chapter 268
that evening, Paolo felt so alone at home, because when he wasn’t drinking like an alcoholic, he at least realized that he had a son and a cousin, which was why he felt so bad. he wanted his son back, and given Finn’s threat, he couldn’t try to approach him, so the only thing he could do at the moment was to see Betty, who with her new life of “I’m looking for a powerful man” could help bring his son back to him. all he had to do was get her to do what was necessary. he left his apartment and, as he didn’t have much to do, he got into his car and drove to her house. when he rang the doorbell, he waited for minutes before hearing the sound of a key in the lock. he wondered what she was doing to take so long. when the door opened on her, he saw her wearing a man’s shirt that wasn’t even buttoned. he frowned, not understanding, but she seemed to be in such a hurry that he had to tell her quickly what had brought him. He saw a man slumped on the sofa with his already wrinkled member on full display. He realized that his little Betty was straddling him. without embarrassment, he took his place on the sofa opposite the one Richard was lying on, while Betty searched him with her eyes, but he didn’t care about that.
-I think a threesome would be even more exciting, don’t you think, Betty? you’re really good at it, aren’t you?
Hearing this man’s voice, Richard stood up and took a long look at Paolo, trying to recognize him, but it was impossible because he didn’t think he’d ever seen him before. He looked up at Betty, who was wringing her hands. she could already see everything she’d been building going down the drain because of Paolo’s madness. it was impossible for her to know exactly what Richard was thinking, and she hoped he’d be a little lenient with her.
-You didn’t tell me you were collecting men at your apartment and even worse the day you clearly invited me to your place.
-It’s not what you think, Richard. Paolo is my son’s father and I imagine that if he’s here, it’s because he has something important to tell me about my son, otherwise he wouldn’t have come. there’s nothing between us. i’m a very ambitious woman to give in to this kind of man, you know. now Paolo, may i ask what you’re doing here and what you want?
He lay back on the sofa as if he hadn’t heard anything, while Betty breathed out in exasperation. She didn’t understand what this man wanted from her, but he mustn’t continue his madness, because even if she had to do worse just to get him out of the way, she’d do it without hesitation. Richard reached for his pants to put them on, but very quickly Betty took them from his hands and glared at Paolo, who was acting as if nothing had happened. Like a virgin feeling desire all over his body, Richard kept squealing and Paolo was sick of hearing his cries, which were so disgusting in the ear that he sat up and glared at them, but the other two seemed so caught up in their merry-go-round that he thought he’d better leave before he put a curse on them.
-It’s all right, Betty, you let go of what you’re doing and listen to me now, because I’m not going to repeat myself, and what I’m asking you to do is the only thing, and if you don’t do it, you’re going to regret the reason I showed you the way to Russia seven years ago.
-I don’t see why you have to make threats, Paolo. What would you like me to do?
-Finn Martinov took my son and my cousin away from me. I screwed up, yes, I screwed up, but that’s no reason for him to take my family away from me, so you’re going to do everything you can to get my son back. After all, you’re Betty and you know how to handle men, don’t you? you’re going to do the same to get him to let Vlad go.
-you’re in deep shit here Paolo. first your sister is in the hands of Dimitri Savoski and now your cousin is in the hands of Finn Martinov, do you know that you’ve got Russia’s two super giants on your back and you won’t be able to handle the load? what are you doing to get Finn to take Vlad away from you because I know that man never goes after children and innocent women too so what the hell have you done this time?
-What I’ve done is none of your business. I’d like you to do what I’m asking you to do to bring my son back to me, so tonight you can put on your “I seduce all the rich men” cape and that way you can coax him back to me.
Elena grinned with all her teeth as if she were about to hit the jackpot, and yes, she had every intention of succeeding, except that Richard had seen what she was thinking and didn’t agree at all. He wasn’t the jealous type, but he couldn’t see himself sharing the same woman with Finn, and not far from it, Betty wasn’t at all the kind of woman he’d dare waste his time looking at; the proof was that she’d tried to seduce him for two nights and never succeeded. the strategy she wanted to adopt was more likely to make her lose, and yet what he was thinking about could earn him a bundle.
