chapter 179
After checking their belongings had been set up, Damon had gone to the kitchen to see Rosario, his nanny who had always been at their service. He’d been afraid she wouldn’t like Olivia because she was like a second mother to her.
-So, my boy, how are you? It’s been a long time, and I’m very happy for you because I know this woman is the one. How did you meet this rare pearl?
could he talk about the circumstances under which he’d met olivia turner? a love affair born of a bet was impossible, so he just smiled at her and poured himself a glass of water. their meeting was unique and he wasn’t going to tell anyone about it except their friends, who knew. as he finished his glass of water, he left the kitchen and went into the living room. he was admiring the photo of his father that was still hanging when he heard footsteps behind him. he turned and saw the man who now shared his mother’s life, the man he hated more than anything without knowing why.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
So my son-in-law is back home, what a wonderful surprise. I imagine all the beautiful girls in New Orleans are on vacation.
-first of all Richard, I’m not your son-in-law. you may be in a relationship with my mother and living under my late father’s roof, but you’re not my father-in-law. how many girls I’m banging in new Orleans is none of your business.
-You don’t love me, that’s for sure, but you’re obliged to put up with me for your mother’s sake, big boy, so a little effort and you’ll be fine, don’t you think?
-I’ve never trusted you because I’ve never understood why it was only after my father’s disappearance that you came into my mother’s life, supposedly to be there for her. I don’t know what you’re after or what you want, but I promise you I’ll find out what you’re up to in the end, and that same day, you’ll lose my mother.
Richard puffed out his chest and stepped closer to Damon, the two men glaring at each other with anger ready to explode. Richard didn’t like the fact that Damon didn’t want him in their family, yet he wanted to be with Yolanda.
-I warn you not to try anything Damon Dixon or else…
-or else what? you’ll murder me maybe? What? you’re a drug dealer then? right now I don’t want to argue with you because I’m here for my mother, but if I ever find out that you want to hurt her, I’ll hurt you and you’ll remember me for the rest of your life, so watch out.
Raging with anger at the fact that the young man who had just threatened him could be his son, Richard was about to throw a punch when Damon grabbed his hand.
-I forbid you to threaten me because I’m with your mother and she’s an adult who knows what she wants.
the scream had alerted Yolanda and Olivia. Oliva realized that the voice didn’t belong to Damon at all, and she saw how worried Yolanda was, so she knew it must be the man Damon had described as a “fat pig”. When they arrived in the living room, they were looking at each other as if they were going to jump each other, and Olivia realized that she’d never seen Damon so angry.
-My God Richard, what’s going on?
-I think you should ask your despicable son. He can’t respect the man his mother loves. I’m not asking for much, just a little respect. Is it that hard, Yolanda? All I want is to make you happy, but your son doesn’t want to understand that. What does he want me to do to prove to him that I’m sincere with you?
Damon wasn’t moved at all by this speech, because he knew from the start that this man was lying, just as he had spent all his time lying to his mother without any scruples. Yolanda wanted to calm her son down, but she couldn’t give up on Richard.
-Damon, please come with me,” Olivia begged.
He didn’t move an inch and continued to stare murderously at Richard, who looked at him as if to taunt him that Yolanda was still on his side. Damon didn’t know what he could do to open his mother’s eyes.
-Damon, I understand that your relationship with Richard hasn’t always been the best, but you have to understand that after your father died, he was the best man who supported me and stayed by my side, so please respect that love, just to see your mother happy, will you?
-Do you really believe that man like he says Mom? Do you think he’s sincere with you?
-Yes, Damon, I’m a big person and I know when someone is serious or not, so I’d like you to make an effort for me, just for me to be with him.
he couldn’t accept that. when he’d arrived, he’d hoped the man might have gone on a trip or something, but he hadn’t expected to see him on his father’s property. he could see how upset his mother was, but he wasn’t ready to give her what she wanted, so he left the living room without a word. Olivia didn’t know what to do. She hadn’t expected to experience such a scene on the very day of her arrival.
-I’m going to see him,” she said as she left.
Richard took the opportunity to check out her ass, which Yolanda hadn’t seen at all, since she was busy thinking about the situation pitting her son against the man she wanted.
