Taming A Billionaire

Chapter 336 - Three Hundred And Thirty-seven: No One Can Stop Him

The third point of view:

"What?! What do you mean she's gone?!" Fernandez spat fire at the unlucky man in his office who had arrived to deliver the bad news.

After the successful raid at Cecil's place, he had left first to finish up at the office before heading home to flaunt his trophy, who knew those incompetent fools would ruin his successful plan.

How could they not achieve that simple task? He had done most of the work, all they had to do was to bring them back to his place, and yet, they failed!

"So you're trying to tell me that some men stopped you guys?" Fernandez's dark gaze warned of a brewing storm.

"Yes sir," said the man who had an adhesive bandage on the corner of his neck - which was just one of the many wounds on his body. He was the driver of the van and had suffered most of the impact from the collision.

"We underestimated the woman, it seems she has her own forces," he claimed.

Suddenly, Fernandez remembered that moment Cecil had threatened him about calling for help. What help could that woman possibly have?

Without the backing of her family, she was good as nothing. The Vincent's had disowned her already, what connection could she have? She was nothing but an ordinary fashion designer, compared to him who runs his family's business.

An evil grin stretched Fernandez's lips as he traced the wine glass on his desk - the glass he'd drank from - while the ignorant man stood with his head lowered without perceiving the malevolent aura seeping from the madman. Even if he could, what could he do anyway? Fernandez was his employer.

"So you're telling me that Cecil with no strong backing was strong enough to stop you with her measly guards?!" he hurled the glass directly at the man's face and it shattered to pieces.

Blood trickled from his temple but the man didn't dare to move, they all knew Fernandez had a foul temper - everyone avoided him for that reason. Defending himself while Fernandez speaks would only aggravate the man's anger, so he kept mute and endured the pain.

Fernandez swept everything on his desk to the floor. Yes, that anger! That has always been his problem! He couldn't control that.

"Get out," he said yet the man didn't move a muscle until he bellowed, "Get the hell out of here!"

At first, the man had been too lost in his thoughts to hear Fernandez, until he screamed the second time causing him to scurry out of the office as if the devil were on his heels.

"Damn it!" He loosened the tie on his neck out of frustration. Everything was so damn annoying nor did he think of a time that woman would rebel against him - she used to adore him.

As the story tells, he and Cecil had once been together. However, unlike Cecil who had the dumb imagination of marrying a man who would love her unconditionally, Fernandez had an ulterior motive in agreeing to the marriage.

Vincent's family had just three females with no male heir to inherit the corporation. It was quite obvious that one of the sons-in-law was going to inherit the business afterward. He knew it would be a tough battle considering their husbands too were from equal standing, but Fernandez was confident of winning. He just had to work extra hard and merge both companies in the future - that way, he would tactically take over the company.

Cecil had been young and dumb then, so with a few romantic acts, he wove his way into her heart. He reined in his anger and became the perfect gentleman ladies envisioned in their dreams.

Everything was going according to plans until that bitch ruined it all. Though if he had been calm enough to reason it through, he would have salvaged the situation. However, the thought of that bitch trying to put a pregnancy that obviously wasn't his made his blood boil. His uncontrollable anger took over as usual and before he knew it, had blurted the truth to her family. And knowing how strict Vincent was with his girls, Cecil was chased away.

At first, Fernandez was satisfied with the punishment meted out on her, but when he came to his senses, realized how much he had messed up. But the deed had already been done, there was nothing he could do anymore.

So Fernandez went ahead living his life with the satisfaction that Cecil was somewhere suffering and bearing the stigma of being the Vincent family's black sheep, while he moved his sight to another target and landed a young mistress from an aristocratic family.

Fernandez got what he wanted; the connection and power he wished for; however, disaster struck. It turned out that the only son his wife gave him wasn't his, the bitch had cheated on him during one of his business trips- claimed he couldn't satisfy her.

He couldn't chase his wife away as much as he wanted to, her family was powerful. Moreover, divorcing her would announce to the world the shame she brought upon him. So he endured it all, as well as looking for another way to get a seed. There was no way on earth he would gather all this fortune without his rightful son to carry on his great legacy.

Call it karma or something but Fernandez had two mistresses who gave him a child, yet none turned out to be a son. He wasn't stupid enough to leave all his resources to a female who would marry off while his years of hard work get taken over by the so-called son-in-law.

Hence the man went on a fucking spree; getting into the pants of any willing lady. But then, not all the ladies were able to conceive and the few who did, all turned out to be girls while the only one who was positive with a male son had a miscarriage. In total, the man had six illegitimate daughters and a legitimate son that wasn't biologically related to him.

Fernandez didn't believe in curses nor retribution nor the fact that there was a God out there paying everyone back in their own coins. He was an atheist and everything he has ever done so far was to ensure his survival. The world was a jungle and only the fittest survived.

Over the years he has tried every possible means to get a male child and was already giving up hope when he saw Cecil in the news one day.

Apparently, the eldest son of the famous Spencer family and his cousin got married and she had designed the wedding outfits for both brides - which was the talk of the town. He had forgotten about her and so that interview on the television made him suddenly curious about her life - how was she living fine? But most of all, Fernandez was curious about her love life and the bastard son she had tried to put on him.

He ordered an investigation immediately and there it was revealed to him, the existence of his son all this while. The revelation felt like a huge slap on Fernandez's face, Cecil had been telling the truth? All this while, he has been going crazy about getting a male child when he had one unaccounted for over the years?

Uncontrollable anger surged through him, how dare Cecil put him through this hassle. He wanted his son back that instant! So he headed to her place to take what rightfully belongs to him. For eighteen years, that woman kept his son hidden from him? She has no right!

Fernandez didn't dare go through the law knowing the court would inevitably favor Cecil - the law was always fair to single mothers! Just because they bore the child for nine months? What was so hard about that?

Moreover, Pedro was grown and would undoubtedly take his mother's side, so he had to exert his influence. Once his son was handed back to him, he'd train and give him his rightful place as his heir, as well as breaking that bitch's influence on him. His son would not be weak.

So he audaciously planned to take Pedro by force knowing there was nobody that would come to Cecil's rescue-most of his relatives were involved with the law hence he was protected. Also, he had a lot of connections, even Cecil knew he was not to be trifled with.

At first, Fernandez had planned to take his son only but when he met the fierce Cecil, he had the urge to conquer her too. If he remembered clearly, she had been the most passionate in his bed. He wouldn't mind taking her too and who knows, since she'd given him a son, she might be capable of another.

"Bang!"?Fernandez kicked his swivel chair and punched his desk. All his plans were ruined!

Fine, he wouldn't give up on this battle, neither has he lost any battle in his entire life. Cecil can hide but she can't hide forever. Sooner or later, he would possess her and his son. And nobody can stop him!
