chapter 42

Italy...

"Che Diavolo?" Alonzo yelled as someone tries to take his quilt away from him.

(Transalation:- what the hell?)

"Stai zitto e ti alzo il Culo, Fra. We have an important meeting today in the office." Aurora, Alonzo's one and only dear sister yelled.

(Transalation:- Shut the hell up and get your ass up, bro.)

Alonzo opened his eyes and just then, she opened the curtains making the sunrays falls in his room.

"Please, let me sleep for a few more minutes. I came home late last night." Alonzo said as he again grabbed his quilt and cover himself and closed his eyes.

"Sul serio non credo che tu sia mio fratello maggiore." Aurora said.

(Transalation:- I seriously don't believe you are my elder brother.)

"Ma dovresti." Alonzo replied.

(Tra:- but you should.)

"Get up, Bro. We should be at the company in 2 hour." Aurora yelled as she tried to take his quilt away from him but he grabbed it tightly.

"You idiota. Get up." Aurora yelled as she again tried to take away his quilt from him.

(Transalation:- Idiot)

"Aurora, I will not come here again if you tried to disturb me now." Alonzo said as he covered over himself with his quilt.

"Oh, really? Then don't come. I will get all the love from our parents when you live in your penthouse." Aurora replied with an excited voice.

"Shut up you jelousy girl. Get out of my room and don't disturb me and tell my PA to postpone all my morning meetings to the afternoon." Alonzo said as he cuddled with his pillow.

"You..." Aurora got cut off in a mid-sentence with there sweet mom voice.

"Aurora Di Angelo, don't disturb your brother." Natalia said as she walked inside Alonzo bedroom and Alonzo smiled listening to his mom sweet voice.

"Mamma, we have an important meeting in the company today." Aurora shouted and Alonzo growled seeing his sister ruining his beauty sleep. Even thought, Alonzo comes home thrice in a week but Aurora makes sure, he have an early meeting the next morning as he thinks she is jealous of his beauty sleep.

"Nessun problema. His PA will clear his morning schedule." Natalia replied as she caressed Alonzo's hair while he opened his eyes and looked at his beautiful smiling Mom's face.

(Transalation:- No problem.)

Alonzo smiled at her and kept his head on her lap and snuggled into her.

"Mamma, Your Son is the CEO of the company." Aurora said.

"So, what? My husband is the Chairman of the company." Natalia countered back and Alonzo laughed looking at Aurora.

Aurora glared at him but he winked at her with a smirk. Aurora grabbed a pillow which is near her and throw it on to his face but unfortunately, Alonzo caughed it.

"Stop you both. Son, I will send your breakfast with the Maid. Have it, Okay." Natalia said and Alonzo nodded and got up from his Natalia's lap and rested his head on my headboard of the bed.

And Just then, his phone rang which is on the coffee table.

"Please pass the phone to me." Alonzo said to Aurora and she growled but walked towards the table and grabbed his phone.

"It's your fiancee, bro." Aurora rsaid with a smirk but Alonzo raised his eyebrows at her.

"Why she is calling me now? Isn't it so early in New York now?" Alonzo asked and Aurora nodded.

"Yup, maybe 4:30 am." Aurora replied and handed the phone to Alonzo.

Alonzo answered the phone and said.

"Hello."

"Good morning." Faith replied tiredly on the phone.

"Faith, Is there any problem? You called me at this time?" Alonzo asked.

"No, don't worry. There is no problem. Actually, I was studying the new case file for the whole night. I thought you are up until now so I called you. Did I disturb you?" Faith asked.

"No, Faith. You didn't." Alonzo repied with a smile and Aurora raised her eyebrows.

"Just a sec, Faith." Alonzo said on the phone.

"Yes." Faith replied.

Alonzo looked at Natalia and saw her questioning look.

"Nothing is wrong, Mom. She just wanted to talk to me." Alonzo said and she nodded her head with a smile and walked out of his room.

"Now, you. Get out Aurora." Alonzo shouted at her and she glared.

"You better get ready and come downstairs as soon as possible or I will complain to Dad." Aurora replied and he rolled his eyes.

"Okay, now get out." Alonzo said and she stormed out of his room closing the door behind her back.

"Hello." Alonzo said on the phone.

"Yes, Alonzo. Is Natalia and Aurora are near you? Did I disturb you guys?" Faith asked.

"No, Faith. I told you already, you didn't." Alonzo answered as he got up from his bed and walked out to the patio and the cold and fresh air hit him.

"Okay." Faith replied with a chuckle.

"Baby, I told you many times to not work at night. You need to rest too." Alonzo said.

"Yeah, I know. But, the case is important." Faith replied.

"Did you eat anything?" Alonzo asked.

