Chapter 71: AHHH, DISASTERANNABELAfter the whole pandemic of chaos that almost sent my heart landing in the hospital and perhaps laying next to him, I agreed to us going home, but he didn't take us back to his mansion. He took us to an estate—a fully guarded estate with lots of buildings sprawling across manicured grounds."Wait, you own these? All of these?" I asked, gesturing at the impressive structures before us.He just nodded, his eyes warm but his face somehow distant, like he was hiding something, protecting something, and it was making me quite worried."Are you sure that you're strong enough to leave the hospital?" I pressed, studying his pale complexion with concern.We were supposed to leave the next day as requested by the doctor, but for someone who had just woken up from a coma, he decided we should leave today, saying something that had to do with vulnerability and hating anesthetics."I'm very fine, cupcake. I love that you worry about me a lot, okay? But I'm good,"

Chapter 73: Shattered by Them ANNABELI couldn't see anything with this stupid cloth tied around my eyes, but I could hear Janet laughing like this was the best day of her life. They shoved me into the car and I almost fell on my face but I wasn't going to let them see me cry or beg. Not Janet. Not any of them.The betrayal from Christiana hurt more than anything else though. She literally sold me out like it was nothing. Like all those times we talked meant absolutely nothing to her. All those late nights when she listened to me cry about my problems, when I trusted her with my deepest fears. I trusted her and she just threw me away like garbage.I tried to pay attention to where we were going even though I couldn't see. The car smelled gross, like old cigarettes and something else I didn't want to think about. Maybe sweat or old food. I could hear traffic at first, horns honking and engines revving, then it got quieter. We turned a bunch of times and I tried to remember which way b

Chapter 75: The Devil’s Truth DAMON I watched through the security footage, seeing every moment as Annabel told the guards about going to the mall, and they let her go like idiots. "Have everyone who saw her leave punished. Properly punished in mafia ways." I gritted my teeth, feeling so disappointed in my men. How could they be this careless? Each second that passed felt like I was losing my mind. I needed to find her quickly before something bad happened to her. Then I saw her walking toward a car in the footage, and the car driving off with her inside. "Zoom in on the front glass of the car." Carlo zoomed in, and that's when I saw her. The driver. I closed my eyes tightly, recognizing the woman in the picture. She was Anna's friend, and I'd seen her countless times in the surveillance photos my men sent me. "I want her here now." Carlo nodded his head. "I'm already on it." I started pacing around the room, but then a thought flashed through my mind. How the fuck could I

Chapter 77: Walking into the Hands of DeathANNABELRonald walked towards me, his eyes not leaving mine, and slowly I was sitting down on the wicked chair, hands bound by ropes, and he was towering over me. I didn't know what his next action would be, but it seemed the fight was coming to a close as the sound of gunshots was slowly fading.He grabbed my neck, twisting his hands around my neck so tightly that I felt my entire breath almost getting knocked off."Your daring prince charming has come to save you, but let's see if he will save you from my hands."His words made me shiver at the same time his hands were still digging into my neck, and I was fighting for breath.He let go of my neck in one swift motion, and I found myself coughing out loudly with tears streaming down my eyes.His hands went into his shirt as he brought out something, something that shimmered in the light. It was a knife, a dagger rather. My heart skipped a beat at the sight of it as he bent down low, his gla

Chapter 79: The Weight of SecretsDAMON"Mother..."Her voice pierced through the chaotic room, our eyes making contact. Her eyes lit up at first before they shifted back to something else—anger, bitterness, and... hurt.My heart clenched at that. How could she believe I fucked with Janet, or was there something else, something more? A part of me wanted to believe that Ronald must have told her stuff, given her more information than she needed."Mother, you came."She whispered, slowly trying to sit up with the injury on her ribcage, but I came rushing to help her, and she backed off, pulling away from me."Get away from her. She doesn't want your help."Her mother snarled as she helped her sit up. My heart clenched at her actions as I gazed at her, but she looked away, focusing on her mother, who was holding her cheeks and ensuring she was fine."I want to be alone with my mother."She said, not looking at me. A growl ripped out from my lips. What the fuck did she want to do, push me
