Dominic and Selena stared at the man before them because he was acting very seriously. It was as if he knew the reason he was here already and there was nothing that anybody could say that would deter him from doing what he should at least at the moment. There was a reason he was staring at Magnus.The person had the same tone of words and it was almost as if he was talking to his twin. "This is where Marcel comes in. Come inside," he invited Magnus before staring at the message again. He would rebuke him inside the room at least that was better than openly where everyone could see and know what was happening. Magnus stared at him in half surprise while he also glared at him wondering why he was acting like a spineless coward. "Do you think that I'm joking?" Dominic asked. There was a reason that Magnus was reticent. Who knew what Dominic had in store for him because of the way he was constituting a nuisance? Dominic walked in first leaving the door open for him to decide if he wan
Marcel felt challenged by the words as he walked out of the house and there was no problem whatsoever. All that would have happened was already sorted out and he was only waiting till he got a better job before he was able to come back.Truth be told, there was a reason that this wasn't working out. He didn't want to work for anyone because he hated being bossed around, so instead of him working for anybody at this point, he would rather invest that time and energy in working for someone else. That way he would have rest and would be able to do whatever was expected of him. Selena walked in with a smile on her face and was waiting to see how Dominic was going to act when he finally had the chance and time to inspect what had been going on in the office behind his back. "I saw Marcel leaving hurriedly, I hope that you didn't get into a spat?" She asked and he shook his head with a small smile on his face. "Okay... so are you guys okay?" She asked him and he nodded happily. There was
At the end of the presentation, the investors began to clap Selena and Dominic was busy smiling. He loved the fact that she was ready to give her all yi the presentation and was finally able to convince his clients without any atom of doubt that they needed to invest in their company. It was wonderful seeing something like this after a long period of time. "I think we can proceed to the next thing on the line which is none other than having to make sure that we sign the deeds. That's the issue."She stared at him and was happy at the proud look that adorned his face. If anyone still had any bias toward them it was probably because they just decided to have a problem with her. Her position was solidified in the company.Marcel waited till the investors had finished signing all the papers before lifting her up and spinning her around. "What the hell?!" Dominic's voice boomed throughout the room like thunder. Marcel smirked while Selena smacked his head upside. Why would he love peace
Selena and Dominic stepped into work together the next day with their hands locked together. It was their first official welcome party into the office so a few members of staff gathered at the reception to welcome them. A few balloons were popped and some bottles of champagne too. It was almost a small work party.Dominic didn't expect them to do that for him but he was glad nonetheless. "Thank you everyone for helping with this preparation.""I really appreciate it."They chatted for a few minutes before finally allowing everyone to go back to their various departments. Dominic walks straight to his office. The investors were supposed to be here before twelve p.m. That would have given the cleaners enough time to be able to do all that they should do before their arrival.Selena plopped down on the chair and smiled. Life was good, everything was going according to plan and she couldn't help but be grateful. There was something else that she was trying to do, which was to brush up her
With the myriad of things that were happening in the Alexiou family, Dominic was able to easily navigate through it. Their marriage which had happened was not going to end anytime soon though. He also had other focus because he needed to trash out the few people that threatened to pose as a disturbance to him so at the end of the day, he finally decided that he would get to the bottom of the issue.Fast forward to the next day, he and Selena were on the porch waiting to see what was happening at least in the environment. They didn't have neighbors though so they were busy enjoying the scenery."I was talking to my sister last night and she sounded highly remorseful. I don't know what the problem is though." Selena informed Dominic.He stopped typing on his laptop to stare at her. He would rather she didn't tell him anything about her but didn't just want to make her sad. At this point, there were various things that were going to stop her from telling him about them, which included h
Dominic returned home earlier that night with some tacos in hand and a smile on his face. He was rest assured now that Martins was on his side and had promised to help him out.Selena was also somewhat excited that finally he wasn't going to be frowning as much as he did before. This would be one of the best things that happened to her too. " Hey, you're in high spirits. What should we drink?" She asked playfully.A smile crossed Alex's lips because he was also envisioning the success that would come with this and didn't know what was going to happen already. If he was going to be seeing something differently, then he would need to start acting the part.She stared at him again before drawing him closer, collecting the bag from his hands and walking towards the Kitchen."What are you doing?" He asked her "I want to get some plates." She replied."Let's eat it from the bag like old times sake." He said and they stared at each other before bursting into laughter. She couldn't believe t
Dominic smiled at his friend who was relaxed on the chair and spread his hands across the back of the chair and he stared at him. "May I sit?" He replied and pulled out the chair, plopped on it and made sure that he also relaxed.Sean laughed at the words of his friend."I would have thought that you would try your best to be able to bring something tangible. You could only afford a bottle of wine. That's poor even for you." He replied."I don't know what to bring you, as the wealthy man that you are." Brock replied tiredly. Sean was staring at his friend who was staring at him. "I don't know why you're here. I know it's not because you need anything serious. You're probably here to invite me over for booze. I hope you get past that." He replied heartily while moving his folder away.Brock wasn't really happy by the description because he knew that it was true. "Your perception of me is wrong and I don't know why you always act as though you're any better. Let me know if you don't lik
A cough sounded, disrupting their conversation and they moved back from each other. It was none other than Brock who was staring at them with a lot of questions in his gaze. There was something awkward about the way he was staring at them and Alex stood his ground.If this was his definition of intimidation then he had another thing coming and he didn't even say anything at the moment. Brock's eyes roamed through both of them but after a while, he was finally convinced that it wasn't a friendly conversation they were having."So, I see that you are really engrossed in the conversation isn't that right?" Brock stated. "It's none of your business what I say to my in-law. There's a reason for confidentiality." Alex replied.Brock knew that they were a few minutes away from bickering but he couldn't resist throwing some jabs into the mix. " I didn't think that a day would come when both of you would see eye to eye." He said sarcastically and they stared at him."Brock, get out of the wa
Upon Selena's arrival at home, she was greeted with silence, telling her that Alex had not returned from the club. Well, where could he have gone? She didn't want to call him because it might be interpreted as guilt. She would rather that he returned and they talked things out like adults.On cue, she heard the fondling of keys and quickly went to unlock the door from behind. " Hey, " she whispered when he walked in and he just nodded in reply.There was a certain stiffness around his shoulder that told her that he was still angry at her. The problem now was that she wasn't to be blamed for anything. She couldn't even process the reason he was annoyed. For all she knew, she hadn't done anything wrong but not tell him where she actually was. He had watched the scenes play out."I've been waiting for you." She whispered hoping to elicit a reaction from him. " Why aren't you speaking to me?" She probed him."Why are you pestering my life? What exactly do you want from me, darlin?" He as
