“What do you think you're doing, Benjamim?” Ignoring her words, he led her to his office and sat her down in front of his desk. Then he walked around to close the door, realizing it was already too late.

Carlota pushed the door open and looked Benjamim in the eyes threateningly. At the same moment, Antonella jumped from the chair and stood up.

"Are you going to keep challenging me?" Confused and hurt, Carlota was ready to confront him and show who was really in charge, “You will marry Alessia in three days, and I’ll gather the partners to find a replacement for you.”

The next words died in Benjamim’s throat as he loosened his tie, as if it were choking him. Right behind him, Antonella felt shockwaves hit her as she watched Benjamim stagger back.

“You don't need to do this,” Antonella's voice echoed through the room. Raising her chin, she walked towards them and stood in front of Carlota, saying, “I’ll resign right now and leave the city.”

Benjamim’s eyes widened. What had he expected?

  • The billionaire's secret son   Chapter 76

    Certainly, that had been the longest night of Benjamim’s life. After all the confusion with Alessia, the house had fallen silent. Occasionally, he could hear Carlota’s sobs breaking the silence.No one was suffering more than she was.He took a shower, lay down, staring at the ceiling under the light of the bedside lamp, but couldn’t sleep. There were too many things that needed to be fixed, and he wouldn’t rest until he had put everything in its rightful place.He got up when the first rays of sunlight broke through the sky. He needed to hurry if he wanted to catch Antonella before she left Enrico’s house; God knows where to.Not only that, but he saw Carlota pacing back and forth in the middle of the living room, dressed in her white nightgown, her eyes red, and her hair disheveled. When she saw Benjamim, she rushed toward him.“We have to talk,” she said, raising her hand as if to touch him, but when Benjamim’s cold gaze reached her, she immediately recoiled.“I’m sorry, mother, bu

  • The billionaire's secret son   Chapter 75

    Alessia knocked her off the sofa and was already preparing to climb on top of Antonella to assault her, but Enrico appeared, grabbed Alessia by the arm, and pushed her away.Antonella closed her eyes, feeling an instant headache. Her blurred vision caught the shock on Alessia’s face as she realized Enrico was defending her. It was astounding that he would defend her after saying so many times how much he rejected Antonella.“You must’ve hit your head difficult to defend this filthy woman,” she got up, furious, yelling at her father. “Where’s your old speech about Antonella being dead to you?”Alessia's words hit Antonella's heart directly. It wasn’t a surprise to her that Enrico detested her, especially after Francesca’s death, but it had only been an idea in her mind, an assumption. No one had ever said it so clearly before.Enrico looked at Antonella, noticing her eyes filling with tears.“Shut up, Alessia!” spit escaped between his teeth, and his face turned red. “I allowed her to

    Alessia’s emotions froze when she looked into Benjamim's eyes and saw darkness in them. Her intention had always been to make him love her, but incredibly, she had achieved the opposite.Now, he despised her—not only him, but Enrico and Carlota as well. The faces in front of her were filled with hurt, hatred, and resentment.As if Benjamim had nothing more to say, he turned his back to leave, but Alessia didn’t want to let everything end like that. She lunged toward him, grabbing him with all the strength she could muster, and begged, her eyes full of tears.“You have to forgive me, Benjamim.” Her breathless pleas, mixed with his contemptuous glances, made Alessia feel utterly worthless. “I love you, and I wouldn’t know how to live without your love.”“Let go of him immediately.” Carlota rushed toward Alessia, grabbing her by the hair and pulling her away from Benjamim. “I trusted you, we all trusted you, and look what you’ve done, Alessia.”Carlota was out of control, staring at her

    Benjamim parked the car in front of his house. He paused for a moment, staring at the place, which still had a few lights on inside. He had no idea what he would find in there, and if he had known that Enrico and Alessia were inside, he certainly wouldn’t have gone in.Not only that, but he checked the time on his watch. It was three in the morning on that cold and lonely night. At this very moment, he imagined that he would be married to a great liar if Fred hadn’t been arrested.He caught himself wondering how he had managed to stay with Alessia for so long, and why he had considered marrying her as his only option. Likewise, he probably already knew all the answers but just didn’t feel ready to accept them.He stopped in front of the door, looking around. Not a soul was in sight. He took the keys out of his pocket, inserted them into the lock, and turned it, opening the door.It wasn’t until Benjamim turned on his heel to head toward the stairs that he noticed Enrico, now standing

    Benjamim looked into her eyes, trying to decipher her. Then he looked away, lifting the glass to his lips and finishing the rest of his drink. He waited for his heart to stop beating so frantically as he formulated the right question to ask her.“How did you know I was here?” he asked, looking back at her and studying her closely.Antonella couldn’t maintain eye contact. She turned her head to the side and pulled her coat tighter around herself as she cleared her throat.“Where else would you go after leaving a woman at the altar?” she shot back, glaring at him with her question.An ironic smile tugged at Benjamim’s lips, and Antonella didn’t like it at all. She regretted those words the moment they left her mouth. A chill ran through her body as she imagined what his answer would be.She hadn’t come there to argue with Benjamim, but to understand his reasons.“You’d be surprised if I told you,” he said, lowering his head and looking at the empty glass in his hands, running his finger

  • The billionaire's secret son   Chapter 71

    Antonella was getting ready to close the factory and head home. She checked the time on the clock, and her heart sank. By now, Benjamim should be married to Alessia, and the two would be leaving for their honeymoon.It was strange to think that a lie had changed the entire course of the story. She should have been Benjamim’s wife, not Alessia. Dominique was absolutely right when she said that Alessia had gotten exactly what she wanted.She was thinking about all of this when she felt Fabricio’s touch on her shoulder. She twisted her neck, felt startled, and looked into the boy’s eyes as Fabricio touched her shoulder.“I didn’t mean to scare you,” he withdrew his hand almost immediately, “but look, isn’t that Dominique and Carmella?”He pointed across the street, and Antonella saw the figures of two women walking down the poorly lit road, almost running. The dim light and the distance made it difficult to recognize them immediately, but when Antonella was sure it was really them, she n
