Chap. 04
Intertwined By Love
Hector
I finally made Lorena understand that the only way out is marriage, then I went to my father's office to call Aberto the lawyer immediately, asking him for advice and I took advantage of it and also asked him to hire an investigator, to find out everything about the girl and her mother. Alberto guided me to do a DNA test as soon as possible, and make a marriage contract with all my wishes and restrictions, I ended up sending my basic requirements by email, and after another half hour of discussion we reached an agreement. So with everything defined and resolved I hung up. As soon as I put the phone down and closed the computer, I hear a knock on the door, then my father comes in with my aunt kayla who is already starting to lecture me!
- Great nephew to meet you here, because I brought your father, precisely because I wanted him to call your attention!
— I'm sorry Auntie, I'm leaving and honestly I'm not having a good day today, so please don't even start with a lecture, because I'm already an adult and I don't have to listen to anything!
- You see Hermes, your son is very arrogant and rude and urgently needs a lesson!
“Honestly kayla, you're exaggerating! Says Hermes.
— Okay, let's get this over with, tell auntie what do you want?
— I already talked to your father, that he has to do something, because look at the situation of this girl, she is practically a child, who is taking care of another child, and you, Hector, is a man of almost twenty-eight years, that's it. It's almost absurd!
— Enough kayla, now get out of here, I'll talk to my son! — Talking Hermes all authoritative, then Aunt Kayla leaves all hurt.
Unfortunately I'm not having a good time with my father, even before this situation, our relationship was already bad due to his lack of respect for my work. Because according to my father, I'm just an adventurer in the world of technology, but suddenly, when it's just the two of us there, I start to look at my father, dying of hatred for him, he, however, sees me as the all-powerful and untouchable lord, unfortunately the bastard of my father, never lowered his crest of arrogance and arrogance. But soon I start to lose what little patience I have left.
— Look dad, I don't have to talk to you at this moment, but about my girlfriend everything is settled, because I will do what my mother already made clear at her birthday party!
- Very good! So that's what you're going to do, ruin your life by marrying some random girl! "Only because of a baby you don't know is your Hector?" Well, it sure can be anyone, because you can immediately see what kind of woman that girl is!
— I think it's better not to have this conversation, and first of all respect Lorena, because your father, maybe you regret it and don't like the result!
- Well, I as your father give you some advice give her money, and if the child is hers we will raise the child, but don't marry just any one? Hector, you are an heir to the billionaire empire of the Lykaios and you don't need to rush to get married! Well, this girl is not your match, look at her mediocre origins!
'So is this, Hermes, your pride and prejudice that are at stake here?' Know my father that for me the important thing is what my mother Katrina thinks, and she has already accepted Lorena as her daughter-in-law!
- That doesn't interest me Hector, because your mother isn't thinking straight at the moment, she's fragile and that's why she sees it as a fairy tale, but as a businessman with experience I see that it's a real shot in the foot! Well, you can't marry a girl with no name and no prestige, who turns out to be a poor girl!
— Really, Dad, you already had this conversation! That's why I'm going, I'm going to my apartment, don't worry about the Lykaios empire, I'm completely taking my own place in the world!
— Wait Hector, you're not going out like that! I'm your father and I'm still talking to you!
- OK! Mr. Hermes, but as I said, everything is already decided!
"Hector, come back here!"
I just opened the door, and my aunt Kayla almost fell over, as she was probably listening to our conversation, then she walked in and I ended up leaving my father now arguing with her. Aunt Kayla is the adopted daughter of my paternal grandparents, and married to my father's brother, my uncle Damian, actually this initially caused confusion, but in the end everyone accepted. They have a big age gap, uncle Damian is forty-three and aunt kayla is twenty-five, so I'm honestly disgusted with her age talk, as she got involved with my uncle practically at nineteen. Besides, she behaves as if she were more my aunt than my own blood uncle. Since my uncle is a discreet man and never gets into trouble! My father, on the other hand, is really a man I don't even know how to classify, because I wanted to throw everything in his face right there! However, I held back not to say that I am assuming the son of betrayal ofle, to avoid my mother's suffering! What the fuck, the damn old perverted, and still prejudiced and arrogant, because it seems like he cares when he's sleeping with anyone out there and cheating on my mother.
With my head boiling, I just went back to the room to talk to Lorena, because I wanted to go to my apartment! However, when I get close to my room, I'm surprised by my uncle almost coming out. Uncle Damian, when he saw me, scared him, but soon he disguises it and starts giving me an excuse that he was looking for his wife, and that the maid said she was in my room with my girlfriend! I found that a little suspicious, but I left it alone and he left, then I entered the room and saw Lorena sleeping with her brother in my bed.
