"Wow, daddy your house looks so magnificent and grand. How can you live in this house alone?" Sofia questioned forcing herself down from Benjamin house as she continues to admire the place.

Benjamin turns to stare at me with an awkward smile,

"Was it too much?" He asked avoiding my eyes actually he had been avoiding my stares all day.

"It's your house, and your money nothing is too much for you but I am sure even Miguel house isn't this grand with so much servants and maids." I said to him admiring the chandelier and I notice from the minute we stepped in the maids had their face to the ground in respect, won't their neck ache them? I thought to myself.

"Daddy is that you?" Sofia yelled from the sitting room pointing at a painting on the wall which I stared at awkwardly.

He looked just like they described him to be, fearless and ruthless at thee same time.

"Yes, that's me." Benjamin said with a firm stare on the painting.

"That's me." We whispered to himself again.

    Irene —I couldn't let Sofia and I be dragged into his dangerous world without knowing the truth.Taking a deep breath, I stepped out of the shadows and walked towards him, my voice steady. "Benjamin, we need to talk."He turned to face me, his expression a mix of surprise and frustration. "Irene, I thought you were asleep.""I overheard your argument," I said, my voice tinged with concern. "What is going on? What are you involved in?"Benjamin sighed, running a hand through his hair. "Irene, there are things about me that you don't know. Things that I've done... things that I regret. I was hoping to keep them in the past, away from you and Sofia."I felt a pang of sadness at his words, realizing that there was more to Benjamin than met the eye. But I wasn't about to let him off the hook that easily. "I deserve to know, Benjamin."He looked at me, his eyes filled with a mixture of pain and determination. "You're right, Irene. It's time for me to be honest with you. But just know, no m

    Benjamin —-When I was sure that Irene car had gone I immediately brought out my gun from my car and hid it in my suit while Alex rushed towards me."Shut down the building and any security tv camera around." I whispered to him rushing towards the weird people around as they rushed towards an hideout thinking I won't follow them but this time I was ready to show them what I am made of and a warning to them never to test my patience and show up in front of Irene, I just hope and pray that Irene doesn't find out the truth behind everything.I ducked behind a car as bullets whizzed past me. My heart was pounding, adrenaline coursing through my veins. I knew I had to take down Rodrigo's men to keep Irene safe. I peeked out from behind the car and fired a shot, hitting one of the men in the shoulder. He cried out in pain and fell to the ground. Taking advantage of the distraction, I sprinted towards another hiding spot, my eyes scanning the area for a

    Irene —-Benjamin's words hung in the air, his voice dripping with determination. The thought of him buying the whole company just so I could take a break seemed excessive and unnecessary, but it also showcased his power and wealth.I looked at him, his eyes burning with intensity, and couldn't help but feel a mixture of frustration and admiration. He was stubborn, relentless in his pursuit to keep me safe, even if it meant going to extreme lengths."Benjamin, you can't just buy a whole company because of me," I protested, my voice laced with disbelief. "It's too much."He moved even closer to me, his breath warm against my ear. "Irene, I will do whatever it takes to ensure your safety. Money is not an issue for me. I just want you and Sofia to be protected."I sighed, feeling torn between my desire to continue working and Benjamin's unwavering determination to protect me. I knew deep down that he was right, that my life was in dange

I would have to see her father and end this deal he would need to find another way to pay me back.I stood front of the mirror slowly adjusting my suit when I noticed someone trying to sneak up on me and when I checked through the mirror it was my little angel Sofia, I knew she was trying to scare me so I needed to play along and act scared."Booo!!!" She yelled making me chuckle and then pretending to shiver, I turned around and squirted down to her size with a wide smile on her face."I scared you." Sofia teased making me smile."You won this time, I never believed I could get scared so easily." I said to her as she giggled planting a kiss on my che

    Irene —-"But I like it here with Daddy," Sofia protested, her tiny voice filled with confusion."I know, sweetheart, but Daddy has some important work to do and he won't be able to come home for a few days," I explained, trying to sound convincing.Sofia's bottom lip quivered, and I could see tears welling up in her eyes. It broke my heart to see her so upset, but I knew I had to be strong for both of us."Don't worry, Daddy loves you very much, and he'll come visit us soon," I assured her, kissing her forehead gently.As we packed a few more of our belongings, I prayed that Benjamin wouldn't discover my deception too soon. I had booked a hotel room under a false name, far away from the mansion. It was the only way I could ensure our safety and escape from this complicated web of lies.Just as I finished loading the suitcases into the trunk of my car, my phone rang. It was Benjamin, and I felt a pang of guilt as I answered

