Come now, Alex, show us your gift. Harvey beckoned to Alex, who stood in the middle of the Stone family living room, clutching the watch that Laura gave him tightly. This was meant to be his gift for Harvey's birthday, but Craig had just given him the same watch as a present. Sandra snapped her fingers. Hurry up. Don't keep my father waiting. Let's see what you got for him. Alex started to take a step backward. No, really. I'll just leave my gift with the others. Why don't you see what Alex got you? Instead, as he hesitated, Shane suddenly ran up to Alex, stealing the box out of his hands. Stop being so ridiculous and hand over the present. Alex tried to grab the watch back, but Shane dodged out of the way. Shane, give me that back. Or else? Or what? What are you going to do to me? Shane snickered. Let's see what you got for my grandfather. He opened the box. The e

Alex's eyes went wide as Charlotte delivered her ultimatum. He was sitting across from Charlotte in his car, while she stared at him with a suspicious glare in her eyes. I'm going to give you one more chance, Alex, otherwise I'm walking out of this car, and I might not come back. I told you, Charlotte, I'm Alex Callahan. That's it. Just the poor husband of your friend, Anna. Nothing more. Charlotte fumed. You're lying again. God. How am I supposed to believe a word you say if you won't even be honest with me about who you are? She huffed slightly. You escaped from Ron and his men today. How did you manage that? When I heard you talking the night you kidnapped me, you were treating him like he was your servant. How do you two know each other? Alex grew irritated as well. And w

Buying a car, making a worker go inactive. Don't pay for that SafeTech order. I want to force the guy who's running that company to become a delivery boy again. Craig smirked wickedly and waited patiently for Javier's response, staring at him intently. The two sat across from one another in Javier's office. Javier arched his brow. You want me to jeopardize our business reputation just for your petty revenge? Craig folded his arms. I promise there'll be plenty of benefits for you in it. If you agree, we'll make sure it's worth your while. Plus, if SafeTech goes down, you could make an offer for the company for pennies on the dollar. Javier smiled mischievously. I like the sound of that. Very well. We'll see that we do. Craig smirked. Excellent. The next day at Sa

This is your last chance. Alex pressed the gun hard into Hans's forehead. Tell me what you know about Derek Klein and what your deal with him is, or else? Hans trembled as he looked around his warehouse. His 15 mercenaries were now lying unconscious on the floor. One of them was dead. Faced down in a pool of his own blood. Finally. He relented. Okay, fine. Yes. Derek came to meet with me. Alex smirked. Go on. He came here to try to sell his company, but he didn't tell me that you have a stake in it. Otherwise, I never would have done business with him. I would never double-cross the Tiger. Hans looked up at Alex, pleading. Alex kept the gun pointed at Hans's head. So what was the plan? Well, I couldn't buy the company from Derek, but I found someone who could. Aid passed around Hans. Ah, so you are going to sell to a third party. Hans nodded. We were supposed to meet with him tomorrow. Alex thought carefully for a moment. If the meeting gets cancelled, Derek might suspect t
