The next day was a Sunday but that didn’t stop Nathan from making a money move, he took his bath to help freshen his mood, had breakfast with his sisters, and went back to his room, he needed to speak with someone, so he got out his phone and dialed the number of a legal representative that he had spoken to before, he waited for the man to take his call. He got his contact when he met him a couple of weeks ago, at that time, he didn’t think he would need a legal representative soon but now he did and he was thankful he did. Now all he needed was for him to take his call so that they could arrange to meet as he didn’t want to do anything without first having legal backing. “Hello? This is Marcus speaking, who am I on to?”The man asked over the phone. Nathan almost thought he wouldn’t take the call because it was the weekend. “HI, my name is Nathan, we spoke about a week or two ago and I told you that I would reach out to you once I am ready,” Nathan disclosed. “Yeah, Nathan, I rem
“I have been ignoring you all day, can’t you take that as a hint and leave me alone?”Nathan asked. The only reason he took the call was to make sure he wasn’t continuously calling because he noticed that he made a big purchase. “I can’t stop calling you until you agree to come see me,”He told him. Okay, his purchase had nothing to do with why he was calling, for all he knew, the old man had no link to his account. The thought of that gave him some kind of peace. He could buy everything and pay for the things he needed to start his first hotel. “Fine, I will come see you when I have the chance.” He promised. He wasn’t busy but he didn’t want to give the old man a chance to think that he could easily be called upon and would show up. “That’s good to hear,”The old man responded and finally hung up. Nathan dropped the phone and smiled when he remembered what he had achieved that day. He wanted to at least tell someone about it but at the same time, he knew it was too early to let a
The call for him to resume work came the next morning, he expected it to come early so when he got the call, he wasn’t surprised but what did shock him was that they moved him to a very junior team, an office with a lot of people, part of the marketing department but a very junior part of it, not that it made him any less eager to work, in fact, it made him more ready to work, he was going to prove himself to Sebastian again while working hard to build his own brand. Before he left for work, he spoke to his lawyer and the contractor that he hired to take care of the renovation of the building, initially, he wanted to just tear the whole place but realized the hotel structure was still in shape and he just needed to invest in changing things and it would be good to go for a first hotel; he already picked out a name for the hotel, he was going to name it after his sister, N&N hotel, it sounded cringe and clique but he liked it and wanted to gift his first project to his sisters, he knew
“Are you for real right now? What do you even mean by paper marriage, what does that even stand for?”He knew what a paper marriage was but what he couldn’t understand was why Gianni would sign up for something like that when she could get any man she wanted. She was beautiful, educated, and rich, any man would kill to have her. “Nathan, I can’t go into full details but that’s it, I married Seb, I loved, and I still love him but we were never a real couple, he wanted someone with him, didn’t want to be alone, and at that time, I wanted out of Italy, I just got out of a very draining relationship that did a number to my self-esteem, that’s when I met Seb and he was nice, I figured I could help him, plus my ex was trying to get me back but he backed out when he found out I married,”She explained. Nathan never expected that to be the reason she married. “That’s a whole lot of details that I didn’t know,”Nathan said, not like he was just realizing that he didn’t know much about the wo
Despite his position in the office being limited, Nathan didn’t mind at all, for one, it gave him more time to focus on his own business idea and the people he shared office with were super nice to him, willing to help and give input when he asked. His life in the office was going just fine and his baby project was looking okay, he had a meeting with the people who would do the reconstruction today and that’s what he was going to spend his lunch hour doing. He got out of the elevator and instantly wished he had listened to his instincts and gone to get coffee like he had wanted to. Now he was standing face to face with his number one enemy. Since he resumed work in the office two weeks ago, Nathan had made a point to not encounter Pedro, not like he was scared of him or anything like that, he just didn’t want to deal with him physically and he has been successful until now. The older man stood in front of him and each time he tried to pass by him, he would block his way. Nathan let o
Nathan put whatever happened with Pedro that morning at the back of his mind, the last thing he wanted was to let him in his head when he had better things to do with his time. He did his usual work, attended a team meeting and after that, it was his lunch break. He had to postpone his meeting with the contractor because he had some errands that he had to run in the office that he couldn’t postpone. “Thank you for choosing us for this, I promise you that you won’t regret it,”Nathan said to the client whom he had come to see. The meet-up went better than he had thought. When his superior had called him and told him to go see the client, he had been skeptical about going as he didn’t want the client to lose interest because of him. Turns out, he had nothing to worry about because she was ready to work with them. “No, I should thank you for explaining things so well and being such a gentleman. It is a good thing that they said yes when I asked for you,”She said; Nathan looked at her
“What I am saying is, I can help you, Pedro hasn’t changed much, aside from the fact that he blew up after scamming a lot more people, I won’t let him win this time,”She said in a firm voice. “Thank you for reaching out to me ma’am, it means a lot,”Nathan told her. He might not know when or how he would need her help yet but he was sure the time would come. “There is no need for thank you, I am only doing it to get some kind of personal closure, I don’t mean that I am using you for that, what I mean is that I will get a lot of joy if Pedro fails in his plans.”She told him and he nodded. “Still I want to say thank you, I will be sure to let you know when I need your help, can I have your contact please?”He asked politely, this was even though she looked young, was way older, and could easily have given birth to him, how she had a sister younger than him kind of baffled him but he didn’t want to be nosy, if it pricked his interest enough, he would ask Grace. She gave him her cont
“You are scared for nothing Nathan, that DNA result isn’t going to be a problem, let him do it a hundred times and he will keep getting the same result, once the result is out, he will know just what kind of clown Pedro is,”Gianni answered. She always sounded so sure about the whole DNA thing; it was as if he was the only one always worried about it. “You sound so sure, I am telling you that he used a different doctor and that man doesn’t look like he can even be bought over, when I asked for his contact, he brutally refused; stating that he had no business with me, that was harsh and then he just left like that,”Nathan explained, remembering how the doctor had looked at him as if he was some kind of sinner. “Why don’t you believe me when I tell you that there is nothing to worry about, everything is taken care of already and nothing will change, you are his son and that’s finally,”Gianni told him confidently. “I wish I could have your kind of confidence, Gia but I can’t, I have
