Stay with me

Chapter 26 - Angels and Demons

"Okay, I give up." Tranba raised his hands. - I'm also interested in the success of Sapphire. Therefore, I am glad of such an acquisition. Welcome!

- What kind of sapphire?! Cried Koray and Omer had to stop him with а stern look.

- Koray, not now. This is not the place or the time to talk about it. Tomorrow Sinan will tell you everything.

Koray pouted his lips resentfully but did not dare to object.

"Thank you," after waiting for the strange man to calm down, Laura answered to Tranba. She gracefully bowed her head with dignity and, taking Defne's arm, went with her to the window.

Deniz wanted to hug Iz again by the waist but received a nudge on the side. She looked at him warningly and walked away. Taking a glass of champagne from a tray, she measured her groom with a defiant look and took a long sip.

"Damn it! Deniz thought with a mixture of admiration and anger. "She also said that once a century she's going over alcohol." But today he needs Iz, not her unconscious body. He resolutely approached her, took the champagne, drank it in one gulp, and, returning the glass to the tray, pulled her by the hand. He led her out onto the balcony, pressed her back against the high, marble railing and, hanging over her entire body, demanded an answer:

- Why are you enraged?

- Get mad? She hissed like an angry cat. - What else was missing! It would be because of whom! She jerked, trying to free herself from the firm grip of his hands. - Let me go! Go ahead and make eyes to an old acquaintance.

- What eyes? What friend? Iz, are you crazy? - he shook her shoulders.

"He still asks which one?" The beautiful divorced Countess Laura! Just think - offers her the position of creative director in his company! To her, not to his bride!

- What? - always confident, arrogant Tranba froze with a stupidly open mouth and bulging eyes.

"What you heard," barked Iz.

Deniz shook his head and looked incredulously at the fury that his bride had turned into.

"Do you want to work at Trаnba?" And leave your precious Omer and his Passionis?

- Yes! I want! And you, a donkey thinking slow, didn't even think about calling me to your place. Let me in! She twitched again, but in vain.

Deniz looked at her in silent amazement, and then his face began to change. Lips stretched into a smile, which became wider and grew into a triumphant laugh. He grabbed her above the knees and swirled around the wide balcony.

- Crazy girl! Adore you. - He put her on her feet and pulled to the door. - Let's go let Passionis know that you are leaving them.

- So you agree? - Iz's anger transformed into confusion.

He stopped and clasped her bare shoulders.

- Do you ask? I did not even dare to dream of such a thing.

- That's in vain! She said whimsically and cringed. - Let's go inside. I'm cold.

"I didn't know that you knew Deniz and Sinan," Defne said to Laura.

She wanted to drink, and not just anything, but something sour, and she looked out for waiters offering drinks to the guests.

- With Sinan, we are familiar since the student years. He came to Milan to visit Omer. And Deniz and my ex-husband worked together four years ago, meanwhile, Laura answered.

- Yes, how small the world is.

- No need to say.

The girls exchanged knowing smiles.
