Chapter 72

Engaged

"You're getting better," Gabe proudly said while watching Larisa walk. She can now walk properly than before. Sometimes, she stops because of her injury. But it was so much better than before.

Larisa couldn't help but to smile. She can now just feel a bit of pain from it.

"I can be your bodyguard now," she said happily. Gabe's smile faded after she said that.

"No, you're not gonna be my bodyguard anymore. Don't you want to do anything? Start a business? I will support it," he suggested with a huge smile.

She can actually afford it. Even though she left the Valestine, she has a lot of her own money in her bank account.

"I can use my own money," she uttered. "But I'm kinda lost now. I still don't know yet what to start," she added and took a heavy breath.

"The cake you baked was the best," Gabe complimented. "Why don't you start a cake shop?"

Her brows raised. "I think it's fun," she said.

    Chapter 73A family"How can you not tell us that you're engaged?" Leo asked, following Larisa inside right after the fight. She was still sweating as they were pouring her all their questions. Gabe was being interrogated by the others as well. "It's our plan," Larisa uttered and shook her head. "I'm happy for you," Noah said as he smiled softly to her. He never saw Larisa this happy since they were kids. She never smiles so wide like this. That was when he knew how happy she was with Gabe Clyborne. Turning her back to her own clan was the best decision she made. "Why didn't you tell me that you're coming?" She asked as they went inside the house. "Oh, I just snuck out. Did you have a fight with that man?" Noah asked, talking about Gavin who was being assisted by David and Estevan after she stabbed his arm. "Yeah. He challenged me, don't worry about him." She replied and chuckled."That's Gavin Clyborne. I'm sure that he will suspect you, but don't mind him." Leo said as he gave

    Chapter 74Didn't want it"B*llsh*t!" The furniture flew on the television, which destroyed it. They just all heard the spreading news about the engagement of Gabe and Larisa. Many people are now thinking that they tied the knot with the Clyborne. The rage inside Lucinda was bursting as she thought of it. Until now, she couldn't believe that her huge alas betrayed her this much. "She's getting married?" Gabriel said and cackled as they were all absorbing it in their heads. "It will be an advantage. But if we are planning to erase the Clyborne and steal everything they have, the Mafia world will mark us as the bigger traitors in this world. No one would ever want to have a relationship with us," Yna discussed as she sighed with the problem. Lucinda was catching her breathing, trying to calm herself. "You took care of a big snake," Gabe added, pissing her off even more. "Shut your fvcking mouth, Gabriel! I might forget that you're still a Valestine," Lucinda said firmly, pointing

    Chapter 75Different"Y-You didn't want it…I-I trust you,""I broke your trust," Noah replied, crying a river with his shivering hands. His world is collapsing, to know that it was Larisa that he stabbed and not Amber. It crumples him like a paper to see Larisa right in front of him, covered with blood all because of him. From that moment, there's only one thing that he feels vividly. He was so scared. "D-Don't cry," she crumpled her hand that was blocking the blood coming out from her waist as she tried to breathe. "It's okay," she added and forced a small smile on her lips. "Larisa!" Her eyes quickly went to Gabe walking towards them with huge steps. Behind him was Gavin, Estevan, Leo, and his parents coming with him. But then, it was not them that caught her eyes but the men of Clyborne who were pointing their guns to Noah. And there was David, ready to pull the trigger of the gun and kill Noah Valestine. Her eyes widened as she glanced at Noah for a second. "DAVID, NO!" She y

They are definitely fuming mad because I didn't stab Amber," he replied, anticipating what can happen. Larisa took a deep breath. "I am not forcing you to do this, Noah. But remember, you can have your own freedom by turning your back to them.""Larisa," Gabe entered the room and called her. He simply nodded to Noah when their eyes met. "I brought food," he added and put it down on the side table. Looking at Gabe who acts like nothing happened makes him feel ashamed of himself even more. Larisa smiled at Noah. "The decision is all yours. Remember, you're always welcome." She then held his hand before they both left him alone in the room. "If you need anything, don't hesitate to tell us. We're only next door," Gabe said as they left."The doctor told me that you can be discharged tomorrow. Thankfully, your wounds are not that bad." Gabe mentioned while he was

