“You finally came, you said forty minutes, it has been more than one hour,”Gianni scolded when he entered the living room. “Sorry, it took a longer time than I predicted, sorry for keeping you waiting,” He apologized and took his seat. “It is fine,”She responded. He noticed she looked sad and was almost in tears. “What happened Gia?” He asked sitting opposite her, she smiled. “You are the only person that has called me that since I got here, only my family calls me Gia,” “For real? Your family doesn’t live here? I thought Johan is your cousin?’ He asked confused. “Yup, he is but he calls me Gianni or Anni,” She informed. Anni sounded about right but it reminded him of a certain someone he would rather not remember so Gia it is. “What about your other family?”he asked even though he knew he should just ask why she wanted to see him, there was actually no need of knowing who her family is. “They all live in Italy, in fact, until Johan came down to Sydney after graduating
Nathan woke up early the next morning and took a warm bath, after which he got ready, it was the first time he was wearing a suit in a long time, the last time he had worn a suit was five years ago during a college seminar, he stared at his reflection in the mirror and was satisfied with how he looked, he ditched his usual rough edge bangs for a slick do so that his hair was out of his face, it was foreign seeing his forehead without the bangs after a long time. He looked more mature and just like a real businessman, he was ready to face a group of greedy men whose only interest is to line their already full pockets, he had his mind mainly on Pedro, that man has done enough and should be stopped, he hated that even with everything he has done, he keeps getting richer, and if he let him win again, that would just be adding more “Not this time, he will not get it this time,”He said and smirked at his expression in the mirror. After he finished dressing up, he went down for breakfast a
“Who might you be? Because I am sure you are not really the son of our brother, not a single resemblance to him,”The one Nathan assume to be the most daring of them asked, aside from Pedro of course since he was obviously the leader. “Are you sure? Or maybe you are blinded by the fact that you wish I will never be found and now you can’t accept that I am here,”Nathan said with a smirk. They were beyond threatened by his presence in the room and were all looking at each other waiting for who will speak first, he didn’t rush it and gave them all the time they need to collect their thoughts, they were in for a ride with him. “You can’t be my uncle’s son, because that son doesn’t even exist, it is the medication that he is taking that is making him make shits like that up,”Pedro let out and Nathan laughed. “Right, and you know that, how? Anyway, it is up to Sebastian to determine whether I am his son or not, and not you, now let’s not push our luck here by assuming things,”Nathan a
“What are you saying? That’s your money everything in there is yours, the only reason I am aware is that the card is connected to mine but I already unconnected it this morning so you don’t have to worry about me knowing how much you spent and you don’t have to worry about it running dry ei9ther because for every million you use, I good ten more million is entering,”Gianni disclosed which got Nathan wondering just how much wealth he was going to be in control of when he finally get named as the heir by Sebastian, he had an idea but also had reasons to believe it might be more than he ever imagined. “Right, I am still not used to it,”He responded and she laughed. She dropped him off at the hospital, she wanted to come with him but he had told her no, he wanted to have time with his sisters and he didn’t want them to be uncomfortable, she understood him and left with her driver after he told her to make sure to call him if anything else happens, he didn’t have to meet Sebastian until
“You are right, do you know that good things happened to me once I broke things off with her,”he told her and realized it was true, even though bad things had also happened to him after he broke up with her, the good things that happened overpowered the bad. “Right, now you are seeing the light, in fact, I will prefer you be with someone like the pretty lady you work for that with that witch, I disliked her so much,”Nora let out. She did a pretty good job hiding her dislike because he never would have thought she did if she had not mentioned it, it never crossed his mind until she had because Nora had always been nice to Annie when he was around. “Nora, Gianni is married, and you never even made me know that you didn’t like Annie,”he said. “Aha, I keep forgetting who the pretty lady is, about your ex, she was the only thing that made you really happy, I saw the way you were with her and didn’t want to ruin it because you deserve all the happiness in the world, I figured you know
“I didn’t forget, look, let’s just meet up and talk like adults, we are too grown to be having a conversation over the phone, send me your address and I will come to you,”she persuaded. At first, he didn’t want to meet her, he was still hurt by what she did to him but after a second thought, he decided to let her see the new him, so that she will see with her own eyes what she threw away, of course, he wasn’t going to give her his house address, she didn’t deserve to know where he lives. “You know what, you are right, we should meet up, we need to set some records straight but definitely not at my house, I don’t want it to be tainted by your filthiness,” He let out and heard her gasp in horror, which gave him some kind of satisfaction, she was in for a ride with him, he would make her feel how he had felt when he found her cheating on him and she went ahead to make a fool out of him. “You are mean, just text me where you want us to meet and I will meet you there,” She requested.
“You are really that insecure? You can’t mean it, this is twenty-twenty-three Nathan and we are not married, a woman can keep multiple partners, it is not a big deal, not like I am going to marry him, I was just having fun,” She said as if it was the most normal and natural thing to say. Nathan realized she wasn’t even feeling remorseful for what she did, far from it, she was saying she did what she wanted and he should live with it, the hell he will. “Let’s see, I don’t care what you do with other men, what I am saying is, this man here,”he said pointing at himself. “This man is out of your league, I don’t fuck with cheap whores,” He added and watched her face redden, it was either she was embarrassed or pissed off, either way, he didn’t care. “They say money does change people and I just witnessed it, all I did was have a little fun like every woman my age yet, you are breaking up with me for it when on the day it happened, you had willing to take me back, now you have changed
The next couple of days saw Nathan falling into a pattern with his sisters, he still needed to recover so Gianni had advised him to spend the remaining days until Seb returns to recover properly, he spent his mornings with Nelly who was doing so much better now and afternoons after Nora returns from school was spent playing games or watching movies, it gave him so much joy seeing his sisters happy and having the best of life. Their life has been so much better in recent days than he can ever imagine, they woke up when they want to and food is ready for them, not just any kind of food but the best kind, made by a well-trained chef, what more, Nathan didn’t have to worry about college for the both of his sisters because as soon as he could, he went to the bank and deposited huge sums into two accounts for Nel and Nora, that will see them through college and any other education they will like to get, not to mention Gianni had given both of the girls their personal cards that they could u
