Chapter 5

Irish Wright, the youngest daughter of the Wright family who was once matched with Sebastian but Sebastian always rejected her. Although Sebastian rejected her, she never gave up on getting his attention. At least Irish got the support to be with Sebastian, so she is still Sebastian's fiancée while the Wright family and Bellucci are still planning their wedding.

"Wow, we really are soul mates, honey. We're wearing the same color clothes, we have the same good taste!" she babbled endlessly.

Suzzane poked the back of Irish's hand with one finger, "Actually that tuxedo was my choice, so it's a shame you don't have the same taste as my brother."

Irish looked at Suzzane lazily, why was this little girl always near Sebastian and disturbing the romantic moment that Irish was trying to build with Sebastian.

While the two women were busy grumbling at each other, Sebastian took the opportunity to escape from them and hide on the second floor balcony of the mansion. He can finally breathe in some fresh air, after all this time all he can breathe in is the scent of women's perfume that mixes together and makes him nauseous. From this balcony Sebastian saw a procession of three cars heading towards the mansion, Sebastian sharpened his vision to see who the late arrival was. Sebastian sees a small silver logo on the front end of the car in the shape of a sword and eagle wings, Sebastian immediately returns to the party hall to find his dad's whereabouts because soon they will have the most hated guest in the Bellucci family.

Damian Clair comes to this party uninvited, his goal is definitely not to welcome Sebastian's arrival but to ensure that Sebastian is still alive. But he wouldn't do it openly, he didn't want his reputation to get worse because he kept making trouble with the Bellucci family.

Sebastian was just about to approach Andreas, but it turned out that Andreas had already welcomed them. From four meters away, Sebastian could see Damian's vengeance burning in his eyes. Andreas backed away slowly when his son gave him the code to hand Damian over to him, opting to join the other colleagues and let Sebastian handle Damian. At least he had armed Sebastian in case Damian messed up at this party.

Sebastian approached him, extending his hand to his nemesis. "Welcome Damian Clair,"

Damian was silent for a moment but finally accepted Sebastian's hand with a forced smile. "I'm glad you're back, Sebastian Bellucci. I hope we can play around again like three years ago."

Sebastian only smiled slightly, then withdrew his hand quickly from Damian. Behind Damian, a young man seemed to be looking at Suzzane with an intense gaze full of longing, he was Isaac, Damian's youngest brother who was Suzzanne's first love and vice versa. But their love story did not go well, Dimitri strongly rejected Isaac's relationship with Suzzane. Dimitri has matched his son with the daughter of a conglomerate from another country, which is what makes Suzzane hate the Clair family even though Isaac is her first love.

After a brief welcome from Sebastian, Damian handed Sebastian a bottle of the Clair family's expensive wine as an appetizer to their special meet. The party atmosphere was now quite tense, with the two heirs of the feuding conglomerate families joined at the same table. One hand held a glass of wine in each of theirs, while the other was ready to draw the weapon tucked under their tuxedos.

"Please drink it Sebastian, it's an exclusive wine collection belonging to the Clair family and the taste is definitely very authentic."

"Really? Then please prove it, in case you're just bragging." Sebastian said.

"Are you afraid I'm just bragging or are you actually afraid I'm poisoning you Sebastian?" Damian asked with one eyebrow raised.

Sebastian gently swirled the wine in his glass, then inhaled the aroma. "Probably both, but a Damian wouldn't dare hurt me in public, would he?"

Damian laughed so hard in response to Sebastian's words that tears came to his eyes, "Well, I'm a bit offended by your words. But playing around with you in front of a crowd seems like it would be interesting, come to my dojo tomorrow afternoon."

Damian got up from his chair and drank the wine he had been holding, after his business was done he took Isaac home and also after this he had to prepare himself to face Sebastian tomorrow. After Damian left, Andreas approached Sebastian along with his colleague from the I country.

"Good evening young master Bellucci, I am Marco Anatolio." he introduced himself.

"Good evening mister Marco, please have a seat."

Marco took a seat near Sebastian, he took out his briefcase containing important objects and also the cooperation documents that had been signed earlier by Andreas.

"Your dad has already signed the contract, young master, are you interested?" he offered, glancing at the object in the suitcase.

Sebastian read the contents of the contract with a faint smile, "How much profit will I get?"

"The safer the distribution, the bigger the profit you will get." Marco said.

"Alright, but you know the rules of the game, right?"

"Of course young master," Marco handed Sebastian his pen, Sebastian happily inked his signature and handed the original copy to Luigi to keep in the safe.

They toasted after Sebastian agreed to the contract, that was what Sebastian loved about these money slaves, they would do anything to build their dynasty of wealth.

Before this misfortune befell them, they were still having dinner with a warm atmosphere and sumptuous food served on the dining table. But now, Emily was at a loss as to how she was going to feed her two daughters tomorrow.

"Thank you mom for making such a nice meal tonight," Isabelle said, she ate her sandwich with gusto while Catherine seemed to have no appetite at all.

"Mom, tomorrow I want to find a job. I think we should move out of this house too, we won't be able to pay this much rent for a house without dad."

"Yes Cathy, I agree with you. Tomorrow I will also try to get a loan to open the florist again," Emily said.

They were just talking about moving house, when suddenly someone came and called Emily while shouting in the yard. It turned out to be the landlord of the house Emily was renting, he was asking for the payment of the rent tonight because he had to use the money for betting. Actually, the reason he was demanding the rent wasn't just for betting, but he knew that the Foster family was now in a mess and they probably wouldn't be able to pay the rent anymore. Unable to stay for a few days, Emily and her two daughters were forced to leave the house with only the most essential items, as they couldn't afford to rent a car to transport all the items in the house. In the darkness of the night, the three women left the house they had lived in for years.
