Billionaire Maid

It was time for some answers, as Nonno started speaking...

"I was in high school when I met Maryann, your grandmother.

She was very beautiful, strikingly beautiful. Every boy in our school wanted to court her. I started talking to her, went out with her a couple of times, we clicked and we started dating.

I fell in love with her, I loved her very much. One of the things I loved about her was her sense of humor. She was so witty. She wasn't scared of anything, a self-made personality."

He said while his face was contorted with thought. He was trying to live his past. He was living his past.

"Then my mother noticed our relationship, she wasn't happy about it. She didn't like Maryann's family, she thought that they were below her but they weren't poor, they were comfortable. They were normal and happy unlike my family.

When I refused to stop dating Maryann she threatened her. She told Maryann to end her relationship with me. Maryann also refused, she was happy being with me. My mother then went to her house, she threatened them. I don't know what she told them but it was enough to make Maryann end the relationship on our graduation day."

A lone tear rolled down his cheek, I felt like comforting him but I was glued to my seat.

"I was furious, I resented my mother. I didn't speak to her until I finished college.

Two weeks after, Maryann told me that she was pregnant. I was still so angry, even more furious that she brought that news to me. I told her that I want nothing to do with her and other things I'm not proud of. I regret saying things and doing things at that time."

He paused then looked away from me.

"She then came with her father to my house and reported to my parents about the baby.

My father said if I was the father of Maryann's baby I would have to stay back a year and go the following year when the baby was born.

I couldn't believe that she was the same Maryann I fell in love with. I was angry that she told her father. I told my father that we ended things three weeks ago.

I started resenting myself when I left; all I could do was throw myself into studying.

When I returned to Spain she had given birth to a girl. She was six years old and she was beautiful just like her mom. Maryann named her, Bria, your mother." He stopped and then stood up.

"I told Maryann that I was sorry for leaving her and she told me she didn't want to have anything to do with me again. She allowed me to see Bria though.

When Bria got older she started resenting me, Maryann told her everything. Bria didn't want to have anything to do with me. She thought that I betrayed her and her mother.

Maryann died when your mother just had you, but Maryann forgave me, she still wanted nothing to do with me. Your mother didn't want anything to do with me; she didn't even want you to know me. I gave her no choice though, she's still my daughter." He finished.

"So why didn't I know about your wealth? Does my mother know?" He smiled at me.

"Your mother knows about my wealth, she used to live with me when she was still in high school. For me to be a part of your life, she asked me to keep my wealth to myself and away from you. She said she didn't want my help financially. I agreed seeing it was the only way to be with you. I know about your mother's condition in the hospital but she would never accept my money." He sighed.
