Dylan chose to answer his father's first name instead of the first make because he tried to stay low. Now that everyone knew him to be the chairman of the Sterling company, he knew what to expect already.People envied his father for his wealth, status, and success. The hate and jealousy were not only from one person, and Dylan had just one name, Romero. Over the years, there was one thing Dylan figured out: the only few families that bore such names were on the prominent side of the country—where the Choi family resided."You know what we have figured out? Our information now is not even valid... I feel this was..."Reckless?" Dylan completed the words."You must have your reasons," Natalia said before pouring more wine for Dylan and then pouring for herself.She sat on the chair before sipping from the wine, placing both hands on the table, and she asked, "I'm only to follow your command, and considering we've come, I thought I'd be the first you'd call when wanting to make a decis

Just as Natalia and Dylan were rounding off their conversation, Dylan's phone rang; it was a call from Micheal."Hello! Dylan! There's something really important that you need to know!" She said, causing Micheal to furrow his brows, shifting his gaze to Natalia, who seemed to have heard Micheal's worried voice from the phone."What is it?" Dylan asked abruptly; with his tone, one would know that he was not just asking for Micheal to respond, he was demanding her to respond."I received mail from one of the numerous reporters calling...""And?""They mentioned something about knowing how you were able to grow your wealth, and their claims seemed disturbing." She responded."What are their claims?" Dylan asked almost immediately after she ended her sentence."That your means of acquiring such wealth is not pure, and they'd need to take you to court for questioning." Micheal said, causing Natalia to let out a long sigh that she didn't think she was holding."Okay, find the most trusted l

"Welcome..." Rosanna said, trying to sit up while Dylan was still standing by the door, stunned."Mr. Dylan, we have been waiting for you to get here! Welcome! Please seat..." A girl in a baby pink gown said. She was with a videographer who already had his camera set."How did they get in here?" Dylan asked the nurse that was standing beside Rosanna."My grandmother. She informed the reporters that they might find you here for the numerous questions they've had about you since you revealed your identity to everyone," Rosanna said.Dylan was still confused; he wondered what made Vera, Rosanna's grandmother, think she had that right."She only wanted to prove that she has a close and good relationship with you," Rosanna added, causing Dylan to let out a long breath.This was how it worked; everybody was always wanting something, and even if he believed Rosanna was not like that, he would be right to believe that Rosanna could die pleasing her family, so she would do whatever would give

"Did you tell her that I like lemon cake?" Natalia asked."No, she's not aware that you're coming!" Dylan said, causing Natalia to nod."You're one fine fish. What's your name?" Natalia asked."Rosanna," she responded.."Oh, from the Milma group?" Natalia inquired."Yes, from there!" Rosanna responded with her eyes fixed on her food.She seemed to be nervous at the dinner table, and Natalia didn't really blame her for it; she knew she had an aura that most times made people uncomfortable around her."So when do we start to talk about business?" Natalia asked before taking a spoonful of rice into her mouth."Not during dinner, Natalia; after dinner," Dylan responded.Rosanna found that Dylan was being awkward around her, and for some reason, she just couldn't handle it."Em... I have to go to the company today; the company needs me to be running smoothly," Rosanna muttered, causing Natalia to almost choke on her phone.After Rosanna left, Natalia scoffed, "The company needs her, or the

After the conversation, Thomas left the room."How are you feeling now?" Dylan asked, arching his brows."I'm good. I'm feeling even better now that I see how well the company is thriving!" She said, causing a sly smile to appear on Dylan's face, saying,"I'm glad that your family is no longer on your neck, forcing you to marry anyone. You have the right to have a choice in that!" Rosanna nodded, smiling at his words.Dylan immediately excused himself, leaving Rosanna lost."What's wrong?" She kept asking herself. It was only yesterday that he kissed her and called her his girlfriend in front of everyone. It was only some days ago that he sent her flowers, so what exactly had changed now?She decided to take him some healthy tea. As she got closer to his room, she noticed that the door of his study was open, so she immediately assumed that he was not in his room but in his study.She opened the door properly and said, "I brought you some tea. That's if you'd like it..." She paused ha

