The Billionaire 3: Tyron Cruz novel Chapter 7

Tyron returned Zarina’s phone after talking…arguing with Isabella. He sighed as he took his seat. He doesn’t know how to reach out to his wife, he’s been doing what he thinks is right to make their marriage work.

They might be married because of a contract and not because of love but he still respects their marriage and vows. But all Isabella did was to accuse him of having an affair with Reina. He did take Reina for a dinner but it was a long time ago and it never happened again.

He went back to the documents he was reading earlier when his secretary knocks and opened the door.

“Sir, Don Samuel Morgan is outside and wants to talk to you.” Zarina said making him frown.

“What does he want now?” He thought to himself.

“Sir? Should I let him in or—”

“Let him in.” Tyron answered. Zarina nodded and let the old Don in. “Don Samuel.” He said as soon as the old Don entered his office.

“It’s good to see you, Tyron Cruz.” The Don said as he approaches.

“Take a seat, Don Samuel.” He said, firmly looking at the old man. He cannot help not to observe him and frown. There is something wrong with the Don Samuel standing in front of him, the old man who is screaming with power at first glance is no longer found.

“Don’t be so formal, we are now family, isn’t it?” The Don said grinning as he took a seat.

“Screw you!” He said firmly. “I may have married your precious granddaughter but I still haven’t forgotten that you are the reason why father died!” He said as his eyes were raging with anger and hatred towards the old Don.

“Don’t forget that my son is with your father that day, Tyron!” The Don said clenching his jaw. “What happened is an accident.”

“no! It is not an accident.” Tyron said sternly. “You cannot just accept that your son and my father is in good terms and you tried to pull them apart!”

“believe what you want to believe, Tyron.” The Don sighs as he shakes his head. “I am not here to argue with you about the past.” He added. “I am here to talk to you about my granddaughter.” He sighs. “Take good care of her, she’s the only living memory of my son. I know that your marriage with her is sudden and you just agreed to it for the company, but please make her happy, Tyron.” He added.

Tyron is sure that he saw a hint of sadness and longing in the Don’s eyes but it suddenly gone in a glimpse of an eye.

“I will take care of her even if you don’t ask.” He said and the Don nods and smile for a bit.

“That’s good then, I just want to make sure.” Don Samuel said and stood up. “I will not take your time anymore. See you around as I will enjoy my retirement.” He added and heads to the door. “And oh, Tyron, no parent wants to see his child die.” He said before leaving the office, leaving Tyron all confused.

After Don Samuel’s sudden visit, Tyron tried to concentrate on his work but failed to do so. The Don’s last words keep ringing on his ears.

“Damn!” He cursed and runs his fingers to his hair. “Is it possible that he really has nothing to do with the incident?” He asked his self. “But Don Samuel is a conning man.” He sighs and toss the documents aside and grabs his phone from the side.

He dialled Isabella’s number but it just kept on ringing. He called her multiple times until it was picked by her manager, turns out that Isabella is doing a shoot.

“Please tell her to call me later when she’s done.” Tyron said before cutting the line. He doesn’t know but he wanted to hear his wife’s voice.

Tyron can’t help not to frown and feel bored during their meeting, the marketing team is not doing their job well, they keep on repeating what they had talk from their previous meeting.

“Stop!” He said, firmly and full of authority. It was not his nature to cut-off the person who is presenting but this time he lost his patience.

“I hate the concept!” He said firmly. “I thought, I already informed you last meeting the points that I want to see for the commercial.” He added, disappointed. “I want our commercial to be realistic and to show various moral and values that it will touch the heart of the people and make them feel safe and secure whenever they ride our airplanes. What I want is for the people to keep their trust in our airlines.” He sternly said. “I expect the best presentation within two days, Miss Bella already accepted the offer and our meeting with her will be held next week.” His employees suddenly felt the burden and murmured to each other. “We have no choice because we can only get one day of her time next week. If there are no other concerns, meeting adjourn!” He stood up and leave the conference room.

Tyron is seated on his office but he cannot do any work, he is bothered with his marriage with Isabella and what Don Samuel said before leaving.

“No parent wants to see his child die.”

Don Samuel’s last words keep on ringing on his ears.

He lost his father nineteen years ago, at a young age, it was believed that what happened is an accident but his family believed that it was Don Samuel’s fault. He just cannot accept the fact that his son and his father are getting along and is planning to venture in to new business together.

The family feud between the Morgan and the Cruz started for three generations and until now there is no definite reason of the cause. He grew up with the knowledge that the two families are at war but he doesn’t know have any idea why. But what triggered him to hate the old Don is because he is the reason why he lost his father at the age of seven. It was a very heart breaking and devastating phase not just on him but his mother and brother.
