“Thief! Everyone, I’ve finally caught the thief. I caught him red handed!”

The once quiet hallways of Hunter & Sons Technology Ltd. erupted into a frenzy of whispers as all the workers gathered in the lounge, each struggling to see the reason for the screaming.

In the centre of the room, Miss Susan, the assistant secretary, held Alexander Easton, the secretary, by his collar, fuming like a snake in heat.

“I didn’t do anything.” Alex stated boldly. “Let go of me. I’m innocent. I did not steal from you.”

Susan held on tighter, her voice growing louder and louder by the minute.

“If you’re not guilty, explain why I found it in your bag. I suspected you from the very beginning. You’re a thief, Alex. You’re a shameless thief!”

Alex’s heart nearly beat off his chest as more than half of his colleagues whipped out their phones and began to record the humiliating scene.

Before long, the head manger was alerted and he immediately rushed to the lounge. When he arrived at the scene, his eyes widened with horror.

“What the hell is going on here?!”

Silence immediately reigned in the room. The head manager was furious.

“Are you all aware that the CEO is currently hosting a conference meeting with international clients? What’s with all the screaming? Do you realise how hazardous this is to the image of our company?”

Alex opened his mouth to defend himself but it was too late. His blood turned to ice when he noticed the CEO himself approaching with some of his clients tagging behind.

The CEO, Mr. Derek Hunter, was the son of the company’s founder. And he was one hotheaded, arrogant young man.

It was obvious from his thunderous expression that he was furious. He looked ready to kill.

“What is this?” He asked calmly, his voice dripping with cold anger. “Let go of him.” He ordered and Susan released Alex immediately.

Alex rubbed his sore neck.

“Thank you, sir.”

“Oh, shut up. Do not thank me yet. What happened? Why did she hold you hostage?”

Alex cleared his throat, his veins already burning with anger.

“Well, sir, Susana is accusing me of stealing her wallet but I’m innocent. I did not steal anything. I came here to get the file you requested when she held me down.”

Hunter levelled Susan with an icy glare.

“Explain yourself, Miss Susan.”

Her face was red with rage.

“Sir, my wallet went missing about an hour ago. I searched my bag but couldn’t find it. I asked everyone but they still couldn’t find it. Everyone else gave up their bags to be searched except Alex. When we forcefully got his bag from him, I found my wallet inside.”

All his co-workers stared at Alex accusingly. Some even pointed fingers as they gossiped about him. At that point, he knew no one was coming to save him.

“Sir, please. You have to believe me. I did not take her wallet. I didn’t…”

“If you did not take it, how did it appear inside your bag?” Susan asked accusingly.

Alex ignored her, focusing his attention on the CEO.

“Sir, please. I didn’t do this…”

One of the CEO’s clients, a petite, sharp tongued woman cut in rudely;

“Mr. Alexander, we were just about to sign a multi-billion dollar contract but after this incident, I don’t think I can trust you or your company.”

The atmosphere was instantly choked with tension.

“Ma’am, I assure you that I will handle this. Please, don’t make any hasty decisions.” Hunter begged.

“No! That’s impossible. How can I trust a company filled with thieves? If the staff cannot even trust one another, how can an outsider like me trust you?”

The CEO turned to Alex with an icy glare.

“Apologise to Susan for stealing her wallet.”

Alex narrowed his eyes in surprise.

“But sir, I did not take her wallet. I’ve been set up. I promise…”

Thwack!

He barely completed his sentence when his left cheek exploded in searing, unimaginable pain.

Alex clutched his cheek in shock and staggered a few steps backwards from the force of the blow.

He barely recovered when a shadow loomed over him once more. Before he could protest, another blinding slap landed on his right cheek.

“How dare you question my orders, you fool? How dare you question me?”

For five full seconds, Alex was partially blinded. He could barely see a step in front of him.

“When you’re done whimpering like a dog,” his boss muttered remorselessly, “clear out your stuff and get the hell out of here. You’ve been suspended. Your salary for this month will not be paid. And do not step those wretched legs of yours into my company until I call you back.”

Alex’ throat burned with disappointment as he got to his feet. Everyone was watching now. All his colleagues watched him struggle and bleed but none of them offered to help. He was all alone.

