MARRIED TO MY BLUE EYE BILLIONAIRE

CHAPTERTWO

Alexander's POV

‘‘Good morning Mr stone”, Rose my secretary greeted me by stepping into my office, nodding I continued typing on my laptop.

'’Sir you have a meeting with Mrs Luca by 9am after that you have a lunch date with the other investors”, Rose said, going over my schedule for the day to me.

“You can go Rose. I will let you know once I need you”. I said dismissing her, she heaved a sigh of relief on his way out and her trembling form relaxed.

"Why does your secretary look like she is going to pass out Alex, Matthew asked while entering into my office, looking up at him I also noticed Max behind him”, ‘’leave the poor lady alone Buddy,” Max also butted in.

Matthew and Max have been my closest friends since college days, Max is your typical definition of play boy and life of the party, with his brown eyes and curly brown hair, girls practically throw themselves at him.

Matthew is the mother hen of our trio always looking out for us, he is the most introverted one and he loves anything tech.

These two duffers are my biggest rock and only family after my mum, but they are also assholes who love making my life a living hell. Today has to be one of those days when I can't deal with them.

“Dude we are so hungry, Max suddenly said after making himself comfortable on my office chair,”

‘‘Good morning to you too, I finally said after ignoring them for a while, and get yourself food I don't have time for babies”, I replied back.

‘‘Matt did you hear this ungrateful prick, we left our precious bed to keep him company and he can't even be nice for a second, I don't have time for your childishness Max I'm so busy and stressed out already”.

“Alex, your secretary said you haven't stepped out of this office since yesterday, how about we go out for breakfast and then we free you to come continue your work”, Matthew finally said.

“I have a meeting by 9 once I'm done I can spare a few hours for you fuckers, for now don't destroy my office”, i warned cause they are always bickering, with that I moved out of my office for my meeting.

One hour of endless talks and a raging headache, I was finally done with my meeting. After moving out of the conference my workers were scrambling back to their duties. I pay these people to work not to gossip and gallivant around all day.

Matthew was on the phone when I entered while Max was flirting with one of my employees who came to drop a file, “Good morning Mr stone”, she said trembling, “Get the f**k out of my office”, I shouted irritated at her clumsiness, she was on the verge of crying at this point but I don't have time for incompetent workers.

“Dude stop scaring the poor lady” Max exclaimed, “stop flirting with my employee you motherfucker”, I fired back.

The stupid duffer was just laughing, we then decided to head out to the bakery they suggested for breakfast, according to Max they make the best coffee.

After driving for 30 mins, we finally got to the bakery that Max recommended. I don't like such places. It looks like a street food shop, but I love my friends too much to say no to them. I would rather go to a five star restaurant.

Entering into the bakery, the bell chimed indicating our entry. After settling down at a table I noticed how cozy and homely the bakery smells.

Glancing around I noticed ladies in the bakery glancing our way and ripping us out with their eyes. Being used to the attention already I wasn't bothered again.

I'm very sure they recognised me from the way they were staring.

‘’Is that not Alexander stone the owner of stone industries and most eligible bachelor of New York’’ some girls whispered irritatingly, making me scoff internally for their stupidity.

Max on the other hand was rambling about stupid stuff I can't make sense of, I turned him out focusing on replying to mails on my phone when I heard my name being called by Max asking me what I would like to get.

‘“Just black coffee I replied”, without looking up at the waitress, Max seemed to be flirting with her.

“Dude the waitress is f*****g hot,” max finally exclaimed after she left, raising my head up to look at her retreating figure I must say she has nice shape with long blonde hair but I couldn't see her face.

A different waitress with black hair was the one who came to give our orders, and I must say they really do make the best coffee like Max said.

After settling the bills we made our way out of the bakery , Max and Matthew took their car because I had a lunch meeting with some investors for a project then to my house where I'm very sure my mum will be waiting cause she's back in town from her vacation.

……………….

I got home so late and was praying my mum was asleep cause I was exhausted and couldn't hold a conversation with her in this state.

My housekeeper Richard took my suitcase and files to my room letting me know my mom was waiting in the living room, I made my way toward hers mentally preparing myself for a lecture

"Good evening mama, I greeted going in for a hug, why are you still up by this time?”

“Don't mama me young man, you don't even care about your health, you don't care about your old woman. Richard said you haven't been home since yesterday. I'm very sure you slept in your office again, she said with a frown etched on her face”.

“Let's move to the dining room I made you dinner, you don't have time to take care of yourself and you want to run a company, you need a companion baby, what if I am not around to cook for you, you need a wife”, she finally said getting to the main reason why she was here.

“I don't need a wife, mama I can take care of myself, of course you can,” she replied sarcastically.

“You need to move on from her baby, I'm so worried about you, " she said with tears running down her face”.

I really don't like anyone bringing up my relationship with Amelia, I have moved on from her or so I tell myself, work is my only coping mechanism to forget her.

“I'm over her mama I replied tiredly, prove me right by settling down Alex”, she replied angrily finally standing up and leaving the dining room.

“Mama”, I tried calling after her but she wasn't replying, sighing and leaning into my seat, my appetite was far gone by now.

If there was one thing in the world I hate myself for it has to be making my mom angry or sad.

Finally standing up and picking my blazer with the thought of how to get a wife to please my mother in mind, I made my way to my room to bathe and continue my work.
