"No one has asked to buy Kings Distributions," Marcello said slowly while watching his boss's expression, scared to anger him because he has been quite sensitive to any matter concerning Kings Distributions. Lucian chuckled as he rubbed his chin without sparing Marcello a glance. After he had left the meeting with Damian, he had asked to see Marcello to discuss issues regarding Kings Distributions. But now, he couldn't help but think about Damian's offer. It now dawned on him how cunning Damian had become. To think, he tried to play with him.

"Boss," Marcello started again.

"Boss," he tried once more.

"Kings Air and Shipping," Lucian said suddenly, snapping out of his thoughts and turning his gaze to Marcello.

"How is the revenue these days?" Lucian asked with a serious look.

"That—" Marcello hesitated as he scratched his head.

"Go on. Tell me," Lucian said, resting back in the chair, his gaze fixed on Marcello, prompting him to continue. "We get half of our usual revenue," Marcello f

    "Mr. Santoro," Arya gasped in surprise, wide-eyed as she stared at Damian, whose eyes were fixed on Ravenna. Ravenna didn't move, shock evident on her face."I was looking everywhere for you," Damian removed his hand from her shoulder and brushed strands of hair away from her face, gazing at her lovingly."What the—" Ravenna tried to say something, but Damian beat her to it."Are you going to scold me for finding you too late?" He pouted, and Ravenna's eyes widened even more. What the hell is Damian doing?"Are—Are you two dating?" Arya couldn't help but ask, staring at them in shock.Damian turned to look at her. "Us?" He asked with a surprised look, as if it were no news. "Well, not yet. You see, I've been trying to woo Ravenna, and she has been so stubborn," Damian said with a smile, glancing from one girl to another, noting their expressions.He took Ravenna's hand, turned to look at her, and then back at them. "Are you her friends?" He asked with a smile as Bella nodded, because

    "Young master!" Roberto exclaimed in agony, frustrated by Damian's silence."Could you help me get Mrs. Marie to send a cup of coffee to my study, please?" Damian turned his gaze to Elena, who stared at him in shock. She looked from Damian to a frustrated Roberto as they both watched him stand up and walk away without sparing either of them a glance."The world doesn't revolve around you, Mr. Santoro!" Roberto shouted after him, trying to provoke a response, but it was futile."What the hell is he thinking?" Roberto turned to Elena in frustration.She shook her head, walked over to Roberto, and patted him on his back. "We'll be fine," she smiled and walked away."Even you too!" he shouted in utter confusion as he watched her leave. "No one takes me seriously anymore," he muttered and cupped his face.Meanwhile, Elena took it upon herself to make coffee for Damian and send it to his study. When he gave her permission to come in after she knocked, Elena saw him standing by the window, a

    Lucian clapped his hands continuously as Ravenna walked through the door the next day after their talk. "You've outdone yourself, Ravenna!" He laughed out loud as his daughter, with a smirk on her face, walked towards her father, who had his hands opened for her to come into his embrace."You look quite happy, Daddy. Happy with the result of my plan?" She smiled as she freed herself and walked over to the seat opposite Lucian's and sat down."Why wouldn't I? I have such a beautiful and intelligent daughter." He laughed out loud again as Ravenna returned the smile."Let's see how Damian will tackle this," Lucian muttered with a wide smile."With me pregnant with his child all over the net? I'm not sure," Ravenna smacked her lips and crossed her legs."He must have been shocked." Ravenna looked up to her dad."Yeah, he would. Apart from that, people are rushing over to buy Kings Distributions since morning. We have been receiving countless calls; Kings Group stocks skyrocketed in a few

