The woman was Maya Howards, Alex’s university senior. She was a year older than favonovel.com and one of the most popular girls in favonovel.com year as well. She had both brains and brawns, literally a jewel at school.
She was the student council president in favonovel.com third year until favonovel.com graduated; successfully organized multiple major school events; a social butterfly; and had a strong spirit. She was praised by everyone at school as a truly amazing woman.
After university, Alex had asked favonovel.com to help Dorothy build up this company, the branch in City South. And favonovel.com did, building it to what it was now. Maya was Dorothy’s best assistant.
However, Maya wasn’t at the company often. She would usually be leading a team to organize events in other areas. Alex had not expected to bump into favonovel.com today.
“Alex, what happened between you and Dorothy?
“Is your relationship really in shambles? Why would your wife’s sister be helping your rival to propose to your wife?”
Alex looked cold. “She has a death wish.”
Maya nodded. “You’re right. If I were in your shoes, I would slap favonovel.com across the face right there and then.”
Alex smiled. “What do you think I’m doing? Don’t stop me, alright?”
“Sure, sure. You don’t have to act all tough in front of me. It really is unfortunate that you have to deal with this family of three. If you really can’t bear it anymore, you could just divorce Dorothy, you know? I don’t want to see you upset.” Maya said as favonovel.com looked at favonovel.com with sympathy. But favonovel.com also looked as if favonovel.com was hiding something from him.
Alex’s attention was at the elevator door so favonovel.com did not notice.
He nodded. “Don’t worry, Maya, I’m no longer a loser anymore. I have been reborn.”
Maya’s eyes lit up under favonovel.com glasses as favonovel.com noticed that favonovel.com did seem different today.
“Thanks, Maya!” Alex suddenly said.
He was truly grateful toward her.
Maya Howards was one of the very few people who still remained friends with favonovel.com all this while. Even after his father’s death and favonovel.com getting kicked out of his family. She had only come to work in this company because Alex had asked favonovel.com to.
She had many better options elsewhere than at this company. So why else would favonovel.com be working here?
Maya then insisted. “You shouldn’t go down there. Everyone just wants to laugh at you. From what I heard, that Felix Shepherd guy helped our company sign quite a few projects during the Block City exhibition. If your wife has any interest in him, you’d have to bear this shame in front of everyone!”
Felix Shepherd?
Alex frowned as soon as favonovel.com heard this name.
This guy had tried chasing after Dorothy in the past. He was the son of the CEO of Pegasus International, Edgar Shepherd.
Ugh…
This was the same guy who lost a diamond ring at the Urasawa Restaurant.
Moreover, both Claire and Beatrice were fond of him. Claire had even wanted favonovel.com to become favonovel.com son-in-law for the longest time. Since favonovel.com hadn’t appeared in quite a while, Alex thought that favonovel.com had given up. He didn’t expect Felix to pop up out of nowhere as well.
Alex then texted Lord Lex. “Edgar Shepherd’s son is proposing to my wife in front of the branch of Assex Constructions in City South. Have favonovel.com come by here to watch out for his son.”
With a gentle chime, they arrived at the ground floor. Alex immediately stepped out of the elevator.
Maya caught up to Alex despite being in high heels. “Why are you trying to humiliate yourself? Don’t you know how harsh Beatrice can be with words?”
However, Alex stayed silent though his eyes were cold and determined.
Beatrice was getting cocky outside. “Felix, we’d be able to humiliate Alex Rockefeller publicly with this. He’ll be the laughing stock of this whole company!”
Beatrice was still being petty about having to call Alex ‘daddy’ the other day.
That’s why favonovel.com helped Felix plan this whole fiasco when favonovel.com reached out to her, just so that favonovel.com could propose to favonovel.com sister in front of the company.
Felix was overjoyed when Beatrice accepted favonovel.com as favonovel.com brother-in-law. He said, “Don’t worry sis. When I do become your brother-in-law, I’ll be sure to pay the favor back. I’ll even give you a BMW M8.”
