Now that he has sent the gun in her hand he knows that she isn't joking. His hands are raised in surrender as he backs away into his seat, the one he was sitting on. Eden has managed to cut the tape around her hands and now she is the one with the gun. " You know that the other guy is just outside, right?" He reminds her. " I could whistle right now and you are done for."" Go ahead, do it." She dares, poking the gun against his forehead. " If I don't blow your fucking brains out." He laughs, he behaves so much like Ansel that it kind of creeps her out. Eden has her eyes on him and her ears opened to listen whenever someone walks in. Felix's eyes are boring through her, he is like reading through what is going through her mind. " I get it now." He sounds defeated. " You are a lot smarter than we thought."Eden tilts her head, it's now her turn to smile at him. " It took you a while to get it right, didn't you?" She mocks. " I see what's going on here." He nods. " Your brother

Mister Jimmy looks scared, but he manages to keep himself composed. Eden still has the gun pressed on his head. " That's a very complicated question, do you want to sit down?" He offers. "No." She grunts. " Get talking."He glances over to his son's wife who is totally horrified. "I'm going to call the police!" She screams as if Eden is supposed to scare off the police. " Yeah, you do that." Eden scoffs. " Your father-in-law is supposed to be in jail anyway." " Miss Eden, if you can just tell me what this is about." He begs. " We don't have to settle it this way." " You heard my question, start to answer!" She fires at him, she is losing her patience little by little. "Okay, okay, okay." He gulps down the air. He looks at his son's wife and gives her a nod. She reluctantly goes up the stairs and they are left alone. She lowers the gun and he breathes out in relief. " I'm not dropping this for too long if you don't start talking." He nods and adjusts his seat. " Miss Eden

Duke rubs the bridge of his nose and runs his hand through his silk black hair. There are soldiers, standing in attention to him, their general. As he walks past them, they all salute. He doesn't give them any attention as he jumps right into the SUV that is waiting for him. The door is shut behind him and the convoy starts to move. Apart from the Driver, someone else is in the front seat, it's Bloom, his faithful assistant. " Good morning, boss." Bloom greets. " The plane is going to leave as soon as we get on it.

She is so going to die, he is going to rape her and kill her afterward. He holds her and moves her to the bed and that's when she bursts into tears. "Please, don't hurt me. " She begs. " You said that you would help me. " " That's what I am trying to do, sweetheart, why won't you let me?" She doesn't see how her getting on a bed is going to his mind tends to her wound and so she doesn't stop trying to free herself. He holds her down with one of his hands and takes off his belt very easily. She starts to sob, she doesn't have any strength left as he ties her hands with his belt. The belt acts as a string rope and she stops moving so much. He takes a look at her gown, there is no way he would be able to take this off her easily, she is being such a rebel. He rolls his eyes and proceeds to tear her c

" Didn't you say that you would do anything to get your face back?" He asks. " I have made your dream come true, now marry me. " Melody looks shocked. Her eyes move quickly. From the face is the handsome man that is looking at her and then away. She doesn't know what to think of this. " You don't want to?" Duke asks. " You don't think I am good enough to be your husband?" Is he kidding right now? He is so gorgeous that she started to have weird dreams about him now, he is every woman's dream. He took care of her while she recovered and she has kind of started to fall in love with him too. He is the definition of a good husband. She walks towards him and slowly touches his face. Now she can admire him without thinking of her own ugliness, it's gone. " Marry me, Melody. " He repeats. "Okay. " Fuck it. He is the only one who has been able to come up with a solution to her long problem and for that, she is going to marry him. **** Melody had no idea that marriage could be done so

Melody is mad at her for the way he handled this with her grandfather and she doesn't speak to him as they walk to the car. She shuts the door so loudly when she gets it that Duke turns around and frowns at her. " You are fully aware that this is the only car that we have, right?" He asks. " How could you be so naive?" She laments with anger. " He was baiting you and you took it like a fucking fish!" Duke knows sheis angry and he just starts the car and drives out of her grandfather's old mansion. Her eyes are outside and her head is supported by her hand, it's obvious that she is trying to think of a way out of this mess. " I have friends. " She sighs. " If I beg them well enough they might lend us the money. It will take us decades to pay back but at least I have my face now, and I can work well. " " You aren't taking any loan from your friend. " He tells her. " Oh, Mister genius. " She raises her hands helplessly. " Do you have thousands of dollars bills stacked somew

