and taboo when amon gang member single-handedly kidnap the wife of a don! It was unheard of and it would mean the don was a weakling that his wife was kidnapped right under his nose and by so doing, he would be stripped the title of Don. Just then, a call came in and it was the devil.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Alexander. Fucker! Wheres she?? Alexander asked with no expression on his face! Knight smirked what do you think?? That you have a death wish Alexander answered and knight snorted if I were you Ill start begging so I can probably spare the life of your wife! Alexander snarled coldly well I want to use this medium to thank you for taking that burden away from me! I really appreciate that, so you can as well start making babies with her and build a baby days care! I lost interest in her! Alexander said coldly and Knight smirked. Trying to say that to divert my mind!?? keep trying! Soon you will be sent some parts of her flesh so you can feed on it too !Knight retorted and Alexander ended the call without too much stress. Knight felt something was amiss with what Alexander had said, did he truly lost interest in Amelia?? But thinking back to how Alexander always like to protect Amelia, knight despaired those thoughts with a snort. Lets go knight! The men would soon be reaching the southern shore soon, we have to head over to the east and go chop off some heads what do you think Grey??knight showed a crazed smile as he looked over at Grey who nodded with a cold smile. Knight didnt linger as he walked towards the door while saying and you will be bringing my little pumpkin as well.. Greyhounds expression darkened as he swept his gaze over to Amelia and Amelias eyes dimmed at him and he threw his gaze away. What a weird way ofmunicating! Grey nevertheless did as told! Just stay put bitch! Grey cursed at Amelia who red hard at him with the intention of smashing his head into pieces. Alexander closed the door of his ck Maybach and drove off in full speed. About seven cars also followed along and they all headed for eastern shore Till Kingdom Come Shit! The captain of the ship heading to the southern shore eximed when seeing the uing ships surrounding their ship. All the red Kings from elite training center where members were trained, they all were immediately rmed. Just as their master had warned them about, Alexander might attack them in sea but there had shrugged it off a bit but they were nevertheless prepared. Everybody take cover! Protect yourselves and get ready to be shot at! The man who seems to be like the leader shouted at the other men who immediately scurried into different corners of the ship.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. There were little or no ces to hide as they all decided to fire at the ships of the alphas that wereing. The ships of the red Kings were just two while those of the alphas were about four in numbers. Alexander sure do have men to spare. He was really mean! Soon the sounds of gunshots filled the air as bullets flew from the ships to another. The alphas came in four small cruise ships. At the top of the cruise ships of the alpha was a snipers who was prepared for the worst as he targeted from the very top of the cruise ship. A lot of men from the alpha gang were shot at and some died while the men From the red Kings were also decreasing in numbers. Damn these assholes! George muttered as he hid behind the boxes in the ship and he brought out his gun abit and shot at the two members of the red kings who were on the other boat. Yes! George came out of his hiding ce to head to the next box that was loaded, he directly shot at the neck of the sailor in the ship of the red kings. But just as he was about to reach the next box, he was shot in the arm from the other side. He groaned and fell close to the box as his face turn red but he managed to hid close to the boxes. Two alphas shot fiercely as they ran to go meet the George who was already bleeding profusely and they dragged him to the cruise to get treated. We are loosing men! a man shouted as his eyes constricted. The whole ce was bloody as the ships belonging to the red kings and The Alphas were all in one particr area of the water, none were moving as they shot at each other in a cruel manner. Gnashing and groaning sounds were heard along with that of the gunshots. Dont worry about me! You go over and get all the snipers and those in control of the bombs and do the needful, we need to get this done and over with, that has always been our style! George urged the men as he let the man treat his bleeding arm and the men who had helped him, nodded and they all left. After getting the wound bandaged, George stood up and carried his gun again. Dont you need to rest for a while?? The man asked and George shot him a deadly look as if saying are you blind to see the situation?? The man swallowed and didnt say anything more and George walked out of the ce. The men who were at different spot in the cruise ships held and repositioned their sniper guns. A man who was wearing a big eyess and a earphone was working with a knife and small wires as he kept tempering with some bombs and setting it. George walked into the small department in the cruise where the man was setting the small bombs and the man looked at him