LOGINAs a lawyer myself, I never knew that facing what any of my clients would face, will be so tough. I was blamed a murderer of my own husband all evidence against me. And that was how my life began. I was forced to get help from my biggest enemy, Mateo. The mafia I planned on ruining myself to make my yearly achievement. The story turned into a desperation between love, duty, and survival. Which one will I chose?
View MoreMateo’s Pov“ Mathew, get in the car.” I said, my voice low. And immediately, I also got into the car waiting for Mathew to make a move. As soon as he got into the car, there was a whole new level of panic across his face. And as soon as I noticed that, I knew one thing was for sure, he might be affected by the substance in the air. “ Hey, what happened?” I asked, my voice low. He turned his head to look at me. “ The substance in the air gave me an allergic reaction.” He said,“ What?” I asked, dumbfounded. Could that thing be made out of food ingredients? Or is it something else? I stared at him. “ Use the spray. “ I said, Immediately, his fingers tumbled across the bottles of spray right in front of him. Ever since he became my driver, I have kept all his medication right there in front of him. I knew all about him, and it was my responsibility to protect him from any harm. Although Mathew might be my assistant, he was more than that in the normal system. He was like a family.
Mateo's Pov As soon as the words left her mouth, she seem to understand the weight of what she'd just said, because I had forgotten how to breathe for a moment. Not only that, it was as if my lungs were not responding to air at all. “ I don't understand,” I said. For all my life, this is the first time my voice would ever tremble. Oh Lucifer, why am I in this dilemma? For the first time ever, my voice had trembled really hard, all for the sake of not wanting to lose my freedom. “ Boss, she means the kids are not responding to treatment.” Mathew said beside me. I swallowed hard, the long loss of breath made me gasp for air the next minute. Although it didn't appear in my face, it was really evident in my pocket . My hands were in my pocket, slightly trembling. I couldn't break the strong facade nor could I let this goddamn nurse do their work lazily. “ Try harder,” I said, my voice cold, letting out a cold sigh. “I want them discharged from here in the next two days.”
Serena's Pov. I jumped to my feet as soon as the guy came to my cell gate, he had a wry smile across his face. And for one moment, I thought he wanted to do something wrong to me, so I just pinned my gaze on him as he hinged forward. A wide smirk tugged across my lips as I prepared to attack him. He might have thought I was a weak faggot. I didn't say anything, I just watched his steps carefully. He paused, grabbing his belt, he let out a deep sigh. “ Time for lunch,” he said. I hissed, the smile disappeared immediately. I had thought of making him a scapegoat. And everyone in this cell would know I wasn't joking here. “ Okay,” I said, rising to my feet. I dusted my clothes. Afterward I made my way out of the cell walls. With each step I took, the cold damp smell filled my nose, and the crazy odor from the guy right In front of me. I looked past him as I slowly made my way into the dining area. Ever since the day I stepped into these walls, each and every one of them kept stari
Mateo's PovI landed on the floor with a thud. A loud oomph escaped my mouth, mysteriously the girl in my hand didn't shout, she was calm. Too calm.The smoke engulfed us till the extent we could not see anything at all. I raised my head to look at the twins and to my utmost shock they were both lying there, unconscious. I am just so dead. I quickly retrieved my phone from my pocket, dialing Mathew's number. And as soon as he picked the call, I yelled. “ Get the ambulance and run down to the attorney's villa immediately!” My voice, loud. I shielded Rose with my body. A low groan escaped my lips. Why did I even volunteer to take her children in? Now I am in a tight spot? I almost lost my life because of an insane decision. I could just stare helplessly as the flames engulfed the building, I watched sadly. But there was something I didn't understand, who is the other person targeting her? Who wanted her dead? My mind raced with multiple questions. Questions I didn't even have an an
Mateo's Pov “ Drop your gun,” I snapped, my voice cold. As I waited for the kids to get upstairs. My breath hitched, as I stared at her. Why was she holding a gun? Were they planning to kill Serena's children? I didn't break eye contact with her, nor did I shoot, I wasn't gonna do any. K didn't w
Mateo's PovI smirked, retracting my hands into my pocket as I made my way out of the police station. I turned to look at the whole station again. And reminded myself about my success today. I thought it would be hard to crack, but it came off easily. I was so wowed. I turned back heading towards
Serena's Pov Wow, in my years of experience I've never seen my enemies wanting to make a deal with me, not even him. I wonder what brought him to this conclusion. I took a step closer, my hands crossed above my chest and a wry smile tugged across my lips. “ And why do you think I'd agree to thi
Serena's Pov My whole world came crumbling fast, my mind began racing with multiple questions. How? How did it get there? I don't have a gun, how did it get there? My heart ragged, skipping a beat, nearly leaping out my chest. My eyes bloodshot as tears slowly cascaded down my eyes, what will I
