Molly’s POV

“Will you believe me if I told you that you were the reason I kept wearing a white suit every day?" Gianni's question stopped me in my tracks, just before he reached the door.

"What are you talking about?" I asked, genuinely surprised as he patiently explained, his gaze not leaving mine.

"Molly, when I couldn't reach you again after everything settled down, I felt guilty, bitter, and angry with myself. Even worse, I felt like a terrible person whenever I remembered how pure you were and how I couldn't protect you from those bullies because I found out too late."

Bitterness tinged his voice. "You were already married, and I couldn't contact you to apologize. That's why wearing white made me feel the purity I always saw in your eyes."

I was speechless, tears threatening to spill from the corners of my eyes. His wearing white was not as people said.

It was a personal matter between us and I felt guilty for trying so hard to forget him and moving on with Wesley but maybe, that

I'm heading there now."I wanted to inquire about Roger, but then I heard a voice in the background."Uncle Hank, I'm tracking the location."Hearing his voice lifted my spirits, but I realized I still had a gun pointed at the person in front of me and the bodyguards around had guns pointed at me and Molly but that was the least of my worries.My men were right behind the door and would enter at my signal."Don Dawson, you've got it all wrong.

    Molly’s POV“Kitty, I love you." That was what my husband confessed when we were making love last night. Romantic, right? Except that my name isn’t Kitty. "Who is Kitty?" I asked him in his drunken state. My arms froze around his body.He never called me that before.Wesley hardly came home after our honeymoon, blaming it on work. Sometimes, I would see him once a month, but if I was lucky, twice.Last night was one of those times when I tried to get some intimacy from him because, after our wedding night approximately a year and a half ago, he never initiated it. I knew that alcohol could give people the courage to do or say things they wouldn't normally entertain, so when he pushed me onto our bed, I was beyond ecstasy.As an orphan, my husband was my everything, and I gave him my all. My love, affection, assets, and everything that defines me. He accepted me at my darkest point in life, and I had sworn to love him my whole life.I don’t know if I was being insecure, but when the

    Molly“Daddy, daddy!" A little boy of around four years, looking exactly like my husband, ran to his side. Gasps erupted around the room, and I could feel the stunned silence enveloping us like a thick fog. Guests exchanged bewildered glances, their expressions morphing from curiosity to disbelief.Not only that, the mansion my husband claimed to build for me had pictures of himself and a woman displayed everywhere. Intimate photos that caused the gazes of these strangers to pin on me.I must have endured a lot of shame in my life but for a husband welcoming me into a house he claimed to build for me on our anniversary day having these kinds of pictures, I wanted to dig a hole and bury myself in it, the disgrace, causing my knees to wobble.A cold realization hit me. I was the one who came between them. We got married after two months of dating, so I knew Wesley for exactly two years and two months, whereas he had a son who was over three.I did not get the chance to stabilize myself

I turned around, about to leave, but she caught up to me and held me by the shoulder."Molly, where have you been?" She asked, warmth and relief resonating from her. However, I had faced too much betrayal to trust anyone or believe that she genuinely cared.What if she was there to mock me like the others before? "It’s nothing. I have to go," I turned to leave, but she blocked my path.Our eyes met, and I could see the hurt in her eyes. Yet, she still comforted me."It’s okay. I can give you a shoulder to lean on. You can’t be coming here alone at this hour for no reason. We weren’t exactly friends, but that doesn’t mean I don’t care or believe in the rumors."Nora was one of my backup singers by then, and her care broke me into pieces. What I so desired from family, I was getting from a stranger I never cared much about before."All I want is something to ease the pain. Do you have any ha

As if that was not enough, a man was in the bed with me.Remembering the events of last night was a complete disaster, increasing the pain in my head so I sneaked out of bed, my heart heavy with fear making me wonder why my life always turned out like this.Why was there so much pain in my life? This reminded me so much of what happened four years ago, I did not want it to happen again.His face was buried in the pillow, but my heart rate was already uncontrollable. What if he was somebody’s husband like my former producer? How could I have allowed this to happen again?I cursed myself internally, hating the fact that I had been foolish twice because of a strong drink. Checking myself, I knew there hadn’t been any form of intercourse, except that this time, my clothes had been changed.Where do I begin searching for them, including my diamond necklace? That was a gift from my mother. Those two men, I wondered what happened

