Chapter 151 - CHAPTER 148

"Enrique, that's enough" said Isaiah.

Enrique looked one last time at Ermanno and walked away and sat down on the couch.

Zeke glared at Elisio and Elisio asked "why are you looking at me like that? You think I am wrong?"

"I am just wondering why you think we are so incompetent" said Zeke.

Elisio had wide eyes listening to his father and said "dad why would you say something like that?"

"Well if I am wrong then why do you feel you are the only one who has to take each and everyone of our responsibilities. You are the chairman of all the Devonte group of companies. You control the company but you have no right to control anyone's life. If we are in threat, don't you think we deserve to know about it?" Said Zeke with full anger.

Zeke was never a person who showed anger.

"Dad, I thought I would... " Started Elisio but was cut off by Zeke who said "you would control us. We are not Sabrina."

Elisio was hurt and Zeke knew that.

Zeke moved towards his son and placed his hand on his shoulder and said "I know you like control but you have to let us in Elisio. We are a family. What's the point of having a close family when you are the only one carrying the burden on your shoulders. Share it with us."

"I am sorry dad. I thought I could do it myself." Said Elisio looking down.

Isaiah got up from his place and stood next to Elisio and said "we all know you can. You always have. But our kids need to take up their responsibilities. The more we try to control them, they will fight back." 

Elisio looked at Ermanno and said "would you have allowed more security around you and the kids?" 

"Ofcourse not dad. I would have loved to see all of us dead" said Ermanno sarcastically.

"Just f.u.c.k.i.n.g answer the question" said Enrique.

"What's up your ass today?" Asked EJ.

Enrique and Julius looked at eachother and Nevio said "spill it you both"

"We caught a guy stealing the codes of Ermanno's computer. When we asked him what was the need. He said he was offered a huge amount to install the smart computer in a home." said Julius.

"I don't understand?" Said Isaiah.

"He said he was installing the computer for a guy who wanted to control the whole house from one place. And as the system is untraceable and can't be hacked, he wanted to contact the outside world without being traced or hacked by staying inside the house" said Julius.

"Is he a terrorist?" Asked Arlo.

"No idea. We caught the janitor who was trying to get to the computer" said Enrique.

"If they are using the codes from the master computer from the head office it can be easily traced and I don't think they can build shit from just some codes" said Ermanno.

"He didn't get to far. The detectives are investigating and we have contacted Brad and he said no damages were done to the master computer and the janitor didn't steal much. And guess what? the janitor was a hacker who was specially assigned to do this job. Someone desperately wanted the computer installed in their home." said Julius.

Everyone were thinking about what was happening and then Arlo said "do you think it's Harry? I mean he did go to the same college with you and didn't he do tech engineering?"

"How do you know this?" Asked Nevio.

"He always would be following Ermanno and would visit the club. He often tried to copy what Ermanno wore or do. He just caught my attention" said Arlo.

"How long back did he escape?" Asked Ermanno.

"Few weeks back." Said Elisio.

"I really would have appreciated if you had told me this" said Ermanno.

"You both need to sit down and talk to eachother" said Zeke and both Ermanno and Elisio nodded.

After Sabrina sent Strawberry to her room she was walking back down stairs when she spotted Rose standing outside her and Ermanno's room.

"What's wrong? Why haven't you slept? Do you want something?" Asked Sabrina.

Rose smiled and awkwardly said  "would you tuck me in too?"

Sabrina laughed and agreed and Rose jumped up in excitement. when Rose got into bed after changing into one of Ermanno's t-shirt she placed her head in Sabrina's lap and said "I missed you mummy"

"I missed you too. I have a gift for you. I'll give it to you tomorrow" said Sabrina and ran her hand in Rose's hair.

"Mummy, have you forgiven me?" Asked Rose.

"Rose, we humans are told to be practical and behave and think in a certain way but we often fail to do that. Like, in paper I am suppose to hate you. I was disappointed in you for few things but could never hate you. I always had hope you would come back in Ermanno's life. Cause I truly saw true love for eachother in your eyes" said Sabrina.

"I don't want to screw up this time" said Rose.

"Clean your heart with haterade and fill it with only love. Then you will only have to spread love and be happy" said Sabrina.

"You make it sound so easy." Said Rose.

"It's not difficult" said Sabrina and slowly tapped her head.

Rose yawned and nodded and slept.

Sabrina slowly placed Rose's head on the pillow and covered her with the comforter and left the room.

Sabrina thought she should ask Strawberry and Lola if they wanted something before going down.

Sabrina went close to the guest rooms and saw Lola's room's door a bit open. 

Sabrina was about knock when she heard Lola crying and talking to someone on phone.

"no I can't do that. This is such a big mistake. Ermanno is faithful to his wife and a very devoted father. They have a family which I could only dreame of. Which you promised me you will give but all went down the drain. Please I can't do this" cried Lola and after crying for long she stopped and listened to what the person on the other line was saying and said "you promise no one will get hurt?... Okay, I trust you...yes, I love you" and hung the phone.

Sabrina didn't understand how to react to what she heard.

She walked away and went down to see Elisio and Ermanno walking in the mansion.

Sabrina could see that they both had an argument. Sabrina was used to them fighting and knew the after affect on their face. Guilt.

Sabrina smiled at them and both smiled back.

"The kids, Rose and the nannies have eaten dinner and slept. You both change and I'll serve dinner" said Sabrina.

"Mummy I have some work. I will be out" said Ermanno.

"It's so late and aren't you tired?" Asked Sabrina.

"I am okay mummy. Something needs my attention right away. I have to go. But I promise I'll be back as soon as the work is done" said Ermanno.

"Let me come with you" said Elisio and Ermanno nodded.

Sabrina found it strange that they where civilized after an argument.

'that's new' thought Sabrina.

Sabrina served dinner with the help of the maids and all three sat down for dinner.

Sabrina looked at Elisio and Ermanno and both were eating in silence without moving their eyes from the food.

They both were on deep thoughts.

"Is everything okay?" Asked Sabrina.

Both looked up and Elisio said "everything is okay my love"

"You know this is new. It's like you both were wrong this time and you both knew it. And now both of you are being civilized about it. What ever it is I like the after effect. I am so happy my boys are growing up" said Sabrina.

Elisio and Ermanno smiled and said looked at eachother and together said "thank you mummy"

Sabrina busted out laughing and so did Elisio and Ermanno.

After a good dinner Elisio and Ermanno left.

"Don't wait up. Get some sleep, okay?" Said Elisio and kissed Sabrina.

They both left and Sabrina called Joshua.

"What's the matter?" Asked Joshua.

"Would you do something for me?" Asked Sabrina.

Joshua smiled and said "how many times have I told you that you need to tell me what to do and not ask it as a favour"

"You know I don't like to sound demanding. So, please" said Sabrina.

"I give up. Tell me, what's in your mind?" Asked Joshua.

"Could you do a little background check on Lola for me" said Sabrina.

Joshua looked at Sabrina intensely and asked "any particular reason?"

"Not much. It just that she seems to be in pain and is seems like she is forced to do something she doesn't want to. And I may have heard her talk about Ermanno and his happy family. I mean she was only refering to have what he has but still something didn't really settle well in her conversation with someone on the phone." Said Sabrina.

"I'll let you know what I find. But I am sure Alena must have looked into it. I'll just double check." said Joshua and Sabrina smiled at him and thanked him.
