Wild Flower Ch. 10

With a happy smile, Christian drove off. He had no idea why he was happy that night. Maybe it was because of Miguel's foul attitude.

"Welcome back home, boss." The guard said as soon as he opened the gate.

"Thank you." Miguel sighed as he entered through the gate.

Miguel sighed and then entered his compound. He looked all around his place and walked slowly towards the entrance. As soon as he entered the compound, his mind went to Lambert and he somehow got worried with what was going in his life.

"I just hope that you say something today, Lambert." He thought, clenching his fists hard. "I am really running out of patient with you and I am getting pissed."

Miguel shook his head and then entered his house. As soon as he entered, he saw Brian moving from side to side. He was looking really worried and it somehow got to Miguel. Miguel was really tired, sweaty and dirty. He was dying to have a really hot shower.

"Oh! Thank God." Brian gasped and moved towards Miguel as soon as he saw him.

"What's wrong with you?" Miguel asked.

"You have no idea how worried I have been." Brian breathed. "You got me all worried and I thought..."

"Look, Brian I have been really tired today and I just need to take a hot shower and sleep."

"What?" Brian shook his head. He couldn't believe he was hearing that from Miguel. "You just returned from..." He threw his hand. "...whatever place you had gone to. Now can you please tell me where you went for the last..."

"I was busy." Miguel passed Brian and started heading towards the stairs. "I had things to do, really important things?"

"Things that you couldn't even tell me." Brian started following behind. "Do you know how worried I have been since you left, Miguel? Don't you care about me anymore? Dot you care about what I feel anymore."

Hearing what Brian had just said, Miguel took a deep sigh and then made a quick turn. He looked at Brian and smiled at him the best way that he could.

"Brian..." He sighed, holding his hand sweetly. "Please. I didn't mean to make you so worried but I couldn't tell you where I had gone either."

"Why?" He asked loudly. "Don't you think..."

"No! No!" Miguel shook his head. "I know that you care about me so much. I was just really busy and I had things to do. The truth is that I needed to get away for a little while so I had gone away. I am really sorry about this Brian but you shouldn't worry about me."

"Miguel!" Christian sighed. "How do you expect me not to be with everything that has been going on? You know exactly what..."

"I have told you everything about that." He said softly, shaking his head. "This had nothing to do with that." Miguel couldn't tell Brian anything because he didn't know about what he was planning with Lambert or that he had him at his place. He couldn't risk doing that. Besides, he was just protecting Brian.

"Okay." Brian smiled brightly. "Please. Don't make me worried about this."

"I won't do that. Now... I am really tired and I need to rest." He said softly. "Can I go upstairs now?"

Brian smiled brightly. "I thought you were gonna have some food first."

"No! I need a bath." Miguel sighed. "Just have someone send some food to my room."

"Okay. By the way, where is the guard you came with?" Brian asked. "Where are your things?"

"I left them." He said. "My car broke down and the guard couldn't reach me on time so..."

"He couldn't?" Brian gasped. "Then how did you reach this place? Don't tell me you walked all the way to this place?"

"What?" Miguel chuckled, raising his eyebrow. "Of course, you know I can never do that. Christian brought me here."

"What?" Brian smiled brightly, giving Miguel fisheyes. "Christian? Who is Christian? Is he someone that I need to know about, someone special?"

Miguel definitely had no idea why he told Brian about Christian. He shouldn't have even talked about him. Fuck!

"No!" He chuckled nervously. "He is just some guy that gave me a ride."

"And you knew his name?" He folded his arms on his chest, looking right at Miguel. "How is that even possible? This is so not like you? Do you actually like this guy that you..."

"What? I don't know who he is." He sighed. "He is just some troublemaker that has been following me."

"Following you?"

"Look! Brian, I really don't have time to talk about Brian." He sighed. "All that you have to know is that he has just been looking for trouble. But don't worry about him. I will be able to handle him if he continues bothering me."

"Hmm," Brian raised his eyebrows. "Anyway, I won't say anything anymore. I will have the maid bring some food to you in just a jiffy."

"Okay."

Miguel yawned softly and then stretched his arms. He went to his room and as soon as he entered, he went straight to his bed and sat down there, folding his arms. He sat there and just started thinking about something extremely important.

