Chapter 50 Alice's new plan
Chapter 50 Alice's new plan
Xander sat deepin thoughts in his office, tomorrow was the dinner between his family and the
Garcia's, and he couldn't lie, anytime he thought about the mere thought, he felt sick in his stomach
and a dark cloud of dread over his head, He could clear hear his Dad's voice in his head and he could
remember the day he was told he would be engaged.
"Dad...you called me?" Xander said, as he stood at the entrance of his Father's study, the doors
were made of huge dark mahogany wood with some ancient carvings on it, the whole house itself was
two century years old owned by his great great great great grandpa Miller, he built the house of smart
taxes and IFF rates then according to his grandfather, the house was passed down the line from son to
son, even though they still had several mansions in several cities and countries, this was the most
visited one. He didn't bond well with his father while growing up due to his father always running the
business and sometimes his mother would tag along leaving him and his brother to the whole mansion
and fifteen maids to take care of them.
"Alexander came sit, would' ya," His father said in a heavy accent he was pretty happy he didn't
take after because it sounded ridiculous to him and would have probably been in a fits of laughter if it
wasn't his father that was talking.
"Yes sir," Xander answered, walking up to the huge mahogany table filled with documents and an
old desktop his father never changed, he knew his father was stone hearted and old schooled, ifhe
messed up, he would probably throw him out at 21.
"Did you like the fundraiser occasion I took you and your brother to?," Mr Miller asked, dropping
his read glasses to face Xander, he was spotting a properly laid back her that had many streak of white
with a trimmed beard, his father still looked fit for someone in his late fifties.
"Yes sir, I learnt alot from meeting with other young business heirs of my age and we share ideas
and opinions about the present market and how to champion it," Xander said, exactly what his father
wanted to hear, but there was still a look of unease in his demeanor.
"But of course, I didn't share my A plan father, I'm not stupid, just contributed the basics," Xander
added. A look of relief slowly replaced the unease in his father's face as he rested his back a little
which made Xander sigh internally.
Even though he was lying, he didn't exactly meet with heirs or heiresses, or at least he was talking
to young business person Alice Harvey, Mr White Harvey's daughter and close friends of Araceli,
Garcia's daughter. And by sharing business ideas he meant sticking his tongue far down her throat
after having about five glasses of champagne.
"Any girl caught your eye at the occasion?," Mr Miller asked with a straight face staring directly into
his soul which made his start sweating in place he didn't think were possible including the crack of his
butt cheek making his rub his ass side to side on the leather seat causing disturbing squeaking sounds
making his father get slightly irritated.
"Will ya stop that boy and answer the goddamn question!!" Mr Miller said, staring at him looking
partially irritated because of the sound he was making.
"Ehm...Yes...No!!"
"No, I mean No sir" Xander stumbled over his words and from the look on his father's face, he was
starting to get real pissed off at him for not being bold and precise, he was slowly losing his patience
with him.
"Okay…" Mr Miller took a deep breath before asking another question.
"Did you notice the daughter of the Garcia's?," The question only started making dread creep into
him slowly, he had always known since he was little that he would have the luxury of choosing who he
wanted to be his partner. In his family, it has and will always be business and power first.From NôvelDrama.Org.
"Yes sir, she looked very stunning in her dinner dress," Xander lied.
"Dinner dress??," Mr Miller asked, squinting his eyes at him, making Xander very nervous, and he
started rethinking everything he had said earlier "or was he caught Alice and now his father is trying to
test him," Xander thought.
"I don't know what exactly she wore but I sure as hell know that it wasn't a dinner dress," Mr Miller
said.
"Oh yeah, I think so," Xander said, quickly.
"So I'm guessing you didn't talk to her," Mr Miller said, putting his fingers on his bridge trying to
relieve the stress.
"No sir," Xander replied.
"Just exchanged pleasantries and what a view, nothing major Father," Xander stated carefully
trying to stumble on his words again. But he could see disappointment written clear as day on his
father's face which meant this was one of those situations where he was supposed to automatically
know what his father wanted and act accordingly. Ever since he was five, he got to understand the
egocentric, self centered man who was his father, he never really played with them when they were
little, and the moment Xander knew who to read, write and reason, business was introduced to him not
love, maybe that's why he settled for Alice, even with his messed up mind, she still agreed to have sex
and make out with him.
"Ya know, girls like Araceli are girls you should go after, sad the Azariah's are fine raising a lesbian
and a gay child, they would have been the perfect target," Mr Miller said, itching his stubbles before
reaching for his drawer and taking a half smoked cigar and lit it up, taking a deep inhale and them a
relieving exhale.
"Target??" Xander questioned, confused, what did his father mean by target… "Ya target ya slow
mu…" Mr Miller said coughly slightly before continuing.
"Mump is what you meant to say right," Xander muttered bitterly more to himself than to his father
but forgets his father had sharp ears.
"Ya dummy, shit I'm gettin too old for all this crap pile of shit," Mr Miller said, heading to the window
to take a deep breath.
"You are going to get engaged to Araceli Garcia, we are going to make a joint wealth scheme, and
become the most powerful family in the business world, the Azariahs wouldn't even come close." Mr
Miller said, while staring into the vast field of flowers smiling to himself.
"But I…" Xander stood up, trying to object, he didn't want his life dictated for him.
"No buts son, you either marry her or lose your position as heir and next CEO to your brother,"
"Now leave" Mr Miller said, with an authoritative tone.
"Babe??"
"Babe!!!!" Alice shouted, shaking him vigorously dragging him out of the deep thought he was in,
his eyes still didn't come to focus just yet, he rubbed his eyes on his face taking a deep breath before
facing her.
"How did you get in?," Xander asked, looking at her with a confused expression.
"Seriously??"
"Are you for real, I come to your office to find you deep in thoughts that are bringing you pain and
the first thing you ask me is "how did i get in"...."
"Well shit Xander, I flew off a fucking space jet and landed right through your fucking windows,"
Alice replied, more bitterness than sarcasm.
"I'm sorry, just a little shaken up," Xander said, standing up to give her a kiss but she wasn't having
any of it.
"I'm sorry babe but I'm really stressed, the dinner is tomorrow, I could lose my life, my father could
finally call the waste he had always wanted to call me and I swear my younger brother will fucking love
that," Xander said, laughing bitterly as he went back to his desk to drink his already cold coffee but not
that he cared any fucking bit.
Alice walked towards Xander and wrapped her hands around his waist and kissed his neck gently
while snaking her hands towards his crotch, feeling him getting hard as she continued to stroke him
through his clothes.
Turning around their lips met with fierceness and need, Xander didn't hesitate to insert his tongue
in her mouth tasting a bit of her lipstick, he groping her butts through her dress, he grabbed her and put
her on his desk raising her gown up exposing her tanned thighs, he slowed inched towards her coochie
but she stopped him.
"Now calm down tiger, we all need this but we need to find a plan that will help us get away from
this dinner," Alice said.
"Can't you say it after we are done??" Xander whined, kissing her neck.
"Nooo listen, you are releasing a new product right?" Alice asked.
"Yeah…"
"Why don't we throw emergency fundraiser event, that way, your mother will definitely cancel the
dinner plan, you know she has a thing for planning this events,"
"You are a genius babe…"
