One Year to Part: Passion and Deception
Chapter 43

Chapter 43:.

Thirty minutes later Nadia entered the office of the President of the Moretti Group, Hugo was standing in front of the large window with his eyes fixed to the sky and his mind lost in thought, he was holding a cigarette in his right hand and every now and then he took a puff of smoke, his tall figure and powerful aura gave him a solemn look, he turned towards the door when he heard Nadia enter.

“Tell me you have me” was her only greeting.

“Mistress Sara has already found Chef.”

“Seriously” I arched an eyebrow “Who is he, what cooking school did he graduate from, is he famous?”

“He’s no one famous or popular, just a simple assistant to another Chef, he cooks well, but we tasted other better meals. The lady accepted her because she says his food tastes like home and reminds her of hers.”

Hugo kept silent, until now he had not thought about his wife’s family, there was nothing, no records or anything of her life before she married him, this had his grandfather’s stamp all over it, but Hugo did not understand what Sara and his grandfather were trying to hide.

“He said something else about his family.”

“No sir, the lady is very secretive.”

“Well, that’s not important now,” he was silent for a few seconds “I wonder how she plans to succeed with a mediocre and inexperienced Chef. What else is she planning?”

“She sent me to look for a place to put the restaurant, I have to look for several options and she will choose the final one.”

“Take her the most expensive ones, which are not profitable for any growing business, or the farthest out of town, you can also give her the ones that need work and remuneration. The idea is that he needs money and the initial budget I gave him is not enough and he has to ask me for more, so when his project fails I will have more things to throw in his face and justify with my grandfather his dismissal.”

“Whatever you order sir.”

“That’s fine, you can retire I’ll expect you next week to report back to me and try to replace out regarding his private life, we know very little about it.”

“Yes sir.”

Nadia said goodbye and left the office to do her work. Hugo sat down and took out his phone and looked at the picture he had taken of Sara that night in front of the bar, from time to time he couldn’t help looking at her and sighing, he had understood that he had feelings for her, but that woman was too stubborn and only wanted to offend him and confront him, Hugo’s dominant character and pride would never allow him to be with a woman like that, so he only had two options: first, he could teach her a lesson and make her learn that he was the one in charge and become a submissive woman, or, second, he would have to forget her and look for another more docile woman.

In either case he would have to win this bet, first he would try to tame her and if it didn’t work, he would try to take her away from him. He was Hugo Moretti and a man of his stature could not have at his side a woman so rebellious that she would insist on embarrassing him.
