INICIAR SESIÓNLyvanne’s POV…
While a thousand things and one thing were running through my mind…then…something strange happened. The gun was no longer pointed at the two of us, but at Matteo alone. Matteo froze in place, speechless and lost. “Kareem,” Matteo said calmly. “You’re making a big mistake.” Despite hearing that, Kareem’s face was emotionless as if Matteo’s words didn't reach his ears. “No, sir,” hLyvanne’s POV… While a thousand things and one thing were running through my mind…then…something strange happened. The gun was no longer pointed at the two of us, but at Matteo alone. Matteo froze in place, speechless and lost. “Kareem,” Matteo said calmly. “You’re making a big mistake.” Despite hearing that, Kareem’s face was emotionless as if Matteo’s words didn't reach his ears. “No, sir,” he replied quietly. “You did.” My brows furrowed, trying to understand what Kareem meant. “Step away from her,” Kareem ordered. “I’m not here for her, but you, Matteo. You have no right to be alive until now. You claimed Bernard’s life because he was going to expose you.” “Watch your words, Kareem,” Matteo countered. “I didn't kill him. They did…” “Of course, they did as you will always say,” Kareem chuckled. “If only people knew that yo
Lyvanne's POV… The room felt suffocating all of a sudden. It was as if the four corners of the office were closing. At this point, I'm lost if I should be concerned about him or his family. I truly understand why he agreed to do this, but taking my life isn't worth it. I gently lifted my head up, facing the ceiling with my eyes completely closed, my arms folded above my chest, looking so confused. Who could this person be? Could it be Alexander's girlfriend responsible? Could it be…damn, no. I shook my head, lowering my gaze to Mateo. Looking at the same man who was asked to eliminate me, my mind didn't allow me to see him as an enemy anymore. Mateo was lost in thought, and I was certain he was thinking of the best way to handle this without his family being affected. It was obvious. Sighing in deep relief, I brought the atmosphere back to life. “You think they won’t kill you anyway?” I asked, fear setting in. A faint, broken smile appeared on his face as he nodded his he
Lyvanne’s POV…“And who is this person?” I finally asked, eagerly anticipating his response.He shook his head slowly and then turned around and faced me. “No, Lyvanne,” his response finally escaped his mouth, showing no trace of jokes.He wasn't ready to reveal who it was. Nice.“Matteo,” I called, hoping for a change of mind, but I got it wrong.“No,” he insisted.“You owe me that much!” I spat, pointing my index finger at him. His expression hardened as he closed the space between us. His eyes narrowed, never leaving me.“I owe you nothing,” he growled in response.Silence ruled between us for a while, the atmosphere becoming more intense than before. I didn't see this coming.“They promised you something, didn’t they?” I finally broke the silence that was taking time to end.He was stunned into silence upon hearing my words. His suspicious gaze scanned through my eyes to find out how I got this information, but did anyone tell me that? Nope, but I was certain he wasn't working f

Lyvanne's POV...And the message read as:“Benard wasn’t the problem. Matteo is.”My blood ran cold immediately after I read the message. I remained still for what seemed like ages intensively staring at my phone screen. I should have known from the beginning.Unfortunately, as I was still fighting hard trying to digest the message, another one came in. And it said:“Check Benard's CCTV footage from 2:13 a.m. last night. Deleted, but not erased.”Now everything was getting clearer, but my question is, how did Rovan manage to get all this information? Hmm…well, that should be a topic to discuss with him later. For now, let's end the one at hand.Lifting my head slowly, I looked at the far end of the corridor, and I saw Officer Kareem standing watching me.However, when our eyes met… He quickly looked away. Upon seeing that, then I was certain he wasn't clean as well. To me everyone around here is a suspect.As I sighed in deep relief thinking of my next move, the message on my phone f
His words hit like a physical blow. My body went rigid, my eyes wide and unblinking like a statue. I couldn't say a single word. “Are you there?” Matteo called, but I didn't respond.I couldn't believe my ears. It might take me hours to process such news. “How…How did it happen?” I finally used the last strength I had and asked. “Gunshot wounds,” his response came almost immediately. “Execution style and no signs of struggle.”“Execution?” I gasped.My breathing turned shallow suddenly. Whoever was pulling the strings didn’t hesitate.“Yes, execution,” Matteo confirmed.“Any witnesses?” I inquired.“No,” he explained. “Not yet.”“Cameras?”“Disabled.”Of course they were. The people who carried out the operations knew exactly what they were doing.“Where is the other officer?” I asked slowly.“What other officer?” Matteo asked, confused.I froze a
(Lyvanne’s POV)I stopped abruptly when I saw Matteo.The moment our eyes locked outside the hotel entrance, my pulse quickened. How did he know I’d be here? There was no way it was a coincidence. With Matteo, everything felt orchestrated. His approach was smooth,
The atmosphere felt stifling, as if the air itself was constricting around me. My heart pounded with anxiety, our faces mere inches apart. "You seem tense. Do you miss me?" Alexander's voice sliced through the silence. I chose to ignore him, fully aware that I wanted nothing to do with someone wh
The clicks of a camera shutter followed me as soon as the door of my vehicle opened. Being a renowned figure was a big achievement for me. It reminded me of the sweaty days and troubled nights I’d sacrificed to ensure I got back on my feet…on my own.I’d spent two years in jail for a crime I neve
The doors of the cell opened. “You have a visitor.” The female officer announced to me. I didn’t say anything, just stood and followed her to the room where prisoners received guests. There was Alex waiting for me. I took the bench opposite him, the female officer gave us privacy to talk but w
