Nathan Montgomery Rise To Riches Chapter 111
Nathan looked out of the window of the car that he was in. He was finally meeting with Gianni and her family today and hell, he wasn’t feeling so confident right now. His thoughts were all over the place and he was having a hard time thinking about what he would say when he met her again. Last night, he had thought about what he would say to her and this morning as he got dressed, he also did some form of rehearsal but as the car sped off towards the direction of her family mansion. Everything he rehearsed flew off his head. He couldn’t back out and tell the driver to take him back to the residence that he had been staying in because that would be disrespectful to Gianni’s parents since they were aware that he was coming over. He didn’t want the first impression of him to be someone who couldn’t keep his promise. “We have arrived,”The driver announced. Nathan was in awe. The entrance of the property was huge and screamed old money. Why did someone like Gianni whose family comes fro

Nathan walked nervously towards the couple, trying to grasp their mood and know if they were welcoming or not. Gianni’s mom had a bright smile on and her expression was soft and motherly, her dad didn’t look scary like he had expected because of everything he had read about her family and just how much power they had in Italy. In fact, the old man was smiling when he got close to them. “Good day sir, ma’am,”Nathan greeted politely while bowing slightly. “Hello, welcome son, we have been expecting you,”Gianni's father said in response to his greetings. “I got this,”He said and handed the bottle of wine to the father and the flower he got to Gianni’s mom who accepted it with a smile. She smelled the flower and clearly approved of it because she nodded and smiled at him. “Welcome to our house, son, please come in, we have been expecting you,”She said and reached for his hand which he gladly gave. He felt relief that her parents were at least welcoming. Maybe they didn’t know what

“Hi, Gia,”Nathan said. he wasn’t sure what else to say and there was silence in the room. He couldn’t look away from Gianni and she was staring directly into his eyes too, probably expecting him to say something but he couldn’t get any other words out and it was like she didn’t even hear his ‘hi’ or she chose to ignore it. She was wearing an oversized polo and a pair of skinny jeans, it was a basic outfit but she managed to make it look elegant. He hair was held up in a messy bun and she didn’t have any makeup on but that didn’t make her any less beautiful and breath-taking. If he wasn’t so consumed with nervousness, he might have actually started drooling. His eyes met hers again and for a moment he thought he saw longing in her eyes but it was gone in the next moment he concluded he must have imagined it because why would Gianni long for him? She might not hate him right now but she definitely does not like him either so the yawning he saw in her eyes was him projecting his feeling

Nathan wanted to come clean and tell her everything that brought him to Venice even about Sebastian’s marriage talk but he couldn’t say the words. They just made up. what if he over shares and then she ends up feeling overwhelmed and then she decides that she wanted none of it or worse, thinks that he came to Venice just to get her to do what he wanted? It would be a disaster and he wanted to avoid that. “Thank you,”He said instead of saying anything else. He still had about three weeks to tell her about the other stuff. For now, he needed to focus on solidifying her forgiveness and letting her get used to having him around. After that, he would finally tell her to come back to Italy with him. not even because of the marriage thing that Seb talked about but because he wanted her close where he could always see her. Sydney was so far from Venice. It would be hard to see her as much as he wanted if he didn’t convince her to move back with him. “Don’t thank me, you crazy man. Do you k

First kisses were for testing, tasting and they were a question and this kiss answered all the questions that had been running through his mind concerning what he really felt for Gianni and he was right, about how he felt for her and the fact that she felt something for him too, warmed his heart. Nathan angled his head and deepened the kiss as Gianni lifted her arms and wrapped around his neck, standing on her tiptoe, her lips parting beneath his. Her breath catching, sharp, and sweet when the tip of his tongue met hers and they danced in sync as they continued kissing. They broke apart for air. “I love how you taste,”Nathan whispered before he claimed her lips again, she moaned softly. He tugged at her bottom lips, biting and sucking in before taking her tongue into his mouth. He never thought he would be kissing Gianni when he got into the car earlier but he got lucky, she didn’t hate him and she was letting him kiss her while kissing him right back. “Hell, my parents,”Gianni sa

“My parents like you a lot, Mama especially, but then again, she has been trying to set me up with a potential husband and you might have fit into what she wants,”Gianni said as they took a walk in the flower field later that evening. He spent hours talking to her parents and her dad had suggested that Gianni show him around the house. which is what they were currently doing. “I am glad they do,”“So, you don’t mind that my mom might be trying to set us up?”Nathan shook his head in response. Wait until she found out his dad was trying to be a matchmaker too. “Should I?” “How long are you going to be in Italy for?”Gianni asked, ignoring his question. Nathan took her hand in his. She looked down at their joint hands before looking at him, he smiled and she did too. “Dad gave me a whole month. I thought it would really take that long to convince you to forgive me but you are such a kind-hearted woman and now I have three complete weeks and five days to spend exploring Italy and be

