Stephanie was so frightened. Never in her life has she seen her Grandfather looked at her with so much anger and disappointment” Grandfather I can explain it's not what you think”, she said trying to explain. Lawrence stared at his Granddaughter with disappointment. When it was time for the Business meeting he was surprised when he saw that she had not arrived because he knows that she does not joke with anything concerning the company. She has been planning for this Deal for a long time so he knows that there is no way she's going to blow it away. Luckily Piston came back on time from the trip he took to Italy to handle the deal, if not they would have lost the deal. When she didn't return yesterday he was so scared that something had happened to her, even her parents were worried. No one knew the Hotel she was in and she was not picking her calls. When he finally got the name of the Hotel she lodged at, He immediately called and was informed that Stephanie has not stepped out of h
After Stephanie got home she was scolded by her mom and Dad, they were very disappointed with her especially her mom” What have you done Stephanie! ?”, Gorgina asked, shouting. Stephanie started crying” Am sorry Mom, i don't know how it happened, she responded while crying. She faced her Dad '' please dad believe me, i don't know how it happened. I will never do something like that, she said to her dad”. Tears continued to run down her cheeks when her father gave her a look that shows that he was very disappointed in her. Jeffery looked at his daughter with disappointment. He could not believe it when Piston told him what happened, he has always known Stephanie to be dedicated to the business so missing the meeting for a very important project was just unbelievable. Piston was just watching everything that was happening. He felt delighted that his plan was working, though he felt a little bit guilty that Stephanie had a one night stand with a stranger but that did not stop him from
Aiden was flabbergasted to hear what the man had just said” What did you just say?”, he asked. Maria sighed and looked at him” Aiden there is something you need to know, she said in a low voice while avoiding his eyes. Aiden was getting inpatient” What is going on Mom and who is this man? he asked, looking at the man. His Ethan’s father, she responded. “What are you talking about? Ethan's father is dead,” he explained. What's going on? I don't…. He could not finish his statement because Maria interrupted him. I and Don are not your biological parents Aiden, she said in a low voice with moist eyes. Aiden felt weak in the knees, this was too much for him to handle. Ethan patted his shoulder” It's true man you are Ares's son, the heir of his empire”, he said. Aiden faced him” You were aware of my real identity all this while and you didn't tell me!” he yelled while clenching his fist. Ethan sighed” am sorry bro, we did that to protect you from George, “he said in a low voice. “
Aiden was seated in the car lost in thought. He was thinking of the new life he was about to face, he just can’t believe that the Almighty Ares was his father. He thought of his Biological Mother and had a mixed feeling, some part of him was excited to meet her while another part of him was feeling strange. He has always known Maria to be his Mother, though he can not remember the early stage of his life but he wishes that he still shares a bond with her. Aiden was still lost in thought when the Car’s engine ignition stopped, signifying that they had gotten to their destination. Ethan came back from the Car and went to open the Door for Aiden. It was after the door was open that he came back to his senses. Ethan smiled when Aiden came down from the Car” Welcome home Boss”, he said and bowed his head. “Boss' ' Aiden repeated the word and it sounded strange to his hearing. He has never been someone's Boss before for as long as he can remember, and now his best friend is calling
“Wha..t!” Aiden stammered and looked at his Mother to tell him that it’s not true.”But how is that actually possible, why would I shoot Sofia?” He asked. Ares looked at him” Well Aiden, me and your mom did not know that you secretly followed us to that isolated warehouse that day, it was not only you though both Rafael and Armstrong followed you”. Aiden looked at Ethan, who nodded his head confirming what his father said. He also looked at Armstrong who just smiled at him. He sighed '' Why did I shoot her?I know that I can't just shoot anyone without a valid reason” He said. Deris looked at him and held his hand and smiled” We know Aiden, you are not irresponsible and reckless, you shot Sofia because she was aiming to shoot at me with a sniper from inside the warehouse .” She caressed his hand and kissed it.”If not for you my son I would have been dead.” She said, looking at him with tenderness. Ares smiled seeing his wife and his son together again, he looked at his son” What yo
Inside the mansion, Lawrence was in his studies sitting on the chair while looking at some photos. He sighed and placed the photo on the table and caressed his head. While caressing his head, someone knocked on the door. “Come in” He said in a firm voice, shortly after, Piston walked inside and stood close to the table. Lawrence looked at him and gestured for him to sit down. Piston sat down and looked at his grandfather” Grandfather, about the man we met with Stephanie yesterday, you asked me to find out more about him. His name is Aiden Dun Donald. I found out that he works in Hush HOTEL as a Waiter and also as a Delivery boy in a fast food restaurant. Lawrence looked at Piston in disbelief, he could not believe Stephanie would miss a business deal for a Waiter.” Stephanie is impossible, how could she do such a thing?”He asked. He wanted to say something else when the door opened and Jeffery walked in. “You called me, father, '' he said while sitting down. Lawrence nodded his hea
After Stephabie fainted, her mom rushed to her aid” Stephanie are you ok?, please talk to me. Jeffery, call Mia!” she yelled. Jeffery immediately dialed Mia’s number, she is Stephanie's best friend and also her personal doctor. Immediately he dialed the number, she picked the call and he informed her about what happened, she responded that she will be there shortly. Lawrence looked at Stephanie lying on the bed in her room still unconscious while waiting for Mia’s arrival. He was really worried about her. Georgina was worried, she was pacing around the room, then she stopped and walked to where her Dad was standing” Father, I really don't understand what you said back there. What do you mean by she will be marrying that stranger, the same man who took advantage of her” she said, raising her voice. “ How can you say such a thing Georgina?, you should be hoping for our daughter to be fine and not this” Jeffery retorted. Just as Georgina was about to respond to his comment, Lawrence
Mia went inside Stephanie’s room after she was done with cooking, she observed her for sometime and sighed. She could see the hickeys on her skin. She knows that Stephanie has always been busy with work to have a man in her life. She looked at the hickeys again and wondered which man was responsible for it” Could it be Jasper '' she thought. She shook her head discarding the thought, Stephanie does not like Jasper to the point of being intimate with him. At this point, she could not think of anybody. She could not wait for Stephanie to wake up, so she could ask her. She sat down on the couch and started scrolling through her phone, after some minutes, she fell asleep on the couch. After about thirty minutes, Stephanie woke up. She rubbed her eyes like a kitten and yawned lightly. She came down from the bed and her eyes caught sight of Mia sleeping on the couch, she was surprised to see her in her room. “Mia” she called and went to tap her. Mia slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes
