Chapter 46: The contract
Alex Pov.
I smiled mischievously as I left the mansion. It seems I need to come back some other time as no one was in the house except Mrs Hudson.
Yeah, she’s the only naive angel that welcomes me despite the sweet friendship I share with her son. Maybe it’s because we are family and she can’t help but still accept me.
Being back feels so fucking good and there’s this feeling of euphoria that my plans is going to run smoothly.
Damn! Fanuel’s wife is so fucking cute and sexy!
Where the hell did he see that one? I was thinking Mirabel was everything but I was wrong.
I chewed on my gum slowly and softly before glancing at my wrist watch.
“Take me to the white house.”
I told my driver who nodded and swerved direction immediately.
I need to see Mirabel, I need a lot of information from her even though I’ve already heard and researched some of it.
Hudson’s Chemical technologies was at the brink of collapsing and all of a sudden he’s getting married.
Isn’t he supposed to be running a helter skelter trying to save his dear company? His dad is still in a coma and he’s celebrating.
Wait!
I also heard he had a contract with the president and the world bank is ready to give him a loan, so why the marriage charade?
The Fanuel I know behaves like a gay even though he’s like a honey with a swarm of bees clinging to him, girls never stop drooling. He doesn’t give a fuck about girls!
Ah! He must really like this one and that’s what tickles my fancy.
I’m going to take her from him and marry her to spite him.
Now that I’m back, I’m going to make sure that his company crumbles to dust. He must pay for what he did to me even though he keeps acting ignorant about it, his life is going to be a living hell for him!
If he’s smart, I’m going to be smarter!
If he’s good, I’m going to be clever.
If he’s bad, I’m going to be dangerous!
I’m definitely going to burn him like an iron on a hot furnace, he will definitely feel the pain but he won’t burn his skin, his pain will flow so bright that he will crumble.
“We are here boss.” My driver said and I jumped down from the car.
Nothing has changed here, still the same white french designs with white royal robes displayed at every corner of the house.
Lines of flags flapping proudly and a sight of water fall to compliment its magnificent aura and beauty.
I jogged inside and went straight to the elevator, the guards bowed and I nodded.
I’ve been here countlessly so there’s no need for all the formal greetings and protocols.
The ding sound of the elevator chimed and the door slid open with a man eagerly waiting to enter inside. I stared at him when I stepped out but he stylishly bent his head low as he punched the ground floor key for the door to slide.
I stood there trying to picture his features as he looked awfully familiar! What would a familiar person be doing in Mirabel’s villa?
I shook the thoughts off and walked down the glassy passage that leads to her room.
The large exquisite room was empty and quiet but I could hear noises coming from the….
She’s bathing.
I sat and waited for the next twenty minutes when she came out with her pink bathrobe and her maids followed suit. She gasped on seeing me and gestured her maid out.
“Have some fucking respect Alex and get out!”
“Really, but we are the only ones here…why did you send your maids out?”
“Why did you come here unannounced?”
“What? So do I need to tell you anything before I visit my girlfriend?”
“Can you just stop all these, I’m not your girlfriend!” She seethed and I gave her that my smirk.
“Stop being delusional Mirabel, you can’t have what is not yours?”
I told her and she sneered.
She knew I was talking about Fanuel and I knew that she still wanted Fanuel back. I know about her plans to destroy the wedding and her sweet quarrel with Fanuel’s wife.
“Why are you here Alex?” She sighs dejectedly and I stood up and walked to her.
She was still beautiful no doubt but she was really dumb and naive.
I cupped her chin and caressed her lips but she pushed me off.
“Don’t even think of that Alex, shut that out of your mind.”
“What should I shut?”
“You know and why the heck did you come back to New Jersey, I thought you started a new life already in Chicago?”
“Of course I started a new life and I’m back to display that life. What? You expected me to stay like a dumb child in the rehab huh? When I had important missions to accomplish, I was lying low and I had to let the sleeping dogs lie for the meantime.”
“What are you up to this time around Alex?”
“Why not guess?”
” You’re always up to no good, just get the hell out let me dress up.” She said dismissively and I held her milky hands.
“What if I’m up to something that might benefit you?” I cocked my head tons side and smirked.
“What?”
“It would really benefit you and you could get your Fanuel back?” Her face lit up in surprise and anticipation and she came closer to me as if what I’m hiding is written on my body.
“Really?”
“Yeah, I’ve got plans.”
Plans that could make me ride on a roller coaster and make Fanuel a broken trash. Yeah! She can go have him, I’ve got a new catch after all.
“Then spit it up and stop killing me in suspense, I’ve got my plans too and an insider that helps me with every information. I just don’t trust you Alex, your presence might crush things for me.”
“Mirabel, have you ever seen two heads fail when they decide to co-operate and work together? I won’t go to the rehab for three years and come back with a dumb plan, I’ve got this.
I know you want Fanuel so bad and I want….”
“You want what?”
“I want his wife?”
“Are you for real, you came all the way from Chicago to take his wife? Do you even know that girl? What’s so special about a common maid whose father was a thief and agreed to sign a contract to save the company from crumbling!!” Mirabel yelled, obviously irritated that I was talking about her.
It seems she really dislikes her, that wasn’t my motive though.
I want to take his wife, crumble that company and take the most precious thing away from him.
“Contract?”
“Yeah, the company was already marching into destruction and failure until he got married before he could save it.”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
I said it!
Fanuel can’t just wake up and declare marriage, so stupid of me to think that he actually likes the girl when he’s doing all of this for his personal gain.
Shit!!!
I still want the girl though.
“How do you know all of this?”
“I told ya, I got an insider who feeds me with juicy contents.”
“Who’s this person?”
“I can’t tell you Fanuel, that wasn’t the deal. I’m to protect their identity!”
“Fine, I don’t care as long they don’t fret in the process”
“They won’t.”
“There’s something really interesting
about this?”
“What?”
“The contract”
“Huh?”
“It’s a huge tool to our plan, the public doesn’t know all of this and that though it was an actual marriage, once the press and the stakeholders of their company come to realize this they could sue him for infringement of personality and withdraw all contracts assigned to him.”
“Then I can take up from there and become his wife to him” She says dramatically and scoff.
Savior.
By then I would kill you and trash you out, cause you’re going to be a stumbling block to my plans.
