“Asher! I'm in trouble! Some guys… they've been following me for a while and last night they almost tried to rape me! Now I'm in the café and they're here too. Come please! I need your help”.Elena sent a live location after the message and waited for it to indicate read. As upset as he was, she knew he wasn't heartless.“You can rot in hell for all I care”.“Please Asher, I'm begging you. They are armed and the café is rapidly emptying. I think they want to kidnap me. Please Asher. My dad's been in some bad debt lately”.The text messages came bugging Asher's phone. He didn't want to believe her but he knew in his heart that he'd eventually come for her, no matter how many times he tried to convince himself that this was one of her many tricks to get to him. Did she really think he'd ever forgive her?. That was a no! But she was definitely right about one thing! She'd made him emotionally unstable. And yes, he wasn't over her yet.Elena kept bugging him, pleading with him to come urg

“Sofia?”Sofia raised her head from her computer.“The boss wants to see you.”Sofia Brown, a straight blonde, hurriedly put on her pumps. “Mr. Emilio must want the files”She took them in hand, walking briskly to the office.Riccardo opened the door.“Oh, Signore (Mister) Riccardo. It's a delight to see you!”“Piacere mio, bella”(my pleasure,beautiful)Riccardo said, letting her in.Sofia blushed. “Grazie (thank you) Signore Riccardo”“And where did you learn to speak Italian, Sofia?”“Good morning sir”, Sofia said hastily bowing. She hadn't noticed when Asher had come from the adjacent office.“Ahh, Miss Brown speaks excellent Italian young master, her mother's a native of my place”.“Interesting… how come I missed out on this information?”.“You didn't… I didn't think it was a requirement sir.” Sofia tugged her hair shyly behind her ears.“That's no problem.

“Sasha…”.“Yes babe”.“You know that I'm the only heir right?”.“Of course. I mean, Emilio can be head of a thousand companies, you still remain the heir”“Of course. But my patience is growing thin. Emilio's presence is making time go by so sluggishly. He’s intruding”.Sasha was a bit frightened. “So what do you plan on doing?”.“Put him on leave for a little while."“You don't plan on killing him do you?” Sasha who was lying down in his things now sat up to face him.“Tell me, what are his … allergies?”Sasha stared pale into Andrea's eyes. A dark smile creeped over him. He bent his head to kiss her neck, proceeding to her shoulders. “You are going to help me Sasha, aren't you. Remember, I'm the heir. I must take my place and with you by my side to become one of the world's richest females.”The thought of becoming influential excited her. She giggled as he moved his hands through the thin lace of her nightie.“Allergies… allergies…”, Sasha tried to think. “Well, I noticed he doesn'

“Mariaaa!. Mariaaa!”, Vincenzo called out as soon as he got home.Maria came out in her long silver dress adorned in pearls. Her silver earrings with diamond studs dangled as she walked towards Vincenzo.He enveloped her in a big hug.“La mia adorabile moglie(My lovely wife), how was your day?” Maria patted her hair. She had just returned from the salon not too long ago.“Well, I stepped out to the salon today. Had some of that french parfait”“Ahh me too!” He said, walking her to the couch.“And where have you been?”“At the Salvatores' . We had a little umm … business meeting”Maria rolled her eyes. Mr Salvatore's wife disgusted her.“How's business?”“Splendid! I wonder how Emilio does it. He runs the company here so well. We had sealed three contracts just last week alone! The boy knows everything about business..”, Vincenzo chatted away excitedly but all Maria was filled with was more hate and resentment for him.“It’s simply incredibile, don't you think so, Maria?”, Vincenzo sa

Thud!This was the third time she was escaping since the previous week. Fortunately, the stakes today weren't as high as last time. Her father was out of the country for a business trip and she already had dinner.In less than thirty minutes, she was at The Garden. Marco, who was examining the dim light in the garden, didn't notice her. She wrapped her hands around him from behind.“Heyy”, he said, unwrapping her hands to face her. He placed his hands on her waist. “It's been a while”.“I've missed you”. She placed her hands around his neck and leaned for a kiss. But when Marco started going in for more, Luna withdrew.“Marco…”.He rolled his eyes.“Luna. Why do you keep doing this?” He placed his hands in his pocket, immediately upset.“It's not like that Marco. Look, we've talked about this”.“You are too…”.“What? I'm not loose enough for you? I'm too much of a princess?”, Luna shook her head. “ I totally risked…”“Hey, hey.'' He caressed her shoulders. “Let's not… waste our time

Sofia sat in the waiting room, waiting for the nurse to signal her when she could go in. She was overly anxious, her hands fidgeted and her feet tapped the floor uncontrollably. She'd been denied for two days now, the doctors saying that she wasn't strong enough for visitors. Dr. Grayford had taken time to explain her mother's state and the image kept reappearing in her head. There was no way she was going to be stable after this and work had made her far behind her therapy sessions.“Oh Sofie!” Varietta rushed to her cousin to give her a hug.“Varietta. What are you…?!”.“ I had to come as soon as I heard Zia (aunty) was sick. How is she?”.“You didn't have to fly all the way from… Texas?”“Brazil, darling", her cousin said, beaming with pride."Brazil? You guys have moved again"."Well, it's only been a few months".Sofia scratched the rash near the end of her upper arm."Well, I had no idea those few months!" Sofia hit her cousin playfully. Varietta laughed."Well, you are always b

