REBIRTH AFTER DIVORCE: A deal with the crippled billionaire. CHAPTER 72.
“This place?!” She exclaimed as she got out of the car, and after she had helped the man sat in his chair with the driver.“You have been here?” He asked.“Yes! With Mia!” She burst into laughter.“Really?” He frowned.“Of course. I was here with Mia. Remember that time we went out together? She brought me here.”“Ah, I am pained,” he hissed and she laughed louder.“Let’s go somewhere else. I intended on taking you to where you have not been before.”“Have you been here before?” She asked him.“No.”“Then, let’s go in. Their food is so nice. I can vouch for that.”“Let’s go somewhere else,” he shook his head.“No, we are staying, and you could meet your new in-law while we are at it.”“In law?”“You won’t understand now, let’s go,” she grinned knowingly and then pushed his chair from behind.“Tell me, I am curious. Which in law?”“Don’t worry, Lorenzo. You will find out soon,” she smiled.This was the restaurant where Mia had taken her to and had gotten obsessed with the owner.They g

“Oh, God,” Jason sighed as he arrived at the table and then looked away from the woman whom he had vowed to stay away from no matter what.“Hi, greetings to you,” he greeted the people whom he assumed to be couples instead and the woman greeted him back, smiling widely.But, the man didn’t smile.He did not even look like he was pleased to see him.And that was weird because they were literally meeting for the first time.“I hope you are enjoying your meals?”“Yes, of course. Thank you,” the woman answered again.“Jason,” the lady said again, scooting closer to him.“Please, respect yourself. I am attending to customers.”“Customers? This is my brother and his wife,” she shrugged her shoulders off.“Regardless, they are my customers, and you will respect yourself.”“No. I will not. I have come to you today to give you a new proposal.”“Proposal?”By this time, the man who was said to be her brother had leaned in his seat and his hands were folded across his chest while he paid his att

By the time Leilani and Lorenzo returned to the car, Mia was resting against their car, frowning and hitting her foot on the ground.“Mia,” Leilani moved away from where she was behind Lorenzo’s back and then took her hand.“Leila!” The lady exclaimed and then pulled her into a tight hug.“Chill, you’re suffocating—” Leilani coughed and broke the hug.Mia looked like she had cried already. Her eyes were red. In fact, her whole face, but at the moment, all she had on was a frown.“Brother,” she whimpered, holding Leilani’s hand tight.“What?” Lorenzo raised a brow.“I need a favor from you,” she sniffed“I am not helping you talk to anyone, clock that.”“I need you to… lend me your wife.”“What?” He snapped his brows together.“Please. Let her be with me for a while. She is my only friend and you know that. I will bring her home by myself. I promise. Lorenzo, his face fully frowned, dropped his eyes on Leilani who squinted her eyes and nodded her head gently at him.“But… she is not e

“You are the best sister-in-law in the whole World! God!” Mia cried as Leilani helped her to the car.“You have said that like a hundred times today.”“I could go on and on. You are my best friend and confidant. I love you.”“Good, I love you too,” Leilani groaned, as she finally settled the woman in the car.She turned around, entered, and then adjusted her head on her thighs.“Let’s go,” she said to the driver.“I am going to pay you back, Jason…” she moaned as she closed her eyes.Leilani shook her head as the lady had finally slept up and then removed her phone from her bag.Lorenzo had called a couple of times and she had missed them.She dialed his number again and he picked up almost immediately, like he was waiting for her call.“Lani.”“I’m so sorry I missed your call. I didn’t know it was ringing.”“It’s alright. Are you on your way now?”“Yes. But the thing is, Mia is drunk. So so drunk that we had to hire a chauffeur to drive.”“You should have told me this earlier. I woul

Leilani’s head felt hazy as she could already feel the alcohol working its way up her system but instead of trying to put a stop to what was happening, she deepened the kiss and leaned into his tall frame.Her hands went around his shoulders as she grabbed onto them tighter holding herself up in his arms.The kiss soon became frantic and she felt the hardening bulge in his pants, she wanted him more than ever.“You taste so sweet,” Lorenzo said, lapping at her bottom lip, her moans filling his ears and he couldn’t wait to hear her cry out his name.Directing her quickly towards the bed he grabbed her butt lifting her from the ground and placing her gently on the bed.“No, no I want you” Leilani protested when the man got up, the low rumble of his chuckle against her skin made her close her thighs together rubbing it for friction.“Are you certain you wanna do this because I might actually not stop when I start,” the man said and she smiled, while he took off his clothes she hurriedly

Leilani groaned gently in her sleep and then tried to pull away as the pressure around her neck was too much and she could actually choke to death.She coughed gently and then opened her eyes.She was wrapped in Lorenzo’s embrace, and she wished for nothing more than to remain there.However, the incident of the previous night rushed her, and she closed her eyes again.She was fully aware and conscious of what they had done. Even when the man had asked her if she was sure she wanted it, she had urged him to continue.All this while, it had been taking everything in her to not succumb to the craving she was feeling for the man and yesterday, it had taken nothing but his scent to make her lose control.She opened her eyes again, and then gently raised her head to look at the man who slept peacefully and she sighed.This might actually be the first time she would see him sleeping so soundly as he was always waking before her.She glanced at his long lashes, and then dropped her eyes on h

