Sia and Logan arrived at the Alvaro mansion and as soon as the car came to a stop by the entrance, Logan got out and proceeded to open the car door for Sia like a perfect gentleman he extended his hand to her and Sia took it and got out as well. After having lunch with her, Logan suggested they spend the rest of the day doing things she wanted hence Sia ended up having a little bit of fun with him.
“Shall we?”Logan held her hand as they walked inside, from time to time Sia peeked at him and like always she didn’t find anything wrong with him, he was what most girls would dream of, caring and always paid attention to the tiniest detail about the person he was with. That was what made Logan the best man she has ever came across and that was why she always tried to distance herself from him, he was innocent and expected more from the woman he wanted and her being Sia didn’t have enough to give which was why she always pushed him away.
“And here they are”Cristal exclaimed as soon as Logan and Sia entered followed by various houses helps.
“Good evening aunt”logan greeted Sia’s mom with a charming smile and Cristal smiled back and led them to the living room were the entire family were gathered including Logan’s parents.
“Oh my, she’s more beautiful than the last time I met her… come my child”Logan’s mom stood up from where she was sitting and walked to Sia who had no idea why to do.
“How are you aunt?”Sia said innocently and the lady caged her in a bear hug and glanced up at her dad who was busy talking to Logan’s dad probably about business. Tara was sitting smiling every now and then and went on to greet long who was happy.
“She’s beautiful isn’t she? your son is lucky”Cristal said cheerfully as they led Sia to sit down so did her dad and Logan’s dad.
“Sia, I’m sure you and my son had a wonderful time, Logan was eager to see you.. do you know he left his business and rushed to Canada when we told him you were here”Logan’s mom said with a smile and Cristal being the happiest mom on earth nodded, Sia kept quiet as he listened to them talking about how great the marriage was going to be and as expected her dad saw the bright side of the millions he was going to gain from the marriage alliance.
“So it’s settled, the engagement will be in two days’ time”Logan’s father said and everyone nodded in agreement and the discussion went on and on. Sia was too tired and exhausted to stay more as she immediately went to her room after exchanging a few words with Tara.
“You okay?”she heard Logan’s voice as he opened her bed room door and walked in, Sia sighed as she immediately sat up.
“Yeah”she murmured more like to herself but he heard her loud and clear and he went on to sit beside her.
“Hey if anything is bothering you don’t hesitate to tell me”saying that he took her hand in his hand and squeezed it softly as his other arm wrapped around her shoulders and pulled her close to him so that her head was resting on his chest. Sia closed her eyes not sure what to do but she was trapped in a predicament, what would Logan do once he learned about little Diego? The same went for Carmen and her family who were obviously planning an engagement party in a few days time with their Casanova son.

Angelo and Emiliano were having a good time in one of Emiliano’s private villas, to Angelo’s surprise after ditching his friend by taking his car and driver leaving him stranded he got away from murder.
“Tell me did you take a tiny glimpse”Angelo said with a chuckle as he handed Emiliano a glass of liquor and Emiliano who had a smirk the entire time took it and gulped it in one go.
“Not my type, I prefer something spicy and more experienced”he said in mockery and Angelo made an O with his mouth and burst out laughing, he had to admit Emiliano was the worst man anyone could ever meet he knew just how much he liked women and never went for innocent ones and the lady in his mansion was what he never liked. And now that he was been forced to marry Sia he was bond to be angry because his mom and granny always wanted him to be the better man he never wanted.
“Come on bro, have you seen her… at least have a try”Angelo coaxed more but Emiliano only shrugged and got up from the sofa and walked to stand by the window. He had a reason for hating Sia because she was why he hated the most, girls like her came with a lot of sentimental emotions and expected more from a relationship than a man could offer. He vowed to stay away from women like her to avoid getting into something which would leave him hurt.
“Why don’t you go ahead and do what you want with her or better yet give her to Mario”emiliano said nonchalantly again surprisingly Angelo who couldn’t help but laugh more, they both hated getting emotional but at least Emiliano didn’t need to fall in love.
“Nah, she’s not my type”he simply said and took a sip of whiskey and the room fell silent again, Angelo had a serious expression on as he recalled his past life and everything that led him to be who he was now. For a moment at food galore he thought he would get back the person who meant the world to him but that wasn’t the case, it was too good to be what he wished for.
As Angelo and Emiliano continued their discussion now business inclusive, the front door flung open and both men shifted their eyes to see who would dare enter without permission and to Emiliano’s amusement it was Trey who walked in holding a few files and like a good employee, Trey walked to emiliano who was still standing by the window and stood before him with a bow.
“Good evening, Mr Alvaro”Trey greeted Emiliano and tilted his head and nodded at Angelo who raised his glass in the air and took out his phone and concentrated on it.
“Sir, here is the information you needed”Trey handed him a white file and Emiliano took it in his hands and narrowed his eyes as he hesitated to open it and when he did, his facial expression darkened as he read every single detail. Trey watched his boss carefully and wanted to ask if he found the information useful but dropped the idea. If there was something he had came to know about his boss and that was he hated being questioned no matter what.
“Trey… Good job… you will be rewarded as promised”Emiliano said with a smirk as he slammed the file shut and handed it back to Trey who took it with care and smiled foolishly knowing full well he did his job like promised and now it was up to his boss to do as he wanted. Trey didn’t stay long as he immediately left, leaving Emiliano more happy than ever as he walked back to Angelo and sat down like a boss he was. Angelo scanned him for a while and arched his brows wondering what his best friend was up to.
“And what’s making you happy all of a sudden?”Angelo asked and emiliano smirked even more as he poured himself a drink and raised the glass in the air for a toast.
“Cheers, now wait for some chaos”Emiliano smirked more as he gulped down the entire drink and poured more, Angelo stopped doing whatever he was doing as cold sweat broke on his forehead. Whatever his friend was planning he rather not be a part of it knowing full well Emiliano was deadly when it came to playing mind games.
