Chapter fifty three

Authoress POV
Sylvester had made it this far. He is now in the home of the man he hates so much.
He has seen the face of Mr Adams after so many years of waiting.
Mr Adams has, on his own, fixed the wedding date between his daughter, Bella, and Sylvester the billionaire.
Mr Adams has no idea of what Sylvester is plotting against him behind his back.
He foolishly gives his daughter up, into the hands of Sylvester unaware of the consequences of his actions.
What action will Dave take .after his marriage with the only child of Mr Adams?
You will just have to continue till the end of this book to find out.
Bella POV
I feel so happy that my dad has finally accepted Sylvester. I thought he would continue to be stubborn.
I smiled as I watched dad and Sylvester get along so well.
It's almost as if they had known each other in the past.
It's amazing the way that Sylvester actually feels the same about me in such a short period of time.
At first I thought that I was in this for the money and the fame but now it feels much more than that.
I now feel like Sylvester is the only one for me.
I'm ready to spend the rest of my life with him.
Sylvester POV
I'm so angry right now. I thought I had caused a problem between the father and daughter but...
I never knew that I was just fixing things between them. Mr Adams even dared to accept me with open arms.
Anyways, that can easily be made up for, once I marry his daughter. What's hurting me right now is that, in all this pain I'm feeling on the inside, I have to put on a smile and laugh with them on the outside.
She has no idea what's coming her way.
Elizabeth POV
Seeing everyone eating together and getting along brings joy to my heart.
I had known it right from the start that my daughter would find a man for herself.
A man who would see past her outside and get to know her on the inside.
She is so lucky to have found a man like Sylvester who cares for her and loves her the same.
Watching their act of love from up the stairs was so touching.
I know that their love for each other will last till eternity.
Adams POV
Just seeing my daughter this happy brings joy to my heart. I had been very suspicious of Sylvester but now I know that I have been so wrong about him.
He really loves my daughter.
We were done eating and we all retired to the living room.
"How did you like the food Sylvester? My chef is a professional isn't he?" I asked.
"So it's a he? The food was splendid." Sylvester said.
"Of course it's a he. It's not just women that can cook." I said.
"I've realized that just now. I always thought that women are better cools than men. After this food that I just had, my mind thinks quite the opposite." Sylvester said.
"I'm glad you like it." My wife said to Sylvester.
"I'm afraid I have to retire to my room now. I don't usually like staying in the living room." My wife said.
"It's not a problem madam." Sylvester said.
My wife stood up and made to leave. I could see her signal my daughter to follow suit.
"I think I'll go with mom. I'll be right back. Bye love, bye dad." Bella said.
"Bye. Don't be long." Sylvester said.
Bella joins her mother and they both leave.
"Ha ha ha. Young love." I said.
Sylvester smiled.
Sylvester POV
I could almost taste it. My victory is close.
Just one more thing is needed to complete my plans, and that is a business partnership.
"What do you think about the date I picked?" Mr Adams asked.
"It's simply divine. You picked right." I replied.
"Oh, great that you think so. I was thinking that I might have chosen to soon, you know? The two of you only just got to know each other." He said.
"Oh, not at all Mr Adams. It's the perfect date." I replied.
"Okay. Thank you." He said.
"I've been thinking about something lately and I've made my decision." I said.
"What is it about?" He asked.
"I'm thinking of forming a business partnership with you." I said.
"I don't think I need a partnership, my company is very successful on it's own." He replied.
"I'm not doing it for the growth of our companies, although that is necessary. My real reason is for us to be more tied to each other. To be in a closer to each other as father in-law and son in-law." I explained.
Mr Adams gave it a second thought and then stayed silent for some time.
"I will think about it. As for giving an answer now, I'm not quite sure." He said.
"It's okay sir. You can take your time." I said.
"Can you tell me more about yourself?" He asked.
"Of course. Um, I'm a billionaire as you already know. I own multiple companies around the continent. And I'm also someone who takes my work seriously." I explained.
"That's a good reputation you have right there" he said.
"Thank you sir." I replied.
"Except for one thing." He said.
"What might that be sir?" I asked.
"You still haven't answered my question." He said.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"I asked about you, not your business or companies." He said.
What am I supposed to say about my family that you don't already know?
You ruined my life. You took away the only person who I had left in this world.
And here you are, asking me about myself.
I have been nobody for as long as I can remember. You made me nobody.
The only thing I have now is my riches.
Aside that, nothing else.
The same way you have ruined my life, I will ruin yours as well.
"The only thing I have is my wealth and riches sir." I said.
"Don't you have parents?" I asked.
"I don't. I'm orphan." I said.
"What?" He asked.