A sly smile appeared on his lips; he knew exactly what the head of the Choi family was trying to do.He wanted to keep them waiting, knowing that Dylan would not just come to his home to have a silly chat."This is the most unexpected event!" The head of the Choi family said, walking into the sitting room.Dylan smiled and stretched his hand forward as the man got close to him. "I'm glad that you could have me.""I heard you said it was important, and most importantly, I heard it could benefit me," the head of the Choi family said, causing Dylan to steal a glance at Michael."Mr. Choi does not attend unimportant meetings," she said."I mean, what would the famous Choi want me for if it's not something that could benefit the both of us!" he said, causing Dylan to flash a smile at him."You like benefits.""I believe all business men like benefits." Mr. Choi said with so much confidence and Dylan believed that he wasn't wrong because in one way or the other, every good businessman was i

"This is a sign, Dylan! A sign that we are on the right path!" Natalia said, smiling.Dylan knew what she meant; for their plan to work out, he knew he needed to make some sacrifices.Natalia had already made some sacrifices, she believed herself to be a Martyr and Dylan could not argue that with her."Do you have any connection with Hannah? He mentioned that he needed to discuss it with her before giving me a reply tomorrow." Dylan said, causing Hannah to smile slyly with her eyes on a shitload of people as she ran her eyes through what was written on it before answering Dylan's question."I know you went in there with the same aura you came in here with. Believe me, it would be hard for even me to resist anything you offer, most especially when you lay out all the benefits in front of me." Dylan chuckled at her words.That was something Dylan learned after his family was assassinated. The act of growing up with no parents, no parental figure, inculcated a lot of things in him."I le

"I should have known!" She said in a low voice. She tried stopping the tears from falling down from her eyes, but she was unsuccessful."I'm sorry. I wish...""Shhh..." Rosanna stopped him talking, took his phone, and flashed a small and gentle smile at him. "Just like everyone else. You ended up leaving." She said before walking out of the room, leaving Dylan alone.The second that his door was shut, Dylan fell on the bed and ran his hand through his hair.Next day.Dylan received news from his butler that Rosanna left the estate the previous day.Dylan frowned, saying, "And you let her leave at such an unholy hour?""I couldn't stop her, sir, and you hated being disturbed. I just had a security follow her from afar, making sure that she got to where she was headed safely," he informed, causing Dylan to nod."Okay." Dylan left for his office. On getting to the office, he recalled that he was yet to tell Natalia about the news.She would most definitely not be surprised, and what wo

"Okay. What is going on?" Natalia inquired."I want to find out who the Choi family spy is in my company." He informed, causing Natalia to chuckle softly before saying,"Do you think any of that would be necessary?" she asked, causing Dylan to chuckle softly at her words."Why would you think so?" he asked."Because now that you're about to get married to Mr. Choi's precious daughter, do you think he'd want to turn against this company again?" Cersei said.Dylan sat up on his chair, putting his palms together. He inquired, "Do you think Mr. Choi is the only enemy this company has? Everyone has their motive, and believe me, Mr. Choi had partners who were hating on this company too; the ones driven by a motive would not stop hating just because Mr. Choi’s daughter is about to wed me." Dylan said causing Natalia to nod."You're right, but how will finding out who Mr. Choi’s spy is aid you in knowing who your enemies are?" She inquired."If only you could think out of the box, you'd see a

“We don’t know them," Dylan said, sounding calm. Mr. Choi smiled at his words and rubbed his palm together before saying in a low voice,“I got you some flowers, Lady Hannah," Dylan said, getting to his feet before handing the flower he got to her."Thank you." She said, acknowledging how thoughtful he was."Dylan. I admire your success in the business world, and that is why I accepted to give my daughter's hand to you after so many suitors have come and I've rejected them," Mr. Choi said."But remember the terms you mentioned yesterday? I had my lawyer put them in writing so that a legal agreement could be signed." He added causing Dylan to nod."And?" Dylan inquired knowing that Mr. Choi would definitely have other terms.Dyla smiled, sipping from the wine in his glass cup before snapping his finger, signaling for the attention of his butler.The butler walked into the room almost immediately after he heard the sound; he came in with a brown envelope and handed it to Mr. Choi."Her
