Chapter 342: A Pitiful Attempt at Vengeance
While Alex was having dinner with Jasmine, and slowly raising her affection towards him via a rather bombastic display of brutal honesty, Ali was plotting against him. By now the Prince of Omar had leaned that his bride to be Aisha had fled to America, and into the arms of another man.
And though the Saudi King had dispatched agents to secure her person, and drag her back to Saudi Arabia, as well as to execute Alex for his shameful actions. Alex and Aisha were able to escape to god knows where before he could do so.
This put the Kingdom of Suadi Arabia and the Sultanate of Oman in a very difficult position. After all, their alliance hinged on the fact that Aisha would marry Ali. But it was clear by now that even if Aisha could be recovered, her chastity would have been stained by this American playboy. And because of this, whatever agreement had been made between the two wealthy Arab Oil States had come to a sudden end.
Now, Ali had become obsessed with Alex. Learning everything there was to know about the man, in an attempt to take away everything that he had. Like Alex had done to him. Or so that is how Ali felt. And the man wanted to start this by seducing Alex’s lovers. Much in the same way, Alex had seduced his fiancée.
Without even warning his father, Ali flew out to Las Vegas, Nevada where he set up an appointment with Alex’s mother, Diana, posing as a wealthy investor, one who wanted to bring the fine game of gambling to Oman in an attempt to increase tourism.
It was his plan to first Seduce Alex’s mother, then his sisters, then his American lovers, before finally moving onto the man’s many other lovers in Mexico and South Korea. Once he had stolen everything from Alex, Ali would kill the man in the most brutal way he could fathom. Or such was his plot.
And it all started with Diana. Because of this, Ali was sitting across Diana in the middle of her board room. The two of them were alone, aside from the mature blonde beauty’s bodyguards, and he had just made up some bullshit offer about bringing casinos into Oman’s capital city.
It was a prospect Diana was interested in. After all, with Alex’s business mastery, something he gained from the system he had inherited after transmigrating to this world. He had helped Diana’s business enter a state of global expansion.
Countries that had previously outlawed Gambling were now openly accepting her chain of casinos and resorts with open arms. To say that Ali was just one of many foreign dignitaries seeking to gain Diana’s interest would be an understatement.Still, he was the only Crown Prince who had approached her, and because of this, she felt that the man had significantly more power to appease her demands than others who had come asking for her to build in their countries.
Thus, after reviewing the man’s proposal, which was put together by his more than capable servants, Diana ultimately accepted the offer, not knowing his ulterior motives in the slightest.
“Based upon the presentation you have made, and assuming your word is your bond, I do believe Oman may be a prime destination for our expansion. Though there are a few other areas in the Middle East that have made offers, yours is by far the most enticing.
I will still need to speak with my so… Board of directors about this, but I do believe you will be hearing from me shortly.”
To Ali, this was a good sign that his plan was working, and thus he quickly made an offer to the woman, believing she couldn’t refuse a handsome and intelligent young oil prince like himself.
“That’s great! So how about you and I go out and celebrate over dinner? On me, of course!”
Diana looked at Ali as if he was the most disgusting man she had ever met the moment he proposed this idea. It was not something that the wealthy oil prince was accustomed to seeing, as most women would jump at the opportunity to eat dinner with him, among other things. But the words she spoke were like a knife that pierced his heart.
“Don’t misunderstand me. Prince Ali… Although I am more than happy to do business with you, I have a rule about being alone with men other than my son. Even if it is a professional matter, such as a business dinner, I would need at least two other women to be present in the room with me if I were to entertain such an offer.”
Ali’s jaw dropped when he heard this. Just what kind of bullshit rule was this? Wasn’t this woman single, not even if she was seeing somebody already? Why in the hell would she be so uptight about eating dinner with someone of the opposite sex?
Despite being rejected, Ali was not deterred, and he was about to follow up with a counterproposal when Diana received a text message on her phone. She entirely ignored the man, putting her finger up and telling him to wait while she read it.
“Oh, just one moment. My son has responded to my text!”
Diana read the comment for but a moment, before killing any dreams that Ali might have about taking her out to dinner, let alone bedding her in an act of vengeance against Alex for stealing his fiancee.
“I apologize, Prince Ali, but even though my son is dreadfully busy having dinner with a young lady, he has spared the time to look over your proposal. Isn’t he wonderful? He cares so much about his mother! Well, it would appear that he believes that doing business with Oman would be a bad idea, and that we should instead accept the proposal that Abud Dhabi has presented us with.
Thank you for the offer, but it appears that it has been rejected. Guards, please escort the Omani Prince out of the building!”
Prince Ali had no idea what had happened just now. But while Alex was eating with Jasmine, he saw the mention Diana had made of Ali’s proposal in the group chat between him and his harem. He immediately rejected the idea, and told his women to be wary of the Omani Prince, and that they should immediately reject the man if he were to approach them.
Alex told his women the honest truth that Ali was Aisha’s ex-fiancé, one who she had run away with Alex to get away from, and that he was likely on a path of vengeance towards him because of it. Alex also stated he would increase security around his women.
Because of this, Ali’s plans for vengeance were immediately nullified with a single text. Diana, ever being the loyal and doting mother of her son, immediately called for Ali’s forceful removal from her property, an act which the Omani Prince found to be not only stunning but also appalling.
