Antonella waited impatiently for Dominique to come and pick her up. In a safe place where no one from her family could see her, she cried. Francesca was gone without ever knowing she had a grandson. Enrico would never forgive her for leaving, and now Alessia was engaged to the father of her child. When she thought about these things, working for Claus seemed like paradise compared to the hell of that town.

She watched as Dominique parked the car, the engine still running. She silently got into the vehicle, noticing that Adam wasn’t with her. Antonella’s heart froze in her chest.

“Don’t worry, Adam is safe,” Dominique said, though Antonella still didn’t calm down. “He’s with my mother. She’s elderly, but her mind is still sharp.”

Antonella sighed in relief but remained silent, as if she didn’t know what to say about everything that had happened that day. At that moment, Dominique knew something was wrong. She knew her best friend well, even though they had gone a long time without spea

    Enrico checked his watch, realizing it was getting late. Aside from keeping Benjamim company and irritating him, though he claimed it didn’t, this wasn’t helping him worry less about Adam.Enrico knew he should remain calm and positive, but waiting for news was too much. The same went for Benjamim.He slowly got up when Enrico rushed to help him.“Take it easy,” Enrico said, noticing him getting restless. “Where do you want to go?”“To see Adam.” His voice was breathless. “I can’t stand waiting here for news any longer.”“Shall I remind you that you’ve just had surgery and are still under the effects of anesthesia?”“Don’t be such a grumpy old man, Enrico,” he said, clicking his tongue. “I know you want to go see him too. You’re just afraid of Antonella.”Enrico muttered to himself as he stepped away, irritated by Benjamim’s conclusion.“Stop talking nonsense.” His voice was like a rough and annoying tear. “I avoid fighting with her for Adam’s sake.”It was clear that everyone would u

  • The billionaire's secret son   Chapter 108

    The late afternoon sun sneaked through the cracks of the open windows, making way for the icy wind of the approaching night. The sky signaled that a storm was coming. Benjamim realized this as he turned his head to look outside. He couldn’t stand seeing Antonella beside the governor.“Are you okay?” Dante’s voice broke his reverie, and it was the last voice he wanted to hear.It took him a while to turn and look at him. It required a massive effort not to show how much the governor’s presence irritated him. He cleared his throat, thought about what to say, swallowed all the offensive words that came to his mind, and said:“Would you mind leaving me alone with the mother of my child?” Those words were deliberate and hit the mark. “I appreciate the illustrious visit of the governor, but I need to be alone with Antonella.”Benjamim watched Antonella lower her head, her face turning red. She was embarrassed, but she didn’t say anything, though she understood his intentions perfectly well.

    The surgery had already been going on for about two hours, and Antonella couldn’t keep still for even a moment. She saw Carlota arrive rushing; her face pale as she sought news about Benjamim.But there was no news.She found herself surrounded by people her heart had once rejected. Enrico, sitting directly in front of her, had his eyes closed as if praying for a miracle. It was strange to see him like this, appearing as a loving man concerned about someone. She realized then that she had a distorted view of her father. She had always seen him as a grumpy old man who took out all his frustrations on her.Not only that, but she looked at Carlota, who was snapping her fingers nonstop. The very woman who had kicked her out of the company to see her as a threat was now giving her support. Yet, she still felt withdrawn and suspicious of them. Neither of the two seemed trustworthy.She looked at Carmella and Dominique, seated just ahead; they were the only ones who deserved consideration. T

    “What do you think you’re doing?” Alessia was banging on the car window and desperately trying to open the door while the car was moving. “Do you want to be arrested again, accused of kidnapping?”“I’m just following Mr. Benjamim’s orders.” Fred looked at her through the rearview mirror, making no effort to hide his satisfaction at seeing her in such a situation.“What makes you think I’ll believe anything you say?”“Isn’t it obvious?” he asked before continuing. “I’m driving his car. When will you realize that Benjamim can’t stand you anymore?”Alessia shrugged. She concluded that he was only saying that to provoke her and hurt her as part of some wicked revenge plan. She refused to believe that Benjamim had anything to do with this situation.“Stop pretending you know me,” she shouted at him, but Fred remained unfazed. “You have no idea what I’m capable of.”A small laugh escaped his lips, showing his disdain for her words. It was clear how much Fred was enjoying himself. Yet, he ha

    BeforeBenjamim was going to be admitted that day. As he prepared to spend the day secluded in the hospital, he reflected on recent events. Alessia had deceived him once again. Every time he came to this conclusion, he felt like a fool.She had baited him, clouding his mind to make him think Antonella had lied about Adam, and he fell into her trap once more. Feeling guilt consume him, he grabbed his phone and called Fred.It had been a few days since his mother's death, and Benjamim knew Fred would still mourn for many years. However, Benjamim needed a favor and was certain Fred wouldn’t refuse.He didn’t give any explanations over the phone; he only ordered Fred to come to the hospital urgently because he would soon undergo surgery. Fred didn’t question him. He hung up and did as Benjamim requested, arriving at the hospital in less than half an hour.For a brief moment of panic, Fred thought the worst might have happened. He was visibly concerned about Benjamim’s health; after all, t

  • The billionaire's secret son   Chapter 104

    Alessia paced back and forth in the small room on the top floor of the old factory. Recently, the place has become quite busy.Enrico had hired new workers; the machines were running again, but her life remained stuck, monotonous, and dull ever since the day she was abandoned at the altar and thrown out of her home.Some days, she felt like she was going to lose her mind. She could no longer walk through the streets of the town without being pointed at as the woman who deceived Benjamim Dylon with a fake pregnancy. The news of her wedding had made headlines for days, and there were still people talking about it.Alessia considered that perhaps she would never live in peace again.The worst part of all was knowing that he and Antonella were closer now, after he found out about Adam. Alessia loved him and could no longer hide how much she wanted him back.When the factory bell rang, she huffed in frustration. She put on her cap, grabbed the bucket placed by the door, and descended the o