Elena lay in the hospital bed, her body bruised and battered. Her eyes opened slightly, the blinding light of her room bulb piercing wickedly. The sterile, white walls seemed to close in around her, echoing the pain she felt inside. She felt entirely weak.Her head banged painfully. The sharp memories of the assault, she could still vividly see Finn kicking the shit out of her. She groaned as loud as her strength could carry. She reached for the emergency button, and pressed it.A nurse soon came to her ward.“Are you ok ma'am?”“I'm in so much. My head hurts so much.”“I'm so sorry. Give a minute to get your medication”The nurse administered some painkillers and a sedative so that Elena could rest. She'd been unsettled even after the medication.“My baby nurse. What happened to my baby?”Of course, her nurse couldn't tell her. The doctor had specifically instructed that she had no knowledge of her baby's death.“My baby.”Elena cried. “I lost it, didn't i?”“I can't tell you for sure

"Please, sit".Varietta and Sofia sat down on the office chairs and the doctor, across them."Anything new doctor?"."Not yet. Your mother is... very strong. We need a little more time to confirm our tests".Varietta squeezed Sofia's shoulder a little. The doctor continued."For the meantime, we would require one or each of you, take turns if you may, to come visit everyday. As you already noticed, she's alive but ... just asleep in a way. She can sense presence and does pretty well to acknowledge it by little hand gestures and facial gestures. "Sofia held the chair tightly. Her anxiety was getting to her and she needed to calm down.She let out a sigh, trying to practise her breathing lessons underneath. How was she going to manage work and visiting her mum. She knew for sure, she had a lot of files piled on her desk."No problem, we'll visit.", She looked at Sofia. "I've cancelled my flight so I can stay for a while, perhaps till next weekend ""Oh Vari..."."Anything for Zia".

Chapter 179:The Happy Ending
Chapter 179: The happy ending “What? “How dare you?!” Maria panicked at first when Asher said what he said, but she quickly covered it up. “ Vincenzo, did you just hear what he said?”“Gaius Come in” Asher said and Maria's knees suddenly went weak. She stumbled behind as she thought she was seeing a ghost. What was Gauis doing here? I thought he was dead.“Gaius here revealed everything to me after Maria and Andrea tried killing him off for finding out their secret ''. “Here sir,” Gauis said, handing a brown envelope to Vincenzo. “Father, in there is the DNA result of Andrea and Mr Wyatt Oril”“What? The late Mr Wyatt?” Vincenzo asked, scanning through the contents of the DNA results. “Yes, that Mr Wyatt, Maria and her son killed him off, as he was a threat to their plans of killing me. And since they couldn’t succeed, Maria here began the slow process of killing you off slowly by lacing your tea every day with a substance. That’s why you have been so weak lately. Here is the s

Chapter 178“Hey let go of me!”. Finn yelled loudly at the prison guards as he was dragged into the toture room. “Do you want to die? Do you know who you are laying your hands on? let me go. Let me the fuck go”Finn was dragged and strapped on the same metallic chair that was used to torture Asher. Mr Vincenzo gave those specific instructions.“Hey!Hey! Are you guys deaf?!Call my dad. You people are dead meat once I leave this place” his spat out at the guards, only to get a hard punch to the stomach as a response. Smack! Smack!“You want to speak to your father right?” The prison warden said as he entered the room “Fine, we will call him for you.”A call was placed across to Mr. Wilson, and with one single ring, his voice echoed at the other end of the line. “Hello Mr. Wilson, someone is dying to speak with you.” The warden passed the phone to Finn, who didn’t hesitate to grab it”“Dad!, dad!What the hell is going on? I have been here for weeks now. What am I still here?”“Shut u

Chapter 177Finn staggered back and Sofia scurried away from behind him. She picked up the gun which had fallen near her boss. Asher, on the floor by then, was fast losing a lot of blood.He brought his hand to his face. It was blood. He stood unsteady, his vision blurry and double and his mind was hazy. He staggered forward a little and Sofia quickly picked up the gun and aimed it at him.“Stay away!”Finn tilted from side to side, trying to widen his eyes. That made it worse as he couldn't even see Sofia or decipher the position of the gun anymore“You…”, he said, swinging his hand aimlessly. In fear, Sofia pulled the trigger and shot his leg.“Arghh”, Finn groaned, holding his leg. His back hit the wall and he fell to the floor, his mind's vision slowly going into a blackout.Sofia turned her focus to her boss, squatting down to his level.“Boss”, she said, shaking his leg. He was still conscious.“Sofie”, he whispered, the most quiet whisper Sofie had ever heard.“Boss! Stay with

