All Chapters of Healing The Devil I Once Loved: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

RENZO 141:“What's going on?”“Have you told Elix the truth? You only told her you were sick.”“And I am receiving treatments. She doesn't need to know shit.” I gave Hawk a pointed look. “Leave it at that.”“But…”“Next,” I said, shifting slightly in my seat. He was becoming talkative day by day. I should separate Asher's mission from his. No one needs two Ashers in a day. Besides, Elix Vescari had her father's empire to manage. Our marriage wasn't one of love but a stable family. Anything outside the wedding was none of her business. After all, she had worked hard to get to this point with me. I shouldn't be the one to burst her balloon. “Talk about the Red Dragon.”Hawk’s gaze sharpened immediately. “Boss?”“What? Did you think I'd forget the stunt they pulled? I almost went to jail just because they had the judge in the palm of their hands.”Hawk swallowed hard. “The second in command,” I added, my tone turning colder. “Silva. Has he agreed to meet?”Hawk exhaled slowly.I cou

ZARIA 143:He grinned wolfishly.And just like that, everything inside me snapped.Hatred rose so fast, so sharp, it almost choked me. It burned through my chest, clawing its way up my throat, mixing with something… something that made my fingers twitch with the urge to either touch him… or tear him apart.God.I wanted to slash him open and demand answers until his blood spelled them out for me. Renzo deserved to die or something for all the emotional torment he made me go through.Who the fuck did he think he was to summon me here? I wanted to run at him.But I didn’t move. I stayed seated, my nails digging slightly into my palm as I forced myself to remain still… even as everything in me screamed.What would I do to make him feel the heat of the past eight years? To feel him watching every move I made helplessly?While I was thinking of several ways to end him, Renzo shifted lazily in his chair, as none of this fazed him.I narrowed my eyes at him. Why was he acting like my presen

ELIX 145:The moment I stepped out of the hospital, the sun hit my face so hard that I had to raise my hand to shield my eyes. The brightness felt almost offensive. Why should the sun shine so brightly? Why was today looking like it was going to be a great day?I took a deep breath, dragging my hand down my face.“This life is so fucking hard,” I muttered under my breath, not even caring who heard me.For a second, I just stood there, letting the heat settle into my skin, letting the noise of the outside world remind me that everything was still moving… even if my father was lying half-dead in a hospital bed.“Ma'am?”I turned slightly.Leon was standing a few steps behind me, waiting for instructions.I waved him off. “Stay with my father. Don’t bother driving me.”“Yes, ma’am,” he replied immediately.I didn’t wait for anything else. I got to the car, slid inside, shut it firmly, and everything went quiet.It was just me now. My lips curled up in a smile. For eight years.Eight

ELIX 147:“We’ll need someone like Noreo… he studies patterns, right?”“Yes, ma’am.”“He will observe first for several days until I'm satisfied he's gotten the blind spots correctly. I know the mansion’s blind spot. But, Renzo will be suspicious if I leave the rooms he expects me to be in.”She nodded again.“Arnie…” I paused briefly. “…she handles identities.”“Yes.”“She’ll get everyone inside without raising suspicion. If you go in, your mother will suspect you. But you'll tell her the staff routes, supply entries, and maintenance access ....”May’s breathing slowed, like she was trying to absorb everything.“Raven,” I said next.May stiffened slightly. “She doesn’t touch anything unless I say so,” I added immediately.Relief flashed across May’s face.“No explosions yet. Unless push comes to shove. Ya'll must escape at all costs. With or without your lives.”“Yes, ma’am.”I leaned in even closer now.“When you get inside,” I said quietly, “you don’t rush.”Her brows pulled togeth

ELIX 149:“Elix Vescari is here again.”“Shit. Are we ever going to breathe?”“I heard her father occupies the best room upstairs.”“Her father is sick yet she acts like he is stable.”I grinned. These were the bitches I bought drinks for this afternoon. I should never have done that if they were going to talk shit about me anyway.They could talk shit as long as it wasn't said to my face. I threw my charming smile at the nurses passing by with lowered heads. They knew better than to look me in the eye.I turned the corner toward my father’s wing and slowed down slightly.Leon was already there, pushing a wheelchair. And in it was Emilio.I paused, watching him. Oh, how the mighty had fallen. Emilio Vescari's head leaned slightly to one side. His body looked smaller than I remembered, like something had been taken from him that could never be returned. One hand rested awkwardly on his lap. The other was… stiff.Leon noticed me first. “Ma’am,” he said, stopping immediately.My fath
