Chapter 122

Elena

The room suddenly felt suffocating. I closed my eyes, going silent as I tried to drag the emotions back to where I didn't need them.

I heard my step-mother say, “Elena, we are your family, shouldn't you help us? We are even going out of our way to help you out of your predicament. As the first daughter of the family, your duty Is to help our business to flourish. Moreover, we are doing all this for your sake, Charles will make you happy.”

I almost laughed out loud at her statement, wasn't I in this state because of them? So, I brought it upon myself?

My Father also added before I could utter a word, “Your Mother is right. Your sister is too young to understand all these things, but you should know better. After the marriage, things will fall into place.”

I clenched my fists by the side, feeling a sharp sense of sadness overwhelming my thoughts.

Why? What was so special about Lily? All my life, I have worked hard, did everything I could to prove myself to both my Fa

  • The Mafia’s Price:Bound By Debt    Chapter 121

    Chapter 121ElenaElena stilled in surprise, “You…you are not coming?” She asked softly, and Dominic gave a head shake before gesturing for her to go.“Go, they've been waiting for a while.” Elena stared at him for a while and had an inkling that he had something in plan. But, after a while, she stopped hesitating. She was desperate to leave, and having her Father pay off his debts was the best choice. Although Elena still remembered how the family had treated her in the past, she felt that she could forget everything since her Father was finally willing to help her.Slowly, Elena made her way into the small condo up ahead, and she could feel Dominic's gaze heated on herself. She pushed the door open and walked in to glance around the sitting room.She didn't do that for long as her gaze finally fell on two figures, one female and the other male - My Father, Mark, and his wife, Morgana. Having not seen them for so long, there was nothing different about them. But, when they saw me,

    Chapter 120Elena“Really?” I pushed the duvet away and jumped down from the bed in excitement. “Did he really say that?”Something flashed in Dominic's eyes, but I was too excited to care. What matters was that I was going to leave this place, and for good. Even though I was not on good terms with my family and I was still angry at the fact that he never knew to contact me all these days, I was still glad that he was finally willing to take me away. Well, he probably just got enough money. His company was not doing well before I left, so it was understandable. In a few seconds, I had already thought of several excuses for him.Not excuses, but the facts. “Why are you so happy?” Dominic asked with folded arms, and I almost rolled my eyes, but didn't. “It's my family we are talking about here.” I replied, smiling broadly to myself. Then, Dominic nodded, “If you want to see them, you can just tell me and I will take you to them personally.”I was about to nod my head when I suddenl

    Chapter 119ElenaI could feel Selene's sticky gaze on my body as Dominic pulled me away without care. There was something wrong with Selene, and I didn't like the odd feeling she gives me.However, she was one of Dominic's most trusted people, I was probably just being paranoid. Arriving in Dominic's room, he asked, “You Okay?”“Apart from the bitterness in my throat, I'm fine, I guess.” I replied with a shrug, but had no doubt that I would be having a concurring nightmare of what I've seen for probably three days straight. “You shouldn't have seen that.” He pointed out, but I did not say a word for a while. “Why did you bring me here?” I asked, suddenly remembering something. Does he want us to...?Dominic turned his back to me, and made no attempt to reply. Just as I got slightly worked up, his phone suddenly rang.When he saw the name displayed on it, he frowned slightly before raising his head to look at me. “You can leave, I will call for you in a while.”I was slightly surp

    Chapter 118ElenaInitially, I didn't want to follow, but in the end, curiosity got the best of me and I found myself following behind Dominic like a little tail.However, I regretted that decision not long after. As we walked along the hallway towards the entrance of the mansion, my gaze fell on something laid on the ground and my breath ceased both in shock and terror. At first, it looked like the shadow of two persons, awkwardly sprawled on the gravel floor, just beyond the front gate. When the sun shifted, the sight became clear and the air stilled.It was the figure of two men, with faces bloodied beyond recognition. One of them had his eyes swollen shut, while the other, seemingly lacking the eyeball, only had a gaping hole. His lips split and cracked were in a shade of crimson color.His suit, what remained of it, had several tiny holes that I could tell were made from bullets and stained dark with his blood. One of his arms was twisted in a grotesque angle, while the other

    Chapter 117Dominic My eyes narrowed slightly, “Are you sure? Have you confirmed it?” I asked James, staring at him intently. James nodded firmly, “I am certain, she is the same girl from that year.” He said, and I inhaled slowly. So, it is her.Actually, I have seen the similarities between Elena and that naive girl from that year, but I kept convincing myself that she was not the one.For years, I have been looking for this girl, whose naive gesture had given me the courage to make the biggest decision of my life and start building my legacy without Matteo's control.That year was the darkest phase in my life, and like a ray of sunshine, she had seeped through the smallest hole and warmed me up.That particular day was when my mother died through an assassination that was initially meant for me. Until now, I am unable to get rid of the guilt and the self-blame because I should have been in her place.Now that I have found the girl I've been looking for, what will I do?As though
