Catelyn wasn't sure if this was the right time, but she was curious to know the item that was discovered.She dialed her father's number and climbed onto her bed."Hello.""Dad, how are you?" She inquired,"I'm well." He responded."I saw your text. We are in Greece now...""You shouldn't be on the call with me now. You should be with your husband." Mr. Guardo said, causing Catelyn to immediately counter, saying,"No... I think he's doing something now. You can tell me whateveris important." "Catelyn. I'll call you tomorrow. There's something I have to do now. Stay with your husband, I'll keep you updated if you need to know urgently. I'll handle things from here." Mr. Guardo said, causing Catelyn to nod.She knew her father wanted the Martinez treasure for himself; she did too, and her father gets it, which means she's gotten it too.At the time of the marriage, she had no idea Ethan was Martinez's son, but unfortunately, when Ethan went to Guardo's Villa to inform Mr. Guardo of his

"Father!" Xavier said calmly, before pulling out a chair—the only available chair at the dinner table was at the end of the table."You came late! This is not the usual time for dinner in my home." Alexander said nonchalantly as he used his fork to carefully cut the meat on his plate before taking it up to his mouth,Xavier didn't respond to him; instead, he opened the dishes in front of him and saw that they were empty."I knew you'd come but late just to spite me!" Alexander paused, snapped his fingers, and beckoned for the chef to come over to the table."And so I thought, you don't regard me highly enough to honor my invitation and at least be punctual, the same way I'd treat you like you're not part of my family. You will only eat the remainder of my food." He added, causing Xavier to chuckle softly.Xavier sat back on his chair and responded, "It's funny you speak of regard when the first word you could say to your son that you haven't seen for days is... You're late!" "You loo

"You're one naughty girl. Two hours straight doesn't seem to satisfy, does it?" Xavier said, gripping her breast so tightly before pinching her nipple. "You should learn to tame yourself!" He warned, patting her hair with his pale hands. Xavier turned to the door and was about to walk out of it before asking again, "What are you going to wear to your room?" "I'll figure that out myself. You don't seem to fancy me like you did before." Lisa said, trying to play the victim. Xavier knew what she was trying to do. A smirk crept into his face as he thought, "She wants to play, then that's fine. We can play!" "Should I go up to your room and get a dress for you?. I don't want even your real brother to see this body. A body that you've made mine." He said, but Lisa didn't respond. "We could be together... Xavier, that could be possible!" Lisa said. "And have your mother haunt me for the rest of my life?" Xavier asked, arching his brows. "We both know that my mother does not frighten

They went up to Alexander's study. Alexander's study was so big, and the right side of the room was filled with books, while the left side had other things there.A shelf with so many scrolls, a bar counter, and a coffee machine."Who cares for a drink?" Alexander said as he walked towards the bar counter in his study. He took one of his red wine collection and three glasses.Placing them on the table, he poured wine for himself and left the bottle on the table for the gentlemen to help themselves.Xavier narrowed his eyes, trying to be patient. Patience has always been his style, but unfortunately, today was not the day he had patience on his side because he needed to get back home for his medications. He poured some wine for himself and left the wine on the table for Brandon to help himself, and he did help himself."Your father was a good man, Brandon. I heard about his tales." Alexander said before sipping on his wine."If you say my father is a good man, then I'd say the same fo

Catelyn realized that there was absolutely no need for her to argue with Ethan, as his mind was already made up."I should start packing then." She said, getting up from the bed."Okay." Ethan responded.He left Catelyn alone in the room and walked towards the balcony.A lot was on his mind; he just couldn't stay calm as he felt that he was completely needed at home.He soon received a call from Cersei: "When is your flight?" She inquired, sounding worried."Is anything wrong?" Ethan inquired."They're rumors, Ethan." She said, causing Ethan to pause for a second, arching his brows, and he asked,"What kind of rumors?""It's on the news... Since this morning.""What's on the news?" Ethan asked as he quickly picked up the remote control in the sitting room and turned on the TV."They say you're Gabriel Martinez's heir." Cersei informed, and in that very moment, Catelyn hurried into the sitting room."Ethan...." She paused, seeing that Ethan already had the TV on and was on the news cha
