Chapter 17

“Is that not our Young master on the chair?” Daphne called David’s attention to the person lying on the bench opposite his house.

“Oh God.” David exclaimed, he parked the car and the two of them swung out of the car.

“Ms Rossi will be so mad at us.” Daphne rubbed her hands against her thighs in a panic. “Is he alive?”

David moved closer to his boss, then he put his finger on his neck to check his pulse. “He is fine, and he is also breathing.” He took his finger away from Lorenzo’s nose.

“Let’s take him to the mansion before anyone sees us here.” Daphne suggested.

“Okay.” David and Daphne went to deliver an invitation to Lorenzo in his place when they saw him lying lifeless on the bench opposite his house.

They carried him into the car and rushed him down to the mansion.

Leonora had instructed them that if Lorenzo needed to go to the hospital, they should bring him to the mansion for security and privacy.

They turned on the heater as they drove to the mansion. By the time th

    Chapter 18Lorenzo heard two knocks on his door. He knew immediately that it was Daphne. Each worker had a designated way of knocking on the door.“Come in.” He said softly.Daphne clicked on the recognition machine in front of the room and the door opened.The major rooms in the Rossi’s mansion had high security because their enemies try to attack them when they have events in their house.“Good morning, young master.” She went close to Lorenzo’s bed and grabbed his tab.“Good morning, sir.” He groaned without opening his eyes. “Wake me up in the next one hour.”Daphne filled out his task on the tab and she let him sleep some more. She came across the Divorce mail while she was working on his tab.“What are you doing?” He came down from his bed and took his tab from her. He saw she was checking through his emails.“Give that to me.” His facial expression changed to a cold one. “I don’t like it when people go through my stuff.” He said coldly before he went into the bathroom with the

The meeting went better than he expected, and he was tired from listening to all the shareholders' talk.His mind drifted off to Hazel and the divorce mail he received. A beep came from the side of his bed. He got up from the bed to pick up the call.“Room service. We are at the door, sir.” “I didn’t ask for anything.” He spoke subtly into the landline.“It’s the courtesy of our managing director. She also asked us to deliver some things to you. Can we come in?”“Yes,” The door opened, and a hotelier pushed a tray of food in, then the other hotelier came in with a rack with tuxedos on it.“Good evening, Mr. Rossi. Our Managing director has humbly apologized, and she’s requesting that you eat then wear one tuxedo of your choice here.” One of the hoteliers started.“We have an event tonig

She wasn’t in her suite. Her body went cold as she noticed she was in a VVIP suite.That is enough to cause a scandal and her father would strip her of her position in the hotel and give it to her reckless older brother, who knew nothing about business.She held her head, trying to remember how she got to the suite. Memories of how she was drinking recklessly swarm into her head.Being a light drinker was her only weakness. That's why she avoids alcohol. Seeing Micheal had shaken her up. Her first love and the man that almost ruined her life.Mr. Rossi was the biggest defence she had against him, but seeing him with another woman still pricked her like a thorn.She got down from the bed and she saw a lean body lying uncomfortably on the couch.“Mr Rossi.” she thought to herself. “He must hav

Sweat trickled from his forehead as he feared his father’s reaction.Things turned out that way because he left the hotel room rashly, but he had thought that Aurora needed some time to herself.“I shouldn’t have taken her to my room.” He lamented in his head.Leonardo signaled to the driver to move.“Father,” He started but didn’t know how to continue. He had not just only exposed himself to some enemies but to the whole city despite the agreement he had with his father and sister.Leonardo looked at his son with keen interest in what he wanted to say. His eyes met his dad’s eyes again and he finally summoned courage to talk.“I.. Err.. I didn’t mean to get exposed to the press.” He said with huge disappointment in himself, wiping his sweaty palm on his pants.“It’s normal for that to happen among the rich and famous. This is your first scandal, and it’s not bad. It has no effect on us because they don’t know you.

    Chapter 23“How did the meeting go?” Leonora inquired curiously from her brother as soon as his assistant put him on the phone.“It started well but it didn’t end well.” He sounded dejected.“What happened? You sound like you got disappointed.” “It is more like my past came to attack me.” He let out a sigh.“Fill me in, don’t keep me in suspense.”“Someone that knew me from the factory said I am not on the company’s side because of how I was treated at the factory. He said they couldn’t trust me and the others agreed with him.”“Really? They decided to not work with you for that reason? Did you tell them who you were?”“Yes, I said I was Lorenzo.”“Did you tell them that you were the chairman’s son?”“No. I didn’t want them to accept my opinion without considering the pros and cons.”“They wouldn’t do that. Brother, you need to get your act together and be assertive. You should have stopped them from leaving even if you had to use their incentives to threaten them.”“I don’t think t

