Semua Bab Mafia Heiress's Fictitious Fiance: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Donald's POVMelissa caught me off guard with her proposal. If she was that desperate to stop the engagement with Ezio, was using me the best plan to come up with? Since she learned of me, definitely, she must have also learned of Ezio, her groom-to-be.Despite this awareness, she was still willing to strike a deal with me. What a poor Lady!A light smirk embrace my face as I noticed her legs were twisting against each other as she sashayed out of my presence.Meanwhile, I had sent Stacy and Edward to look into the reason Father attacked Scott's residence unduly. Whale Wing had cooperated so far with the deal made with the Shark Wing, so, I found no reason why Alessandro would kidnap Melissa. In fact, Melissa's attitude towards the engagement proved to me that Scott wants to sell his heiress to the Shark Wing. That was enough of a pledge to back up his Oath toward Alessandro. Why would father still attack him? Bing!The sudden beeping of my phone called for my attention and I divert

Melissa's POV Throughout the ride, I was still aggrieved and I have no idea why such feelings kept draining me. I refused to let it show on me. I should be happy that one of my plans worked out and I don't have to worry anymore but deep down in my core, I felt unrest. I need to talk it out to someone, however, no one... For me, there was no shoulder to lean on. No friend to sob with me and no family to have my back. I felt empty and alone. As if I was straying off... As if I wasn't my usual self. I had blocked Alice and Kelly on all of my social media and I did not feel guilty about it. Friendship needs to be genuine! Not fake! But for this step I took, I was clueless... I don't know if this was the right decision, however, I didn't have any bad feelings toward it. I need to make this man aware that the relationship we shared was nothing but fake should in case I did not succeed in my Task. "Do you think I was the culprit who attack your residence?" Donald finally broke the s

Melissa's POV Every ounce in me wanted to talk to Donald but he was stoic and resilient throughout the chopping. That afternoon did not just go by with chopping for dresses alone. We as well do the necessary things as a couple, however, I wouldn't term it as a date. It sucks that he kept to himself all through. Each attempt to make him laugh or chitchat with me failed, regardless, he did not appear gloomy. This part of him was just too difficult to define! And I noticed it worsened after the encounter with that rude man. Only God knows what happened between them. Judging by their affluence, they might be rivals and sworn enemies. Couldn't he be thankful that I save his a$s from such a man?The silence was too awkward that I could no longer handle it as he drive. "Can you at least turn the music on? This silence is killing me." I murmured. He wasn't responding. His palms were rubbing the steering tightly that I could see the shot of blood that made his hands pale. "Was that man s

Melissa's POV I tried to move forward and fail miserably because my feet wouldn't listen to me. All they wanted was to stay put on the spot. So I stood there like a statue. My body felt heavy, my legs were numb and my head felt so thick that nothing could pass through it. Tears thickened within my eyelid. I tried to put it under control by fixating my gaze on the floor. No matter how I tried to be strong my father always makes me weak and often time, I feel like the world was revolving around me just to my disadvantage. I have always dreamed to have the kind of love life that my parent shared. There was nothing blissful in a marital home than to have a loving husband who did love you despite all your condemnations and flaws. A sweet husband that would make every moment of your days with him worth living. A caring husband who despite all your disputes, he would still cherish you even more than himself. A man who would treat you differently in the most selfless way than whatever othe

Donald's POV"Pretense to what?!" Her face shrunk into confusion. With a disbelieving smirk, she rapidly dragged her feet on the ground and twirled around. Pausing to face me, she counterattacked with a raging pitch."How am I supposed to know you have an older brother when this City only sees you as the Boss? Your auras filled everywhere! Tell me how I suppose to know!"Then, subtly, her voice broke out like shattering pieces of glass, "What else am I supposed to do to be free? I struck this deal intending to be free of this imposed marriage!" I couldn't believe her utterances. Even the gaze she was sparkling. Standing up abruptly, I drew another hot good smoke and hovered my face over hers intimately. She did not startle but her mind throbbed. I could see those eyes calling for liberty."It is simple." I gritted my teeth together. It oozed out the flames to tenaciously splash over her face. She was in it without faltering nor with a spit of cough.Croaking out a raspy voice, I advi
