"Good day, Mr. Dominic".
"Is your boss in the room, Rea?".
"Mr Matteo is still meeting. But at the moment Mr. Austin is in Mr. Matteo's room", replied Rea.
"All right, I'll just wait with Austin".
"Okay sir", replied Rea smiling.
Chequek...
Austin is busy with his iPad, making a video connection with his assistant at his Manhattan company. Upon seeing Dominic's presence he immediately severed the connection with his assistant.
Soon Matteo arrives with Evans. Seeing that his two best friends were in his room, Matteo ordered Evans to bring the finished file in check and sign it out.
"What are you doing in my room?", asked Matteo to sit his body in front of his two friends.
"I'll give you the good news, the prisoner's suspension your ex-wife filed with the judge. Angelica will serve her sentence according to the court's ruling. Because he was shown to be persecuting Sophia on a planned basis" Dominic explained.
"I didn't think Angelica was that bad. If she delays getting pregnant for work reasons, she may still be able to tolerate it. But he lied to you with a broken uterus, that's outrageous. Plus doing persecution on someone can not be considered trivial. It is fortunate that you soon found a replacement for the woman Matte" Austin said, sipping his drink.
"Yes. I am grateful to have found my wife now. Renata was not only good to me but she loved the fetus she contained even though the seed was not from her. I'm so happy friend", replied Matteo.
"If there was just one more woman like your wife, maybe I would have proposed to her right now" Austin replied, leaning his back.
"Renata is the only one in the world, Austin. And it's mine".
"I knew. I mean, like your wife, I'd immediately propose to her. You know I'm very disappointed in my parents. My father who did not prevent my mother when he took me away from home because he had another woman, very disappointed me. My disappointment grew - so when my mother left me for her father, while she became an irresponsible woman by running away from being a drinker", austin complained to his two best friends Matteo and Dominic.
This is not the first time Austin has complained to Matteo and Dominic. Both of his friends knew about the Austin family.
"Dominic's right Austin. It's time you came back and took your due. Take it easy I'll help you face your unknowing stepbrother. How many times have my company and your father's company led by Connors faced off, competed in the job and in the end I won the high-numbered tender" said Matteo.
Austin seemed to be thinking, he digested Matteo's words. To be honest, it was not difficult for him to run his father's company. Because in Manhattan since college he was educated by his grandfather to become a leader of the company. Austin was used to being the leader of a grandfather company next to his mother who worked in construction to software and agriculture.
"Yes, you are right. Looks like I have to act. It's time for me to take what's owned by someone else. This time I won't let it go", Austin insisted with certainty.

"Austin's? are you this, son?". Said the middle-aged man who was tightly hugging Austin's body.
"Yes uncle Marco. I went back to Toronto", Austin answered to the man he called uncle.
Marco is Dunan's best friend and confidant. He knows Austin and Gabby. When Gabby leaves with Austin and Kimberly to leave Toronto and return to America, Marco drives the trio. Gabby took ten-year-old Austin. Kimberly was five years old.
A few years later, Dunan orders Marco to pick up Austin and Kimberly, but Austin refuses. Kimberly was willing to return to Toronto when she was in college. Austin preferred to remain with his grandfather especially after his mother died of illness. His grandfather soon followed Gabby's departure. The grandfather gave all his wealth to Austin and Kimberly. The company was further advanced under Austin's leadership.
"Let's go see your papa, son. Dunan will be happy to see you step back on your feet to this company" Marco said, patting Austin on the shoulder.
On the one hand, someone noticed the movements of Marco and Austin. "I have to tell Mr Connors right now!!"

"Finally you made the right decision, Austin", Dunan said upon seeing his son's arrival with Marco in his room.
Austin was still standing in his place even though Marco asked him to sit down. "Thank you uncle. I won't be long. I just want to negotiate with this guy..."