"Hmm, what do I have to do with you Lambert?" He thought, thumping his foot softly on the floor. "It is obvious that you are trying to play smart with me. I know how men like you are. But I will get those names out of you. I just have to think of a way for you to give me those names. That's the only way that I will be able to complete my mission. You are in my territory now and I will do everything to get those names out of you."

Miguel took a deep breath and got up from the bed. He quickly started stripping and afterwards went to have a hot shower to make his body relax and to take some of his troubles and worries away. He knew that a hot shower always had its ways with him.

"Has he been able to say anything?" Miguel asked in a bossy way. "Has he given you anything that could lead me to my next one?"

"I am really sorry, boss." Mark said on the other end of the line. "That man is really something. I have tortured him and he still refuses to reveal anything. It seems he is ready to die without giving us those names."

"Uh huh?" He got up from the chair, moving away from his classy table. "That man is really trying to act smart with me." He gave a soft chuckle. "He is thinking he is ready to play a game with me. But I know exactly what is in his mind."

"What should I do, boss?" Mark asked on the other end of the line. "It seems he won't talk no matter what I do to him. He is really tough."

Miguel gave a teasing chuckle. "He is not as tough as you think he is." He gave a gloomy sigh, looking out the glass of his office building. "I know exactly what is in his little dirty mind. Right now he is thinking that he has an advantage over me." He chuckled sinisterly. "But he will be disappointed with what I can do."

"What should..."

"Continue with your method, Mark." He instructed in a bossy way. "He might just reveal their names and that will be really good because I am getting sick and tired of him and his dirty body." He said harshly, gripping the phone harder. "Torture him and do that as hard as you could." He yelled, knowing that no one would hear him because his office was noise proof.

"I will do everything to get those names out of him."

"Good!" He chuckled. "You are really impressive, Mark. I will find a way for him to talk and reveal those names. He may think he is smart but I am more cunning than he thinks. I shall have those names very soon."

"Okay, boss." Mark said softly. "I will talk to you later."

Miguel chuckled and then cut the call.

"Lambert!" He gave an evil grin. "You really have no idea how evil I can be. But I am gonna show you just how evil I am. You are gonna beg to give me those names." He laughed. "I will make you regret ever messing with me. You are gonna pay for having a taste of me."

Miguel fixed himself up and then went back on his desk to continue with his work. He was putting on a beautiful green shirt which was folded at the sleeves and half way buttoned. His hairless chest was exposed for everyone to see. He was wearing a sexy beautiful designer's blue skinny jean which revealed his sexy curves and his wonderful body. He had blue shoes on his feet. His hair was curled and then plaited into wonderful braids. His eyes were brighter that day and his mood was just changing. He just wanted to be done with Lambert but the guy was proving to be really tough and he hated it so much. He just wanted to be done with it.

As Miguel was busy with his laptop, he heard the phone ringing. He quickly picked it up.

"Hello." He answered softly.

"Sir," It was his assistant. "There is someone here to see you."

"And may I know who that is?" He answered harshly. "I don't wanna be disturbed today, especially by that man that came here the previous day. Who is he?"

"Well! He said it's a surprise, sir." She said softly. "Can I allow him in?"

Miguel rolled his eyes in frustration and said, "Fine, you may tell the person to come inside."

Miguel put the phone down and then continued with his work. In just a few minutes, he heard the door opening. He was somehow suspecting that the person that had come to his office was Christian and he really hated it a lot.

Miguel furiously raised his eyes, ready to shout out at Christian but what he saw there was really surprising. He had expected to see Christian but what he saw there was just someone else. It was a man quite alright but he was completely different.

The man that had come to his office was a tall tan skinned man though not that tall. He had short chocolate brown hair and the sides of his head were shaven. His sense of hair styling was completely amazing and beautiful.

He was putting on a light blue tight designer's shirt which was tucked in a really beautiful, dark grey, shiny designer's trouser. He had beautiful dark shoes that made him look really sexy and wonderful. He had a dark grey vest which was tightly fixed on him. All in all, he was looking really handsome.

He was wearing a gorgeous smile which seemed to be growing brighter and brighter the more Miguel stared into it.

"Surprise!" The man said happily, opening his arms widely. He started walking towards Miguel with a gorgeous smile. "Are you happy I am back?"

