Chapter 46

He looked around the house but the whole house was empty. It clicked in his head that Saturdays were the days that the staff took their day off.

He rang the bell for Roberto to come in and he voted in the huge sitting room downstairs.

“Good evening, Chairman.” He bowed before Lorenzo. The first time he met Lorenzo, if anyone had told him that Lorenzo was going to be the next Chairman of Rossi's group.

“When did Daphne leave?” Lorenxo asked him.

“Miss Daphne had clocked out before I resumed for my shift, You weren’t around during the day?”

“No sir, you told her to find someone to rotate the job with me.”

“She employed someone else already? Who is he? When did he begin the work?”

“I don’t know much about him but he is an American. I detected it from the way he writes his report. He started working here on Monday.”

“What time did he report that my guests left?”

“2pm, sir.”

Was she that desperate to leave me?

“Thank you Roberto.”

“Is there anything else you’d like to know sir?

She should see Alessandro before she leaves.” Leonora faced her brother.They were both sitting in the back seat of the Rolls Royce, Leonora’s favorite car.“I’d have Daphne look into it, Did you change your driver?” Lorenzo noticed a change of deodorant smell coming from Driver’s seat.“Yeah, I fired the last one. I heard him spill things we talked about to someone over the phone.”“Did you know who he was talking to?”“No, it could be your ex-wife. Maybe that’s why she left.”Lorenxo went silent as he tried to remember what they discussed word for word, he had not said any offensive thing, did he?“What is on your mind?” Leonora lowered the window. “When will Thomas and Antonio join us?” He asked, not revealing what was really on his mind.“They will join us at the mansion. We should be staying a few days there with you and Nana.”“It would be nice to have the whole family together.”“Adonis will be st

"Good afternoon, Mother " He replied to her as calmly as he could. He respected the fact that she still shared some blood ties with him through Alessandro; he would have thrown her out of his office if Hazel didn't bear his son."I told you I wasn't your mother, you useless…""I'd advise you to give me some honor and mind what you say to me.

It was the break he needed.Aurora had broken their relationship off because of her Arabian prince and the two decided to announce it after she extends their hotel to the Arabian prince’s hometown.“The interview sir,” Aurora replied to him. She placed some files on his table while he sat down.“Are the applicants around?” He flipped the files open and he started going through them.“Yes sir.”“I didn’t see them while I was walking in. Where are they?”“They just completed their screening at the HR’s office. I will ask them to come up.” She looked out and saw a few men walk in. “I think they are here, sir.”“Please make me some iced coffee, on your way out, ask the first applicant to come in.”“Okay,” She bowed with courtesy and walked away.

    Chapter 50“Abducted?” Leonora asked shockingly, switching positions with her husband. “What do you mean by abduction?” She tied her robe properly.“I just found Hazel’s phone under my pillow and one of Alessandro’s shoes under my bed.”“It could be a coincidence, have you reached out to her family yet?”“Yes, they have no idea about where she is. It is no coincidence that one of his shoes, not a pair, was still in the room, Nora.”“Where did you think the abduction took place? Here?”“I am not saying yes but My instincts are telling me to check the security footage. The staff do not have access to the place right?”“They don’t, I will give you the access tonight. I should have done that a long time,”“Babe,” Leonora faced her husband. “I will be back soon,” She kissed Thomas on the lips and she followed her brother out of the room.

Her eyes swung open after being conscious for a few mins with it opening her eyes.She didn’t even know that she had bandages around every joint on her. Her body barely felt any pain. All her mind was on her son.He passed out for a long time before Lorenzo came to their rescue.“Mrs Rossi,” one of the nurses called as she saw Hazel looking for Alessandro in the general word.Hazel didn’t know that the nurse was calling her, no one’s ever addressed her as Mrs Rossi even when she was still married to Lorenzo.The nurse tapped her back, “Ma’am, I was calling you.”“I’m sorry, I didn’t here. I am looking for my sim, Alessandro Rossi,” Hazel answered cheerfully hoping that the nurse shows her her sim is.“You should rest up so you can heal up soon and be health enough to see him,”“Are you sh*ting me?

    Chapter 54Lorenzo returned from work, the sound of water was coming from the bathroom. Hazel was obviously showering. He took off his clothes, lying on his briefs and he laid down on the bed. He remembered that Hazel and Aleassnsdoo didn’t have any clothes on and he was sure that she would not set foot in any shopping mall.He would ask Leonora to do some shopping for her instead. The door of the bathroom closed and he knew she was done. He wanted to get up to give her clothes but she had disappeared into his closet.She re-appeared wearing his new polo and his briefs. It was way bigger than her but the briefs hugged her ass and her hips in the right places. No, he could not think of her that way, especially when Aless was still in the hospital.“That shirt cost a lot and the designer made one type of it plus my briefs, I didn't ask you to take them off.”“I can take them off and be naked if that’s what you would prefer.

    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

Daphne and Aurora had worked together even if Aurora was only using daphne, she was the most likely person to know where Aurora was. 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. Aurora had to pay.He hastily parked his car and jumped out and ran inside to the reception."I need to see Daphne Giovannì " He said, out of breath.The lady at th

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? Was he scared that Hazel would treat him like she used to? Does he still have PTSD from the situation?He needs to see a therapist

He was sitting beside the wall. “Luca, please call the hospital to wait for us at the entrance.”“Mommy is a little sick, we need to take her to the hospital for treatment.'' He hopes that Sandro buys his story because he was a smart boy and was going to read the situation.“She had blood

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
