Chapter 29
Once I got home, I told her all that had happened today.
She couldn’t hide her excitement as she knew that I was now a shareholder again
“OMG, this just made my day. She jumps excitedly.
Her happiness is pure, something that is shown with a simple gesture.
I made my bear smile, it made me smile as well.
“How do you intend to work with the two companies? I mean, they almost do the same line of business” She asked while sending down.
One thing that differentiates my father’s company from mine, is dealing with individuals, while Laskay is all about larger enterprises and government work as well.
This is why it has an arrangement with Birdie’s father, who also does the same thing.
“I have a team that is built on trust and hard work. I’m not sure if I will let that go easily, there is nothing I can do about that.” I said to her,
She nodded, bringing her legs together as she held them while staring at me.
There was more to her face, there was an appreciation that was so evident in the looks that she was giving me.
My heart sings a little song, dancing to the tune of delight, even though I knew it was nothing.
She was only going to use me as much as she liked anyway, I would rather not get used to her knowing that once Eric and her sister got what they deserved, that would be all.
Inside of me, I knew all of this was true, but I’m not going to mand anyway, because I’m still here, and she is still here.

“I still can’t wrap my head around the reason you are hell–bent on helping me I just Occasionally I try to reason it out, and I know about your problem with your brother and how much you would rather not come back to the company, but you are doing all of those things you promised not to do, all because you want to help me with this revenge that I have haken a step on doing.
I wish there was a way in which I could show an

The only other way I know, I was not ready.
my mouth:
Both emotionally, my whole feelings are trapped in this space that I do not want to reason about.
“I always thought you were someone that I was going to fear for the rest of my life, who could have thought the same person would stand up for me? Will help me this way
The words are flowing out of my m

than l
I ought to give him
All the things that he is doing for me, and the fact that he hasn’t demanded anything else, I don’t know what to do with all that.
“I have my reasons too, I have told you that too, this is all on me.” He said while looking as meek as ever.
This was one other thing that I cherished about him, the way be undoes himself and doesn’t take credit, no matter how much I try to give him credit for a thing
What do you think about lunch? Somewhere not home?” I asked the first thing that came to mind.
He stared at me, a little taken aback, but he smoothed at the face and nodded.
“Wherever you think is worthy, of course, I will go with you
It was one of the nicest places I have ever been to. It was not just the food but the people and the interaction.
When I took him to the place, the crowd was something else.
I was expecting him to faze out of it, but he looked so cool as his hands were still dipped in his pocket as he joined me in a queue
“How are you doing over there?” I leaned back and asked him.

He shrugerd while looking
in line to eat from here. I hally want to taste the food that they prepare” He said, his
“I mean, I’m intrigued, with the number of people waiting in
ryes looking around and very much intrigued
I made a memory jug back in my head, the first time I took Eric in this place
He looked like he was about to bolt, complaining of the fact that he was going to stand in line along with everyone else.
And asked why he wasn’t just given a chair as soon as he arrivedl.
When the food came he complained so much about it, even though it was tasty, Eric didn’t want to have more than a taste.
With all this that was happening, I should have known that he wasn’t the one, I should have seen him for the evil devil that he was.
“Are you okay?” 1 teh a shake on my shoulder, and I was unfreezing from where my mind had run off.
1 smiled at him, realizing that the line had moved, and I was still standing at a point.
When I moved a httle to join the front. I looked back at him, slowly giving him an apology.
“This is delicious.” He exclaimed once he got the first taste of the spicy sushi mayo.
The way his eyes lightened at the first taste, the way he rushed to take another.
And once they were in his mouth, he groaned happily. The sound of delight that came from him.
My spoon is still in my hand as I watch all of this, fazed by the beauty in his eyes and his face as he appreciates what is right in front of him.
“This is so g
is so good.
With sauce dipping out of his mouth, he looked at me and said
“Right” I concurred with him and he slowly nodded, accepting that fact.
“Why didn’t I know of this place sooner? This will be my favorite place to come to now.” He still shoves the food into his mouth, the delight in his eyes, and the way he eats up everything
I am lost in the way that my eyes hold him, in the ways they appreciate him.
The way he is so handsome that I am even holding my breath because I don’t know what else to do,
This man right in front of me is a delight, he is someone who looks like will share a lot with me when it comes to everything.
I am sitting still and just watching him
My head is
is zero. and my heart is pounding so loud as I watch him.
“You are not eating? I’m going to finish everything.” He showed me a little, and I’m not holding back the smile that bubbles out of me.
Neither am 1 hiding the fact that as days go by, I am beginning to have an affection for this man.
Slowly my feelings are beginning to build for Matteo, for someone that I got along with to avenge my ex–husband, somehow I’m beginning to see a whole of lum
The part that has been uncovered is by far my best, and I’m leaning on him far 100 much, as trust is beginning to build inside of me
“Wow, look who is here!”
I look back to the voice behind me, and my eyes are on the two people I never wanted to see in my life.
The two were holding hands as they looked at us, with excitement dancing right there in their eyes.
