CHAPTER 56VALERIE'S POVWith shaky fingers, I reached out for Stephano's phone in his trousers pocket. I quickly scroll through his contacts in his emergency list, looking for any familiar name. My rapid scrolling stopped when I saw the name Fred.That was Stephano's right hand man so I guess he could be of help. Without wasting any more time, I put him on a call. Luckily he picks up on the first ring."Yes Don" was his curt way of greeting as soon as he answered the call."This is Valerie, Stephano is- I don't know,- his bleeding seriously-" I choked out, my words jumbled similar to how my mind was at the moment."I'll be there" he replied and hung up the call.I stared at Stephano desperately wanting this to end, to help treat him. But unfortunately for me I had no idea how to stop the bleeding and the only thing I could do was call for help as soon as possible. I didn't bother calling for an ambulance because knowing them I doubt they would have wanted external bodies involved. I
CHAPTER 57VALRIE’S POV“Hey?” I called loudly, snapping Stephano from his trance.He blinks repeatedly, adjusting to his surroundings. He moves to get him to a sitting position and grunts in pain at the discomfort it brought to his wounded stomach.“Stop it! You need to get some rest” I scolded, placed my hands on his chest to stop him from getting up.“I’m okay,” he said.“No you’re not! There is a fucking bullet wound on your stomach! How do you call that okay” I deadpanned.“Where is Fred?” he asked, ignoring my last statement.“Outside, with the rest of your men” I replied.“Can you go get him for me?” he asked.“Well, that’s if you promise not to try and get up” I bargained.“Sure, sure,” he replied tiredly.A grin forms on my face and I get up from the couch to fetch Fred. As soon as I stepped out, I felt the eyes of Stephano’s men on me. M sudden entrance drawing their attention.“Is he awake now?” Fred asks after noticing my presence.“Yes. He wants to have a word with y
CHAPTER 58STEPHANO’S POVI was left dumbfounded because this was the last mafia gang I’d expect that from.That symbol right there represented my very own gang!“The fuck?” Fred And I Fred say simultaneously.The only person I could think of that had the power to do such a thing was the former mafia don, my father… but why would he do such a thing?? Well only one way to find out...“Get the car ready, I’ll be visiting my father tonight” I ordered.“But you still haven’t recovered from the accident, don’t you think you should get some rest first?” Fred remarked.“If I wanted advice on how to take of myself I’d ask, just do what I fucking said” I deadpanned.Fred nods his head in approval and leaves to go get the car ready. He knew his place here and I didn't take orders from people.I winced in pain as I tried to get up, I knew not taking rest wasn't a good idea but I could fucking careless. What I wanted to do was to find out what sick game my father was playing. I wouldn't say I was
CHAPTER 59STEPHANO'S POVHow did my father find her and why was he doing this to her??Most importantly what was my sister doing here of all places??!I was fucking enraged!"What the fuck is going on here??! and get the fuck away from her you fuckers" I yelled at the guards holding her and the immediately let go of her."Excuse us" I ordered.The two guys scurried off immediately, following my instructions. I got up on my feet and walked towards Laura who was helplessly sitting on the floor. I squatted to get myself at the same height as her and cradled her in my arms."What sick game are you fucking playing?!" I yelled at the psycho I called my father."So I was right, you really care so much about this girl… whoever she may be" He commented.So he doesn't know she is his daughter…"Why the hell did you treat her this way?" I growl angrily."She was too adamant about saying a word about who she was and how she relates to you. Don't think I didn't see the news about you with her, so
CHAPTER 60VALERIE'S POVAfter my bonding with Laura the other day I would say we are pretty close now. She was such a nice person to hang out with and I was glad to have her here. I do feel a little bit sad that she's going to be leaving pretty soon, but I mean it's not that bad. Cherry was sticking with us because apparently she hasn't found the apartment that fits her budget perfectly and she refused to take monetary help from Stephano when he offered.It's been three days since Stephano's accident and his wound has been healing quite alright. Luckily Stephano took the rest his body needed so I guess that's what made him heal faster. We were both currently laying on our bed, cuddling with each other. It was still early in the morning so we were both not very eager to leave the comfort the bed was offering us."Let's do something fun today," Stephano suggested."Like what?" I asked, my eyes lighting up in excitement."Go on a date with me" Stephano said, a smirk on his face."Sure"
CHAPTER 61CHERRY’S POV“You!”Laura exclaimed after she finally saw my face.Ugh! This fucker was just going to get in my way. I would have to get rid of her…not permanently of course. Although I wish I could do just that, it’s going to get way too messy. I lift up my gun and bang her head with the side of it to knock her out. She immediately drops to the cod tiles, losing consciousness. I took a good two months in planning for and anticipating this moment,and now it was finally happening. I wasn't going to let some bitch ruin it within seconds.You are probably really confused so let me take you back in time.๑˙❥˙๑๑˙❥˙๑๑˙❥˙๑๑˙❥˙๑๑˙❥˙๑๑˙❥˙๑๑˙❥˙๑FLASH BACKIt was another sunny day in summer and I had just finished taking a swim at the top of my boyfriend's penthouse and getting some tan of course. I walked back inside and was surprised to see Richard sitting in the living room at this time of the day, usually he should be busy with work at this time so it was shocking to see him sitt
CHAPTER 62LAURA'S POVMy head was pounding furiously in pain, my eyes flutter open and I tired to understand what was happening. I noticed that I was currently flat on the floor… in my brother's bedroom?I looked around the room questionly and my gaze stopped at where I noticed another presence. oh that bitch, Cherry! she looked like she was done with whatever the hell she was doing since she was now returning the files she had been snooping through earlier. She had a proud smirk that was doing a great job at making me incredibly angry. I wasn't going to let her get away with this!I tried to move my body to get up which resulted in my head pounding all over again. what I really wanted to do was taken some Advil and taking a fucking nap but I know I couldn't do that because now was definitely not the time for that. ignoring all the pain, I forced myself to standing position. My change in position quickly makes Cherry alert."What are you doing here?" I asked."Nothing sweetie, I'm le
CHAPTER 63VALERIE'S POVAfter informing Cherry and Laura that we would be out for the day, I and Stephano stepped out of the mansion and headed to the parking lot."You are going to drive yourself?" I asked after noticing there was no driver in sight."Yes I am," he replied."Ohh… can I drive instead?" I asked excitedly.Stephano stared blankly at me without saying a word."Ok nevermind" I muttered and reluctantly moved to the passenger seat."You can drive us, just this once though" Stephano said and threw the car keys to me which I caught effortlessly."Thanks!" I said excitedly with a giggle.Stephano had a small smile on his face as he entered the passenger seat after I was already seated in the driver seat."You know what, I think I'm going to sit at the back" Stephano said and made a move to get down."No! That's going to make me look like your driver!" I grumbled."Relax, I was just kidding," he said, chuckling.I stared at him in daze, wondering how he could laugh in such an a
