Grisella's POV

He lied to me.

I looked him in the face, deep into his eyes and he still lied to me.

Oh my goodness.

I saw him with Hannah and yet he lied that he wasn't in town and he just got back that night?

Fucking pathetic.

"Something's not right" I muttered under my breath.

My mind wandered back to when I caught him on a phone call.

~ "You have a ch..challenger in the ring but because of your health, you can't." He said.

His mouth moved but his eyes didn't align to whatever he was telling me. Lies swam in his eyes. He thought he was good at hiding some certain things but he wasn't.

~ "I'm just looking out for you" He said to me

Uncle never used his business to play. Since when had he considered ones health when it comes to what'll bring in money to him?

I loved him but I couldn't also help but notice this particular flaw. No one was an exception when it concerned his money.

Not even his brother's child, me

A finger suddenly appeared in my vision, startling me. "Were you even

    "There's a DNA mismatch. I guess that theory is settled" Russo dropped the paper at my office deskI sighed heavily. "Well, that's a relief" I told him, inspecting it. "What about the other one?""It's a match" He flipped the paper for me. I massaged my temple as I inspected it. "Hmm!" I hummed."What next boss?" He cracked his fingers like he was ready to break skull."Why would Vector do this?" I tossed the paper back on the desk. "What's his motive?""Probably there's something he'd gain but why he uses a nobody is what I don't understand" Russo scratched the back of his head.Arghh!! This thing was killing me without even being physical about it."You know, I'm getting tired" I told him, truthfully."Let's go get Vector, Boss. Let's put an end to all these" Russo growled."Vector is smart enough to leave loose ends. There's a reason but I want to catch onto it before he realizes and beat him to his game" I said through gritted teeth as I glared at the wall."Whatever you say, Bo

    Grisella POVI hated the after effect of drinking It's all sweet when you're drowning down in your sorrow but then you wake up the next morning and you don't own your head anymore."Advil?" A voice asked. I stretched my hands, not minding to know who. "Hurry up. I'm dying" "The Don said you should make sure you eat and rest a lot today." Then my eyes shot open. A maid stood in front of my bedHow long had she been here?"Since the Don left" She answered. I must've said that out loud."Thanks" I smiled at her once I was done taking the drugs. "I'll be down. Please I'd like to eat something light" "As you wish, ma'am" She bowed."Wait!!" I yelled, regretting it immediately. My head panged harshly. "Where's Julian?""Business" She simply said. I nodded, waving at her dismissively.I remember calling him yesterday though I couldn't remember all we discussed. I could mostly remember me crying his arms while he comforted meI was crying. I showed weakness.It's all because of people I

    Julian's POV"We're heading to the hospital" I told Russo. "Sure" He communicated it to our driver for the day and then relaxed back on the chair.I had gotten a text from Doctor Ace that the test results were here and that I had to hurry up because it wasn't looking good.No test result from Grisella ever looked good. I should start getting used to it but I just couldn't. My heart was beating hard in my chest.If I had high blood pressure, I would've been dead by now."Are you listening to me?" "Not one bit" I said truthfully to Russo. He chuckled lowly."You're thinking about Grisella again" "I can't help it" I told him truthfully.He nodded. "I was saying that we found out who was messing with our shipment." He handed over the video to me."Of fucking course. They were two" I scoffed, shoving it back in his chest. "Confirm the ID and get back to me"Who then was - urgh! I'm so tired of playing 'find'. I hated mysterious shit.That is why I would be using my fist soon enough."I'

    Grisella's POV"I have to meet Uncle first" I said to myself, booking a ride. I didn't want to move with guards."Where are we going today, ma'am?" Cole asked from beside me. He had been assigned to me of late so I had registered his name in my head."If you're not careful, you'd be going to hell with me." I spat at him. Not a nice comeback but I was irritated. He doesn't say anything but just stood closely behind me. This only heightened my anger."I want to go alone, Calvin" I wanted him to get the message and so I called him a wrong name."I can't do that. I'm sorry" He sounded formal. "I don't need no fucking guard. Hell, I just want space. I want to be left alone to sort out my shit. Can't you do that?" I eyed him in pure disgust. He was getting on my every nerve and it wasn't fairMy lips were already trembling as I spoke. My emotions were just too much and it was getting hard to keep them in check. I bit my lips to stop it from trembling before speaking again."Please Cole, I

    Julian's POV"I'll get her blood to the lab" Doctor Ace said, locking his suitcase "Thank you. Get back to me if you find anything" I said to him, patting his shoulder."Auntie denied knowing her?" Russo spoke immediately Ace left. I sighed tiredly because I was getting tired of all these already."I asked her to be sure and she reminded me that she didn't lose her memory so I should take her words for it." I groaned, pinching the bridge of my nose. "The picture she handed over to me looked a little like Grisella. I'm confused as to Auntie's mental health now""I thought I was the only one that noticed it. The resemblance isn't much but it's there. Slightly" Russo sighed as well. "Maybe she grew too much. Maybe Auntie just can't recognize her child anymore" "We can carry out a DNA" Russo pointed, bringing out a beautiful idea."Perfect! That would work." I smiled at him, patting his shoulder "What if it doesn't match though?" Russo looked at me. I chuckled nervously. "Then it'll

    Grisella's POV "What's the occasion?" I smiled, looking up at Julian who patted my hair as his other hand wrapped around my waist."I told you I'd help you. You just had to trust me" He brushed his thumb on my cheek. I drew my eyebrow together at him. He was talking in parables again"What are you? You now speak so much in parables" I shook my head, slapping his chest playfully, pushing him away too."You will get your answers today though. After you can ask me anything" He smiled at me. "What do you meannnn?" I drew out frustratedly. He wasn't making any sense to meI was getting nervous. My heart was beating in an unusual way."You'll understand" He pecked my forehead. "My supplier would be bringing in my drugs. Please tell your men to let them in since we wouldn't be around" I told him. His jaw ticked as his eyes suddenly went dark."Your drugs" He repeated"Uhh...""Who's your supplier?" He asked authoritatively. I jerked slightly at his tone but answered anyway."I... Uncle V
