BRAXTON'S SEX ADDICTION novel Chapter 17

"Why will grandfather want you to look after the company while I go to Paris? What kind of sick game are you playing this time around, Mason?"She asked with a raised eyebrow, she refused to show the amount of anger emanating from her, she wanted to grab her father and strike him in the face but she couldn't do that no matter how angry she was but from her calling him by his first name, he knew that she was angry.

"Oh, Albert Young is a purpose driven man, Alicia. You and I know that he cares a great deal about this empire, you might be the one running things but you respect his decisions. Tell me, are you thinking about not going to Paris? Why? You're scared that Albert Young will find me more impressive than you? Is that why you're here to convince me? Oh poor Alicia, my poor child."He said mockingly.

"I worked hard for where I am today, Father. You can't take that away from me, I worked hard for over a decade to be where I am, you won't rip off my hard work, sweats, blood and tears. And don't worry, I'm not leaving my position for you, you will never top over me, father. The only heir I have is Tanya, the earlier you realize that, the better for you."Alicia said calmly and turned to walk to the door but stopped, she glanced behind her back and smirked. "Continue with the fun you were having."

When she got inside the elevator again; riding up to her floor, she sucked in a sharp breath.

Her relationship with her father has always been strained. He doesn't like her and the feeling was mutual.

He felt like a female can't rule Empire corporation but he got the shock of his life when she was made the director, the next in line to be the company's chairwoman.

She walked back inside her office after getting out of the elevator and she smiled widely. She smiled because of her decision, she smiled because she knew that she was finally dishing back the energy to her father, she smiled because for once in a long time, she felt at peace.

Her mind raced to Tanya and she smiled, her sweet baby. She walked towards her desk and grabbed her phone then searched her contacts for her daughter's phone number.

When she finally found it, she clicked on the number and placed the phone against her ear.

The phone rang twice before Tanya picked it up.

"Mom, what's up?"She asked. Alicia smiled wholeheartedly and walked towards the window, she pushed out the curtain and looked out at the busy streets of New York.

"I'm fine, darling. How is my baby girl doing?"She questioned, her face all smiles.

"I'm fine, mom. You remember what tomorrow is right?'
