Chapter 108
“If CEO Caden is your father, then why do you want to destroy his company?”. His yet to understand why a daughter who recently knew who her real father was, would be willing to destroy her father’s company and ruin all her ancestors had labored and spent their life trying to raise.
Aurora is also a Diego. She’s a daughter of that family and subsequently will become a shareholder in the Diego group. All that she needs is for Caden Diego to acknowledge her and that settles it.
Looks like fortune was smiling at his grandfather when he promised the late patriarch of the Diego family that Santiago, his grandson, would marry his granddaughter.
“To vent my revenge for all I had Suffered from them and if you would hear everything, I guess you would approve of my actions Santiago” Aurora declared.
After Santiago gets to know what part Tola Diego played in making his mother end up in the hospital, he would even go outside his limits to ruin not only the Diego group, but the lives of Eve Diego and her mischievous mother.
“Didn’t you watch me go to jail and did nothing, weren’t you mad at me for aborting your child and poisoning your mother? Didn’t you Santiago, answer me?” Aurora inquired.
She also stood up and was standing directly behind Santiago. Santiago didn’t see her face now how wronged she looked but can tell from her voice that she was at the verge of accusing him.
Santiago blinked his eyes in a difficult way and bit his lower lip. The guilt he felt in the past came afresh, flooding his thoughts.
“You didn’t abort my child, and my mother was not poisoned. That information became a bit late when I knew it” Santiago answered calmly, despite his guilty conscience.
“Glad you now know that I did not poison your mother. Do you want to know about what happened that day?” Aurora inquired, staring at the back view of the man she loved.
“I already know Aurora. Mrs. Logan told me everything. And the hospital tests and examination declared that mum was only reacting to something she’s allergic to and not being poisoned like you claim to have done.” Santiago replied.
He more than anyone else wants to find out who that scoundrel is that poisoned his mother. He’d not forgiven whoever the person was that caused a rift between him and Aurora.
Aurora chuckled audibly and Santiago heard it. “Do you want to know who tried to hurt your mother?” Aurora asked, wearing a grin.
Santiago squinted and turned to face her sharply. He stared at her grinning face and suspected that she must definitely have known who that fellow was.
And if he could lay his hands on that fellow, he would be able to track down those kidnappers who abducted Mrs. Logan and her Son and equally find out who that person was that separated him and Aurora for years.
But before he could ask Aurora to spill the beans, there was someone at the door. The doorbell rang and Santiago guessed that the boutique he made an order from must have brought the clothes for Aurora.
Aurora stopped grinning and stared at Santiago’s cold face. The latter gave a nod and looked towards the lounge. Quickly Aurora retracted back into the Lounge.
She doesn’t need to be told to go into the lounge, because she knows she’s looking like a teenage girl inside Santiago’s shirt that’s like an overflowing gown on her.
Santiago went to open the door and saw Jasper Milo holding a box of dress. No doubt, Jasper Milo had accepted it from the courier man and signed. Without a word, Santiago collected it from him and would have shut the door but Jasper Milo raised his index finger implying he had something to say.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Huh…. President Axel, I was wondering but felt I should ask you; which contraceptive should I get for Miss Aurora?”
Santiago almost puked out blood. Jasper Milo was implying that he had been engaged in a romantic moment with Aurora and possibly torn her clothes hence he had placed an order. He stared at him with a frosty chilling look before shutting the door on his face.
Jasper Milo sighed audibly and chuckled. What now, he was only trying to help and salvage his boss from having his girlfriend pregnant again. He has Sam and Samantha already and should plan properly before having another kid.
He stood there stupefied before the door until his phone started ringing. Only then did he come back to his senses and answer the call “Hello”.
“This is Wale Jones, from the Starlight holding. May I ask if Miss Rowan is with your President?”. Wale Jones had expected Miss Aurora to be back from lunch. He checked her in her office several times but didn’t find her. It was only when her secretaries told him that CEO Rowan had gone out with President Axel of the Axel group.
He called her line immediately and the phone rang without being answered. He did several times and she didn’t answer. To be Sure that she was safe and free from harm’s way, he had to call President Axel’s assistant.
“Yeah CEO Rowan and President Axel are having a business meeting. She’s in safe hands, you don’t have to worry”Jasper Milo assured the fellow on the other end.
After the call ended, Jasper Milo walked towards the elevator and asked himself if his boss was really in a meeting with Miss Aurora? Perhaps they are really engrossed in the meeting that made his boss order a new dress.
