Giselle's POV :
I don't remember when we had reached the house.
But, my mind registered Venettio placing me on the bed.
I was perspiring profusely. Ugh! Raw vodka is a bad, bad idea.
I didn't want him away from me. The alcohol wasn't messing with my brain.
"Don't go." I caught his wrist.
He came closer to me and said in the softest voice, "You're drunk sweetheart."
Now I was burning with fury. I hate Joana.
"I hate Joana!" I voiced out loud.
He looked at my shoulders and back at me with amused eyes.
He picked me up and cradled my head to his chest.
"Who are you?" He asked me.
"Joana."
"So you hate yourself?"
"Yes. I hate Joana with every inch of my skin."
"In that case, I hate Joana too. Rather, I
Giselle's POV :I went to my car in dissapointment.I drove all the way to my apartment without stopping for even a minute.I reached my apartment and breathed in the familiar homey scent.Home sweet home. I locked the door and immediately went to the bathroom. I took off my wig and showered.I looked in the mirror and sighed. Finally, I didn't have to disguise myself anymore.I immediately went to my office and I was greeted by my employees.I thanked Celia and got to work. I was checking files all day long. Finally at night, I checked and signed a good amount of files.By the time I reached my apartment, it was 9 pm. I fell back on the bed and immediately called Chelsea.I told her each and every thing that had happened. I burst out in tears when I told her about the close proximity to Joana.
Giselle's POV :I was in a crisis! I needed a date for the event. I was ready. I had a navy blue, floor length silky dress on and my hair was in an updo.I didn't even read that I needed a date. "Who should I call?" I asked Tolo.He barked and I said, "Awesome. I hope he comes though."I called Silvio and he picked up, "Silvio, are you free?""Yes, why?""Thank God! Will you be my date tonight? I need to go to a charity event and I need a date asap. I didn't read it before, but now I read it again and realized that I needed a partner.""Calm down Bella. I'll come. Give me 15 minutes to get ready.""Thank you so much! You're a life saver. I owe you one."We said our goodbyes and I texted him my address."Baby, he said that he'll come." Tolo licked my hand and drifted off to sleep.
Giselle's POV:He was infuriating. How dare he think of me in such a way?Anyways he doesn't have to know that the 'he's that I love is Tolo.Finally, he drove to my apartment.I was about to open the door, but he locked it."What do you want?"He put his head on his steering wheel and said, "Please tell me you were lying...about loving someone else.""I do. It's irrelevant to you.it was who you broke my heart, not the other way around.""Giselle, I thought I could move on with my life. But the thought of what I did to you, kills me everyday. The thought of you being with someone else kills me. You know why I left you?""Why?" I whispered. "You could be lying to me." I told him."I swear on my mother's grave that from here on, I'll be telling you the truth.""I do
Giselle's POV :We quietly slipped into their warehouse. There were so many members.But, when they realize that it was us, it was chaos everywhere. There was blood, bullets, and weapons everywhere.I took down whoever I could. It was all blood and gore. I got stabbed and shot. But, the men of Devil's wrath were very strong.One could say they were a little more skilled than the other mafia. Everybody was fighting and I even spotted Tito. But, he didn't recognize me.Hell's men were going down in number. It was clear that we had the upper hand. But, even our men weren't in a good condition.I saw Venettio fighting with a man. I was approaching them, and from the corner of my eyes, I saw someone aiming his gun at Venettio.It didn't take me a heartbeat to run over to him and act as his shield. I was ready to embrace the bullet, but
Giselle's POV :"He's totally whipped." I heard someone say."Come on. Let's get you washed up. I spoiled your dress."He flung me across his shoulder and carried me upstairs.I hit his back. "I can walk you know.""It's been too long sweetheart."He dropped me in the bathroom and I closed the door and took a shower.When I finished, I wrapped a towel and came out of the bathroom.As soon as I reached the bed, I was tackled."What are you doing? Get off me!"His face was centimeters from mine."No. Hear me out. I honestly love you. I told you why I left you. It's okay if you don't want to give me a chance because I don't deserve it. But, I'm selfish Giselle. I can't bear the thought of you with someone else, nor can I imagine you with anyone else.
Giselle's POV :"Do you take Giselle as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?""I do. I take this ring as a sign of my love and faithfulness in the name of the father, the son and the holy spirit." Venettio said.I also repeated the same vows.I was wearing a white mermaid dress with lace sleeves and a shiny belt. I even had a tiara with a really long veil. My hair was done into a chignon and I had diamond earrings. When Venettio saw me, I swear his eyes got glassy.I myself was teary, but I didn't cry for the sake of my makeup.Venettio looked delicious. He was wearing a white suit, with his hair gelled back. His sharp jaw, piercing grey eyes, high cheekbones and luscious pink lips made
Giselle's POV :My alarm rang disturbing my sleep. I cursed the alarm and got up. I saw the date on the calender and finally, I saw it was the day for my interview at Armanio Enterprises.I brushed my teeth, took a shower, all that boring stuff. I dressed up in the outfit I picked out for the day, put in some pearls in my ears, slipped on my shoes, took my purse, locked my apartment and got in my car.Armanio Enterprises wasn't that far from my home, so I reached there in 15 minutes. I sat in my car for a few minutes to collect my cool and got out of my car.Okay, breathe in, breathe out Giselle. You can do this! Imagine that this is your high school part-time job and go with the flow.I looked up and my nerves began building up once again. The building was practically a SKYSCRAPER! It's now or never. I took out my mini mirror from my hand bag and checked my appea
Giselle's POV :"OH MY GOSH! Are you serious sir??""Yes I am dear. Your work starts from tomorrow.""Thanks a lot sir. I will try my best to fulfil my duties as your personal assistant.""I'm sorry but you won't be working as my personal assistant. You'll be working for Alvador, my son. I actually live with my other son in London who handles the company there.""Oh!"I thanked him once again. Before I left, he patted my head and wished me luck for dealing with his son, who apparently has anger issues.When I reached the ground floor, I gave the receptionist a thumbs up which she also returned with a huge grin. I saw Mr. Giant at the entrance and smirked. His father had hired me. I could see his anger bubbling.Just as I was about to walk out, I tripped over something and I would've fell face flat if I hadn't bala