“Sir, please.” He begged. “ I beg you to reconsider. I have a sick brother in the hospital. How will I pay the hospital bills if you don’t pay me this month?”

Hunter stared at him with a harsh expression.

“How exactly is your sick brother any business of mine? Did you think of him when you stole your co-worker’s wallet? Did you think of your brother when you tried to disrespect one of my most important clients? Your brother can die for all I care. Everything that’s happened here is your fault.”

His words pierced Alex’s heart like a thousand sharp needles. Anger burned in his guts but he had to be sensible. He had to think of his brother.

“Sir, please reconsider your decision. I have to pay my brother’s hospital bills. Please reconsider.”

“I will only help you on one condition.” Hunter growled.

Alex nodded, his chest already swelling with hope.

“What’s the condition, sir? I’ll do anything.”

An evil gleam shone in Hunter’s eyes.

“I want you to admit before everyone here that you’re a thief and you stole Susan’s wallet. I’m giving you five seconds to do that.”

Alex blinked in shock.

“But sir, I didn’t steal…”

“You’re wasting your own time.” Hunter cut in remorselessly. “Five…four…”

An invisible fist squeezed Alex’s heart as he pondered over his choices.

If he admitted to the theft, everyone would label him a thief. If he didn’t, the hospital would throw his brother out on the streets and he could not afford that.

Finally, he made his decision.

He lowered his head, his ears burning with shame as he muttered.

“I’m the thief. I stole Susan’s wallet.”

This was the most humiliating day of his entire life.

“What was that?” Hunter barked. “Sorry, I didn’t hear you. Say it louder and look me in the eye as you do.”

Alex raised his head slowly and did as his boss ordered.

“I did it, everyone. I stole Susan’s wallet. I’m a thief. Please don’t suspend me, sir. I really need the money. Please forgive me.”

Each word he uttered was like a blow to his heart but he sucked up and tried to appear brave.

Hunter’s lips twisted in a devilish smirk and at that very moment, Alex knew he wouldn’t like whatever his boss was going to say next.

“Thank you for admitting that you’re actually a thief. Security! Get this foolish criminal out of my premises immediately! I cannot have him polluting the rest of my staff.”

Alex’ eyes widened in shock, his heart pumping like a runaway train as the guards approached.

“S-sir.” He stammered. “Sir, you promised. You promised me.”

“I do not make promises to thieves. Take him away!”

Before he could put up any more argument, the company’s security guards grabbed him by both his arms and carried him out of the premises kicking and screaming.

They threw him out of the gate and he landed on the concrete floor with a pained grunt. Next, they threw the box containing his few things on him, littering the stationery and books all over the street.

Both men laughed and jeered at him.

“And make sure you don’t come back, you thief. Shame on you!”

Alex watched helplessly, his heart burning with dejection as the guards slammed the gates in his face.

He thought his world had come to an end… but this was only the beginning of his humiliation.

  • 153 — THE END

    SIX MONTHS LATER:“Do you, Alexander Stephan, take Camilla to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health until death do you part?”Alex’s heart was filled with happiness as he replied confidently;“Yes, I do.”The priest turned to Camila and asked her the same question. She nodded eagerly as she responded;“Yes. Yes, I do.”“I now declare you man and wife. You may kiss your bride.”Camilla was glowing with happiness as Alex wrapped his arms around her waist and drew her in for a soft, slow kiss while the audience cheered them on.When he finally drew backwards, he placed his forehead against hers and whispered;“I’m so happy that I finally get to marry the love of my life.”She nodded, her eyes brimming with happy tears. “Let’s be together forever.”“Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Stephan!!” The priest announced.The screams and cheers got louder as the priest raised both their hands to the crowd. The past few months