and nodded meaningfully. The red kings men were having a hard time as they kept decreasing in numbers but the alphas were not left behind as a lot of their men were shot and some even fell into the salty water. Soon, the snipers began their work as they shot at the leaders of the red kings and some members that looked more agile and bodied. Some alphas were behind the railings and windows of the cruise. Some were outside and some were up at the top. The red kings felt suppressed and hopeless. They had a bad premonition about the oue of this fight. Lets retreat! Start the ships!! The men shouted but they were all distressed to see their sailor half alive while the others were dead and lying in their own pool of blood. Somebody do something about this damned situation and get this thing moving already! A man shouted amongst the few men who were there as the others were trying to hold on with the alphas. I have a little experience about this shit! Another man said and they immediately pushed him forward. Dont go mess with it! Arghh what a waste! We lost again after tones of training! I wonder what they are made of! The menined but it didnt take long before one of them were shot at and it went directly into the mans brain, his skull fell out of his head. The impact of the bullet had burst open his skull, leaving a very disgusting scene. Sighting the man who had shot at them, another red kings member shot at the man from alpha and it hit him on his chest and he groan, falling to the ground and the red king member pass his fingers through his hair and walked out to go see how the situation was, not that he had hopes of them winning. Seeing that the red Kings ships were about to move, George frowned and looked at the eye ss man who immediately got the message and went ahead with it. George first came out and shouted at the sailor in their ships Retreat! The sailors in different ships didnt waste time or try to question him and they immediately paddled on the wheel. The red kings were shooting at the also retreating ships of the alphas. The men sighed as they felt relieved, Atleast they were not killed, they can juste back after. They suddenly be cowards and retreat! A man snarled at the departing ships of the alphas. Amongst the four ships that belongs to the alpha, Three had reached far while thest one was still very close to that of the red kings. That was the ship George was and the snipers including few men as a lot have died. The red kings men shot but not too fierce like before and when they had thought trouble had left them. A small sound echoed abit. It was faint so nobody heard it and just then, lots of same small object that were abit round but had sharp edges flew towards their ships. Their eyes constricted as they all gasped and stood rooted to where they stood and as if a light went off in their heads. They shouted! Bombs!!! The men didnt think twice, maybe it was due to the fact that they were in a hurry to save themselves and evacuate the ship They didnt know when they had by themselves fallen into the marine water that was full of so much salt. Cry of agony resounded and George came out and threw saliva into the sea and muttered till kingdome! Bloody The men continue to cry in pain as they tried to swim out of the water, but going back to their ships was not an option. The bombs that were thrown into their ships were not time bombs so it took only few seconds before it exploded. Meanwhile, the ships of the alphas has sailed far from the ce the fight took ce. The red Kings perished in the sea that was salty as some drown while some died as a result from the salt water they consumed in the process. Some who didnt want to die such death, waited in the ship as they all wait for death to take them. They couldnt defuse the bombs as they werent timed. As soon as the bombsnded in a hard surface, it immediately explode. The ship was wrecked and hopeless as it was burnt along with some men who refused to jump into the water. Meanwhile, not long after Alexander drove off to the eastern shore area, At that same time, Knight and his men got down from their ships at the eastern shore, they walked away from the shore side. The shore was filled with tens of Cans for transporting bulky goods, And they were alot of ships of different sizes. It was a bit lonely as the ce was devoid of people. People hardlye to the shore. The eastern shore was not the very busy ce as the area look dry but transportation takes ce there but for some reasons or the other, there werent many people as they were just few persons passing by. Knight could guess what this was all about and he snorted when he saw the restriction signs and just then his eyes shrieked. Before a cold smile rece his face as he hurried his men and they all boarded theirs cars. Preparing to make some heads roll. Knight along with Grey was in the same car, not excluding Amelia who had a fierce look on.