    Irene —-"Mr Benjamin." They all whispered to themselves, making me smile."You all should learn to stop gossiping and most especially be careful with the kind of words you utter.""Benjamin, what are you doing here?" I asked, my voice filled with surprise and concern.He looked at me with a mixture of confusion and hurt. "Irene, I heard what they were saying about Sofia. I couldn't just stand by and ignore it."I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. This was not the time or place for such a discussion. "Benjamin, we can't have this conversation here. It's not appropriate, and it will only make things worse."He reached out to touch my arm, but I quickly pulled away. "Irene, I have a right to be involved in Sofia's life. I care about her, and I want to protect her."I could see the sincerity in his eyes, but I couldn't let my emotions cloud my judgment. "Benjamin, I appreciate your concern, but Sofia is not yo

    AURORA —--"So dad can you at least tell me more about Benjamin, I searched for him online but there is nothing much about him and something I don't understand is how he owns most of Galiano corporation but Miguel is the CEO and also the fact that his net worth is over a billionaire or more and no one knows what exactly produce all those money." I asked my dad who chuckled."Why do you think I am giving you to him so easily and making sure he doesn't change his mind?" Daddy asked, making me more confused."Daddy please explain to me." I pleaded with my dad who moves closer to me."He owns Galiano corporation." Dad said, making me almost jerk up from my seat."But Mr Miguel owns it, it's under his name." I asked."Miguel is his best friend so Miguel works for him as the CEO." Wow, this is just so unbelievable. Everything dad was saying was still coming to me as a shock."You are trying to say I am getting engaged to a bi

    Benjamin—-I dropped Sofia on my desk and instructed my secretary to watch over her as I hurried after Aurora, I got closer to her at the exit when I saw Miguel walking up to her and I decided to eavesdrop on their conversation.I couldn't believe what I had just heard, Miguel was trying to make Aurora hate me because I own the company, I was definitely not the kind if person who just hide away while my best friend talk shit about me so I decided to step out."Miguel." I called just when Aurora asked who Sofia's mother was."Benjamin." He replied nervously walking up to me."I thought you would be upstairs with Sofia?" Miguel asked nervously as I chuckled."I had to chase after Aurora, I won't just let her leave that way thinking I am a had person." I said staring at Aurora from time to time as she still seemed angry."Have you been there all this while?" Miguel asked, I nodded with a smirk on my face as I walked passed

He unexpectedly pulls e to his chest with the same finger I pointed at him.“Ouch, Hugh you are hurting me.” I begged but he still didn’t let go.“Don’t you forget that the chances of Benjamin coming back to you depends solely on me.” Hugh whispered to me through grunted teeth.I winced as Hugh's grip tightened around my wrist, his words sinking in. He was right. Benjamin's recovery and his memory of me depended on Hugh's ability to manipulate the situation. I c

    Irene—-“Benjamin almost died!!!” I yelled like it just happened, “Calm down Irene… it was really critical but we got a hang of it and that’s why you saw Benjamin.” Alex assured me as I tried to keep a fake smile on my face.“You don’t have to keep trying to look happy if you are breaking down inside Irene.” Alex added while I continued to stare at Benjamin who was still lying still on the bed with his eyes wide opened.“ I missed him so much and was expecting him to come back to me in good health but he didn’t.” I whispered to myself.As I stood there, staring at Benjamin lying motionless on the hospital bed, my mind began to wander. I had imagined his return so differently. I had pictured him walking through the front door, a smile on his face, his arms open wide to embrace me and our child. I had imagined him healthy and strong, ready to take on the world with us by his side.But reality had shattered those dreams. Benjamin had come back to me, but not in the way I had hoped. He w

    Irene—-As I was about to ask Alex about any updates, my phone buzzed with a message. It was from the doctor, informing me that Benjamin had opened his eyes. Excitement and relief flooded through me, and I rushed to his room, eager to see him awake.But when I entered the room, my heart sank. Benjamin was lying there, his eyes open but devoid of recognition. He stared blankly ahead, unable to move or speak. It was as if he was trapped in his own body, unable to communicate with the world.Tears welled up in my eyes as I approached him, gently taking his hand in mine. "Benjamin, can you hear me?" I whispered, my voice filled with hope.There was no response. Benjamin's gaze remained distant, his body still and unresponsive. It felt like a cruel twist of fate. He had opened his eyes, but he was still so far away from me.The doctor entered the room, his expression grave. He explained that Benjamin had suffered a severe brain injury during the attack, which had resulted in his current co

