Chapter 140 Something

• "I had no idea you were coming to work today," Patrick said when he was in Alex office... Alex sat down and sighed deeply. "I'm trying to find someone, but you don't have to worry, just focus on your work and what you are doing" Alex said and squinted his eyes at Patrick, who looked a little bit nervous. Patrick had not reported anything to him yet, which he found a bit odd, but only thought it was because he didn't find anything, but now he wasn't so sure anymore... "Do you have anything to tell me?" Alex asked, and Patrick shook his head... his eyes darted across the room, and Alex knew he always acted like that anytime he was nervous... He was either hiding something from him or was contemplating if he should tell him or not. "Patrick, are you hiding something from me. is it about my mother?" Alex asked, but before Patrick could talk, there was a soft knock on Alex door... The door was pushed open slowly, and Olivia walked into his office. her eyes darting from Alex to Patrick who looked Like a little kid that was getting scolded, he looked adorable and she had to hold back a smile "Sir you have a visitor, its your cousin" Olivia informed. "Charles?" Alex said and remembered he hadn't been seeing Charles around for a while. "Let him in," He said, and Olivia let to do as she was told, while Alex returned his attention back to Patrick. "We will talk later," he said, and Patrick turned to leave...
• A few seconds later, Charles walked into Alex office with a bright smile on his face while Patrick walked past him with a sombre look on his face... "Where have you been?" Alex asked when Patrick took a seat on the couch in his office... Alex stood up from behind his desk and sat on the couch also.... "I've been around, you didn't even call me once to check up on me" Charles playfully glared at his cousin, he had no idea the ordeal Alex had been going through, but alex simply smiled slightly at him... "I met someone and I'm getting married soon." Charles dropped a bomb, and Alex just stared at him, completely surprised by this news... "What!" Alex said in disbelief, and Charles nodded... "Does aunt know about this?" He asked, and Charles nodded. "Yes, she does," Charles answered, and Alex sighed deeply... "Do I know her?" The smile on Charles face immediately dwindled... "Yes, you do... it's Gina, " Charles answered, and a deep frown immediately settled on Alex face. how could he forget that crazy lady when she almost ran juliet over... he had warned her to stay away from him, and now she wanted to marry his cousin. that was no way he was going to let that happen...
• "Are you crazy?" Alex said, slowly feeling his blood starting to boil in his veins... "Do you have any idea the type of person she is?" he added, and Charles didn't look one bit pleased by Alex words. he instead looked pissed that Alex would talk about Gina like that and if he was talking about how she wanted to marry Alex at first then that was all in the past, she only did that because of her father and his pressure not because she had feelings for Alex...
