The CEOS Surrogate Stripper

|| Lorenzo's POV ||

" Mr. King!! Please wait a second!"

The reporters screamed, stumbling, pleading to step forward but they failed halfway miserably. My guards surrounded me closely as they guided me in, opening a path for me. The most awaited night was finally here.

" The annual party of King Enterprise!"

Not only the reporters, the entire Humbsblock city waited for this grand event to telecast on television. The King Enterprise had been rulling over the business world for the past three decades. My father, Arnaldo King had built his empire single-handedly and made sure to leave a remarkable footprint in the world of business. Naturally, we were called the number one family in this state. Although, the focus should have fallen on Arnaldo King only but here, I had all the flashlights, sole attention from the media. Because Lorenzo King had his own empire.

After eighteen, I didn't rely on my father's business. Within three years, I had my own business though it wasn't as big as King Enterprise. Still, it had managed to place third in the leading companies of Humbsblock. I was hopeful that in the next few more years, I would be able to turn my own company as big as King Enterprise.

Harlo guided me inside, stopping under the dazzling chandelier that we had for the party tonight. I spotted Luka in the distance who waved back at me, smiling. He left the crowd behind, marching on my way and pulled me into a bear hug,

" Goodness, Nana was so worried. She thought that you won't come. I have been pampering her for hours."

He grumbled lowly and I chuckled lightly at his response. Nana could be real dramatic sometimes. She still refused to believe that she was 90 not 23 anymore. Well, I couldn't argue that much. She still had her beauty and young mind, flourishing every single day perfectly.

I muttered sarcastically, gesturing at a staff member to serve us drinks,

" How can I miss the show, Luka?"

We toasted our drinks together as Luka's eyes followed something in the distance. He spoke while whispering,leaning onto me slowly,

" Do you think that he will announce it tonight?"

I replied, shrugging off as the warm liquor flowed warm in my throat,

" No idea! Everyone is expecting to hear tonight like always but it never happened."

Luka pulled his brows together in concern, gulping his liquid down in shot,

" I guess, he will say something this year as Leonardo is a married man already. The legacy rules should follow."

The name 'Leonardo' made my jaw clenching hard. One single name was enough to remind me how much I wanted this enterprise. My pain, anger, frustration everything were pulled and pried open in a single shot. My teeth sank deeper into my lips and I swallowed hard, looking away furiously.

" Yep, my brother should be a married man too.", a sudden voice travelled from behind. We both snapped our heads together behind to see Leonardo smirking at us.
