Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY EIGHT
Elise's eyes widened in shock when she heard the amount her mother was demanding.Twenty-five million dollars?She stared at the woman in disbelief, unable to comprehend how her own mother could demand such an outrageous sum in exchange for leaving her alone. She opened her mouth to speak, but Lorenzo stopped her."It's okay," he whispered reassuringly.He waited until Elise fell silent before turning back to her mother."Are you promising that if I give you twenty-five million dollars, you'll stay away from Elise forever?"The woman's eyes lit up."Yes! Of course!" she answered quickly, nodding her head. "Just give me the money, and you'll never see me again. Whatever happens to her life after that is none of my business."Lorenzo studied her face for a moment before nodding.Then, to Elise's surprise, he slowly removed the expensive wristwatch from his wrist and held it out to the woman.She stared at him in confusion before shifting her gaze to the watch."What is this?" she asked

After taking a cold shower, Lorenzo lay on his bed with his face buried in his pillow.He couldn't stop thinking about everything that had happened. Memories of the past kept replaying in his mind, each one torturing him all over again. No matter how hard he tried to push them away, they refused to leave him alone.Just then, his phone rang. He sighed and slowly picked it up without checking the caller ID."It's me, Pascal," the man said urgently. "I just dropped Elise off and was about to leave when I noticed an elderly woman outside. It looks like they're having an altercation and the woman is hitting her. I thought you should know…I'll send you the address."Before Lorenzo could respond, the call ended.He immediately sprang out of bed, grabbed his jacket, and rushed out of the mansion. By the time he received the address, he was already in his car.He started the engine and sped toward the location, barely paying attention to the red lights he passed along the way. All he could th

Hearing Lorenzo's words, Raina's heart clenched painfully. She felt tears gathering in her eyes as she looked at her brother.She gently held his face between her hands."Lorenzo, look at me."He slowly raised his head and met her eyes."Nothing like that is ever going to happen again. What happened back then was all because of our evil uncle, Maxwell. But he's dead now and he can't hurt you anymore, and he definitely can't take anyone else away from you."Lorenzo nodded slowly, but the pain in his eyes remained."You know what?" he said quietly. "I still have nightmares about that day. I still see her face whenever I close my eyes, and no matter how hard I try, I can't forget what happened."He swallowed hard, his voice growing heavier with emotion."I don't want anything like that to happen again…I really don't. I want this baby, Raina. I want the child so badly, and I hope Elise decides to keep it."He paused, looking down at his hands."If she does, I'll take responsibility for bo

Lorenzo stared at Raina in shock."Elise is pregnant with your child."Her words kept echoing in his head, and for several seconds, he couldn't bring himself to speak.Slowly, he turned to look at Elise, hoping she would confirm or deny what Raina had just said.However, Elise refused to meet his eyes. She kept her head lowered, tears streaming down her face.Lorenzo's heart sank.He had never imagined that things would become this complicated.Michael, on the other hand, was secretly happy despite the circumstances surrounding the pregnancy. The thought of finally having another heir in the Valente family filled him with excitement.However, when he noticed Elise's reaction, he quickly suppressed his happiness.He couldn't celebrate a pregnancy that had brought so much pain to the woman carrying the child. Besides, he had no intention of forcing Elise to keep a baby she wasn't ready for."Of course, the decision to keep the baby or terminate the pregnancy is entirely yours, Elise," R

Upon hearing Lorenzo's name, Raina stood frozen for several seconds, staring at Elise in disbelief.Elise misunderstood her silence. Thinking Raina didn't believe her, she burst into tears and turned to leave.However, Raina caught her hand again."Elise, you have no reason to lie to me about my brother being the person who took advantage of you. I believe you. What I don't understand is why he would do such a thing. How could he do something so disgraceful and shameful?"Raina tightened her hold on Elise's hand."Come with me, Elise. You're coming with me to the Valente mansion. My brother will give you an explanation today. I want to hear it from him myself."Elise immediately shook her head in panic."No, Raina! Please, I don't want to go back there!""Elise—""Please, don't make me go back!" she begged. "It took so much for me to escape from that mansion. I don't want to return there. I don't want to have anything to do with that family anymore."Tears streamed down her face as sh

“Is something wrong?” Maxton asked with a deep frown and the doctor jumped in fear.“No..nothing Sir” She quickly shook her and replied with a little stutter.On seeing her reaction, Maxton became even more certain that something was wrong and he clenched his fists.“Calm down, dear. Let the doctor do her work and she will definitely tell us if something is wrong” Raina said with a small smile, despite being anxious herself.Maxton took a deep breath and held Raina's hand. Then he kissed her forehead and leaned down to whisper in her ear.“I am calm, my love…I am calm” he whispered, but when he turned to look at the doctor, his gaze hardened again. Causing the poor woman to tremble in fear.“It's really nothing Don Retroferd, I just noticed something during the check up, that's why I reacted that way” the Doctor explained with an apologetic tone.“What did you notice?” Maxton asked, his voice was filled with impatience despite trying to control it.“I noticed that there where two hear

The morning of the wedding arrived quickly. For forty-eight hours, Raina had been a prisoner in her own bedroom, the four walls closing in on her until the air felt thin and toxic. She hadn't slept or eaten the bland meals the guards slid through the door. She felt exhausted, her body aching from
