Nathan woke up the next morning to his phone ringing. It was Sunday so he wasn’t expecting to be a call that was business related. He took the call without checking who it was. “Hello?”He yawned, still feeling sleepy because he didn’t get that much sleep the previous night. He peeped the clock on the wall, it was almost afternoon which meant he had overslept. Not like he overslept, he just didn’t sleep on time and must have slept through the alarm because of how tired he had been. “Good morning, I am sorry for waking you up even though it is Sunday, I needed to tell you something that couldn’t wait,”His lawyer’s voice echoed over the phone. Nathan sat up on the bed, wondering what it was that needed to be said that he was calling so early. He checked the time again and reminded himself that it wasn’t early. He hoped nothing was wrong with his recent purchase, even though he had wanted to visit the hotel after the purchase, he couldn’t make out time to do it yet and was hoping to g
Nathan spent the next three months getting used to his role as the CEO of Ulmer holdings and also making sure to finish his studies and graduate. Not to mention working on his personal acquisition, so far, he has been able to get two more buildings within Sydney and now he was looking into getting one outside of the country. His hope is to build a chain of hotels. He has made so much progress in the space of three months. He wrote his finals a week ago and was looking forward to his results. He knew he did well so he wasn’t bothered. He also got a lot closer to Sebastian, moving into the mansion turned out to be one of the best decisions he made, not just him but his sisters too loved living in the mansion and they loved Sebastian.Seb was doing well so far and his doctors were hopeful that he would stay for a couple of years more, Nathan hoped that was the case. He wanted Sebastian for a long time.Today was a day Nathan has been looking forward to for months now. It took him months
Nathan didn’t need to wait long for Pedro to show up in his office because the madman came running about an hour after the mail was sent. He must have stopped at his office first and also got the physical copy from his secretary because he badged into his office holding the paper in his hand. “Don’t worry, I will handle this,”He told his secretary who had followed Pedro in. He was fuming. “What the hell does this mean? Have you lost your mind?”Pedro yelled at Nathan and threw the paper at him. Nathan picked it up and straightened it, he dropped it on the table, and smirked at Pedro. “What does it look like to you, Pedro? you can read right?”He asked in a calm voice, he knew that would piss Pedro off even more. That was what he wanted, he wanted him to be so mad that he would not be able to control himself that way, Nathan could get the satisfaction of leading him out of the company in the most humiliating way. “You are out of your mind, who do you think you are and why do you t
Pedro had so many chances to change, Nathan would never have had a problem with him being in the company if he was a true businessman who was interested in the growth of the company. In fact, he would have happily worked with Pedro if he had been a just man but he wasn’t and he wasn’t ready to change his way. He just wanted to get everything Sebastian owns just to ruin it and Nathan refused to let him do that. Even Alec clocked his tea and warned Nathan not to keep him around the company for long as that would ruin the company’s image. Well, he overused his chances and now he was out never to return.Nathan knew better than to just send Pedro away, he needed to make sure he wasn’t going to find a way to come back by asking Sebastian to put him back in the company so as soon as the madman left his office, he got his phone out and called his dad. It was better to inform him that Pedro was on the way than to have Pedro catch the old man off guard and lie his way back into the company.“
Nathan drove at a speed he had never driven before, his heart beating loudly against his chest. He shouldn’t have allowed Pedro to go over to the mansion. He should have thought of Sebastian’s health. Of course, Pedro won’t know when to stop, the man was the devil, and he didn’t care about anyone else but himself. Nathan prayed for his sake that nothing would happen to Sebastian because he would not let him walk away alive. He already lost one parent to death because of some loser he wasn’t about to lose another. Nathan drove into the mansion and hurriedly parked his car. He ran out of the car without locking it and ran all the way inside. “Nurse Sheila?”He called out the name of the nurse who took care of his father. “Sir,”She came running to him when she saw him. “Where is my dad? How is he?”Nathan asked, looking around for the old man. “Calm down. His doctors are with him right now, I called them before I called you,”The nurse said. Nathan walked by her towards his room bu
“Don’t try to walk away from me, I am still talking to you,”Pedro let out, dragging his shirt, Nathan gave up trying to control himself, he turned around and punched Pedro's hand in the face. He staggered back. Nathan straightened his shirt. Pedro clearly didn’t expect him to actually punch him because he stood holding his face where the punch had landed. “You dared to hit me? You, sick little bastard?”He let out, charging towards him. Nathan waited for him to get near him before pushing hard, he watched him stagger back and followed him, landing another punch against his nose. He saw blood and didn’t stop, he punched him again before dragging him up. He dragged him out of the living room with Pedro asking him to stop. Nathan didn’t listen. He was done listening to whatever Pedro had to say. The man had no place in his father’s mansion and it was time to put an end to his ability to visit the mansion. He didn’t stop until he was outside the house and he pushed him to the ground onc
Nathan walked back to the entrance of Sebastian’s room and waited outside, he couldn’t stay calm because he was scared and anxious about what would happen to Sebastian. He didn’t want anything to happen to him, he blamed himself for letting Pedro come to the house. there was no reason to have let him come to see Pedro when it would not have made him change his mind. He should have sent Pedro away from the office and prevented him from being able to see Sebastian. The way things were going, Pedro might still end up in jail if he kept going the way he did. Even Sebastian won’t be able to talk him out of it if Nathan decides to overlook the fact that he was family and deal with him. He already overused the privilege of being Sebastian’s cousin. That wasn’t his main focus now though. He needed to know if his father would be okay. “Please be okay,”He prayed and waited patiently for the doctor to come out. About fifteen minutes later, the door to his room finally opened and the doctor ste
Nathan wondered if Sebastian hit his head and lost his mind when he fell because why else would he be talking about wanting him to marry Gianni? It never crossed his mind that he would ask him for something like that, marrying Gianni never crossed his mind because he knew if he ever married Gianni., it would create attention that he wasn’t sure he was ready for because she used to be married to his dad even though the marriage was only on paper, no one else knew that and people won’t even want to believe it. He loves Gianni but marrying her felt like some impossible shits. “Dad? Did you hit your head when you fell down? Why would you want me to marry your ex-wife?” Nathan questioned. He really didn’t like addressing Gia as Sebastian’s ex-wife. “Our marriage was only on paper and you both get along pretty well. I thought you loved her,”“I do, okay? I am not going to deny that fact but I never thought of marrying her, not even to date her. All I want is for us to be on good terms ag
