Chapter 79 Speak of the Devil…
The very next day, Alex went to the salon, where he got his hair trimmed. For the sake of this little family reunion of his, he wanted to look his best. And by looking his best, he meant looking like a complete and total douche. Thus, he had the sides of his hair faded, and his quiff trimmed. Only after he approved of the look did he put on a pair of platinum rimmed aviators, and head back to his home. Where he immediately got dressed in the tailor suit that his stepmother had helped pick out for him on their first date.
It was a slim fitted, navy blue three-piece suit with a mild checkered pattern. His tie was made of fine silk, and had a distinctive pattern in navy blue, and a much lighter azure. He also wore a matching pocket square in his jacket’s breast pocket. His shoes and belt were made out of a fine alligator leather, and were dyed black. All of these items were purchased from a designer brand, and cost more than most people made in a year.
Along with this fine tailored suit, Alex wore a platinum and diamond Rolex watch, which had a distinctive meteorite dial. The watch alone was worth roughly a hundred and fifty grand. Since acquiring his fortune, Alex had spent a small portion of it on luxury clothing for special occasions like this. Once he was fully dressed and looking at himself in the mirror, he noticed Min-Ah enter the room and gawk at him.
“Wow.. Oppa, you look so cool! What’s the occasion?”
Alex smirked as he turned around and took off his sunglasses to reveal his perfect sky-blue eyes. Where he then told the girl the truth, despite knowing it might disturb her.
“I’m going to pick up my mother and sisters from the airport, and then take them out to a nice meal. I want them to see how well I am doing for myself without them…”
This stunned Min-Ah, who looked at Alex with a hurt expression on her adorable face. She had a hard time speaking her thoughts out loud, but when she did, there was a very clear presence of pain in her cracking voice.
“I… I thought I was your sister… I thought that we were your family?”
Alex knew from the start that the girl would react this way. Thus, he walked over and hugged her. While stroking her jet black silky hair, he assured her that she was indeed his sister.
“Min-Ah… You are my one and only little sister, and nothing will ever change that. We might not be related by blood, but we are family, now and forever. Besides, you should know that I am not actually related to the woman who raised me and the sisters I grew up with. Which means that you, Noona, and our mother are just as much as my family as the others, if not more so. I might be gone for the entire night, so don’t wait up.”
After saying this, Alex walked out of the door, while pulling out his cell phone, and contacting someone he knew, after all if he was going to be picking up three women, then he needed a bigger car, and there was only one person he knew who had a Rolls Royce that would allow him to borrow it for the evening.
The voice that responded to his call was excited at first, perhaps believing that this was a booty call. But the mature silver haired beauty almost immediately deflated when she heard Alex’s words.
“Hee-Young, I’m stopping by the estate to pick up the Rolls Royce. I need it for the evening. You can have it back after I’m done with it…”
There was clearly some hesitation in Hee-Young’s voice. After all, she was not the kind of women who simply let other people touch her stuff. And thus she was quick to deny what she perceived to be an absurd request.
“Absolutely not! What makes you think you can just barge into my home and take my things?”
Alex’s voice, however, grew cold as he scolded the woman for even thinking about rejecting him.
“I wasn’t asking… You are my woman now, which means everything you own belongs to me. Whether you like it or not, I’m taking the car. So you better have it prepared for me when I arrive, or I will punish you when I return it!”
Knowing exactly what Alex’s “punishment” entailed, Hee-Young immediately froze on the spot, and bowed her head in submission to a Master who was not even present before accepting his demands.
“Alright… I understand… I will have the Rolls Royce ready for you when you arrive. Just please, don’t drive so recklessly with it… It is a one of a kind!”
Alex smirked when he heard this. He was already in his Lamborghini, as he sped through the city’s streets. He hung up on the woman once she had accepted, but not before leaving behind some parting words that sent a child down her spine.
“No promises…”
—
It did not take long before Alex arrived at Hee-Young’s estate. Luckily for him, the woman’s husband and her spoiled brat of a daughter were not present. They had both gone to an important business dinner. Which Hee-Young had specifically blown off to be present with the car when Alex arrived.
Thus, once he parked his car in the driveway of the massive mansion, he stepped out and saw Hee-Young all dolled up. At first Alex thought the woman had gone out of the way to dress up specifically for him, and he was quick to grab hold of her waist, and kiss her open in the driveway.
“You didn’t have to do all of this, just for my sake!”
The woman was shocked that Alex would do something so shameless, and in public no less that she quickly tried to push him away, but found that she was powerless to do so.
“Stop! What if someone sees? Do you have any idea what our relationship will do to my business? If I am caught having an affair with you, my husband will divorce me! Which means his constant investments into my business will dry up! I’ll go bankrupt within a year!”
This, however, did not deter Alex as he began to play with the woman’s plump bottom. He then whispered something in her ears that caused her to become dreadfully wet.
“Then I guess I will just have to bail you out when that happens!”
Such a bold remark caused Hee-Young to look at her young lover with an astonished expression on her pretty face as she voiced her shock aloud.
“You have the finances to do such a thing? At your age?”
Alex, however, let go of the woman, and ceased his assault, where he then wore a smug grin, before revealing that he had just been teasing the woman the whole time.
“Not at all… At least not yet… But give me five years and I’ll be worth more than that bald old fucking lecher you call a husband. Until then, I suppose it is best that we keep our relationship a secret. But if I find out that sleazeball has even brushed your shoulder, I will break his fucking neck!”
After saying this, Alex revealed he had swiped the keys to the Rolls Royce from the woman while he was making out with her before hopping into the car and driving off. Leaving the woman completely bewildered by what the man had just said.
