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
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
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
The night was still young and while many would have hoped to enjoy the beauty that comes with the night, it had all been disrupted with a heavy downpour, which dropped heavily, forcing everyone to get back to their houses.Lorenzo had been caught outside by the rain, but he had made up his mind despite his health condition to make it back to his house. Apparently, he had gone out to visit an old friend of his, who lived nearby. As he knocked on the gates while the rain poured, Lorenzo cursed heavily; he had health issues and staying under the rain wouldn't help in any way.After several knocks, he felt relief as his beloved wife Bianca stepped out with an umbrella In her hands. For some odd reason that Lorenzo couldn't point out, she looked absolutely furious. "Thank you very much." Lorenzo stated, grabbing his walking stick and hurriedly attempting to step inside. Bianca halted his movement with her hands and Lorenzo became confused temporarily."And where were you all day long?" On
"You slapped me?" Clare asked in disbelief, trying to relish the entire moment, while still rubbing her cheeks. "Don't ask me silly questions. I have always warned you never to interfere in my marriage and you failed to listen. If you keep doing this, I would keep on with my act and there is nothing you can do about it." Bianca berated, staring down at Lorenzo with disdain in her eyes. As Bianca berated Clare, the tension in the room was palpable. Lorenzo knew Clare was going to react."What in heaven's name has gotten over you Bianca? Why have you chosen to be a thorn in your husband's flesh? You were never like this; I once remembered how you claimed to love him so much. I am disappointed in you." Clare stated, shaking her head in disappointment. "You don't tell me what to do Clare and if you keep getting on my nerves, I would be forced to report to father." Lorenzo noticed Clare's hands were folded into a fist and her anger was increasing every second. He adjusted himself for a
Clare, and Bianca were having a very serious argument in the sitting room about Lorenzo "I didn't like your attitude earlier. Why would you go against my orders?" "Do you want him killed? Maybe you'd like to spend the rest of your life in jail, but not me. He's your–"She stopped talking when she heard a familiar voice screaming. "Ahhhh!'' His voice echoed throughout the whole house, and it caused Clare to gasp. She covered her lips with her hands, and turned to her sister who didn't seem the least concerned."That sounded like Lorenzo." "And what do I care?" Clare shook her head. Lorenzo was in danger, and his voice sounded distressed. She dashed out of her sister's presence, and was shocked to see that Bianca strolled behind her like the matter didn't even concern her.Clare arrived there to see him lying on the ground, and groaning in pain. She widened her eyes, and turned pale at the sight of him in pain."Ahhh!" "Are you alright?" He felt her wrap her hands around him, as
He knew Demi wasn't wrong. Anyone who saw him in that situation would think he had gotten into an accident. He had bandages on his head, and the crutches in his hand was a true representation of what he had gone through."Hmmm, it's a long story. One that can wait for another day."Demi smirked, playing with the pen in his hand."Why are you standing there?" Demi raised his brows as he gestured his hands towards Lorenzo to come seat.Lorenzo winced as he moved to go take a seat. His body was aching, and there was no doubt he was in a lot of pain. However, he couldn't help but admire his friend's office. It seemed like Demi had made it big in the last few years, unlike him."How are you doing?" Demi asked despite seeing his condition."Hmm…" he sighed, turning to Demi. "How are you doing?" Judging from the kind of life he saw Demi showed off on social media, he was sure he was doing fine."Hmm as you can see, I'm well. However, you don't look so good." Lorenzo couldn't tell while De
Veins popped up in his head as he grunted in pain countless times. Sweat trailed down his head, and he could only hold his leg as he tried to be a man. He was breathing harshly, and his eyes were raised to his wife who glared at him with nothing, but hate. She used to love him, care for him, take care of him, but all that was gone within a twinkle of an eye.Tragic?"Stop…" the word left his lip as a pant, and it felt like he couldn't do anything for himself. He held his legs still trying to mask the pain when Bianca hit him again, harder than the first."Ahhh!" He screamed."Stop, please…" “Enough!”He begged Bianca who was now wacking his leg like she was hitting a wood.When she was satisfied, she was already breathing harshly as well, and sweat trailed down her forehead as she walked away from where he was still on the ground screaming."You disgust me!" She was still very angry, and she fisted her arms with hate in her eyes towards him. Then she picked up the soup she was dri
