Tales Of Love

Chapter 43



CEO Eve saw the news and immediately tried to call his daughter. Her line was switched off. He left the company and came home. He was greatly displeased with Santiago’s actions.

When he got home, his wife was also stepping out of her car. They both walked in without saying a word to each other.

Eve Diego was still in her room when she heard her mother yelling at her to open the door. She seems agitated with the way she was banging the door.

Eve Diego opened the door. But before she could say jack, her parents passed by her and went inside the room. She followed them and closed the door behind her.

“Today, you have brought Diego’s family to shame. Your actions today will have a devastating effect on the Diego family and businesses” CEO Caden’s voice was hoarse. He was giving out vibes of anger.

“I don’t understand what you are saying dad,” Eve Diego was looking lost. What was her father saying? No one besides the chauffeur knew she was at the Axel group . Only she knew how humiliated she was that day?

“What is there that you don’t understand? Where were you earlier? Have you not seen the news on the Internet? Didn’t you listen to what that arrogant brat said?” CEO Caden’s questions came in sequence that Eve Diego doesn’t know which to answer first.

Her father brought out his cellphone and showed Eve Diego the news. When she saw and read it, she shivered. When were her photos taken? So much dirt to her name. But what Santiago said was a bombshell.

Santiago had publicly broken every ties with Eve. They were never going to partner in business anymore. As for any relationship he had with the young Miss, he ended it that day. If ever she was found parading herself as his fiancee again, he would sue her for defamation.

The video of her conversation with the security and her words with Mrs Rodrigo were attached.

Eve Diego couldn’t raise her head to look her father in the face. She turned her back to him as her facial complexion became red.

“You can’t just blame our dear Eve for President Axel’s actions, Eve is still our daughter and we have to stand in her Support” Tola Diego was trying to coax her husband.

She also listened to Eve Diego’s arrogant words in the recording and knew she was wrong. Santiago Axel had not been officially engaged to her so she has no right whatsoever to be arrogant or threaten others. But she was her daughter, a daughter of the Diego family.

“You don’t get it, do you? The Axel group is a big company and if it refuses to do business with us, we’ll not only lose our most important partner but Suffer the fall of our shares” CEO Caden tried to explain further.

Tola and Eve might not be so familiar with business and clients but he does.

They’re only seeing the Superficial but he was seeing the backbone of the company getting feeble.

He had insisted on his daughter to get married to Santiago not because his father and Santiago’s grandfather had promised each other even when he knew that Santiago did not like his daughter. But, he was doing it to strengthen their partnership and make the Eve group rise rapidly.

“We need to act fast to show the Axel family we are not people to mess around with. After all, your father once rescued their business” Tola Diego said. She was going to shift the blame off her daughter in any way she could.

Grandpa Axel was furious about Santiago’s actions. This boy was going to make him an irresponsible old man. A man should be responsible for his actions and words. But Santiago has shamed him publicly.

He picked his phone and called him “come over immediately” without giving Santiago a chance to say anything, he hung up.

Santiago, who was seated in his office, gave a smirk. He was actually expecting the call. He knew his grandfather was going to call him to come over.

He stood up and walked out. He was going to meet his grandfather and settle this once and for all. That way, it would be better for them both.

Palmer was pleading with her father in-law to calm down. Santiago probably did what he did because of the actions of the young Miss. She shouldn’t have gone to the Axel group in the first place without being invited. She was giving herself cheap publicity.

But Palmer was afraid that her father in law was going to remove Santiago from the position of the President. That’s what she’s afraid of the most.

His Uncle and his Son were eyeing that position already and will be happy if anything happens and Santiago was removed. In fact, they will throw a party to that effect.

Soon, Santiago arrived. Palmer went to open the door and whispered to him to be remorseful before his grandfather. But Santiago simply pretended not to hear his mother.

“You called me grandfather” Santiago said as he came before his grandfather. He sat down opposite him and placed one leg on the other.

“What nonsense do you think you’re doing?” grandfather Axel asked. He was furious, as his old hands started shivering.

When Santiago said nothing, the old man continued “you now take decisions about the company without consulting me first right?

You think you can turn me to an irresponsible old man by publicly refusing the girl from the Diego family? Look, you have no choice but to go back and make another public announcement of your engagement to her if you want to remain the President of the Axel group”All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Palmer was feeling restless. Her fears were almost becoming a reality. Santiago’s grandfather just threatened him with the position of the President. Santiago doesn’t like being threatened. She knew this a long time ago about her Son.

Santiago’s expression became fierce. He looked sullen. His grandfather was actually threatening him with the position of the President of the Axel group? He doesn’t like being threatened.

“I will not do that, grandfather. I will arrange all the documents in my possession and hand them over to you tomorrow morning” Santiago said and stood up. He bowed slightly and walked towards the door.

He was never going to do such a silly thing as getting entangled with Eve Diego again. His heart still beats for Aurora and it will continue beating until his last breath.

As he was about to reach the door, it opened and the Diego’s came face to face with him.
