Lahat ng Kabanata ng Don Raniero's Downfall : Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

Julian's POV"International passport?" Flipping the worn out passport in my hand, I grazed my thumb on the part the name was supposed to be. Squinting my eyes as I brought it close to my face, I tried to capture the name which almost resembled dust on the plastic card. It didn't look like it said Grisella. It said something else but then my eyes darted to the picture - a younger version of Grisella. My body jerked slightly, cold chills running down my spine.That was weird.Something struck me - a sense of a familiar event. The pictures of the event wasn't too clear in my head but the face - She looked like Grisella.Nah. My head was just playing wild games with me. "I don't know if the police didn't check her up before bringing her to the hospital that day but I found this on her. I knew I should've returned it but I -""Why didn't you tell her about it?" I questioned. He scoffed, shaking his head. "She barely remembers her past life - Uhhh" On realizing what he said, he cleared h

Julian's POV"Don't do this to me." I kept repeating as I held her close to my chest, rocking her backward and forward."Please" My voice came out softly as I kissed her head. "She's.. she's getting cold." I spoke up. "She's getting cold. Drive fucking fast or I swear to God""She'll be fine, Cuz" Caleb said from the front seat. Josie didn't come with us. She was busy beating the shit out of Hannah before we left.My heart felt empty and dark. A huge black hole sat in my heart. It was like my soul was drifting out of my body.I wanted to cry. I wanted to scream. I wanted to kill Hannah but mostly, I want my baby girl to be alright. That's all that matters "Tell Russo to contact Devani and tell him that I wouldn't let this one slide" When the car stopped in front of the hospital building, I told Caleb before carrying my girl out of the car."Yes Cousin" I heard Caleb say."Emergency!" I heard a nurse say and in less than few minutes, they brought a stretcher for her but I wouldn't le

Grisella's POV"I want her arrested"They nodded. "It's just that there's no solid evidence but we'd try our -""My condition is not a solid evidence? Are you guys fucking kidding me?" I eyed him in disgust. "Oh! It's because I'm placing a charge on the almighty Don Devani's child""It's not that. It's just -""Bullshit. You know what, I made a mistake. I'll just find my way around this shit." I dismissed them. My head panged hard so I rested it on the bed. The strong smell of spirit and drugs dived through my nostril almost making me throw up. "Ma'am -""I don't want you to press charge again. I will handle it" I hissed harshly, eyeing the two police men"What's going on?" Julian held the door open looking between the police men and I.A small smile crept to my lips when I saw him. Wait, why was I smiling? I bit my lips taking in his sweet smell that had filled the room, covering the strong hospital smell. Marry men with strong perfumes and good colognes. Wait. Marry? What was I s

Grisella's POVI was going to confront him"Where to?"Groaning out loud, I rolled my eyes. "What are you? My personal bodyguard?" He scoffed, taking a seat on the bed. "Doesn't answer my question, Vixen"I tried to pick my shirt from the bed because I was only on my bra. He held my hand making my breath hitch. My whole body froze as that familiar spark ran along my spine. "I'm going to -"A soft gasp escaped my lips, followed by an 'oof' sound and then my butt crashed in his hard thigh. I glared at him but that didn't last for long as my body tensed from his touch. He traced the tip of his finger along the scar on my stomach. My throat felt dry, my mind went blank"You're still beautiful" He whispered in my ear. "Vixen, I don't want you to be hurt"I blinked once and then twice and then jerked slightly, getting myself. "I'm just going to Josie's -"He chuckled, cutting me off. "When would you start telling me the truth, Vixen? Even when I'm so close to the truth, you lie to me?"

Grisella's POV He lied to me.I looked him in the face, deep into his eyes and he still lied to me. Oh my goodness.I saw him with Hannah and yet he lied that he wasn't in town and he just got back that night? Fucking pathetic."Something's not right" I muttered under my breath.My mind wandered back to when I caught him on a phone call.~ "You have a ch..challenger in the ring but because of your health, you can't." He said.His mouth moved but his eyes didn't align to whatever he was telling me. Lies swam in his eyes. He thought he was good at hiding some certain things but he wasn't.~ "I'm just looking out for you" He said to meUncle never used his business to play. Since when had he considered ones health when it comes to what'll bring in money to him?I loved him but I couldn't also help but notice this particular flaw. No one was an exception when it concerned his money.Not even his brother's child, me A finger suddenly appeared in my vision, startling me. "Were you even