    “I want you to be my son’s nanny, and in return, I will help you regain all that you lost," Giovanni proposed casually, but for a moment, my heart seemed to stop beating.I felt numb as his words registered in my mind. Giovanni had a son? Was this some kind of joke?Summoning my courage, I locked eyes with him. It was evident from his expression that he was serious about having a son.He had left me for another woman, and now he was asking me to be his son’s nanny. What an insult.I couldn't shake the feeling of being foolish. Wesley had a son with my younger sister behind my back, and now my high school sweetheart was offering me a job as his son’s nanny."Where is your son’s mother?" I inquired, and he responded with a cold tone, his back turned to me."That's not your concern. So, will you accept the offer or not?"I couldn't understand why I felt so hurt. I didn't want anything to do with him, but the way he had left me for another woman stung.A bitter smile tugged at my lips as a

    “My house is spacious, you can live in one of the spare rooms." Giovanni said in a way like it was the most natural thing to say.What exactly did he want here? Why the hell would he have , his ex living under the same roof as his current wife? Was he out of his mind?"Why is that?" I inquired, wondering where this was heading. “Roger needs a lot of attention, especially at night,” he stated as I nodded slowly, “To compensate you, I'll provide you with a top divorce lawyer to end your marriage," The idea of finding a lawyer was unwelcome at the moment. I had no intention of going back to Wesley, but my revenge required careful planning, and signing divorce papers didn't seem wise just yet.I needed to strategize on how to reclaim everything before letting him have it all."You don't understand. If I do that, everything will go to Wesley," I explained. Giovanni appeared lost in thought before asking abruptly,"Can I see the divorce papers?"Without hesitation, I opened my email on my

He tossed the phone aside, his expression inscrutable.The document had been sent to my email last night, but in my current state of mind, I hadn't been able to bring myself to read it."I'm still upset and not ready to do so, which is why I need a lawyer."His expression was stern, but his tone was surprisingly casual as he delivered the news. "Well, Wesley no longer has any properties."I was numb. "What? That can't be true," I protested. Was this some kind of joke? "I personally signed everything over to him."Giovanni reached for the cigarette again, only to drop it once our eyes met, frustration evident in his gaze as he relayed the message."And he transferred everything into his mother's name.""No. That's impossible." My heart raced, my legs feeling weak, but thankfully, I was seated.My stomach churned uncomfortably, Giovanni's words echoing in my mind, his challenging gaze daring me to verify the information in my email if I doubted him.

    Molly’s POVAfter shooting Nicole in the head, I felt guilty but Gianni was able to take it all away.I loved him and this time, I was so possessive of him whenever I saw the female employees looking flirtatiously at him but what I noticed was, Gianni never even looked at them.With him, I felt like the only woman in his world, which made me special. For a moment, I wanted to find out more about Roger’s real mom but I always feared ruining the sweet atmosphere he created for me and I hardly heard them talk to each other.If not for Roger, I would have feared taking another woman’s son but his excitement whenever he referred to me as mom mirrored my excitement.For some reason, I felt the need to thank Wesley and Kiara for taking everything from me because if not, I would have never met Gianni again.However, after knowing what he battled, I couldn’t help but continuously wonder if it would have continued without my insistence of his doing it with me.Now, he wanted me every chance he

    Giovanni’s POVThe news prompted me to abruptly halt the meeting as most of the issues had been addressed."Agatha, please send the report to me first thing tomorrow morning," I instructed, and she nodded in agreement. "Yes, sir."As I stood up, I motioned for Molly to follow me before calling Hank on the phone again when we reached my office. "Tell me exactly what's going on."Hank explained, "You know how I always leave one of my spies in the shadows when I drop him off at school? He called to inform me that there were some strange men hovering around, so I told him to send a picture. Turns out, they are your mother's bodyguards."I couldn't help but chuckle at the situation. Mom's plan seemed shallow. If she captured Roger, she would try to force me to swap him with Molly, but she seemed to forget that Roger was her grandchild."Are you sure you can get him out smoothly?" I asked Hank, to which he replied with a laugh, "I went to the school immediately and picked him up. That's whe

