" Is everything alright ? " asked Derrick when he saw the pensive expression of Damian .
" Derrick !........Make sure you do another investigation on Antonio's past . " said Damian with a serious expression .
" Another investigation ?........Boss , I have gathered all the information that I could find . He doesn't have a criminal record nor does he have ties with our enemies . He is a kind guy and loyal . You shouldn't suspect him . " said Derrick .

Now that the project is ours , the land is the only thing left . " said Derrick then looked at Antonio ." If we were able to get this land was mostly because of you . It's a pity that you didn't register to work in our company as a lawyer . " said Derrick with a smile ."It's a nice offer but our boss is a troublemaker , How can I quit my job as a bodyguard when he creates trouble every minute ? Who will protect him then ?

' .....he wants to take away the business that I have in mind . He surely must be thinking that he can win if he uses his stupid followers . I will never allow this to happen . Never ! ' thought Damian with an annoyed expression . " Boss ?.....Is everything alright ? " asked Derrick . " You two better prepare . We have to go and get to the investor before my father does .

" I am truly surprised that this plan actually caught your attention . " said Antonio ." I wasn't that interested in the beginning but mr Karlo insisted that this project was worth my time . He pestered me quite a lot . I would have taken him out of the scene for annoying me that much but when I read the project , I could feel an interesting vibe . After reading the proposal of the project , I deemed it worthy and agreed to be part of it and to have my company be in charge of it . " said Damian with a smile .' ....Mr Karlo has put in a lot of effort to present this contract to Damian ?......Just what in the world is he thinking . Doesn't he hate me for being useless ?.....Just what happened to him during these six years that have passed . It's been such a long time but people with mr Donovan's blood hardly change . His blood goes through my veins too but we are totally different . ' thought Antonio with a serious expression .When they went out of the car , An

MMMMMMMAntonio let go of his hand and stood behind Damian .Damian noticed the hostility air between them but didn’t think of it as important . He just thought that maybe mr Karlo though of Antonio as a simple person with not enough of a merit for recognition .

Antonio let go of his hand and stood behind Damian as protocol required while Derrick sat down with aDamian and mr Karlo . “ Mr Karlo , we are here for the contract with the project you have mentioned . “ said Damian . “ I am happy to hear that sir Damian .

“ Boss , the minimum sleeping hours that a human being should have are at least eight to ten hours . “ said Antonio a bit annoyed with a forced smile . “ I sleep four hours mostly of the week . I don’t see any problem here . “ said Damian with his casual cool expression . ‘ ….Derrick is right . This guy isn’t human at all . Other people would die of overwork while he is so calm and composure about it . How can a person live with only four hours of sleep everyday ? ‘ thought Antonio . “ But…..I don’t see any reason to stay here . I also finished my work . “ said Antonio . “ Your work isn’t finished . You have to guard me . “ said Damian . ‘ Da

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 .

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 .

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 .
