8. A visit to Hong Kong!
'Alvita Brown!!!' I heard my name coming from the lobby.
I waiting patiently to see who It was, confirming it was Olivia, I just hissed and went back to what arranging files.
oh my god babes!! Just seeing your text from last night... oh my god. Tell me the details asap.
'Will you calm down please. We will talk about this after work' I pleaded
"Nope! Right now. You have to tell me right now"
'Fuck!! Hmmmm! fine' I agreed.
'So after the party, he came over to my house and then took me to some hill and literarily begged me to give me an answer, it took me a while but then I told hin Yes!! then.... he kissed me (: .' I concluded.
'Wow!! Awwwwww. You guys are so cute, so wait, how was the kiss?' Olivia asked in a dirty tone
'Ewwwww, you slutty! Can you get back to your office please. I have a lot of work to do.' I asked
Well, I have a meeting with some board of directors so yeah, I will be off now, hmmmm and Mr. Brain is ready to sign the contract and he is paying in cash, your meeting with him is in 15mins, please don't mess it up' Olivia said.
'Have I ever messed up' I asked as I waved her out of my office.
I need to make sure Mr. Brain isn't backing out. Seven hundred million dollars a good bargain.
'Hello Mr. Brain, I hope I didn't keep you waiting?' I asked respectfully
'Not at all Miss, I am sure you have gone through the contract, I have the funds here please sign and let's seal the deal.' Mr Brain went straight to business
' I'm happy you and I are on the same page.' I said as I pulled the contract closer and signed at the necessary position.
Mr Brain did his part to and push a cute big balenciaga bag my way, I unlocked the zip to open and discovered that's the fund he was talking about. The complete money, seven hundred million dollars cash!! Wow.... this is huge.
It's nice doing business with you and I promise to deliver beyond your expectations. I stretched out my hand to shake him and he responded.
*********
I'm so famished, I need to get some to eat...
'Hello angel' I heard the sweet voice say
'Hey alex' I replied as I raised my head up from my desk.. 'how are you're? I asked.
'I'm good, was thinking we should grab lunch together'. He said like he was fighting imaginary food.
I laugh in response and stood up to move closer to him. 'This dude is funny'! I whispered to myself.
'So where do you have in mind'? I asked him
'Hmmmrrr.... bla.....' he said as he was caught off by Olivia's voice.
When will that lady learn not to shout my name no more I thought as I rolled my eyes.
Olivia barged into my office in style, dropped some file and left like she didn't see anyone standing. Such an ass.
'So you were saying'? I asked seductively
'What of Lochte?!' He asked as he caressed my waist very close to his and dropped a light kiss on my neck.
A cold shiver ran through my spine which made me gasping for air. Lol, this nigga is surely an ass, he looks all so innocent like he'd never touched a lady before but knows how to plant a heartwarming kiss, wow!! Just wow!!
'So'? Alex interrupted my thoughts
'Yeah sure, anywhere you want, let me just glance through what Olivia brought' I concluded
'You can always do that when we back babe'. He said as he literally dragged me out of the office to the parking lot.
Driving to Lochte was the shortest but most fun I have ever had in a car. Alex is amazing mehn!, he is so romantic like I can't even think about the fact that he's mine, it's just like a dream. I thought relationship is drama and shit but Alex is cool mehn!, he is so diligent and considerate. I stared at him as we walked into Lochte with out hands entangled together.
'Do you like here or?' He asked gently
'Honestly speaking? Yeah!... I've never been here, how did you find here?' I asked like I cared. Not that I didn't care but who cares tho?
'Hmm, i come here often.' He said straight up.
'Will you take your orders now'? He added
'Sure! What's on there menu'? I asked as I picked up there menu, at this time a waitress was already beside me
'Good day ma'am... Sir! May I take your orders?' She asked politely.
'Hmm, I will love a chicken with cheese hamburger and french fries with sauce, with water please. I requested
'And you sir' she asked as she faced Alex.
'Macaroni and cheese please, a bit spicy.' He said.
While we await our orders, A very heart soothing Chapman and ice was served, Actually I really don't like or take chapman smooves but this is so heart warming like I felt so ... Alex is quite sensitive, he noticed me having a good time with my drink and offered me his, asking me if I would love to have more, at this moment I quickly held up with myself a smile and said to him 'thanks babe, I must say this is so refreshing, I love this, like I really don't take this but right now,'I'm a lover of this'!. I said with some little chuckles on my face.
Alex cut's in, clears his throat
'if you would allow me my lady I can definitely have this brought to you at the office everyday, anything for you my jewel' he asked solemnly
I was lost in thought like oh my gosh, this guy is just my perfect picture. I've been wanting and praying for *hmmm I quickly cut out and got out of my thoughts.
hmmm hmmm Awww thanks babe' I responded cutely.
'Your order is served,' The waitress said nicely
'Thank you' I and Alex replied together
A bite out of my hamburger was everything. It made me remember the day my dad choked on one. Lol.
'Are you enjoying that'? Alex asked.
Yeah! Very much even, I just thought of investing in this restaurant, or what do you think'? I asked me
Alex had this priceless look on his face. Is he shocked?
'Alex' I called out softly
'Hmmm! Sorry, what did you say'? He asked like he didn't hear me.
