From earlier on our trip home to the mansion, he was quiet; it was so peaceful inside the car. He still didn't speak until we walked through the mansion's wide living room and climbed the glittering staircase. I only heard the sound of our steps, but no words were uttered by my jealous husband.

“Come inside now, Valerie,” he said coldly.

Finally, he said words. I walked inside the room and passed by him, facing the quiet bed.

The sound of the door closing was soft. I was surprised because of his behavior. He was gentle in his actions, something that made me think that it was really refreshing.

I thought he was going to yell at me again now or he was going to hurt me physically. But that was not what he did, because he just showed me his very cold treatment.

I disdained to face him and stare into his eyes. Only half of his face was covered with a gray and luxurious mask. The tip of his pointed nose was sticking out, and I could see his pink lips.

There was a storm raging inside of h

  • Dictated Wife Of The Modern Cupid   Chapter 93

    Auntie went to her company building early. Foval and I were left with many guards. No one knows that we are here at Auntie's mansion, but we are still doubly careful. Mommy and Daddy didn't know we were here. What I told Eli is that we will go straight to my parents when we get to Texas. But I felt something strange so I decided to come to Auntie. If Signor Eldifonso uses us as bait so that Eli will come to him voluntarily, I'm sure he will find us at my parents' house. Mom and Dad's lives are quiet now, I don't want them to be involved in this mess. Because Auntie is used to this life, chaotic and full of thrills that's why I am here with my son. Auntie also wanted Foval and I to stay here. She said we will hide here, and here we will wait for Eli, she can protect us better that way. I heard someone knocking outside the door so I got down from the bed and immediately opened the door for the person outside. I saw one of the maids in the mansion standing in front of the door, she wa

    -Valerie Wills-The round moon looked out at me while the stars beside it were like ornaments laid out, shining and unceasing in giving life to the skies. I gripped the veranda rail tightly, thinking about Eli's situation. I know that I haven't completely forgiven him and I don't know when the wound in my heart that he created will heal, but I won't lie about my feelings: I'm worried for him. Ever since Foval and I got back to Texas I couldn't sleep well because of my worries. Even though the wound he gave to my heart was big, he showed me that he was sorry. Apart from that, I saw the care and love he had for Foval. I often say to myself that I should be like Eli when it comes to playing the role of a parent to a child. He's not just a kind father, he's also a father who knows when it comes to raising a child, reminding Foval to have fear of parents and respect for other people. I want to learn to put myself aside, for our son. Something that Eli showed me. I heard the sound of Aun

    The men assemble their guns. I didn't think there were so many of them. Martin sent a hundred of them, they said they did not include the twenty men who were outside, scouting, in case there were any suspicious people. I was in the garden of the house, thinking that I can't escape this life. I heard one of the men clear his throat behind me. I turned to him and saw his face. Lee's face hasn't changed, it's still cool and reliable. "What are you doing here, Sir? You don't need to look after your garden. It's our job to do it.""Lee, that's not what I'm doing. I just want to get some fresh air. Staying in a room is boring. It's also good here because I can think properly.""Sir, what's going on in your mind right now? You can put aside your shyness and we can discuss to make you feel better."I sighed, swallowing. I went to a long chair and Lee followed. We were sitting next to each other but at a distance from each other. We propped ourselves up on our knees with our elbows almost at

    Amia arrived home, I let her in and made sure no one saw her. We both went straight to the living room. My attention was focused on the two suitcases she was carrying. The matte black suitcase was familiar to me, I was sure it was mine. That's where I put the guns that I use in heavy clashes. "Amia, it's good that you arrived safely. It's also good that no one followed you! I was worried until you were here.""Martin made sure that no one in the mansion would doubt our actions, especially mine, Sir. The reason we told them was the passing of my cousin on my mother's side. Fortunately, Signor Eldifonso allowed me to leave the mansion even if only temporarily.""Thank God for that, Amia." I kept looking at the familiar suitcase. "Your black suitcase, Amia. Am I right, it's mine?"She nodded. She stood up from her seat and brought the suitcase towards me. "You're right, Sir. You are the owner of this suitcase.""Amusing, Amia! It's good that it was undetected that it's full of guns and

    A more deafening silence enveloped the whole house, especially when I decided to have the maids move out from the house temporarily. I don't want to when there's a conflict here, both of them will be in danger. It will be more difficult for me to move if Signor Eldifonso's forces attack me if I am with someone here. It is also an advantage that I don't think about saving anyone but myself in case that old man will come here to slaughter me. "All this will end," I said to my own reflection in the human size mirror in front of me. "I hope so," I answered as if I was a fool, talking to myself.My eyes hit the bed surface's reflection inside the mirror. My mind remembered the happy moments Val and I had together on the bed. Now that I was about to sleep I was enveloped in a suffocating sadness. I felt an unceasing longing for my dear Val and my son Foval. However I have to endure everything. I have to carry in my heart for a while the heavy feelings, the bereavement, and the depression,

    “I need you,” I said, begging him.“Just tell me whatever you need from me, Sir. I am willing to help with everything I can,” Martin said from the other line.I closed my eyes, nodding.“Oh, Martin, I thought you forgot me already.”“How can I forget someone who became my lord.”“Martin, Signor knew that I am alive. And I am frightened that he might harm Val and our son. They will arrive in Texas tomorrow. I want to ask a favor from you regarding this thing. P-Please watch over them, but do not let anyone knew that they are in Texas.”“Sir, how about you?”“Don’t worry about me. I will handle the situation well. IF that Signor won’t be easy on me, then I will welcome his anger. I learned a lot during my pretentious days under his nest. Surely, those lessons won’t put me down.”“Sir, I will let our men come to you and help you.”“That’s better, Martin.”I maybe not as powerful as Signor Eldifonso, and I only have few subjects, yet I know they are true to me. This is enough to fight aga