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. The other four cars were vans that could contain about twenty five men if they decided to manage the space. The cars moved in full speed as Knight had already seen those restrictions signs which only meant they had walked into a trap set by Alex. It seems Alexander wanted everything to end in the shore but he wouldnt buy that as that area seems like Alexanders territory so he had to quickly leave this shore. But that could be considered a bitte as cars drove from the opposite direction towards theirs. Knight frown as he turn back to look at the shore not too far off, they had only managed to leave there by few meters and now the bloodsucking devils came so soon. Knight set his gun on his thigh as Grey slowed down the car. Alexander was at the other car behind the first one and he could tell that his mortal enemy was there. He signaled at Phoenix who immediately understood. All eight cars from the Alphas parked in a straight line forming a boundary. Alexanders car was at the middle as the other cars parked close to his. They sat there for a While, monitoring the movement of the other side. Knight gritted his teeth and whispered to Grey Keep an eye on her! Nothing must go wrong as he opened the door of his car and stepped out of his car. The other members of red kings gang came out from their Vans as they positioned their guns, eyes cold as they looked ready to shoot at any time. Alexander also came out of his car, standing close to the door was Phoenix who had a bored expression. This wasnt interesting at all for him! He just wanted to get this done and over with as he felt that the red kings werent worthy of his attention. Alexander walked forward and lean on the bo of his car with a rxed face. Knight snorted seeing that face Long time Ron! Alexander used his thumb to clean an invincible dust from his forefinger as he saidzily You made quiet a dangerous mistakeing back to Europe Cyrus! Knights eyes flickered with hatred I must say, you sure do have a very foul mouth! Grey was in the car with Amelia who was bounded with a very tight chain around her. Greyhounds eyesnded on The rxed Alexander who felt as if he was on top of the world and that really irked him a lot. A fool sure do remain a fool! Alexandermented and turn back to walk into his car and Knight was so provoked as he raised his gun. Other members from the alpha gang raised theirs, targeting the opposite sides. Same as the red kings who also aimed at the alphas. Phoenix raised a chin in disapproval seeing how brazen knight has suddenly be. You must have forgotten something so soon! Knightughed crazily as he walked back to his car and on getting to the drivers side, he said Your darling wife is with me! With that said, Gunshots rained over the ce as both sides tried to take cover and also harm the opponent. Alexander took out his long AK 47 and aimed it directly on the car Knight had went into. Phoenix was hiding close to the car as he fired from time to time. Knight cursed when the man close to him was shot died Damn Ron! He took out his gun and killed some members of the alphas. The whole atmosphere was bloody as lots of dead bodies dropped, it looked so bloody and the ce wasnt healthy anymore. The few people who hade to the area screamed when such an incident faced them. Some took their phones and dialed the number of the Policemen. Im calling from Saint Road by eastern shore, there seems to be a very fierce fight between two set of people!An old woman who was hiding close to a stall, called the police. She was waiting for a response and that she finally got Maam well urge you to take cover if you are present there or rather go somewhere far from there, well do something about it! With that said, the call got disconnected and the olddy showed a frown but nevertheless left in a hurry. The police man dropped the tel on the table and took a bite from His hamburger in pleasure and just then their superior came in. Turn off allndlines for the whole day! Yes sir! The police men and women present immediately did so. Who doesnt know about the gangs in Europe?? And their constant fight?? The government cant even stop or control it so it was normal as long as they dont destroy the earth. So it was better not to get involved. Conspiracy As the fight get intense, some of the red kings and alphas became physical as they fought. Seeing that the whole ce has be so bloody and disgusting with the sight of blood and corpses everywhere. Alexander ran back to his car and took out his dagger and kept it in his boots and a pistol in the back of his shirt and he took two Long guns and wore it around his shoulders and he came to the front and shot a lot of members. Knight was looking distressed as he saw that his men where decreasing in numbers, his eyes constricted as he turn to look at the woman close to him outside the car. Grey was bending close to them as he watched vigntly. Knight gripped the chin of Amelia tightly you better be good! Grey had a very deep frown on his face seeing the situation. The whole ce had suddenly be dusty and tattered. The cars werent spared either as the cars almost look unnoticeable with holes on them. Twenty pulled the trigger and it directly went to the throat of a red king member and his lungs came out as the mans expression was pained. The man fell to his kneels and died with both eyes opened wide. Your mask Alex! Phoenix warned as he kept shooting at the red kings in a very rough manner. Alexander didnt pay any heed as he loaded his gun with very cold eyes. Knight smirked coldly, seeing that they were at a disadvantage and doesnt seem as if they would ever win. Knight hissed and tapped