‘ I can’t believe it……The look he had on his eyes . That wasn’t the look on a normal angry moment . That’s the look of a person that despises the other……If he finds out that the reason why Antonia was kicked out of the house was because of me , I am afraid that he will definitely stick up to his words . ‘ thought Annette with a nervous expression as she adjusted her breathing .
She got up from the ground and hurried to go inside as she tried to calm herself down .
Axel was so annoyed that he entered to get his jacket . The waiter handed him his car keys on a golden tray .
“ Are you leaving already Axel ? “ asked mr Donovan .
“ Yeah ! I have some important job to do tomorrow . “ said Axel
“ I already live in luxury . “ said Antonio with a smirk . “ ….but what you wants isn’t luxury…….is power . Am I right ? “ said Damian . Antonio looked at him perturbed as Damian spoke . “ I want someone who can be with me but not cling to me . You want power and for some reason you want it fast . I don’t know what’s the hurry since with your abilities , you will be able to make it but…….as far as I am concerned , you wanting power fast benefits me more . “ said Damian looking at Antonio’s eyes . Antonio tired his best to stay strong in front of Damian . He didn’t want to look weak in front of Damian despite him feeling extremely weak in front of his handsome stare .
“ ……..Does that feeling hold any bit of love in it ? “ asked Antonio with a dry laugh since he already knew the answer . “ ……no….. “ said Damian letting him go . Antonio smiles in a hurt way since he knew what Damian wanted yet he hoped that he could change that but the more he tried the more it seemed impossible to change .“ Since that feeling isn’t love then it cannot be called a feeling . Just because I find someone interesting , I would never consider my interest for him a feeling . “ said Antonio . “ You sure are interesting , even your way of thinking . “ said Damian with a smirk . “ Where is the contract ? “ asked A
‘ …..How was he able to get my key ?……Yet again , why is he asking me to not let anyone enter my room at night beside my family ?…..Since he already said such a rule it’s must mean that he is prohibited from entering my room as well . He he he ! That’s right . ‘ thought Antonio with a forced smile as he thought that Damian was talking nonsense about meeting with him again today . Antonio opened the wardrobe and started to get ready for the meeting , wearing one of the fanciest costumes that were prepares for him . His wardrobe was filled with expensive costumes . While he was buttoning his chemise , the door of his room opened in a forceful way . “ Antonio , what the hell did you talk about with Axel ? “ said Annette furious . Antonio turned his head
Bl7 deal‘ How….. ‘ thought Antonio confused as he entered with mr Donovan . Mr Donovan was welcomed with a warm greeting while everyone stared at Antonio confused . “ Good morning everyone ! “ said mr Donovan with a smile . “ Good morning mr Donovan ! “ said most of the people as some others looked at him confused . “ ……Emmmm…..Mr Donovan…..who is he ? “ asked three of the ten people that were present at the meeting board . “ This is a meeting where only the shareholders can enter . Is he a new shareholder ? “ asked another p
Bl7 dealAll of the shareholders looked at Damian with a shocked expression then looked at Antonio . The doubts that they had completely disappeared . “ With this reason alone , I give my vote to Antonio as the vice-president of the company . As the second largest shareholder , my vote has more power . “ said Damian . The others nodded their heads and raised their hands , voting for a positive answer . Andre also nodded his head a bit amazed that Antonio was actually able to do such a big thing for him . “ I think that my grandson deserves the affirmation for this post by all of you now that he even has evidence of his abilities . “ said mr Donovan and everyone raised their hands in appro
“ I bet Antonio must be very happy to hear that as well . “ said Damian looking at his way . “ My dear grandson . “ said mr Donovan patting his shoulder again . “ Heheheeee….. “ said Antonio smiling a little forcibly . Damian thought that it was amusing having lunch with Antonio and mr Donovan . The interaction between the two of them involved annoyance , care and funny . ‘ ….Why is he smiling in such a weird way ?…… ‘ thought Antonio a bit surprised to see him smile in a warm way . In the end they decided to take steak with risotto and red wine along with a salad . When they started to eat , they a
Damian walked to his car and his personal chauffeur opened the door for him . “ He he he he he ! “ laughed Mr Donovan smirking . “ Why are you laughing ? “ said Antonio . “ I am just looking forward to the future . “ said mr Donovan with a smile . Antonio looked at him confused then entered the limousine after mr Donovan . He couldn’t wait to get home and take a rest before taking over his harsh duties as the vice-president . While waiting to go home , Antonio’s phone rang and he saw that Axel had sent him a message . “ We need to meet . I have something important to ask you about Antonia . “ wrote the message .