    Irene—-“ yes she had full access to Benjamin for goodness sake she was Benjamin’s personal doctor all through his time healing.” Alex said to me with regrets written all over his face.“Why couldn’t you force him to come back home immediately this happened to him and again why were you two rushing to come back, you do know I can actually take good care of myself without your guidance and I was doing that perfectly for more than month.” I said to Alex who tries his very best to avoid my gaze.“ I am really sorry Irene but he is your fiancé, you know how stubborn he is and he doesn’t want you to see him in this state and secondly he was so fucking worried that barnabas got to you before he knew.”“Why is he so scared of barnabas… one thing I know about barnabas is that he is never scared of anyone no matter how you threaten him?”I asked Alex who murmured few words to himself.“ Alex, speak to me.” I said with a demanding tone to Alex.“ barnabas is more of an anonymous person in the ma

    Irene—-Benjamin's expression softened, and he gently brushed a strand of hair away from my face. "I'm sorry, Irene. I never wanted to be away from you for so long," he replied, his voice filled with regret. "But I had to ensure your safety and deal with the threat that was looming over us. I couldn't risk putting you in danger."I nodded, understanding the weight of his words. As much as I had missed him, I knew that Benjamin had made the right decision. Our love was strong, but it couldn't protect us from the dangers that lurked in the shadows.Benjamin took a step closer, his hand caressing my cheek. "I promise, Irene, I will do everything in my power to keep you safe. We'll face this threat together, and we'll come out stronger on the other side," he said, his voice filled with determination.“Where is Sofia?” Benjamin asked, teasing my lips with his hands.“ in school.” I replied, trying my best not to blush.“She needs to stop going to school and attend private school at home to

    Irene——“Welcome Mrs Ferrari.” Few workers said to me as I marched in with a few guards by side and my dad behind me and Hugh opening the elevator for me before I got there.“Thanks Hugh, I hope you are enjoying the company on your first day?” I asked Hugh who nods with a weird smile and for some reasons I can’t point out he avoids my dads gaze…..where could aurora possibly be?“Your office?” Hugh asked about to press the elevator buttons.“Yes .” I replied.I entered my office and quickly settled in, checking my emails and going through my schedule for the day. Just as I was about to start on some paperwork, Miguel, my assistant, knocked on the door."Irene, I'm sorry to interrupt, but there's an urgent meeting with all the staff. It seems important," Miguel informed me.I sighed, realizing that my plans for the day were about to change. "Alright, let's go," I said, grabbing my notebook and pen.As we made our way to the meeting room, I noticed my dad following closely behind. I turn

    I groaned as I opened my eyes, the morning sunlight filtering through the curtains. My body felt heavy with sleep, and I could hear Sofia's voice urging me to wake up. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, I sat up and glanced at the clock on the bedside table. It was later than I usually woke up, but I reminded myself that I didn't have to rush off to work like everyone else.Aurora was already dressed and ready for work, sitting beside me with a teasing smile on her face. "Good morning, sister. Is this how you always sleep in and wake up late, despite having to go to work?" she asked, her tone playfully mocking.I chuckled, ruffling Sofia's hair as she climbed onto the bed with me. "Well, I don't have to adhere to the same schedule as everyone else anymore," I replied, my voice filled with amusement. "Besides, I've handed all your resumes to Miguel. He'll handle it from now on, so you're no longer under my wing."Aurora's eyes widened in surprise, and she let out a breath of relief. "Oh,

    As Alex drove us towards the airport , the tension in the car was palpable. The rain poured heavily, obscuring the road ahead, and thunder rumbled ominously in the distance. The weather seemed to mirror the turmoil in my heart as I desperately tried to reach irene, only to be met with a constant "call failed" message.The worry gnawed at my insides, threatening to consume me. What if something had happened to irene and Sofia? What if Barnabas had already gotten to them? The thought sent a surge of fear through me, making it difficult to breathe."Benjamin, we have to stay calm," Alex said, his voice filled with concern. "We can't jump to conclusions. irene is strong, and she knows how to protect herself and Sofia."I nodded, trying to take comfort in Alex's words. He was right. irene was a force to be reckoned with, and she had shown time and time again that she could handle herself. But that didn't stop the fear from gripping my heart.We continued on our journey, the rain pouring do

Barnabas and co, they would all pay for this.I won't forget the attack they planned on me and immediately I got to my warehouse. They blew it up, shooting me three times. They would pay for ever crossing paths with Benjamin Ferrari.I groaned in pain as the memories flooded my mind. It had been a peaceful day at the warehouse, or so I thought. Alex and I were going about our usual business when suddenly, the sound of gunfire erupted, shattering the silence.Bullets flew in every direction, shattering glass and tearing through walls. Alex and I dove for cover, trying to avoid getting hit. The attackers seemed relentless, their aim deadly accurate. I knew we were outnumbered and outgunned.As the chaos ensued, I could hear Alex yelling at me to stay down and take cover. But I couldn't just hide while they tried to take me out. I had to fight
