"You won't get hit again Fair, I will make sure of that" his words were like melodies that soothed her heart and she smiled at him.
Alec kept his focus back to the road, he had drove off to catch a break from all the nagging and pressure at home.
Hearing about why he needs to get married before the next two months everyday has tired him out.
He was still twenty seven and wasn't ready to shoulder the responsibility of a family now.
No day passes without his parents reminding him that he wouldn't be able to keep the position of the CEO of Quin Corp if he didn't get himself a wife.
Early this morning his father had disrupted his sleep to tell him of a blind date he arranged for him
With a girl he has no intention of getting involved with, it was a blind date but he could already guess who the girl would be.
He had just replied his father with a simple 'Yes I know' only to freshen up and got to his car, driving straight to his private house in the outskirts of the city.
He has no intention to be back for at least, two weeks.
He wasn't going to care about the company or anything else for now and have peace because he had lived all his life with one purpose in mind - taking over Quin Corp, for as long as he could remember.
From a young age he already had a huge responsibility weighing on his shoulders as the only son, though he has an older female sibling- Erica.
But right now? If the company was going to fall into the hands of his cousin brother Alex within the span of two weeks he will be absent.
Then so be it! To hell with everyone!!
Or he might actually collapse due to stress and constant reminders that he couldn't afford to make a single mistake.
He always had to be perfect at all damn times, act good, look good, achieve great results to put up with the standards of those old hypocritical directors that can't wait to see him fail.
Alec hated the fact that he has to see their gullible faces everyday at work.
It was same routine all day, endless meetings, abrupt emergencies, constant power struggle and getting cold stares from competitors every now and then.
This morning he had promised to go on the date and had even booked a nice restaurant.
They would be in for a really big surprise because he wasn't going to show up
He actually told his assistant Dave, to go on his behalf if he wishes to before he left.
Alec was on full speed with a headset on, vibing to cool melodies as it was an empty road and there was no need to take much caution when he sighted what he didn't want to believe was actually a human being from a distance.
Who on earth would stand Infront of a speeding car like that and not waver?!
He wasn't even expecting to see anyone along the way as the place was very deserted, only someone like him could think of going that far to own a house
The guts of the person tempted him to accelerate more and to his surprise she still stood there, he had actually thought to scare her out of the way but she remained and he had slammed the breaks just in time before he could run over her.