—
Diana and her young twin daughters stepped off the private jet they had charted with Richard’s finances, and gazed upon the Seoul airport with a hint of superiority in their eyes. Due to the fact that they were American, and from the billionaire class, they looked down on the small Asian nation which they considered being a puppet of their home country.
Or at least Diana did. As for Kristina and Madison, they were actually far more excited to visit such an exotic and wealthy nation. They had only ever been to Europe while on vacation, and thus visiting the far east was like a dream come true. However, what they were most excited about was that they were finally going to see their brother after what felt like a lifetime of being apart.
The trio of women quickly found their way to the rental car section of the Airport, where they were looking for a luxurious vehicle to lease. However, while they were waiting in line, Madison grew incredibly impatient as she began to question how much longer it would be before she could see her beloved little brother.
“Mom! How much longer until we can see Alex? It has been years, and now that we are so close, I can’t wait any longer! I need my little brother!”
Just when Diana was going to scold her daughter for being so impatient and making a scene in public, a familiar voice erupted from nearby. Where a handsome Caucasian man revealed himself.
“Speak of the devil and he shall appear…”
The three women quickly looked over to find that Alex was standing in front of them. Though they did not even recognize him. The last time they had seen the man, he was just an adolescent boy. But he had grown so tall, and so handsome, that they thought perhaps they were dreaming.
But it was not his appearance that stunned the women the most, but rather the attire which he was wearing. His entire outfit was worth as much as a small house in the United States. This was simply not possible. After all, John was a salaryman, a standard corporate wage slave. There was no way he could afford such luxurious clothing and accessories.
As for Alex, as far as Hee-Young was aware, he worked as a private security guard. But there was no record of his income. After all, he was being paid under the table by Hee-Young, and the record label which hired him to protect Mimi. The only form of actual income that her private investigator had found after looking into Alex was that he had a single professional MMA fight where he made the equivalent of a few hundred US dollars.
Of course, what was perhaps the most astonishing thing about Alex was the fact that his hand was bandaged in gauze. Thus, everything else that was strange about Alex immediately flew out the window as the three women approached him, with visible concern in their eyes.
“Alex! Oh my God, what happened to your hand?”
“Are you alright little brother? Who did this to you?”
“My son, how did this happen?”
Alex simply chuckled as he took off his sunglasses with his good hand and assured the three women that he was alright.
“I’m fine… It’s just a work related injury, nothing too serious. The doctor says I’ll make a full recovery in a few months. So? It’s been five years… Is there nothing you want to say to me?”
Diana looked particularly guilty as Alex said this, so much so that he could not even look the young man in the eyes. After all, she was too ashamed. But what was perhaps the thing that made her feel the worst about herself was that the moment Alex revealed himself, she could not keep her eyes off of him. Her baby boy, the one she raised into adolescence, had grown into such a handsome and wealthy young man without her being around to witness it. It made her incredibly frustrated with herself, but there was something else mixed in. A deep sense of longing, and attraction. Something she did not even realize that she herself was feeling. Upon seeing that Diana did not say a word to him, Alex sighed and shook his head. He thought that after everything that had happened between them, she would at least be able to apologize. He was just about to step forward and demand such a thing from her when he felt his two older sisters glomp him.
After the two young women realized their beloved little brother was alright, they tackled him in the middle of the airport, and hugged Alex so hard that he actually felt his rib’s squeeze. The two girls were bawling like a couple of little girls, as they wiped their tears on their beloved big brother’s expensive suit jacket without even realizing that they were staining it.
“Alex! I never thought I would ever see you again. This is a dream come true, and you’re so handsome!”
“Little brother, do you remember the promise you made to me when we were kids? Now that we’re both adults, you can finally fulfill it!”
Kristina had completely forgotten about the argument she had with her sister just the day before, but the moment Madison brought it up, she immediately began to fight with the girl over Alex.
“Screw you bitch! He promised me first! If anyone is going to-“
Before Kristina could even finish these words, she and her sister were pulled off of Alex by their mother, who scolded them as if they were two out-of-control children.
“Have you both lost your minds? We are in public! Do not bring shame upon our family any more than you already have! This is a conversation best left for another time!”
Alex was happy that his mother had interfered, because if he was being completely honest with himself, he had no memory of what promise these girls were referring to. And if he did not navigate such a conversation properly, he might just accidentally step on a land mind.
Thus, he dusted himself and stood up, before offering to take the three women to dinner.
“I don’t know if you girls have already made reservations for a place to stay, but you can cancel them now. I have more than enough room at my penthouse to house the three of you for the duration of your time here in Seoul. Now, how about the four of us go get something nice to eat? It’s been many years since I last saw the three of you, and there is so much we need to discuss…”
Diana was surprised that Alex would be willing to show her and her daughters such courtesy, especially after everything she put him through, and was quick to reject this offer.
“No Alex, we couldn’t… It would be-“
However, before the woman could finish this request, Alex placed his index finger upon the woman’s juicy lips, and stopped her with a confident look on his handsome face.
“I am afraid I am going to have to insist…. Come along, girls, we have a long night ahead of us!”
After saying this, Alex picked up his mother’s luggage with his one good hand, while his sisters carried their own out to the parking lot where the Rolls Royce was waiting for them. Diana did not know what games Alex was trying to play, but she had to remind herself that he was not the kind and gentle little boy she had raised.
Alex had grown into a lecherous playboy and a wild child. One who had no qualms about getting into trouble with the law. Because of this, Diana planned to be on her guard around her own son. As for her daughters, they had no idea about any of this, and were fawning over the young man as if he were a pet rabbit. One thing was certain: it would certainly be a night to remember.
