When the car pulled up, everyone turned their attention to it, eager to see the person inside such a luxurious vehicle. Then, almost like he was an actor filming, Richard slowly opened the door and came out, a hard look on his face. When Florence saw him, she smiled happily. Partly because she was thrilled that her problems would be solved but also because she believed that she had found the perfect suitor for her daughter. "Oh my goodness, who is that?" Someome asked, she wasn't talking to anyone in particular though. "Wow, just look at that face. I would give anything to have someone so perfect in my family." Another woman added. "Talk about perfect son -in -law. Just look at that car, it must be crazy expensive."The people kept admiring Richard, and he just stood there, enjoying the compliments they were showering on him. Florence liked to show that she was associated with big personalities, so as she noticed that people were admiring him, she smiled and waved at him. "Oh R

The next morning, Ciara woke up with an unsettled mind. Even as she prepared for work as the first day of being a director, she could barely concentrate. The reason for this, well, it all started the night before. After they got home from the banquet, Ciara slumped on the couch, she was exhausted– mostly from the drama that happened at the party– and getting a good night's sleep was all that she wanted. Dominic went straight into their bedroom, only to return about five minutes later, looking impossibly sexy. He had taken off his coat, and his shoes, and the first four buttons of his shirt had been unbottoned, revealing the muscled wall of his very masculine chest. Ciara swallowed hard as he approached her and suddenly crouched right in front of her. Her heart began to pound in her chest and she found it hard to breathe properly. Just as he had helped her put her shoes on, Dominic slowly began the task of taking them off, one after the other. Intentionally caressing her legs as h
"Watch my back? What the hell is that supposed to mean dork?! Are you threatening me?"When Dominic said that, his wife turned to look at him and the expression on his face was none like she had ever seen before. He had this confidence, this boldness on his face. Almost like he was the one who made David go bankrupt, and he could do the same thing to George if he wanted to. Of course that was impossible, single handedly making another person and their entire family completely go bankrupt was a feat that was only possible for someone with great power and a deep connection with the government. Even her family combined still wouldn't be able to do half of what happened to David and his family. "I have no reason to threaten you George, I'm just saying. You never know what might happen." He said it so nonchalantly that it almost didn't sound like a threat. "What is your problem, you poor loser? How does David's misfortune concern me? Am I the one who took all his money? Why should anyth
"Well, well, well. So this is the man who intends on sending me to prison. Well, I'm here now, arrest me." Pablo DiMarzio said, a mocking smile on his smooth face. "W– well- I - you see, the thing is uh- I didn't -" Richard stuttered, unable to get any word out. Florence just stood motionless by his side, looking petrified with fear. Even she was familiar with the mafia boss, and she knew the damage he could cause in her life with just a single phone call. "Why are you stammering? Didn't you want to punish me for duping these people of their money?""N- not at all sir." He shook his head quickly. "I didn't think you were the one in charge. I would never dare to go against your word or judgement." Richard was upset that Florence had to see him in such a weak state, but even more than that, he was scared that Pablo DiMarzio might ruin his life if he uttered the wrong statement. "Oh, so now I'm sir to you? But I'm a bad person, do I really deserve the respect you're giving to me?" A
Dominic would very much prefer to be on his way but Aliya insisted that he got tested again. Other than the regular pain he was feeling, Dominic felt very fine. He felt that there was no need to keep him in the hospital for even a second. But he knew the doctor would have other opinions. "If you ask me, I'd say it would be best if you stayed here for a week or at least three days to rest more, but Aliya here tells me that your mind has already been made up." The doctor said as after he examined Dominic. He knew it!"Is it really that bad?" "Well your wounds will heal… but only if you take it easy. I know you must be busy but you still need time to recover. So I would advise you to take some time off work if you can.""Okay, I will." It was his company after all. If he wanted, he could decide not to show up for a whole month and there was no one that would dare question his order. "Good." The doctor nodded. "And don't forget, today's rest is very crucial, so try to finish up your b
