The door opens without a warning and there I saw Vicenzo holding a tray. Boise is behind him holding a glass of water and milk. They both look at me and Gordon, so I smile gently to ease the possible suspicion from Vicenzo.I do not want him to think that I'm against him or I don't trust him. I do trust him, I really trust him. But I just can't sit comfortably without doing anything."You mention last time you want a dumpling soup" Vicenzo utter and walk towards me "So I ask the chef to cook it for you" he sounds excited causing my smile to widen.He looks like a child that boasting something to other people. Gordon makes way for him as he gets the bed table and placed the tray on it. He gets the glass of milk and water to Gordon and puts it on the bedside table.I look at the dumpling soup and I can't help but feel amazed. I didn't know he still can remember it. Well, that was just an excuse to save the maid who makes him mad. I didn't know he takes it s

"Where's your husband?" Dad asks strictly while roaming his eyes around the room.They were inside my room and Vicenzo's room. After his conversation with Greco and Calcifer, Dad went straight here to see me together with Mommy Adeline, and Aliah."He left early, he's attending a meeting" I replied politely and I even smile when he lifts his head to look at me.I'm sitting on the bed while he's sitting on the two-seater sofa across the bed. Mommy Adeline is beside him, she was not talking- she's just silently sipping her coffee while observing around. Aliah on the other hand keep on walking back and forth checking every piece of stuff that was placed on the tables. She was like a supervisor because she's checking every corner of the room."Are you even sure he went on the meeting?" Dad suspiciously utters giving me an intriguing look.I took a deep breath and shook my head. My gaze landed on my wedding ring that made me smile a little."I am

I look at the dark sky blankly feeling the heaviness of my chest. My tears keep on streaming down to my face, the dark sky is no longer glimmering with the fascinating glitters of the stars. It's already 3 o'clock in the morning and here I am standing in the balcony wearing only my white night dress not minding the cold morning breeze.I don't know what did I do for me to experience this kind of struggle. My heart is aching and I couldn't accept everything that I found out. It's true that truth will set you free, but the consequences of finding out the truth will make you thought that 'I shouldn't have seek the truth in the first place'.I fisted my hand and took a deep breath. My mind is in so much chaos right now. I take a step forward and then I position myself into a proper posture. I press my lips together and I start counting inside my head while doing the basic position of ballet. I did it for how many times until I tried to tiptoe and lift my body. I open my ey

The car halted in front of our house. I was hesitant to step out but I force myself when Calcifer opens the door for me giving me an assuring smile."Thank you, Cal" I whisper politely."Stay safe here. Remember that even if you're here, we're still monitoring your every move. You cannot go outside, mia signora" he reminds me.I nod my head.I don't know why he agrees but I'm thankful that he let me although, I know that Vicenzo will surely get mad at him.I glance at Greco when I heard the door of the passenger seat open. He walks a little farther from us and roamed his eyes around as if he's checking every corner of my father's house."Let him, he's just checking the area" Calcifer utter.I shifted back my gaze at him and force myself to smile."I'm sorry, I know Greco didn't agree but I still insist to stay here " I apologetically mumble.He smiles coolly at me and shakes his head as if everything is just nothing to h

"Not scared anymore?" He mumbles while his lips moving, trailing kisses down to my jaw.I bit my lower lip tightly because of the sensation that my body starting to accept. He's getting touchy again which doesn’t complement his rough and rug facade."I never got scared of you" I replied trying to be serious despite the tingling sensation I'm feeling right now.He stops what he's doing and bowed his head to level his face to me."Ah-huh?" He hissed playfully, provoking me, moving his brows up and down. I wanted to laugh right now because honestly, it doesn't suit him. He looks so dominant, intimidating, and menacing, and yet he's raising his freaking eyebrow like a gay? He has a rug face for Pete's shake!Instead of smiling to hide my giggle, I lick my lower lip and furrowed my brows to make it more convincing."You don't believe me" I mumble bu