  • 152 — FINALLY BUSTED

    The moment Blakely left the conference centre, Camilla watched in confusion as Alex started making a series of calls.“Yes, she just left. Get the security detail ready. I hope our bodyguards at the mansion are already on stand-by. Get someone to follow her. We’ll give her thirty minutes max before the operation begins…”When he finally ended all his calls and turned to her, Camilla was way beyond confused. “What’s going on, Alex? You sound like you’re preparing for war.”“More like preparing to catch a snake.” He replied as he lifted her hand and placed a kiss on her knuckles.Camilla frowned. “Snake? What snake?”Alex smiled. “Listen carefully. It’s about Blakely…”***Exactly thirty minutes later, Alex received a call from Peter, his chief-of-security.“Sir, they’re about to resume their operations. Should we strike?”“No. Wait for me. I’ll be there in five minutes.”“Akex, let me come with you.” Camilla begged for the umpteenth time. Alex leaned forward and pressed a kiss aga

  • 151 — WONDERFUL REUNION

    ONE YEAR LATER…So far, Alex had completely frustrated every single one of Blakely’s plan to get him to sign any documents. He read every single document that was brought to him thoroughly before he signed them. He’d also tripled and quadrupled his security, equipping them with modern weapons to enable them to face any kind of threats.There was simply zero space for Blakely and her boyfriend to carry out their devious plans and today, he was finally ready to expose her for who she really was. Alex had left unfinished business in New York when he travelled to Spain and today was the day he finally wrapped it all up. Today the competition between Hunters Technology and Alexander Group was finally coming to an end. Exactly eight months ago, Romanov, one of the members of the Las Vegas Conglomerate had brought a competition to his doorstep. Several companies in New York City were to compete against the Xanders Group of Companies, now known as the Alexander Group of companies. The

  • 150 — THE ULTIMATE PLAN

    After making sure that the Guerreros’ vacated all the properties that belonged to him, it was finally time for Alex to depart for Spain.Camila still refused to see him and despite his insistence, she claimed that she never wanted to see him again. Despite the fact that he’d achieved his goals, his shoulders hung with disappointment and his eyes were downcast as he boarded the private jet that would take him to New York… away from Camila.Ten minutes later, while he was waiting for take off, his phone rang. A quick glance at the caller ID revealed that it was Tony. His detective. “Hello, Tony.”“Hello, sir. I hear you’ll be returning today.”Alex frowned. Only few people knew that information because he wanted to keep his return as under the radar as possible. Few people being him and Tariq.“How did you know that?”“I’m a private Investigstor, sir. How else would I know?”“Have you been watching me?”“For your own safety, yes.”Alex sat up immediately. His interest was piqued.“Wha

  • 149 — PAINFUL SEPARATION

    Tariq’s words settled around the room like dust on a dark, gloomy night.No one said anything for the next few seconds. The room was as quiet as a graveyard… until Mendez broke the silence.“What’s your evidence that you’re really Alexander’s son? You could just be a scam trying to get money from us.”Tariq tried to argue but Alex hurriedly cut in;“There’s no need to enagage them in a fruitless argument when we can just show them prove.”He lifted a finger and one of his guards, Peter, came forward with a briefcase. He retrieved a few papers from the briefcase and handed them to Alex who in turn gave the papers to Mendez.“In case you’re wondering, that’s the DNA test result. It was conducted by Alexander himself before he passed as evidence that I’m really his biological grandson. If you check the date, that test was conducted almost twenty four years ago. Do you believe me now?”Mendez ran his eyes through the papers, his heartbeat tripling with shock. “It can’t be. It can’t fuck

  • 148 — RETURN OF THE CHEATED HEIR

    Suddenly, the television which hung in the conference room came on, displaying footage from the CCTV cameras outside. Everyone turned in its direction and watched in surprise as several tinted, bullet proof cars drove into the premises.“Mr. Alvaro, those cars do not belong to you, do they?”Hugo shook his head. “They don’t. All the cars we came with are already safely parked in the garage. I don’t know who these people are.”Mendez swung into action immediately. He picked up his phone and called the security personnel downstairs.“Seal the building. Nobody comes in and no one goes out. It appears that we have a new set of visitors and I have no idea who they are.”When he was done with the phone call, Mendez put down his phone and forced a smile.“I’m sure everything is perfectly fine. Maybe they missed their way.” He turned to Camila.“Weren’t you about to sign the documents? What are you waiting for?”Camila picked up the pen but once again, they were interrupted by the sounds of
