HIS CONTRACT HER DESTINY

Chapter2

Lorenzo's pov

I am the king of my domain, De Luca Enterprises, My word is law and my decision is final. The business was given to me by my father, but was further built under ruthless determination.My business is a reflection of my own personality: cold, ruthless and unforgiven.

I don't tolerate weakness or incompetence. My employees know what's expected of them,and those who fail to deliver are quickly dealt with. I've made my share of enemies. In the mafia world , you either swim or sink, And am a shark.

Everyday of my life is filled with meetings, deals and negotiation. I'm always looking for the next angle to exploit, my mind is always racing, calculating market trends, anticipating my component's move. I have a clear vision for my country. De Luca Enterprises is the first top Enterprise in Italy. We have other companies in different countries. They know me, I'm the don. I take my business seriously and in check.

My personal life is a different story. My parents, Especially my mum , have been pressuring me to settle down, but I don't need any woman in my life.

My business is my priority, and I won't let anything or anyone distract me.

As I sit in my office, looking out over the city,I felt a sense of satisfaction. I've built something remarkable , something that would outlast me and am not done yet.

I stood at the floor to ceiling windows of my penthouse, gazing out at the city light twinkling below. Rose came in, she was just a fling, I have s*x with her and that's all, no strings attached. She flinged her hands around my neck, and whispered “Daddy are you ready for me”, my bulge was out , I just need to get over this. I threw her to the bed, she took her clothes off quickly, She gave me a blow job, her eyes were red and puffy from choking. I f****d her dirty p***y, till she was screaming my name. The next morning she was out , she knew the rule. This was my life, just pleasure and nothing in between.

I rushed down to my parent's house,as I drove on, our butler. Mr Alvarez, he greeted me and took my coat, he has been our butler since when I was 5,he knew about the business. “Mr Lorenzo, welcome”, he said. “How are you Alvarez?”, I greeted him back. I entered, Aurora rushed to hug me, she was my only care, I loved her. “Loren, have missed you”, she said sweetly,” I missed you my love, where's mum?”, I saw her, the woman who gave birth to me, the first woman who I 've cherished from the onset. “ Oh Lorenzo, my child, you're back, did you bring a lady this time?”. I rolled my eyes, she's on it again, always persisting that am of ripe age of settling down, “I need my grandchildren”,She cooed, Mum when next am coming, I'll bring a lady to marry. A smile replaced

the grump she had on her face,” I wasn't sure of what I said, but I'll find a way to get it done”,I concluded.

Adrian came out , just greeted me and went back inside, he's a man of few words, he doesn't talk much. He has been that way since we were kids. My father hugged me, I was the complete duplicate of him, I took his eyes, hair and mostly, his ruthlessness. He asked about the business, but he knew that we were the top most in the country. “ "Está yendo bien, papá.”(It's doing good papa). He nodded.

On my way, I visited one of our branches who were recruiting new staff. A girl stumbled through the job interview, she was looking sad,her innocence and her vulnerability radiating from every pore. I intentionally bumped into her, testing her reaction. She apologized profusely, her striking blue doe eyes were filled with tears, I wanted to hug her that instant,”What was wrong with me”, something about her drew me in. I asked if she passed the job interview?, she was shocked how I knew about it,I just made an excuse, she was sad again. I offered her a meeting, a proposal that would change her life and now am curious if she would take the bait.

My mind wandered to my mum, her constant pressure to marry and settle down. I have no intentions of getting a wife, I won't be distracted, my business is my priority. But this lady was different. I knew mum would like her instantly.

I asked her name, and she said “Alina”, such a beautiful name, but I acted rudely and ungentle to her, she sensed it , she was not comfortable. I gave her my card, requesting to meet up, she looked at me and took the card. I turned around left before she could even read what was on the card.

Getting to the office, I kept thinking about Alina, she was all on my mind, Theo came in, he has been my childhood friend for a long time which he's still, and my second in command. “Theo, can you find out about this lady, Alina Gomez, I need feedback before evening, he nodded and went out”, I was getting interested about this particular lady.

Theo came in, and dropped her document, she was 22, a graduate, she won't be doing any job,I smirked. She has a sick mother, wow!, her debts had not been paid and she's in need of money for the surgery, I wheeled my chair and smiled.

The next day, I was informed that a lady was looking for me, I knew it was Alina. I came out and I was greeted by a stunning jewel, she was looking simple and perfect at the same time. I had to act unbothered, I put on a stoic face and replied rudely. I offered her a contract marriage in exchange for her mother's bills and financial freedom. She was speechless and shocked,” what do you mean?”, she asked, “I meant what I said”, I wonder

if she'll agree.
