I stood staring at them, wondering who they were.I watched as the car all parked. I walked up to Lucian's car as he opened his door and stepped out of it. Lucian wasn't showing any reaction on his face as he looked at it with a strong reaction.I looked around as everyone else got out of their car and stared back at me. Lucian then stood beside me and asked how I was doing. I shifted my gaze at him and hissed, looking at Lucian.“Where is the willow?” I asked curiously with a sharp tone.Lucian kept his mouth shut, not saying anything as I stared at him, although he didn't show any response to my question and turned his face to the others.Gray then walked down to where Lucian and I were standing and openly said that he brought Willow out as she might be feeling all alone in the c

Moreover, moreover I'm trying to assist him in my own way, so there's not going to be a problem.” I spoke, taking a deep breath.“But still…”I stopped the guard before he could continue his words, as I knew he was about to keep up with his discouraging w

Chapter 178 Diana's POV.Lucian's grip around my neck tightened as I struggled to pull myself away from it. I stared at him from behind the mask, wondering if he would kill me upon seeing my face or not. He wasn't ready to let go, squeezing my throat strongly.“Who are you?” Lucian asked with his hand still on my throat.Arrg… arg“Let me go.” I spoke out, struggling with my words, hitting his hand continuously.I could hear gunshots everywhere, so intense that I knew everything I planned finally came to an end. Unfortunately for me, Raphael had already left before Lucian arrived. “I never thought that the one who could have the guts to kidnap my family is a female, a woman. Actually, actually I'm wondering who is behind you.”“Because there is no way a woman would dare mess with me all by herself, I did think that I brought my men to deal with a woman… what a joke.” I spoke with an angry voice.“I can't say anything; I'm shaking Let go, else I'll die.”“Can't

Chapter 177 Lucian's POV Everyone rushed out, heading to the entrance with the Mafia bosses and their men. I called Damon, Carl, and Gray to the side as they stared at me with their eyes wide open.I looked at them without saying anything. Gray looked around and turned back to me with Carl and Damon not saying anything either, although I knew very well that they were wondering why I called them.“What's going on, boss?” Gray asked curiously.“Yes, boss, you suddenly called us here separately and aren't saying anything. Is there something about the plan that you don't want others to know?” Damon asked, staring at me.I sighed.“Not really. The plan is as I have said, just a little something I need to do. I'll be going to see Lucian with him before coming to join you guys at the warehouse.” I replied, nodding my head.Carl then spoke up, asking if I intend to tell Jessica about finding out where Willow is, as he opened up that it wouldn't be a good idea, although
