S3-Chapter 117

Author: Maria Anita
Flavian’s POV

I grabbed my phone and called my brother, but I was not prepared for what Raul told me. I hung up and saw three pairs of anxious eyes staring at me from the living room couch.

"What did he say, little brother?" Lexie wanted to know right away.

"Manu, do you have any idea of the size of your family's business?" I asked, looking at Manu, who seemed clueless about what I was talking about.

"It's a dairy company specialized in goat milk products. My grandfather started it, and I know the business grew with my father and brother. But it's a small, family business," Manu explained. "But I've already told you this, Flavian."

"Manu, have you ever talked to your brother about this?" I insisted.

"No! My grandfather left my brother Cam in charge of managing the inheritance he left me since I was underage when he died. As soon as I turned eighteen, my brother wanted to hand everything over to me, but I did not even want to know what it was. Before my mother had time to do anything, I

    Manuela’s POVI looked at Flavian's father over the cup I held to my lips. I lowered the cup and faced him directly."Mr. Moreno, I left home to attend college. As I told you before, my father always supported me. But my mother, like your wife, preferred that I had stayed home and gotten married, which wasn't in my plans," I replied with a polite smile. He was treating me well, so there was no reason for me not to be courteous."Ah, yes. You came with a purpose. And you also work with Alexander Miller, I understand you're his secretary. Did you get the job through Flavian?" The way he asked made it sound like I had taken advantage of Flavian."No, sir. I met Flavian at Alexander's wedding. I'm friends with him and his wife, and I was a bridesmaid at the wedding, with Flavian as my partner. I used to work for Henry Martin." I didn't let his tone affect me; it was just a loaded question."Martin is famous for his conquests. Were you one of them?" That was clearly meant to provoke. Flavia

    Flavian’s POVI looked at the woman lying beside me, sleeping so peacefully. Manu was lying on her stomach, hands tucked under the pillow, with the thin sheet covering only from her waist down, leaving her bare back exposed. Her hair spread out like rays of sunshine. It was impossible to resist the urge to touch her. I ran my finger along the length of her spine and planted several kisses on her back until she woke up, her sleepy eyes glancing at me sideways with a lazy smile unfurling on her lips."Are you awake?" I teased."No, I am dreaming," she smiled."Dreaming about what?" I continued running my nose lightly over her skin, leaving kisses here and there."It is not about what, but who," she corrected me with a mischievous look."And who is this beautiful lady dreaming about?""About a hot Greek god." I smiled at the way she talked about me."And what is he doing in your dream?""He is tempting me, kissing my body. I am seriously thinking about going to bed with him.""Look who is

    Breno’s POVI was quite excited about this unofficial investigation that Flavian had asked me to do. The whole thing seemed strange, yet everything had been treated as natural and considered mere coincidence.It was Saturday morning when I arrived very early in that small town and took a drive around to get a better look at the area. It was a small urban area with very extensive rural surroundings. It would be very difficult for a doctor to make house calls in many places, but the farm where the pregnant woman died during childbirth was only twenty minutes from town, with a good road leading there.I went back downtown, walked around the square, had lunch at a nice little restaurant, and chatted with some of the older residents, saying I was thinking of moving to the area, but no one said anything useful. It seemed like a place where nothing ever happened.Finally, I went to the small medical clinic. There was a young woman at the reception, no more than twenty years old, certainly not

    Ricardo’s POVI was about to call Lexie and give up on going to this bar with her and her friend, but after learning what happened to Patrick, I decided it was time to end my self-pity, as my friend would need me when he returned from wherever he was. It wouldn't hurt to go out and meet new people either.I got ready and went to pick up Lexie at Flavian's house. We had agreed that she would sleep at my place again. She was great company - pleasant, fun, and witty. She was very easy to get along with, and at work, we were becoming quite a synchronized pair. I rang the doorbell and waited."Look who's here." Flavian opened the door, but his smile didn't reach his eyes. He let me in and closed the door. "Tell me something, Rick, what's going on between you and my sister?""Relax, Flavian, Lexie and I are just friends, and you can be sure there's nothing else going on." I wanted to laugh at my friend protecting his sister, who was a beautiful woman, but I thought it better not to push my l

    Patrick’s POVI had been trying so hard to understand where things went wrong between Virginia and me. Lately, all I did was try to fix whatever had broken between us. And that was exactly the problem - I did not even know what the issue was. The only thing I knew was that she was constantly irritated and impatient. Everything seemed to bother and stress her out.I was so overwhelmed by this that I had been working on autopilot. I had not even bothered to get to know my new assistant. Vaguely, I realized she reminded me of someone, but maybe it was just my imagination since I could not remember who. However, she seemed quite efficient. In the two days she had been here, it was as if she was not even around - I barely saw her, but the work was getting done, and I always found everything well organized on my desk.Perhaps I should invite her to lunch and get to know her better, since she would be my right hand at the company. I liked to know well those who worked with me, and I really en

    Manuela’s POVI yawned once again, sitting at my desk at work. I had not slept, and every part of my body was tired from the night's activities with my boyfriend."Oh my goodness, at this rate my brother is going to wear you out!" Lexie placed a coffee mug on my desk."That makeup can barely hide those dark circles, Little Key," Rick laughed.I smiled at both of them, grabbed the coffee mug, leaned back in my chair, and took a sip."If every night is like this one, your brother can wear me out as much as he wants." I smiled at Lexie, who widened her eyes and broadened her smile."I think I'm going to move to your place, Rick." Lexie and Rick laughed at me."You're stealing my friend and now you're going to abandon me?" I pretended to be hurt, and they both laughed."Oh, Little Key, you have the detective to comfort you, while Lexie and I are alone in this world." Rick was teasing me."Only because you want to be, that's for sure. How was your night?" I asked."I slept like a baby! Some

    Manuela’s POVI entered the bedroom and saw Flavian sitting in the armchair reading a book. He was wearing light pants and a knit shirt. He looked up and saw me walk right past him to the bathroom without saying a word. I closed the door so he wouldn't follow me - I had a plan.After my shower, I put on pink lingerie made of transparent lace, grabbed a scarf from the closet, and went to the bedroom. I left the scarf on the nightstand, aware of his eyes on me, and turned to face him. He had put the book aside and was watching me. When I turned around, he gave me a half-smile. I went to him and bent down, bringing my eyes level with his."Now, explain to me, detective. You went into that cow's room, and she was only in her bra and panties?" He sighed, his smile fading as he nodded in confirmation. "And what happened next?""Manu..." He didn't want to revisit the subject, but I had a plan, and he wasn't going to ruin it."What happened next, detective?" I insisted, and he huffed."She got

    Manuela’s POVOf course I believed Flavian, and I knew well that Sabrina would try many tricks to seduce him, but I was prepared for her traps. For each one she set up, I would show her that messing with me or my boyfriend wasn't a good option. I wasn't the same naive and silly Manu I was when I first arrived here."Manu, you believed him, right?" Lexie asked worriedly."Of course I did, Lexie. I trust your brother, and the desperate look on his face made it clear he was telling the truth," I replied."Poor guy, Manu, and you let him leave without knowing that?" Rick reproached me."Well, I'm going to teach him a thing or two today, so he'll be smarter about that little snake's schemes," I answered with a smile."Oh great, looks like I won't be sleeping tonight," Lexie joked."Come over to my place, I've told you before, there's a spare room. We can have dinner together, and chat. It'll be good for me to have company," Rick invited her. He had been so lonely since Tess left him."Oh, I
