All Chapters of Sold To The Mafia Heir : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

“Why did he tell us to leave the study? It was dirty and needed some cleaning.”“Ava, it’s not easy for some people to process grief. That was his father’s study”Shit Ava. How could you be so insensitive? However I saw something in that study that looked like people I see in my dreams. Those group of people and that man. I know Lorenzo is in the bloodline of the mafia, were they his family? Oh my God I need to figure this out.I drummed my fingers on my head. There’s something in that room that links with my nightmares.I need to get inside of that study.I walked into the kitchen to see Elena pressing some lemon,“hey Elena, how many years have you worked with Lorenzo?”“for as long as I can remember.”“let me help you with that.” I collected the basket of lemons and lemon presser out of her hands. I wonder why she use it when there is a juice maker. Old lady.“He doesn’t like his lemonade from the juice maker. He hates the taste of the zest in the lemonade”“ohhhhhhh. How did you

I stepped out of the room and walked down the stairs and into the dinner room. This should be my favorite place aside from my room. The long table in room had silver wares displayed on it and the most beautiful chandelier hung down. It looked better than the one in the pent house. “wow! It looks and smells delicious”“well, wait till you try it.”Pablo opens the dish for me. I must say these two put in the effort to treat me well.“thank you, pablo”“the pleasure is mine.” he said pouring me a merlot. I hope Elena doesn’t suspect I am with her key card. She leaves the dining room to the kitchen and comes back with desert.“ohh chocolate cake”“i thought you would need it after everything today” She is so kind and considerate. “awwww, thanks. I could really use a chocolate cake.”After my mom’s news. And Elena doesn’t look like she is looking for the key card. “do you have any idea when Lorenzo would be back?” I asked as I cut through the grilled meat set before me.“no.”“what a

“Aria is alive?”“Aria —Dr. Andre stopped breathing the moment he said her name.Not because I pulled the trigger.Because he realized he had already said too much.Motherfucker. Spill it already. The room felt smaller after that. The walls. The air. Even the men behind me shifted their weight. No one spoke. No one moved. The only sound was his breathing. Fast. Uneven. Like a man who had run out of places to hide.“Say it again,” I said quietly.Tell me that my Aria is alive and she is somewhere waiting for me. Say it, God damnit.He shook his head. Sweat rolled down his temple. His eyes kept darting to the door like it might open and save him.“You should be careful, Lorenzo,” he said. “Some truths don’t stay buried.”I pressed the gun harder against his skin. His hands lifted slowly. Not in surrender. In fear.“You don’t get to warn me,” I said. “You already took enough from me.”He swallowed. “I didn’t kill Julio because I wanted to. The kid was blackmailing so many people and wa

“I don’t understand,” I said.Her eyes filled. One tear slipped down the side of her face and disappeared into the pillow.“These had been,” she said. “ the best Ten years of my life.”Ten years of her life.“What do you mean mum?” I asked.She shook her head. “It’s an honor to be called your mum.”“Mum—”“You have brought joy,” she said quickly, as if afraid I might interrupt. “Happiness. Satisfaction to my life. You were a miracle. Although, you cried in your sleep like you were running from something.”My hands had gone numb.Wait. Hold on. “But you didn't give birth to me.”“No, my love. We have an unbreakable bond like I was your real mom.”“Then who is my real mom.”“I don't know.”This is a lot. “Mum, you are not my real mother but you know something about me, don't you?”“No. No.”“Mum, I wiped the tears from my eyes with my left hand while my right held my mum's hands. “Tell me anything you know about me.”“No. No. It's-“Tell me. Anything, especially with my nightmares.”“

“What happened on your way here?” I asked her driver as he gave her purse to Elena.“I really don't know.”He shrugged, “she just asked me to come home and has been crying all along the way.”Crying?? Did anything happen to her mom?“Hey, Ava.” I pulled her gently from my chest, lifting her face. “What happened?”“Lorenzo, I am so sorry”I stroked her puffy cheeks and eyes.Sorry for what.“I am so emotional right now.”“I can see that. What is going on?”Please tell me you were not attacked by some people. “I went to see my mother,” she said in between sobs and sniffles.“Yes.”“I asked her about some things about myself.”“Okay.”Come on, tell me.“Uh…well she told me some things.”“What did she say to you?”She pursed her lips.“She said she was not my mother.”“That is so shocking. You must have been heartbroken.”Is that why she is crying?“Yes I was surprised and it was quite shocking. I have known her for so long.”“Alright, let's sit down.”, I gestured to the dining room and p
