Chapter 21 Matteo’s Pov

Chapter 21Matteo's POV "Wake him up. This isn't an episode of sleeping beauty. I am sure he has had enough rest; and don't give him a gentle tapping. Make sure he feels the impact of his awakening," I instructed Leonardo, one of my trusted menaàaa who didn't hesitate in dumping the man with a bucket of ice cold water. I shivered within me. The temperature in the room temperature was already chilly. The man will be freezing in no time if he didn't cooperate with what I wanted. He jolted awake harshly, breathing heavily. Once he made eye contact with me, his eyes widened in fear and get started trashing around, trying to move back but it was not use. He was strapped down to that chair. Even if he somehow managed to make an escape, he wouldn't go far until I hunt him down."Do you know me? My face ring a bell to you?" I questioned seemingly innocent. The kept moving his lips, but didn't utter a word. Feeling frustrated, I yanked him by the hair. I didn't have time for shit."Words,

Chapter 22 Isla's Pov

Chapter Twenty-TwoIsla's POVI pretended to be asleep, listening intently to Damian rubbing my stomach gently, while talking to the baby. It was a little weird for him to be in my room, but it was also comforting that he cared about this child. Damian was promising to be a good father to him or her. He promised to give our child all the love in the world, as they deserve it. It was something he never got as a child. One would think the baby could see him, but I was sure it could hear him as he went on about how they will be his pampered prince, or princess. He didn't care about the gender, as long as he got to hold them. The more I listened, the more I questioned my previous feelings about his seeming plan to terminate my pregnancy. Could it be that I was making wrong assumptions about his intentions all this time? The coincidences were just overwhelming. I was torn at this point. For a moment, I zoned out on his words, lost in my own thoughts. Damian wasn't done talking yet. He was

Chapter 23 Matteo’s Pov

Chapter Twenty-ThreeMatteo's POV I sat in my car, watching and waiting. I don't care how long it was going to take, as long as I get to see the bastard who was responsible for even attempting to tarnish Isla's name. I could stay here for the whole day as long as I accomplished what I set out to do. I had already informed my Father I wouldn't be showing up to work today. Even though he kept pressing, to know where I was headed and what was going to keep me busy for the day. I wouldn't give him that satisfaction. Our relationship was becoming more strained by the day. The only person I could confide in was dead, and I didn't want to bother my mom. Last time, she broke down in tears when she saw the ridiculous headline that useless Salvatore wrote about Isla. I was just glad and grateful that Mia was spending time with her. Both of them were planning the wedding together. At least it was something to keep her mind off things. Mom's relationship with Isla was special. I knew there wa

Chapter 24 Isla's Pov

Chapter Twenty-FourIsla's POVHanging out with Lucia has been a delight. Even though she had a chaotic presence, I still look forward to hanging out with her. She knew how to bring out the happiness in people. I don't know why Damian had been hiding his sister, but I am glad that he finally introduced us. This has been the best thing he had ever done ever since my amnesia. I was no longer bored. I still had juice, but she was constantly busy these days. I had no idea why her workload seemed to have increased overnight. Maybe it had something to do with Damian. He seems a little bit possessive, always making sure whenever his sister was around, he would be constantly sticking around himself. He never left me alone with her.I have been curious as to why he does that. Lucia doesn't bite. She doesn't have a nasty attitude. She is just a happy go-lucky chaotic nineteen year old. I don't know why Damian was so worried of what his sister might do to me. Perhaps there was something else he

Chapter 25 Matteo’s Pov

Chapter Twenty-FiveMatteo's POV "You seem to be really busy these days, I was beginning to wonder if you took a vacation without your mother and I knowing. What have you been up to Mateo?" I turned my head, sparing him a glance. "The last time I checked Father, I am not a baby. I don't need to tell you wherever I go to. I have some personal business I need to handle, it shouldn't be of your concern," I dropped the pen I was holding, fully stating at him now. "Are you going to have someone follow me now? Isn't that what you are good at?" I asked, my tone hard.Ever since I pointed a gun at my father, he had been mindful of how he talked to me. He never expected that I would do such a thing. I have always looked up to him, worshipped him, and at every turn, turned a blind eye to every one of his crap. He is powerful, I admit that, and he could get rid of me with just a snap of his finger; but I was younger, and I could easily turn all his associates against him within the least amou