Miguel quickly got up and stared at the man.

"Brandon!" He gasped, shaking his head. "What are you doing here?"

Brandon Alvarez was Miguel's very good lawyer and ally. He had been abroad when Miguel came back to St Luis about weeks ago. In fact, he had left him there for something really important. Brandon was actually a really good lawyer and personal friend of Miguel. They had known each other three years ago when Miguel was really depressed, hurt and in terrible life situations. Brandon had helped Miguel with a new identity, new phase in life and he also knew everything about Miguel because he was there throughout that whole process. In fact, Brandon had helped Miguel with the expansion of his company. They had done a lot of things together. Brandon was actually a little corrupt which helped Miguel in some way.

"Why?" Brandon chuckled. "Are you not happy that I am back?"

"That still doesn't answer my question, Brandon." He said harshly, giving him nothing but angry eyes. "What are you doing back in St Luis? I thought I had left you there for something really..."

"What do you think?" He chuckled satisfyingly. He was acting as if he'd just achieved something really wonderful. "Have I ever failed you before?"

"What do you mean?" He shrugged. "Can you go straight to the point and..."

"It's done, Miguel." He said in his deep manly voice, slipping his hand through his pocket. "Everything is done and..."

Miguel gasped as his eyes widened. "Are you trying to tell me that..."

"The company is now yours." Brandon said happily. "You are now the owner of the multibillion multinational companies."

"Oh my God," Miguel chuckled happily. "For a moment I thought that..."

"Why wouldn't it?" Brandon asked. "You are really now more powerful, richer and more influential. The multinational company is yours."

Just like that, Miguel's companies had just doubled. That meant a lot of things. He had just taken over a huge multinational company that dealt in a variety of goods. One of its branches was in St Luis and Miguel was just too happy with the takeover. It was gonna help out positively with the rest of his plans. He was simply rich.

"This is great news." An evil grin appeared on his face. "I knew I could trust you with this task. Thank you so much, Brandon. You are simply a great friend and lawyer. Thank you so much, Brandon."

Miguel couldn't explain the happiness that he felt at that particular time. It was as if he had just entered heaven. It was as if heaven had just come down on earth. He felt really happy. Now he was sure that by taking over the company, he was gonna be really rich, powerful and influential. That was what he always wanted. He had finally gotten it.

"So are we gonna celebrate or what?" Brandon asked. "What do you say about you and me going out there and then..."

"No!" Miguel lost the smile on his face, sitting down on the chair. "I am really busy man and don't have time for celebrating, Brandon."

"What? But..."

"I will not be going out with you so you better leave?"

"What?" Brandon lost the smile on his face. He couldn't believe what he was actually hearing from Miguel. "You just took over a really huge company and..."

"So what?" He shrugged, looking at his lawyer. "What difference does it make?"

"Are you serious?" Brandon leaned down on the table, looking right at Miguel's sexy body. It was obvious the guy was drooling over that sexy body. He couldn't even hide it because Miguel was a sex symbol. He was just too hot.

"You just took over..."

"I know I just did." Miguel shrugged, shaking his head. "This is just like any other company that I have with me so why..."

"Come on." Brandon chuckled nervously, looking deep in Miguel's eyes. "We can do a little celebration in this office, can't we?"

Miguel looked carefully at Brandon and just laughed teasingly. He then got up and moved away from his table. He went and stood right in front of the sexy lawyer, seductively close. It might have probably been too much for Brandon because his breaths instantly turned sensual. He was simply turned on. Only God knows the thoughts that were deep in his mind.

"You wanna celebrate?" Miguel asked, rubbing on his temple.

"Yes! I am dying to celebrate." Brandon thought it was a great opportunity for him to be with Miguel.

"Then I suggest you go and celebrate with your wife." He said harshly, backing off from Brandon. "I am sure she is dying to celebrate with you."

Brandon lost the smile on his face and somehow got offended. "Why are you doing this to me, Miguel?" He tried to control his breaths.

"Why?" Miguel dropped his hand seductively to his hips. "Aren't you glad I am doing you a favor here?"

"What favor?" Brandon sighed.

"What do you mean?" He shrugged. "I just told you to go and celebrate with your wife. What could be more beautiful than that?"

"I don't wanna celebrate with her."

