"What are you doing serving breakfast alone? Where's Miss Marisa?" Mili asked, her brows slightly furrowed as she watched Willa move briskly around the dining table, balancing a tray with no one in sight to assist her.

Willa let out a breathless laugh, the kind that carried more irony than amusement. "Miss Marisa was middle-aged, milady... she believed selling the gemstone you gifted her would be more than enough for the rest of her life."

  • His Ensnared Innocence   124| The turning point

    • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Tulip couldn't keep up with Nacho's pace. Before she reached the doorway, the heavy metal door slammed shut once again. The lock clicked from outside. "Nacho!" she screamed while rushing toward it. "Open the door! Please!" The fading sound of his footsteps echoed farther and farther down the narrow corridor until it disappeared. Tulip kept banging on the door and begging until her palms turned sore and her voice became hoarse. Though, nothing but the silence answered her pleas. Meanwhile, in that hall, Mili was unable to stop staring at the rough ropes around her wrists. Now and then she could feel Daniel's shoulder brushing lightly against hers while the vile profanities of the men surrounding them rang in her ears. Yet she had never felt farther away from him. Her eyes cautiously drifted toward him again and again. Daniel wasn't looking at her. His attention remained fixed on the older men talking about his destruction.

Nacho walked inside quickly only to freeze for a second after noticing her standing near the entrance already trying to undo the latch from inside. His expression immediately hardened with concern. "What were you trying to do?" he demanded sharply. Before Tulip could properly answer, Nacho grabbed her wrist and pulled her further toward the middle of the room. Tulip stumbled slightly while trying to keep up with his pace. Her other hand instinctively held her stomach protectively as discomfort crossed her face immediately. "Nacho-" she breathed out painfully. "You're hurting me." Only then did he loosen his grip slightly. Tulip looked at him being nervous. "I heard voices from outside," she whispered, "What's happening here?" "Nothing," Nacho replied instantly. "You don't need to involve yo

    • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Nacho returned to the massive hall in unhurried steps while the atmosphere inside grew heavier with every passing second. Nobody spoke to him immediately after his arrival. The moments of silence themselves felt cruel. Mili remained seated on the cold floor beside Daniel with her restrained hands trembling faintly against her lap. She could feel the warmth of Daniel's bruised shoulder beside her, but Daniel hadn't looked at her properly since she was dragged there beside him. And somehow that hurt far more than the ropes cutting into her wrists. He must be... actually he should be very angry at her stupidity. But, Mili was glad that she was here, she was beside him! When Mili finally dared to raise her eyes toward him again, Daniel was already staring at her. There was no softness in his face for her. Only anger... frustration... and something else buried underneath that shattered her heart completely - Disappointment. Mil

Inside the tiny room, Tulip probably still believed he was coming back for her like a prince charming. The thought almost made him laugh. Poor Tulip! How could she still be this naive after so many years in the Romano estate? Even now she had no understanding of the kind of man she had fallen in love with. She still looked at him with softness in her eyes. Still trusted him enough to follow whatever path he showed her without question. And tonight, that blind trust had become useful to him more than ever. After all, she was the one who unknowingly brought Miliani Knight directly into the middle of destruction along with Lucia, who was none other than the daughter of Daniel's closest ally. Nacho slowly started walking back toward the larger warehouse hall without making any sound while his hands slipped

    • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Sharpness dimmed in his orbs the moment they landed on Mili. For one fractured second, Daniel looked almost disbelieving, as though his mind refused to accept that the love of his life was truly standing there. Then his jaw tightened violently. Frustration darkened his bruised face while helpless fury burned beneath it. "Daniel-" The gasp that escaped her was shaky. Without thinking further, Mili rushed toward him, not caring about the atmosphere surrounding them. Her knees hit the cold ground harshly as she bent beside him and immediately cupped his face between her trembling hands. Up close, the sight of him looked worse. Blood stained the side of his shirt while bruises shadowed his face and jaw. Yet his eyes remained terrifyingly alive. "W-What's happening?" she whispered breathlessly. "Who did this to you?" Daniel didn't answer. His chest rose sharply as he lifted his gaze past her shoulder. Confused, Mili slowly tur

    • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • The word cracked through the room like a whip. "Lucia…" Mili tried to stop her before it was too late. But Lucia didn't look at Mili for once. Her gaze remained locked on Tulip. "You really thought you could sit here and twist things like this?" Lucia continued. Her voice was lower now but far more cutting as she claimed, "You knew what Jovanno was up to. Don't even try to deny it." Tulip's lips parted, but no words came out. The colour had drained from her face. The accusation hung heavy in the room. Mili's eyes shifted between them as confusion rose painfully inside her chest once again. "Lucia… what are you even saying?" she questioned softly. Lucia finally looked at her then. "I'm saying," she replied, "that nothing about this is as simple as it looks." "No…" Tulip whispered, shaking her head weakly. "That's not true. I would never do anything like that to anyone!" "I'm not saying you planned it," Lucia interrupte
