“Come on, Honey! Please feel pity for Lorenzo!” Lorenzo’s mother tried to persuade Lorenzo’s father to feel pity for Lorenzo and thwart the conditions he had said earlier.


    “A deal is a deal. It can’t be revoked or changed.” Lorenzo’s father said firmly.


    Indeed, he is hard and tough. Once he makes up his mind and decides on something, no one can persuade him to change his mind unless his wife, whom he loves the most, persuades her.


    “Honey, don’t be so hard on people, and don’t be like that with people!” Lorenzo’s mother gave him some advice.


    “What will people say about us? They’llbel us as racists, and that will definitely affect the image of the Sans Group.” Lorenzo’s mother had already imagined what would happen if Lorenzo’s father insisted.


    “If Lorenzo bes nca’s husband, I’m sure his performance will still be good. Unless his performance bes poor and he’s ipetent, then there’s no problem if you fire him for that reason because that reason is a strong one and that makes sense.”


    Lorenzo’s mother’s words changed Lorenzo’s father’s mind at that moment. He immediately exhaled and relented.


    “Well. I agree with you.”


    “That’s true, what you said. Thank you for remembering me, Honey!” Lorenzo’s father kissed the forehead of Lorenzo’s mother.


    “You’re wee.”


    “Well, Lorenzo. The conclusion is that we agree with what you’re offering, Lorenzo.” Lorenzo’s mother told him.


    “You can still work for ourpany, but we won’t care about your domestic rtions or problems with nca in the future. Other than that, we will consider you an employee.” Lorenzo’s mother put great emphasis on the word “employee”.


    “Of course, you know, right, as a CEO with an employee’s judgment, you have higher targets than you do now as CEO because you’re our son? So, the targets that you’ll need to achieveter will be higher.” Lorenzo’s mother made sure Lorenzo knew well about that.


    “If you fail, we’re sorry! We’ll have to fire you.” Lorenzo’s mother apologized.


    “Okay. No problem.”


    Lorenzo said while he nodded his head. He understood that condition.


    “I think we need to make a deal and sign an agreement about this so that if in the future there is a vition that one of us makes, you or I can sue under that agreement.” Lorenzo said it again.


    “Yes, I believe that is required.” Lorenzo’s father said.


    “Waiter!” Lorenzo called out to the waiter, and a waiter arrived.


    “What’s wrong, Sir Lorenzo?” The waiter asked.


    “Please, bring three papers and a pen! Thank you!” asked Lorenzo.


    “Okay.” The waiter left immediately to find three papers and a pen.


    They waited for a while until the waiter came and brought the items that Lorenzo had requested. “Here, Sir!”


    Lorenzo immediately wrote down the agreement on three pieces of paper. After that, they signed the three papers. Then, Lorenzo gave one paper each to Lorenzo’s mother, Lorenzo’s father, and Lorenzo.


    “Mom, Dad, please keep this agreement! It’s for proof, if mom and dad want to fire me one day.” Lorenzo pleaded.


    “Okay, Lorenzo.” Lorenzo’s parents immediately folded the agreement and put it in their coat pocket.


    Dinner continued until they ended dinner time and went home. During the journey to his apartment and until he arrived at his apartment, Lorenzo felt very curious about the two strange things happening in his life at that time.


    The first is about the reaction of Lorenzo’s parents. Usually, his parents will always be okay if he falls in love with anyone.


    His parents always said that wealth is not a matter. Then, why is it so different now?


    The second is about the reaction of nca’s parents. If they let nca be Trevor’s girlfriend before, because Trevor is rich. Then why do they look like they don’t really agree on her rtionship with Lorenzo?


    It seemed that their parents don’t agree with their rtionship and prefer nca’s rtionship with Trevor. It seemed so weird to Lorenzo.


    He asked in his heart as if he knew the answers. “What was wrong with nca until they did that? Why did they react like that?”


    He thought there was a hidden meaning. Not only a simple meaning like he thought before.


    The hidden meaning is something that he wants to find out for himself. He would make sure that he found out as soon as possible.


    He thought about contacting Calvin (one of his men who works as his spy). Therefore, he immediately took his phone and opened the lockscreen on it.


