Chapter 87
“Hello, what have we got?” I asked with curiosity rising in me.
“I will forward everything that I was able to gather so far,” he answered.
“Okay,” I hung up and hardened my grip on the phone as though venting my anger.

Andrew’s eyes locked in mine, silence ruled the atmosphere until the beep sound of my phone’s notifications dethroned the silence.
I opened the message box icon and scrolled through the pictures, I stopped halfway with scrolling and passed the phone to Andrew.
He scrolled through the photos with so much unbelief in his countenance.
What?! Andrew exclaimed.
“What does she stand to gain in doing all this? His voice was laced with confusion as he asked.
“There’s a video too,” he announced.
“I hope this will be enough to get her back out,”
“With this, I’m sure this fight has come to an end,” Andrew said, his tone filled with assurance.
“What is the next move? I don’t want to pant Alex black in the face of the society so I will like to not take this to the social media, I will like this to just be between us and her,”
“That’s a good one bro, but do you think Alex will agree to quietly settle this?”
“After seeing what we have about her, I’m sure she will, plus she wouldn’t want this to go public,”
“I hope it works,”
“I’m optimistic that it will work,” I said with so much boldness, while I fixed myself on the couch closer to me.
“Here, drink, it will help calm your nerves,” Trevor handed me a bottle of water.
I gulped half of the water down my throat, “I guess with this I need an audience with Alexis, as soon as possible,” I said.
“Yea, that was what I was about saying, so I guess you should call her now and schedule a meeting with her for tomorrow morning, we don’t have time to waste, with every second that passes you chances to getting married to Alexis becomes stronger,”
“Yes, you’re right bro, let me call her right away,”
Immediately I put a call through to her and with no hesitation, she picked up and we got connected.
“Hello husband,” I could sense ease in her voice as she spoke.
“Hey, hi Alexis,”
“Is that how you choose to address your soon to be wife, by her first name?”
“We need to talk,”
“We are talking,” she said, her tone stirring up my sleeping fury.
“I’m serious, we need to talk, you see that sham wedding you and my mother are planning, it’s not going to happen,” I said angrily.

She chuckled, “there’s nothing you can do to stop that, after all the wedding is in few days,”
“So Hunter, just accept defeat and make me your wife, though,”
“What do you plan on doing with Daniel if you eventually marry me, make him an assistant husband?” I breaked the news to her, with hope that it would calm her pride.
And luckily it did, silence crept across from her end.
“Huh… Are you there?”
“Who…who is Daniel? And wh…what are you talking about?” she stammered.
“Are you telling me that you don’t know what I’m talking about?”
“Of course I don’t,”
“Hold on for a sec,” I took the phone off my ear and sent her a photo.
“Check your phone I just sent you something, and for your information there’s more from where that comes from,” I let out
a soft calculative smile, I know by now, she would get a seat if she was standing early.
I looked at Andrew who was just nodding his head, pleased with what was happening.
Her silence took longer than I expected, “Alex, are you there?”
had the sound of her sighing.
“So we should meet and talk if you don’t want this to go wide,”
“I will let you think, let me know when you’re ready to talk,” I said authoritatively and hung the call.
