Marcel's POVThe plan sounded really nice, so I didn't even protest against it."What's going on here?" Marco asked, pretending to be concerned."Marco, could you just fuck off? We both know you don't care about any of this. You're only bothered about your allowance.""Come on bro, it's not fair saying a thing like that to me.""Oh, you know what? I'll show you what's fair," I said, walking closer to him."That's enough, you two!" Mother yelled.But I didn't listen. I went ahead and slapped Marco. I had been wanting to do that for a very long time. Marco has always been a pain in the ass—all he ever does is gamble and party.Mother keeps protecting him, shielding him, and making sure he goes scot-free every time he does wrong. But even though I hated Marco's behaviour, I loved him, and I would choose him any day over that scumbag Raphael."Mom, can you see what your favourite son has done to my face?" he said, showing his face to Mom. "I swear I'm gonna hit him back.""You will do no

Mrs. Kensington's POV"Because," I said, unable to keep the triumph from my voice, "she went to NYU Langone for a test last week and was so desperate to keep the results private that she convinced her doctor to break hospital protocol."Gerrard frowned. "That doesn't necessarily mean—""Don't be naive," I cut him off. "Why would she need such secrecy if the test was negative? No, our little Diana is carrying the next Lorenzo heir."I dialled Serena's number, practically giddy with excitement. This was the leverage we needed. A pregnant Diana would be vulnerable in ways she had never been before. Motherhood changes everything – priorities shift, fears multiply. We could use that."Mom?" Serena's voice came through the line, eager and impatient. "Do you have news?""I do, my darling." I savoured the moment, picturing my daughter's face as I delivered the news. "Diana is pregnant."There was a gasp on the other end of the line. "You're sure?""Absolutely. She went to NYU Langone for a te

Mrs. Kensington's POV"Hey, Mom," Serena greeted, walking down to where I stood and hugging me.That was a first. Serena never hugs me first. Maybe she did that because Marcel was there, and he hugged me, too, so she probably didn't want to make things look weird.But whatever the reason was, I couldn't care less. I was glad she hugged me."Okay, so without wasting time, let's just head to the dining," I said, gesturing towards the dining table. "Barbara, you could set the table now!" I yelled.We all sat down around the table. Our dining table was not so elegant, but one could tell it was rich. The table was made with one of the most expensive marbles, painted black with gold diagram designs at strategic places on the table. The feet of the table were adorned with shiny glass materials that also carried gold-like structure designs on them. It was elegant but not the kind of elegance you would say for a dining at the Lorenzo dynasty.Shortly after, Barbara came and began to set the t

Diana’s POV It was getting close to dinner time. Raphael wasn't back yet, so I decided to go make dinner so that when he came back, he would eat and rest. Yes, I make our food myself; I didn't want a cook or a chef; I couldn't bring myself to trust any of them. Thus was the Lorenzo dynasty; I needed to be careful; so many people have a price, and I couldn't afford to make the mistake of getting a cook or a chef that's gonna be bought by Marcel and his mother, and then they ended up poisoning my food, or maybe leaking information to them.We had maids for cleaning though, we didn't need a driver neither do we need a gate man or a security officer, like you know we all stay in the Lorenzo dynasty, which has different floors and the first two floors I am not sure what's going on in there but the last three floors are where we lived.I said before that Gramps and Grandma Audrey stayed on the first floor, and then Gramps gave us the second floor, while Raphael's parent and siblings staye

Raphael's POV "A lot has really happened, sir; even some of your employees have resigned."My ears stood, my eyes widened in shock, it's no wonder why the company looked empty when I came in, but I just assumed most of them were slacking behind because I wasn't at work."So they actually left?" I asked again, just to be sure."I am sending you their names alongside their resignation letter.""Thanks, Maxwell."As I opened some of the letters, I saw that they dared to request two months' upfront salary. I laughed as I read them."Is there anything funny in the letters sir," Maxwell asked."Yes, a lot of things are funny in the letter, Maxwell", I paused, laughing "They are asking for two months' upfront salary when they haven't even worked.""Really?""Didn't you read the letters, Maxwell?""No, I didn't, sir, I wasn't supposed to; it Was directed to you, not even to the HR, but to you. It's why I left it; I assumed there might be some personal information they probably didn't want an