"Good!" He said harshly, dropping his hands furiously. Then he started cat walking towards his chair. "I don't wanna celebrate with you just as much as you don't wanna celebrate with me." He sat back on the chair. "Now why don't you leave me alone because I have a lot of things to do? I am sure you are pretty tired too."

"Yeah, I..."

"Good! Go and see your wife and your son." He instructed, pointing at Brandon. "I am sure that they are dying to see you."

"But..."

"Come on." He smiled. "I will see you later, okay? You and I still have things to do. I will call you when I need you. Thank you."

Brandon gave Miguel a look of disappointment and then left the office looking as if he was really angry. In fact, he was angry especially with the way that Miguel had told him to go away. It was just rude and he didn't appreciate it at all.

"Whatever." Miguel sighed.

He took out his pen and then started signing some documents. Had it been three years ago he'd have surely celebrated but now he had no time for that. He was a really busy man who needed to concentrate on what he was doing and less on celebrating his success.

***

Miguel arrived at his house and boy was he tired with everything that he had just done that particular day. He had spent the entire day at his office and thinking about all the plans. He was still thinking about them and even though he had gotten some ideas about how he was gonna make Lambert talk, he knew what he needed was a master plan.

"Okay, Tania, just do exactly as I have ordered you to do." Miguel commanded. "I want you to tell everyone everything I said tomorrow in case I don't come there at all."

"Why, sir?" Tania said on the other end of the line. "Are you feeling sick or something?"

"No! I am not sick. I might not just come there for personal reasons." He said. "I know you can handle what I told you because I know you are bright.'

"Thank you so much, sir." She said happily. Miguel could actually hear her happiness on the phone. "That really means a lot to me."

"Okay. If there are any documents to sign tomorrow or any legal issues then don't forget to send them to my house. I will make sure that they are signed." Miguel still didn't trust anyone with his money, especially employees. "I will talk to you later."

"Thank you."

When Miguel cut the call with his assistant, Brian was standing right in front of him with a bright smile on his face. Miguel had no idea what that smile meant. He couldn't guess what might have been making Brian that happy.

"Okay." He said as if he was not sure of what he was about to say. "Why are you smiling and why are you this happy?"

"What?" Brian chuckled nervously. "I am happy because I am seeing you today."

"What?" He looked behind to see if Brian was actually talking to him. "Me?"

"Of course," He said with a sigh. "I am glad you are back. Are you tired?"

Miguel smiled faintly. "No! I am already used to my work. I am not really that tired. What's up with you?" He frowned as he started heading to the living room.

He went to the living and sat on the couch. Brian came quickly and sat with him. "So... did that guy bother you again, today?"

"What? Who?"

"I don't know." He breathed in deeply. "I am talking about the man that dropped you off yesterday. Did you have an encounter with him too?"

"Oh my God," Miguel rolled his eyes, chuckling softly. "Brian! Please!"

"What did I say?" Brian looked at him with fisheyes. "I think he likes you or something, don't you think?"

Miguel lost the smile on his face as soon as he heard that. "I think he is just a troublemaker who needs to be taught a lesson." Miguel said softly. "I am sure he won't be coming back because I will make him regret it if he dares mess with me. He has no idea what I can do."

"Oh! Come on." Brian sighed. "Give the guy a break. But come to think of it, what do you think about him?"

"Meaning?" Miguel frowned, raising his eyebrows.

"Do you like him?"

"What?" He furiously got up. "No! Why would I get involved with a man?" He sighed. "I am not interested in any man and you know that."

"I know that but don't you think you need someone..."

"I have you." Miguel sighed. "I don't need anyone else apart from you, Brian. We may not share that kind of relationship but you are important in my life." He gave a gloomy sigh, smiling at Brian. "He is just someone that has been troubling me. I am sure he is even gone."

Brian knew that Miguel was probably buried in so much pain. But he knew that the love of a man could take some of that pain away. He just wished a man like that would come in Miguel's life one day and give him all the love in this world.

"Okay."

"By the way," Miguel smiled brightly. "Brandon came back today and guess what?"

"What?" Brian smiled brightly.

Miguel chuckled happily. "I have finally been able to get my hands on Liberty Blue royal group of Cl." He smiled. "It is now my company and I am just so happy right now."