“ Thanks ! “ said Antonio then madam Laura grabbed him and took him back to his room to wrap and disinfect his wound . mr Karlo also followed them upstairs . “ …..He didn’t do that much of a big thing brother . He just saved a person in danger . Furthermore , he used to work as the undercover bodyguard of sir Damian . It’s his job . “ said Annette displeased that everyone was praising Antonio for his skills and abilities . “ That’s why girls shouldn’t interfere into the men’s business . You don’t understand anything . Having saved Damian Wright is a huge benefit to our family . “ said Andre . “ Your brother is right Annette . Having Damian Wright’s support is the desire of all b
“ You lowly peasants ! “ said Annette enraged . “ They are right Annette . You should be thankful instead of being discourteous . “ said Antonio with a displeased expression when their eyes met . “ Sir Antonio ! “ said the guards bowing his head . “ Thank you for your hard work . I would like for you two leave us a minute alone . “ said Antonio . “ Sure sir ! “ said the guards with a smile then left , leaving Antonio and Annette alone . “ You are complaining too much for someone who has absolutely no right to say anything nor ask for anything . “ said Antonio . Annette turned her head and saw Antonio standing in front of her cell . “ You !…..All this happened because of you . How dare you say that I have no right to ask for anything ? “ said Annette . “ You are acting as if you are the victim when in reality you are the real guilty one . “ said Antonio . “ Antonio stop playing the role of the innocent . You have always been like this . It annoys me so much that you can get A
Axel clenched his fists then looked at his brother with a forced smile . “ You finished pretty early . “ said Axel . “ I am quite fast with my hands . It’s been ten years that I do this job after all . “ said Alex . “ If you are so good then get yourself something to be busy with and stop meddling in my business . “ said Axel . “ No can do brother . After what happened with that crazy Annette , I will be the Cupid in charge of your romantic future from now on . “ said Alex winking at his brother . The others couldn’t help but laugh a little at Alex’s statement . “ Go and get yourself busy with some surgeries . “ said Axel . Everyone laughed as they couldn’t hold themselves anymore . A month passed and Axel finally fully recovered from the injury . During his staying at the hospital Antonio went to visit and take care of Axel daily . Damian also set aside his work to accompany Antonio at the hospital . He felt uncomfortable with Antonio and Axel remaining alone . Things at the
“ Damian……why are you grabbing me like this ? The servants were watching . “ said Antonio blushing .“ So what if they are ‘ You are the leader of the Landar mansion and we will soon get married . There’s nothing for you to be shy about . “ said Damian annoyed . “ I really don’t know what’s wrong with you . “ said Antonio confused when noticing that he was a bit annoyed . Damian grabbed Antonio and placed him on his shoulders then entered Antonio’s room . He locked the door with the key then placed Antonio on the bed . “ Damian Wright ! What do you think you are doing embarrassing me in front of the servants like that . Don’t forget that you are at the Landar family territory here . Not the Wright family territory . “ said Antonio annoyed . “ Oh , really ?……Well , I am to marry the leader of the Landar family soon . My man’s territory is mine as well so is my territory his . “ said Damian with a devilish smirk , softly touching his cheek and laying on the bed with him . “ Damian…
When Damian heard him , he opened his eyes wide and went near Antonio . “ I will come with you . “ said Damian walking ahead . “ No ! Angelo just woke up and he needs someone to stay with him . You better take care of him . “ said Antonio . “ My parents and your parents can take care of him until we go for a visit and come back . After all you will not be spending the night there , will you ? That’s crazy . “ said Damian with a fake smile laughing the matter off . “ Damian , in case you haven’t realised the situation , allow me to explain it to you again . Axel blocked a bullet for me . A bullet that could have take my life . He nearly died because of me . The east I can do is go visit him and take care of him until he gets better . “ said Antonio who was trying to keep his cool . “ Still….. “ said Damian but Antonio stopped him . “ I don’t want to hear any excuses . You will stay here with our son . End of discussion . “ said Antonio . Damian couldn’t stand the idea that Ant
