Lorenzo's POV

Clicking away on the iPad, I threw a gaze at Jack, who stood by the door. “Your father should be here any time soon, I just received report that he is coming over to see you”

I shrugged, not a bit concerned about whatever it was that he was coming here for, he could do whatever he dimmed fit, he owned the company anyway.

“ The consignment is coming, who is picking them up? I will like you to receive it, you know, better for someone I trust to do so”

I studied his gaze, which didn't flicker at all. He inclined his head at me before letting out a nod. “ That means I will have to leave soon, it should arrive at the port anytime soon”

“ Okay, you can leave” I let him out with a wave, my head back down at the iPad. If anything goes wrong, it will affect every single thing that I have worked so hard for these past weeks, I couldn't let my effort crumble to dust.

His faded footsteps told me he was out already, but when the door yanked open barely minutes after he had storme

    Daphne's POV Taking a good look at myself in the mirror, I couldn't help but exhale at how beautiful I looked. The blue gown with pearls rimming its edges clung to my curves, its soft texture glittered against my skin and the silver clutch was just right. I looked perfect to myself, but I didn't know what Lorenzo was going to think, I wasn't supposed to be that concerned, but I just couldn't help it. He had decided on the gown himself and I hope he would like it. Spinning around on my heels, I walked out of the room, down the stairs where he stood at the edge pacing up and down with a phone against his ears. Immediately my feet connected on the stairs, he flicked his head around, his eyes fixated at me, not paying attention to the call he was on anymore. “ How do I look?” I bit on my lips anxiously, waiting for an answer to which I didn't get any. “ Lorenzo…” I drawled when he didn't say a word, his mouth slightly ajar at me. “ Stunning” he complimented. A smile crept at the edg

    Lorenzo's POV Putting Jaden off was only the right thing to do, he had continued pestering Daphne, until we got into the car. The silence back home was dreaded, I didn't know what was going through Daphne's mind, but I could tell that they weren't pretty. “ I want out of this! I. Do. Not. Want. This. Anymore.” she screamed at me, immediately the elevator shut behind us. “You don't respect me,! You do whatever you want without seeking my approval, what exactly do you take me for? Someone who will dance to your whim? I have my life! I have things I need to do! I have what I want to do with my life, and you aren't going to just bombard into my life, dishing out instructions! At me!” “ Daphne” I intercepted, trying to get her to understand the reason I had done so. “ I had to do it, I mean I wanted to introduce you to the family, each one and you know how it's done.”She shook her head, poking at my chest. “You practically threw me to them, you knew what was going to happen and still

    Daphne's POV I woke up to the whiff of musky and woodsy scent wrapped around me and when I tried to pull away, the hands only wrapped themselves around me even closer than they already were. My legs were still sticky, and I bet that there was no way I was going to stand upright that quickly, Lorenzo had made sure of that. I tried still, but his hands wrapped firmly around me before he snickered out. “Good morning”He was sleeping in today, he wasn't going to work which was new because how exactly was he not going to work? He certainly had dozens of things to do. “ It is the weekend. Sunday precisely, aren't you supposed to sleep in some more? I mean, didn't I do a good job last night ?” My face flushed at his words, he was practically telling me that he knew what he had done, and he wasn't hiding it. “ I have to get up” I said to him, but he held me down. Finally giving up after throwing my hands up in the air, I let him scoop me closer to himself, his breath lingering closer to

    Daphne's POVIt was pretty easy to know what exactly it was she wanted, with this public confrontation. Trisha was out to taint my image even before I made it to the high society. I put out a finger, halting my bodyguard, who had taken a step forward. I could handle this, I didn't need her here for something this trifle. “ Are you nuts?” My hands went underneath my boobs as I folded them while staring at her. A relaxed look on my face. One I was sure was pissing her off. She looked as if she had taken in bolts of thunderstorms as her face kept raging in and out. “ What do you mean by that?” Bridging the gap between us. I leaned against her ears. “ You have two choices, Trisha. You either take your dainty self out there without being thrown, or you step in and act like you were supposed to. I could as well strike out your name from the list" Her nerves bulged, she clearly felt insulted but wasn't going to do anything because she couldn't risk it. Her eyes went above my shoulders a

    Lorenzo's POV “Just keep me updated, also make sure Trisha doesn't hurt a strand out of her hair. Do everything within your power to make sure of that" I dished out instructions at Tessa, before slipping the phone back into my pocket. That was her duties, and I wasn't supposed to be reminding her of it, but this was Daphne. I wasn't certain what length Trisha could go, but I wouldn't allow any single one of them. “Father…are we close?” Avery's voice filled my thoughts as I eased my way to my father's estate. The gray mansion in view, its elongated points and Jalousie windows reminded me of how much I detested coming here. My hands patted her hair as I answered. “We should be getting off soon” Drago had threatened hell and brimstone at Daphne. He had promised to fish her out and hurt her if I didn't show up just to give an explanation of my attitude last night. He had always wanted grandkids and seeing mine will surely give Daphne a soft spot in his rugged heart, that was what I

