Chapter 122 Because of Grandma...
Chapter 122 Because of Grandma...
ALESSANDRO'S POV...
The moment I watched Dominic sitting on my chair, I felt my soul burn in betrayal and fury. So, I was
right. Dominic is doing everything to take me down from my position, isn't he? At least, his expression
is speaking of his intention this time.
I walked inside my office, suppressing the urge to punch his sorry face directly.
"What are you doing in my office?" I asked angrily. Couldn't suppress the bitterness rolling off of me.
Dominic leaned back on the chair, crossing his legs together and smiled wickedly, "Well, a director ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
should seat on his chair, don't you think, brother? I am just doing what I should do a long time back."
He said.
His tone sounded so calm yet the hidden threat was visible there too.
"What do you mean?" I stepped forward, getting alarmed by his demands.
Dominic chuckled as if he is enjoying this situation. Well, he is doing that for sure. He picked up a white
file that was placed just before him on the desk and threw the file toward me on the table.
"Take a look at it, first. Then we will talk." Dominic said contemptuously as he stared at me with a
glimpse of despair.
Frowning, I picked up the file and opened it. In the bold later the headline was written, 'Share transfer
contract'.
Immediately, I started reading the contract and slowly I felt my blood turning colder the more I read the
contract further. And at one point, I felt like my ground shook under my feet and my blood rushed into
my head.
I already realised what he did. Feeling aggrieved, I slammed the contract on the table in annoyance
and cursed him, "So it's really you, huh?" I smiled bitterly at the man whom I thought was a brother and
wanted to share all my properties with him.
"You did it, finally, didn't you, Dominic? You aimed for Reywalt and you get it. You came back only for
this, don't you?" Yeah, in mind, I am still hoping that he is only aiming for Reywalt and not something
else...
Dominic leaned on the chair and smiled only, he didn't answer my question.
I continued, "I also know that you are the one who freed Camilla from prison. You are the one who has
had a physical relationship with her and in the end, you are the one who shoots her. Why Dominic?
Why are you doing all these things?"
I was angry but I was hurt too. I never thought my own brother would do such a thing to me. It made
me somewhat devastated and broke from the inside.
I just want one answer, why?
"You know, Dominic. If you ask me to give you your shares, I would have given you without any
objection. As the elder son Of Devontes, you deserve to get this. You could have just asked. Why you
chose this way? Why?"
Dominic grunted and then smiled, I could see the bitterness rolling off him, "Why? didn't your dearest
grandmother tell you?" He asked and I frowned.
"What do you mean?" I asked, turning more alert this time.
Dominic laughed suddenly, "Oh brother, how innocent you are!?" He laughed again before continuing,
"Even if you willingly give me the shares, Grandma wouldn't let you! And if you want to know the
reason, You better ask that old vixen. What she did to me back then!" His face turned colder and blue
eyes darkened with hatred.
Suddenly, I recalled Grandma's previous words, 'Never let Dominic interfere in the company.' She was
specific and I knew something was off in her tone, but I didn't realise it back then.
Everything is just too confusing! And nkw his disrespect toward the woman who practically raised us
alone by herself!
"What are you talking about? How is grandma involved in everything!? Why are you being disrespectful
toward her!?" I asked in a daze.
Dominic's lips curved into an evil smirk, "Five years ago, I almost died in the fire accident. Do you know
who caused it?" He raised his brow at me and I shook my head honestly, "Wasn't it just an accident?"
"Heh!" He mocked me, "No dear brother. It was not an accident but a cold plan of a cunning vixen. The
accident was caused by your dearest grandmother." He chuckled...
"She thought I died that night but she never realised I was alive and then I returned!" He slammed his
hand on the desk, fuming in anger. "Did you hear it, Andro!? Your grandmother tried to kill me!"
"What!?" I stood stunned. All my calculations started falling apart when he once again sat on the chair
and his expression turned relaxing.
"Let's get into the main topic now, shall we?" He smiled.
"I have bought 45% of the company shares from our aunt and other board members, and you only
have 43%, I urge you to give the Director's position to me! Well, even if you don't give that to me
willingly, it doesn't matter, I already own it, my dear little brother..." His lips curved once again into his
usual smirk that spoke of his evil nature.
"Aunt gave you her shares?" I asked, slowly falling into a daze that was hard to come out from. At this
point, I am losing it all. It feels like, all my family members were never mine and they are supporting
him from the start.
I badly need Victoria beside me right now. I don't know why, but other than her, I just can't trust anyone!
Isn't it funny? I guess history repeats itself and kept reminding us that what mistakes we made in the
past.
Years ago, I ignored Victoria and never trusted her but my family members and years later, I started
realising how much of a fool I was. The woman I despised before, now turned to my strongest pillar and
the only person I could ever trust.
Dominic pushed the paper toward me, "Sign it, Andro. It says you are giving me your position willingly
as I am the highest shareholder in the company. Maybe, I will think of you as the CEO then?" He
smirked.
I stared at my brother. He has caught me from every side. It doesn't really matter if I sign the contract
or not. As per the rules, the one who holds the highest share is the one to get the head position of
Reywalt. The sign only means I am giving my consent.
With forty per cent share, I used to hold the highest share and now, with forty-five per cent, it's Dominic.
I need to agree with it even if I don't like it.
"Don't waste time, brother. There are lots of works to do!" He urged me to sign.
I sighed inwardly. Maybe, he doesn't like me and I don't know why grandmother tried to kill him. This is
something I am confused about and need to talk to grandma. Maybe, he is thinking wrongly. Grandma
can't do this, right?
Slowly, I walked toward the desk and picked up the pen in my hand, I opened the contract and my gaze
dropped to the place where I need to sign.
I turned around for the last time to my office, that I decorated according to my choice. When I first
entered this office and take over the position from Grandma, I was so happy and excited. I vowed to
take care of the company and the employees like my own family. But...
I guess, I lost it. My journey as the director of Reywalt has ended here. I felt my vision started blurring
as I hold the pain on the paper.
My soul is suffocating and my hand trembling. It felt like, I am losing a huge part of me. Something, I
adore with my entire heart. I am losing a home and my pride...
But, this is destined and I need to accept it.
With another sharp breath, I put down the pen on the paper and was about to sign, when...
The door of the office opened loudly,
"Wait!" A sharp and loud familiar female voice echoed in the room, freezing me on the spot. It's not
familiar but the most familiar sound that I was yearning for.
I blinked at first, am I hearing things now? Am I imagining things? I turned around and gasped at her
presence. No! I was not hearing wrong! She is here! Victoria is here!
Soon, following her, grandmother walked in, making me double surprised. I blinked in a daze.
"Victoria? Grandma? What are you guys doing here?!" I asked, confused and devastated.
