Everything He Wants

Business & Family

VALENTINO POV

"What's going on Elijah? What's so important" I poured myself a glass of bourbon and took a sip "I and Jaelynn are getting married" I started to choke on my drink "your kidding? Tell me your kidding" Elijah nodded his head no "well I uh- congratulations son I can tell you love her"

I wasn't too sure how to feel about this situation but then it dawned on me "dad I and Jaelynn want to combine our businesses" and there it is I fucking knew it "yeah I kinda figured that Elijah, you know just don't run my business to the ground" at this point I'm just gonna put all my trust in this boy it's all he ever wanted my full trust "dad I love you" I know I'm hard on Elijah and I don't let know how proud I am of him but I'm am proud "I love you too son"

After I and Elijah talked for about an hour I heard the door open it was Gabriel he's been off the grid for weeks now he just comes and go's "Gabriel where have you been? It's almost been three weeks" Gabriel laid on the couch "dad I've been in Texas" what the hell? "Texas!?" He nodded his head yes "why?" He laughed "I have friends there" of course he does "have you spoken to your brother?"

"No what's up?" I sighed "he's getting married and he wants to combine the businesses" his eyebrows shot up in shock "the hell he is" Gabriel stormed out of the house I'm guessing to find Elijah well not my problem

Before I could go upstairs I heard a knock on the door. What the fuck? Can't a man relax goddamn it I went to the door and opened it never gonna believe who it is Jasmine Dè Lèon "Hi Valentino" I took a deep breath but noticed Lucas was in the car waiting on her I let her walk-in

"Look Valentino I just want to say I didn't know who Lucas was and when I found out I didn't know about the bad blood between your family and his"

"But when you did find out you stayed I'm surprised you're still alive Jasmine" she wiped her tears before they start to flow
"Valentino I don't hate you as much anymore and I really can't have you hating me" I don't hate her how can I hate her? She was there when I was at my lowest "Jasmine I don't hate you I love you" I stepped closer to her tucking a small string of hair behind her ear I kissed her lips softly but she quickly stepped back "you don't mean that if you did you would've never shattered my heart over and over again, I have to go now goodbye Valentino" and just like that she was gone when she got into the car with Lucas she kissed him and had a huge smile on her face

I've fucked up and it's all my fault nobody else's all mine

GABRIEL POV

Baby bro getting married and shit but combining businesses? I don't know how he can't do that, can he? No cause I'm higher on the board than him and he knows this what the fuck Elijah I finally arrived at his house I got my car and started banging on the door the door opened but it was Jaelynn in a silk robe I see what Elijah loves about her

"Jaelynn darling let's have a chat shall we?" Her hair was wet so I'm guessing she got out shower "Gabriel are you high?" I laughed "not the point honey" me and her went into the kitchen we sat down at the island "congratulations" I point out the damn rock on her finger eh it could've been bigger "thanks" I smiled "so you guys want to combine your dads business and The Esposito's" she bites her lip "yes it's good for business Gabriel we will make more money have more members and have more power it's a smart move" I started to think about it

She's not wrong "you know Jaelynn the more I look at you I just can't help but think about your mother" she rolled her eyes out of irritation "so Jaelynn do I need to sign papers?" She said yes and went into Elijah's office to grab the papers she handed me the files I read all the papers very carefully "hmmm looks pretty good and not shady" Jaelynn laughed damn she has a pretty laugh I sighed the papers and I didn't put Gabriel Esposito I put Gabriel Cōsta.
