Chapter 25

LORENZO POV

After our little conversation, things got a little heated when reality settled in that there was no turning back! Leigh-Ari had asked for her phone, Vernero flat out told her no; she looked at me thinking I’d put in a good word for her but I just shrugged and continued drinking my wine.

She had then fled out of the lounge running back to the room she was sleeping; temporarily.

Vemero and I planned to take her to our bedrooms soon. Things were really looking up and I was loving every minute of it.

Vemero turned with a phone in his hand, punched some digits, and then placed it on his ear:

“She should be. Let’s give her some time.” I interjected giving him a manly slap on his back.

I checked the watch on my hand and realized I was running insanely late.

“What?” I chuckled turning fully to face.

“You are leaving her with me?” He asked bewildered.

“Of course. I have to work.” I raised my hands on my sides gesturing to nothing in particular.

“Yeah, I know that. But she hates me.” he pointed to the direction where Leigh Ari took off to.

“No, she doesn’t.” Was he ridiculous?

“She calls me a hooligan for crying out loud. She hates me.” I thinned my eyes and took a step back to the couch, stood in front of him, and just stared down at him, he was being hard on himself and I had to step i n to soothe him, or else someone was going to die.