    It was nine o’clock in the evening. He saw that nca was online.


    He immediately remembered that he had not video called nca at that time. He alsoined in his heart while he patted his forehead.


    “Oh, my god! I haven’t video called nca today. Why do I only remember now?”


    “Ah! I’m so forgetful.” Heined again.


    “Fortunately, nca is online now. So, I can call her now and contact Calvinter.”


    He immediately discouraged the idea of contacting Calvin and changed it to contacting nca right away. Because of that, he immediately looked for nca’s contact information and made a video call with her.


    In less than a minute, nca picked up the video call. He immediately greeted nca warmly. “Hello, nca, Honey!”


    “Hello, Honey!” greeted nca kindly. She was sitting on her bed in her bedroom.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “How was your dinner with your family?” asked nca, which made Lorenzo immediately tell all the moments of that dinner with his family.


    nca was saddened by Lorenzo’s story because she knows and feels that she is not wee in Lorenzo’s family, and his parents do not approve of their rtionship. nca’s hunch is correct.


    nca won’t be epted into the Lorenzo family. That’s why nca stayed away from Lorenzo all this time but Lorenzo always pursue for her love and he made nca fall in love with him.


    “Actually, I want to ask you something. I’m really curious about that if you don’t mind.” Lorenzo was curious about the real reason his parents rejected her.


    “What’s that, Honey?” nca seemed enthusiastic about Lorenzo’s question.


    “Just ask me, Honey! I’m okay.” nca let Lorenzo ask her.


    “Are you sure?” Lorenzo wasn’t sure if nca would be okay after he asked that question.


    “Yes, I’m okay. I’ll answer it if I can. If not, I won’t answer it.” She told him again.


    That made Lorenzo immediately ask the question that confused him. “I’m really confused and curious. Why do your parents and mine seem to disagree about our rtionship, and it seems they prefer your rtionship with Trevor? What’s wrong?”


    The question made nca feel very sad as she remembered a moment she didn’t want to remember. She immediately lowered her head and tried to distract herself so she wouldn’t feel sad, but she couldn’t forget it.


    Her tears fell down her face. She couldn’t hold back the sadness that she had been harboring for a long time.


    Seeing nca cry, Lorenzo immediately frowned and asked because he felt confused and curious. “What’s wrong?”


    nca remained silent. She was reluctant to talk about her feelings because she was afraid to hurt Lorenzo’s feelings.


    Meanwhile, Lorenzo thought that nca was unfocused and daydreaming. Because of this, Lorenzo immediately called out to nca.


    “nca! nca!”


    Lorenzo’s call made nca look back at Lorenzo and wipe away her tears. She tried to stop her crying, but she couldn’t.


    “Hey, nca! What’s wrong?”


    Lorenzo felt panicked and confused. That’s why he asked that question.


    “What’s wrong, honey? Please tell me!” Lorenzo asked, which made nca want to tell him. But she remembered that she couldn’t tell him.


    ***


    “nca, remember! You can’t talk about this to anyone. Remember that!”


    “Okay,” nca said at that moment.


    ***


    Because of that, she bit her lip to cancel her intention. Then, nca inhaled and exhaled to calm her feelings.


    With a voice that sounded shaky and lips that trembled, nca simply said. “You’ll find outter, Lorenzo.”


    “What do you mean?” Lorenzo tried to make nca speak more, but nca felt unable to contain her sadness again.


    She felt unable to answer Lorenzo’s questions. So, she ended the call, and her tears streamed down her face.


    Meanwhile, Lorenzo was thinking. “What’s wrong?”


    He thought for a while that perhaps thework was disconnected. Because of that, he tried to dial again, which caused nca’s phone to ring again.


    nca immediately asked herself. “Should I pick up the call right now?”


    “Yes, I think I should, but I’m feeling very sad. What if I am sad and I am crying in front of him? That will be so embarrassing.” ncained to herself.


    “But I can’t bear to let Lorenzo keep calling me and the phone keep ringing. I don’t have the heart to do that. I think that I have to answer it.”


    “What should I do? Should I pick up the call right now or not?” nca asked herself as if she knew the answer.
