Chapter 11_ complement from Mr Alex

Chapter 11
Alex knocked himself straight on his bed after gulping down more glass of liquor, with a cigarette in his hand he grabbed his pillow and rested on it, huffing and puffing the smokes.
**Least let me hold your hands** a smirk appeared at the left side of his lips making him sigh seconds later. The thoughts of her seems to just make him forget the problems at hand, and when he recollected her childish moment,he couldn't help but chuckle countless times without even noticing it.
" Did she really lose everything?" Alex questioned himself knowing no one else was in the room. The question suddenly jerked in his mind and a clueless Alex grabbed his phone and dialled a number.
" I shouldn't have a reason to call you right now, but I need you to help find someone urgently". Alex uttered using his red band to gather the fallen parts of his hair which prevented him from seeing properly together. When he dropped the call, he closed his eyes, awaiting to hear the buzzing sound of his phone.

Completely lost staring at the vase of flower right in front of her, Alyssa got distracted immediately by the minor screech the door made when it was being knocked on.
At first, Alyssa waited a few seconds in order to hear the sound again, but when her door bell rang instead, she immediately stood up and began walking towards the door. She turned the door knob and peeped her head out just a little.
" Good day miss Hayley"The tall man wearing a black and white tuxedo uttered making Alyssa wonder why such a person would come visit her. She nodded her head looking at the man without plans to utter a single word and when he noticed it, her urgently took a few steps backwards before speaking up again.
" Mr Alex would like to see you "
Hearing such word, Alyssa almost felt like her heart would fall off her chest and immediately drop right into her stomach. " Mr... Mr Alex?"She shockingly questioned him trying not to sound weird or desperate.
" Hmmmm" Alyssa cleared her throat " give me a minute, I'll go get ready" And walked back inside jamming the door behind as he legs felt wobbly. She rested her back behind the door and traced her hands to her chest in order to feel the rate at which her heart made it's beats.
** I don't deal or go out with girls who aren't pretty** his words sunk deep into her heart like it did before and it made Alyssa clenched her fist so hard. " Oh you wait and see " Alyssa murmured and opened her wardrobe going through every single outfit she had there. Tired of checking them out, she instantly spotted a red outfit which she thought would look perfect, and for a second she tried imagining the look on his face when she would appear right in front of him looking extremely pretty.
Such a dress wasn't her style, and Alyssa did confess to that as she watched herself while standing right in front of a mirror. She shivered a little feeling frightened looking at herself. Minutes ago, Alyssa had concluded that she was actually going nuts trying to make him see the pretty side of her because wearing a dress which brought out the huge shape of her curves well and had a large opening at the back, side and a smaller one at her cleavage side wasn't something Alyssa would do, most especially to impress a guy. But here she was, trying so hard to get pretty for one.
Taking out a red band, Alyssa arranged her hair and styled it in a ponytail. Even as a young lady Alyssa hated makeups so much that most times she reluctantly got any for herself. Alyssa could recall the only reason she had to put makeup was the day she was being made the CEO of her father's company.
Alyssa grabbed only a lipstick and immediately applied that. She smiled taking a good look at herself,but remembering she left someone waiting, she grabbed her bag and hurriedly walked towards the door taking a deep breath before unlocking it.
The gaze in his eyes was enough to tell her that her looks was now completely different, at least even she could feel it.
" Shall we?" Alyssa said finally breaking the silence which lasted for just a minute or more and when the man came back to his senses, he turned around and began taking his steps.
When Alyssa got out of the house and laid her eyes on the car he had sent to pick her up, she immediately giggled with a thought that he really wanted her this time, or maybe changed his mind already.
The chauffeur immediately opened the door scrutinizing her presence for a moment, Alyssa felt like turning around and wiping off the red lipstick she had applied on her lips, or rather pull off the weird cloth on her body.
" Don't you fucking do that do me else I won't take it likely you". Alex yelled with his fist closed tightly on the extremely beautiful decorated table. His eyes were burning red and his jaw hitting each other in anger.
" You fucking bastard.. you dare mess with my money and my goods, don't you dare blame me what's gonna hit you next". And ended the call immediately. Turning his head towards the left his eyes met with that of Alyssa. Alex could only marvel where such a lady came from, as his head could only process the Alyssa he had met before to the Alyssa who just walked through that entrance.
Alyssa's legs became so fragile immediately her eyes met with his as both remained silent looking at each other. "Hi " She uttered in between her fear and shyness which was apparently so evident.
" Take her home, " Alex finally mumbled after taking a sip from the wine right in front of him. Alyssa's eyes widened in awe as she stared at him."Home? " she whispered" Didn't you book such a place for us?".
Alex lifted his head to look at her as he wasn't willing to acknowledge the truth. " Why?" Was the only word he could mutter.
Alyssa gave him a querying look striding her head to the left." Why? What do you mean by that?"Alyssa queried again, but when Alex look toward the direction of his watchdogs, two stepped forward.
" I didn't prepare all these for you, but for someone else....kindly follow them". There wasn't any trace of enthusiasm or softness in his eyes when he said this making Alyssa so pissed off.
" you know what?" Alyssa shrieked " I get you don't care about anybody, or you find it hard being so soft with people, but you also shouldn't increase people's hopes either, primarily ladies". Already at the verge of tears, trying hard not to believe she had gone through all the difficulty of making herself look good enough to at least receive an acknowledgment. She turned around to leave after making up her mind never to make herself this desperate for anyone but halted immediately she heard his voice.
" And by the way, you look gorgeous" Alex confessed taking his gaze away from her, and pretending like he wasn't aware of his speech while gulping the entire content in the glass with a grin plastered at the left side of his lips.
