Chapter 32: Ch.31/ The Secret Is Out
Alessandro''s POV:-
After what happened with that bitch Linda I have fired all the maids except two who are working for me
from the moment I have gotten the mansion built. As for Linda, she is rotting in jail and I have made
sure that she will never be able toe out of that hell hole ever. Anhuphama was reluctant at first
because she thought that it was unfair to fire others because of one person''s wrongdoing. But when I
assured her that I have given them two years worth of sries in advance, she rxed a little.
I have been spending as much as time possible with my princess and I am sure that she is loving the
attention she is getting from her Papa. The thought of her being hurt is enough to make me anxious so
to keep her with me, I have taken her to thepany a few times with me. Whenever shees to the
company, everyone starts to cooing at her adorable antics, and in return, she gives them flying kisses.
Today is a little different than other days because today we are not going to mypany. Instead, we
are attending the inauguration of the new branch opening of Sengupta Enterprise. However, the name
of this branch ispletely different than the other one in India. Thispany will be named after our
daughter, AB Enterprise which is the short for Advira Bianchi Enterprise. She has also assured me that
her father is not a bit offended with her for changing the name of thepany in LA.
This is also a new thing to admire as Anhuphama and Mr. Sengupta has started to interact more with
each other. They sit together and talk like a father-daughter should. I am d that my Cara is getting
the attention she deserves from her father. Although there is still a lot of things that need to be
discussed between the two, I am sure that they will be crossing that path too in the future. But the sad
thing is that he can''t attend the inauguration as he has gone back to India. He said that there is no one
to look after thepany so he needs to go and get everything right in thepany.
Another interesting thing that is happening for some time is that Miss Ganguly has started to talk again
and we have been able to catch the criminals who have assaulted her before. However, I am quite
surprised to see her bonding with none other than Marco. The same Marco who used to see her as a
spoilt brat but now they have formed a deep friendship between them.
"Papa me ready." My polo saysing outside of the mansion while holding hands with her Nonna.
She is looking like a little doll and the little handmade red beanie cap is making her more adorable.
I pick her up in my arms and gives her a lot of kisses making her giggle. I hearughtering from
the side so I look forward to see that Anhuphama along with Mrs. Ganguly and Olivia areing
outside the mansion while chatting among them.
I can see that Olivia has finally convinced Anhuphama to get a makeover and I have to agree that my
wife is looking damn gorgeous. It''s not like she needed any makeover however all thedies suggested
that she needs a little professional touch on her wardrobe as well as in her looks. When she asked for
my advice I told her straight that it''s up to her because it''s her body, if she thinks she needs to change
something then she is not bound to ask anyone about their opinion.
When she stops in front of me, I don''t waste any time to wrap my right hand around her waist before
dropping a kiss on her forehead, in which I get a big smile in return from her. I like to see her all smiling
and happy. This woman is making me feel something that I vowed not to feel. But what I can do if the
woman in my arms is so fascinating to not feel something in the heart.
"Are you ready for the new journey Cara?" I ask her.
"I will be always ready if you are with me." She replies softly.
********
The whole ce is buzzing with the excitement of the reporters and the newly appointed employees
who are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the head of thepany. When we arrive at the auditorium
room of thepany, all the sounds die down as everyone''s focus diverts towards us. I can feel
Anhuphama getting tense seeing so many people but my hold on her waist doesn''t tter a little. She is
taking such a big step in her life and for doing this, she is bound to be ufortable. However, I am
sure that my Bengal tigress will show everyone howpetent she is to run thispany.
Mr. Ganguly is the one to address the press and the employees first. He very smoothly gives a brief
description of thepany and its goal for the future. He introduces himself as the CEO of the
company and also describes about the role he will be ying in there. Finally, the time I am waiting for
comes when he asks Anhuphama to address the crowd. I give her hand a assuring squeeze to let her
know that I am here for her.
She reaches the stage and takes the microphone from her brother before turning around to face the
people who will work under her. Upon seeing her mother on the stage our daughter starts to p her
hands in delight making me kiss the top of her head.

"Good afternoon everyone. As the chairwoman of thispany I would like to thank all the media
people who havee here despite their busy schedule and also to the newly appointed employees
who I am sure will be bringing a lot of sess to thispany." Anhuphama tells with a kind smile. I
can feel that everyone in this room wants to hear more from her because of the gentle aura she has
around her.
"Many of you may know about thispany being a branch of my father''spany ''The Sengupta
Enterprise'', but after some discussion with my father I havee to the conclusion that thispany''s
name is going to be after my daughter Advira Bianchi. She is the most valuable treasure of my life and
in our culture daughters are viewed as Goddess Lakshmi meaning the Goddess of wealth and
prosperity. My daughter is no less than a Goddess Lakshmi for me, so with that being said, I would like
to announce that the name of thepany will be AB Enterprise from now on." Everyone p their
hands in appreciation making me feel proud of my wife who looks so confident that no one will believe
if I say that this same woman was crying out of fear yesterday night that she wouldn''t be able to do
anything right today.