“ You……..did ? “ said Antonio with a shocked expression . Mr Karlo turned his head away and his cheeks were clearly blushing a little . Antonio looked at him and smiled then couldn’t help but laugh . “ Who would have thought that you actually were being a father in disguise like ? “ said Antonio with a surprised expression . “ Well , I am a father . You can’t call it a disguise . “ said mr Karlo . “ Heh ! You old man ! Would it kill you to say I love you my child . “ said Antonio a bit annoyed . Madam Laura couldn’t hold her laugh when she heard Antonio call mr Karlo an old man . Mr Karlo coughed a little then in the blink of an eye he went near Antonio and hugged him . “ I love you my child . I am very proud of you . Thank you for being born as my child . “ said mr Karlo with a serious tone , smiling as he hugged Antonio . Antonio laughed happily and hugged his father tightly . “ I love you too daddy . “ said Antonio . “ My dear princess . “ said mr Karlo . “ Daddy , I am a
“ Mom ! “ said Antonio with a happy expression . Madam Laura looked at Antonio then noticed the ring in his hand . She looked at his hand in surprise when seeing the shiny ring on his finger . “ Do you have a minute , master Antonio ? “ asked madam Laura with a polite tone as she smiled . “ Mom ! What are you saying ? Please don’t stand on formalities with me . I am your child , your son . “ said Antonio a bit panicked . Madam Laura smiled then entered the office as Antonio followed her from behind . When they entered the room , Antonio noticed that his mother was a bit too silent . “ …..It is true that you are my child but whether you are my son or my daughter…….I am still unsure about it . “ said madam Laura , sitting on the couch of the office . Antonio realised that he had some explaining to do about the situation they were in . He knew that he could not pass this lightly without a proper explanation . “ I know……Even though you said that it didn’t matter , I still owe you a
Antonio looked at the files then looked at the door . “ Mr Donovan , I need to speak with you . “ said Antonio with a serious tone , wanting to make sure of something before he continued with the files . “ I know what you want to talk about Antonio . Right now , you have a more important duty and that is to legalise your identity as the new leader fast . There will be time to talk and I will explain what you want to know along with Andre of course . “ said mr Donovan looking at Andre who was caught in surprise but also looking a bit guilty . “ I suppose you are right . “ said Antonio looking at Andre . Damian hugged Antonio and handed him the file he was holding . “ I am going to check on our son . My people are surrounding the place . Don’t worry about anything , just finish what you need to finish . “ said Damian with a sweet smile . “ Thanks dear ! “ said Antonio happily . The lawyers that mr Donovan had asked to come arrived and they all started to work immediately . As Ant
Bl truth“ Dad , stop bluffing . “ said mr Karlo . “ I am dead serious Karlo . “ said mr Donovan . They looked at mr Donovan’s expression and realised that he was indeed dead serious . “ How did you know all this ? “ said Antonio . “ I placed people to follow you in secret . “ said mr Donovan . “ You knew every move of mine ? “ asked Antonio . “ Yes ! “ said mr Donovan . “ You were the one that kicked me out of the family and disowned me . Why would you pay so much attention to me when you were the one that cut me off completely ? “ said Antonio , still not convinced even though mr Donovan’s expression wasn’t lying . “ I know what you are doubting . From a young age , I realised that you wanted to be a boy . That you never felt comfortable under a girl’s skin . After experiencing such a shocking incident , I was curious to see if you would finally have the courage to take the step ahead and transform yourself in what you were supposed to be born as . When looking at your cryi
“ Honey , please calm down . “ said mr Karlo trying to ease his wife’s anger . Mr Adam couldn’t even laugh as he looked at madam Laura’s enraged expression . Madam Diana wanted to speak a little but she thought that it would only amie things worse . She couldn’t even speak up for her son in this matter as he was totally and definitely in the wrong for his behaviour towards Antonio . ‘ Son , mommy wants to help you but since you were so stupid as to behave in such a way , there’s nothing more that I can do as you have no good point in Laura’s perspective to be gasped and used in a positive response . Haaah….. ‘ thought madam Diana with a tired look . “ Are you alright , dear ? “ asked mr Adam when he saw her expression . “ It’s all your fault . “ said madam Diana with a scary smile , making mr Adam shiver a little . Antonio tried to calm his mother but he was annoyed and reluctant to say anything . He tried to come up with a solution but apart from his money and his handsome looks
