Andrei remembered when he was first transferred to a new city.
His mind had become more calm right now, and he could think straight. But his heat was still crooked.
He was indignant to fall like this, and he wasn’t willing to stay in the same place like now. Andrei needed to do something. He wanted to get back at that man.
He was in a fancy restaurant, and was sitting by the counter drinking wine. Just at this moment, he heard a commotion by the door. He turned back and saw a procession of what it seems wealthy business men crowding together.
He furrowed his brows and called for a waiter. “What’s going on over there?” He asked the waiter. The waiter on the other hand, answered him politely.
“Sir, Sir Rodrigo Roberts just arrived.” He responded simply, like that answer summarizes it all. Andrei raised a brow as he gazed at the man surrounded by the crowd.
At that moment, his mind started turning. A plan formulated on his head and his eyes flashed. He then ordered another glass of wine and walked towards the crowd holding the wine glasses. Andrei was an eye catching man, and when he walked, he stole attention. He was also dressed elegantly and there was an aura of richness in him. He certainly didn’t look like an ordinary man. When he passed by, the business men made way for him until he arrived in front of Rodrigo Roberts. He passed him a drink smoothly and said with a professional voice.
“Care for a drink?”
Rodrigo Roberts looked at him and raised a brow. The people fawning over him were no less, but he can’t deny this man was pleasing to the eyes.
Surrounded by old and round bellied business men, Andrei looked like a gem shining amongst them.
So Rodrigo received the drink and sipped on it while looking at Andrei. ‘Let’s see how you impress me.’
This was what Rodrigo was thinking, as he wants to test this young man. Andrei could clearly read his expression and he flashed a dazzling smile. The two people stared at each other with battling thoughts in their mind.
However, Andrei didn’t expect that this alpha male boss has more interest in him than he expected.

Inside the hotel room, clothes scattered on the floor. In the bed, sheets were entangled as if a fierce battle had just commenced. Two figures lay in an obscene position, and the smell of sex was in the air.
Rodrigo had a satisfied satisfaction on his face, as he smoked his cigarette and looked at the naked man beside him.
Andrei was still trembling but he laid upfront not showing defeat. He didn’t expect that this boss had a peculiar taste.
That is taste in men.
But for Andrei’s predicament, he felt he could accept anything as of the moment. If it means this man would support him.
“Tell me what you want.” Rodrigo said to him.
Rodrigo Roberts was a multi-million businessman. He was not easily swayed by people. But Andrei was an eye catching man, and when he tested him, he was also knowledgeable about business. He was not just a pretty face.
In addition, he had satisfied him very much in bed.
However, all of this summing up, he knew he had a reason why he approached him. but no matter what it is, because he satisfied Rodrigo, he would give it to him.
Andrei heard Rodrigo’s question and he sneered in his heart.
He was a very arrogant and conceited man. And doing this now, it was very different from him. But Andrei doesn’t care anymore. He was very determined to get back at that man, and he was willing to do anything.
His eyes flashed as he responded in a steady and low voice. “I want to take the Castellanos down.”
.

Veronica listened to Andrei as he narrated the partnership he created with Rodrigo Roberts. And not just a normal partnership, but also intimately.
“Rodrigo Roberts had always wanted to beat the Castellanos. So he is more than willing to cooperate with me.” Andrei added as he nonchalantly leaned back on his chair. As if what he did was nothing.
Veronica stared incredulously and disgustingly at Andrei.
“All the business aspect was so so, but..” She said with a sarcastic amazement as she leaned forward with her elbows resting at the table. She stared amusedly and gapingly at Andrei. “You’re telling me you hooked up with a fifty years old man?” She mocked him.
She can’t take Andrei seriously as this aspect of the news hit her.
Rodrigo Roberts was big personage, but that also means it was years of work. And now, she was nothing but an old, widowed, and rich man.
Veronica chuckled disgustingly. Andrei doing such a thing, it was a laughing stock. He was really a pathetic lowly man. No wonder he was related to that slut, Anya.
Andrei and Anya, they do make a match!
“So admiring. You’re very.. dedicated and self-sacrificing. Becoming a boytoy, I have no words.” Veronica added mockingly as she gave a head to toe look at Andrei.
Andrei saw all of this, but he only smiled. He didn’t back down as he sipped on his glass lightly. “Can you really say that now?” He mocked her too as he placed his glass on the table, the clinking sound piercing their ears.
He raised his eyes towards Veronica, and looked at her just as sarcastically.
“Your company is in the verge of bankruptcy. By the time your company collapse, it will be hard to say, you, Miss Veronica Ambrosia, can marry a rich man.” He dropped the words like a bomb. This made Veronica’s face change dramatically. Her expression turned ugly as she glared at him.
Andrei smiled once again, satisfied at the ugly expression of the woman.
“We don’t know, next time I receive wind of you, you’re also marrying a dirty old hag of a business man.” He chuckled as he stared teasingly at her.
Veronica gritted her teeth as she looked angrily at Andrei.
But in her heart, she was also very anxious. Her family’s company was in a crisis, and she was also about to be sued. What would her life turn out?
Andrei read Veronica’s expression and add fuel to the flames.
“You know, Damon Castellano wouldn’t let go of you anyway. I hope you know that by now, or are you still delusional?” He said to her mercilessly.
“Without the Ambrosia company, I can still find other companies to deal with the Castellanos. It is in fact, me, who is doing you a favor.” Andrei added as he stared arrogantly at Veronica.
Veronica froze in her seat, as she was at a lost for words. She dreaded that she was in such a position that she needed to cooperate with such a disgusting man as Andrei.
But it was true, it seems she doesn’t have a choice.
“Your company is on the edge and it will fall anyway. So you could only choose. Cooperate with me, or let your company fall into ruins.”
The devil gave his words as he stared at the soul in front of him. His voice held darkness with a ruthless glint in his eyes.
