After Lucas left, the trio continued drinking and chatting for a while.
Lorenzo stood up, am leaving, see you guys another day.
Second brother, why are you leaving so soon, you aren't married to Miss Mia yet so why are you going home so early? Asher asked.
Am leaving too, Alex added.
What! You too, the night is still young and you guys are already leaving.
Of course the night would always be young for a night owl like you, besides I don't think you need us here,you already have a company, Alex said looking at the young girl beside Asher.
You are right, I will just enjoy the company of this beauty, Asher said winking at the young girl who blushed.
Lorenzo and Alex excited the club together.
Second brother wait! Alex called out to Lorenzo who was about to enter his car.
Lorenzo closed his car door, leaned on the car and lighted a cigarette.
Second brother, are you really going to get involved with the girl from the Anderson family? Alex asked.
Yes, you seem to have a problem with her, Lorenzo said looking at Alex.
I don't have a problem with her, it's just that... What about her? What are you going to do about her? She obviously won't be happy to know that you are involved with another woman.
Lorenzo knew who the her he was referring to was. That's my problem, you don't have to worry about her, I know what am doing.Drive safely, I will leave now, he said entering his car and driving away.
Alex watched as his car disappear into the night. Lorenzo I hope you really know what you are doing, he muttered to himself before getting into his car and driving away.
Lorenzo drove to his Villa at Maple residence, it was one of the best residential estates in M
city. He has lived there since he took over De Santos corporation.
On getting home, Lorenzo met his assistant Andy at the living room sleeping on the sofa.
Young master, you are back, the housekeeper, Aunt Lee welcomed him.
Uhmm, he nodded at her.
The sudden noise awakened Andy who was sleeping, he stood up abruptly Young master,
you are back.
Why are you waiting for me? It's so late already.
I brought you the document for the acquisition and also the old house called, they said they couldn't reach you and they were worried because you didn't leave with any bodyguard.
You should give them a call, old madam said she wouldn't sleep until you called, Andy said.
Ok I will give them a call later, you can go home now, it's late.
Ok ,young master, have a good night, Andy said before leaving the house.
Young master, would you like to eat anything? Aunt Lee asked.
No am okay, you can go to sleep too.
Ok young master, Aunt Lee said before retreating to her room.
Lorenzo went upstairs to his room, he decided to give his parents a call, they were a worrywart and would really not go to sleep unless he called. The phone rang and was almost answered immediately.
Enzo, how are you? Mom was so worried about you, why didn't you take the bodyguards with you when you were leaving?
I had something to take care of personally, Lorenzo answered.
You should have at least taken Dongzi with you, came his father's voice, you should know better, since that accident your mom and I hasn't been at ease since the culprit has not been found.
I'm sorry for making you guys worry, I will make sure to take Dongzi along next time.
It's okay son, mom wanted to invite you for dinner today, we had a guest today, she is the
daughter of the Declan's family, she is.....
Mom, not again, Lorenzo interrupted.
Enzo, mom is doing this for your own good, you are already thirty and still have no woman
in your life, look at the kid from the Jackson family, he's already married and would soon have kids but you don't even have anyone you are dating now, Mrs De Santos said.
Mom, am seeing someone.
What! Mrs De Santos exclaimed, the person you are seeing is not a man right?
Enzo, are you serious? His father asked.
I'm serious and it's a girl mom, we just started dating recently, I will bring her over when I have time.
Yes yes, why don't you bring her over tomorrow, you can clear your schedule or have Andy stand in for you, Mrs De Santos said exicitedly.
Mom, we just started dating, I don't want to scare her with all the introduction stuff, I will
bring her to see you guys soon.
Ok then, take your time but don't make us wait for too long, you go to sleep now, it's already late, Mom will call you tomorrow.
Good night Mom, Lorenzo said finally ending the call.
He just lied to them but he would definitely date Mia, it was only a matter of time, he
thought to himself.
Back at the old house, the old couple were excited that their son was finally in a relationship.
Edward, I can believe that Enzo likes a girl, he's been so indifferent to women that I was
starting to doubt if he was really straight.
The son of Edward De Santos cannot be such a thing, we just have to wait and see the kind of woman our son chose, Lorenzo's father said.
Don't you think we should call Andy or Lucas and ask of the girl's identity? Mrs De Santos
asked her husband.
No, we shouldn't interfere, our son already said he would introduce her to us later on, I don't think we should go about investigating, he would definitely find out and won't be happy about it, Mr De Santos said.
You are right, let's go to bed already, it's late, I will tell mom tomorrow that Enzo likes a
girl, Mrs De Santos said happily as the couple went to their room to sleep.