hard on Greys shoulder cover me! Were out of here! Grey nodded and took hisrge gun and started to shoot at the alphas as he ran along. Knight grabbed the hands of the petite girl who was looking so weak which was unlike the Amelia who was always active. This time, she looked a bit sluggish. Knight ran along with Amelia and Grey, and the only thought going on in his mind was to quickly run off and Board a ship and quickly preserve his life. Knight ran along as he pulled Amelia by the arm. She had a difficult time as her heart swell due to the running. Grey was behind them as he was holding a gun while running off towards the shore so they could board their ship. Alexander sighted them when they had ran off and he looked at Phoenix who nod back at him meaningfully. They came out of the car side and found a way to escape the ce as they took off after the men who were escaping. At this point, the only red Kings members remaining were about two as they had surrendered but the alphas werent that merciful. Twenty immediately shoot them in the head and they both copsed on the ground along with their brothers who had died. The bodies filled the whole ce. The alphas felt pained seeing their brothers who was unfortunate as they allid on the ground in the pool of their own blood. Shit!! A Guy groaned as he marched towards the corpses of the red kings and shot them again in anger. A guy from the alpha gang came to him and hug him, he patted his shoulder and led him out of there. Their faces were covered in sweats and dirt. Wheres that fucker! Twenty called out and earth who was a member of the red kings gang stood up from the car side. His hand was shot earlier by other members of the red kings.Content ? N?velDrama.Org. He came along with the alphas to fight against the red kings as his true identity was the Alpha. He was a spy sent by alexander to the gang so when he had gone to kidnap Amelia that night, he was caught on purpose as his mission was already over at the Den of the red kings. He was to infiltrate the gang as he was the insider who fed Phoenix with the gangs information and operation. His real name in the alpha gang was Cain and his undercover name for missions is Earth. Cain.. Twenty walk towards him and patted his shoulder well done bro, go get your injury treated! It looks like meat Cain Scoffed loudly and made to walk out when the ambnce came in. Lets go trash the corpses of these motherfuckers! Twenty yelled and the other members immediately marched forward to wipe out the dead bodies. Meanwhile at the shore. Knight was running when he felt something was wrong. He slowed down his steps as he stood for a while. He sighed slowly before turning back to look at Grey who had suddenly stopped walking with him. His eyes darkened as his demeanor changed seeing Grey pointing a gun at his head. The emotions in Greyhounds eyes were so foreign to knight. Even if he knew thews that states that mafias cant be trusted, he never expected a betrayal from Grey who was always at his beck and call. Grey Hound! Knight gritted his name out in fury as he tighten his grip on Amelias arm. Grey looked at him with so much hatred and anger. his Fingers went to the trigger and was ready to pull it off soon. You cant be so foolish right now Grey! This wont end well! Knight said with a little frown. He slowly brought up his gun and aimed it at Grey as well but Grey looked undisturbed as he gazed at knight coldly. You dont think you can be right all the time do you?? Some people meet their doom early while some take a while, I guess this is yours! So just take it! Grey said as he remembered the maid that was killed few hours ago by this bastard. Knight felt funny as he spat on the ground, his eyes brewing with unmask haughtiness mixed with ayer of mockery. Youre just a boy! Im not a novice! Knight smirked and just in that moment, Alexander and Phoenix came in. Alexander and Phoenix stood side by side with Greyhound and the three of them aimed their gun at Knight. Those six pairs of eyes owned by the three men who stood in a well uniformed manner was so cold and deadly. They were in all cks with different weapons on them. Each of them containing bitterness for just one man who was a thorn to their flesh. Seeing the union between Grey and the two men, Knight felt even more amused as something clicked. Wow what a conspiracy We Will Die Together Alexander smirked coldly Surpised?? Phoenixs eyes were narrowed as he stared deep at Knight whom he had always despised. Knight noddedzily as he rough handled Amelia who was quiet all through. Yes really surprised, you must have put in enough efforts into making this a very huge surprise, I feel honored! Knights cold eyes met with that of Phoenix and they sent thunders at each other with those freezing gazes. You were just too stupid to notice a w since you are blinded by your taste and hunger for power! Alexander smirked as he held the pistol in his hand tightly. He slowly drew out another pistol, making it two, his muscr arms were so well defined as he looked like a Demi god, a god of war as he held those two pistols with stretched arms. His eyes prating Knight. Knight scoffed I will understand the hatred Alexander had for me since I was always a foe and a rival for him, and you Phoenix his eyes swept over Liam