Chapter 48

EMMA POV

The day I've been waiting for was finally here.

I stood before the mirror in my room, staring at my reflection. A black stoned fitted gown, black heels, black purse, and a black lipstick to compliment the dress.

Yes… I am officially severing my ties with the Whitcomb today, so it's only normal that I mourn it, right?

Mom and dad already left for the party with Eleanor, leaving me behind… Just like that did back then. They told me to find my way there. They needed to take E

    ‘Bianca is coming back home in three days. I will let go of everything if you divorce Elena and get married to her’I read the text again, pressing my fingers against my temple. I told Salvatore that there's no way in hell I'm leaving Elena. I'm never divorcing her, so why the fuck is he still bringing this up?The car suddenly made a loud screeching sound before halting abruptly.I lifted my gaze to Federico. His fingers were clenched tightly on the steering wheel, his eyes fixed on the road.“Why did you stop the car?”He sighed, turning to me, “can I have a word with you, Don?”My eyes lingered on him for a moment before I nodded.Silence thickened between us for a moment, then he sighed and said, “I know I'm not in the right position to say this, but with all due respect, can you stop this already?”I raised a brow.“Not only will you get hurt if anything goes wrong, Ms. Elena would be hurt too…” “You know Salvatore… He would stop at nothing to ruin your life if you leave like t

    ELENA POV I've been avoiding Valentino for two days after what happened. I've tried to forget what he said to me at the party, but those words kept echoing in my head every damn second, reminding me that whatever we share or are sharing was nothing.“That was a mistake?” I paused and scoffed as I applied lipstick in front of my dressing mirror, my jaw tightening angrily.After weeks of trying to get close to him. After too many times of intimacy, and it's all a mistake to him?He didn't even try to explain things to me. Hmph! He's annoying.I've been digging deeper into Antonio, and requested a meeting with him, using my identity as Valentino’s wife. He agreed. Perhaps curious about me.I didn't tell Valentino about it.I arrived at Antonio's house. It was in a different location. He'd sold his former house from fifteen years ago, and built this bigger one.I sat in the living room, my eyes sweeping around, the thought of this building being built with my parents’ wealth made my ch

    ISABELLE POV “Are you playing with me right now?” The man glared at me with rage after he dialled Elena’s number for the umpteenth time and it dropped.“We were supposed to hang out together tonight but she didn't show up. I've been trying to reach her. You just confirmed it yourself. Can you let me go now?” I said, trying not to scream at the top of my lungs.I was already losing my mind.“You think I'm so stupid that you can play games with me, huh? You're trying to trick me, right?” He barked, and I flinched.“Excuse me, Sir… If you're not being stupid right now, then I don't know what you're doing. How am I playing a trick on you when I'm literally tied here?!” I blurted out before I could hold back, and he pointed the gun at me.“I'm going to blow your head off!” “I'm sorry about that, alright? All I'm saying is I'm not playing a trick on you. I don't know what's happening either…” I panicked, my voice shaking.“Can you please let me go? You look like you would be my dad's age

    ELENA POV Valentino stood with his hands in his pockets as he watched me build a pillow wall on the bed.That was ridiculous, but I still did it anyway.He quietly got on the bed, lying on his back, and I went to lie on the other side.I clutched the duvet tightly, my heart pounding in my ears as I backed Valentino, my body rigid beside him.I stayed awake until past midnight, my ears tracking his body movement.By morning when I woke up, the pillow wall was gone, and I was cuddled up on the bed with Valentino.My breath caught.I tried to quickly get away, but his hands were firm on me, pulling me in even deeper.I stayed still, my heart pounding, my body wanting to lean into him against my will.Gosh! I hated the way my body responds to his touch.As I thought of how to escape him, a knock came on the door, and Rosita's voice followed.“Ms Elena… You have a guest,” My eyes flicked open, and I blinked. A guest? Who could it be?I turned around on the bed. Valentino was already awak

    HARRISON POV'I'm at the airport. Come pick me'Marcus had said on the phone earlier."Are you sure you don't want me to drive you home?" I asked, and she shook her head."You shouldn't keep Marcus waiting at the airport. I'll go home by myself," She said with a smile."Alright, honey. See you at home," I pecked her lips before leaving the resort.I drove to the airport.At the airport, my eyes swept around, searching for Marcus. The lobby was swarmed, so it was difficult to find him.Just as I reached for my phone to call him, someone tapped me from behind, and I turned swiftly."Marcus!" I called excitedly."Surprise!" He laughed.I pulled him into my arms, hugging him tightly, "I've missed you so much, man,""I didn't miss you one bit..." He scoffed, patting my back."I know you did," I smirked at him as I pulled away.He looked around, raising a brow, "you didn't come with my little princess?""No... She's home with Evie,"He rolled his eyes and scoffed, "did you seriously think t

    EMMA POV I stood at the entrance, eyes fixed on El and Daniel. He was leaning towards her, wiping her lips with his thumb. Back then, I would've felt jealous, but I felt nothing. Not even the tiniest bit of anger or jealousy. I sighed when I recalled that this is the newly opened restauran
