《A Broken Butterfly》全部章節：第 21 章 - 第 30 章

Gonzalo still keeps Patricia, Tasha, Tommy, and Anthony on the island. He wanted to keep them safe from Patricia's stepmother. Gonzalo doesn't have enough information yet. So he doesn't want them to be on her immediate reach until he knows more.On his way to a business meeting, Gonzalo saw a mother and her son walking on the side of the street. Gonzalo remembered when his mother used to take him for a walk without all the bodyguards.- Flashback-Saturday morning. Gonzalo's most hated time of the day. This is when one of his dad's most trusted assassins would come into his room and wake him up with snaps of thin wood on his exposed skin. He would wake up with stinging pain and red marks on his skin.Gonzalo wanted to yell at him so many times but what he does is part of his father's orders. And Gonzalo doesn't have the right to break or bend his rule.Even though Gonzalo's body hasn't fully healed with the brutal training he had last week, he was

It's lunchtime, but Gonzalo still hasn't come out of his room. Since that morning when he opened his eyes, all he could think about I,s Patricia, her soft lips and beautiful eyes. Those eyes that sometimes stare at him, nothing else matters in the world. He doesn't want to feel that towards her. He can't. But there's no way to control his feelings. Their maids have knocked numerous times, but his door was kept locked. Gonzalo knew he needs to stop before he even begins. Because if he allows himself to feel for Patricia, even just a bit, the world will come crashing down on him. "Gonzalo?" His thoughts were interrupted when he heard Patricia knocking at his door. His body wanted to turn around and open it. But he tried his best not to. "Gonzalo, are you okay?" Patricia asked. Her voice was full of concern. Gonzalo closed his eyes and breath deeply. He can't give in. "Gonzalo, open the door. Come on." Patricia pleaded. His heart aches for her. His body

Benny's desperation started to show, and it was apparent with Gonzalo. He's been watching Benny's movement since that night. Patricia sometimes questions Benny about his family as she's just trying to get to know him, but Benny was too apparent with his discomfort in answering her questions."Boss, can I talk to you for a minute?" Darryl approached him like he was worried about something."What is this about?" Gonzalo asked in a serious tone."About Benny, boss. I'm watching his movements, and I think he's hiding something." Darryl stated. Gonzalo acted as if he had no idea what Darryl was talking about."What do you mean?" Gonzalo asked."It's just—he's been acting differently," Darryl replied."You're just paranoid. Go ahead and enjoy yourself, Darryl." Gonzalo responded, dismissing him.Gonzalo thought that nobody else should know about Benny's situation. They might complicate the situation. Gonzalo thought that if his suspic

When Tasha heard that Patricia left the mansion with another man, she was shocked. But what surprised her more is when Darryl told her that Gonzalo left immediately after Patricia, but then he came back alone. She was sure that Gonzalo left to follow Patricia, but why did he come back without her?While playing with Tommy, Tasha silently watches Gonzalo as he walks back and forth. Giving orders to his men, calling on his mobile phone, and from time to time, playing with Tommy. As much as she wanted to talk to Gonzalo, she felt like it's not a good time."Tommy, come on. Let's go to the garden." She was about to pick Tommy up when all of a sudden, Gonzalo's loud and angry voice boomed in almost the whole property."Where the hell have you been!" Tommy cried, possibly out of shock, when Gonzalo shouted."Out, I went out. What's the problem with that?" Patricia answered, confused as to why he was angry. Tasha tried to hushed Tommy, but he kept on crying.

Levi was hurt when Patricia left without saying a word. He didn't understand why she has to act like that. He didn't even know if he did something that offended her. She wouldn't even answer his calls. He wanted to talk to her, to know what happened. But she was avoiding him. So he decided to visit her.As he parked in front of the Valenzuela property, he felt so nervous. Honestly, every time he step foot on Gonzalo's property, he feels anxious. A lot of armed men roam around the property at any time; war will always erupt."Excuse me; I'm a friend of Patricia." He tried to speak as politely as possible. The man who approached his car looked at him like he was about to take out his gun."Easy, Douglas." A younger guy approached his car. In Levi's eyes, he may look more youthful, but the danger in his every move is still there. "Hey there, buddy. What can we do for you?""I'm looking for Patricia," Levi replied.The younger guy told him to wait as h