“Are you okay?” He asked as she stood upright and then adjusted her clothes.“H… hi,” she stuttered.Lorenzo dropped his head to look at the woman whose face was totally red and she was trying hard to not meet with his gaze.He shook his head and then said. “Good morning.”“Yeah… morning,” she nodded her head.“Actually…” she sniffed, staring at the fingers that she was picking on.“I was going to remind you that Mia is still around so you should not come out till… she has left. You understand, right?”“Okay.”“Yeah,” she nodded her head.“So?” “Yeah, she is having hangover soup downstairs. Martha made it for her,” she said as the man had asked.“Okay.”“Yes.”“Good.”“Exactly,” she nodded her head and then whirled around.“Oh, just stay calm, woman,” he dropped his hands on her shoulder and then shook her gently.“What?”“Why are you reckless?”She finally looked up to meet with his eyes, pouted her lips, and then shook her head.“Nothing,” She shook her head and answered in a whisp

The room was unusually silent and Lorenzo wouldn’t stop stealing glances at the woman who sat across him, her face fully buried in her food.She didn’t even raise her head to look around or anything.He shook his head and resumed eating.After a while, Martha slammed her hands on the table gently and then breathed out.“What is going on? Do you two talk it out?”“What?” He asked.“The atmosphere between you two right now? You don’t wanna get me started. I know how it is usually cozy in the dining room here. So, tell me, is anything bothering you.”“No.”“Yes.”Leilani and Lorenzo Cho rushed respectively.“There is nothing, Martha,” Leilani glanced at the woman, and then Lorenzo.“There is, Martha. She is avoiding me.”“Oh, is she?”“Yes. First, look at where she sat. She’s not even talking at all, or looking at me or something.”“Did you do anything to her?”Leilani raised her head and their eyes met. She bit her lower lips and then shook her head at the man.“No,” he shook his head.

“Lorenzo!” Aaron hollered and then rushed towards the man.“I was just coming to see you!” He knelt down and then touched his legs gently like there were thorns around it which was preventing him from touching them well.But Lorenzo didn’t stand still, he walked past his father gently and then approached Shane, his face as hard as rock.“W… why are you coming in my direction?” Shane stuttered, moving backward.“Hi, brother,” Lorenzo tilted his head.“Someone stop this psycho from moving closer to me!” He snapped.“Why? Are you scared of me?” He asked when Shane’s back touched the wall, and he covered the space between them.“W… what are you doing?”Lorenzo tugged his lips into a smirk and then moved his hands from his pockets.“I know, brother.”“K… know what?” He asked, beads of sweat gathering on his forehead.“I know what you did,” he said, ever calmly.Shane swallowed the lump in his throat and then hurriedly wiped his forehead with the back of his hand.He was bluffing.He didn't

“I have things to take care of today. I will resume at the company tomorrow,” Lorenzo said as he buttoned up his wrist, his phone on loudspeaker and then dropped it on the table in front of him.“What do I do?”“You should get things in order. We are both resuming tomorrow. Release an official statement that I will be resuming tomorrow. Sort out the interview proposal that you must have received and pick up the best of them. You can do that much, right?”“Yes, sir.”“Good.”“Sir, how about the issue with Shane? You have not…”He cleared his throat, picked up his phone, and then glanced at his wife, who was still sleeping peacefully in the bed.“I will sort that out.”“When? We can’t let this drag out. We have all the evidence to apprehend him and…”“I will sort it out, David,” he cut him short and couldn’t miss the deep sigh he gave.“Don’t worry. I have it under control.”“Do you need me to go with you when you’re going?”Lorenzo chuckled and then shook his head like the man was goin

“But… Benzo is not one common name. I mean, I have heard it quite a lot in the past but I can’t quite remember where,” Leilani said as she stepped out of the bathroom, wrapped in the bathroom robe.“Oh… yeah.”“What? You wanna say something?” She asked as she settled in front of the dressing table and then pulled forward her facial care routine.“Actually,” he started and sat upright.“What?” Leilani glanced at him through the mirror.“He works at my company.”“Who?”“Jonathan.”She parted her lips and then drew her brows together.“What?!”“So, the thing is, he works at my company. He recently got promoted to an executive, in fact.”“Lorenzo?”“I know what you’re thinking,” he raised his hands.“Trust me, you don’t.”“I have many companies to my name, you know? There’s Benzo electronics, pharmaceuticals, Architecture, mall… and a few like that, and he happens to work in one of them, Benzo Electronics.”“Why? I mean… why do you let him work for you?”“He has been a staff at the compan

