Chapter 15
“What do you mean she is not there?”
Luciano yelled at the phone, he should have known the bitch would pull a fast one on him, maybe he let her off too calmly, or maybe she went for a walk like she did yesterday, the thought of that calmed him a little, she had nowhere to go in the first place.
“She is not here, the house is empty, sir,”
Martin responded.
“She wasn’t there when we got there yesterday either, find her, you have about seven hours to do so,”
He said and hung up, he hoped to God that she only went for a walk and not that she ran away, where could she possibly run off to? he should have made them continue watching her but the fact that she hadn’t thought of leaving or running away since he told her that he owns her made him sort of lose his guard around her a little.
“Not like she can hide from me,”
He said with a smile, she may not know it yet because she might not need it yet but her passport and identification cards are both with him, that was part of the deal when he got her.
That was the whole reason the deal happened anyway he would never have slashed such a huge amount of money if he wasn’t going to own her completely, plus he knew she had no money, he did run a background check on her and she was completely poverty-stricken, from the lowest part of the food chain, well marriage to him would mean she would get money, which is a win-win for the both of them, he just hope she was smart enough not to do anything foolish because his kindness can only run for a short term.
“Yoey?”
He yelled for his personal assistant who ran in, he should have sent Yoey instead but they had things to take care of earlier so he had sent Martin and Sloan along with the stylist and make-up artist he had hired to dress her up for the event they were attending together tonight, he sent them early because he knew just how long it takes for women to doll up, he wanted to start showing her off to his acquaintances that were close to his grandfather, that way they will already be talking about her to Don before he introduces her to him, as much as getting married was all Don’s idea, he still didn’t want to just dump her on him like that, he needed words about her to reach him before he goes to him with her, the crazy old man can be very difficult to deal with and he might have a lot to talk about if he just dumps her on him.
“Sir? You called?”
Yoey said.
“Yes, there seem to be some issues with her, though I think it is too early to panic,”
He said knowing that Yoey would understand who he was talking about, Yoey was against bringing her in and everything he planned and had been bold enough to tell him but he didn’t listen to people and he wasn’t about to start now.
“Boss, honestly, do you need to do this? I am sure Don would not give the empire to your cousin knowing what great loss it would be,”
Yeoy said.
“I told you before, I am not about to take any chances, and besides, you were the one convincing me to do as he said, why are you suddenly changing your mind?”
Luciano asked throwing the file he had been going through before the call had come on the table.
“That’s because I think you are making a mistake for once, you never make mistakes but this time, I sincerely think you should think this through now that it is still early.”
Yoey advised, it was amusing to see his usually obedient and calm assistant advising him.
“Why do you think this is all a mistake?”
He asked out of curiosity, nothing anyone would say would make him change his mind anyway, not when he had already planned everything out in his head.
“Forgive me for speaking over you but I can’t keep it in,”
Yoey said rubbing his head.
“Go ahead,”
Luciano urged, giving him his full attention, even though he wasn’t going to follow what he says, there was no arm in hearing him out.
“For one, she is not your type,”
“This has nothing to do with whether she is my type or not Yoey, I am just going to wife her, please don, secure the empire for a hundred more years of smooth running and that’s it.”
Luciano responded, he had plans and he always follow through.
“Well, I don’t think it will be as easy as you make it seem, she has no education, she is not trained for the things we do, neither is she well mannered to be your wife,”
Yoey pointed out most of the flaws that he already knew about, aside from the fact that she wasn’t well-mannered like Yoey had pointed out, she also looks very shy and timid, maybe that wasn’t a flaw anyway, the whole reason she was what he settled for instead of the usual models and actresses that he dated was because she had less and fewer chances of being greedy and wanting more.
“I know everything Yoey and I still would do this with her.”Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Luciano said.
“She is a debtor’s daughter, I understand your need to get a wife and your distrusted over the women you roll with but I don’t think she should be your pick, aside from everything else I mentioned, her background is zero, don’t you think it will affect your brand if anyone finds out about her background?”
Yoey asked, he looked genuinely concerned but his worries were the least thing Luciano was worried about, for him the poorer, the better…
