" During that time when I wanted to save you, I managed to saw a crescent shape on the chest of those strange people who attacked us but I couldn't decipher it so I didn't bother. It's just right now, I think the shape means something even though I don't know what it is." As she narrated this, the atmosphere dropped down to a nth degree.....With this, Nichola deliberated more on the issue. " There is more to it." He voiced out, pressing his hands together. " Yes, there is but I think we all know what's more important right now." Emilia looked at Nichola knowingly. Leonard sighed even more and moved closer to Emilia, holding her hand. " Your mother is right. We can wait. The family can wait but we have to save your family first." Something instantly tugged Nichola's heart but he coincided. " Oliver, investigate who Peter is and tell me why Andrea is so adamant to engage Liliana with his son." He ordered instantly. " Yes, young master." Oliver didn't waste a time and quick
Catherine was filled with so much joy that she could mot express in words as she left the hospital She had had a memorable time with her father, who was quickly recovering.She had talked with him about so many things. He had not lost his humour despite his long-term illness.They had joked and laughed and shared memories. She had also told him about Nichola and all that had been happening in her life. She also talked to him about the current news in the city as her father was someone who loved to be current with the news.She left out the parts of her being attacked and the job she had done for Andrea. She knew he would not be proud of it.She smiled as she pulled out of the hospital smiling as she recalled his now warm face that had glowed. He would be out of the hospital very soon and she could not wait to walk with him as he took his first steps out of the hospital after being in there for so long.She hit the road to her condominium. A hooded figure watched her leave the hospi
The resentment in her for Nichola grew with each passing second as Lisa sat in the room she had been confined in. "When the hell will Oliver be back?", she snapped at the men who held her hostage. They gave her nlank stare but did not respond. "I'm talking to you" Still no response. "You can't keep me locked up here without letting me know how long I'll be here" She groaned, still sulking. She could not wait to see Oliver she wished she could just devise a means to get out of the hospital. "At least let me know when I can go on a toilet break", she said. The men glared at her but refused to say anything. She hissed and turned her head to the other side in sheer anger and resentment. Who did these men think they were to hold her down against her wish? What did the company even think of themselves? She rolled her eyes when she saw through the corner of her eyes, one of the men who turned to look at her when she had gotten quiet and gave a satisfactory smile. She bit back a s
Oliver and his men talked about getting a submarine. They had reached out to a number of people who could make one available soonest.Oliver came to tell Nichola that they had gotten one already, and Nichola gave a curt nod in approval.As he turned to leave, his phone suddenly rang. It was Anna calling.He pressed his lips together in a thin line and answered the call."Nichola," she called from the phone with a slight slur in her soft voice, almost trying to sound pitable. "Please come over to my place as soon as you can,"Nichola scrunched his brows, pinching the bridge of his nose. As if she could see his face, she quickly added. "I need your assistance with something urgently,"He sighed. He was not in the mood to go back and forth with Anna, so he decided to just go there to see what was up with her and get it done with already."Are you there, Nichola?", she asked"Where are you?""I'm at a hotel. please come quickly", she purred slightly and Nichola grew skeptical for a secon
She looked quite okay to him and he wondered what help she could have called him there for.She smiled charmingly and poured an expensive wine into two wine glasses."We will get to that but first, have a drink", she said, sauntering over to him to hand him a glass of sparkling wine.Nichola looked down at the drink in Anna's hand coldly and refused it instantly. " There is no need. If you don't have anything to say. I will take my leave." He checked the time on his wristwatch and drew his brows together into a frown. Anna's face changed immediately, her lips twisting. " Why are you in a hurry? You just got here. Do you hate me that much you can't stand to see me or be in the same room with me? Don't forget there is still a marriage contract of me to you so I still have the right to call you." Nichola slowly lifted his head and gave her a dirty look. " Did you forgot to mention you also broke the contract cause you said you can't marry someone worthless and useless like me
Andrea knew there was no escape this time. She had been caught, and all her plans had gone down the drains. All her lies stared at her in the face. The audio Dane had made had made had exposed every lie without any chance for her to deny it.She grew red in shame and refused to meet Sandra's eyes. She could not even bear to see the look of disappointment on her best friend's face."I can not believe you, Andrea," Sandra screamed at the top of her voice at her, full of anger and disappointment. "How could you?"Andrea shifted uncomfortably, suddenly finding the marble tiles to be the most interesting thing in the world."You deceived me into thinking that your son was royalty. I can't even believe I fell for that lie. You yourself have no royal blood in you. You wanted my precious daughter to get married to that incomplete, animalistic son of yours, eh?"Sandra could not hold back her tears as she imagined what would have happened if they had gotten married."Thay beast that dies
Mia gasped and heaved in intense pain as she was held by Leonardo's men.She felt her impending doom looming over her, and she burst into tears from both the physical pain and the pain that was to come."I am very sorry. I am sorry I hurt and disappointed you. Please let me go. I swear I would never do it again," she pleaded tearfully, groaning in pain as she spoke.He turned to look at her, and the coldness with which he looked at her sent shivers down her spine, and she knew she was really in for it."Please," she begged, but he remained silent as they drove away."I promise I do not have anything to do with Liliana's disappearance. Truly, I sent men after her to hurt her, but luckily, she was rescued. Please release me, Leaonardo," she cried even more loudly, trying to buy some luck and gain sympathy from him.He kissed his teeth with his lips and shot a glare in her direction, silencing her."Save your explanations. You will explain when we get to our destination, "he sa
"Stay with me please, Liliana," he pleaded, his hands on her cheeks and tears rolled down her cheeks.She struggled to stay away, but she could not help the feeling of unconsciousness that loomed around her. " Ni-Nichola, you finally .... came..." she choked out and gave in to the welcoming darkness, while Nichola held her body that was already covered in blood. Staring her like this, Nichola didn't know when his eyes went red, bloody, crimson, his hands trembled as his heart squeezed together.....rage and resentment thumped in his heart like a drum beat and he marinated in ire! Liliana was his only weakness and they managed to use his weakness against him! They must face his deadly side whether alive or not breathing! Steven saw what just happened. His eyes widened out of disbelief. Immediately, he sucked his teeth and turned to Scar. " Why did you do that?! You are going to implicate us?! Are you that crazy?! That was not part of the plan!" He shouted annoyingly at Scar
