Chapter 57
She looked at Santiago as if she was seeing the bigger version of her grandson Sam and then stole a glance at Aurora.
When she saw how unfriendly Aurora stared at Santiago, with a Killing intent, she knew then that he was likely the father to her grandchildren.
Sam looked so much like him. Mia gave a smile and then said ” This is Santiago Axel. The CEO of the Axel group”
“It’s my pleasure meeting you again CEO Axel”Aurora said with a thin smile on her lips. She didn’t shake hands with him but raised her glass as if wanting to make a toast and gave a slight nod of the head.
Aurora was creating a false impression to her mother that she had no issue with President Axel.
But Mia knew better, that they were both faking it but pretended not to notice any abnormality with their stiff and weird behavior on seeing each other.
Santiago looked at Aurora and was captivated by her feminism. Her mermaid dress brought out her perfect enticing curves. How sweet of Aurora to keep herself fit after having their babies.
“It’s my pleasure to see you again,” Santiago replied as he raised his glass to his mouth. He was not going to pretend like Aurora even if she does to him.
It’s indeed a pleasure for him to see her again. Aurora might be pretending when said it’s her pleasure to see him again, but he knew how excited he felt at the moment that he saw her.
His love for her has been rekindled a hundred times and his guilt seemed to mean nothing at the moment.
Aurora was alive, sweet and more beautiful. And more importantly, she had become a powerful, elegant woman.
And then, his kids. His world was going to be complete now, having Aurora and their kids around.
She’s measured up to the status he desired, a status he wanted to bring her to, before things fell apart. They both are on par with each other and the thoughts of it, has made him super excited.
Mia chuckled silently. Seems these two are playing a game of hide and seek with each other.
Aurora gave a fierce stare at Santiago. Screw you Santiago, she thought.
She moved away from his table.
When Aurora got to Nick Kushner’s table, the latter sprang to his feet. “I am Nick Kushner. The eldest young master of the Kushner family” He was in a hurry to get acquainted with Aurora. He stretched his hand for a handshake.
Aurora stared at Nick Kushner’s outstretched hand with a sneer. She doesn’t like cheap men and she can see that this fellow was extremely cheap.
She gave a slight nod and with a poker face walked past him to the next table.
“I like to crack hard nuts like you CEO Rowan” Nick Kushner said shamelessly and kissed his hand that Aurora wouldn’t shake.
Aurora simply walked away without looking back at the arrogant scum. Mia was impressed with Aurora’s matured way of handling that spoiled brat.
At 10:00pm, the party finally came to an end. Aurora and Mia were escorted to their car by the bodyguards.
Santiago only left after he saw Aurora was driven off. He got into the car and saw the smiling face of Jasper Milo. He doesn’t need to ask before knowing the reason behind his smiles.
Santiago sighed deeply with his eyes shut. At last he’d known where Aurora was. He’d met his kids as well though accidentally.
He only has one more thing to do; chase Aurora afresh. But he had to meet with her and make her forgive him first.
Aurora was quiet all along. She was lost in her thoughts, Santiago was still as handsome as he was the last time she saw him.
She can feel his attractiveness sipping into her panties. Her body missed him as much as her soul desires him.
She still loves him and all these years she had been secretly yearning to see him again. But today, when she got to see him, she couldn’t throw herself in his arms.
Millie Logan had told her that Santiago had been looking for her and even employed a private detective to find her.
Has he really forgotten about her to have come to the party with that movie star Janet? Has he been sleeping with her?
She was going to find out what relationship Santiago had with her. But before that, She will start by handling Larry Tom.
Her grandfather had told her to do whatever she likes. After all, she was jailed for murdering him and now that he has been found, She could make him die for real and not go to jail again.
Mia was also thinking. Aurora had told her she was working in the Axel group before going to prison. She was the personal secretary to the President. That was what she said when she came newly from Florence City.
Was this Santiago Axel the one Aurora worked with? He was most likely to be Sam and Samantha’s father. The former looked so much like him.
Once, she tried to ask Aurora who the father of her then unborn babies were but rather than answer, She started crying. Since then, she hasn’t bothered her anymore.
She turned to look at Aurora and found her lost in thoughts. The party was awesome but Aurora lost that cheerfulness after she introduced her to the CEO of the Axel group.
“He’s the one right?” Mia asked. Her question brought Aurora out of her thoughts.
” Who are you talking about mum?” She didn’t know if her mother had been talking to her before that question fell into her ears.
“I mean the President of the Axel group, He’s the father of Sam and Samantha, right?” Mia was more direct in her question.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Aurora nodded and looked outside. Her mother must not see the tears threatening their way down her cheeks.
He is the one, the man she loved body and soul. She never believed she couldn’t deal with him until he let her go to jail and got busy with that witch, Eve Diego.
She already knew they didn’t eventually get engaged. But the thought of it alone, sends bitterness down her heart.
Mia didn’t ask any more questions for a long time. She didn’t want to make her cry.
When they got close to the Mansion, Mia asked her the last question “Do you both really loved each other back then?”