    Daphne's POV I knew pacing up and down wasn't going to help, but I just couldn't help it. Lorenzo wasn't picking up, a palm leaned against my forehead as I wondered where exactly I was going to start off from, when the door clicked, my head swirled around, a breath of air leaving my nostrils when they came into view. Lorenzo and my kids. My eyes ran to the kids who looked perfectly fine to me, but kept looking up to Lorenzo at intervals. With hands on my waist, I inquired. “Where have you guys been?” My eyes moved from Lorenzo to Avery and Alexis who were looking everywhere except for me. “ I am waiting” I squinted further when I didn't get any response from either of them. “Come with me” I let him tug me away while mentioning to the housekeeper to look after the kids while we were away.“ Now, are you going to tell me where exactly you were with my kids? I came home early, to spend the evening with you, you promised me a dinner date, remember? So where exactly were you?” I cou

    Daphne's POV I couldn't count the number of times my stomach churned, nor Irene's words to me as she promised to place a call through to Lorenzo and that I was going to be fine. My head swam with muddled thoughts, and with clambered steps, I walked down the endless steep of stairs to a black Cadillac which I didn't know what my fate would be. The stern-faced man holding the door shut it closed after making sure that I was fine inside before driving off.My palm got sweaty, and my throat parched as I thought of how I had missed the chance to inform Lorenzo. “ But you hadn't,” a tiny voice whispered to me. “ And now, you will be turned into chunks” I swallowed, gulping down the dread that filled my head when the car drove into the familiar building, its high windows came into view and I fisted my palm. It was now and never.“ Get down” the tone wasn't one that told me I had a choice. I had to do what they told me without disputing his words. I sauntered behind the stern-faced man,

    Lorenzo's POV All of her explanations weren't convincing, and I still couldn't fathom how her reasons made sense. “You took the cheque? Why? Why would you do that? Are you planning to run away with the kids? When no one is watching? I asked in doubt. Everything was spiraling out and it didn't make sense. She wanted to leave me.“ I will cancel the engagement with Trisha. I would do all of that for you, so why…why would you do so?” To love someone this way was maddening, but I didn't care because it was Daphne. She was worth it all…worth all the trouble I was going to go through.“ Lorenzo…” her hands patted the side of my face. My head a racking mess, as different thoughts swam through it. “ I am not going to leave you. Why will I care for something this fickle when I have the whole cash with me? I mean, having you is enough, and you should know that”I didn't mind the fact that she was going to stay with me just for money, she might not love me, but she will surely come to love

    Lorenzo's POV “ She wouldn't like this,” Don Dawson said to me as I offered him the drink I had managed to win at an auction. “ I know right? Daphne would hate it if she knows that I am here with you, but it doesn't seem like I have a choice here” He shook his head to the side, snapping them gently before he uncorked the wine, the pop going off as I glanced at it, he poured a bit into a glass which he handed to me, and another which he kept for himself. “ She actually told me to settle things with you, smooth things out, she had said,” he gave the only reason which I could say made sense. That she had an idea about what exactly was happening, because if she hadn't found me in bed with her, I knew she would have blown up my phone with calls right about now, and I was loving it. It showed that I was loved just as much as I loved her, with how she didn't hide at all to show that. I bobbed my head, gulping down the drink in a go when it hit the back of my throat, I swallowed, letti

    Lorenzo's POVWhen she had asked, wanting to make sure that I was fine, I didn't know what else to say aside from the fact that I was fine.I didn't want her to worry, I didn't want the crest on her face to deepen, I hated to see her worry, so I just couldn't bring myself to give her an answer that would break her again. When we had walked into the decorator greenhouse, the makeshift one that I had ordered to be made before all the ruckus happened, I found myself saying the word that I hadn't even practiced for. I had thought about this moment for years, kept it in mind for hours, thought about her expression when she saw it, but none of them had prepared me for when I was there, kneeling before her. I found myself stuttering, the words I didn't plan came out of my mouth instead, was I perhaps tense? I probably was, but it helped me get away of the thoughts that my father was dead. The doctor had given a heart attack as the answer, and we hadn't pushed on, neither had the workers

    Daphne's POV My hands held Alexis, as my hands went on his back, smoothening it gently, Lorenzo was still, not saying a word, but I knew he had a lot in mind. My hand held his hands, squeezing it gently, as I tried to get him back to me when he gave a small smile at me, his eyes deepened as he stared at me. “ I am fine” he assured me, that I wondered if he knew if he had any idea that his face was a sharp contrast to what he had just said. “ It is fine to let the tears down if you want to” His lips curved into a small smile, which did little to help, before he glanced outside. “ Chad will be waiting for us, we have to be sure that everything is fine, and whatever is it wouldn't harm him, you know with everything that has been happening” I nodded, bobbed my head in understanding at what he had just said. It was going to be fine. “ Wouldn't you go back? To take him to the morgue?” He bobbed. “ I will have to do that tomorrow, I would prefer that we bury him tomorrow, but first