“B… brother is Benzo?!” Mia exclaimed as she stopped in front of Leilani and then took her hands in hers.“That makes the two of us. I’m excited,” she sucked her teeth.“What? You… you didn’t know about it?” She asked, raising her brows.“I am finding out for the first time tonight just like every other person,” she shrugged.“B… but…” Mia cleared her throat.“Maybe he has his reasons for…”“Don’t take his side, Martha!”Mia and Leilani snapped.“Good, he’s coming. He has a lot of…”Leilani snatched her hands from Mia and then smacked, “I will head inside first.”Mia, with her mouth opened agape watched as the lady walked away and then shook her head.“She is so pissed.”“He should have told her, at least.”Mia creased her brows at Martha and then chuckled, “Were you not just taking his side?” “I just needed to make her calm down, of course.”“I think you only made it worse.”Lorenzo rushed to them and then panted, “Why didn’t you stop her?!”“Why should I?” “You are so…”“You are t

Arthur didn’t know he had staggered backward and the panicked murmurs from the others had snapped him back to reality.“Y… you…”He pointed his index finger at Lorenzo who looked really unbothered as he turned to look at his security team.“Are you ready, sir?” David asked, and he nodded his head.The men formed a proper barricade, and then began to push through the crowd, with Lorenzo, his wife and Nicholas trailing slowly with them.They kept waking, ignoring the crowds while Lorenzo moved over to Leilani, and then took her hand gently in his.She raised her head to look at him, sighed and he nodded his head at her, smiling softly.When the security team stopped moving, they stopped too and David who was leading moved over to him.“There are so many paparazzi outside,” he whispered in his ear.“Really?”“Yes. Literally all media companies are here.”He looked down at Leilani again and then leaned down, “Are you good?”“Yes.”“How about the back exit?” He asked David.“It is jammed t

“I am Lorenzo Byers, and I am the founder of the BENZO group of companies.”Agnes choked on the water she was drinking as she stood up gently from the couch with Aaron opposite her.“That is…”She coughed out loud, dropping the glass cup in her hand and not minding the way it shattered to the ground. She hit her chest and then coughed again.“That is…”“Lorenzo?” Aaron whispered, and then removed his medicated glasses from his eyes as if that was going to help him to see clearer.“That is Lorenzo?!” Agnes hollered and then widened her eyes.They had both settled in front of the Television to watch the event as they had hoped that Arthur would be receiving an award that night.“He is… Benzo?”“He can… walk?”Agnes and Aaron stuttered respectively.“This is wrong. There must be an error somewhere,” Agnes shook her head.But, Aaron’s reaction was different.He staggered to the big screen, touched it, and trailed his fingers down his son’s supposed legs.“He is standing!” He cried out an

David shook his head as his boss wouldn’t stop laughing and then shook his head.“Sir.”Lorenzo smacked and then exhaled. “All along… it was him.”“Boss.”“We suspected someone from the house, did we not?”“Yes, but certainly not Shane.”Lorenzo nodded his head in agreement and then dropped his head on the headrest, his eyes closed.He might have actually imagined it to be anyone, but never Shane.He thought he knew the man.He was reckless and sassy, but certainly not the type to commit arson or murder.Well, in the past.He had just assumed the man to be a jester as he used to derive joy in making fun of his condition by coming up with numerous ironies just to insult him.But never in his whole life had he thought that Shane would go as far as wanting to kill his own wife.“Boss.”“Yes?” He opened his eyes and then sat upright.“What do we do?”“Where is he?”“He is in the hall also,” he answered.Lorenzo nodded his head and then chuckled.“Give me your orders. What do you want me t

“Is that not… Enzo’s wife?”Shane chuckled dryly as he leaned in his seat and then nudged his brother gently.Arthur took his hand from the woman who sat beside him and then turned to look in the direction Shane pointed at.“No way.”“Look there. She is sitting with Nicholas.”Arthur squinted his brows and when he confirmed that it was truly the woman, he chuckled and then hissed.“Who is that?” The woman, Emily asked.Emily was his girlfriend and he had hoped that after the event was over, he would take her home and introduce her to his family.“Lorenzo’s wife.”“Your stepbrother?” She asked and he nodded his head.“Woah, she’s pretty,” she sucked her teeth.“I don’t see it.”“She is so pretty. She looks better in person.”“Whatever,” he rolled his eyes and then turned to look at Shane.“Why is she here though?”“Perhaps… She came out to cheer for Nicholas? No one needs to be told, we know he’s getting an award tonight again.”For the past five years, Nicholas had been receiving awar

“Are you ready?”Nicholas asked her and she nodded her head, taking a deep breath.“I don’t know what we’re doing, as Lorenzo wouldn’t say a word but, okay. I am ready.”“Don’t fret. It is nothing serious,” he shook his head and then curved his arm beside her.Leilani nodded her head and then breathed out again. “If you say so.”She linked her arm around his arm, and together, they walked to the press.The moment they sighted them, they all turned to look at them, flashing their lights at them which almost overwhelmed the woman.But, Nicholas was holding on to her tight as they walked down the red carpet.They kept walking, ignoring the literally provoking questions the press was asking till they walked in through the opened door of the hall.Leilani gasped softly as she entered the hall.It was the largest she had ever seen. Real or on the television. It was so bright too that it could blind a person, and the ornaments used to beautify the hall could not go unnoticed.Chandeliers hu
