Chapter 89
ALEXIA
Dylan kissed my lips, he gently rubbed my lap smiling at me. Just then, Clarissa and Rayden walked in. Clarissa led the way.
' I can't believe that bitch said that!" Clarissa shouted.
I stood from my seat and walked to the sofa where we all sat.
'what do you plan to do now?" Rayden asked.
'For now, we are waiting for the next meeting. Her video is going viral and people are already talking shit about me which will affect the company a lot like the face of it." I sighed. My mom would be so disappointed in me right now.
' I will beat the hell out of here if I ever lay my eyes on her!" Clarissa lashed. I could feel the anger radiating off her.
I didn't do anything, I only stared into space wondering what was going to happen next. I knew Regan would have moved out of the hotel, she wouldn't be able to face us after what she did. I was so sure.
'C'mon let's go out," Rayden suggested.
'I got a new recipe and I need you all to try it and rate it truthfully."
' Okay, I will text Alexander. He'll join us later."
' I texted Brendax too, c'mon guys!" Rayden added.
I and Dylan rode in his car while Clarissa and Rayden rode in another car. We arrived at Rayden's restaurant in some minutes.
Entering inside, there were a lot of people and the interior designs had changed a lot since the last time I came here. I smiled at my friend's success.
Rayden got us a table that we all sat in. Rayden served us all personally before taking her seat. At the same time, Brendax and Alexander arrived together. Alexander was without his. bodyguards again.
We all sat around the table. However, before I could begin with my phone, something strange happened; something I wasn't really expecting - at least not now.
The
^Isnt that Alexia James?
^That freaking slut!
^Rich people can be so shameless, she even came out with him.
^WHY WON'T YOU ALLOW DYLAN YOUNG TO BE A FATHER TO THAT YOUNG BOY?!
One of the customers didn't seem nice at all, she threw me the mashed potato on her plate and it hit my face.
I gently covered it, tears brimming in my eyes already.
^How can you be so wicked and heartless?! That you are really little and he needs a man figure in his life!
I stood up quickly.
Clarissa and Rayden already did. While Rayden's employees escorted the violent customers out of the store.
Dylan came to my side, helping me up.
'You can take the back route to get to your car. They will wait for her outside and I don't want them to hurt her!" Rayden shouted.
Dylan nodded his head and took me in the direction but we barely got anywhere when Alexander came to me and dragged me away from Dylan. Alexander glared at Dylan.
'What's wrong man?" Dylan asked.
' fuck you man!" Alexander cussed then punched Dylan's face. The punch sent Dylan to the back almost making him fall.
'What the hell, Alex!" I shouted and pushed him away.
' it's all his fault. This is all his fault. What did I tell you about hurting her?! Hurting her doesn't have to be with the heart but this, your fucking mistake just made her a scapegoat for what she didn't even know about. How long do you think you can protect her through the back door like this?!" Alexander shouted.
'Stop it!" I shouted at him.
' No, he is right Alexia. I caused all these. You are here paying for my mistake."
' Yes, because you are my boyfriend we are supposed to share everything and even the pain. I am not blaming you, you apologized for your mistake and you even owned up to it. Regan is the deceitful one here." I uttered looking at him but he shook his head.
'C'mon Alexia, I will take you to the car." Alexander offered and I followed him glancing one more time at Dylan.
'You shouldn't have punched him," I said entering the car.
'I know, I was too annoyed. I couldn't bear the thought of seeing you hurt talk more of seeing you like this." He looked at me, he raised his hand and touched my already swollen eyes.
'Let me take you to the hospital. You need to be treated." He ignited and drove to the hospital.
Three Days Later:
The board meeting started. I sat in my position listening to each shareholder cry out. The executive assistant, Liam showed us how much we have lost in less than twenty hours since the video came out to the public.
I sighed knowing we would go bankrupt at this rate. The shareholders have started to talk about withdrawing their shares. My eyes watered at the way they talked and ranted.
'Y'all have to shut up and let's think of a better plan!" Dylan snapped.
Mr. Young looked at his son.
I sighed. I knew I needed to do something. There was nothing to do, it was either Regan to clear my name or Dylan... Dylan and she will announce that they are now together; I have left him for her.
Someone advised me to go live, and explain myself to them but would they believe me? No one would believe me especially when the replica of Dylan was in her hands standing as the evidence. One look at that boy and you can guess that he belongs to Dylan.
'Dylan will clear the air, he will be on the Tv tomorrow and he will inform the public about our break... Breakk up. Also, getting married to Rayden and playing a fatherly role in the life of the child." I announced, stood up, and walked out.
Everywhere was silent, no one said anything as though they just realized how sad I am. No one cares about me but the business, the profit rate, and gains. It was all everyone cared about.
Entering my office, I shut the door knowing full well that Dylan would come after me. Indeed, he knocked on the door while I packed my bag, preparing to go back home.
'Alexia, there are better ways to solve this issue. We could go live, we could explain that Rayden is a liar..."
'What about the baby? How would we explain that to them?" I thought in my heart but he got the memo because he kept quiet.
And what if Rayden files him for rape? He would be gone and dead, no one would be able to save him.
Sighing, I finished packing my bag and walked to the private elevator in my office. I did that for days like this; days I would love to be alone.
