All Chapters of Speak Of The Devil: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Early the next morning, Aurora had woken up late despite setting the alarm as early as six. She knew that Luca would leave for work that early and she wanted it to seem like she'd bumped into him. She wanted to speak to him however it was impossible now.The waist trainers she had worn caused her a lot of pain and inconvenienced the kids. Still, she had sauntered to Luca's room hoping that by some miracle he would be around. However, that was not the case. Sighing, she turned on her heels but did not expect Sandra to be behind her. The latter laughed."What are you doing here?" she asked Aurora "You snitch! Aren't you standing before me in that big belly?? What did you use to hide it, huh? Why didn't you tell everyone the truth?! Just like me, you love the wealth and luxurious life that comes with being married to Luca. Yet you stood against me when I have every right to be married to Leo. I am with his child! But you're carrying a bastard!""I'm not like you," Aurora replied calmly "

At the office, Leo finally found an avenue to speak to Luca. Walking in with a folder in his hands, he shut the door behind him.Seeing the documents in hand, Luca said nothing.Leo dropped the files on his desk and noticed that Aurora's picture that had replaced Rachel's was face down on the desk. It was a warning not to broach the topic but still Leo wouldn't leave without accomplishing his goal."These are the files you requested from your secretary," Leo broke the silence.Without looking up, Luca said "I requested the secretary to bring them to my office, why are you here?"He added sarcastically, "Since when did you turn to my secretary?""I..I happened to be passing by when you placed the order from the intercom. I saw that she was busy so I helped her with it. It's not bad to help is it?""Don't play smart with me, Leo." Luca still had his head focused on his laptop, "Were you just passing by or were you in fact with my secretary?""What??""You already have a marriage prepar

The night was tough for all of them.For Luca because he blamed himself for everything and believed that Aurora was only getting back at him for the times he'd hurt her. Sitting by the side of his window, he drank to stupor.He wished that she had just forgiven him and let him show her how much he was sincere of his actions. "But it's fine," he mumbled incoherently.For Leo, he was in a confused and frustrated state. He began to wonder if his decision to let Andrea go and remain with Sandra was the right decision. He became even more frustrated when he got to a dead end. The dead end was a reminder that his unborn child is completely innocent of his mother's sins.Unable to stop thinking, he grabbed a bottle of Scotch and found solace in it.Sandra did not expect that things would backfire and cause her pain. All the years she'd known Leo, he'd never laid his hand on her say less of raising his voice on her. That aside, he rarely got mad at her. Her feelings were hurt by his choice o

When Aurora became fully awake, she found Luca beside her. His arms were wrapped around her and her head rested on his broad shoulder. Again, she found herself staring at his handsome face. His well chiseled jawline and pointed nose.Shutting her eyes, she squeezed herself against his warmth and caressed his face, smiling as she did so.After several rounds, she was overwhelmed with fatigue and let Luca take her to the bath. She didn't know when she fell asleep but she was glad to wake up beside him and in his arms.But the happiness was shortlived the moment she realized that she'd be leaving today. Guilt welled up in her knowing that despite being pregnant for someone else, she still let Luca lie with her.She sighed and her hand dropped from his face to his chest."Luca," she whispered "I remember the day my parents told me I'd be getting married to a Mafia. A man with no regard for humans and someone I had no feelings for."She continued, "Then, I was in love with Matteo, my first

Luca was in a pensive mood.Not because he now knows that Aurora had fallen pregnant for that scumbag, it wasn't even her fault. She was just as naive and innocent every new lover would be. The problem is that he had treated her badly and even hurt her while she was pregnant. To worsen the situation, he was at a loss for what to do. Due to this, he had come to his favorite bar house and was drinking massively.It was hard to continue and pretend everything's fine and even harder to walk away and just accept that Aurora isn't for him.He's heard of siblings getting unequal love. He doesn't want that to happen when he finally accepts another man's kids as his. What would happen to his own biological child? Since he's the head of their family, it would be ridiculous and downgrading should he take such a decision.On the other hand, how would he live without Aurora? Should he have found that earlier, he'd have let her go.As he downed the content of the bottle, he knew he was only foolin