He was the one who kept doubting Noah and who hated Noah's presence. They all know him well. He really doesn't trust people that quickly. There was Gavin, offering his bare hand to Noah as he was kneeling in front of them. Larisa has no words. She was only watching Gavin in front of her cousin just like all of them. They were in awe of how Noah begged them to take him in, but Gavin's sudden response shocked them more. "Get up," Gavin uttered blankly as he sighed. He even looked up and prevented Noah's surprised eyes at him. "In this clan, we don't make a person kneel to us." He added. Joy—that was what Larisa felt while staring at Noah who was still crying. She just found herself bursting into silent tears. Gabe quickly went beside her and caressed her back. Noah looked at Gavin's hand before he slowly accepted it as tears continued to escape from

He couldn't help but to feel anxious when they are not coming back yet."First, Gabe won't let your father lay his finger on her. Second, you should be the one who knows Larisa more. She will never step back to your father," Leo answered as he chuckled. He never gets anxious in situations like this. Leo knows that Larisa will definitely scare Gabriel Valestine by just looking at him. "Yeah, that's right." He uttered as he breathed out. "What are those?" He asked when he saw all the drawings of the designs for the engagement."Oh, it's for their engagement. Gabe's parents couldn't wait anymore so they decided to make a move now without waiting for Gabe and Larisa." "They like Larisa so much for Gabe, don't they?" Noah commented and chuckled. "The first time they saw her, they already liked her for him." Leo replied. Larisa captivated them that easily for Gabe. "Next time, don't le

She's in front of the vanity while staring at herself, stunning with her red off-shoulder gown. It was silk, as always. The dagger that Noah gave her was in her grip. For some reason, she feels anxious. Why does it feel like something bad will happen? Her heart was pounding aloud in nervousness. But she knew that she was not nervous to face all the people. She was nervous about something that she couldn't figure out. "What's the matter?" Gabe then showed in front of the mirror, staring at her. "Nothing," she replied and forced a tiny smile. "I know you well, Larisa." Gabe said as he blew out a deep sigh. "I don't know. I feel nervous…I feel like something not good will happen," she said and shook her head. "Maybe because every time we celebrate something, an incident always happens." Gabe said and chuckled. He's right. Everytime they celebrate so

Everyone began to panic again as the Valestine attacked on their engagement day. The sound of gunshots was echoing, filling the entire place. The Clybornes are now holding their guns, exchanging bullets with the Valestine who were now trying to escape from them. "You fvcking assh*le," Amber uttered firmly with rage from her eyes when she was able to shoot Gabriel Valestine on his shoulder. She was shivering in anger. How can he kill his own son? There was Larisa, her world suddenly turned slow. Beyond the chaos and different screams from the people around her, it seems like she couldn't hear anything. Her world was shattering into a million pieces while Noah was on the ground, covered with his own blood that was spreading on the floor. She was indeed lost for words. Her mind was not functioning. She feels like a deaf when she can't hear anything. "N-Noah," she c

    Epilogue"You look so beautiful," Gabe's mother said and held her hand. They are already inside the car, waiting. Gabe and the others were already inside the Cathedral Church. Larisa smiled the softest as his mother praised her. "Are you nervous?" She asked. Well, she could tell it by her face. "I am," she replied. Her heart was drumming heavily. It feels like she's a student who was being asked by her own teacher about a certain topic in the class. Her hands were cold. How is she gonna walk on the aisle? What should she do inside once she sets foot? She was indeed agitated and overthinking about many things. "You know what, every bride feels like that. But you know what you should just think of once you enter the church?" She asked with a lovely smile. "Remember how you met him. Remember how your story began. Remember all those happy memories that you've spent with him and remember how the two of you overcame all the problems that you encountered along the way," his mother look

She got justice in her own hands for her family and for Noah. All of a sudden, she just felt feeble as if she was able to release all the rage. "Larisa!" It was David. The moment he sat foot inside the abandoned place, he saw the different blood of the Valestine around. And there was Lucinda Valestine in front of Larisa, lifeless. The gun from his hand fell from his grip. He quickly ran towards Larisa who was bent in her knees. "Are you okay?" He asked. She didn't speak. Only a tiny smirk drew on her lips. "I killed them," she uttered. "But even if I do, I cannot still see my parents…my family that they killed," she mentioned with bitterness and pain. "David," Gabe called. "Leo," he simply said. He quickly stood up and ran towards them a bit far from Larisa. "Hey, you okay?" David asked Leo. "I am," he utte