"Yeah, I just had a coffee." Faith answered.

"That's it?" Alonzo asked.

"Umm... Yeah." Faith answered.

"Faith..." Faith cut off Alonzo in a mid-sentence.

"Alonzo, please stop now. I will eat something as soon as the cafeteria opens." Faith replied from the other side.

"Fine." Alonzo said.

"When are you coming to New York?" Faith asked.

"Soon, baby." Alonzo answered.

"I miss you." Faith said.

"I mis you too." Alonzo replied back.

"I love you." Faith said and Alonzo took a deep breath and said.

"Yeah... Me too..."

"I still have work to do. Bye, see you soon." Faith said.

"Bye." Alonzo replied and ended the call and sighed.

Alonzo feel so guilty that he couldn't say her I love you back wholeheartedly to her. He don't know, What is stopping him to say that?

Faith is a beautiful, kind-hearted, independent, down to earth person.

But, something is stopping him to say her I love you.

Yes, Alonzo proposed her to marry him 2 months back because he thought, she is perfect for me.

But after proposing her, he started thinking that did he took any wrong decision to marry her or what?

"Ahh, Dio. I'm going crazy." Alonzo said to himself.

(Transalatin: God)

"Alonzo, just don't think anything. You love Faith and want to share your life with her and your parents also like her. So, start planning for your wedding as soon as man." Alonzo said to himself again.

He kept his phone on the couch and took out his t-shirt and jumped into the pool.

Alonzo Di Angelo, the CEO of the Di Angelo Designer's. The top 2 fashion Companies in the whole world.

World know him as Dominant and Arrogant person. A devil in business. But, he love his family so much and will go to any extent to keep his family happy.

Faith is the CEO of her father's law firm. Alonzo met her 2 years ago when he was starting Di Angelo company in New York. Her firm takes care of his companies legal work.

He dated a few girls before her but no one was perfect like Faith.

Faith is a unique and beautiful girl. He couldn't take his eyes off her when Alonzo met her.

She is a lovely girl and everyone likes her so much.

Alonzo asked her for dinner and she accepted. They talked about each other. She is an easy-going girl. Maybe, that's why Alonzo is attracted to her.

They dated until Alonzo asked her to marry him and she said Yes.

She makes him smile, laugh and he feel good with her but he don't feel complete with her.

Alonzo feel like there is something missing and he don't know what it is?

Her parents accepted Alonzo and his parents accepted Faith.

Faith lives in New York and Alonzo lives in Italy but they talk frequently and do face times and he go to New York to see her, whenever Alonzo gets free time and Faith comes to Italy to see Alonzo whenever she is free.

Alonzo got out of the pool and grabbed a towel and dried off himself and walked inside his room to the restroom and got under the shower.

After showering, he wrapped a towel around his waist and walked out of his restroom to his walk-in-closet.

Alonzo wore his black expensive suit, shoes, and did his hair and walked out of his walk-in-closet, and saw his breakfast on the coffee table.

Alonzo had his breakfast and grabbed his phone. He kept it in his suit and walked out of his room to downstairs.

Alonzo saw his Dad and Mom are having a chat with each other and Aurora is busy seeing some files.

"Buongiorno papà." Alonzo greeted as he got down from the steps.

(Tra:- Good morning, Dad.)

"Buongiorno, Figliolo." Giovanni replied with a smile.

(Tra:- Good morning, Son.)

"Finalmente." Aurora said glarring at Alonzo.

(Tra:- Finally.)

"Why didn't you go to the company still?" Alonzo asked.

"I'm waiting for you to come." Aurora answered.

"Why?" Alonzo asked.

"What why? I want to come with you." Aurora answered.

"Kids, don't start your fight now. Come on, go to the company now." Giovanni said.

"Aren't you coming, Dad?" Alonzo asked.

"No, I'm going to the foundation with your mom today." Giovanni answered and Alonzo nodded.

"Let's go." Alonzo said and kissed Natalia's cheek.

"Yeah." Aurora replied and grabbed her bag.

"See you in the evening, Mom and Dad." Aurora said.

"See you. Take care, kids." Natalia replied and they both nodded and walked out of the house.

Alonzo got into the Driver seat and Aurora got into the passenger seat. Alonzo started the engine and started driving to the company.

"Where is your damn car?" Alonzo asked Aurora.

"In our Garage." Aurora answered.

"Then, why don't you take your car to the company?" Alonzo asked.

"Because, I wanna spend time with my brother." Aurora answered as she sees the file in her hands.

"Oh, but you look busy?" Alonzo asked.

"Nope, bro. I'm just checking the designs of the meeting." Aurora answered and Alonzo growled.

