Chapter 29: Chapter 29
Alexander POV
My head is aching right now, the fact that I had never-ending meetings and bunches of files on my table that need my signature. To make it worse, I can't contact my wife since this morning.
I called the hospital and they said she took an early off. Wow! something is fishy here. I pace back and forth inside my office while gripping my hair for frustration.
Finally, after 76 attempts I connected to her line.
"Hello Alex," she said in a sweet voice. Shit.. no no I am mad at now.
"Where are you? I been calling you 76 times already?" I said angrily towards her.
"Alex lower your voice. I am busy you know" she said.
"Busy? I called the hospital and they said you went off early. Are cheating on me now?" I burst angrily. The word cheat is enough to make us want to punch someone right now.
"Huh? Me cheating on you? Alex... are you stupid?" Wow, she's now. The nerve of her got angry to me when she's at fault here.
"Stupid? So now I am stupid? You can't even deny it. Where are you? I will kill that man you replace me" I am still very mad.
"Shut up! If you don't calm down right now I will never talk to you," she said while threatening me.
"Wow, you have the nerve to get mad at me? When you're the one who cheated?"
"Alex I am not cheating on you and never will. I love you OK. I went off early because Lucy and your Mom asked me a favor to meet them up" she said
"Thank God. I love you more too wifey. Wait why are you with them and where are you now?" I let go a huge sigh. I thought she cheated on me.
"Lucy and your mom asked me a favor and I am currently in the studio waiting for the result" she explained.
"Huh? why are you in the studio? And waiting for the result? What's going on?"
"Easy OK! I am in the studio because Lucy asked me to be her model for her upcoming collection in your mom fashion brand."
"What??? Do they ask for my wrath right now? What the hell I don't even know about this? When I am the CEO here"
"Alex come down! Anyway, I did what they asked me. I don't want to disappoint them so I tag along." She said.
"Your too nice to them that's why I don't want them near you. They will tag you anywhere without informing me. I will talk to them seriously"
"Alex your very possessive right now. They're not other people OK? They're your family. Please don't get mad at them. Please" she sweet and kind. And those two took advantage of it.
"Fine text me your location and I will be there. I will finish first my last meeting and I will go straight there"
"OK, Alex. They don't get mad? Please... please..." Haizt I can't say no to this when she pleads in a sweet addicting voice.
"Fine! But next time tell me. I mean forget it. It will never have the next time. I will not let them take you without me knowing."
"Hahhaha.. yes! Alex goes to your meeting now. I will be waiting for you bye and drive safely. Love you" wow... I can't wait to get her. And take her home and cuddle with her.
"I love you more babe" then I cut the call. After 1 minute I received a text from her telling me the location.
I went off in her direction after finishing my meeting in 30 minutes. I reached it and the guard open the door for me since they know who I am.
I look for my wife and spotted her talking to Lucy. I give her a quick kiss on the lips and take a seat beside her then hug her tightly. I miss this smell even I smell it every day I can't get enough of it.
I scold Lucy for taking my wife without informing me. It earns a lot of arguments of course. We stop when my mom came towards us looking ecstatic and
squealing like a teenager.
"Look look... the photo shoot is a success. It's beautiful rather it's beyond beautiful." She said while she hand the envelope.
I snatch it and open it. My jaw almost sunk to the floor. I look at my wife in awe. Its shows three photos of her in a different outfit. Shit, my mom is right she's beyond beautiful.
Lucy looks at it and jumps like a kid.
"Yes yes yes! I am right. She will look good in my creation" she keeps on jumping while crying for happiness.
"Well, Photoshop works," my wife said calmly.
"Are you kidding me, dear? It's not Photoshop. It's the way you are." My mom corrected her.
"As much as I found the photo beautiful I mean beyond beautiful. I will not allow it to put in the catalog"
"Why...????" My mom and sister said in unison.
"Because as what I said she's beyond beautiful there. I don't want a bunch of stupid freaks eyeing her or raping her body by just looking in her pictures " I explained to them. It earns a giggle from her.
"But brother it's a waste to just put it aside. She's not wearing a scandalous dress anyway. Please... please.." Lucy said trying to convince me.
"She's the right son. I will put it on the billboards. It will look good. Is it OK dear? To put you in the billboard.?" My mom asked her.
"It's OK to me. I mean if he allows it" She said while pointing at me.
"No! Don't put it in the billboard. I will only allow it in the catalog but give me a copy of it. I will frame it and put it inside my office" I said to them.
My wife smiled at me then she slip her hands on my hips then hug me.
"Awe! You two are so sweet! Just give a grandchild already" my mom said.
"Yup! I want a girl so I can make her a model for my collection" Lucy said with dreamy eyes.
"I always told her that. I also asked her to get married you know. But she declined " I told them pouting while looking down cause she's still hugging me.
"Let's get you to recover first Alex. Then will get married" She told me.
My eyes go wide and I hug her tightly and twirl her around.
"Yes yes yes! You won't take it back right?" I told her smiling.
"I won't silly," she said while pinching my nose.
"Sissy don't marry him you will get bored because he is boring," my sister said jokingly.
"Shut up" And I glared at her.
"I won't get bored to him Lucy. He's funny you know"
"Ah ah funny huh?" I grab her and put her in my arms carrying her like a baby.
"Alex put me down. Your embarrassing me" she said while hitting my chest.
"No, mom Lucy we will go home now. And don't forget my copies of the photo. I want it in my office early in the morning."
"OK son take care of the two of you"
"Bye sis and bye my annoying brother"
"Bye Priscilla and Lucy" she waved her hands to them. While I carried her towards the door. But before we get out my sister shouted at us.
"Sissy next time, I will model you with my swimsuit collection" Lucy playfully said and earn a glare from me.
"Just try and I will burn it" I shouted angrily. Then we went outside.
"Alex put me down now. I can walk on my own. People are staring at us." She said while covering her face to my neck. Wow, she's really cute.
"Nah I'm good!" I answered smiling widely.
