"That's great Mr. Fernandez"

"That is correct Mr. Scott but where I want to build the Mall the land is own by you."

"I have billions in land, Mr. Fernandez you will have to give me more."

"I understand Mr. Scott, I would like to purchase the land you own on the other side of Miami surrounded by the trees and forestry"

"Oh, I would go do that yes, but that land is already sold."

"Mr. Scott you don't understand I need that land, money is not an issue I can pay twice as much as he did"

"I know that, however I don't go back on a deal, the person paid three times as much."

"Mr. Scott would like to know the person who purchase that land"

"Mr. Fernandez you know I don't give that information out."

"Mr. Scott I wasn't asking you."

Mr. Scott look surprise by his statement, but knowing how powerful Alexander is and he wasn't in for any trouble, he decide to tell him.

"Mr. Alexander the land was purchase by one Miss Catalia Pedro to build a wonderful home away form home resort."

Alexander was shocked by his revelation but didn't show any emotions as to what he just heard.

"Thank you Mr. Scott it was a pleasure having you here."
"Your welcome, do enjoy your day, team let's go."
Alexander nod and escorted them out.

Alexander went to his office.
Press the intercom.
"Miss Lyons, My office now"
Miss Lyons was shaken by his tone, wondering what as she done now.
She knocked on the door,
"Yes, Mr. Fernandez?" She said in a low tone.
"All my appointments for the day cancel them, I'll be leaving."
"Ok Sir, I will. Is there anything else?"
"No." And she left.
——————————————————————————-
Alexander decide to leave earlier than normal. On his way home all he can think off was the moment Mr. Scott told his Catalia own the land he wanted so badly.

He reached the hotel about 1:30 in the afternoon only to see Miss Pedro in a sun kiss bathing suit walking to the pool area.
Her beauty magnifies under the rays of the sun. Her curves striking and she wasn't covered. Who could blame her a body like that was phenomenal, who would want to hide it.
He was snapped out his gaze when he saw her looking at him, but she didn't acknowledge him, she was still upset from last night he figured.

    Alexander got to room and got dress to enjoy a day by the pool as well. He needed to apologize for last night an get some information about the land, if she is willing to tell him.

"Omg your body is gorgeous." She said but got no reply.
She frowned.

Catalia was captivated by this man, she wanted to know who he is, he wanted to see his face, if he had this body he must be handsome too.
Catalia proceed to touch the man.

"Excuse me Sir." he didn't move.
She touched him again and he turned.
"I am Catalia, and you are?"

He proceed to get up and took the hat off his face.

"Nice to know you find me attractive." Then started laughing.