Larisa kept walking repeatedly while trying to ponder a lot. Estevan was talking with the IT men. While Gabe and Gavin were talking about where they could possibly bring his parents. "There's nothing in the car. They didn't leave anything that we can use to track them," Estevan said as he took a heavy breath. "B*llsh*t," Gabe cursed, was near to hit the wall with his fist. "Where could they possibly bring them?" Larisa mumbled to herself while walking endlessly, thinking of all the places that the Valestine used to do their transactions. "Can you stop? You look like Gabe when he's anxious," Gavin commented, annoyed by her. "Shut up. I'm trying to remember all the places that the Valestine used to use," she replied and continued walking there as if that was helping her to figure it out. "They are putting an end to this," Ambe

"What should I do? I only know how to bake. Would you be fine eating sweets everyday when we get married?" They both laughed with that thought. "I can cook, you don't have to worry." He said while shaking his head. Larisa looked at the time on her wrist watch. "You said your parents are on their way here, right?" She asked with her brows crossed. "Yeah. Dad told me that my Mom bought a lot of things for you," he mentioned. "What? She's spoiling me," Larisa commented unbelievably. She really treats her like her real daughter. "You know her. She really likes you," Gabe replied with a tiny smile before he stole a kiss from her soft lips."Where are they? They are taking too long," she uttered, and could not help but to wonder."Maybe it's just traffic. You know this country," he took a heavy breath as i

All the customers were also watching it, how Larisa Castellan took over the properties that actually belonged to her. "It's just a little revenge," David uttered as he stood up beside him. There was the Valestine, avoiding the cameras that were taking their photos. "I can't even go to the hospital and visit Amber, I'm too weak for that." Leo said and took a deep breath as he continued to serve the orders. "I heard she's not in good condition. One of the men told me that she almost died earlier, but she still fought hard to live." David discussed. Just like them, they are also worried. But all they can do is to wait and stand by until Larisa makes her move."Do you think Larisa really plans to kick them out that quick?" Leo asked while Bea and Nathan were busy. "Of course not. She probably just did it because of what happened to Amber," David replied,

Since the incident happened, Estevan didn't leave his wife's side anymore. He stayed there beside her, talking to her while holding her hand and planted kisses on it. "I was actually delighted that you were the first person I always see when I woke up from those incidents we've been through before," Larisa uttered as she took a deep sigh along with a small soft smile that flashed on her lips. Gabe reached her hand and held it tightly. "I know what he feels, I've been there." He uttered with a small smile as he turned back his eyes at Estevan inside the room. "Do you know what I always felt during those days that I was waiting for you to wake up?" He asked and glanced at her. "I felt like my world was collapsing. It feels like I'm gonna lose my mind if I lose you," he replied with a weak smile. "You were scared," she said. Gabe simply nodded at her. "

A lot of what ifs are pouring in her head. She was still stained with Amber's blood but she never wants to leave her side. "Amber Clyborne, she's my wife. Where is she?" Her eyes were captured as soon as he heard Estevan's anxious and frightened voice as he asked the nurse about her wife."Larisa!" Gavin exclaimed aloud that his voice almost echoed in the hospital. Their eyes all went at her who was standing in front of the operating room, shivering. When her eyes found Gabe, the weakness that she has been holding back for Amber finally filled her out. "What happened?" Gavin asked immediately. But before Larisa could even answer him, Gabe quickly pulled her towards him and locked her in his arms. He knows—he knows those eyes of hers. He can tell just by looking at her eyes what she feels. That is how Gabe Clyborne

"Did Amber reply?" She asked. "No. Maybe she's still busy shopping," Estevan uttered. She washed her hands on her face in frustration. "Where's that mall?" Larisa asked. "The only mall here in this city," Gavin answered instead. Larisa quickly stood up and was about to leave them behind. "Where are you going?" Gabe asked. "I'll follow her," she said. "Hey, calm down. Nothing's going to happen. My men are with her," Estevan said, making her calm. But then, her instincts tell her something that is bothering her. "Estevan, your wife is pregnant. How can you be calm there? The Valestine can quickly kill your men!" She exclaimed with frustration. They all became silent, especially Estevan. Larisa took a heavy breath and cooled herself down.

She kept her gun on her grip tightly, pointing it at Larisa. They were cornered. It was when she realized that Larisa anticipated it all. She was only waiting for them to come and she was too dumb to decide recklessly again. "We retrieve, Lucinda." Yna uttered, glaring at them. "I will wipe off that fvcking smile of yours," Candice said firmly before they slowly retrieve and leave her cake shop. Larisa watched them leave with a smirk. "You were right," Estevan said.
