"How are things going with the supplier contest?" Lucas asked as he walked to the garage with Mike."Well, let's just say I have more than enough on my plate at the moment." He replied absent mindedly."That stressful huh?""Very." He turned his phone to Lucas to show him he was still busy with it. "It sure would help if I had like…I don't know, maybe an assistant?""I've been thinking about that too. Why don't you ask Becky and Charlie to work with you?""Ask?" Knowing the kind of person Becky was, she would never do anything unless it was an order."You can tell them I assigned them to help you with the contest.""Thank you. I really need all the help I can get.""I'm sorry I got you into all this mess." "It's my job," Mike and Grover were literally the same thing, they were always too modest. "…and Ivy's idea was really nice. Among the suppliers list, I've noticed some that aren't really in the mainstream but they have refreshing ideas.""That's good news. Don't worry, the hospita

"Mother, I don't think I'm of the same mind with you on this. Your plan is like hanging from a thread, I don't think I'll work out the way you want it to.""Don't be a doubting thomas Peter. It's going to go well. We won't tell anyone, and all preparations will be made in holes and corners.""Won't we tell Ivy?, I mean we can't exclude her from our arrangements.""Do you think she's going to agree with us? You know how stubborn your sister is, we have no other choice.""But mother–""That's enough buts! Are you coming with me or not?""I can't leave you by yourself.""That's my boy, I know I can always count on you."★★★"Did you receive the payment?""Yes sir, you're very gracious sir.""Just keep doing your job, and your payment will always be on time.""Thank you sir.""So, what is that woman up to now?""I don't think she has any new plan for now.""Are you sure? If I find out from somewhere else that she is up to something, you'll pay dearly for it. So think hard.""Well, I don't

"Andreas, you really have to help me out here.""Help you out? What am I supposed to do?""Don't do this to me. Keep in mind, our long lasting relationship. We've known each other for quite some time now.""Did you consider that time when you went behind my back looking for another suitor for Ivy?""Andreas, don't do that. Okay I am sorry, it was wrong of me to do something like that but please, if you can help me out now, then you can have Ivy.""I'm not a fool Mrs Mochi, Ivy doesn't listen to you and it's obvious.""I'll talk to her, I'll do anything Andreas. Just help me out this once.""There's nothing you can do, I know I can't be with Ivy. Even a fool would have figured that out by now.""I'm willing to do anything Andreas, I'm in a tight spot here.""I'll think about it, but you have nothing to offer me so if agree to help you, it'll be from the goodness of my heart.""Thank you—""I said if, meaning I haven't decided yet. I'll give you a call when I do.""Andreas—""That'll be
The Billionaire Son-in-law 74. Andreas's Return.
Lucas had been trying to reason with Ric but he refused to see reason. He had valuable info that could send Platana away, Lucas was certain of it…he just didn't want to help. And the worst part of it was that he wasn't trying to protect his brother, he just didn't want to get involved because he wasn't affected.He had begged Tracy to try to get him on their side and she said she would try but she wasn't promising anything.Platana had been oddly quiet, probably cooking up some new scheme. He just hoped they would be able to handle whatever he did next.★★★Lucas and Ivy sat in her parent's living room. Blanche had called for an emergency meeting and this time, Ivy's dad was present.They all sat patiently, relating with each other like strangers. Ivy's dad had been extra cold to him since the incident with Richmond, and Peter was cold as well, but he wasn't surprised, Peter had always been his mother's entourage.After waiting for almost ten minutes, Lucas was starting to get impatie

"How are things going with the suppliers contest?" He hadn't really had the time to supervise the project because of all that was happening. Sometimes, he wished he could just take a break from work totally, and focus all his time on protecting his family."It's moving quite faster than I had expected. So far we've been able to cut the list down to twenty suppliers and we're still working on it.""Okay, let me know how things progress.""I'll giwe you an update again before the end of the day.""Alright thanks."His work had been reduced by half thanks to Mike. Without him doing most of the work, Lucas wasn't sure if he would be able to handle it all by himself. He was definitely going to give him a compensation once all this was over.Detective Jones had assured him that his investigation was going rather well and that he would have positive results by the end of the week, and that was the good news Lucas liked to hear.Tracy hadn't called him since and he didn't want to call her so

"Calm down Tracy, I know how you feel. Believe me, but crying isn't going to solve anything." Ivy tried to calm Tracy down because she had been crying like crazy.She said that the officer in charge said he would be sentenced to jail unless we find evidence to prove her claims."Where am I supposed to get evidence? It's not like I can get Marco to confess that he was behind it.""We'll figure something out, I promise you." Lucas was surprised Ivy was okay with letting Tracy into their house, he thought she would still be angry about the court issue but she related with her like it never even happened."Tracy, where are they keeping Ric?" It would be better if he was at the station where detective Jones worked, then it would be easier to get info from him."The station at forte street." She answered mid sobs."Okay, I'll go over there and talk to him. Ivy, please stay with her.""Okay, don't stay out late.""I won't."★★★He called detective Jones on his way and they both went to see R

Once again, they were all gathered in the home of the Mochis. The only difference was that it was Milo who had called for a meeting this time.Ivy didn't want to attend, he was the one who convinced her that they should. He wanted to hear what his father in law had to say, even though he already knew he wasn't going to like it."I don't intend to take much of your time." He started with his usual boring expression on his face. "My wife and I were discussing and she made me realize something. This man here," he pointed to Andreas who had a broad grin on his face. "Mr Andreas Peres, truly loves my daughter." Lucas almost scoffed as Milo spoke, definitely their meeting would be centred around him. No wonder he was seated so comfortably, he was the star of the show."It's not that I'm completely unaware of his feelings towards Ivy, but she made me understand somethings that I didn't know. She made me understand all the trouble he's going through to get us out of this mess we're in.He has

All through the drive home, Ivy didn't say a word and Lucas knew she was still disturbed by the meeting they had. He had to admit, even he was bothered, he had never seen Milo that angry before. Sure they hadn't exactly been buddies but he always just acted like Lucas never existed. All the tension was because of Platana, if Ivy's parents were certaim that Platana was under control, Lucas was sure they wouldn't go to all these lengths. He really hoped detective Jones's investigation would yield positive results…and soon."Hey Ivy, what would you want for lunch?" He asked, trying to cheer her up."I don't know. Whwt do you want?""Hmm…how about we go for ice cream?""For lunch?" She smiled as she stared up at him."Yeah. I'm suddenly craving for vanilla ice cream, should we get some?"Her face lit up and soon the usual sweet smile that Lucas fell in love with had brightened up her face. "Should we?" She asked, grinning from ear to ear like a little girl."Why not?" He was glad to se