She then starts to talk about the things she wants to do for thepany and expects the same from
the employees too. She ensures them that they cane to her for asking any help they need. She
then turns towards me and asks me to join her with our daughter on the stage which I do without any
hesitation.
"If you guys are seeing me at this stage is all because of the man standing beside me, my husband
Alessandro Bianchi. He is the one who has shown the utmost belief in me and convince me to take the
ce of the head of thispany. He not only encourages me to move forward but also respect my
decision, and for that I will be always thankful to him." I feel my heart swell with admiration for this
woman. She doesn''t need to thank me for anything because she is getting what she deserves from the
start.
"Now, I like to introduce our precious daughter Advira Bianchi who I can see that getting impatient to
not be able to move around the stage." She says making everyoneugh.
"Jokes apart, our daughter is the best part of our lives and I am grateful to be called her mother. She
has brought so much joy into my life that no amount of words can be able to express the love I have for
her." I don''t know if our daughter understand anything or not but she gives her mum-mum a big kiss on
the cheek.
Anhuphama tries to give the microphone to me but I deny the offer because I want her to have all the
attention. After some more talking Anhuphama informs that the work will start from tomorrow so the
employees can look around thepany building and have some snacks that have been prepared for
them. She also asks the reporters to enjoy the snacks as well.
I excuse myself when I realize that my phone is ringing but not before handing our daughter to
Anhuphama. I am shocked to see that Richard Wilson is calling me so I don''t waste a moment and
receive the call. However, hearing the voice on the other side of the phone make my blood boil in
anger.
"Hello, Alessandro." Samantha, Sebastian White''s wife says over the phone.
"What do you want?" I ask rudely.
"Don''t be such a fuss with me. I know you are angry with me for not keeping in contact with you for the
last couple of years but don''t worry, now I am back for good. We can get in touch as much as you
want." She kind of purrs like a dying cat.
"I will be jumping into the sea full of sharks before getting in touch with you. Because I hate your
existence, Samantha." I reply clutching the phone in anger.
"Oh,e on babe. I know how much you have missed me and believe me, I have missed you too."
She replies.
"Stop with the nonsense talking. Just tell me why the hell did you call from Richard''s phone?" I can not
understand why this woman is not leaving me alone. I don''t want the repeat of the horrible incidents
that had happened in Australia in the past.
"If I have called you from an unknown number you wouldn''t have received the call so I thought that
calling from Richard''s number will be beneficial and look my trick works pretty well. By the way, I have
called you to inform you about the meeting for our new deal. I wanted to hold the meeting in your
company but then I decided to just do the meeting in Wilson''spany. So, be here tomorrow at 11
AM for the meeting." Saying this she cuts the call without waiting for my reply.
I was so busy with everything that I havepletely forgot about the deal with Wilson or should I say
Sebastian White. Neither I have thought of any way to get out of the deal nor I have discussed this
matter with Anhuphama. Hell, I don''t even know if she has read the file I have given her some days
ago. But before doing anything I need to tell her everything about Samantha because I don''t want to
keep any secret between us. I can easily handle Samantha and Sebastian but Samantha is a great
maniptor and has an unhealthy obsession with me so I am sure that she will try to offend or hurt the
people close to me.
But how I will tell the only woman who is making her way towards my heart at an unknown speed that I
have so many secrets to share. I don''t even know how Anhuphama will react after learning the truth
about Samantha. Although my wife is a very kind person but I don''t want her to think that I am taking
her kindness for granted. So, I am going to tell her everything tonight.

Anupama''s POV:-
I am cleaning the dishes when Riyaes in the kitchen with a crying Advira in her arms. I dry my
hands in a towel and take my crying daughter from her. It''s not very long that I have put her in bed after
she falls asleep but I think my baby has woken up from a bad dream.
"I wasing to the kitchen when I heard her crying hysterically. So, I bring her to you." Riya exins
after my baby''s cry dulled to quiet sniffles.
"Thanks Riya for bringing her to me. I shouldn''t have left her alone in the nursery knowing well that she
still sometimes get scared in her sleep." I reply while rocking my baby gently.
"No need to thank me Anu. I am happy to help you out with something. By the way, you should put her
in bed before she wakes up again." She says making me nod my head in reply. I bid her goodnight
before making my way towards the bedroom.
