Samuel contacted the detective to see if there was any list of designers and agents he could contact. The detective asked for a few hours, as he wanted to send a complete list. After waiting for a while, the detective finally sent two lists that Samuel asked. When Samuel was about to check the lists, the detective called him. “Sir, I have a piece of interesting information you might want to know about Cecilia Smith.” “Go on.” “Apparently, Cecilia has some special relationships with models and actors at the same time. From the information I got, currently she has three friends with benefits, but the one she contacted frequently is Pierre Collin, a famous actor and model.” Samuel tapped his fingers on the table. “Interesting. Do you have any information about Pierre Collin?” “He will launch a new movie. So any scandal and bad publicity will negatively affect the movie.” The detective grinned because he knew Samuel would do anything to get revenge. “I’ll search for more information
After Madeline promised Samuel she would send him a ticket to the Paris fashion week and introduce him to fashion designers and agents, Samuel went home. Arriving home, Samuel sent the lists he received from the detective to Madeline with a request to be introduced to those in the list and also to other prominent people in the fashion industry. Then, a day before the fashion week, Samuel flew to Paris with his private jet. Madeline came with him. Samuel even ordered Madeline to stay in his hotel. Samuel and Madeline rested in the penthouse of two bedrooms. Later, they enjoyed a comfortable dinner as friends. Both Samuel and Madeline knew they wouldn’t be lovers, but Madeline was kind enough to offer her help, even to pretend as his special person. Because without the reason, it would be weird for Samuel to attend the fashion week. On the fashion week night, Samuel and Madeline went to the runway. Reporters took some pictures of Samuel with Madeline. Samuel also saw Cecilia as th
Cecilia went home, and she slammed the door hard in her apartment. Dropping her bag and some accessories from the agency office, she threw herself on the bed. She didn’t know what gossip the agency had heard, but for sure, she wasn’t afraid. There was actually a year left before her contract ended. However, a more famous agency than her former one had already approached her and wanted her to move to their agency. So, she rushed to search for the business card the famous agency’s representative gave her. When the people from the agency offered her, Cecilia only said that she would think about it, but didn’t give a definite answer whether she would receive it. This was a good time to contact the person. After finding the card, Cecilia called. The one she called received her call after two rings. “International Fashion Agency. Can I help you?” “Hello, it’s Cecilia Smith. You gave me your card with an offer to move to your agency. After thinking about it, I’d like to accept the offe
Cecilia arrived at Pierre Collin’s apartment. Since he must go in two hours, she knew she must hurry. After she came, he kissed her lips and asked her to sit on his lap. “It’s rare you call me in the afternoon. What’s going on?” he said. “Pierre, you told me you wanted to marry me. I’m ready now.” Pierre frowned as it was unlike Cecilia. He liked pursuing her because he knew she didn’t want to have a serious relationship with him. It was odd to see she changed her mind so suddenly. “Is something bad happening to you?” He lifted his eyebrow. “It’s a bad day, and I realize I didn’t appreciate you as much as you deserve.” She smiled and caressed his chest. “So, if you still want me, I’m ready to marry you.” Pierre smiled and kissed Cecilia’s lips. “I always want you.” He carried her to his bed. “I still have an hour before I must go to a photoshoot. Let’s not waste the time.” Cecilia did everything Pierre wanted. They ended up having sex for more than an hour. Laying on the bed,
From the fashion designers he invested in, Samuel got information that they didn’t work with Cecilia again. The detective also reported that Cecilia’s agency had already ended their contract with her. However, Samuel wasn’t satisfied yet because Cecilia only lost her job. He wanted her to experience the heartache like he did. So he sent anonymous information to some reporters. Samuel revealed the confession from Cecilia’s accomplice, the picture the artist drew in the interrogation room, and the cemetery where his unborn baby was buried but he censored her daughter’s name. Samuel asked all reporters to publish the information. He even asked the reporters to check information in the police station of his country in the capital to confirm his information was true. After two days, the reporters published the news, and soon, they chased Cecilia to get a comment or confession from her. She ran away to the airport and booked a flight back to her country since Paris was no longer open to h
Four years later, Samuel wondered if it was time for him to start over again. Though he still loved Amy, the detective couldn’t trace her location. Since he couldn’t find her, Samuel didn’t know how much longer he could wait for her. His grandmother was getting older, and Samuel needed an heir. Sometimes, he asked Madeline to have dinner and enjoyed his time with her. Currently, another billionaire also approached Madeline. However, Samuel didn’t want to rush because Madeline and he were good friends. He still considered it if he should pursue her as his future wife or stay as friends with her. The next day, after having lunch at a business meeting, Samuel’s car got a flat tire. So, Miguel, his driver, parked the car on the side of the street. While Miguel fixed the tire with a car jack, Samuel went outside to have a walk. A little boy ran along the pavement outside of a kindergarten and almost bumped into Samuel. Then Samuel steadied the boy’s little arm to help the boy not fall.
Miguel widened his eyes when he saw Samuel carry Shane. He opened the door for him, and Samuel told him Shane’s address. Meanwhile, Shane yawned and rubbed his eyes. “Are you sleepy?” Samuel asked. “Yes, Daddy. Can I sleep?” It warmed Samuel’s heart to hear Shane call him daddy. “Sure, Son. Just sleep.” Shane let out a happy sigh, closed his eyes, and slept. Samuel kissed Shane’s head and rubbed the little boy’s back. Miguel, who saw everything, scratched his head. “Uh, Boss? Are you the boy’s father?” “You too?” Samuel laughed a little. “It’s been three mothers and a teacher who assumed that. Why did you think so?” “Well …. If you see the boy’s face and yours in the mirror, you will see it yourselves. Oh, I have your pictures with him. I’ll send them to your phone.” Miguel shrugged. “Maybe you can ask Madam Vivian too. She will agree with me.” Samuel said nothing, but he stared at Shane’s face. His sleeping face was so cute until Samuel couldn’t stop himself from kissing th
After the lunch, Shane waved at Vivian as Samuel would send him home. Vivian hugged Shane and kissed his cheeks. She wanted to spend more time with the toddler, but she also realized that Samuel must ask permission first from the mother. So, with a heavy heart, Vivian let Samuel take Shane home. “Granny, thank you for the food. All good!” The little boy smiled and hugged Vivian’s neck. She patted Shane’s back and whispered, “Anytime you want to eat here, tell Daddy Samuel, okay?” “Yes, Granny.” Then Samuel and Shane left Vivian’s house while Vivian accompanied them until they went into the car. The little one opened the window and waved at Vivian before the car moved to the street. After an hour, they arrived at Shane’s house. Miguel noticed it was Amy’s house from the moment Samuel gave him the address, but he commented nothing. He suspected Shane was Samuel’s son because the last time he sent Samuel to Amy’s house when Samuel was drunk he was certain Samuel and Amy made love
