Unwanted visitor

“Where are you going? I thought you came to see me!” Evelyn hurried to block him from leaving her office.

“Is still early Evelyn, I have to go to work, I’m only here to check up on you” he held her cheeks gently caressing them with his big thumbs she smile and held his hands.

"You’ve forgiven me, right?” She looked up to him smiling at him with those puppy eyes.

Alex looked into those eyes and saw how innocent she is, “No! She not the one”  he muttered smiling back at her.

“I will see you later, but promise me you will not hurt my family, only then will I forgive you”

“I promise,” she said raising her hand and saluting him.

He smirked and went out of her office, Evelyn, was so happy that Alex came to see her this early. “Hmm, he’s changed,” she said to herself smiling.

Alex drove back and keeps thinking of who could have sent those assassins after him.

That person must have a death wish, he’s not going to hold back this time, he will kill them all.

He will give their dead body to the birds, whoever they are.

Alex halted at the front of the building, he could see some unusual movements, he paused for a moment and then call Jack.

“Alex you need to come right now, there are men here, and I think is a no-good situation”

Alex reached Jack’s office in a blink of an eye, no one saw him walk in. He was just there.

“What’s the problem?”

“These men are here to see you” Jack pointed at one of the men, he was backing them so Alex could not get a clear view of his face.

He strode over to the man with his hands in his pocket, he wanted to grab him and strangle him at once for troubling his morning.

“Who are you, and what is the commotion all about?” the man turned gently to face him, he had a cigarette in his mouth and Alex could see that one of his eyes was covered with a black robe, or should I say one eyeglass.

"Alex Wale, how fast you've grown” the man giggled after saying that.

Alex could feel he was the one who send that assassin after him.

“Who are you?” he asked again.

“Is that how to greet your uncle?” he puffs his cigarette in front of Alex.

“Uncle?” Alex has never heard of any uncle, no one told him he has an uncle.

“Well, I don’t know you, and if you are important my father would have told me about you.” He thought of pulling the man's legs a bit to know if he was saying the truth.

“Hahaha, just like your father, so stubborn!” the man said and takes one step toward Alex.

"I’m your uncle but your father decided to keep me away from his children."

“Maybe he has his reasons,” Alex said

“Yeah, yeah, you are right, the same reason that send him to his early grave, and by the way, did you see where your father was buried?"

Oh… sorry you didn’t get to see it, I guess his body was eaten by birds, hahaha” the man laugh at him and Alex has had enough, his eyes turned red but Zack was right on time to stop him.
