"Well too bad, you already agreed," Alicia said smirking. "No Alice please, I didn"t agree to anything. You tricked me you trickster" Keaton said exasperatedly. Alicia laughed at this."This is what you get for not listening," Alicia said as she took out a thick stack of doc.u.ments from her desk and placed them in front of Keaton. Once she was done she placed a crystal ballpoint pen on the doc.u.ments.
Alicia had no idea that her actions had already been circulated in the whole company. Through the company forum and by words of mouth. What no one noticed when all these were happening was Prince who had been looking at everything Alicia had done.
Prince frowned, turning to his a.s.sistant he commanded her "Find out who he is, you have less than 30 minutes" his a.s.sistant really felt she was being treated unjustly but did not dare voice out her opinion.
In not more than 30 minutes his a.s.sistant was already back with a laptop. Turning it on, she opened the company forum and placed the laptop in front of Prince. The most popular search was "National superstar, Keaton Mooney and CEO Alicia Crystals"
As he scrolled down the forum the temperature in his office dropped drastically. The thread on the forum got more and more intimate and he was feeling uncomfortable with it as it got deeper.
Gritting his teeth in anger, he stared menacingly at his a.s.sistant before scowling at the post. He made sure he deleted everything and once he was done he just barked orders at his a.s.sistant. "Get the CEO, here"

The a.s.sistant was clearly shocked "What?" she asked after getting over her shock. That was probably a grave mistake on her part because she earned a glare from Prince.
"GET. ME. THE. CEO." Prince enunciated every word he said. The a.s.sistant checked her time and was not sure of what to do so she stood still. "WHAT?" Prince snapped.
"Sir, it is already past closing hours the CEO would have gone home by now," His a.s.sistant said carefully. "What do you mean by that?" Prince asked not getting the meaning behind her words.
"Sir, the time is a quarter past 5 now and the CEO has already left the company," the a.s.sistant said in a small tone. It was only then Prince checked the time, he was the one who had changed the closing hours immediately after he became the chairman.
"Fine you can leave" he finally said to his a.s.sistant. After she left he stood up from his swivel chair and walked to the floor to ceiling window in his office. Prince thought about the matter for a while and then placed a call to his sister.
Aurora picked up after three rings "Keaton Mooney" Prince said when he was sure his sister had picked up. Aurora frowned hearing this. "You know a normal brother would have started with how are you?" Aurora said angrily
"Well, I am not a normal brother now or am I?" Prince said sarcastically. Aurora scoffed on the other end of the phone. "How about you take your questions somewhere else then, brother" Aurora answered in the same sarcastic tone
"Fine, I am sorry my dear sister. You know you are the best in the field" Prince resorted to flattery and it worked on her because in no time she had already burst out laughing.
"That is still not enough, you need to pay for my services. I am quite expensive you know?" Aurora said eagerly. "Family discounts don"t apply?" Prince asked raising an eyebrow.
"My dear Pearl, no they don"t brother. And why exactly are you being stingy with money?. It is not like you have anyone to spend it on though" Aurora said slightly angered by him.
"Alright, name your price after you give me the information I need" Prince conceded. "h.e.l.l, no it is payment first then work second" Aurora retorted. "Fine, then what exactly do you want?" Prince finally gave up.
Rubbing her palms together eagerly, Aurora stated her request. "Well not money, I can get that anytime but there is this little thing you can give to me and I would do a perfect job for you" "Yes, daddy"s little princess, what is it?" Prince said, he knew he had to give in to her sooner or later.
