Semua Bab His Ensnared Innocence: Bab 51 - Bab 60

Mili made up her mind and took Willa with her to meet Tulip. But, she could not help but dither at the grand entrance of Tulip's residence, her heart felt uneasy as the guards stepped aside to let her in. The moment Miliani stepped into the marble-floored foyer, her eyes darted across the space. Everything seemed polished to perfection. Too perfect. The hall area had two big portraits - one of Lorenzo and his wife and the other one of Enzo and Tulip. But, there was no warmth, no trace of the vibrant woman Tulip had always been. "Madam is waiting upstairs," a maid said softly, breaking Miliani's train of thought. Miliani nodded and ascended the winding staircase while Willa remained on the ground floor. Mili's hand was trailing along the cold bannister while she watched the big portraits of Enzo and Tulip along the wall. "Miliani," Tulip greeted her softly as Miliani stepped inside, her gaze was immediately drawn to the wall to her right. It was covered with pictures of Enzo a

Her heart pounded so loudly she was certain he could hear it as he dragged her close by her neck to attach her lips with his starved ones. Involuntarily, Mili let out low whimpers of pain as he purposefully bit on her lips. He had not touched her for three days, and it was definitely her fault in a way - she provoked him against his odds, and no matter how hard he tried to, it was lucid that he could never hold back from her. He might not have admitted it yet, but the truth was accepted long before. Daniel coiled her hair around his fist before breaking the kiss. The smirk on his lips grew darker, more wild as if she'd just challenged him in a way no one else dared to. By this time, he was throbbing down there. It was excruciating. He reached the free hand to undo the belts and buttons of his pants. "Let's test how badly you want it, Mili" he teased, yanking the hold on her hair to make Mili straighten

But, wasn't she accustomed to this all her life? That was objectionably worse than this. Whatever it was, Daniel's noxious possessiveness had only added fuel to the submerged flames in her heart. She made up her mind to visit this place only to get rid of those suffocating thoughts but each second in her old home was becoming unbearable for the distressed girl. Not a single thing, one single picture of hers, could be found in that house - it seemed like she had lost every trace of her childhood and was only left with the bittersweet memories. With a rushed pull on the main door, Mili opened it. She was quietly waiting for Daniel to arrive and take her away from there. Minutes passed when one of the guards approached near, " Signora, a

"This way," she guided Mili towards the fire exit door that was positioned at the backside of the store. In haste, Tulip thanked the employee of the store who was standing by the exit, enabling them to slip through it without anyone else around noticing. The sound of their hurried footsteps echoed as they stepped down a lot of winding stairs. When Mili and Tulip finally made it to the ground floor, they emerged into the rare parking lot on the backside of the mall. Dario rushed closer, guiding them to the direction of the car he had managed to arrange, his eyes constantly scanning the area warily. Tulip approached the car and got inside it with quick, purposeful steps. A silent understanding was rhyming between them. Mili glanced back at the mall, gripping the car door tightly. The

She was fighting hard between finding comfort in his hold and sinking deeper into his trap. Daniel turned towards the direction they were previously walking to. Mili looked back at Dario, her heart clenched at his blood soaked sight but she understood very clearly that silence was the wisest choice to face such circumstances. The site of the dock was a minute away as Daniel covered it with a few powerful strides. Tulip - unprepared for all these and petrified upon Daniel's arrival rushed towards the dock. The cargo ship was already settled and ready to sail but what she witnessed made her scream. A chopper was standing right on the helipad of the luxury cargo ship they were meant to board. Her trembling steps scanned the surroundings, the gunshot was not to be ignored. Her eyes were tear stricken when sh