-What you’re thinking about is the wrong way to go, my dearest Betty, and as for you, Paolo, since what happens next doesn’t concern you anymore, I think I should stay alone with my Betty and talk about it. You’ll have your son and that’s all that matters.
-I’m not stupid, my dear Richard, so either you talk about it while I’m here, or I won’t move from here. I’m not asking you to let me fuck your whore, just to find out what strategy she’s going to use to bring me my son. He’s my son, I’ll have you know, so no, I won’t go.
-She didn’t want to wake her neighbors to come and help her separate two men in her apartment, the other completely naked.
-Fine. you want to use seduction, you won’t be able to get Finn Martinov because this man doesn’t like Russian dolls, and even if you’re a New Orleanian, it won’t make any difference to him given your air of fun, so the threat will be what counts to do it. you threaten Finn that if he doesn’t let him go, you’ll be able to link him to a child-trafficking ring, and that if you let the kid go, there’ll have to be a sum of money attached to it. you’ll be able to make up a fake medical file for your cousin to prove that she’s crazy, and that way, the odds will be in your favor. Finn cares about his image, so he won’t do anything but drop the case, I assure you.
Betty nodded, looking at Richard with a triumphant smile. At last, the man had given her the perfect idea and she was sure it would work to blackmail Finn. She would have preferred to seduce him and become his companion in order to let Richard down, but since that was impossible, she wasn’t about to give up the money she was going to receive because, after all, her son wasn’t the most important thing to her since she didn’t have the time to deal with a kid all the time. Paolo eventually left, and at Richard’s request, she continued what she was doing with him.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
For the rest of the evening, Finn didn’t see Elena and Vlad because he had an emergency to deal with, and it concerned his business, so he had to do it as soon as possible. he’d finished so late that when he decided to go to bed, he didn’t know where Elena and Vlad had gone to bed. he went to his room to change before going to the other room he’d occupied the day before, but when he got there, he saw that the bed was empty and all made up. panicking that they’d left, he hurried out and went to the other room where he’d put Vlad’s toys away, they were both fast asleep. he felt relieved and took a seat on the edge of the bed. They looked so peaceful this way, and he promised himself he’d make sure they were always like this. He pulled the comforter up over their bodies and left the room. He was planning to go to the office the next day, and to do that he’d have to make sure security was reinforced for them.
punctual as he was, Finn was already ready to leave at seven in the morning when he heard light knocks on his bedroom door. he went to open it and saw Vlad, who had just woken up. he carried him in and sat him down on his bed, then squatted down in front of him.
-Did you sleep well, champ?
-Yes, very well, but you’re dressed like you’re leaving. -Are you going somewhere?
-Yes, I’m going to the office. You know I’m a businessman, so I mustn’t make jokes for fear of running out of food one day, and you? what do you have planned for the day?
-I don’t know. I didn’t know you were leaving and now that you’re here, I don’t know what I can do. Could I come with you and see how we work, please?
Finn looked at him more seriously but without being harsh. He was happy to know that he wanted to learn and above all to come with him, because at least it reassured him that he wasn’t afraid of him, but it wasn’t the ideal day, since he was going to have a lot of things to do, like holding his morning lectures, and he didn’t want to hand him over to Caroline on the first day.
-I’ll be back as soon as I’ve finished and we’ll spend the rest of the day together, I promise. I’ve got enough to do and I wouldn’t want you to get into trouble without me.
-Okay, but it’s gonna suck without you. Elena can’t play like you.
Finn ruffled his hair as the kid went into a fit of giggles. He was happy because he was asking for him and that proved to him that no matter what Paolo might try, he wasn’t going to win at all. He wasn’t going to let Vlad go again for anything in the world, unless he decided to, and even if that ever happened, he was going to convince him by all means to stay with him.
-And here you are at last. Who said you had to leave the bed and room without telling anyone, eh? asked Elena, who’d just arrived.
-You wanted to see Finn before he left, and I know that, so I helped you hold him back a little, as you can see,” replied Vlad, smiling.
Finn gave Elena a mischievous smile as she flushed.
