As Jude looked at the children, an idea formed in his mind.

Now that he had ordered Roman to carry out a DNA test, he would need to get their samples. But he couldn’t let Cecilia know until...until he was sure.

“Hey guys, have you seen the city's festival?”

The twins looked at each other with wide eyes.

“No!” They said simultaneously.

Jude had an idea. “I’ll take you guys there.”

It would be an opportunity for Roman to take their DNA samples.

The twins were immediately on board wih the idea

  • Poison me softly    Chapter 105: Getting Her Revenge

    Brittany sat comfortably inside her private sitting room while her private investigator stood several feet away, reading from a tablet.The room was quiet except for his voice and the occasional tapping of Brittany's fingernails against the armrest of her chair."The report is complete."Brittany lifted her eyes from the magazine resting on her lap. "Go on.""We confirmed the children's birthday."She remained silent."They recently turned four years old."That immediately got her attention. The magazine slowly lowered.The man continued speaking. "We also spent weeks looking into Cecilia's history after she disappeared. We couldn't find evidence of another relationship. No boyfriend. No husband. No records showing she lived with another man. No social media activity suggesting she was involved with anyone."Brittany listened carefully.For the first time since the report began, she seemed genuinely interested. He finally found something useful. The man scrolled further down the fil

    As Jude looked at the children, an idea formed in his mind. Now that he had ordered Roman to carry out a DNA test, he would need to get their samples. But he couldn’t let Cecilia know until...until he was sure.“Hey guys, have you seen the city's festival?”The twins looked at each other with wide eyes. “No!” They said simultaneously. Jude had an idea. “I’ll take you guys there.”It would be an opportunity for Roman to take their DNA samples. The twins were immediately on board wih the idea. But they only had one drawback. “But, we have to ask mum first..” Alex said.Allison nodded reluctantly. “Yeah. We can’t go unless we ask her.”Jude nodded and realised they were quite smart. And he couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride, before he told himself to get it together.Nothing had been confirmed yet.***Jude headed toward Cecilia’s room.The closer he got, the more his thoughts drifted back toward Roman’s words, and he did his darn best not to let his thoughts show.By the time

  • Poison me softly    Chapter 103: Impossible Possibility

    Jude stared at the documents spread across his desk while several security reports remained open on the monitors surrounding him.The masked auction was tomorrow night.Normally, preparations for the annual event would have been delegated to other people. He had enough men capable of handling logistics, security, guest verification, and every other detail involved.This year was different.This year D’Angelo's were walking straight into the trap he had spent years building.His fingers tapped slowly against the desk as he reviewed the final security layout.The auction would be held at the mansion.Every guest would be screened. Every entrance monitored. Every room secured.By tomorrow night, dozens of powerful people would be under one roof.And if everything went according to plan, Brittany’s family would leave completely ruined. It was unfortunate that he wasn’t inviting her to see for herself. A knock sounded against the office door.“Come in.”Roman entered carrying a tablet ben

    CECILIA’S POVMae worked hard, coding the online funnel that we would use to frame the person Dr. Venom was targeting. While I planned the strategy of how I’d get unto the auction and put, based on all Mae remembered about the annual masked auction.“I don’t know who the current head of the inner circle is, but it’s going to be held there.” She said, eyes still focused on her computer.“Is it possible we can just find out on Google?” I asked.She laughed, and shook her head. “Then the government would also know to.”I sighed and turned my eyes to the mask I was sewing for auction. I had asked some servants for materials and equipment, and gave the excuse that I wanted to patch up some of the clothes for the kids.I realised, since this was a thing for mafia families, there was a huge chance that Jude would attend it. I didn’t need him to hear I was stitching up a mask, and have him putting two and two together. “What if it’s happening miles away from here?” I asked, even though I wa

  • Poison me softly    Chapter 101: It's Only Right

    Miles away from Jude’s penthouse, in the heart if the city, was the D'Angelo's family house. In the lounge, Brittany sat cross-legged, tapping away instructions to one of her men. It was an assassin she sent to kill the man who she has sent after Cecilia. It had taken great lengths to find Jude’s location. But she had successfully found his hidden penthouse. She read the message the assassin had sent:[The target has been eliminated]A smile of satisfaction graced her lips, as she typed out.[Excellent]Across from her Benjamin pocketed his phone with a sigh, then glared at his sister. “What’s making your wicked soul happy? Did someone die?” He sneered.She chuckled, her eyes looking over him with coldness. “In fact, someone actually did.”Benjamin made a face like he’d swallowed something sour. “You say it like you’re proud of it.”“I am proud of it.” She said simply. “Pride is the natural reaction to doing your job well.” She wasn’t going to let him know she was after Jude and

  • Poison me softly    Chapter 100: Look like A Family

    The countdown of seven days to the auction, loomed over my head. I anxiously waited as the days passed. I noticed Jude came around often to be with the twins. Despite how much I tried to prevent it, he kept on worming his way into moments with them. When they were eating breakfast, he sat at the table. When they were outside playing, he would join them when they asked. Before he went out, he asked to see them. It wasn’t just frustrating me, but also torturing my mind. Each time I saw Alex clinging to his leg, or Allison laughing at him, it made my stomach churn. I’d began to question my decision.Was it right to keep the kids from having a father? Right now, they were young and hadn’t asked any questions. But what about when they got older? What if they grew to resent me from hiding them from their father. Beside me, Mae appeared on the balcony. She must’ve seen the tension on my face, because she squeezed my shoulder supportively.“It’s overwhelming to see them like this right?”

    “I am saying, that my wife is trying to kill me.”When Jude says this, I feel my heart rate pick up. Rationally, I know that Jude isn’t accusing me or connecting his theory to me. But I still break out into a cold sweat.“Why would you think so?” I try to keep the nervousness out of my voice. “Why

    “Oh Martinez, you’re screwed today!”The man laughs, as the cars all come to a stop, forming a loose circle around us. My grip on the gun tightens, even as I realise how useless it’s going to be against the men stepping out of the cats holding their ammunition. “Mr. Martinez...Just as I’m about

    Someone was following us?Instinctively I remember the second message I’d received this morning.“Get out of that house before you’re in danger.”Wasn’t this what the person was talking about? I turn in my seat and notice a black car two vehicles behind us. As Jude speeds up, it follows steadily.

    Roman’s words make an alarm ring in my mind.He glares at me one final time, before setting his mug in the sink and walking out. I stand in the kitchen alone with the kettle beginning to hiss, and the sound of his footsteps fading down the hall.From the way he answered, I was almost certain Roman
