' ....That look in his eyes.......Could it be my imagination ? ' thought Antonio thinking it was a bit weird since they both were men .
" President Damian..... " said Antonio with a tired expression .
" Yes ? " said Damian .
" ......I don't understand why such a rule exist . I know that I have to protect you but if I happen to meet someone I like , why can't I be in a relationship ?......I truly don't understand this kind of logic . " said Antonio .
" .....With such a good understanding of business , it's hard to believe that you don't understand the simple things , sir Antonio . " said Damian with a smirk then leaned on the table a bit more and looked at Antonio .
" It looks like you still don't understand the importance of your position . You will be my personal bodyguard . All of your time must be devoted to me . I will become your second top priority after your son . If I a
After they arrive at the office Derrick gives Damian a pile of files and leaves them on his desk ." These should be finished for the next two days boss . The meeting is already fixed . " said Derrick ." I see ! We need to win this project too . After we get the land , we can start building the new project . " said Damian .Damian looked at the files then remembered the angry expression of Antonio when the boyfriend was about to beat the girl ." 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 .Although it had only been three months since
" Boss , we did it ! " said Antonio with an excited expression ." He he he ! We did it ! " said Damian with a smile still wearing the black mask covering his face ." Great ! 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 ? " said Antonio mending his jacket ." How dare you call your boss a troublemaker ? " said Damian flicking Antonio's forehead ." Ouc !......he he he ! I am the sorry boss . " said Antonio with a silly smile ." Honestly , between you and Angelo , I wonder who the real child is.....Pffft ! " laughed Damian and walked ahead .
" Antonio.... " said a seducing voice from behind Antonio . When he turned his head , he noticed that it was Mia . ' ....Mia......What is she doing here ? ' thought Antonio with a worried expression when seeing her eyes looking at him with affection . " I am curious to know your opinion on the company . How about we have lunch together ? " said Mia with a docile expression . " I......I have to work today . I am sorry that I can't accompany you . " said Antonio with a nervous smile , trying to distance himself from Mia . " ...Hmmmmm.....Is that so ?.....What a pity ! I guess we will eat together another time then . " said Mia with a bit of a sad expresison . " Sure.....another time . " said Antonio with a nervous smile then hurried to go back to his office . Derrick heard their conversation and showed a distressed expression . ' Haaaah !.......I can't do anything , nor can I hate Antonio . He is indeed good-looking
Damian looked at the file with an annoyed expression . He knew that he had to do something about this quickly . He couldn't let his father's people get the upper hand . ' .....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 . If we lose this project Derrick , you will be working overtime for the whole month to compensate for the loss . " said Damian with a serious expresison . " Ye......Yes..... " said Derrick with a discouraged expression . Damian looked at Antonio and handed him the file he was holding . " We will arrive at the meeting place in half an hour . During that time , I wish for you to read and learn more about
" 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 . It was normal for powerful businessmen to neglect their assistants or bodyguards , apart from the people they truly trusted . 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 . I didn’t have much faith that
‘ ….Let’s see what a good bodyguard you are , Antonio . I believe in your abilities . I hope that you won’t let me down . ‘ thought Damian as he drank the wine . “ You seem to think of him as important , sir Damian . “ said mr Karlo . “ …..I personally choose him as my bodyguard . “ said Damian with a smile . Antonio went out of their room and walked ahead to check his suspicions . When Antonio left the front door , the waiters nodded their head and took a towel to cover their hands . Along with the towels , they even got moving tray with two wines . “ …..That bodyguard looked like he was doubtful of us . “ said one of the waiters . “ That momma boy . He look
“ The contract is finally signed . We can take this project out of the list of jobs that we have to finish for this month . “ said Damian . “ I want to cry tears of joy every time a contract is signed . “ said Derrick . “ ….Why do you need to cry ? “ asked Antonio . “ Antonio , you have been working for only three months at maximum . If you become an old employee like me , you will understand what a relief it is hearing the words , contract is signed . “ said Derrick . “ …Stop complaining as if I am torturing you to death . I do twice the workload and I don’t complain the way you do . “ said Damian . Derrick approached his face near Antonios in a sneaky way to not b