"I'm not coming to the home tonight. Tell your driver to pick you up." Alonzo said and she nodded.

"Okay." Aurora replied and Alonzo shook his head at her.

They soon reached their company and got out of the car and their both P.A's walked towards them.

"Good morning, Mr. Angelo and Ms. Angelo." Alonzo's P.A Salsa said.

"Good morning, Mr. Angelo and Aurora." Aurora's P.A said and Alonzo looked at him angrily and he gulped down.

"Sorry, Mr. Angelo. Good morning, Ms. Angelo." Aurora's P.A Kelvin said and Alonzo nodded.

"Bro, Don't scare my P.A. I told him to call me by my name." Aurora replied.

"Whatever, I don't care." Alonzo replied and Aurora growled.

"Good morning and Kevin, Salsa call me Aurora." Aurora said and Alonzo glared at her.

"What?" Aurora asked and Alonzo shook his head at her and walked away from her. Hegot into the Elevator with his P.A. pressed the button of the 40th floor and the doors got closed.

"Mr. Angelo, you have 3 meetings today. 1st meeting with the Designers and 2nd is with the marketing department and the last one is a board meeting about the New York company." Salsa said and Alonzo nodded his head.

"Your 1st meeting gonna start in 30 minutes, Mr. Angelo." Salsa said.

"Okay, bring me a coffee." Alonzo said.

"Yes, Mr. Angelo." Salsa replied and the Elevator doors got opened and they stepped out of the Elevator and Alonzo walked to his office.

He opened his office door and walked inside and sat on his chair and started his laptop and started checking his mails.

A knock on his door disturbed him.

"Come in." Alonzo said and the door got opened and my Salsa stepped inside and kept the coffee on my table.

Alonzo grabbed the coffee mug and started drinking.

"Mr. Angelo, the meeting is going to start." Salsa said and Alonzo nodded and kept the coffee on the table and took the meeting file from her and walked out of the office.

He briefly checked the file and gave it back to Salsa and walked to the conference room.

"Good morning, Mr. Angelo." The Designers said.

"Good morning, have your seats." Alonzo replied and sat on the head chair.

"Alonzo, these are the sketches of our new collection." Aurora said and passed him the sketches.

Alonzo looked at the sketches and said.

"These are good. Make it into a portfolio." Alonzo said and Aurora nodded.

"I will." Aurora replied and they continued their meetings for 1 hour about New Designers and fashion after that he went back to his office.

Alonzo also finished his meeting with the marketing department about advertising, sales, and profits and is in his 3rd meeting with his Board member discussing about the New York company.

"The sales are good in New York of our last collection. I hope the new collection brings us a huge profit." One shareholder said.

"But, what if the sales are low this time?" Another shareholder asked.

"Yes, the new collection we selected is from our new designers." Other shareholder said.

"So, we need to advertise a lot about the new collection." Another shareholder replied.

"And we need some famous people to advertise about it." Other shareholder said.

"Yes. What do you say, Mr. Angelo?" The shareholder asked.

"Yeah, we need to advertise about the new collection." Alonzo answered.

"Why don't you go to New York and take care of it? If this new collection makes a grand success then the Di Angelo will be in Top 1 in the world of the Fashion." One of the shareholder suggessted.

"Okay." Alonzo replied and they smiled.

Alonzo got up from his chair and said.

"Meeting adjourned." Alonzo said and walked out of the conference room and walked towards the Aurora office.

"Keep the jet ready. We are flying to New York tomorrow." Alonzo said Salsa.

"Yes, Mr. Angelo." Salsa replied and walked to her office.

Alonzo opened Aurora's office door and walked inside and looked around but didn't find her in her office. He also checked her restroom but he didn't find her there too.

So, Alonzo went to Aurora's secretary's office and opened the door.

"Mr. Angelo?" Kelvin asked.

"I couldn't find Aurora in her office? Where is she?" Alonzo asked.

"She is in the rest area." Kelvin answered and Alonzo nodded.

"Okay, you can continue." Alonzo said and walked out of his office and got into the Elevator. He reached the 20th floor and got out of the Elevator. Alonzo walked towards the cafeteria and got two orange juice and walked towards the rest area.

"Excuse me?" Alonzo called an employee, who was passing him.

"Yes, Mr. Angelo. How may I help you?" The employee asked.

"Did you saw, Ms. Angelo anywhere?" Alonzo asked.

"Yes, Mr. Angelo. There she is." The Employee answerd pointing his finger to the pod.

"Thank you."Alonzo said and walked towards the big couch.

Alonzo saw her sitting in the big couch and sketching something in her book but she isn't looking interested in that at all.

"What happened to the Designer of  Di Angelo Companies?" Angelo asked and she looked up at him.

