CHAPTER ELEVEN

VALENTINA’S POV“ Please can I ask you for a favor? “ Angelo asked me suddenly after he tilted his head and thought for a while. I wondered what favor he wanted to ask of me. “ Sure. If it's within my power I'll help, “ I found myself saying to Angelo. I didn't know why I couldn't say no to him.“ Can Mrs D’Arezzo stay here with you while I go get things back in order at the estate? I'll leave some of the men here to stand guard and don't worry they won't be caught unawares ever again, “ Angelo said to me.“ First I need to know her condition before I can let you leave her here with me. I need to know what I'll be dealing with, “ I said to Angelo. This was the perfect opportunity for me to know what happened to the beautiful woman and there was no way I was gonna miss the opportunity now that it had presented itself.“ I can't go into details because it's my story to tell. But all I can tell is that she has never said a word ever since her husband's demise, and she began to show sign

CHAPTER TWELVE

VALENTINA’S POVWhen I turned and saw that Ric’s mom was the one who just spoke, I was dumbfounded and tongue-tied. I just continued staring at her.“ Would Cardo be okay? “ She asked again with worry evident on her face. That was when I regained my composure.“ Uhmm, yeah, yeah. He’ll be fine, “ I lied to her with a smile and a look of assurance on my face.That was all I could do at that moment. I didn’t want to make her more worried because I didn’t know for sure what was wrong with her yet.I couldn’t possibly just tell her that her son was in a coma and we weren't sure when or if he would wake up. That would devastate the poor woman.“ Alright, “ She said but didn’t look convinced. She went back to how she was before she spoke. Not wanting her to be that way, I decided to check on Ric a little later. For now, I needed to strike up a conversation with his mom at least every day to get her back to her normal self. So I walked over to her and sat down on the chair across from where

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

RICARDO’S POVI saw Valentina being dragged away from me while I was in chains by Santiago. Valentina was crying and begging me to help her while she was being dragged away by Diego and his men.I tried to set myself free but I couldn't. I was scared and frustrated. I had to do something. I had to help Valentina. That was when my eyes fluttered open only to realize that it was just a dream.I woke up in a room that looked strangely familiar. IV fluids were connected to my veins and the life support machine was beeping steadily.I tried to move my hands for a while but I felt numb. An artificial ventilator was on my nose which I so much wanted to take off. After a series of trials, my hands moved and I removed it.It took all the strength in me for me to sit up on the bed. I looked pathetic and this aggravated my anger. Diego and Santiago Dimaria were the cause of all this.“How many days did I pass out?“ I muttered as I turned to check the wall clock on the wall.I gasped when I reme

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

VALENTINA’S POVI was shocked to see Ric’s mom standing in front of the door. How the fuck she did manage to get up?The sedatives I gave to her were very effective and strong even for a young person, talk more of an old person.The sedative was supposed to knock her out for a day and it was nearly 6 hours since I sedated her. Yet here she was standing in front of us.Ric on the other hand looked like he had seen a ghost.“Mom?” He called out unsure if his eyes were lying to him or not.“It’s me, son,” His mom answered with teary eyes and went to hug him.It was the first time I saw Ric cry. He shed tears like a baby while hugging his mom and it was understandable why he was acting this way.“I thought you died,” Ric sniffled when his mom pulled away from him and caressed his tear-stricken cheeks.Angelo walked over to them and gave them a handkerchief which they used to clean each other's faces.“I survived and I'm here now okay?” She said and Ric nodded his head like a baby.“Okay a

RICARDO’s POVThe next time I opened my eyes after Valentina sedated me, I was feeling much better.I wasn’t feeling as weak as I was. No one was in the room.Then I remembered that I had seen my Mom. The relief that washed over me seeing that she wasn’t dead like I assumed, was what moved me to tears not minding that Valentina was there.I felt gladdened knowing that Santiago’s plans didn’t work. Gosh, that man was going to suffer. I was going to make sure of that.I couldn’t get out of bed due to the IV fluid that was connected to my body and I really needed to talk to Angelo.When I looked around the room, I saw that my phone was placed on a small stool that was beside my bed.I took the phone and dialed Angelo’s line. He picked up the call after the third ring.“Where are you?” I asked.“I went to get your Mom what she is craving to eat. How are you holding up?” He answered.“Alright. I’m much better than before. Hasten up and get back here. I need to know what's been going on si