Nathan waited long enough for them to enter the house and closed the door behind them before he backed her against the door and claimed her lips in an intense kiss that was nothing like the ones they had shared earlier today, this kiss was a lot more intense and passionate with only one end goal in mind. The bed. Gia was there with him as her hands found their way to his hair, she was just as heated as he was and he liked that he wasn’t alone. When he left the house earlier, he never could have imagined that Gia would come back with him not to talk of making out with him right now. This was clearly his lucky year because everything he wanted so far, he got. He wanted the rest of his life to be like that. He always wanted to get what he wanted. “I want you so bad right now, Gia,”He whispered to her as he pulled her along with him to the bedroom he had been using since he arrived. Once in the room, he pulled her to him again and kissed her hard. He reached between them and took off he

They spent the next three weeks mostly together, they barely left the bed and when they did, it was to eat and sometimes they went over to the mansion to see her parents. They couldn’t hide the fact that they were together from her parents because her mom caught on almost immediately when they arrived at the house three days after they left. She had been overjoyed and hugged Nathan. She went on to talk about marriage plans and Gianni had shut her up but she didn’t give up. Nathan was pleased that they accepted their relationship. When he called Sebastian, the old man already knew because Gianni’s dad had told him and he was pleased too. Even if they had not approved, he still would have chosen to be with Gianni.Sebastian made sure to remind Nathan that he was to marry Gianni. That was the agreement. Nathan had rolled his eyes and told him to mind his business. He wanted to marry Gianni but he also wanted it to be at their pace and not because his dad wanted him to but because of some

“I had to trap you,”“Yeah and now I don’t fit in any of my clothes,”She lamented.“That’s why you have mine. Plus, your mom was super proud of me,”“Why won’t she? When you helped her fulfill her biggest wish. They are arriving tomorrow. My brothers are going to give you a piece of their mind,”Nathan pretended to shake in fear but he had no fear. His brother-in-laws were cool people and they treated him nicely. In fact, he recently signed a deal with her oldest brother. “They like me too much to scold me.”He reminded her. She rolled her eyes. “Are you coming with me or do you still want to be locked up here? You have been here all day,”She lamented. “I am done now. And by Monday, I will finish the last job I have to do and you will finally have me to yourself,”He assured her. “I wish. Next week is going to be very busy for us. We have the wedding rehearsals and other things. I don’t think we will have time for each other until after our wedding. I am having a bridal shower,

“Nathan, calm down. it’s just speculations right now and I am pretty sure if they are taking him to the mental hospital, he would still not be released,”Nathan honestly hoped that it was just speculation. Pedro was a terrible person who doesn’t deserve a second chance because if that fucker was given a second, third, and fourth chance, he would still do the same thing. He was rotten beyond repair. “I hope they don’t try to free him because that would not go well for any of them,”Nathan let out. Every other person that has wronged him was already paying for their crimes. Trent, Dylan, Dan, and all of Dylan’s men. Pedro won’t be any different because he did some many wrong shits. “Aren’t you supposed to meet with Alec today?”Gianni asked. Yeah, he was supposed to meet with Alec to discuss plans for the new resort in Greece but he said that his oldest daughter had the flu so he couldn’t make it. “We postponed. Callista has the flu,”He informed her. “Oh, poor child. I hope she get

“My brothers found out because Luna informed them that she saw something. They came and saw me crying during my engagement ceremony. He hit me that night and there were bruises on my arms. I had to tell them and they took action immediately,”She revealed. Nathan had so much respect for her brothers. They couldn’t be at the ceremony today but they sent their best regards.“Juan hacked into his system and deleted everything. I couldn’t believe I was finally free after two whole years of living in fear that if I did anything wrong he might expose me. In Venice, having your sex tape leaked could ruin both you and your whole family’s reputation,”Nathan knew how bad it could get. That was one of the things Dylan used against his victims.“Please tell me he went to jail,”“Sadly, no, I didn’t report what happened as I didn’t want to expose myself and my family to that kind of attention. I locked myself away and Luna was the few people who made sure I was okay, I met your dad shortly after

