As Milan stepped into the room Mr.Martin decided to throw their celebration party, he immediately regretted ever coming.There was music, cake and all sorts of food on the table and most of all women who surrounded Mr.Martin, served food, sang and even played the harp. Milan adjusted his tie and let out a frustrated sigh. When Mr.Martin said they will celebrate, Milan wasn't expecting him to go wild with food and drinks and women. Most of all, he wasn't even expecting a cake which was ten layers when he counted it.The way the hall was designed, you would think it was someone's birthday."Mr.Reyes!!"Mr.Martin yelled in enthusiasm once he saw Milan at the door who was hesitating if he should stay or leave.Mr.Martin rushed over to Milan and gave hun a big hug which Milan didn't return out of shock. Mr.Martin released Milan and chuckled. "Ahh you're looking very sharp today Mr.Reyes"Milan sent Mr.Martin a subtle smile."Thank you and I can say the same for you Mr.Martin. You seem t
Milan steps down from his car and makes his way into his company with annoyance. Daniel just had a way of stirring up his emotions. As Milan walks down the hall, he spots Daniel at Sofi's desk talking to her. Sofia looked uncomfortable as she spoke to him as well. "Sofia"Milan said, catching her attention. Sofia's eyes brightened up in relief, which causes Daniel to turn towards Milan. Milan was a bit taken aback when he looked at Daniel's dishevelled look. He had eye bags underneath his eyes, and he looked like he had lost weight. The smell of alcohol oozing from him could make anyone nauseous. "Milan Reyes!"Daniel said with a look of relief."I'm really glad you decided to come"Milan doesn't fail to glare at him."Why are you here? What do you want? Speak up now, or you'll be thrown out by security. "Milan said impatiently. Daniel walked up to him slowly with a look of remorse."Please. There is something I want to talk to you about"Milan took two steps back from Daniel,
"But we are brothers"Daniel argues only annoying Milan further."You may leave now. I'll contact you after I confirm all that you've said"Milan said pointing at the door for Daniel to leaveDaniel, still on his knees frowns a bit before getting off his knees."Again. I'm sorry for everything"Milan could hear the insincerity in Daniel's voice but he decided to ignore it.Daniel gets up his feet slowly and dusts his knees before leaving. He takes one last look at Milan before he shuts the door.Milan lets out a long sigh he didn't know he had been holding once Daniel had left. Milan picked up his phone and dialed his P.I's number.The line rang twice before Mark responded. "Hello Boss. What can I do for ya?"Milan taped his fingers on his table before speaking."We need to meet tommorow"…"It's confirmed. You guys are actually stepbrothers"Milan felt the throw the glass of cocktail in his hand on the wall. "What did you say?!"Milan asked in disbelief gripping the bottom of his
Daniel lets out a chuckle."Well, isn't it obvious? I came to see my brother. "Milan glared at Daniel."I've told you to stop calling me that. I'm not even your blood brother. "Milan scolds through gritted teeth."Why did you come all the way to my house? You know I can throw you out. "Milan says strictly, causing a nervous chuckle from Daniel.Daniel puts up his hands in surrender."Whoa. I promise I didn't come to look for any trouble. I mean it when I said I just came to see you. I mean besides…"Daniel gets up from the sofa and looks around the house."...This house is freaking huge. Maybe I was just curious to see where my stepbrother lived. "Daniel said, adding a harmless shrug. "How did you know I lived here?"Milan wasn't going to give up his questions. It was his day off, and he just wanted to rest and have peace of mind, but Daniel was already ruining it with his presence."It wasn't that difficult. I mean, it's not like you live in a jungle. "Daniel said, adding a bri
Milan couldn't understand why he didn't feel any fear as he drove with Daniel to their unknown destination. Milan couldn't remember the last time he was ever afraid. If he could remember, then it would be when he was still being treated like a slave under Ella. He would fear Ella getting back home, and the dinner he prepared wasn't fully ready yet, or he hadn't completed all the horrendous chores she had dumped on him before she left for work.Or the teacup he broke that belonged to Ella's mother.Milan wasn't afraid anymore. Especially not of Daniel anymore."Okay. We're finally here!"Daniel exclaimed as the car came to a halt before he stepped down from the back seat without waiting for the driver to open the door for him.Milan, still seated at the back of the car, looked at the small house in front of them. Milan wondered who the house belonged to and why Daniel had brought him there. The door was opened for him by Daniel himself, who beat his bodyguard to it. Daniel stood ho
Aunt Pamela was rushed to the hospital. Daniel sits by her bedside appearing sorrowful while Milan just stands next to him staring at his Aunt laying on the bed helplessly.Milan didn't expect that was the way he would meet his aunt and for some reason he felt was concerned if she was going to die. Milan had watched his father die right in his face the first day he had met and the first day he met his Aunt, she had passed out.Milan only hoped that she wouldn't die just on the day he met her. Milan hadn't said a word to Daniel ever since they had rushed his Aunt to the hospital. Daniel kept a pained expression as he looked at his Aunt. For some reason, he also looked angry. Daniel stood up with a dull look on his face."I'm going to talk to the Doctor"Daniel stated before he proceeded to walk towards the door. Milan still standing with his two hands in his pocket didn't turn around to look at Daniel when he asked."Did you know she was unwell?"Daniel nods not looking at Milan be
Milan was not looking forward to the meeting with the board of directors when he walked into Royals Modelling company that morningMilan didn't know what they wanted from him, but he was going to find out. Milan knocked on the large door twice before a 'come in' is said by one of the directors. Milan adjusts his tie before twisting the knob of the door handle and walking into the office. The board of directors all gathered on a round table talking amongst themselves. When they see Milan, they all keep silent. They were all a bunch of men looking like they were in their 30s and 40', and they eyed Milan like he was a piece of meat. " Milan Reyes. Welcome. Take a sea. t"One of the directors sai, and Milan took a seat at the head of the table while the rest of them looked at him, some murmuring to themselves. Milan cleared his throat, grabbing their attention."I suppose you have a reason for summoning me?"One of the directors cleared his throat and leaned forward, sending Milan
Ella looked like she had just seen a ghost as she stared at Milan. Milan, who was already in a bad mood due to the directors, ended up sending her a cold look.Ella sent him a small smile as the models passed by."Goodmorning sir"Ella said, and Milan was a bit surprised by her decent tone. If anything, Ella looked happy that morning that it made Milan curious. Even though her phone has fallen on the ground and might have cracked, Ella didn't look displeased with Milan at all. "What is so good about the morning?"Milan asks in a cold tone before walking past her like she is invisible. For a minute, a lot of thoughts ran through Milans head as he wondered back on Ella's expression. Milan wanted to know what was making hee do joyful. After all, from what he had heard from Daniel the other day, they had broken up. Milan didn't like seeing that smile on Ella's face at all, and he was determined to wipe it off. Milan walked into Daniel's previous office and crossed his legs on the tab
