“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

“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

“Right. But know this, brother.” Lorenzo’s mouth hovered near Arthur’s ear, a smile like a razor ghosting his lips. “The next time I cross this perimeter, it’ll be for you.”“You… you don’t know what you’re talking about.” Arthur trembled, every muscle rigid with fear.“I’m sure we both do so let’s not play dumb.” Lorenzo’s eyes flicked to Agnes. “And you too, Agnes.”“W… what… me? What are you even saying? Are you insane?!” Agnes pushed between them and grabbed his collar. “You are going to let go of Shane right now!”Lorenzo only stared at her for a while, then darted his gaze back to his father who looked like he was struggling on which side to pick.And although it was evident which one he had, he still didn’t feel good about that.Aaron, his father siding him?That doesn’t seem like the kind of shit he’d thought he would experience.“He was only being childish. You can’t punish him just because of what he did. Leilani didn’t die, did she? She survived the fire, right? Let my son

Although the drive, all Leilani did was stare at Lorenzo, as if it was bizarre to her. Maybe because the thought of him driving had never crossed her mind, but right now, this man looked hot as hell as he controlled the steering wheel with one hand, while he held her hand with his other hand. Leilani had no idea where the sudden display of affection was coming from. No, it’s not as if this was his first time being so affectionate with her.. But, this time around, it felt different. Like they had crossed the line they had set from the start. Their agreement that he was only going to help her and they would divorce afterwards. It was as though there was nothing of the sort between them, and as if they had only started as two people who loved each other. This man was everything and more to her, and she feared that the moment she gave a name to this growing feeling she had for him, she would lose him. He would suddenly come back to his senses and then break their marriage And wh

“There was a man,” Lorenzo began, his tone light, and conversational, the kind that chilled the room far more than a threat ever could. He leaned back in his chair, fingers tapping lazily against the armrest. “This man lived behind a mask. Ran an empire, yet no one truly knew his face. He liked it that way. Anonymity has its perks, you know?”Jonathan shifted in his seat, uneasy.“One day,” Lorenzo continued, “while this man was at a café across from one of his own subsidiary companies, he saw someone. A man he didn’t care much for at first… until he saw his wife.”Jonathan’s stomach twisted. “Lorenzo…”“He thought she was beautiful,” Lorenzo went on as if he hadn’t heard. “So beautiful that he found himself curious about who she was, what she did, why her smile didn’t quite reach her eyes. So he dug. Into her life. Into her husband’s. Watched from the shadows for months that bled into years. And what did he find?” He paused, then smiled coldly. “The man was cheating.”Jonathan’s eye