"Nothing." Aurora answered and moved and Alonzo sat down in the pot beside her and handed her orange juice.

"Thank you." Aurora replied and kept her head on Alonzo's shoulder.

"What happened, Aurora?" Alonzo asked.

"I said, Nothing bro." Aurora answered.

"Okay then, You bored?" Alonzo asked.

"Yup." Aurora answered as she took a sip of her drink.

"Don't you have any meetings?" Alonzo asked.

"No." Aurora answered.

"Okay. Then, why don't you go shopping?" Alonzo asked.

"I don't want to go alone. Will you come with me?" Aurora asked.

"Umm... Okay." Alonzo answered and she looked excited.

"Really?" Aurora asked with a smile.

"Yes." Alonzo answered with the same smile.

"Hello, guys." A voice interuppted them and Alonzo, Aurora looked up at him and sa3w Geremia, Alonzo's best friend. Looking at him Aurora rolled her eyes.

Geremia is the CEO of Bia Airlines and his father is the Chairman of the Airlines as Geremia is the only son of the Mr. Bianchi.

Geremia is the same age as Alonzo's and the most eligible bachelor in Italy. He isn't arrogant and Dominant like Alonzo. He is a soft and easy-going person. But, he always tries to mess up with Aurora.

"Why do you always come to our company, Gere? Don't you have any work to do in your company?" Aurora asked and Alonzo chuckled.

"I have Honey. But what can I do, when I wanted to see your brother?" Geremia asked.

"Yuck. He already has a Fiancee. So, go away." Aurora replied.

"You little Devil. I'm straight." Geremia said and Aurora laughed and Alonzo too joined her.

"You both... I hate you." Geremia said.

"I hate you too. Now, go to your company and leave us alone. We are going shopping." Aurora said.

"You both going shopping leaving me alone?" Geremia asked.

"Yes, we are." Aurora replied.

"I am coming with you." Geremia said.

"No, we are not taking you." Aurora replied.

"I didn't ask you. I am telling you." Geremia said and Aurora growled.

"Calm down, guys. Aurora let's take him too." Alonzo said and she nodded.

"Fine." Aurora replied.

They all reached Lobby and walked out of the Company and got into my car and Alonzo started driving to the Mall.

"Aurora, I am leaving for New York tomorrow." Alonzo said.

"Okay, when will you be back?" Aurora asked.

"Maybe in 10 days." Alonzo replied.

"Okay, I will inform Dad." Aurora said and Alonzo nodded.

They all soon reached the mall and Alonzo parked the car and they all walked inside the mall.

They shopped. Correction. Aurora shopped for almost 3 hours and Alonzo's and Geremia's hands are filled with the expensive shopping bags.

"You little devil. how much you want to shop?" Geremia asked.

"Can't you wait. I still didn't finish my shopping yet." Aurora replied while walking in front of them.

"Man, tell your sister to stop now. I am hungry." Geremia said.

"Yes, I got the store." Aurora said as she stopped in front of the Victoria Secret store.

"You guys wanna come inside?" Aurora asked and Geremia growled.

"No, we are good here." Alonzo said and Aurora ahrugged her shoulders.

"No, we are not. You complete your shopping and come to the food court. We will be waiting for you there." Geremia replied.

"Okay." Aurorasaid and walked towards Alonzo.

"What?" Alonzo asked.

"Your card. How will I buy things without your card?" Aurora asked and Alonzo rolled his eyes and handed her one of his black shining card and Aurora walked inside the store with a big smile.

"Is your sister crazy? Why the hell is she calling us inside the Victoria secret store?" Geremia asked and Alonzo shrugged as they walked towards the food court.

Alonzo stopped in mid way as his eye caught a store.

"You go. I will join you." Alonzo said and walked towards the store.

Alonzo looked around the store and a pair of earrings caught his eye.

"Can I see that?" Alonzo asked the man behind his desk.

"Sure, sir." The man said taking out the pair of earrings and gave it to Alonzo.

'These are so beautiful. Faith will look gorgeous in these." Alonzo said to himself.

"Pack this." Alonzo said.

"Yes, sir." The man replied.

Alonzo gave him card and paid the bill and took the bag from him and walked out of the store to the food court.

"What took you so long?" Geremia asked as he took a bite of his sandwich.

"Nothing." Alonzo replied.

"Ahh! I'm done with my shopping." Aurora said and she walked towards Alonzo and Geremia.

"Then, have something." Geremia replied and they nodded and sat on their chairs and ordered their food and started eating.

They walked out of the mall to their car and theey dropped Geremia at his company and Aurora at their house and Alonzo went to my penthouse as he have an early flight to New York tomorrow.
