Leo's POV I didn't know how to respond to her request.How do I tell her about her real family without her misunderstanding me?Should I just tell her and get it off my mind?Lots of thoughts were running through my head, and I was feeling restless.“Leo” Amira’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts, and that was when I realized that I haven't given her a reply yet.“I asked if you could help me to search for my biological father,” she repeated, but I couldn't see her expression as the light was turned off.“I will get as much information as I can,” I said while rubbing her back softly.“Promise?” She asked, and I felt conflicted.She is one of the smartest people I know, and I could already tell that she was suspecting me.“I promise to find information on your biological father and tell you as soon as possible,” I said after a few seconds.She breathed a sigh of relief and hugged me tightly.“Good night, Leo,” she said with a tired voice.“Good night, dear,” I replied to her, but my
Amira’s POV I stared at my phone, repeatedly reading the SMS while thinking of what to do.It could be a trap or it could be genuine information.I thought of informing Leo, but his current behavior seems too off, and I don't know if he will help me or try to stop me from going.After thinking for a few minutes, I decided to go alone and just take the risk. I immediately went back to my room to change my outfit.I quickly changed into a pair of jeans and a black crop top, put on my sneakers, and wore a baseball cap.I looked at myself in the mirror, and the outfit was just perfect. I didn't want to wear any complicated outfit that could restrict my movements in case of danger.I picked up my bag and put my phone and some cash in it before heading downstairs again.“Are you going to the boss's house?” Daisy asked me as soon as I walked into the sitting room.“No, I have other plans,” I simply replied to her before walking out of the house.I decided to go to the park to clear my mind.
Leo's POV I was in my office busy signing some documents when my phone suddenly vibrated, which was an indication that I had an SMS.I picked it off the table, and when I saw that it was an SMS from Amira, I frowned with a hint of worry.She has never sent me an SMS before; could it be that she has found out something about her real family?.The thought of her knowing the truth caused me to panic, and I quickly opened the text.When I saw the content of the text, I immediately picked up my jacket and hurriedly made my way out of the office.Whoever sent her that text could be real, and he could also be a fraud, someone with ill intentions.“Boss, is there something urgent?” Send asked as soon as I stepped out of my office.I just gave him my phone as I quickly made my way towards the garage. “Do you think this has something to do with Lucian?” He asked as he quickly followed me.“There is a possibility, but I doubt it. Lucian is always direct with his actions and never goes through
Sasha's POV The smell of blood filled my nostrils as i watched our driver bleeding out of his head.“What ..what …are we going to do?” Bryan asked with a shaky voice while trying to shrink himself into the car seat,if that was possible.“Shut up!” I growled at him angrily.His whining is the least thing I want to hear right now. I just want to survive and my brain seemed quite useless right now because of fear.Cold beads sweat trickled down my face as I watch the man, who was now making his way towards our car.His every step is a reminder that I might not get out of here alive.CRASH!He broke the car window with his gun and unlocked the door.“Sir.. sir ..please…please spare my life” Bryan started crying as soon as he was pulled out of the car.Another man pulled me out through the other door and forcefully threw me on the floor. An intense pain shot through my spine as I landed heavily on the ground. My arms were cut by the stones on the ground and started bleeding.The two men
Leo's POV We tracked the car to a villa in the suburbs, and it only took an hour for us to arrive.As soon as I stepped out of the car, the smell of blood wafted into my nose, and I felt a hint of panic.I saw a man cleaning a car that's filled with blood, and I gestured with my hand for Seb to bring him over.The man was very fat, and he moved very slowly, but he was very focused on what he was doing and didn't even notice our presence until Seb tapped on his shoulder.“Who...who are you?” He asked in panic and quickly shut the car door to hide the blood.Seb grabbed his collar and pulled him over to where I was standing.“Who is in the villa?” I asked with a serious tone, but he refused to answer.I immediately pulled out my gun, as I wasn't in the mood to tolerate any nonsense.“Now, let's try that again; who is inside?” I asked him while stressing every word with the gun placed on his forehead.“What the fuck?!” Seb exclaimed as he quickly took a step back from him.That was when
Amira’s POV My head felt so heavy as I tried to open my eyes; it took a few minutes for my eyes to adjust to the light.The first thing that came into my view was a white ceiling. I immediately sat up to observe the surroundings.I was on a huge bed in a very luxurious room; from the decorations alone, I knew that nothing in this room was cheap.I carefully got down from the bed and walked towards the door, but before I could get to it, I heard footsteps from outside, and it was followed by the jingling sounds of keys.I hurried back to the bed and pretended to be asleep. The door was opened, and the footsteps gradually approached the bed.The bed sank in as the person sat on the bed.“I know you are awake,” a man's deep voice came from beside me.I couldn't just continue to pretend to be asleep, so I immediately sat up with a fierce expression. I had to be prepared for any unexpected situation.I looked at the man's face, and I was too stunned to react for a while. I just kept stari
Cam’s POV The last thing I remember was going out of the house to buy Angelo's food. I kept trying to figure out what was going on and who would want to kidnap me.I stared at the two men in front of me; their auras were very strong, their eyes were cold, and there was a strong killing intent in them.I knew that even if I tried to fight my way out of this, there was no chance of success, so I decided to go with the flow until I found a good opportunity.We were in the car for about two hours before it came to a sudden stop. The two men got down and pulled me out of the car.As soon as I saw the familiar villa in front of me, I froze in shock and immediately started struggling to get away from there.The men forcefully dragged me into the mansion and threw me into a room. I looked around the room, and tears flowed down my cheeks rapidly.No…no….noI repeatedly shook my head; it was just a dream, and I will wake up soon. I kept repeating this sentence over and over again in my mind as