It stated that the 29 years old Aurora wasn’t married.Before he pressed the doorbell, the door opened and Aurora was standing in some flimsy thing gown. He could see her glory beneath her gown. “Can I come in?” He stuttered as he looked away from her body.“Of course.” She ushered him in. Passing through the huge mirror that was hung on the wall, she realized she had gone out half naked to get the door.She hurried into her room to get some real clothes on while Lorenzo sat down on the chair.“I am sorry for my little moment. I wasn’t in my right senses when I came to open the door.” She sniffed and wiped the tears that wanted to fall from her ey

    Epilogue Five Years Later. Leonora had forced us to come down to Delaware for Father’s memorial, instead of doing it separately, depending on the country. “I do not appreciate being here when I have a meeting in France,” Lorenzo whined over Lunch. “How do you cope with this rascal?” Nora faced Hazal with a disapproving look. “He is addicted to work as always, talking about being in France while we celebrate our father’s ten years memorial.” Hazel giggled, “You know how he is.” “Sweetie, are you taking sides with her? This is why you should never trust women.” Lorenzo pointed his fork at Nora. “She told me I could work as much as I wanted before I retire.” Then he continued eating. “I did tell him that, he kept saying he was bored at home and all.” “You are in this together. Nice. How is work though? I heard you have opened an IT center in New York and it is making waves.” “It’s all thanks to my husband and your husband too, he helped out with the set up and internal works.”

I really thought I was going to lose you.” He said in between loud sobs.Hazel watched with tears in her eyes as her man wept in front of her. Being too weak to do any other thing, she reached for his hand with a sense of longing.“I’m here, Lorenzo. I’m here.” She reassured him. This little action made Lorenzo cry harder.Hazel then remembers that she is with child. Panicking, she touches her stomach. “My baby, is my baby okay?

    Chapter 75As he got into his car, the incident with Daphne was already behind him, he gripped the steering wheel in anger as he tried to calm himself. He didn't know what he would do to Aurora when he found her, but he didn't trust himself not to hurt her. He parked his car in front of his Company and rushed out. He rushed towards the elevator, ignoring the greetings of his staff. Before he got into the elevator, he stopped one of them and told her to call the police. She nodded weakly and ran to do that.The elevator door closed and he punched in the button that took it to the basement floor. He knew that if Aurora was here she would make sure that none of the staff had seen her when she was coming so asking them was pointless. She wasn't stupid and she knew her way around the company. The elevator dinged and he stepped out. He looked around but couldn't find anything, he only saw metal pipes and heard water dripping somewhere. He looked around and saw a small light coming fro

He needed to get to the detection center as soon as possible, or else Aurora would get away with what she had done. He couldn't let her get away with it. She put the woman He is in love with in the hospital and took his child away from him. He owed it to Hazel to make her pay for what she had done. He couldn't even begin to imagine how broken Hazel will be when she wakes up and her child is gone, and it was all his fault. If only he had seen the signs earlier, he could have prevented this from happening, Hazel would be fine and their child would be alive.

He had not gotten the chance to give it a name like Hazel wanted.Work had taken all his time that could not make time to have a talk about the baby’s name with his baby mama and girlfriend. She mentioned it a few times and he had told her to pick any names she wanted since she did a good job naming Sandro.She refused and offered to pick out some names then they would select the best ones of the baby which he agreed to but he never did.He had seen a tweet that Elon musk has many companies, 10 kids and he still replies to random tweets on twitter, no one is ever too busy to make time.He was rich, very richer than Elon Musk but he didn’t have ten kids nor did he use twitter, he had no excuse for not making time for his family.What was he running from?

Lorenzo said, straightening his back, he wished she would see what she was doing was wrong but he knew he couldn't let her talk to him like that.He had worked hard on the Company for a long time and she had seen it all. She knew how much he loved the company "Or what?" She said, Her mouth pulled into a sneer,"what exactly would you do?" "Aurora…" "Do you remember that day?" She said, cutting him off."What day?"

    Chapter 69“Why did you try to be friends with me in the first place? You didn’t want anything to do with me. I can remember how you made me go on that date with you. You were literally begging me.” He was furious, she wasn’t even showing signs of remorse. Her intentions were showing clearly on her face, how heartless and selfish she was.Her kind face was now dark. Lorenzo felt like he was seeing her deeds on her face. They were hidden, that was why he never saw them. It is better to say she was hiding them.He had never met someone that was so pretentious. Hazel’s family never hid their hate from him, this was pretty different to him.“Do you know the extent I go when I want something? Mind you, Michael and I had not broken up officially at the time he was seeing your wife, I planned to take you to make him jealous.”All Lorenzo could see was her pathetic face and the pathetic words flying out of her mouth. She was talking with pride and a sense of accomplishment. He should have j
