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 hadn’t 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 had come to a conclusion last night to immerse himself in a lot of work to distract his mind from the gnawing problems of life.
His father had called last 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 the compound.
Los Angelos
Walking out of the hospital, Amelia sighed as she gripped the bag tightly, she was wearing a trouser and a shirt, a black jacket to match.
She was finally done with the last treatment and the doctor had told her that she was fine now but still has to continue with her drugs for a complete recovery.
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 Amelia’s 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 villa they were occupying.
Amelia didn’t 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 internet.
Sure enough, the Ron’s group were top search as they hit a major market price and their net 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 plan for his business and all.
The world doesn’t know about her relationship with Alexander as they haven’t 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 didn’t 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.
“He’s 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-It’s nothing!” Amelia quickly turn off the screen of her phone and looked out of the window to cover up her expression.
Travis didn’t bother with her anymore as he focused on the road.
Amelia’s 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 doesn’t look fine at all.
He was much more thinner than before, though he wasn’t fat or fleshy before but now, he was much more worst than before.
He wasn’t as handsome as he was before with those curly hairs that looked somehow disheveled.
His eyes looked so empty as he answered the woman’s questions.
There was this weak look in his eyes that made her heart bleed for him, she felt somehow guilty that she wasn’t there to help him, to help soothe him.
Just as they arrived the entrance of the villa, Amelia hurriedly placed 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 Travis’s hand.
Amelia snapped her head at Travis with a questioning gaze with a ‘what’s 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 to come over through the back door, we wouldn’t 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.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Gasp
Amelia gasped in shocked as she continue reading the words in the file…
“A-a multi million Dollars Mall, a SUV Benz and a Cheque of Eight million dollars!!!!!????”
