~ANTONIO’S POV~ During the video call when Sir Edward asked who I was going to choose to assist Gemma for the operation and when I chose Luca, I saw the way Gemma's eyes lit up in happiness.Does she like him that much?We had the video call in the private meeting room and Luca left the room immediately the video call ended.Gemma excused herself and said she's going to our room minutes later after Luca left.Mateo and Marco were still standing in the room.Mateo raised his hands and signaled that he wanted to say something, so I asked Marco to give us some privacy.“What is it? Mateo?” I asked.“Boss, you shouldn't be giving Madam Pink and Sir Luca more chances to be together since you already suspect them” “Are you telling me what to do now?”“No, boss. I'm sorry boss” he apologized."Don't worry about that Mateo, you should just keep watching them" I told him."Okay Boss" he replied. ~GEMMA’S POV~ The day went by slowly as I waited for the
Margaret quickly walked to her room when Ivan entered his room. Thank goodness Ivan was able to stop himself if not they would have had sex in her bar, and what if her maid, Grace sees her?She could still feel the tingling sweet sensation inside her body. It's not like she didn't want the sex to happen but she would have berated herself for giving in to him so easily. She could understand that the first one was a mistake because she's drunk and was able to forgive herself but if she should allow another one to happen, she'll have no excuse to give.She didn't want to sleep but she needs to sleep to force whatever is going on right now in her head out of her head. And so, she drew the blankets up to chest and closed her eyes to force herself to sleep.And if everything goes as planned, she'll be waking up to good news. ~GEMMA’S POV~ I sat quietly beside Luca in the car on our way to the operation. Luca was driving while I just sat back playing with my fi
D.P.O Francisco was sitting on the chair in his office, going through some records in a book when a call came in. He picked up the telephone and answered the call."Hello, it's the police. I'm D.P.O Francisco, how may I help you?" He asked."Hello. There'll be a secret and deadly operation that will go on by two at new avenue" the voice at the other end replied. It was a woman's voice."Hello, who's this?" He asked. He was surprised at the sudden information."It's not important. You know what to do with the information I just provided" she replied and ended the call.He stood up from his seat still trying to figure out what he just heard. The woman said a secret and deadly operation will go on by two am. He checked his time and saw it's twenty minutes past one."Officer Michael" he called out."Sir!" Michael replied, and rushed into the office immediately and made a salute."How many officers do we have on duty tonight?" Francisco asked him."We have thirteen officers on duty Sir"
Luca asked Gemma to run to the car. She's his main priority, she should be safe first. He counted the remaining cops, they're three remaining. He and Gemma had taken four officers down during the shoot out. He could take the remaining three officers down on his own.Gemma stood up and started to run to the car, then suddenly he heard a gunshot. Luca followed the sound of the shot and his eyes landed on Gemma. He watched her pause, watched her hold her stomach and his eyes went wide in shock. She's been shot!! The clicking sound of a gun close to him made him remove his gaze from Gemma. He turned towards the sound of the gun and he saw the officer trying to shoot at Gemma again. Instantly, Luca shot at him and the officer dropped dead. His eyes went back to Gemma and he saw her fall to the ground."No, no, no!!" He screamed. Rage brewed up inside him as he watched the woman he loves fall to the ground in pain. She's bleeding profusely.The remaining officers shot at Luca but he w
Margaret paced around in her sitting room, she's restless and curious as hell. Her ears were itchy to hear the outcome of the operation. She had slept for a while, then woke up to see that it's not a day break yet. She checked the time and saw that it's way past the operation time, she should have gotten some news by now.What really happened??Was the operation successful?Were they caught by the police?Was there a shootout? If there's one, she just prays that the Pink butterfly dies in the shoot out."Arghhhh" she screamed, and scratched her head furiously. She's really going crazy, and couldn't wait anymore to have the answers to her questions. ~ANTONIO’S POV~ The gate opened and both my cars drove in. The doctor was already in the sitting room waiting. He drove a hospital van with all necessary equipment accompanied by three nurses. The gatekeeper locked the gate after the cars drove in.I rushed to the parked cars and my boys came rushing ou
Margaret was so happy that Antonio just called for an emergency meeting now. That means things didn't go as planned. The operation failed."Yes!!" She screamed loudly."Let me see how you escape this Pink Butterfly," she said, grinning from ear to ear.She picked up her laptop, laid properly on the bed and joined the video call held by the crime family."Everyone complete?" She heard Sir Edward ask."Yes"they all chorused."The operation tonight failed," Antonio announced.Murmurs came after the announcement. After a while it died down."The police got involved. We don't really know the full story of what happened yet" Antonio informed."How did the police get to know about it?"Helena asked."Yes, I thought information about the operation was confidential" Bridget supported."What about the Pink Butterfly? Why isn't she here?" Rossi asked."She is at the brink of death. She got shot by the cops, Luca too. Right now they're receiving treatment" Antonio replied."Wow!" Margaret screame
~ANTONIO’S POV~ I watched Gemma struggle in her sleep. I watched her call her mom and Gabriella so many times. She's sweating profusely. She's been asleep for almost two days.Then she finally woke up panting hard. The first thing she asked about was Luca and the way she asked about Bryan when she woke up with so much concern in her voice pissed me off.“Gemma, you're awake. Are you fine?” I asked her and tried to wave my anger off.She nodded her head.“You've been calling your mom and Gabriella in your sleep. You never said anything about your mother. Is she still alive?” I asked.She bursted into tears. I was surprised at her outburst at the last question I asked. She's crying so bitterly. I went closer to her and held her by the shoulders.“Gemma, what's wrong??" I asked, my facial expression and voice etched in concern.She couldn't speak as she kept crying. I sat beside her and placed her head on my chest, stroking her hair and calming her down. She calme
~GEMMA’S POV~ I watched as Margaret made her way towards me. I didn't hide the contempt on my face. She had a sinister smile on her face. Luca kept standing beside me on the bed. He didn't want to leave my side."Look who we have here!" I spat out in scorn, when she got close to me."Chill. Calm down" she replied, grinning wickedly."I heard you got shot. The Almighty Pink butterfly got shot? Oh my! I couldn't believe it" Her shrill voice rang out in a mocking tone."And not only that, you failed the operation!!" She exclaimed, and threw her hands up in the air in a dramatic way."Are you here to mock me?" I asked."No darling. I came to check up on you. Hope you're good?" She teased."Margaret.." Luca called and I interrupted him. I knew he's about to say something in my defense."Yes, I'm perfectly okay" I replied Margaret, with a fake big smile on my face."You should thank your stars that you're Antonio's wife else you wouldn't be saying that now. Sir Edward would have dea