Chapter 26 Damian's Pov

Chapter Twenty-SixDamian's POV Every piece of my puzzle was slowly falling apart. I never expected that Isla would be so smart. I was playing a calculated game of chess but each move I made, Isla was always there to knock down my pawn. I underestimated her. I thought that with her amnesia she wouldn't be so smart. I barely knew Isla. I was only able to see her a lot of times at different functions held by Alessandro De Luca. I knew she was beautiful, and people often talked about how smart she was. I just didn't believe any of it. I had always thought of it as was one of Alessandro's usual hypes. He always seemed to do that a lot just to bring down other people, but elevate his family.Even though Isla wasn't his daughter, but she was still his ward. How could I forget about making a fake wedding picture? It never occurred to me until Isla asked of it. I just thought that everything was going perfectly. I knew that Lucia coming back, and her constant presence around Isla was a ver

Chapter 27 Alessandro’s Pov

Chapter Twenty-SevenAlessandro's POV "You seem stressed these days, darling. You are often awake more than usual. You know your heart condition, and how much you need rest. Mateo will take care of everything, that is why you have training him all his life," my wife said. I've been doing just that, nurturing him on how to run the company, and every other business of the De Luc family. It should have been time to actually take a little break, maybe go on a vacation, somewhere out of the city like I had promised. I knew she was in desperate need of getting away as being in the house everyday makes me sad. She had told me herself. I was supposed to grant her wish but leaving Italy was risky. I needed to keep an eye on Matteo. I wanted to know every bit of his move and being away from home wouldn't allow me do that. "I don't have a bedtime. I can go to sleep whenever I want. Successful men don't sleep often," I said. "If I keep on falling asleep just because I need to, then my enemies

Chapter 28 Isla's Pov

Chapter Twenty-EightIsla's POV No matter how much I looked at it, I couldn't feel any spark. I felt nothing. To me it was just a plain picture, a painting that held no memory. No headaches, no familiar feeling of recognition, no longing, nothing. It felt I was just staring at a painting in an art exhibition with a very terrible artist.The wedding pictures screamed exotic. The wedding journal, even the venue in the background looked as if it cost millions. The jewelry I was wearing could feed an entire orphanage, the heels were looking so expensive to be real. Everything about me that day screamed elegance but the more I stared at it, it looked so fictional. I felt as if I was staring at myself in a drama, and I couldn't even recognize who was standing before me. It was like a different me in the picture and a different me as I stared back at myself— Isla Moreno Russo, wife of Damian Russo.Even when said aloud, the name sounded so foreign in my mouth, as if it wasn't meant to be m

Chapter 29 Matteo’s Pov

Chapter Twenty-NineMatteo's POV "We should do this more often, Mateo. You have no idea how happy I was when you told me you wanted to take me out on a date," Mia said, excitement in her tone. "I thought you were pulling a prank on me. It still feels surreal. Someone should pinch me so that I can know that I am not dreaming." Mia yelped in pain when I gave her a little pinch. She was surprised by my actions. Wasn't that what she wanted? I granted her wish."You really pinched me!" she asked, giving me an incredulous look. Her mouth hung open as if she couldn't believe what I just did. "You literally just said someone should give you a pinch to know if you are dreaming or not, and that is what I did. Is there a problem?" I asked, feigning ignorance. As we strolled down the street to get to the parking lot, I thought we would be driving to sn upscale restaurant, maybe have dinner or maybe lounge. But Mia dragged me forward, pulling me past the lot. She wanted to take a walk while s

Chapter 30 Isla's Pov

Chapter ThirtyIsla's POVIt's still felt surreal whenever I remembered Damien's words about how our wedding was felt like a fairy tale, but with a hint of drama. I love that he was honest with me. I was expecting him to tell me a lie about that day being perfect, melodious music sounding everywhere, me looking breathtaking, and having our honeymoon in one of the most expensive places, and other bullshits. I didn't want him to tell me something straight out of a novel and Damien did not do that. I appreciated the honest. I can't remember going to a wedding what, but from what I have heard, I can tell that it was the happiest day of my life. Maybe I can finally stop having doubts about my married life with him. All I just needed to know was if I was unfaithful to him, and who did I cheat on him with. Was it Mateo De Luca? Or could it be Raymond? Damien always emphasizes how close I am with his right hand man, and I have seen the way he glares at Raymond whenever he came close to me