Leo's POV I felt so frustrated and angry as I have been trying to get through to Amira. I don't know what nonsense that bastard has filled her head with already to make her avoid my calls.“Boss, we are almost at the Gattuso mansion,” Seb informed me with a serious tone.I had to go home first to get more of my men to follow me because Ivan wasn't an easy person to deal with, but if he lays a finger on my sister, I will personally send him to hell.As soon as the car stopped at the entrance of the mansion, the armed men guarding the mansion immediately became alert as they directly pointed their guns at us.But I wasn't in the mood to deal with some useless guards, so I just moved towards the entrance of the mansion, and just as I had guessed, none of them fired.“Put down your guns; do you know who he is?” An old man's voice came from the side, and I glanced in the fire and saw the butler, whom I was very familiar with.“Uncle Mike,” I greeted him out of formality.“It's good to see
Sasha's POV “Hello everyone” I greeted weakly, and they all cast sympathetic gazes at us.“Don't be afraid, Mrs. Davis; we are here to make sure you get the justice that you deserve,” one of the reporters said with a firm tone, and the others nodded in agreement.I gave my mother a signal to speak, and she weakly held the microphone with tears threatening to fall out of her eyes.“My story is all over the internet; the pain and injustice that I had to bear is known to everyone. I ask the people to give me justice so that I can live the remaining half of my life in peace,” she said, and I handed her a handkerchief to wipe her tears.“Miss Davis, your mother said you have kidney problems?” A female reporter asked, and I gave a pitiful nod.“You said that Miss Amira is not a part of your family and that her mother ruined your relationship by pinning another man's child on your fiance; please can you elaborate?” Another reporter asked.“My husband and I had been dating since high school;
Sasha's POV I looked at the online comments and everything was in our favor. I felt immense satisfaction from seeing the numerous insults directed at Amira and her mother.“Dear, are you ready?” My mom's voice came from outside the door.I immediately opened the door and saw her in the worn-out clothes that I specifically got for the press conference.“Come in, Mom, let me help with your makeup.” I stepped aside to let her in.She seems quite nervous, which I find really annoying. I am tired of explaining the importance of this press conference to us. We can get everything we ever wanted and quietly leave the country to start our lives all over.“I dreamt of your father last night” she said and started sobbing again.He deserved what happened to him; he wanted to throw us in the streets to fend for ourselves.I couldn't help remembering everything that happened that day.FLASHBACK!Two days after I kidnapped Amira, my father came home in anger. I don't know how he found out about it
Amira’s POV I went back to the house, and Anna directed me to a room that had been specially arranged for me.“Feel at home, dear,” she said with a smile, and I smiled back and nodded my head before closing the door.I had to prepare for school resumption; my things were still in the Davis family house, so I had to go get them.I decided to go to the Davis house tomorrow morning, as it was already too late for me to go there now.Knock knock!Half an hour later, there was a sudden knock on the door, and I immediately opened it.I saw Asher standing outside with a polite smile.“Can I come in?” He asked me, and I took a step to the side to let him in.“Is there something that you need my help with?” I asked him after closing the door.“Not really, I just wanted to let you know that the school you were attending before had some issues, and as a result of these issues, it has been shut down.All students are to transfer to new schools, and my father wants me to take care of your transfe
Amira’s POV We arrived at a huge villa and as soon as our car stopped, lots of people came out of the villa to greet us with smiles.“Welcome home princess” A woman rushed forward and held me in a tight hug.“Um …hello” I said with a smile when she finally pulled away from me.“Welcome home” “She has her mother's eyes”“Massimo will be so happy”Everyone stared at me, the men were happy while the women were doing their best to control their tears.“Come on everyone, let's go inside” Anna said and we all went into the villa.As soon as I stepped in, I saw a table filled with different cuisines.“We didn't know what you would like, so we made a lot” the woman that hugged me earlier said while looking at me with a doting expression.She has this motherly aura that makes one comfortable and relax.“Let's eat first” Carlos said with a smile and we all headed to the dining area.The table couldn't contain everyone, so some had to sit on plastic chairs.“Is she here already?” A girl's voic
Amira’s POV I took a deep breath and slowly walked down the stairs. I heard cheerful voices coming from the sitting room.“Oh, here she is; this is my niece Amira." My uncle introduced me with a smile.“Dear, this is the heir to the Alfredo family, Zain Alfredo and his parents,” he said to me as he led me to the sofa while still maintaining his gentle smile.“You can sit with Zain." He wasted no time and immediately pushed me towards the young man, who has been quiet all since I entered the room.I sat down close to the man and observed him for a while. He is quite handsome and has an overwhelming aura, but he was nothing compared to my Leo.“She is really beautiful, and with the combination of hers and my son's genes, my grandchildren will be a sight to behold,” Madam Alfredo said with a smile.This old lady must be very sick. I haven't even agreed to marry her son, but she is already talking about grandchildren.“Who says I am going to marry your son?” I asked her with a frown.As
Amira’s POV I have been here for a week now, but no one from the Davis family has called to check up on me. I guess they don't care about my life or death.My uncle's family treats me very well; the servants are polite, and his wife and daughter are always welcoming, but I always have a strange feeling deep down in my heart that I can't explain.“Mimi, let's go watch a movie." Joan's voice came from outside, and I quickly tidy up before she pushed the door open.Sometimes, I feel like she was just here to monitor everything that I do. I started having this feeling after I saw her snooping through my phone.“I am ready, let's go,” I said with a smile as we walked out of my room and headed for the'movies room’ as she calls it.She said that she loved to watch movies a lot, so my uncle built her a personal cinema at home. Oh, did I forget to mention that she brags a lot? She does it subtly, but I think she always feels the need to remind me who the through princess was in the family.W