    Daphne's POV I racked my brain, trying to ascertain that it wasn't who I was thinking, he wouldn't have been so stupid, he wouldn't do something like that. “ Daphne…. Daphne..” Irene's voice pulled me out. I threw her a glance, when footsteps glided in, and my father rushed in, rage stomped over his face. “ You said something about Alexis missing, have you seen him? Where exactly would he be? Do you think it would be from my side or Lorenzo's?” He tried to make certain that we would curtail this problem. I knew there was just a person, one person in Brooklyn but this wasn't how I wanted it to end, I didn't want to give him an easy death, he didn't deserve that. I needed Drago to be in pain, I needed him to pray for death, but he wouldn't see, I wanted him to watch my face as he died, I wanted to see his car slide down the bridge as mine had done. What exactly had been my offense? His son loved me.“ Drago” I uttered, loud enough to his hearing. “ He is the one who has him” Hi

    Lorenzo's POV I traipsed into the lift a happier man that I thought I was going to be, I watched gently as she sat on the chair, holding the kids firmly, before dropping the bags on the table. I couldn't have been happier, she was back in my life and back to me. I didn't know if I was thinking too fast, but I found myself inching to give her the ring I had gone to customize before the accident happened. I hadn't forgotten, nor forgiven Drago but I didn't want to think about him, not with this new joy that I felt. “ Do you think that I should apply it in, now?” “ Mother, I will help you with it,” Avery offered. “ I will do so also” Alexis offered also, and I was relegated to the background. It had barely grazed her arms, so Chad had said, but we had to be careful. It was so close to her arm socket, that if the bullet had gone in even further, it might have caused her an arm. I didn't know what to say, but I kept taking in air, and found myself saying prayers also. Of course,

    Daphne's POV I tried to force my eyes open but it stuck adamantly, I let out a hiss before trying again before whistling out in pain. I hated how I felt, it seemed as though I had been rammed over by a lorry and thrown over here, I tried to push myself up but I just couldn't. Sighing in resignation, I tried once more, gentle at first and the sharp ray of lighting that flashed through caused me to clasp it shot again. I gnashed, took in air before I flickered them open once more,this time swerving a glance around. I was stunned when warmths sipped into me. Flipping my head to the side, my eyes watered when I noticed Avery by one side, and Alexis by another, and Lorenzo holding my hands. I bit hard into my cheek, taking in the pain while I tried to force myself not to shed a tear. This was everything that I wanted, everything that I had imagined, my family back with me. I laid back, letting the warmth cascade down to my side, let it drap itself around me when I ran my hands thro

Hands held me, voices echoed around me, pleading for me to let go, but I just couldn't, I held her, squeezed my hands around her, pleading for her to come back to me. “ Lorenzo” Jack's voice thundered above me, as he shook my shoulders. I flipped my head around, barely considering his face before I stared at my hands. Coated with blood, my beloved blood, and I forced myself up. “ Where are you taking her?” Dawson's voice drilled into me, he forced himself forward, as he stretched his hands at me. “ You will get out of my front, or else, I will shoot you the fuck now” I warned, my eyes glazed with rage. “ Drop her down, she is mine and…” “ Father” a hand held his shoulder. “ Let him go with her. She will be safe with him” I didn't so much as spare him a glance as I sauntered through, my eyes darkened with rage before settling her on the seat.

    Lorenzo's POV I knew that something was up, I knew there was something Daphne wasn't telling me, and although I had tried countless times not to think about it, I was so sure that it made sense now. I had felt her salty tears, the one that ran down my back countless times, and even when I thought that it was from the fact that she was enjoying it, my two senses told me that she wasn't okay somehow, but she wouldn't just say. I couldn't push her either, I was never going to do that, not when she was hiding the fact that she was Daphne so good that I didn't know what to say nor do. I had tried numerous ways that I knew about just to have her to talk, but we were tight lipped,still insisting that she was Talia and not Daphne. Now, with the card in my hands, I didn't know what to say. My heart was in shreds as I glanced at it, the names fading the more I glanced at it. I swallowed, in a world of my own, when I noticed a hand shook my shoulders. “ Get back here man, I have been call

    Daphne's POV His lips slid into my mouth, making me miss all the times that we hadn't had time together. His teeth bit into my tongue, possessively, fiercely, while I fought for him to let go. My cunt pooled before he could slip a finger in, while I ached my back properly, giving him a proper view of my face. I held myself, my hands by my side as I forced myself not to run my hands on his face. I inched to do so, wanted to do so, found myself inching and aiming to do so, but I just couldn't. He pulled away gauging my expression. “ What?” I asked, his eyes softened as I stared into them. His hands drew pretty lines over my face, his love filled eyes pierced through me as he exhaled. “ You look so beautiful, so beautiful that I wouldn't mind gazing at you for the rest of my life, and I also wouldn't mind giving you my heart. I want you to own it all” My heart slammed at his words, as I drowned in them. They sounded perfect to me. I sniffed in, keeping my emotions at bay, befor