Dominic sat in his office with Aliya, she was giving him an update about how things were going at the company… even though he told her it was not necessary. Dominic trusted her, he knew she was not going to do anything to harm his business, and while she was aware of that, she believed that as the CEO, it was his right and obligation to know how the affairs of his company was going, at least once in a week or so. He just sat there quietly, patiently listening to everything she was saying just so he could add, 'hmm, you're handling this pretty well, just like I knew you would' just like he always did. "Oh and before you add your usual reply, there is one more thing I think you need to know. And I'm afraid it's not a good news.""Oh no, what is it?""I found some documents stating that your brother, Desmond, might have sold the Shay mansion.""What?! Is that even possible? I mean, who would even dare to buy the Shay mansion?!!""That part is still unclear to me. But not to worry sir,
"Ciara, if you know that I am still your grandmother, and that your loyalty still stands with this family… I order you to divorce this loser once and for all and get married to Richard.""You want me to what?" Ciara asked, suddenly frowning at her grandmother. "I believe I didn't stutter. Leave Dominic and marry Richard. He is obviously more capable at taking care of you than your loser husband is. And I am sick and tired of having him in my family. Besides, you said you only married him to respect the wish of your grandfather but he is dead and gone now, so you are free to live our life in a better way.""He's dead and gone? How can you say such a thing? I can't believe you gram. He was my grandfather, your husband. Shouldn't you be the one most concerned about fulfilling his last wish?""Please, let the dead rest. I would not want a situation where one child is blaming me for ruining her life or anything like that.""You and I both know that's not why you're suggesting this. I can
Tomas was patiently awaiting the arrival of his girlfriend, since they had made an agreement to meet up at night. Not more than thirty minutes later, she walked into the hotel room. "I have been calling you, why did you refuse to answer?" He questioned as she walked inside."I'm so sorry babe, I forgot to charge my phone and I didn't even remember to take my power bank when I left home. You know I would never intentionally ignores your calls. "Okay. Well, I'm sure you know the reason why I asked us to meet up?" "Of course." The couple had decided that they would come up with a plan together that would help Tomas get back in good terms with the DnD, and even though she had the whole day to think, Maria was not able to come up with any idea. "Great. I really can't thank you enough for agreeing to help me om this." He smiled and took her hands in his. "It warms my heart to see that you still care deeply for me even after what happened.""You don't have to thank me, you are my future

Since they saw the news posted about Dominic and the Mafia boss about two hours ago, they– mostly Ciara— had been anxious to hear an update. She was pacing around her office, mumbling to herself except for the occasional outbursts. "Ugh! Why won't he call me?" And throwing out some curse words as well. "So, new update, your husband is gay." Maria said, resting on the wall by the entrance. "Touching story for the kids.""What do you want, Maria? I'm not in the mood for your drama right now." She said without paying her much attention. "Of course I understand. No one would hear such news about a man she's married to and be calm. You know gram has seen it as well. So your little husband is the least of your worries.""What did she say about it?""I believe you're not crippled, so what's stopping you from going to her office to ask her by yourself?""Well if you're not going to help, then just get out of my office.""Rude, someone's letting her new position get in her head. What gives
"So? Even with the job, do you think you can somehow magically make a new life for yourself in three days?? I would really love to see you try.""Really? Challenge accepted gram. And once my wife and I manage to create a new, and more comfortable life for ourselves in three days, you will finally give her that company car that you have been planning on giving to George instead."When Dominic said that, she looked a bit shocked because she thought her plans were secret. Right from the onset, gram Fallon had wanted to give the director position to George, and it was no secret to the family. If it wasn't for his intervention, his wife would have been cheated just like that. Now what the Fallon family didn't know was that along with the huge office and the significant increase in the monthly pay, the director position also came with a brand new luxury car. Even Dominic was unaware of that fact until he heard George discussing it with gram Fallon. Since then, he had been thinking of a