who had the urge to just go and slit his throat. Tsk tsk I know you must be holding onto the incident of five years ago when I sliced your girlfriend and packaged her arms in a food sk for you to have as lunch but you were so ungrateful to even thank me for the free lunch! Can we kill him already?? Phoenix said with so much hatred, his eyes seems more colder as the minutes passed by. Those were the memories he never wanted to rey in his mind. He had loved his girlfriend so much but this fool was too obsessed with dealing with the Alphas so he didnt spare his girlfriend. He had always med himself for her death as he never revealed his identity as a mafia to his girlfriend and she died because of his enemy. He felt he caused her to her untimely death. Sweat filled Phoenixs forehead as he was suffocating with that saddening feeling. And Grey. what should I say happened with you?? knight asked as he swept his gaze on him. Just cut the crap and ept defeat! Alexander yelled in anger as he was ready to shoot but couldnt because of a promise he had made. Defeat?? Haha knightughed in a very crazy manner as he looked as if he was a mad man. He looked more insane as he threw his head back whileughing disgustingly defeat you say?? I can never be defeated! Not now! Not ever! Knight said with red eyes. If I had known, I would have slit your throat the moment I found out that you were nothing but a spy Grey! Knight said Fuckers go die! Knight cursed as he ced his gun in the head of Amelia and his eyes turn cold. You could have Atleast tell her to be more realistic Alexander Knight gritted out as he felt cheated, sweat slowly soaking the back of his shirt, he didnt want to look afraid as he ced his finger firmly on the trigger. Alexander scoffed Only got to find out now?? Fool Dont you dare call me a fool!!! Knight yelled as he shot at the air with his veins popping up in his throat. Youre a kid Knight! I wondered how you turned from a innocentd to a very ferocious fool who wants nothing but power and fame! Phoenix said as he remained his gaze on Knight. Shut up you know nothing about me! Knight yelled again as he ced his hand on Amelias throat to choke her. You guys sessfully fooled me! This is not Amelia but looks exactly like her!! What did you do?? Huh?? Who is this bitch Im holding???!!! Knight yelled for the umpteenth time as he felt his head vibrate. Alexander let out a cold snort , his face reced with a snarl You could guess ______ Meanwhile at the mansion, Amelia felt more unease as she kept changing positions and pacing around the room. She didnt want to obstruct anything as she only held her phone waiting for that phone call. That very phone call that could make her racing heart calm down. She bite on her lips after a while, she checked her phone for any emails or missed calls even if she had ced a ringtone to notify her when she gets a message or call and the fact that the phone was with her. Good lord Amelia muttered as she felt her chest tighten. She sat on the couch in the living room, the maids were not seen around the ce as they could study the atmosphere. Theyve experienced such even if they came after a while. Amelia stood up from the couch again when she held her phone vibrate, she could have just seen the message while sitting but due to the anxiety, she didnt know when she stood up to check the message. She held the phone and turn it on to see if it was a message from Alexander and to her dismay, it was a message from istagram. Hibaby401 and sairamaeGepoy just followed you on instagram, tap to send hi. Amelia rolled her eyes as she threw her phone on the couch in annoyance. This was too disgusting as she slumped on the chair with a groan. She opened her eyes and looked up at the ceiling. Maybe it was because of the fear or anxiety or maybe the believe she was slowly developing God Ive heard a lot about you, dont know if you are real or can solve problems as a lot of people im But I think I have to turn to you now.. Amelia closed her eyes as her emotions were deeply touched making her look pitiful Please help to preserve my heart from dangerOwned by N?velDrama.Org. If Alexander was there and heard her refer him as her heart, he would have celebrated for twelve years without failing. ______ At the shore, Knight looked even more angry as he choked mahogany even more You witch! Mahogany cant believe you betrayed me as well! You devil-let me go! You fool! You-you betrayed me first! Mahogany was having a hard time breathing. You have always loved me mahogany and will forever love me. therefore, today we will die together! Fear Of Death Mahoganys face was covered in sweat, Phoenix had done this to her. Alexander had instructed Phoenix run a stic surgery on her to enable her look more like Amelia so that Knight would hurt Her instead of Amelia. This was a risk for her but she had to do it as her mother who Knight always referred to as Granny was held captive by Alexander and she had seen her mother herself when she was tied to an iron chair in a torture room. Alexander smirked coldly as he locked gazes on the two fools who were once in a conspiracy against him. So how does it feel to have your own puppet be my puppet?? Alexander snarled at knight whose expression was unreadable. Not bad! Knight smirked I will be back for your head