NFTMB)Chapter 50
Alessandro
(Miss CEO)
“What brings you to my office unannounced and unwanted, Sofia?”
“You got someone else pregnant and you’re getting married?!”. She screeched immediately after dropping her bag on the couch.
I hate whenever she does that.
“It’s good you’re finally deciding to pay attention to the news”
“What do you mean?! I asked you a question?”
“And who the hell are you to demand answers from me? You’re nothing to me! Don’t you ever make that mistake ever again!”
“I’m sorry, Alessandro, I’m just very surprised at this news. Why would you do this to me? Why would you do this to us?”
I threw my head back against my seat and laughed at her purposeful naivety.
“Us? What us? There is no us, Sofia!”
She shook from fear at my tone as I stared her down.
“No, we had something good going on, Alessandro. It was Roberta who ruined what good thing we had.
And now that she is gone, we are supposed to have the time of ourselves and be free to love ourselves openly and now there’s another woman preventing us from being together”
“You really are a comedian, aren’t you?. Is this a skit or something because you can’t seriously be spewing this bullshit in front of me!”
“I’m serious, my love. I’m not joking”
“Don’t you ever call me that!”. I said in anger as I banged my hands on the table rattling the contents and catching Sofia off guard.
Why would she call me that?!
“But I love you”
“I warn you for the last time, Sofia! Don’t ever call me that! Now why are you here?!”
“I’m here to plead with you to change your mind”
“You really have a lot of nerve, Sofia”. I said while rubbing my chin as I couldn’t help the chuckle that escaped from my throat at her words. “Now get the hell out of my building!”
“No, please. I beg you, don’t do this to me!”
In a second Sofia was on her knees in front of me as she held my right hand in her two hands.
“Shouldn’t you be mourning your sister? Why are you here trying to seduce her ex husband?”
“Mourn? I thought she was just missing?”
A crystal clear look of confusion was splashed across her face.
“Oh, my bad. Aren’t you supposed to be mourning the disappearance of your sister? You haven’t even held your nephew in your arms, Sofia? What kind of aunt are you?”. I asked her gently while patting her head.
“I uh- I haven’t met him yet but I know that my nephew, Martin is a good kid”
I watched the idiot blab on about what or rather who she didn’t know anything about starting with his name. What a fool she was if she thought that she could deceive me.
“Oh is that so?”. I asked her.
“Yes”.
I grabbed her face and pressed harder on her jaw to the point that I could easily count the number of teeth in her mouth with how tightly I gripped her jaw. Her full lips instantly puckered up at my actions.
“His name is Matteo NOT Martin, you dumb, lying whore! You should be ashamed of yourself! You do not even know your nephew’s name. Get the hell out of my sight and never show yourself to me again!”
I dropped her to the floor like a piece of rag.
“I’m sorry. It was a mistake”
“It’s not, don’t lie to me!”
“Please, don’t marry that woman. It will kill me! When will you ever see me?”. She asked in tears as she crawled to me again.
“Don’t touch me!”
“Please, Alessandro!”
“I will never see you, Sofia. Matter of fact I don’t even see you now when you’re begging in front of me and I never saw you even when you were naked in front of me. I’m very sure as hell that I would still never see you for as long as you live!”
Her hands slipped out of mine in shock and hurt as her tears fell on cue.
“Get the hell out of my office now, Sofia!”
“No, please”
“You don’t want to leave? Fine!”. I pressed the intercom. “Dave, come in”
“What are you doing?”. She asked in confusion as I got up and picked up a few of my personal belongings from my table as Dave walked into my office immediately.
“Yes, sir?”
“Dave, Sofia here will continue the meetings I had lined up for the rest of the day”
“What?”
“Okay, sir”
“Yes, and also make sure that the cameras are set up at very strategic places so my pregnant wife and I can watch her conduct the meetings at home. I’ll be leaving now. Thank you relieving me of my work load, Sofia”
“No, Alessandro!”
“Noted, sir!”
“Good. After each meeting, I will give you directives, Dave. If she fucks it up, you’re to hold her hostage here till my men come to pick her up and then she will pay for her mistakes with her life”.
“Yes, sir!”.
Fear gripped Sofia so much that her eyes almost bulged out of their sockets in fear.
“Alright, Dave. Take care of the place and remain very vigilant. I’ll be leaving now”.
I hung my jacket over my shoulder and pocketed my phone before making my way to the door.
“Please, Alessandro stop this! I’m leaving with you! I know nothing about business!”. She said in a rush as he attempted to hold my hand which I stopped her from doing with a stare.
“Touch my arm and die where you stand!”
She shrunk back in fear as started to take slow steps to the door.
I only had to look at Dave for him to understand the sign and grab her swiftly from behind caging her in his arms.
