Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

Chapter 180 Ivanovs Identity

180 Ivanov's Identity

Calvin watch as Francisco's men drove Veronica back to the city from his study room. Francisco enters the room and pour himself a whiskey.

"You know well that I have Vanessa now. So, are you still going to be stubborn?" Francisco asked.

Calvin smirked. If Francisco was a criminal minded. Well, he's a criminal mastermind. He can be a high functioning sociopath also.

"You believe that once you have her, you could control me."

"Yes. I can kill her anytime." Francisco said. Calvin laugh out loud.

"You are still na?ve… Francisco. If you kill her, her fortune would be put in other charities. She signed it after her eighteenth birthday." Calvin laugh out loud. His strength is back. He could now stand on his own. Soon, he has to exercise and recover from his own depression. His precious granddaughter is back.

Francisco grip on the glass that he's holding.

"You don't truly have my neck on your hands, you bastard. I am the King of an assassin organization. You poison me, you have millions of assassins to run after you and have your head in a platter."

No matter what he can't still win over Calvin though he had gain wealth and more. But he can't still compare to Calvin's army of assassins. Calvin still don't know that he kill his daughter. If he did—he should be dead and rotting by now.

"So don't you dare threaten me with the safety of my own granddaughter Francisco. Though you have men with you—you can't still compare to me or even EPUA." He smirk as he held tightly the pendant of his daughter.

Calvin was notified that his dear daughter Guinevere has been shot through her skull. He thought that only Vanessa knows on what happened so he search for her but unluckily, she's nowhere to be found. Then he should be healthy to protect his granddaughter no matter how Francisco threaten him of Vanessa's safety. Once that Francisco killed or do anything to Vanessa, his assassin's will come and hunt him down.

"Don't you think that I could rule your empire, Father?" Francisco asked.

"Do not call me father. Though my daughter was crazy over you back then and you manipulated her—I would never give you my empire. I wasn't impressed on your facilities at all." Calvin laugh. "You have been raid by the police. Those small laboratories of yours was a big loss. Don't you think? No matter how small they are… they give you big income but you just loss that income."

"I gain more income than you think, old man. I win Lawson and soon Vanessa is getting married to Tony Lawson. Did you know that he bought a bubble tea shop just for her? Only one word from Vanessa and Tony would give his all." Francisco grins trying to glam the old man.

Calvin could give more than that to his granddaughter so he wasn't impressed until he met the man.

"Do you think that Lawson will be fooled by you? I know my granddaughter." Calvin smirk. Vanessa has Ivanov blood through her veins and killing is just a small thing to them. Vanessa isn't easily to be fooled though she don't have her memories. "You don't even know your own daughter Francisco." Calvin smirk.

Francisco was gritting his teeth. He left the mansion and went directly to his own house. He call Sylvia and told her to strip her clothes. Sylvia submissively follow his orders and he grab her hair and fck her hard and viciously until he was satisfied. He was so angry at the old man who fooled him. For Sylvia she love the pain that he's giving.

"You wouldn't disregard me now that your daughter is here right?"

Francisco glower at her. Sylvia was useful, beside of she's good at seducing men and taking care of business matters, he like how submissive she was in bed. She can also fight.

"Why would I disregard you?" He asked and he sign her to come closer. She did and purr him like a cat. He caress her face and scoop her chin. "You are too useful for me and I don't disregard who are useful on my plans." He pushes his face on his manhood and demand her on what to do.

Veronica wasn't in good mood as she pick up Tony. He already notice it so he remain quiet and drove the car instead. Once that they are already in the penthouse, Tony remove his suit and walk toward her in the kitchen. She's ready to prepare their dinner but she look so quiet and something was bothering her.

Tony pull her out from the counter for her to face him and he spread his arms. Veronica drop her monotonous face and she wrapped her arms around him and shove his face on his massive chest.

"Tell me names. Tell me who bully you and I'll make them pay tenfold." He murmur. Veronica feel bad for leaving her grandfather. No one bullies her but someone killed her mother and hurt her. Veronica remain quiet as she weep into Tony's chest. She never weep in front of anyone like this.

Tony hug her tightly and kisses her top head they remain standing and hugging each other. He keep caressing her hair until she's done crying. Tony bath her first and put her something warm since the whole penthouse has AC above the ceiling. He put her on the barstool and give her something to drink as he cook a quick pasta for both of them.

This is how Tony doted her. It was rare for her to see her down and crying. So he wanted to give his very best to comfort her. He feed her after.

"Are you going to give me names now?" He asked as he caress her hair. She shook her head. "Okay. Uhh, was this related to work?"

"Half of it." She mutter.

"Okay. So when are you going to tell me about it all?"

She look at him with tired eyes. He patted her.

"Okay brush your teeth so we can sleep."

Veronica feel sticky and sweaty. She woke up in the middle of the night. The emergency light was on and the whole room was so hot. She pushes the duvet and look at her chest all wet. There's no electricity in the damn building?! She shook Tony who has full of sweats and naked.

"Hey, what the hell is wrong with your penthouse?" She asked her.

"What?" He murmur.

"Let's go to my unit, now!" she demands and reach her phone. She went to the bathroom and he follow. She search for emergency flash lights and good thing that he has it all. He told him to stand and focus on the flash light on her as she take a quick shower. Tony was watching her with a high intensity and didn't even interupt her.

She wrapped the towel around her body and he reach her waist. She pushes him a little.

"Dress up we are leaving this damned penthouse of yours!" She scowl at him. He was also curious on why the electricity shut down so he call on the emergency telephone. It said that the transformer exploded and it will take long until they put back the electricity.

There are emergency lights around the penthouse and even outside. Veronica dress into shorts and sleeveless. Tony wore shorts and thin shirts with a duffel bag on his shoulder holding Veronica's hand as they strode down the stairs from 18th floor.

Few people living in the same building are also leaving with their overnight bags. Tony open the sports car for her and she get in. He turn on the car immediately and she focus the other air conditioner to her as she wipe the sweat between her chests. Tony was turned on so he pull her.

"What?" She frown at her. "I don't want to drive."

"You aren't." He kiss her mouth and she kiss him back. "You are going to grind on me…" He mutter sexily. Veronica feel hot than before. She didn't think twice of removing her shorts and panties. "I miss you V."

While they are making love, Veronica had thought something. If they didn't leave the penthouse, they might be already dead. Francisco is now threatening Calvin of her safety.
