“No, I don't want to die.” He replied with a serious gaze, before tearing his gaze away from her. He noticed that she was trying to make him afraid, but the truth was that he wasn't afraid of death. He believed that death was a phase that everyone would pass through some day, and that had helped him become stronger.She remained quiet after that as she continued to drive the car. He wondered where they were going, and why she was no longer saying anything. He had noticed that she loved to blab, but her sudden silence was concerning.“Maybe she's trying to scare me?” He asked himself. It seemed like she was trying both methods. The quiet one, and the talking one. She was trying to get him to be scared, but he wasn't going to get to him.Getting to their location, he was shocked to see that she was packed at the beach. He furrowed his brows again, and his eyes darted around in shock. It was almost like she had taken him to a wrong place.“Are you also scared to come down from the vehi
“Yes, I'm ready.” He maintained a serious expression as well. His hands were fisted, and he grinded his teeth against each other. He knew that his father's enemies were now after his life, even when he had not been announced.“So Enzo is the name, right?” She waited for him to make any movement He nodded his head as he muttered, “yeah.” “Yeah, I never really expected I had a cousin, but here we are,” she teased before putting on a serious expression.Just when he thought they were bonding, she brought back her serious nature again. He couldn't even think about letting his guard down now, he knew that anything could happen whenever he did that, so he was ready to do anything.“That’s the spirit. I think you're getting tougher,” she commented, turning her back towards him with a smirk on her face.Even when her back was turned towards him, he didn't fail to notice that she was about to pull a trick on him. He was very observant, and already got prepared for her. “Great. Then you wou
Bianca was seated at home. She was also watching the live session. “Demi, what are you waiting for, Luca is about to make his second announcement,” she called his attention, biting into the biscuits she had brought out to keep her mouth busy.“Demi!” She yelled a few moments later, and he replied. “I'm coming…” She sighed, and returned back to watching the show. Her eyes were glued on the screen as she picked up her drink to push down the biscuit she had swallowed.“Lorenzo Angelo!” The name she heard, and the person that walked out, waving his hands caused everyone to be in shock including her. Bianca suddenly started coughing profusely, and her face turned red because she was choking on the drink she had gulped.Demi, who heard her coughing, rushed into the sitting room, and the moment he saw who was on TV, he dropped the glass that was in his hands.His face turned pale, and he gulped nervously, trailing Bianca who had gotten herself. She was now panting for breath, and was s
“Demi stop you're hurting me!” she tried to struggle, but all she did was in veins in fact, it felt like she was struggle with an enemy rather than the man that hurt her.“Please…” she cried, and it was then his eyes widened.he let her go, causing her to fall on the ground as her red eyes brought about tears that trailed down her cheek. She don't even know what to do at this point. She saw an anger in Demi she had never seen before.“You better find that stupid sister if yours because, ugh!” he banged his hands against the door before storming out of the room, leaving her in fear. She was afraid that all those things could befall her. Infact, she was really worried about what she could do.She quickly rushed to her phone which was thankfully still okay, and she tried reaching out to her stupid sister who was the reason for all this confusion.She wondered what was going on between Lorenzo, and her sister. She was sure from the picture that she was having the time of her life, and tha
He helped her calm down, and once they were done at the restaurant, he urged her to come with him.“Where are we going?” She asked with raised brows, and a confused look on her face. It was obvious that so many things were going through her mind, and that she didn't want to go with him.He paused, and turned towards her. His hands reached for her cheek, asn he noticed how cold her skin was.“Are you cold, or scared?” He asked with raised eyebrows while she tried to stammer the answer to the question.She was confused about whether to go there or not. She was this close to losing Enzo before, she didn't want to lose him again no matter what. Her eyes seemed tired, and she shook her head. “ I have some savings, we can get new clothes. There's no point going there, please…” she begged, but he only laughed.“What if I tell you I want to see the look on Bianca's face when she sees me with you?” The way he said it caused her cheeks to turn red while she hid her arms behind her back.“When
He stared at his father in worry. He didn't know how to tell his father this, but he didn't think that he was ready for whatever they had to bring to him.He raised his head up. Concern filled his face, and his father could tell that he was worried about something.“What the matter?” He asked with raised brows. He was worried about the expression his son had on.“I don't think I'm ready to share my story now. I believe that there's a time for that, and I don't think that this is the right time.” He nodded to his son's words. Besides, it's his son's story, and he had a choice to either tell the story, or leave it.“If that's father then I'll suggest that we have a good rest because it seems like you're forgetting tomorrow is my big day at the office.” His father laughed. The fact that Enzo was excited was what made him so happy. He recalled the first day he stepped into his own office. Despite the fact that he was the founder, he was excited for the lunch of his company as well.“It