'I said I want to invest in this restaurant, the thought just crossed my mind' I said a bit louder
Oh!, that's great, why tho'? Alex asked
Why not? They are good, very very good. If I invest in them for two to three years, I'm 85% sure my profit will be lit. I said as I turned on my phone to check the time
'oh my god! We have to go'. I said
'Why'? Alex asked like I just said shit
'Hmm! Cause Olivia sent tons of text already' I said as
I got up from the soft chair I was sitting on. Alex had no choice but to get up too, approaching Alex's BMW I thought, how is a broke nigga able to afford a BMW, like, this that I'm seeing can't be less than five hundred thousand dollars.
Fuck! Alex? That's Alex. A lady's voice brought me out of my thought
She was almost running towards our direction but controlled herself cause it was fucking obvious. How does she know Alex?
'Hey Marian'. Alex said softly
How are you doing? You just disappeared you know? Where have you been?
Hmmmm, this is my girlfriend, Alvita.
Babe, this is Marian, my friend
Oh....H.....your friend? Marian cuts me off, was I just your friend? She continued to speak. Any ways I hope you are good! David will be so glad to hear from you.
'Send my regards please' Alex said
She zoomed off.
'Babe, can you drive my car to the office, I will see you in 30 minutes' Alex asked
'Sure but how will you get back' I asked back
'Don't stress' he said as he walked me to the driver's seat. He started the car engine and closed the door and I drove off without saying anything. This car is amazing, I should get something like this but definitely not black, I've got enough black toys. Deep in my thoughts as I drove to the office.
Olivia already dominated my office and is having donut on my desk.
Wow! Just wow!
Why are you here? I asked her like i didn't know
'Cause I have been sending you text and even calling you and not for once did you pick up or reply my texts. So I felt you were already off work'. She explained
So you dominate my office everytime I'm off work? I queried her, jokingly.
'Not everytime. Well, have you gone through the files I brought? Olivia asked
'No, can you pass it please? I asked
Going through the files was a bit boring,
'About this HONG Kong hotel, did you seal the contract? I asked Olivia.
'Yes, a copy of the contract is also here on your table. That's the news I brought the other time I met lover boy here' Olivia said.
'The name of the hotel is Cryptic palace. We will be staying there when we get to HONG Kong. We will be going with Greg, Braian, Steven, Rose and Emily, hmmmm, and we have to stay for the Launching. She concluded
'So when are we going'? I asked
'Next tomorrow'. Olivia replied
How long will we be there? I asked again
Since we have helping hands two weeks which is the actual deadline Crystal palace gave us'. She replied
Ok! Who will be doing the pitch? I asked
You of cause! Olivia said
'I won't be doing the pitch, if you can't do it either, you can tell any other person to do the pitch.
'I guess I'm doing the pitch' Olivia said sharply
Can you start base one of the program while I do base two, tonight and tomorrow night so we will be done with the base four. When we get to HONG Kong all that will be left is tapping there server with the codes. Makes our work easier and fast, and we will be able to enjoy our time in HONG Kong. I said
'And can you please add Alex's name to the list of workers going. Thanks'. I added.
'Hmmm, and can you please drop this on his desk please'. said.
'Yeahhhhhh, sure why not'? She replied.
Hmmmm, but why are you with car key? She asked
'I lend it! My car is faulty, so I asked him to drive me to get lunch'.
Oh!!, ok.
I left the office as fast as I could before Olivia asks another question. But come to think of it? Who was that? That left Alex so cold. And then he left me, wow!. Hmmmm, well, let me not affect my mental health with this, I'm sure there is a good explanation to all of this.
Shutting the door to the car, as I bounced into my mansion. What a day? A cold shower was just the answer, after I had my shower, decided to cook cause it's been a while I actually cooked for myself. Nevertheless, I made macaroni and cheese, set my table with a heavy yogurt, I love yogurt and icecream and a lot of sweet creams. I'm a sweet cream lover.
'It's 6:59pm, and Alex hasn't called, I hope he is ok'.
*Phone Ringing
'Hello'. I picked up the call
'How are you doing? I was just thinking about you, so I decided to call to check up on you, I got my keys from Olivia, thanks.
'Yeah, I'm good, where are you? Are you ok? Wanted to call but was stuck up with cooking, I still have more of you care to join me'. I said to him to make him come over.
'Oh, ok. Will be there in few minutes. What did you cook? He asked curiously.
'Macaroni and cheese, I can also make chicken soup with rice balls or noodle soup for later so if you wanna stay over. I replied bluntly
Ok. And he dropped the call.
*Few minutes later
Knock!!
I got up from the sofa close to the entrance of my sitting room, to get the door.
'Hey! I said
'Watsup. I said as he hugged me passionately.
'Come in', I offered
'Can I get my food now please, cause I came here to eat, watch amazing movies and sleep. I need to rest'. He said and I could hear the hyperbole in his voice.
Come on, I'm gonna get your food right away, go to the dining table, will be with you in a minute.
'Hmm, Alex, we will be going to Hong Kong Next tomorrow'. I said to Alex
'For real? Nice, we, as in you and I'? He asked
'Nah, it's a business trip, finish your food, I will be up, wanna get some rest'. I said as I matched to my room.
This is the end of chapter 8, please send reviews and let me know how to improve. Get ready for what HONG Kong has installed for Alex.