Chapter 176The heavy screwdriver fell off her hands and landed on Sofia's right leg.“Ow!”, She cried in pain. She held herself from cursing out, hopping away a little, from the control board.She had tried to pull off the metal cover of the control board for the door. But there were no screws on it. Then, she tried to break the cover. And that landed her in the situation she was presently in. Sofia banged on the door.“Help!!”But she knew her efforts were effortless. There was none other in the building than her and Asher - and the intruder she recognised so much but couldn't place a finger on where she'd seen him.Sofia wanted to feel exhausted but the anxiety that controlled her was great. She'd spent at least fifteen minutes trying to get out of the room and that was more than enough time for her boss to have been reached and attacked by the intruder - probably even dead.“No”, she gasped. She had to think fast. She had to get out now.“Think Sofia. Think”, she said to herself,

Chapter 175Sofia relaxed a little when she heard footsteps on the staircase. She knew she was usually tense when they were in the same space but her anxiety seemed to heighten by the minute. It was unusual and she couldn't put a finger to it. She had tried to concentrate on work but she had only progressed in eating all the biscuits and cookies on the plate. She had poured the remaining contents of the bottled water into her mouth. Tossing the empty bottle into the bin underneath her desk, she had placed her fingers on her forehead and did a quick massage. Still, she felt stressed and just looking at the screen made her feel even more stressed.She took off her glasses and lay back on the chair. The footsteps felt closer now. She opened her eyes. No footstep heard. Maybe she really needed that sleep.She closed her system. Then she heard the footsteps again. Curious, she got up from where she was sitting and moved towards the door.For some reason, she was stealth about it. She look

Chapter 174The security cameras picked Finn's car as it sped past Asher's residential building. Finn's car was captured by the vigilant security cameras as it zipped past Asher's residential building, leaving a trail of speed in its wake. The driver and bodyguard in the car that had brought Elena noticed the car and watched it zoom off, bearing witness to the fleeting scene.The bodyguard put a phone call through to Mr. Salvatore.“Boss”“Speak to me Spider”“Intruder alert”“Intruder alert?”“Yes Boss. Some car just sped past us. There is no other residential building in this place and I can still see the car parked, though it's far away from the gate.”“Well, who's in it?”“We don't know yet Boss.”“Find out Spider and don't let them ruin this plan. È tutto chiaro? (Is that clear)”“Sì Capo (Yes Boss)”The call ended. Paolo moved towards where Raphael was. “They say there's an intruder, Raphael”“Oh really”, Raphael replied, his eyes fixed on the screen.“Put the security camera'

Chapter 173Sofia let out some air, obviously exhausted. Her boss, Asher, paced the room as he gave instructions over the phone. “I want ceramic used in those spaces, Travis, not wood. Did you…”Asher paused, listening to what the voice over the phone had to say.“Travis, Travis….”Another pause.“Listen.. listen to me. I don't want to know if it is or if it is not possible to get the ceramic tiles today. Whatever it is you need to do to get them today - this night - do it. Do it now. When I come by tomorrow, and just note I'll be coming in very early, I want the exact type and quality that I asked for. Can you get that done, Travis?”Asher paused for longer this time. “Okay. Let me rephrase that. Get it done Travis. Thank you”He ended the call. “What's up? Are you done?”“Yes sir”, Sofia said, letting out a sigh of relief at the end of her sentence. Asher did too.“Finally”, Asher said to Sofie, a slight smile on his face.Meanwhile, after minutes of wasted efforts going in the w

Chapter 172It was dark out. Asher glanced at his watch as he went up the stairs. It was past seven already. He walked into the office room where Sofie was still working.“Are you done?”“Almost sir. Let me just tidy up this document”“Alright”He left the room and came back with two small glass bowls of fruit salad.“Here”, he said, handing it over to Sofia.“Oh.. thank you Boss”“You deserve it”, he said, taking his over to the mediun sized sofa. Pink flushed on her cheeks and she had to bend her face so he wouldn't noticed. Asher smiled, noticing before she could even hide it. In all his life, he didn't know a person more shy than Sofia.He settled on the sofa, balancing the fruit salad bowl in his hand.“I've been willing to ask something, Sofia”Sofia raised her head immediately, unnecessarily in alarm.“How has your mum been?”“My mum? She's fine. She's.. perfectly okay”“Is she still at the hospital?”“Oh no sir. She got discharged about ..two months ago? Yes. It should be two

Chapter 171“It’s done Boss”, the delivery guy said, adjusting the air pod in his ear as he rode. The bike bent as he maintained being on the bend, the wind flapping in his ear. When he got onto the straight road, he had to reduce his speed for the traffic ahead.“Good”, the voice responded. “Well done Ryder”“Yes sir”The call terminated and Paolo set his phone down on the table. In front of him were three monitors and a slim guy sat in front of them, moving from one screen to another.“What’s the update, Raphael?”, Andrew asked“I'm in. I have successfully gained access into the facility now”, he replied, zooming in on one of the screens. On it was a live recording of Asher's gate, which was still open even when Asher had closed it. So he thought.Raphael switched to another monitor. On the monitor display, the different controls that were sectioned to the different parts of the house were shown. Raphael zoomed into each room, and the door controls, studying the signals. From there,