    "We're here, Mr. Santoro," the driver said when he pulled up in front of the King's Mansion. Damian felt his sweaty palm as he found it hard to turn to his side to look at Ravenna, who sat quietly beside him."I—" When Damian was about to speak, Ravenna opened the door and got off quickly. Damian sighed as he got off too and rushed towards her before she opened the door."Ravenna," he called coolly as she swung around to meet his gaze."What is it?" She asked impatiently. She had been unusually quiet after the test results came out at the hospital. So was he; what was he supposed to say?He was so sure that his ex-wife, who had cheated on him, was lying, but then it turned out to be true."Is it mine or Carlos'?" Damian asked, still holding her arms."Do the bloody calculation yourself." She freed her hand and stomped away quickly."Damn it!" Damian hit his leg on the tire of the limousine as he shuddered with anger. How could this be happening? In quick strides, he walked into the li

    "What?" Ravenna asked, almost in a whisper. "I-""I didn't say that for you to argue, Ravenna," Lucian turned away from her, unable to look her in the eyes, as he noticed the pain in her expression."It is also my child! You can't do this!" She spat angrily at him."And also that bastard's!" Lucian swung around to face Ravenna, who scoffed. "I don't care what you say, Daddy. I am having this baby," she declared with determination."Wow," Lucian smiled. "Is this the plan, yeah? To use this baby to get back with him, ugh? You slept with him secretly while pretending to be on my side?" Lucian asked."What? No!" Ravenna refuted immediately."Then why did you make all those fusses, saying you're pregnant? Is playing with me fun?" Lucian asked."I didn't even know I was pregnant! It was a cryptic pregnancy! Why are you pointing fingers at me when I am innocent?" Ravenna challenged. Lucian watched her for a while, unsure of what to say next."I don't want to have anything to do with Damian.

    "You now sound like a lunatic," Damian seethed at him as Lucian laughed out loud."Damian, Damian, Damian, you must be a fool to think I would let you leave with my grandchild just like that," Lucian said as Ravenna raised her head to look at him quickly. What did she just hear? His grandchild? As of when?"What do you mean?" Damian had a smile on his face as it seemed it was his way of calming his growing anger towards Lucian."The child can be yours and cannot be yours; it all depends on you, Damian," Lucian said with a straight face as Damian's brow creased in confusion. It then straightened when he realized what Lucian was pushing at."You want to make a deal with me on my own child?" Damian asked with incredulous laughter."Bingo!" Lucian shouted happily. "You know what I like about Domenico Santoro is the fact that he is quite smart, you see."Damian scoffed as he watched him in disbelief. "Are you that desperate?" He asked as Lucian watched him with a smirk. "Do you even realiz

    When Ravenna walked into the car where Damian was waiting, he turned to look at her and then back forward.“What is it?” Ravenna asked with a straight face as she fixed her gaze on him. She had just realized how particularly handsome he looked that morning. He wasn't wearing his usual tough billionaire attire, but rather that of a biker, one who could make ladies swoon.“You didn't bring anything?” He asked without sparing her a glance after instructing the chauffeur to drive.“Do I need to?” She asked as Damian turned to look at her. “Of course, you could spare some change to get me a new wardrobe filled with expensive clothes for the mother of your child to be,” she said with a smile. “Plus, you gave me limited time; I couldn’t dare to anger the almighty Domenico Santoro.”Damian stared at her, wondering how her expression had changed from what he had seen earlier to now.“Don't get cheeky or entertain any silly ideas. Once you give birth to my child, he stays with me, and you…” He

    "I still don't feel like I look like the mother of the heir to Santoro's Group wealth," Ravenna straightened her navy blue dress that clung to her body like a second skin as they walked towards the waiting limousine at the mansion."Stop bickering, Ravenna. You chose that outfit yourself. The one it took you forever to choose," Damian hissed as he watched her enter the limousine before he did."And stop getting ideas. I'm warning you. I don't like it when people like you get cheesy," Damian said sternly at her as she pouted."If you keep commanding me like that, I'll just lose the baby before it is born!" She sneered, but Damian ignored her, folded his arms, and looked out of the window as the car drove through the early morning streets of Venice.Was he crazy? Agreeing to Ravenna's wishes and willingly bending to her whims? No, he wasn't, he tried to assure himself as he remembered the dissatisfied look on Elena's and Roberto's faces when Ravenna walked in on them."We're here, young

