Luca sat in the meeting room with a brooding face, he was deep in thoughts and wasn't paying attention to the secretary's presentation."Sir, do you not like the presentation?" Luca looked around and saw everyone staring at him with anxious faces.It wasn't like him to zone out during a meeting but her face keeps appearing in his head "Let's adjourn the meeting" He said and stood up to leave the room.Immediately he left everyone exhaled the breath they held. They wondered what was wrong with him as something like this had never happened before.Luca got to his office and saw Enzo sitting in his office eating an apple. He went and sat behind his desk "Did you drop her off safely?" "Yes, I did. I also put in a good word for you concerning the proposal. You need to give me a raise, you can't find someone as loyal as me" Enzo said with a smirk.Luca ignored his statement and thought back to what happened this morning, he hoped she wasn't still angry with him."Do you think she's angry
It was late when Luca and Enzo arrived at B airport. Two cars were waiting for them when they got outside.One man with a strong face approached them. A scar ran from his eyebrows down to his cheekbones making him look quite scary. He was tall and heavily built. He had a tattoo drawing of a snake on his neck.He bowed slightly to Luca in respect "Boss, welcome. Your presence was unexpected, sorry we couldn't prepare things in advance." He shivered slightly at Luca's presence. His standing before him was enough to make him anxious. This man was no ordinary man."It's alright, I came for business only," Luca said and walked towards the car with Enzo striding behind him.The cars finally sped off with Luca and Enzo sitting in one while the scary man sat in the second car.It wasn't long before they arrived at a small diner. The scary-looking man quickly came and opened the door for them."This way boss," He led them inside the diner.Immediately they got inside Luca used his eyes to sca
"That went well, I almost thought you wouldn't kill him back there," Enzo said on their way back, it was still in the wee hours of the morning."You seem to think that I've lost my touch, besides he talked too much for a man. I prefer actions to talking. Get some rest, it's a long ride home" Luca said and relaxed his back on the car with his eyes closed.Enzo sighed and looked out the window. He was a little bit angry that he didn't get to have any girl to himself tonight. They had shot Russo with a silencer so they had to leave quickly before someone noticed what went down. The next time Enzo opened his eyes, the car was driving into the compound and the sun was already up in the sky. He looked by his side and saw Luca awake, going through some stuff on his tablet."Finally awake huh," Luca said and closed the tablet "It's good you rested, we have work to do at the office."Enzo groaned at this "What work again? Let me sleep some more before I go to the office. I'm not a workaholic
"The perfect reward? I look like the perfect reward. Hah!" Silver angrily mixed the batter.She was currently in a baking class. After she finished having that conversation with Luca, she angrily drove to college.She had thought the reason for him wanting to marry her would be reasonable enough and that they would try and tolerate each other but it seemed like that was out of the box."That will be all for today" The chef in charge of the class concluded.Silver was clearing her workspace when the phone beeped, she opened it and saw that it was a text from her mother reminding her about the wedding dress shopping.She had forgotten that they were supposed to check out the wedding dress. She brought out her phone and dialed Carlotta's number."Are you through with your class? Meet me at the parking lot, we're going to shop for my wedding dress."********Silver's car pulled up at THE LUXURY WEDDING DRESSES. She and Carlotta alighted from the car and made their way inside.Two ladies d
Silver stiffened when she heard that voice. It was the voice that she was becoming used to, a voice that haunted her thoughts and invaded her dreams.'What the hell was he doing here?'Luca came over and greeted Loretta and Jane. He gave them a charming smile and acted as if he was the perfect gentleman.'What a wolf in sheep's clothing' Silver thought."Silver dear, won't you greet your husband?" Her mother asked.She still didn't know how this stranger she never met was gradually taking the place of a husband in her life. What an irony."Why are you here Luca? Last time I checked, you were a busy man." She folded her arms and looked away.She was still offended by his words this morning. He was nothing to her but she didn't know why what he had said made her angry."Why didn't you include me in the wedding preparations? If you had told me you would be meeting the wedding planner today, I'd make out time for it. It's our wedding after all." He gave her a small smile.Silver felt like
"It's a pleasure doing business with you. I can't wait for the project to commence" A tall body-built handsome man shook Luca's hand and smiled at him firmly. He was in his early sixties but he didn't look like one."The pleasure is all mine Mr. Anderson" Luca said shaking his hand.Mr. Anderson also took Enzo's hand in his and gave him a warm handshake, "Till our next meeting gentlemen," he said and left the meeting room with his companion.Luca and Enzo also left the meeting room and headed to his office. When they got inside, Luca clicked on the intercom "In my office now Mary," he said and sat down."Come in," Luca said when he heard the sound of the knock on his door."Good day sir, Good day Mr. Rocco," She greeted both Luca and Enzo with a small smile."Good day to you Miss Smith, you look as stunning as ever," Enzo said and winked at her.Mary gave a small laugh and thanked him for the compliment "You requested my presence, sir," She faced Luca switching to business.Luca clear
"Argh..." Silver awoke with a groan as sunlight rays shone on her face. A knock on the door cleared the sleep from her eyes."Come in," She said with a yawn. The door opened and Stacey accompanied by another maid stepped inside the room."Good morning young miss. Hope you had a good night's rest?" Stacey asked smiling brightly."Good morning to you too Stacey, and you Lily. Why the disturbance this early morning?" Silver asked as she stood up from the bed and gave her body a good stretch.Stacey and Lily looked at themselves and shook their heads "Young miss, have you forgotten what today is?" Lily asked.Silver turned to look at them and scratched her head trying to figure out what was supposed to happen today "What is happening today? It's Saturday and I don't have any class today, I also don't have any plans today either so..."Silver gasped as she suddenly remembered something very important "Ah, today is the wedding!" She had completely forgotten about the wedding. She was tired w
It was late in the evening when the reception slowly came to an end. They had held a small wedding reception right there on the beach which made Silver change her clothes.Luca had taken her around, introducing her to some important personnel who had turned up for the wedding."You need to stop crying, sweetie. You can still come over to the house anytime you want. Just because you are married doesn't mean that you're no longer welcome in the house," Loretta, Silver's mother tried consoling Silver as she kept on crying.They were at the garage where Luca and Silver were supposed to depart, but Silver wouldn't stop crying. It was after the wedding that it dawned on her that she wasn't going to be living with her parents anymore."I don't want to go Mother. How do you expect me to live without you and Father?" She asked sobbing.Loretta sighed and wiped her tears "You'll be fine sweetie. You now have Luca by your side and he'll take care of you. Now be the strong woman that you are and
