ELSIE’S POV~

The violence of the ground beneath me shook me awake and I blinked my eyes open.

The next thing I heard was the sound of a woman.

“Please fasten your seat belt”

I blinked again, where am I?

I protected my eyes from the light, and I sat up slowly, I looked around, eyes looked back at me.

“Are you okay Pearlita?” his calm voice asked, I blinked again and looked up at him.

“Yeah,” I finally said, my voice was faint and I looked up and it was Nico.

“Where am I?” I inquired, looking around, “in my private jet” he replied touching my face softly, I sighed.

I sat up completely, and looked around I was looking around, “Oh my God Kiko! What happened to her how did I get here?”

Nico retracted into his seat, “I'm sorry, but we couldn't save her” I heard Tony say from behind me.

“Is she…” my voice went cold, “yeah, she’s dead pearl, Kenji killed her, and took the baby with him” Nico completed.

August was by my side as usual; he never left my side, not for one day.“Are you ready?” he asked, kissing my lips gently.I shivered under his touch. “Yeah, I am,” I smiled.“You don't have to do it if you don't want to,” he smiled back.“How are you okay with all of this, August? I'm a married woman with a baby on the way. It feels too good to be true,” I said, touching his long hair.All he did was look at me intensely and smile.“I'm not worried about anything; as long as we are together, I'm fine,” he said.“Oh August, I honestly don't deserve you,” I continued before touching his face.But all I wanted to hear at that moment was Pearlita…He took my hand and helped me up. He looked at me and he was awestruck. “You look so stunning, Pearl, so beautiful. Are you ready for your first debut?

She looked furious, bloodthirsty anger surged through her, and Sophia looked scared.“Can we talk in the hallway you are scaring her” I always felt uneasy in hospitals because there was too much quietness for such painful places. With my palm lying over my bloated stomach, I strolled alone across the clean hallway. Kira was in a downward spiral about something, something I had no hand in.“What the hell are you talking about Akira?” I asked.She scoffed “back to formalities now are we?” she asked, “you are scaring my child,” I retorted.“Which of them because from the look of things you and Nico have been busy” she spat.“Why are you here Kira? You wanted nothing to do with me, remember? So why are you here?”“Did you rat me out to Kenji?” she asked. I was shocked by her statement, “how the h

This was his usual shenanigans, and I wasn't up for it.I turned to leave when I noticed a black sedan heading in my direction. I stopped and waited, hoping it was my sleek consigliere driving towards me.The car stopped in front of me, and he got out. He wore a black suit with a pink tie. I sighed. Something about him will always tick me off.“Hi, boss,” he greeted before extending an arm to me. “Adam, you said it was urgent? What the hell is so urgent that you couldnt tell me over the phone” Someone like Adam shouldn't have been noticed in the alley behind La Rue d'Or. His smell was too refined, his outfit too immaculate. However, he remained unflinching when the shadows shifted and I appeared like a menacing specter dressed in pricey wool."You're late to your own fucking meeting, Adam!" I stated in a foreboding tone.Adam looked at his timepiece. "No, I'm not. You simply lack patienc

    Pearl's POV~They say Grief only knows how to wear black. I said, Fuck it, and I decided to go with red.It was audacious, and people whispered before I had uttered a word, their eyes pressed on the slippery silk that hugged every curve. A pageant launch wasn't usually held at a funeral, but I wasn't your average widow. Camille was aware that Nico wasn't dead. But she was willing to take that chance to see him one last time if, truly, she was obsessed with him.Throwing my husband a funeral despite knowing he was alive would make her curious enough to know if Nico is truly dead.The headlines were already half written: *CEO Widow Honors Late Husband Nicolas D’Angelo. It was part trap and part theater. "Pearl," Adam called from beside me, adjusting the gold-trimmed suit I had asked him to wear. "This feels insane," he criticized with a shake of his head."That's the idea," I replied with a gentle smile, pinning a crimson carnation to his lapel. "We need Camille to feel comfortabl

    Pearl’s pov~I saw him finally reach for the phone, and the video ended.It was like I was in a trance of some sort after that; soon after, Angelo came in, distracting my thoughts.I was both a priest and a sinner, and I gazed at the screen as though it were a confession booth.Nico's raw, gruff, and remorseful voice blasted through the speakers. Not the smirking, smooth-talking businessman that unnerved everyone. This man was losing his mind.“Pearl, are you ready? They are really calling for your head in there. You have to do or say something to dissuade them. I don't think I can hold them off for too long,” he mentioned before coming closer. “Are you okay? Is it Nico again?” he asked. I saw his hands leaning close to the laptop, and I shut it down.“No, it's nothing, just stunned,” I replied with a nod. “Just a little shaken from the row I'm about to face. With Logan there, who knows how it will turn out? He has been surprisingly calm,” I replied, distracting him from the video.He