    "In five minutes, some people will come over to your place. Old friends of mine. I might call them," Damian said as he paced majestically in his study, feeling extremely proud of himself."You might be wondering what friends I have…" Damian paused, as if expecting a response."Or maybe you already know them?" Damian asked with a raised brow."The Tigers," Damian said in a grim tone. "They've been all over the city, looking for you, dear uncle," he said, folding his arms."You…" Valentine tried to steady his shaky hands as beads of sweat formed on his forehead."Don't," Damian interrupted. "It's just five minutes," he said again. "Are you sure you want to waste your precious time battling words with me, or is saving your life more important?""How would you know who The Tigers are? You bastard!" Valentine exclaimed."Hmmm… let me think. I did a small background research on you in the past, which didn't give me much result.

Leonardo was stunned for a second, but his survival instinct kicked in instantly.At this point, Valentine was very dangerous, and getting out of this house should be his main priority.“What did you hear?” Valentine asked, cutting into Leonardo’s thoughts, who forced a smile.“You are mistaken, Valentine,” Leonardo began, shaking his head.“I came here to talk,” he said again as both men's gazes remained intent on each other.“You a

    As the laughing subsided, she stared at Amiri who just watched her.“Fuck you Amiri!” She spat out as Amiri just watched her. Her laughing was out of spite.It didn’t take another second when the sound of the police siren filled the whole place as Ravenna made to turn around to look back, but stopped, probably because of her pride.She turned to look at Amiri, her eyes bloodshot with rage while Amiri stared at her lazily.“You shouldn’t be outside here, Ravenna. Living with normal people.” Amiri said as the sound of the policemen steps coming towards them increased to show how close they were.“You are dangerous to humanity.” Amiri completed as Ravenna scoffed. “And you call yourself a saint by doing this one thing?” She asked with an angry look.“You are bloody criminal, you bastard!” She shrieked angrily as the police finally got to them.“I am inspector Morales and you are under arrest for the…..”The words trailed off in Ravenna’s head as she stared angrily at Amiri, and as her ey

    Amiri wasn’t sure of what to say. He just stared blankly at her.“What did you do to Paulo?” He could only manage to ask as Ravenna gave him a scrutinizing look as if that would determine if she would tell him anything or not.“You should ask what I would do to him if you don’t comply to my commands right now.” She said as Amiri’s fist clenched.“You still look as if I am lying to you.” She said with a pout. “You still think I don’t have Amiri, ugh?” She raised a brow and tuttered.“Foolish.” She snorted. “Swerville Day school. Finish his lessons by 12 noon.

But Amiri knew better. “Stop playing the victim’s game. You’re in front of the man you killed. Have some respect for this dead, Ravenna.” He shove her hand away from his chest as her hand dangled by her side as if she had no control over it.“As if you care.” She stared at him with angry gaze.She bent her head to

    “I can’t believe this.” Amiri staggered back, unconsciously locating a sofa behind him and sitting down. His hand slowly moved to hold his face, the news making his whole body shudder, hating how foolish he looked.“It’s okay if you feel embarrassed,” Damian said nonchalantly as Amiri raised his head to look at him in an uneasy manner.“Sorry,” he feigned a smile. “I didn’t mean it that way,” he added as Amiri sighed, smacking his lips together, looking away to avoid revealing how disgruntled he felt to Damian.“So?”Amiri raised his head to look at him. “What? You want me to pay back?” He asked as Damian watched him with an amused look.“What?” Amiri asked, his apprehension growing by the minute. He always portrayed himself to everyone as this strong-hearted person, deeply revered in the underground world. But this man knew how to effortlessly get to him, making some part of his life seem to almost revolve around him.“You must think so lowly of me,” Damian said with a soothing tone,