Alexander! Knight groaned as he saw his shiping from far off. Only his sailor was in there. I will kill this puppet of yours if youe even a meter close! Knight threatened as he took slow steps backward and Grey frowned and looked at Alexander who was staring intently at Knight Cyrus. Phoenix locked gazes with mahogany. Mahogany was literally crying already and Alexander felt disgusted for a while because he suddenly didnt like this idea of this shitty woman having his wifes face. And the way mahogany cries was too horrible to look at as her mouth widened and Alex had the urge to go tear off those face but he knew better. Remember your promise Liam! You said I wouldnt be killed! You promised to make me hold my mother again! Mahogany cried as she felt like dying at the moment. Shut the fuck up! Youre just a nuisance who wants to be a leech! Knight cursed at Mahogany as he took three steps back and Alexanders eyes constricted. One thing you should know mahogany. Do not trust the words of a mafia he said coldly and Phoenix narrowed his eyes at Mahogany and muttered. Code Mahoganys eyes constricted as she remembered what Phoenix had told her back in the surgery room. Code means Hit the groin okay?? Just keep that in mind! Phoenix had said her. Those were one of the things Alexander had taught Amelia in case she came into this type of situation but he didnt want that as he had a change of n at thest minute. Instead of involving his wife, he could make use of the puppet Knight sent to him, He can just make her a replica of his wife and keep Amelia safe and deceived the enemy and have him capture the wrong one which is mahogany. He had secretly contacted Cain also known as earth to tell Grey about the change of n. Grey was smart enough to n that attack. That night, he purposely broke the back light and remove the securities there. He didnt want Grey to get too involved as he seems monitored by Knight. So earth was to do the dirtyundry and get captured on purpose along with the other members of the red kings gang because his duties there was over. The twost figure that entered the mansion through he back fence was Phoenix and Mahogany who had already done the surgery. When Amelia fought with scraper, and twelve hade to carry him out of the masters bedroom, Alexander had sent Amelia a message to immediately head to his study and stay there. Ameliaplied without asking why and not long, Mahogany had entered the room and just in time for a red king member named Baron toe in and take her away. Twelve had almost disrupted the n abit but it still went well. After seeing that everything has been done, Phoenix came out of the house and was immediately questioned by twelve who seems too immersed with the security work. Mahoganys eyes shed when Knight was a bit distracted as he was moving back with the pistol on her neck. Mahogany grabbed the opportunity and immediately used her elbow to hit his rib and As fast as lightening, She bent and hit him on his groin. Knights mind was in a disarray as he couldntprehend all that was happening as it happened so fast. His eyes rolled to the back of his head as his eyes were threatening to fall out of its sockets. The pain was too much as he held onto that area in pain. Grey didnt waste anything time as he ran towards them and gave a flying kick to knight, striking his jaw and knights lips burst open as blood gush out like a small dam. The gun fell off his hands and Grey took it and dragged mahogany by the Hand and walked away. Knight struggled to get back on his feet but his body wobble as his head was fuzzy and he was a bit dizzy due to the impact of the kick. He spat out blood from his mouth and turn to look at his nemesis and his nemesis, Alexander, stared back at him. His two hands that he was using to hold the pistols stretched out as he immediately pulled the triggers. The two bullets from the two pistols in his hand, dived into knights shoulders and he threw his head back in pain. Phoenix shot his both legs and Just then, Grey who had keep Mahogany at the side, came back and the three men kept raining bullets on Knight.Owned by N?velDrama.Org. He looked disheveled as his chest was bleeding profusely as his clothes were all torn. His eyes were half opened as his head felt like exploding, all his body seems to be lit as a feeling of adrenaline passed through his core. His hair was silky and glued to each other, his face covered in his blood. Was this death?? He slowly let go of himself as his two knees touched the ground in a slow motion. His eyes bloodshot as he couldnt utter a single word correctly. He only knew that he wished to turn back the hand of the time and made corrections. He knew he wanted to apologize and beg for his life but the pain was too much. The fear of death was really painful and suffocating. They didnt shoot him in his vital spot as they wanted him to experience having his skin being pierced by every bullet, his skin tearing before his eyes. Alexander aimed at his head seeing that he was about to die. Until we meet again in hell! Alexander muttered and shot at his head. The impact of the bullet bore a hole on his head and blood immediately gush out like a bore hole. With eyes opened, Knight immediately fell down t with his face to the ground as he had already taken hisst breath.