“I came to see you…” she was still looking stressed over something, but he couldn't guess what that was about.“Clare, what's wrong?” He asked, but she seemed to have pressed her lips together. Her eyes were pleading with him, and he wondered what she was about to say. He had lived with Clare a few years. That was when the family moved into his mansion which Bianca took as hers, so he knew that something was bothering her.“Are you free to talk?” She asked, and he nodded, packing up the files. He didn't know what a situation where he would neglect her she was the reason why he was still alive, so he owed her his life.“Yes, I'm free. Let's go somewhere,” he said, picking up his key, and briefcase with a smile on his face.She was shocked that he had taken his keys, and wanted to go somewhere private just to talk to her. “Are you sure I'm not bothering you, we can talk her if you what.” Her eyes darted around the office, and then it landed on his face, and then she smiled.He was suc
He fisted his hands, walking over to that place with worry in his mind. It was obvious that he had gotten enough from these two. Killing him, and making him pay wasn't enough, they still had ten guts to come here?“W– what are they–” “I don't know!” he growled, slowly fisting his hands in such a way that it cracked. His heart was drumming uncontrollably, and he hoped it wasn't what he was thinking because no one would ever forgive them for whatever they did to him in the past.In a matter of seconds, he rushed towards the scene, and was about to say something when his father stopped him.“No. Please… I can explain,” Luca said with his head. It was obvious that he was really worried, and scared at the same time for everything, but then was there anything he could do about it, he couldn't deny what he was being told.“What the hell is going on here!” Enzo yelled not being able to keep since anymore. It was obvious that he was pissed even when he tried to behave himself.He turned to De
Fear was still evident in her eyes, and the fact that the man was still standing there was something she couldn't comprehend.She looked around, dirt sticking to her already sweaty body. it wasn't as easy as she thought.Bianca darted her eyes around, and there was something wrong.She noticed it immediately, furrowing her brows with displeasure. It seemed like she didn't know what she was doing again.Her head was about to explode. The truth she had found made her flinch.There was someone else who was not laying on the ground. There were four men chasing after her, one was still on the lookout.Her eyes darted around, and then she turned to the man who the rat of the sun was still blocking.“There's one more person who isn't here,” she blurted out, but since she couldn't get his reaction, she watched with fear.At that moment, there was a light movement of the bushes around. She didn't even know what to do at this time.Even when she was scared, after like a minute of movement, she
Bianca closed her eyes for a while, but the next time she opened it, she asked the man if he knew where he was going because had never tried these paths before.Her heart was pounding like crazy and she didn't know what else to do. Her heart felt like it was about to fall out of her chest.She turned towards him, and tried to speak, but then she didn't know if he was even hearing her because everyone since she had gotten into the car, he hadn't spoken.He was just quiet, and Bianca noticed he would often spy on her through the rear view mirror.“Can’t you hear me?” She questioned, and the more he kept silent, the more fear grew inside of her.Her bones were shaking while she tried to swallow the lump that was on her throat. She was super worried, throat turning dry in an instant. Her face was as though it was drained of blood, and he couldn't help, but watch her through the rearview mirror.“Listen to me, where are we now? I've never seen this place in my life,” she spoke so fast she
Demi felt his eyes darkened, and his heart shattered into bits. He didn't know his father would refuse him the offer he had made. Didn't he sound innocent enough, or was his begging not good enough to Luca.He tried too hard to stay calm because he was boiling inside. He knew he had time to convince his father, but the most important thing was that they needed to do it today. He knew he promised his mother he wasn't going to fail at this mission. He was going to make sure that things worked out and needed the company badly. He needed to take Enzo down. Demi was quiet for a while, and during that time, he was thinking of a way he could use to get his father's favour. He knew his request wouldn't come easy.He was going to make sure his father gave him what he wanted.“But father, I know that you don't want me to be known because you're ashamed to own me.” Luca turned towards him, and was already feeling heavy inside. The fact that his son was actually saying the truth hurt him, b