Upon arriving in the room I notice that Mr. Bianchi is typing furiously something in theptop while
talking on the phone. I signal him to keep his volume low and heplies without anyint when
he sees a sleepy Advira in my arms. Iy her in the middle of the bed before putting two pillows in her
both side to keep her from falling.
Then I go and sit beside my husband who is looking very tired yet that doesn''t stop him from working. I
take theptop from him before start to look through the deal he is working on. Surprisingly it is the
same deal he told me to study earlier.
"I am so sorry Mr. Bianchi, Ipletely forgot to tell you about my thoughts on this deal." I tell him.
"It''s alright Cara. I have also forgotten about the deal and that''s why I need to look through the deal to
get out of this without losing any money." He replies whileying his head on my shoulder.
"You know, I am very curious or should I say confused that why Mr. Wilson suddenly sold hispany
to your business rival." I say while closing theptop to look at him. He lifts his head from my shoulder
and gives me a light peck on the lips.
"Before knowing the reason behind the sell you need to know the connection between Samantha White
and Me." He replies while looking at me with uneasiness.
"Why are you looking so tense? Is there something wrong with Samantha White?" I ask worriedly.
"There is everything wrong with that crazy woman. She is the sole reason behind the sale of Wilson''s
company. She wants to destroy me to the core so she can have me." He answers back with anger
visible on his face. I put my head on his chest before wrapping my arms around his waist in hopes to
calm him down. He hugs me back tightly as if he is scared I will vanish somewhere.
"Tell me everything, Alessandro. Tell me everything that is bothering you." I say while snuggling closer
to him.
"Samantha and I were raised in the same orphanage in Italy. She was only two years younger than me
so it was easy for us to bond together. I was a very quiet kid from the start so no one wanted to be my
friend at the orphanage but she was different. She used to sit with me and talk to me. She was the only
one with whom I felt confident enough to talk freely. But our happy bubble got burst when an Australian
couple came to adopt her. She didn''t want to go without me but I convinced her that I woulde to
meet her. That''s one of the reason why I chose to study in Australia after turning eighteen years old.
After going there I got in touch with her and started to go to the same college as her. Everything was
great at first for a few months but then I started to notice how she was behaving quite possessive
towards me. I didn''t think much of it but then Marco told me that Samantha was threatening the girls
who used to talk to me or even look at me. I didn''t believe Marco straight but decided to confront her.
Much to my surprise she didn''t hesitate to confirm the spections about her making me see that her
possessiveness had turned to obsession. Everything went downhill when I broke my friendship with
her. She started to attack my friends out of anger. She started to spread rumours about me being a
drug dealer to get me away from everyone. Basically, she wanted me to be her only. She didn''t want to
share me with anyone." He narrates making me feel horrible for him.
He had suffered so much already for that woman and now she is back in the hope to make his life more
miserable. But I will not let her do anything awful to my husband anymore. I don''t know what type of
woman she has be now because it''s been so long however I can guess that she is nning
something big.
"What are you thinking Cara?" He asks making me break away from my thoughts.
"Nothing, you continue. I want to know everything." I reply.
"I wanted to leave that ce but then Uncle Gabriel came in there and got Samantha expelled. Her
parents were rich but not more than Uncle Gabriel so they couldn''t save her. She tried to talk to me but
I didn''t let her. I focused on my study and got my degree with the highest grade. Then I came here after
starting my own small business and decided to settle down here. I have never thought that I would
meet her again but I think her obsession level is something I couldn''t predict. Now, again I need to face
the crazy woman and destroy her before she can do anything to my family or friends." He answers
back.
"You are not alone Alessandro. I will be there beside you whenever you need my help. You have made
me realize that I am not worthless and I will be the strong person you want me to be. After so many
years of suffering, I have gotten happiness in my life and I will not let any outsider to destroy this
happiness just because of their selfishness." I tell him before looking at him to see that he is already
looking at me with a small smile on his face.
"Why are you smiling?" I ask with confusion.
"Because my wife is bing very possessive of me and believe me, I am extremely happy to see
that." He replies making me blush. I swat at his left arm before standing up from the couch. However,
he has another thing in his mind because next, I know that he tugs me in hisp and cuddle me to his
chest. I try to get up but my strength is nothingpared to his muscle strength. With a huff, I get
comfortable in hisp and snuggle closer to his chest where I can hear his heartbeat.
"You should always call me by my name because it makes me very happy." He says after a few
seconds.
"I can not guarantee that but I will try. Okay?" I ask looking at him. He nods his head and stands up
while holding me in his strong arms. I yelp in surprise but wrap my arms around his neck tightly not
wanting to fall. He chuckles before going in front of the bed and put me beside our sleeping daughter.
He goes to the other side of the bed andy down facing me. He tells me to close my eyes before he
starts running his fingers through my hair.
