Amira’s POV “Hello, I know that I am handsome, but you don't need to be so stunned,” Bryan said with a cocky smile.His voice snapped me out of my shock, and I just scoffed at him.“You wish,” I said with a sneer, and his expression immediately changed.“Amira, why are you being rude to him? I brought my friend to meet you, but you are being rude to him. Do you know who he is?” Sasha asked angrily.“He is probably an asshole that wants to get into your pants,” I replied with an innocent smile.“You better watch your mouth, bitch, or I will.”“You will what punk?” Camilla's voice interrupted him from behind us.I turned around to see her holding two glasses of wine with a very angry expression.“She was the one that was being rude to me,” he explained with a frightened expression.I can't believe I fell in love with such a punk in my last life. Well, in my defense, he was more mature than he is now.“Didn't I just warn you to stay away from her?” Cam asked Sasha, who was looking scare
Leo's POV When I saw Mrs. Talkoa wailing, I knew that they must have gotten the news of their son's death.Mr. Talkoa’s face was really satisfying to look at, and I couldn't help giving him a slight smirk.“I will kill you!” He rushed over angrily and pointed his gun at my head. I knew he didn't have the guts to pull the trigger, as he clearly knows what end will await his entire family if he acts so stupidly.I didn't have to say anything, and I just kept staring at him with a smile. Seb and five other men came in and pointed their guns at his wife, who was already shivering in fear.“I have no idea why your gun is pointed at me, but I will give you until the count of three to get your little toy off my face,” I said with a calm tone.“My son knew nothing about my plans,” he said with an emotional voice."1,” I started counting without even giving him a glance.“You really think that you are untouchable, huh?” He said this with his eyes now turning red."2,” I said with the same cal
Leo's POV As soon as I walked out of the venue, my body suddenly went weak, and I could feel a wetness on my shoulder.“You are bleeding, get into the car quickly ” Cam said worriedly.“Zach came with us, so just relax,” Seb said to her, and she immediately calmed down.“Boss, I know you have missed me a lot,” Zach said as soon as he got into the car.He is my childhood best friend, but he chose to leave the Mafia and live a normal life. Which was an impossible dream, as he only enjoyed a peaceful life for six years before the enemies he made while in the Mafia came knocking at his door.They killed his pregnant wife and two-years-old daughter, and he came to me for help with seeking revenge on them. He got his revenge, but his loved ones were lost forever.“Hey, where's your mind?” His question pulled me out of my thoughts, and I just gave him a slight smile.He quickly changed my bandage, and I was about to rest my head for a while when my phone started ringing.I saw that it was a
Leo’s POV“I am at the Talkoa’s estate or what is left of it. The only son and heir of the Talkoa family, Devan Talkoa, died yesterday and the cause of his death has been hidden by his family. His funeral was scheduled to be held this morning and their family members flew in from around the world as it is a tradition for every family member to be present for such an event.But in the early hours of the morning, the Talkoa family’s villa was burnt to ashes and none of the family members survived. The police are working hard to retrieve their bodies as I speak.The fire department chief has announced that the fire was caused by careless handling of cooking gas as the fire had started from the kitchen but this is just their speculations and more investigations are being carried out” the reporter's voice echoed in the sitting room.I turned off the television and threw the remote on the sofa. The only thing on my mind right now is Amira, who hasn’t woken up since last night.“Boss, Mr. Da
Amira’s POV I was shocked to hear his voice, and more tears kept spilling out of my eyes.“Hey, are you okay?” He asked with a slightly worried tone, but I couldn't speak as I had no control on my emotions.“You don't have to listen to whatever they say to you; I want you to know that you are not alone and that Cam, Seb, and I are always here to support you.I know this might sound pretty awkward to you because we have only known each other for a couple of days, but that wouldn't change the fact that I am always watching you and won't let anyone harm you,” he said with a serious tone.I don't know why, but I suddenly stopped crying, and I wasn't feeling as sad and lonely as before.“If you ever need anything, just tell your new housekeeper or the new gardener. They are my people that I placed in the Davis family,” he informed me, and I couldn't help getting emotional again.“Thank you,” I said with a choked-up voice.“Get some sleep; you need to go to school tomorrow morning,” he sai
Amira’s POV “Do I know you?” I asked with a confused expression, and his expression immediately turned ugly.“You should be grateful that I even took the initiative to speak to someone like you,” he said with an angry voice.“I never asked you to speak to me in the first place,” I said with a frown.“Do you know who he is?” A girl who heard what I said asked me angrily.“Do I look like I give a damn?” I asked her with a slight smile.“Some people really don't know where they belong,” the girl said while glaring at me.“That's enough; you all need to be more welcoming." Miss Scarlett said it with a frown.“And Mason, the chair lady already told me about your relationship with Amira, and I hope you will respect yourself around her,” she said to Mason with a frown.The entire class erupted in whispers, and some of the girls kept giving me bombastic side eyes, but I just kept smiling as they were too insignificant in the grand scheme of things.“Have a good day, class,” Miss Scarlett sai
Amira’s POV “Her mom committed suicide.”“Was she a psycho?”“What kind of mother kills herself and leaves her daughter alone in this world?”The voices of the other students kept entering my ears, and I felt my blood boiling in anger.If it were in my past life, I would have just cried and run away, but in this life, I am determined to fight.If anyone wants to stoop low, I will stoop even lower.“Sasha, don't you feel ashamed of yourself? You really have the nerve to be talking about my mom? If I remember correctly, your bitch of a mother seduced my dad, who was still married to my mother, and she even lied that she was pregnant with a son and kept coming to make trouble at our house.Then she lied that my mom pushed her and caused her to have a miscarriage; my good-for-nothing father didn't bother to hear my mother out and beat her, causing her to lose my unborn sibling.My mom couldn't take the pain of losing her unborn child and committed suicide!” I yelled at her with tears ru
Leo's POV “Report” I said with an urgent tone as I stared at Seb, who just walked into my office.“Boss, we traced them to the stadium but we lost them in the crowd” he reported with an anxious expression.“Lucian seems to be planning something big this time and he even wants to involve innocent people.What I don't understand is why his people will steal our guard uniforms. I know that whatever they plan to use them for will definitely not be in our favor” I said with a frown as I continued racking my head for hints.“Is there anything happening in the stadium today?” I asked with a serious tone.“Today is the grand finale of the annual talent hunt and the stadium is the venue for it” Seb replied immediately.“Tell everyone to be on guard” I ordered and he nodded before walking out of the office.I walked to the floor to ceiling window and stared in the direction of the stadium with a frown.Ring Ring!The sudden ringing of my phone drew me out of my thoughts and I absentmindedly pi
