Chapter 621 - Six Hundred And Twenty-one: How Are You So Different From Your Father? (1/2)

The third point of view:

Pedro didn't want to be here but he had no choice. If he wanted to keep Isabella by his side, this was the sacrifice he had to make.

”It's nice to see you honored my request to meet,” she welcomed him with a smile, already seated.

”Natasha,” Pedro hissed at that name as he came to stand in front of her. She was the biggest mistake he ever made. God cursed the day he met her.

”I don't like my guests standing, do well to have a seat,” The woman gestured to the seat in front of hers, still with that smile.

”Make this quick,” Pedro grumbled as he took a seat. He was as nervous as hell and he showed that by glancing around their surroundings.

”This is one of the best private rooms in here and you can trust me that whatever we discuss here won't leave this room,” Natasha said, having read his mind.

Pedro sneered inwardly, if only Natasha knew he was more scared of Isabella finding out than any other person knowing about this. He couldn't even guarantee her - Natasha - life in that situation - Isabella would surely kill her.

”What do you want?” Pedro went straight to the point. He wanted to be done with her and go back to his once peaceful life.

”What do I want?” Natasha scoffed, as if she couldn't believe what he just asked her.

”Is it money? How much is it? A million? Ten million? A billion? Name your price,” He asked, ready to pull out a check once she said the word.

”I don't need your money?! Didn't you see my message?” she hollered.

Pedro sneered, ”Like I believe a thing,”

”I'm having your baby!”

”It is not my baby!” Pedro roared at her, eyes blazing with anger. He knew people like her and she was nothing but a gold digger.

”Have you forgotten that night?” she reminded him.

Of course not, how could he forget the night he made the biggest mistake of his life.

Natasha was his previous personal assistant and an efficient one at that. She was a simple girl from a reputable background and he had taken her out of compassion. However, she never failed his expectations and he trusted her until that night.

Pedro never understood why Isabella never liked Natasha, he guessed she sensed her ulterior motive - Isabella always had a strange ability. But he guessed Isabella never pressed him on the matter because she trusted his judgment. She trusted he would make the right decision and he fucked it up.

Pedro had business outside the country and he left with Natasha as usual. As with business dealings, there was a bit of drinking with his partners and though he could handle his drink, he failed that night.
