Love Unspoken

Walter propped himself up, sitting erect as he fixed his gaze on Alexander. "No, you're interested," he declared. Alexander's eyes narrowed, the gears in his mind visibly turning. "Oh?" he responded, his voice laced with curiosity.

"Do you know who owns the company TOPSUN?" Walter continued, his voice steady and calm.

Alexander's eyes bore into him, pondering for a moment before replying, "It's Langley Quill's."

A hint of a smile played on Walter's lips. "As expected, smart."

"He must have entered the Lang Corporation by now, right? Then you might also guess what he's up to," Walter added, his gaze never leaving Alexander's face. He noticed Alexander's silence and probed further, "So, you're interested now, huh?"C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

A sardonic smile played at the corners of Alexander's mouth. "What's the matter, planning on a dog-eat-dog showdown with him?"

Walter burst into laughter at the comment. "Oh, Alex, the dog-eat-dog fight is among you guys, not me. I just love watching your family tear each other apart. So really, it doesn't make a difference to me whose side I'm on-you should know that."

It was a harsh truth, but true nonetheless.

Luke was Wayne's illegitimate son. Though Wayne never acknowledged it, it was obvious to anyone with eyes.

Ambitious to the core, just like Alexander, Luke had decided to employ a risky strategy after his previous plans failed. He aimed to walk straight into the family business and challenge Alexander head-on. Wasn't this the very definition of dog-eat-dog?

Wayne had been generous to this son, splitting off an international division solely for him. But Luke wasn't satisfied; he was greedy for more.

He wanted everything that was Alexander's.

As for what Alexander was plotting, probably only he knew.

Walter whispered, "How about we take over TopSun as well?"

Before Alexander could respond, Walter added, "Don't play the 'I don't need you' card, Alex. He's holding twenty-seven percent of Wayne's shares, not much less than you, plus he's got TopSun backing him." "With your intelligence, you must be able to foresee what you're up against, right?"

Eyes narrowing, Alexander held Walter's gaze, neither man willing to back down.

In the dim light of the courtyard, their faces were cast in shadow, the chilly air carrying the tension between them.

Suddenly, Alexander turned on his heel and strode away.

"Xavier, make sure Walter receives a proper welcome," he called without looking back.

Startled, Xavier responded, "Yes, sir!"

Walter couldn't help but laugh bitterly. Working with someone like this was masochistic.

Once Alexander had left, Xavier stepped on Walter's wound. "I apologize, Walter!"

Pain shot through Walter, causing a cold sweat to break out on his forehead, but he bit back any cry of anguish.

He glared at Xavier through gritted teeth. "I'm allied with your boss Alexander just this once. Don't push your luck!"

Xavier paused, taking in Walter's stern look, and retracted his foot with an awkward expression.

He was just a keeper, and once these sharks went after each other, they could spell the end for someone like him. People who could hold their own against Alexander were no simpletons-Xavier knew he was out of his league. "Let me find another way to entertain you," Xavier muttered, picking up a dog from the side-the very one that had served as Walter's cushion earlier and dragged the animal out with him.

That night, Alexander hadn't returned home.

Early the next morning, Quinn headed back to the office.

She couldn't afford to lose her job, not with Alexander unemployed. Otherwise, they might as well be begging on the streets together.

After arriving at work, Ruby approached her immediately.

"Quinn, could you take a look at this? If everything seems alright, just sign at the bottom," she said, handing over a document.

Quinn briefly scanned it. Emboldened across the top were the words - Notice of Personnel Reassignment.

She looked at Ruby, puzzled.

"Don't worry, you're not being fired. We're just transferring you to a new position. Upper management decided. You'll be working upstairs in the executive suite as a secretary." Quinn was taken aback. The executive suite?

That was Wayne's territory-was she to become his secretary?

"Come on, don't just stand there. Sign it and move your stuff up," Ruby urged her.
