Chapter 4

Dario, is a young and incredibly wealthy billionaire at just twenty-eight years old, was the epitome of success. Born into a family of business moguls, he inherited his father's empire, Wagner Biochemicals, which had been a prominent player in the biotech industry for generations. The company's headquarters is located here in the heart of London, England. You tell that’s why he offered Leora that kind of money, he doesn’t care about how much he gives out or spends ,he makes tones back.

Despite having the opportunity to bask in the luxury and prestige of the family business, Dario was an ambitious and driven individual who sought to make his mark in the world independently. With his innate entrepreneurial , he established his own venture, a cutting-edge technology firm named "Orion Innovations." This company focused on developing groundbreaking technologies in various industries, including renewable energy, artificial intelligence, and space exploration. He is really rich, with this kind money he can get women like Leora any day any time.

When you have this kind of money, you can do anything you want. Before he met Leora in that bar, he was once in love with a girl name Nina. The best girl he ever met in his life. He really loved her so much that he made her his fiancé. But everything turned sour when he discovered she was cheating on him with his best friend. No he doesn’t want to fall in love anymore or even get married. He just pay for s*x and can’t trust women anymore. Rather he plays them and breaks their hearts. Currently Leora is his next target to use he’s play boy games on.

Well he’s father needs a grandchild and have been on his neck to get married, but he doesn’t and this is breaking off the wonderful relationship he has with his dad.

Dario’s dad angrily. “"It's not just about having a grandchild, Dario. It's about building a family, a legacy. You need someone by your side, a partner to share your life with. Look at me, your mother has been my rock for decades."

Dario scoffed, feeling the weight of his past relationships bearing down on him. "Do you remember Nina?! The girl I loved and trusted with all my heart. She was supposed to be my fiancé, my wife, my future!. But she shattered that trust, cheated on me with my best friend! After that, I can't trust women anymore. They're all the same, Dad, just after money."

The dad shook his head in disappointment. "You can't generalize like that, son. Not all women are the same. You've let one bad experience define your view of love and commitment. You need to open your heart again, find someone who truly understands and cares for you."

"But why should I, Dad? I have everything I want without being tied down. I can enjoy my life, travel, and explore my passions without any obligations to someone else," Dario retorted.

"You're missing the point, Dario," his dad replied firmly. "Love isn't just about convenience or pleasure. It's about finding someone who complements you, supports you, and brings out the best in you.

Dario grew frustrated his voice growing louder. "You don't understand me at all! I don't want to love again, I don't want to get married, and I certainly don't want to be tied down to someone for the rest of my life. I won't let anyone hurt me like Nina did!"

But he’s dad still persisted "I understand that you've been hurt, son, but you can't let that dictate your entire life. It's time to heal and move on. You deserve happiness son.”

Dario walking out angrily. “Happiness?! I am happy dad.” He screamed.

Despite the wealth and success, Dario's heart remained guarded, locked away from the possibility of love. Until he could confront his past and come to terms with his fears, the walls around his heart would continue to isolate him from the genuine connection he so desperately needed.He walked to his car and drove off.

Getting married was one of the wishes he’s father wants before he dies. He have achived a lot already he just needs he’s son to get married at least and now he has shot his heart out from love and getting married, he isn’t happy anymore.

Dario drove off somewhere to calm his self down, he was thinking and then he remember Leora, so he decided to call her but her number isn’t going through. He called again but no responds still until he decided to stop.

Leora on the other, got worried and remember her decision to stop this life she’s living and decided again she won’t call Dario back or pick he’s call. Sitting alone in her apartment was pacing anxiously as she clutched her phone tightly.

Amidst the internal struggle, Leora's phone rang again, and she glanced at the screen to see Dario's name flashing. The temptation to pick up was strong, but she resisted. Instead, she turned off her phone, silencing the call.

Meanwhile, Dario found himself frustrated as he repeatedly attempted to reach Leora, only to encounter silence on the other end of the line. He wasn't used to his calls being ignored or rejected by ladies, and the feeling of not having control over the situation irked him. He even considered going to her apartment to talk in person.

He’s mind was clouded with lots of conflicting emotions, the heated argument with his dad. He couldn't stop thinking about Nina and the pain he had endured when she betrayed him. That pain had molded him into the person he was today – a man who distrusted love and relationships, seeing them as nothing more than a weakness to exploit.

As Leora refused to pick up the call he decided to let it slide and went on to find something fun to do that will help to clear his head and make him calm down.
