My name is Rene Bernard Petit, I am thirty years old, the only son of Marcus Bernard and Yvonne Petit. I have always had everything I wanted, as they say, I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth, and I have things when I want them and how I want them, my parents are the owners of the largest perfume factory in France.
Everything was wonderful in my life, as an only child I was my parents' spoiled child, my admiration was always for my dad, until I turned eighteen, yes, that day my idol fell off the pedestal, Dad, who I always saw loving my mother, having details with her, they were the most envied couple, as they say, the ideal couple, one for the other, but everything changed. One day I went to look for Dad at the hacienda, where they grow jasmine flowers, which are then sent to the factory. Mom was feeling very bad, she told me she had strong pains in her lower abdomen, I did what I could and went to the hacienda and when I arrived, I found Dad with his secretary, the two of them were in the living room having se@@, my world came crashing down, I almost started hitting him, but I remembered two things, one that he is my dad and the other that mom was unwell at home. So I took the flight on the private jet back home, no matter how much Dad wanted to talk to me, I refused, I didn't tell my mother anything.
And so it was, I arrived and Mom was already in the hospital, she had lost the baby, yes, she was pregnant. Every day I blamed Dad, I don't know how Mom found out about his infidelity and everything changed at home, I changed too. I went to study in Germany, I removed what little there was of me on social media, Dad almost always kept me distant from all that and when he failed Mom, I moved further away from the public eye.
Five years ago I married Margot Boyer, our marriage was because one night after drinking we slept together and she got pregnant, but then she had an accident and lost the baby, I don't love her, but I have always tried to please her in everything, I have had affairs, and she has suspected it, she has never seen me with another woman.
After so many years I returned to my homeland, France, things between Dad and Mom changed a lot, she forgave him, after begging my mother for a chance so much. A year ago my father had a heart attack, he was able to be treated in time, and since I almost lost him, I forgave him, now he wants me to take control of the company, I have a modeling agency in Germany, but I want to please Dad and I will take command of everything.
We will meet at the hacienda, just for a few days, it's good for Dad and when we return I will take charge, I will be the new CEO of the company.
"I don't like being in this kind of places. Margot tells me."
"don't start with your things, we came here for my parents, you should have stayed in Paris."
"what for? So that your parents later throw it in my face that I didn't come?"
"then I don't want to hear you say anything, for God's sake, you have everything, I indulge you in everything, you could cooperate."
I see that she makes a sour face, and I ignore her, sometimes Margot gets very heavy.
Today very early I will go to the hacienda, I will help as much as I can, since in the afternoon I will go to the field to harvest.
"tell me what he's like?"
"what is he like? I ask my sister"
"he, your boss."
"Mr. Bernard?"
"no, the son"
"for God's sake, what are those comments, you are too young to be thinking about men."
"little sister, young maybe, but not blind, besides, one day I will get married, I will have children, stop being jealous."
"yes, I know, but while that age arrives, I will take care of you and be jealous. She gives me a smile, I hug her and leave the house."
Dad had a bad night, I heard him complain a lot, I'm worried, I would like to take him to a hospital, they would take good care of him there, but we don't have enough money, with what we have we only cover some medications.
I am arriving at the hacienda, I enter through the kitchen door and start helping the girls, they are preparing a breakfast fit for a battalion.
"Why so much?"
"because the lady wants her son to try everything, if she feeds him like this these days, she will take him rolling to Paris. Says one of the girls."
We all laugh and suddenly we feel the atmosphere become tense, upon hearing a throat clearing, and there we see an imposing man, one who with looking at us gives us the feeling that he wants to kill us, I ignore his face of a badly paid guard and continue with my thing.
"who is in charge of cleaning my room. I smell that this one is already going to bother."
"it's me. I tell him sharply looking him straight in the eye without lowering my head, this one shouldn't think that because he is the owner of everything he is going to come and believe himself to be more."
"I'm telling you, young lady, that you are doing it very badly. And I already feel my blood boiling."
"I have a name, Mr. Bossy, my name is Jazmin, and if you don't like how your room turned out, then I'm sorry, for you. Mr. Wilfred told me that everything was in order so you can go and talk to him."
I see that the man makes a sour face and leaves like a wild beast.
"you are going to get into trouble, he can fire you. The cook tells me and I just shake my head, I think if I passed a little, I remember Dad and that I need this job and if they fire me from this job, also from the other one. It was a mistake, but it's that I don't let anyone mess with me and I get annoyed by people like that."
