Margarette thought Xavier was just spewing bullshits, but he was damn serious when he said he will buy a mini sport's car for his daughter a day after he said he will. She didn't know where he got it or where did he even found a edition of a car like that, but she shouldn't be worrying about that at all because he was filthy rich and can afford everything. He sure has a lot of connection.After they went to the mall, Margarette was shocked to find out that there was a pink mini car in the huge garden being displayed and all shiny."Hope you like it, princess." Xavier put down his daughter on the floor and made her run towards her brand new car."Wow! It's so beautiful! Thank you so much, daddy!" Xavier was literally beaming with joy as she jumped inside her own car."What the," Margarette uttered.He wrapped his arm on her waist and planted a kiss on her temple. "The color suits our princess, right?"She gulped in disbelief. "You bought that… for her?""Yes, I did.""Is that a real car
It was late at night when they suddenly heard a loud commotion outside the house. There was an exchange of gunshots that could be heard even inside the house. Xavier was alerted."W-What's going on?" Margarette asked nervously. They were sleeping in the same bed together with their daughter when the two of them heard the loud banging of gunshots. Her heart started beating so fast in her chest, syncing into the beat of each gunshots."Stay here, baby," he whispered as he stood up. He opened the secret drawer under the floor and took two guns. One is for him and one is for his wife, just in case."This room has a double security lock on it, so you're safe as long as you stay here. Please, don't leave this room, okay?""H-How about you? Where are you going?""I'm gonna check what was happening in the house." He leaned down and kissed her forehead, then he kissed their daughter's. "I'll be back.""Please, be safe.""I will, baby. I love you."Tears were already forming in the corner of her
His eyes were mainly focused on the man who was standing a few distance from him wearing his expressionless face as well. The man was as powerful as him. He was way older than Xavier and was already old, but that doesn't mean the power he holds cannot level to what Xavier has."Return my daughter, Ivanov," Leonardo said. His men wad pointing a gun against Xavier, and so did the latter to the opponent. "Enough of your bullshits. You will only hurt her with your obsession with her! She deserves more than that!""You don't know what you are talking about, Leonardo. Margarette and Xaire are my family, I have the rights to keep them in my own house. I am just claiming what is mine to begin with. You just took them from me from the very first place!" "Imbecile! You were a groomer, manipulating, and abusive man who took advantage of my innocent daughter! You have no rights to claim them as they are not your property, neither are they something you can just play with. I am telling you this no
The door opened, revealing an old maid who immediately locked gaze with her. Margarette immediately went to ask."Is something that matters? How's Xavier? Is he okay? Tell me he isn't hurt or something," she said, her voice was laced with fear and worry as she looked at the old maid. It was Gloria.She flashed a motherly smile at her and nodded her head in response. "He is good, ma'am."She let out a sigh of relief. She almost cried at how much of a relief she is right now. Thank God he was safe.But she remembered something."M-My father?" she asked upon remembering her father.Again, the old woman nodded her head. "Both are good, ma'am."She was relieved, but she couldn't help but to wonder as well. Her brows creased. "What happened?""Mr. Ivanov wants your presence in his office room. Please, follow me." With that, Gloria turned over her heels and started walking away.Margarette was relieved that the two men were okay, but she felt nervous right now. She doesn't know why.Instead o
Leonardo has a point, though. Henry and his father were sketchy. Plus, given the fact that Alexander's brother, Mario, was in love with Sofia, Xavier's mother, before, did add up to everything. Plus the fact that they've got a child together. Xavier didn't know the whole truth between their history and why Henry was even born, but Xavier remembered that Mario was obsessed with power. They once fought with his father because Mario wanted to take over the family's business, but since he wasn't the first born, he wasn't able to get it, so now that he's got a son, he will make sure that Henry will have the position he failed to get when he was at their age.Unfortunately, even though their father was weakened after their mother died, Mario was still not able to take over the position, and even now that Henry weakened him by targeting his siblings and his wife, Zeus was there to help him manage the family business, so Henry failed again to destroy them."You good?" Zeus asked. It's been a d
"I didn't think it would be easier to catch you," Zeus said while laughing and sipping on his drink tauntingly. "You disgusting pig."Mario was glaring at his nephews while his mouth was being covered with a tape.Xavier looked at him coldly. "I would've told you why we took you, but guess you don't need any explanation because you already know what this is all about. Don't you?"Mario mumbled something and tried to wiggle from the grip from the chair, but to no avail."I've heard something, uncle." He pulled a chair and sat in front of his so-called uncle who looked so defenseless and pitiful. "And I want you to be honest with us. I might spare your life."Zeus, from leaving against the wall, straightened up and opened the door when he heard a knock.And there goes their emotionless yet beautiful baby brother."Areesh," Xavier said as he engulfed his brother in a hug before he kissed his forehead."What's going on here?" Areesh asked. His voice barely had an emotion in it. "Is that un
After the issue between Mario and them has resolved, Xavier wasted no time in pursuing the love of his life.Wearing a casual white shirt, black jeans, and a white sneakers, he pulled his sunglasses up and stopped in front of Ferrero's manor in Italy. It has been a long, hectic 2 weeks since he fixed everything up and now that everything has already been taken care of, he will now pursue another thing.And that is to capture Margarette's heart for the second time around.He took a deep, nervous breath as he exited the car and took his bouquet along with paper bags containing different types of food to bride on them. He missed them…He missed his family.He missed her so much.He pressed on the doorbell. He would court her again, prove his worth, and show her how worth it she is of everything. He did this because he knew their second meeting wasn't a very ideal meet up. She deserves more than that. She deserves more than being kidnapped and hidden.As he pressed on the doorbell of the
A couple of months have passed.Margarette has finally finished her college degree. There was a huge smile on her face to be able to accomplish something she only once dreamed of. She never thought this would ever happen. All her friends, family from her father's side, and some colleagues were there to witness her biggest day. They went to congratulate and greet her for achieving her dream to finish her studies. Her father, Leonardo was present to put the medals on her along with Xaire as they are the two significant ones why she pursued studying in the first place."Congratulations!" Clarise had already given birth and was bringing her newborn with her to Ferrero's mansion. They were gonna celebrate her graduation over there."Thank you so much for coming, Clarise. You don't know how much it means a lot to me. I appreciate it a lot, thank you.""You're welcome. Wow, you're graduating now. Wishing for you to become a licensed nurse soon.""We'll manifest for that."The both of them l