The event started immediately and Nathan followed through as the various directors gave different speeches and a live band performed and soon, the Vice President took the podium. Nathan knew he was next. He thought he would still feel nervous but he got over it when his name was called. He stood up with his head held high. The whole hall erupted in loud clapping when he walked to the podium and stood in front of the mic. He smiled. “Hello, good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for honoring the invitation and honoring me tonight. My name is Nathan Montgomery Ulmer. The chairman of Ulmer’s Holdings and the founder of Kay Royal Hotels.”He introduced. A lot of people didn’t know him as the founder of the new chains of hotels that have been making headlines lately and he saw the shock in their eyes. “I know, I know. a lot of people are not aware yet but I actually founded the Kay Royal Hotels a couple of months ago. The hotels though already in business will be officially launch

“Are you ready? There are a lot of reporters outside the venue and we have to walk the red carpet,”Gianni reminded him when their car came to a stop in front of the venue that they were using for the ceremony. It was one of Ulmer’s Event centers. The biggest event center in the city. The same event center that Pedro had almost sold to Dylan as part of his payment for the favors he did for him. Nathan pushed the thought of the criminals out of his mind and focused on the present.“Yes, I am ready.”He told Gianni as their car door was opened and the flashes of cameras almost blinded him. He got out of the car and helped her out. He didn’t let go of her and together they walked the red carpet. Waving at reporters. They stood for a few media photos before they walked into the main auditorium.There were no interviews because they made sure to inform the reporters who would be present that they weren’t granting any.The auditorium was already packed full when they walked in.“Our seat is

“Mr. Chairman? Mr. Chairman? How are you feeling today and what have you been up to recently?”Nathan laughed when Nelly placed a mic in front of him when he got down the stairs. She had a new interest. She no longer wanted to be a doctor or an actress. She wanted to be a reporter and she has been going at it all week. Waiting for him to show up and then asking him questions. He liked the session too so he made sure to answer her questions each time.“Hmm, I haven’t been up to much, recently but today is my inauguration ceremony, that’s all for today.”Nathan said with a smile. It has been a month since Sebastian made the announcement and everything after that had been good for him. Pedro was arrested the same night. When Nathan woke up the day after the attack, the news of Pedro’s arrest had been everywhere. Even the news about his attempt to get everything from Sebastian by kidnapping him was also revealed. Sebastian said he gave the go-ahead for the news to be published. As expec

“Hey, ladies,”Nathan greeted them when he walked into the movie room.“Shush! We are trying to watch a movie,”Nora scolded him. he placed his hand over his mouth and quietly went to sit with Gianni who smiled at him. he spent the last hour speaking to the police because they had a few questions for him. he even offered to go to the police station if they wanted but they said there was no need for that. He answered all the questions. Retelling everything that Pedro had told him on the phone. Including when he had admitted to being the one who punished his father down the stairs. Thankfully, Nathan had their conversation recorded so he sent the recording to the police. He was reassured that Pedro would be arrested soon. Nathan focused on the movie his sisters were watching. “Hey, how is your dad?”Gianni whispered beside him.“He is fine. He went to bed early because of the stress of today and I am now the chairman,”He announced proudly and watched her eyes widen in shock.“That’s

Sebastian answered a few questions that the reporters had most of which were about what Pedro had said in the interview he did a few weeks ago. Sebastian answered the questions and debunked everything that wasn’t true. Concerning the Dylan issue, Sebastian told the reporters that it had nothing to do with him as he didn’t consider Pedro one of his own anymore. He was also asked if he would try to save Pedro’s company or buy him out and to that Sebastian had answered that he had no interest in doing any of that but his son might have interest and they could hear it from him directly or wait to find out after the purchase has been completed. Nathan laughed when Sebastian looked his way and whispered “Help” Nathan took that as his cue to take over the meeting. He took the mic from his dad and smiled at the cameras. “MY old man has had enough. If you guys have any other questions. You can ask me. Thank you to everyone who made time to be here for this meeting and to those who are watch

“You are fighting a lost battle and you know it. you keep doing more shit and locking yourself further into the dark room. There is no saving you and honestly, I don’t want to. Just know the only reason you got to this point was because Sebastian still saw you as family and wanted to give you as much chance as possible but not anymore,”Nathan told him. not like he expected Pedro to listen to him. if he was going to listen, he would have stopped the minute he found out the DNA test proved that Nathan was indeed an Ulmer. There was no stopping and this time, he was going to jail. “Everything would have been okay if you didn’t come into the picture. I made a mistake. It should have been that bitch. I should have picked her instead and finished her off. By then I won’t have anything to lose. She was the reason you came into the picture. Don’t fucking think this is over. It will never be over until I get what rightful belongs to me,”Pedro promised and before Nathan could say anything el
