CHAPTER 71: BLACKMAILER
Ricardo slowly walked towards Aurora, looking into her eyes and nowhere else. Fear ran through her as she walked a few steps back, until her back was met with the wall but luckily for her, Ricardo stopped right in front of her but never once taking his eyes off her.“Then you better get prepared for him to find out who you truly are, because if I want something, I make sure to get that thing” Ricardo informed her and as he spoke, every word he said rang fear into all who were ready to listen.“I am not a thing, I am not an object of pleasure and don't you ever forget that” Aurora warned him, pointing her index finger at him.“I know that you're not a thing, you are a human being and you are my new obsession. You see, Leonardo has taken so much for me while we were growing up…I think it is only fair that I take you from him as well. If it means taking you and destroying my friendship with him, I would do it and it is about time that he gets what is coming to him”

Both Leonardo and Aurora sat down at the dinner table eating their food, Leonardo paused and looked at his wife who was playing with her food. Placing his cutlery onto his plate, he studied his wife carefully.“Are you not hungry today? Do you want eat something else, because I can make you something else” Leonardo offered, worrying about his wife’s inability to eat.Aurora slipped out of her mind and smiled at her husband and nodded her head, signaling no and that indeed she was fine. Even as she pretended to be alright, Leonardo knew that his wife was lying to him and that something was truly wrong.“But you haven't touched your food so I thought that maybe you wanted something else to eat, maybe the baby wants something else” he told her, making a light joke to get her out of the bad mood she was in. Leonardo could not quite pinpoint what had made his wife upset to the point where she no longer found food pleasing, ev

CHAPTER 73: CAMERA
“I think its best that we not speak about this. I mean, you know what they say? The walls have ears and the last thing we want is someone overhearing our conversation and knowing that indeed you were the murderer of that day in the bush” Ricardo advised Leonardo.“You are right, I shouldn't be speaking about this. I should be positive and not allow negative energies to ruin my wedding” Leonardo had made that decision for himself. Turning his attention back at the mirror and smiling at himself, knowing inwardly that he will do whatever it takes to keep his wife and his unborn child away from any other danger that was looming ahead.“Yes you should not be speaking like that, I mean we wouldn't want something to go wrong wouldn't we?” Ricardo told his friend in a smooth voice.                      &nb

CHAPTER 74: SURPRISE
“Mr. Leonardo, is this you?” Leonardo heard a familiar voice, he turned around and his eyes glow brighter. He knew this face from somewhere and now that he thought about it for a few seconds or more, he realized just who it was.“Do you remember me?” The older man asked him, with a bright smile on his face as though he had seen another son of his.With all the happiness within him, Leonardo stood up from his seat and hugged the older man. Leonardo hugged him, not just because he knew him from when he was younger but mainly because Leonardo felt as though he needed some sort of family closure.“Of course I remember you, you were our driver back in Sicily” Leonardo pointed out, unable to contain his excitement upon seeing the old man.Letting go of the old man, Leonardo looked into his face and he was much older than he remembered. Leonardo remembered a time where he would have this man drive him wherever he w

“Why did you do that? Aren’t you happy?” He asked her as Leonardo was confused about her actions.“Are you kidding me? We are about to get married in two days’ time and you are here renting out the entire restaurant, do you know how much that will cost? We could have literally stayed at home, eaten our own food instead of coming here and spending a fortune on food that will be enough to feel entire village” She continued yelling at him and all Leonardo could do was watch lovingly as such a small figured woman could be as feisty as she was. Without any warning, Leonardo covered her mouth with his with his mouth, hoping that it was enough to keep her quiet for now.Placing his hands around her hips and kissing her passionately and just as quick as he had kissed her, Leonardo had ended the kiss, looking into his wife's eyes as she stood in front of him silently.“I didn't think that this would do the work but it see

What do they call it?

I t

I
