Chapter 09

"Are you sure he's into her?" Rommy asked sitting at the corner. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. "Yes I'm sure Rommy. i saw that look in his eyes. He has feelings for her. Why do you think he distanced himself from me. Because to him I'm his biggest threat" Daniel answered back. He couldn't believe that his best friend choose a girl over him. What happened to the bro code. " Well the new girl sure is something. Two best friend fighting for her" Rhoda said while laughing. To her Randy and Dani were more than friends. They were like brothers and for a girl to ruin their friendship is something she didn't foresee.

"So what are you going to do?" Rommy asked drinking his coke. "For now nothing. Tomorrow I'm going to Australia with my father for some important business. What i need from you two is to keep everything a secret. No one should know our plans not even our parents."Dani replied back standing from the chair and walking out. The two just followed him behind him. Rommy Rhoda and Daniel were planning to start their own company. Although they came from powerful families,they thought that by joining forces no one would stop them in the business world. Just think the net worth of their company would become close to 600 million dollars and would generate an income worth an outstanding 1 billion per year alone. In five years they will become almost untouchable. They wanted to include Randy but given the recent turn of events they have doubts over.

At Hathaway Enterprises

"Ma'am reports suggest that Mr Alex is in the city. He landed last night in a private airplane." This did not sound too good. For Martha Alex coming here means he knows his daughter is here. This was more bad news.And what's worse is that they cannot afford to move again. They just settled and this would upside Anne. Also her business here wasn't finished yet. "Double security make sure no one gets in or out without being detected. And hire a shadow guard for Anne." Michael just nodded and left. He was Martha's right hand man and has been with her since when her empire was just small. Just then Martha's phone rang on the table and it was a private number.But she already had an idea who it was.

Martha:Hello

Alex:Nice to hear from you dear Wife.How are you doing

Martha: How dare you call me wife you pig.

Alex: I've missed you. How ling has it been?15 years? Do you really think shifting towns was gonna help you?

Martha: What do you want Alex?

Alex: I want to see my daughter Martha.its been years i wanna get to know her spend time with her

Martha: That would never happen. You dont deserve to be with her. Don't come near her

Alex:Well are you threatening me now?

Martha: Think whatever you must but I'm never going to let you near Anne.

Alex:We will see

And with that the phone hang up. Now Martha was afraid and scared. Not for her but for Anne because to Anne,Alex has been dead for over 10 years. If she finds out the truth it won't be good. Anne's going to hate her forever.

"How waz your conversation with your dear Wife?"Asked Hawa. She was with Alex at his mansionbecause well due to security reasons she can't afford to be seen in public.Not yet anyway.

"I can say it went pretty damn well.She now is scared meaning she won't see your attacks coming."Answered Alex.He was sure their plan would work out because it was planned perfectly and it was full proof.

"What about your daughter?You have to get her out of there before everything is executed. She might be caught in the crossfire"Hawa said.Although she hated Martha she had no grudges against Anne. She was innocent in all of this.Hawa and Anne were like sisters. Hawa is 2 years older than Anne and although it is hard to believe Hawa tales Anne as her young sister.So it wont be good if Anne gets caught because apart from the guilt Alex won't forgive her and she doesn't want another enemy to deal with.

"Don't worry i have a plan.As soon as our plan is set into motion Anne will come to live with me and she will become the princess she was meant to be.An heir to my empire.I won't allow her to suffer to her mothers mistake." Answered Alex with a smile. To Alex Anne was his everything and it pained him that they got separated for almost a decade. So now he plans to spend every minute with her.

"Lets toast then. To our partnership and a happy thereafter."Hawa said raising up her glass. They toasted and continued to talk about the next steps to their big plan.