    Nicole’s POVMolly appeared frightened and anxious, clearly caught off guard by the situation. "I..." Her words seemed to stick in her throat as Gio reminded her of my past actions."Don't forget how she almost killed you," he said, picking up my gun from the floor and handing it to Molly.I desperately tried to reach the gun before him, but I failed, watching helplessly as my blood spilled onto the floor. All I wanted was to end Molly before I died, to make it all worthwhile for my mom.Gio placed the gun in Molly's hand, guiding her finger to the trigger. I hoped against hope that she wouldn't go through with it, but my fears were confirmed when he ordered, "Shoot her, Molly."Molly's hands trembled, fear evident in her eyes. She hesitated, saying, "No, I can't." A wave of relief washed over me as she tried to pull her finger away, but Gio held it firmly in place."This is my world, Molly. There are others like Nicole out there. If you can't eliminate those who threaten your life, y

    Nicole’s POVWith the gun still pressed against Molly’s head, I had the upper hand, but mom's orders were clear: do not let Gio know that you did it.The thought of her orders sent a shiver down my spine as I searched for any exits, finding none. I dialed her number on the phone. “Please tell your men to retreat. Gio is at the door.”Molly had a shocked look in her eyes, and I knew she didn’t believe I would do it before, but just as I wanted to do it and face whatever punishment Gio would give me, I heard his voice again.“Nicole, open this door or I will break it down, by the time I count to three.” I realized Molly’s back was against the door, so the push would hurt her.I smirked, about to urge him so the blame of Molly being hurt would rest on him, but she spoke up. “Gianni, please don’t.”My teeth gritted together when I heard Gianni’s voice soften because of her. “Molly, tell me what’s going on.”She gazed at me, and I lowered the gun before whispering in her ear, “This isn’t o

    Molly’s POVI was surprised to see Nicole in the office, but there was nothing I could do about it. The fact that Gianni restricted her from any important documents was enough for me.My coming with him to his office was due to his insistence on showing me something important, but it turned out he just wanted to be intimate with me.After our last encounter, it took me a few days to recover, so we hadn't been intimate again. However, as soon as he lifted me onto the desk and moved between my thighs, I knew he was determined.I was worried it would take hours like last time and warned him, "We're in the office, Gianni. I doubt you'll finish now." His husky voice replied, "It doesn't matter. Let's see where thirty minutes take us."He set a timer and undressed me with a hunger that ignited desire within me.His kisses were so intense that I didn't mind the possibility of hickeys.Thankfully, his desk was clear, and he carried me to the sofa, thrusting into me with a powerful force that

    Nicole’s POVFor the entire three weeks I was away, Gio never bothered to check on me after what he did because of Molly. Mom took charge of the situation and sent his bodyguards to bring Molly the moment Gio sent the pictures to him. When I woke up after the tongue surgery, Mom was by my bedside, but I couldn't speak due to the anesthesia, which made my tongue feel heavy. I wondered how my tongue had returned - was it artificial or pieced back together? I gestured for Mom to give me a pen and paper, which she did."My child, I can't believe he did this to you. Molly, or whatever her name is, must pay." Her expression at the mention of Molly turned cold but I smiled at her words and wrote on the paper, "Did you send someone to take care of her?"Sorrow clouded her face as she confessed, "He killed them all."This had gone too far. Molly had insinuated herself into Gio's life, leading him to eliminate his own family's bodyguards because of her."I'm so sorry. They died because of me

    Giovanni’s POVToday turned out unexpectedly special, especially after the warning Hank gave me about Don Black's obsession with Molly. I was afraid of not confessing my lingering love for her, even though I knew we couldn't be together.What I never anticipated was Molly taking the risk of being intimate with me despite my caution.Initially, I was apprehensive, but as time passed, I relaxed. Perhaps it was because my feelings for her were genuine, not just driven by physical desire. She seemed to enjoy it as well, making the experience meaningful.There was a moment when I doubted if I could climax, reminiscent of a past encounter with a sex worker after the accident.However, Molly's encouragement through her moans spurred me on, and I finally found release without the same distress.This encounter sparked a newfound joy and excitement within me, unlike anything I had felt since parting ways with Molly years ago. I regretted not sending Roger away with Hank to ensure Molly had ampl