Duke stands up angrily and walks out of the office even though Melody is screaming for him not to. He walks down the hall and ignores the look that he is getting because of the angry snare on his face. He keeps walking until he looks up and sees one of the bank workers walking toward him. He looks timid, or maybe she is just a really shy person. He caves in towards her and she stops in her tracks and takes a few steps back as if she is scared of him. " Can you please point me in the way of the bathroom?" He requests. She nods and points at the fourth floor from them. He nods and thanks her, walking towards it. He turns the knob and shuts it behind him. He hits the door and grunts, trying so hard to swallow all his anger. He walks around, kicking the doors open to make sure that he is alone and he is. He takes out his phone and dials Bloom's number, Bloom is always at his service so he picks it up at the first ring. " Boss, it's all fine?" Bloom inquires. " Di

Eden is on the ground, her eyes are shut and she has no consciousness of what has happened to her. The one who has hit her looks up as Ansel stares at him. " I'm sorry, boss." He apologizes. " She was going to cause trouble for us."The other one appears from the front door, he looks at his partner. " It's a good thing you got her when you did, Nate." He nods at him. He who she just entered now is Felix. He has worked for Ansel for a long time and even with his father before. He is close to Ansel and unlike the rest, he has a way to get Ansel to listen to him. " Felix, you got him up to it?" Ansel turns to him, not very happy. " I told you I was going to handle it."" I'm sorry, but you could have taken care of her if you wanted a long time ago." Felix looks down at her. " The fact that she is still alive is enough to tell that you needed a push."He looks at Nate, who looks as if Ansel is going to kill him for what he has done. " Tie her up with duct tape." He instructs. " The

Eden can't believe that this is about to happen. It feels like she has just heard that the rapture is about to come. " When was this decided?" She asks Logan. " I don't know. " He answers truthfully. " Duke just told me what I have told you and that's all I know."Her heart is going crazy. Yes, she wants for the evil among Mafia to end, but she doesn't want Ansel to go down with them. " I have to tell Ansel." She says to herself. " I can't let him fall with the rest."She is already walking away when Logan catches her hand and stops her. "I'm sorry, I can't let you do that." He apologizes. " So you expect me to stand still and watch Ansel get destroyed?" She is agitated. " Let go of me!" She is pulling attention towards them and he has no choice but to pull her to a secret part of the building. She shrugs him off violently. "Listen to me, you have to listen to me." He implores her. " We both should be grateful that Duke saved us from getting caught in the net. Telling Ansel

He was going to be here tonight, she knew and had prepared for that. He has been ignoring her all these weeks, but she hasn't done anything to get his attention. She didn't come here with the intent to get to speak to him, no she came for the meeting and she was going to leave afterward. Now he has entered the room with a lady she has never seen, and she is trying her best to keep cool with it. It would have been better if that was just it, but that lady was having her hands all over him and she started to find it hard to breathe.

After a long drive, Duke returns home. It's kind of a relief because he is living alone, without those soldiers around to scare him anymore and it comes in quite handy now that he has his own tiny family. He steps out of the car with the crunchies and walks to the house. " Hello, I'm home." He announces loudly. Melody appears from the kitchen with a spatula in her hand and an exhausted look on her face. " Oh God, your back." She wipes sweat from her eyebrow. " Didn't know you would be back so quickly."" I had luck on my side, I found it." He lifts it up for her to see and her face lights up in delight. They walk towards each other and he gives it to her as she places a kiss on the side of his cheek. That was a tease, she kisses him on his lips and he giggles, he is delighted. " I would go out and scavenge for other crunchies if you would kiss me again." She laughs, he is funny when he wants to be. "Oh, I won't do that to my husband." She shakes her head. " But here is anot

Eden hasn't been confused like this in a long time. Ansel hasn't called her since he asked her to leave his house and also she has been too scared to try to call him too. That doesn't mean that hasn't been thinking about what happened in his house, the confrontation, and how she blurted out that she loves him. She might have imagined it, but it's possible that he got kind of scared about what she said because then he refused to speak to her again. Ansel might be madly crazy, but she didn't lie. It might have been just sex and fooling around for him, but she fell for him a long time ago. That's why has ignored every sign that proved to be a red flag in him. She is still hoping that he is going to give up his bad side. She doesn't want to think of him ending up like the bad guys in movies, she hates it. This had led her to some kind of depression and that's why she is still in her room when it's almost midday. She hasn't gone out of her room and she has canceled all meetings tha
