Alexei's P.O.V
Hi guys, enjoy reading this chapter, stay safe and please leave a comment.
I was once again reading the letter that my grandmother had left me. I read it every time I felt depressed. My grandmother had asked my dad to deliver the message to me after her passing. My grandmother was rich, but she never gave me anything expensive. She only gave me what I needed. It was probably her way of teaching me how hard it was to survive in this world. No one even knew that I was Anastasia Marquis's grandson. People wouldn't even suspect that we were related when they saw us together. I looked more like my mother than my father, and I was happy about it.
My grandmother made sure that no one meddled with her private life. So no one even knew that I was living with her. I earned my pocket money by working as a delivery boy at a nearby restaurant. I enjoyed my life and made a lot of great friends at school. Chance Madden was one of the friends that I made in my teens. I became friends with him without knowing that his father worked for my grandmother. Mr. and Mrs. Madden moved from the U.S to France to work at my grandmother's textile company. And they had a pretty good life in France.
I was sure that people wouldn't treat me the same way if they knew who I was. Chance and I became inseparable in our last year of high school. We went everywhere together and had our lives already planned out. Chance Madden was going to move back to the U.S with his parents after his father's contract expired. He was planning to follow in his father's footsteps.
Chance Madden was going to become a businessman like his father. My dream was to become a surgeon. I was already looking for a university in the U.S when my grandmother passed away. Chance knew what I needed or wanted without me telling him. My best friend supported me through a difficult time, and I was thankful to him. I only stayed in contact with two of my other friends after leaving France. I made Chance Madden my vice president as soon as he graduated from Stanford University.
It took me two years to learn how the business world worked. I read many books to obtain the knowledge that I have today. I also did online studies to get a degree in business management. I wasn't surprised when I found out that I had a great talent for business. It was nothing to be proud of because it was in my blood. My mother had also been a famous designer before she died.
She sold her designs to many popular clothing stores. I sighed while reading my grandmother's letter. She had amazingly written, "Dear Alexei, I'm sorry for leaving you so soon, and for ruining your future. I worked hard to create my empire. I couldn't allow an outsider to destroy it. You are my blood, so you know how much I cared for my companies."
"I love you and know you, my dear grandchild. You were born to take over my place. Your father knew that he couldn't manage his family life and the business, and that is why he left. I have already arranged everything for you. I have hired amazing people to guide you. Please, Alexei, don't let my hard work go in vain. I know what your heart desires. I have been praying every day for you, my child. You'll see Alexei, God, will surely grant my wish. You'll meet the one that your heart desires soon. Your loved one will not only support you mentally but emotionally too. They will be smart, gorgeous, and compassionate."
