Jennifer's POVFor Some reason, I was heartbroken hearing all that. That was expected from someone who was part of the Mafia organization and didn't regard women. That was all he saw me as, I was the cheap whore who sold myself so cheap and he saw me naked.I ran my hand through my hair as the conversation that I overheard with Rodrigo echoed through my head. I had no clue that he thought so little of me. For that moment we were making out, I felt something different, I have never given myself to any man like that, yet, I had it all to him without blinking an eye. How can he do all that to me? Shawn was my boyfriend and I know that he is mad at me right now but I am going to get him back, I cannot do without him. He was the best man for me, how could I even be with the Same man who hurt my brother. Lowering my bag on the table, I headed toward the fridge and took out a bottle of wine. That was the only thing that could calm my nerves at least for a while. Opening the wine, I poured
Marcello's POVThis woman seemed to be playing games with me, she had no clue ever since I tasted her, I haven't been able to get her out of my head even for a moment. No other woman can be able to fill the space that she occupies."What?""Break up with your boyfriend or I will help you break up with him and you won't like my way""You are out of your mind if you think that I will ever listen to you" Jennifer was adamant on her words. However, she has not realized that she cannot win over me. There was no way she was going to continue this relationship with Shawn, she was going to break up with him right before my eyes and she knows that."Do you want to bet on that?" I arched up my brow at her. She was scared, a part of her already knew that I was not bluffing but this woman would choose to be stubborn rather than to listen to any word that I said."I have no time for your useless games now leave!""Break up with him in one week or you won't like my style, I am warning You"Anger su
Isabella's POVThe dinner party was fast approaching and everyone In the family got ready Grandmother can be very lenient but she is not the sort of woman who is to be underestimated by anyone.Standing in front of the mirror, I stood in front of the mirror admiring Myself. Truly, I am beautiful, nevertheless, before I can get a chance to admire myself completely, I was stopped by the presence Of Don Rodrigo as he entered the room, leaning against the wall, he gawked at me. The memory of last night flashed through my mind, Don Rodrigo was handsome and any other woman would fall for his looks but I would not, not when I have Maxwell, I was hoping to talk to Jennifer and tell her about him so that I can use her phone to reach him. "You look beautiful"That was a compliment yet I didn't bother saying a word to him as I stared at him through the mirror."That was a compliment" He whispered approaching me, every step he took cast a stranger feeling across my body. It wasn't just fear, a
Marcello's POV"What are you doing here, you fucker?""Language, you should mind what you say especially as the old lady is coming around here tonight""Shut your mouth and leave my room""I wouldn't be here if it wasn't serious""I don't care, I want nothing from you and owe you nothing, Just in case you don't know I hate you the most, and now, I detest you after what you did to Jennifer""You don't have to hate me, you know," I said, trying to soothe her heart. I already knew that she was going to hate me the most. She had a soft spot for Juan Carlos until he pointed his gun at her that day she held her gun at Rodrigo and me."Give me a reason why I shouldn't hate you, You are the one who made my family this way and put me through hell" She blamed me for everything but it wasn't just on me. "Don't blame me, You have to blame yourself for being too beautiful and not me alright"That was the truth, it was her beauty that caught Don's attention. When Don saw her portrait, he didn't bo
Rodrigo's POVWhen I saw Marcello dragging Jennifer away from the hall, I wanted to chase after them. However, the beautiful woman coming down the stairs caught everyone's attention, her gaze not parting from me. It felt as though she was calling out to me to be her escort and I wanted that as out, For the first time in a long while, I felt my heart skip. Many have always assumed that I had no heart and, to be honest, I thought as much as well until I watched her dance. That day changed everything for me. "Isabella" I mumbled under my breath when my eyes fell on some men ogling her. That made my blood boil, her black gown was beautiful and sexy but it revealed a little too much. As if sensing that someone was looking at them, one of the men looked my way. When his eyes locked together with me, his eyes widened and he tapped on his other two idiot friends. They wanted her, they wanted to take her to bed and that hurts."Those morons" anger seeped through me and I just wanted to take
Jennifer's POV"Let me go, let me go now" I finally yanked my hand out of his grip."You are really testing my patience" I don't know what his problem is. He was acting like a caveman man and I hated that. However, I enjoyed my time with him the other night and haven't been able to get him out of my mind ever since that night. He was really pushing it, I intend to have fun tonight, meet new people, and socialize. This might be a great opportunity for me before I head over to meet up with Shawn. I might spend the night over at his place since he was cooking."Get out of my way so that I can head inside""You heard her, get out of her way now!" That familiar caught my ear and I turned around only to see Juan Carlos standing behind him, his eyes bloodshot. I rolled my eyes, another one of them that I had to contend with. I don't know what was going on here, especially between the both of the
Marcello's POVWhen I heard that familiar voice behind us, my eyes widened but that couldn't stop me from throwing another punch at Juan Carlos, reminding him that I meant every word I had said that night. I am not ready to share anyone especially not Jennifer. She was almost breaking into tears as she looked at us. There were no emotions in my eyes as I liked Juan Carlos.However, as I looked at Jennifer, she was almost losing her mind. "I already told you that Jennifer is mine and I won't share her with anyone, especially not you""You are not good for her, she is mine!" He threw a blow at me attempting to throw another blow at me when I pulled at my gun and pointed it at him. Jennifer's eyes widened and she quickly jumped right inBetween us, the same time that Patricia ordered her men to hold us off. "Let me go" I barked at the man ready to blow his brains out if it wasn't for Jennifer who stood in the way. "What are you even doing?" Tears dropped on her cheeks. I could tell th
Isabella's POVRodrigo glared at me but before he could get a chance to act, he was distracted by some group of men who I assumed were part of his organization or a rival group. "Tell me what is wrong with him?" That was Jennifer, she was raging as she drew closer to me. With a single look in her eyes, I knew that there was something wrong with her. This was not her usual way, she wasn't one of those people who would want to stand and gulp down two glasses of champagne just to calm her nerves. "What is wrong with you?" I asked and took the glass away from her. When she attempted to grab another drink from the waiter, I quickly grabbed the drink. "Are you trying to get drunk?""I would rather get drunk and forget than do this right now" "Do what?" I was confused and for a moment, I thought that I should push aside the thought of having and find out what was wrong with her. Marcello was a bastard and probably wanted to get even for some reason I know nothing about. Though I couldn't