“Good luck, Miss CEO”. I waved at her before leaving as Dave forcefully held her down as she still struggled in his hold and tried to wiggle out of his grasp while I made my way downstairs to the parking lot to head home.
She really shouldn’t have come here today. I told her to leave but instead she forced her way in. Now she will pay the price.
“Good evening, Sir”
“Good evening, Roger”. I said to the security guard at the company building.
As I brought the engine to life my mind fleeted back to my son who was fast asleep in the morning when I left.
He was the very first thing that came to my kind as I passed by a shop that displayed a miniature version of a suit.
It was cute, I can’t lie about that.
He’s so little that I’m sure the outfit would look so good on him. I pulled over and alighted from my car as my attention was fully on the little suit.
I had a foolish grin on my face as I paid for the not so cheap baby suit. The appearance was quite deceptive.
It cost a pretty penny.
As I placed the outfit in the backseat my eyes caught sight of another outfit being displayed at the opposite shop.
This one wasn’t for a baby or even for a male. It was for a woman and I’m very sure it would look killer on Victoria.
I could almost imagine what she would look like in this dress.
She would look absolutely seductive in this dress.
It was a yellow flowing dress with no sleeves. The dress only had very tiny straps that should be tied behind the neck to keep the dress safely on the chest. The back of the dress was bare and I know this would be a very difficult dress to pull off.
The very bold and daring slit that ran for ages and ages was something that would make people do a double take at whoever would don this outfit.
My wife was going to look absolutely stellar in this dress.
I walked into the shop that hung up the dress and purchased it immediately and drove off from the shop to my house almost instantly.
Arriving inside the house, I noticed a few cars parked right outside the house.
Who the hell dares to try this on my property.
As I locked the car door behind me and made my way inside, it was almost as if I just walked into a party.
“What the hell is going on here?!”
The lively chatter and music stopped immediately at the sound of my voice as all eyes snapped to me.
My eyes immediately met Amara’s tired ones as she held a tray of snacks and another containing drinks in her hand.
She silently went back into the kitchen after placing the snacks and the drinks on the table.
“Oh sorry, Alessandro, I didn’t tell you about my friends that were coming over. I haven’t seen them in years”
Everything about this girl just irks me. The sound of her voice irritates me to no end. My anger reached new heights as Jasmine tried to justify her bringing her lousy friends into my house.
“Who the hell gave you the right to host your friends in my house!”
Jasmine flinched in fright as a boy with shaggy blonde hair stepped up in front of her and dared to place his hands on my chest.
“Woah, chill out man. We were only having fun. It’s not like we’re hurting anyone”.
I immediately grabbed his hand that he dared to place on my chest and twisted it to his back as I applied pressure till I heard a snap.
“Ahhhhhh!”
“Alessandro, stop!”
“Shut the fuck up!”
She shut her mouth immediately as she looked at me in horror.
The other present at the party made the mistake of trying to tell me what to do.
“Jaz, who is this crazy man?!”
“Let go of him!”
“You’re hurting him!”
“Oh no, I’m sure his arm is broken!”
I pushed the fool to the floor as I proceeded to head to my room.
“Crazy? I’ll show you crazy!”
“Please, you all have to leave now!”
Jasmine’s irritating voice could be heard as she tried to get them to leave as I headed straight for my room.
I opened the door to see Victoria still cuffed to the bed. I dropped the bags on the bed and went straight to what I came for.
“Alessandro, you’re back!”
I ignored her as I reached for what I came to get. I heard Victoria gasp as I fished out my shotgun that I reserved specifically for special moments like this.
I went downstairs to see them all still there as Jasmine was still trying to get them to leave.
“Guys, you have to leave!”
“Jaz, look he’s got a gun!”
I gripped the gun firmly in my grasp, holding it back and turning the safety off before placing my finger on the trigger.
“Get down on the floor!”. One of the boys shouted to the others.
“What’s wrong? Aren’t you all supposed to be enjoying the party?”. I asked them as they wore frightened expressions on their faces.
Except for one boy.
The boy with the buzz cut and tanned skin didn’t seem scared of me as he slowly got up from the floor and faced me as I stood at the top of the stairs.
“Take one more step, boy and you’re dead meat”. I warned him as he still looked at me with hard eyes with his hands in surrender.
“I’m not scared of you”. He said as his facial expression conveyed the honesty in his words.
He didn’t look scared of me.
“Gabriel!”
“Just one step”. I was really itching to use him as an example.
He slowly took another step while my finger was still on the trigger.
It was almost as if he wanted to challenge me and see what I would do, so without thinking I fired the gun immediately.
He was very quick enough to duck almost instantly, making the bullet hit someone else.
They all screamed as the shot was fired but my main focus was the figure on the floor hissing in pain while clutching to their arm.
Shit!
