All Chapters of Don Raniero's Downfall : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Grisella's POVI was ready.I was ready to tell Julian everything. I trusted him now and I didn't want to hide anything from him."You can do this" I said to myself, putting on my lipstick as I got ready for the dinner.Something about this Uncle's Dinner stirred a weird feeling inside of me. A part of me felt like it was going to be a disaster.Maybe I'm just paranoid."It can't be that bad" I shrugged, dropping the lipstick back on the dresser. "Something is missing" I looked at myself in the mirrorAll I could see was a broken girl who was heading towards a dark lonely path. A broken girl who had learnt to put on a facade so, so good that she had almost lost herself.If not lost herself "I know what's missing" Julian's voice broke me out of my thoughts. I smiled up at him from the mirror when he placed a soft kiss on my cheekHe has been very supportive this period. He didn't even question me much and has been silently giving me emotional support. He didn't even know"My kiss for

Grisella's POVEveryone was talking at the same time. The noise grew louder and louder as I quietly stared around. They were judging me. "Grisella is not your name, Darling girl" He announced again, loud and clear.No ambiguity. "Vector, this is -""Oh, looks like your little boyfriend knew all along" Vector turned to Julian who stared at me pitifullyI looked into his eyes, begging him to tell me he didn't know. Begging him to pretend like he didn't know. Begging him to say anything along that line.He avoided my eyes, answering my silent question. I gasped, closing my mouth. "Devani doesn't look shocked either so I'm guessing he knew before now too" The more Uncle Vector spoke, the more my heart squeezed in my chest."You.. you lied to me too" I pointed at him, walking closer. "Aww, get over it darling" He waved his hand dismissively. Everyone made way for me to come forward. They all stood, their phones in their hands. They were filming us."Uncle!" I yelled in disbelief He

"How could you stoop so low!" Swallowing hard, I moved my head to the direction the loud voices came from. My vision was all blurred out because of the tears that streamed down my face - hot, unending, unforgiving.It was out of my control.Everything was out of control "I did it for my family." Delilah stood her ground as she spoke to her husband, repeating the word she'd been saying since the revelation.Tiredly, I turned my head to the other end of the room where Rachel - I couldn't even call her mother. A mother who couldn't feel her child? A mother who didn't think twice to hurt another person because it wasn't your child? Devani and his wife argued seriously. She was equally crying. The cries hadn't stopped since we returned from the event. "You're wicked. How could you hide my child from me""Did you listen to me when I told you I had a hunch? Did you listen to me when I told you not to adopt that fucking child then?" Devani's voice cracked as he yelled. "You never listen, R

Grisella's POV "Why are you doing this to yourself?" Slowly, I peel my eye lids open. They were heavy and tired from all the work they've been going through these past two weeks. If not three now"You've barely touched your food. Hell, you've barely been eating these days" Jenna eyes the quantity of the food and then, me. Groaning, I turned to my side. "I don't have appetite" my voice cracked."Don't tell me you're crying again. It's been weeks since everything happened" Jenna sighed softly. "I know you're still hurting and -""Just go away" I mumbled under my breath.I was missing him. I felt empty without him and i ... I don't even know if he feels this wayHow would he feel that way for someone who ruined him anyway?How would I feel this way for someone whose family ruined me? "I went away last time and came back to you in a terrible condition. I don't think I can do that, Grisella. Stop pushing me away" I felt the couch dip in from weight, then next was her hand on my ribs.

Julian's Pov"I will do whatever you want, just save her" I hung up, half agitatedLife had a way of forcing you into doing things. I was sure Russo would be happy now."We would like you to sign an agreement before we proceed" A nurse said, pushing a document towards me.Russo walked in on us, speaking up immediately. "What's going on?"Rolling my eyes, I snatched the paper from her. "What the fuck is this?" I flipped through the pages. Apparently, it was an agreement to sponsor Grisella's treatment for my hand in marriage. Janet was really shameless. "You're squeezing the paper" The nurse pointed out. Russo's hand on my shoulder made me jerk back into reality, releasing my grip on the paper."We don't have a choice. She's in a very critical situation" Russo squeezed my shoulder. I shoved his hands off my shoulder in annoyance. Who knew if he was even working for Vector."This is our chance. Grisella would be safe, we'd -" He turned to the nurse and then looked at me. "Just like w
