Ma, we can’t kill Ignacio, he’s been held in Antonio’s private apartment and infiltrating into that place is asking to he killed. There’s no way we are going to get in there without getting caught. Antonio’s new bodyguard is a force to deal with.”Vittoria walked into her room visibly restless,“What am I to do, Donatus?” she raged, “That man, Ignacio, he knows too much! If Antonio’s minions lay their hands upon him, he will divulge all that we have worked so hard to conceal. My father will be in so much trouble and I may end up loosing the company and you know how hard we’ve worked to bring the company to this stage.”“We can always deny everything he divulges to Antonio.”“I know Antonio better than anyone. If Ignacio survives and tells Antonio what he knows, I will be in deep trouble.” Vittoria exclaimed.“It’s impossible to get into Antonio’s apartment, Vittoria,” Donatus stated firmly. “After the incident with the wiretapping, Antonio increased the security around his residence.
“Monster?” Antonio repeated her words with his gaze fixed on Amora, his eyes blazing with anger.Amora’s eyes were wide with terror. She recoiled from his advance, covering her ears to block out the chaos that surrounded her.“Monster!” she screamed in fear. “Go away!! Go away you murderer!!” She screamed harder.Antonio’s hand clenched into a tight fist with a mask of cold rage written all over his face.He stood motionless and had his eyes on Amora as she retreated until Eduardo barged into the room.“Sir!” Eduardo called urgently capturing Antonio’s attention.Antonio turned to face Eduardo who gasped out immediately.“Sir, what happened?” Eduardo’s asked in an alarming voice as he approached Antonio, who was standing still with a blank expression on his face.Eduardo’s eyes ran through Antonio’s body from head to toe, searching for any visible signs of injury or distress.He noticed that Antonio’s shirt was a little bit torn near the shoulder, but there was no blood or bruising.H
"What do you mean Mateo has been poisoned?" he exclaimed, his voice rising with panic while everyone's attention turned to his face. Vittoria snapped back, "Stop asking me that question and get back home!""Where are you? Aren't you with Mateo?" Antonio asked while sitting up on the plush jet seat.Vittoria replied, "No, I'm at the Mayor's campaign with my father. No one is with Mateo, and the nanny can't..."Antonio's fury coursed through him and he abruptly ended the call, his fingers curling into fists, "At a mayor's campaign when your son is in danger." Eduardo, sensing Antonio's tension asked, "Is everything all right, sir?"Antonio's face contorted with anguish expressed his frustration through a low growl as he raked his fingers through his hair."Call my bodyguards at home immediately. I must know the status of my son, now." Amora and Camila exchanged concerned looks as Eduardo swiftly sprung into action, dialing the phone numbers of the guards."Yes sir," Eduardo replied a
"What is that?" Amora examined the parcel with a keen eye, "A pregnancy test kit?"Amora's breath hitched as she studied the parcel's contents."Surely, with all the fiery, steamy moments and hot sex with Antonio, you're supposed to be pregnant," Camila teased, grinning from ear to ear.Amora's hand circled around her tummy, "Pregnant?" she whispered, "I... am I pregnant?" she stammered, her gaze fixated on Camila's mischievous expression. Camila leaned closer to Amora, "Did Antonio ever use condoms when the two of you had sex?"Amora's cheeks flushed as she sheepishly admitted, "No, he never did." "Don't you see?"A broad smile spread across Camila's face. "Antonio may want to have a child with you! Imagine the possibility of being a mother. Unless, of course, you are on contraceptives?" She asked nudging Amora's shoulder. "I've never taken contraception. I don't think Antonio would have approved of it." Amora responded.Camila nodded, "Precisely my point! Have you ever checked i
"You did well, son. You always know how to protect me. You deserve a reward for this," Buccolini said with pride as he spoke to Antonio. "You never fail me, Antonio. You were the right boy to take under my wing all those years ago. What do you want? Just name it.""I will let you know if I require anything," Antonio said before ending the call.He glanced down at his Ignacio's leg, which was bleeding heavily. Antonio let the gun fall to the floor. "Clean up this mess," he ordered the bodyguards, turning his attention to Ignacio."I would decapitate you if anyone found out you survived this," he threatened, his words cold and menacing.Ignacio, trembling with fear, replied, "Thank you, sir.""Get him out of here and keep a close watch on him. Track his every move and look into what he was talking about earlier," Antonio whispered into Eduardo's ear.He sighed deeply, his footsteps slowing as he stepped out. Eduardo quickly followed, concern evident on his face."Sir, are you alright?"
"I don't understand," Amora said with a confused expression on her face while Antonio got out of the bed and started to wear his clothes."Antonio...Antonio..." she stuttered, sounding nervous. "You...don't like...that I'm pregnant?""I promise this time I won't lose the baby. I'm fully aware that I'm pregnant, and I'll take care of this one." She said while watching him get dressed."Get up," Antonio said in a distant voice while she complied. Antonio selected a red dress from the expansive closet, "Wear this," he instructed, extending the dress to her. Amora took the dress and slipped it over her body.Amora could feel Antonio's urgency as he led her out of the room and down the hallway towards the car. They ran into Camila on the way, but Antonio didn't stop to chat. "Drive us to the hospital now," he told the chauffeur authoritatively.Amora watched Antonio's face as they sat at the back of the car. Antonio's brows were drawn together in a deep furrow."Antonio, did I do somet
"Come on now, stop looking. Pick any car you want, and I'll handle everything," he urged and gestured towards the rows of sleek automobiles adorning the showroom. "Take me home," Amora demanded with her eyes narrowing into a steely glare.Antonio's face shot up in surprise, "Lamborghini, Ferrari, Rolls Royce, Range Rover, Maybach, Mercedes Benz," he gestured towards the stunning array of vehicles before them."Not a single car appeals to you?" he asked in disbelief, "Are you sure you don't see something you like here?" He asked. "I want to go home," she whispered with tears welling up in her eyes and her voice heavy with emotion. "I'm trying to cheer you up, but you need to work with me here," he said frustratedly while his gaze pierced through Amora like a dagger. He sighed and pulled her into his arms, offering her comfort."Stop crying," he barked, "It doesn't suit you, and it makes you ugly. You're better than this.""I want to go home." She repeated in a silent whisper, "Re
"Good evening Miss Amora Francesco. My name is Eduardo Rugo, and I'm your personal bodyguard." Eduardo bowed while Amora glared at him angrily. Her brows knitted together in consternation, "Personal bodyguard you say?"“Yes ma, I was employed by Mr. Antonio to work for you..." "Stop with the formalities!" She exclaimed, her chest heaving with rage. "You make me sick!” she cried out, her voice raw trembling before she banged the door on his face. "What's the matter?" Camila inquired with a worried expression washing over her face before she noticed the tears rolling down Amora's cheeks. "Oh no, Amora, are you crying again?"Amora erupted in tears,"Why wouldn't I cry? Antonio makes me sick!" she sobbed, "He pretends to care, but he wasn't even excited about our baby. He just keeps buying me gifts, as if that's all I want. And then he's on TV, saying family matters most, like I'm just a fly in the ointment to him. Something he can use and then toss aside when he's done with me." her