“Oh my gosh! Damn it!” he stopped the car, his heart drumming in his chest. He rushed out of the car, and looked around to see that no one was around.He ran his hands through his hair, but the only best thing was to check if she was alive.He bent down to check up on how she was breathing, and heaved when her breathing was normal.Once he was sure, he carried her into the car, and drove her to the hospital.He wasn't sure who she was, but he was determined to save her life. She was bleeding from her head, nose, and even from her mouth. She had a very nasty fall after being hit.“Why did you walk in the middle of the road like that?” The man asked himself, trying to get her to the hospital as fast as she could. She was already unconscious. That alone could be a bad sign.Demi didn't care about Bianca running off. She was too much of a child for him, and she needed to go. She was one of the reasons why his plan didn't work.“Just one job!” He growled, moving to go pour himself a glas
He knew what she tried to do. She was trying to avoid any kind of questions she was being asked.The doctors tried to come close, but he held his hands up, making the doctor stop in his tracks. There was no doubt something was wrong. He was sure that something was up, but he didn't want to be the one to tell her.He turned towards her, pulling her face so she could look at him.“If you really want to lie to me, wjy don't you try harder?” She gasped, gulping down the nervousness. She wanted to facepalm herself. Of course the driver would have told him what happened..she had forgotten about that.A sigh left her lips, but she was still hesitant to give away she knew how smart Lorenzo was. If he knew what happened, he wouldn't be determined to know what happened. He would have started the process to deal with Bianca.She shook her head, and turned towards him with a serious look on her face “The doctors have to begin their work on me. I don't feel good.” The truth remained that he was
The driver had finally gotten to the hospital, but the pressure he felt was real. His heart drummed loudly, and he didn't know what else to do.The nurses who had seen him drive in, rushed towards them with a stretcher bed. “Sir well take it from here,” They replied, helping her to the stretcher beds with a worried look on their faces.“You should fill up the form at the receptionist while we'll get her ready to meet the doctor. Don't worry, she'll be fine.” He nodded to her words, and rushed to the receptionist who handed him a form to fill about her.He filled her name, current address, status, etc. some of the vital info he didn't know, he left it blank.”I don't know the rest,” The young lady smiled. “No worries, this is enough.” Once that was done, the driver, who didn't want to lose his job, rushed after her. However, he wasn't allowed into the ER.At this point, they needed to stabilise her. He sat outside, packing back, and forth as he watched a batch of doctors rush in.
He arrived at the private room they had booked with his guards behind him. He entered, and immediately saw Demi who was in the room.There was a lot of tension coming from the both of them, but the most important thing was that he was able to handle it maturely.He walked into the room, and the moment Demi set his eyes on him, he forced a grin to plaster on his lips.The truth was that he was scared. However, the fact remained that there were other things that could go wrong because there was no level of trust.“Brother…” Demi called in a dark tone. His eyes staring directly into her eyes. Enzo didn't reply to that. He didn't know when they became brothers, and he never wanted to admit to the fact that they were brothers.Their relationship was broken without being able to be amended. There was no doubt that something was wrong with it.“Aren't you going to say something? Do you hate me that much?” He asked with a raised brow as confusion washed over him. “You aren't a brother to m
“There's nothing monstrous about what I did. I wanted to talk to you. How would I have been able to do that when you don't even want to talk to me.” She confessed, making Clare roll her eyes. “You have nothing important to say at this point. He knows Bianca. You are selfish, so monstrous. I can't believe mom was in on this. I'm leaving!” There was silence in the room, but as she approached the door, Bianca rushed towards her. “No, mom helped me because she knew I really wanted to talk to you.” Bianca blocked the door to make sure that her sister wasn't able to leave.“Please listen to me. You have to listen to me, I'm begging you. Yes, I did horrible things to you in the past, and I'm sorry. That's why I want to talk to you,” Clare only frowned after hearing what her sister said to her, and at a point, all Bianca could do was to make sure that things were in place.She knew her sister couldn't leave the house no matter what. It was the other that Demi gave her, and she had to fol
He stared at his window for a while and at that point he thought about everything he wanted to do. The plan was simple, and indeed, he tried; he knew that he could have a hold on demi, he just had to play along with it.He picked up his phone, and then turned to the recorder which he had planned to turn on.“Don't fail me…” he took a big sigh, and with that he was able to dial Demi's phone number, hoping that his crazy brother would pick up.He could tell the hatred they had for each other had grown, and that's when he was trying to do what he could to make sure that everything went well. He was trying to make sure there were no mistakes.Finally Demi picked up the call with a happy tone.“Hello brother, have you convinced dad to give me my company yet? You know you have little time right? The world is so sad by your behaviour. I have them under my control, and they only believe what I say.” He laughed out loud, and Lorenzo only smirked.“Dad offered to give you other properties, wh
