Chapter 31Lisa looks up at Mr. Lombardi “What the hell do you want, and where is my sister?” She demands to know. She refuses to display any sign of fear toward him. Mr. Lombardi begins to laugh, sending shivers down her spine. “You stupid little girl, you should have listened to me the first time, and as for your little brat of a sister, she is fine... for now.” He tells Lisa and walks closer to her. “Now, as for you, TSK TSK TSK, what should I do with a pregnant woman? You will be no good as a sex slave.” He taunts and continues, “But we can keep you here until you deliver, or maybe we should just get rid of the little bastard inside you?” Mr. Lombardi laughed evilly as he looked at Lisa. He wanted her the first time he laid eyes on her, and now she is right here with him. “Don't you dare touch me or my child; Alessandro and I are getting a divorce!” Lisa shouts at him, trying not to show her fear, but deep down inside she is afraid of what he will do to her. Mr. Lombardi slaps h

Chapter 33Lisa woke up when the door opened, and she noticed the guard she talked to walking up to her. “Get ready, Alessandro will be arriving in ten minutes.” The guard says. He looks at Lisa and notices how weak she is, and then he notices the blood. He bends down and picks her up. “I'm going to put you in this corner so if somebody wants to get you, they won't find you, I will tell your husband where you are”. He talks softly and puts her down gently. Lisa nods weakly. She doesn't have any energy left in her body. She just wishes Alessandro would hurry and rescue her sister. She doesn't think her body is strong enough to escape. Lisa closed her eyes, praying her sister would be fine."Is everyone ready? You all know what to do. We need to ensure a safe and swift evacuation for Lilani and Lisa.” Johnny tells his guys. “We are going in five, and the driver is ready. Let us know when you find them”. He continues. Alessandro's impatience grows as he yearns to swiftly retrieve his wi

Chapter 35Alessandro decides to check up on Johnny. He just hopes that Lisa will find it in her heart to forgive him. “What happened to Lisa? Did I hear her crying?” Kevin asked Alessandro as soon as he went into Johnny's room. “It's something that I did,” Alessandro says with a sigh. “What did you do, and how did it go at the hospital?”“Well, the good news is we didn't lose the babies, and the bad news is Lisa needs to rest and stop stressing, otherwise she will lose them. As for what I did, Lisa asked if I slept with Bianca.” Before he could finish his sentence, Jake interrupted. “Did you really sleep with her? It's no surprise that Lisa is in tears!" Jake shouts. How could Alessandro be this stupid? “I didn't sleep with her; I only kissed her.” Alessandro defends himself. “Still, you cheated on your wife. Goddammit, Mancini, we told you to stay away from Bianca.”“I know, I messed up big time,” Alessandro says, defeated. He knows what he did was wrong, and he doesn’t need hi

Chapter 37I… I would love to go away for a few days with you.” Alessandro is relieved when he hears her say those words. Sophia winks at him then says to Lisa. “Remember what I told you.” With a nod, Lisa gracefully makes her way towards Alessandro. He takes her hand and leads her to the waiting jet. “Thank you for agreeing; you don't know how much this means to me. By the way, you look absolutely stunning.” Alessandro compliments her. “I think I know how much this means to you,” Lisa tells him. The flight attendant warmly welcomes them. Lisa noticed it was a new one. “I wonder what happened to the other one.” Lisa thought that until she heard Alessandro’s answer. “I fired her just after we came back from South Africa. This is Aurora. Aurora, this is my wife Lisa.” Lisa looks at Alessandro. “Did I just say that out loud?” Lisa thought. “Yes, you did.” Alessandro smiles. Lisa blushes because of her stupidity. “Pleasure to finally meet you, Lisa; the guys talk about you a lot.” A

Chapter 39Alessandro waits nervously for Lisa to reply. “Yes, yes!! A Thousand times yes.” Lisa laughs and then bent down to him.“I thought for a moment you're going to say no,” Alessandro says relieved. He leans in and kisses her. Lisa let out a moan.“Thank you. You have just made me the happiest man alive.” Alessandro says as he pulls away. He takes her hand and helps her up. They walk hand in hand back to the tent. A waiter brings them the campaign.“To us. May we grow old together.” Alessandro toast.“To us,” Lisa replies with a smile. They eat and then Alessandro asks her to dance. They slow dance between all the roses.“I want to marry you as soon as possible”. Alessandro whispers against her neck.“Mmm, that sounds like a plan.” Lisa smiles dreamily. Alessandro holds her by the shoulder and looks into her eyes..“How about tomorrow?” He asks.“I will in a heartbeat but this time I want to do things right. I want my family to be there as well.” Lisa tells him. Alessandro smirk
