Author's POV."How dare you?" He grunts as he stares at her with a glare.Chloe was stunned, she didn't believe that he'll ever lay his hands on her. It was more like a dream to her.No man had ever raised her hands on her not even her own husband."Eduardo you slapped me?" She asked."I..I'm really sorry I didn't mean to do that, I was just so mad that I lost control of my hands, I'm really sorry." He said."You had the guts to slap me?" She asked."I said I'm sorry. What are you going to do about it huh?" He asked."I... I can't believe this." She said in surprise.He walked closer to her. "I just want that to be as some hints to you, more like what I can do in the future if you ever dare to disobey me or sleep with other men." He said and walked closer to her. Clutching her waist in a rough manner. "I just want you to know that you're mine, and you would be mine forever, nothing will ever break us apart, I hope I'm making sense?" He asked as Chloe only stared at him in surprise."
Sophia's POV Chloe had run out of words to justify herself. She was looking for an excuse that soothes the reason why she was here but she couldn't find any, it was quite obvious.I waited for her to say something. She must have had something to do with Eduardo. Because there was no explanation as to why she would be in front of his room."C'mon tell me Chloe? Do you have a business to do with Eduardo?" I asked."W...what of course, not, what business would I possibly have with someone I know nothing about?" She asked in turn."Okay, but first I need to know what you're doing here? I mean coming to see you lean at his door is giving me a lot of speculation and assumptions.""Minding your business most times Is helpful." Chloe muttered, I heard what she said clearly. She took her gaze at me, smiling as though she said nothing."You don't trust me and that is why you're assuming things that are not true at all" Chloe said to her."This is above assumptions or trust. I mean anyone would
Sophia's POVShe took her gaze at me in surprise. I was also shocked to hear Enzo say this."Enzo?" I called out in surprise."It isn't Enzo's fault." She said with a little smile. I could see the disappointments in her eyes.The tears slowly rolled down her cheeks. And it made me feel guilty. "Trust me, It's not what you're thinking." I said."You've taken him away from me, isn't that enough for you? Must you have to go as far as telling him these words?" She asked with a sad smile."I'm as stunned as you honestly, I don't know how he knew about this " I said to her."Enzo who told you this?" I asked as he pointed his hand in the direction."I can't believe you Sophia, how could you be so heartless enough to have to do something as crazy as this. I mean he's only a kid and saying all these kinds of things to him can actually make him traumatized or hate me forever." She spoke all at once..Enzo's fingers were pointing directly in my direction. I couldn't believe what was happening.
Sophia's POVShe staggered, losing balance as she made her way to the ground, luckily enough I was able to catch her halfway, obstructing her from banging her head on the floor."Chloe." I muttered as she dropped her head on my thighs. But she had gone unconscious. I could feel my heart beat against it ribs."Chloe " I called with a low tune but she gave no response."Chloe." I called again but still she gave no response as I became extremely worried, praying hard that nothing goes wrong with her."Chloe are you hearing me, please wake up." I urged her."How can she wake up when you've made her weak?" Enzo asked."C'mon go ask for help." I said."Who?" He asked.."Anyone, Eduardo or your father." I said."I'm definitely not calling eduardo.." He said and walked away.I had no time to talk to Enzo now, although I had some words to pass on to him, and I needed to do it real quick before he was totally corrupt with the words of his mother."C'mon Chloe say something, don't die on me" I b
Salvatore's POV"I don't understand what you mean doctor, her condition would determine her fate?" He asked as the doctor gave a nod."Can you elaborate, I am still confused with your choice of words " I said.The doctor came closer. "There's a tumor in her brain, you know that right?" The doctor asked as Salvatore gave a nod."Good, now aside from getting depressed and sad, fainting is the fastest way to increase the injury in her brains and cause a tumor." The doctor said."And the bad part of a tumor is that it cannot be treated easily except doing surgery on her brains which can cause immediate death if any mistakes should be made. " the doctor said as Salvatore nodded."Hmm!" I exclaimed as I took my gaze to Sophia who said nothing other than to listen silently to the doctor.I took my gaze to the doctor. "Do all you can to save her life please. This is detrimental to us. She's the mother of my child and if anything happens to her then the little kid will be traumatized." I said.

Sophia's POVThe news was more like a bombshell to me. I couldn't believe what the doctor said."Y...you mean to say that she is going to be paralyzed?" I asked out of concern as the doctor gave a nod."What? How's that possible?" I asked."The tumor has an effect on her in a bad way and that is why she would be physically paralyzed." The doctor said.I felt so bad having to hear such awful news. I never wished for something like this to ever happen."So doctor what do we do now? Are you trying to tell me that there's nothing we can do right now?" Salvatore asked."Yes, there's nothing we can do for now, I'm sorry." The doctor said and left.Salvatore turned to me. I slowly dropped my head down. The whole situation was like weighing me down, and it looked more as though I was guilty."Believe me Salvatore, I never did anything not her, all of this was a misconception." I said again. "It's okay, we're still going to investigate this, I still don't understand what is happening you know
This was the first time I ever witnessed him punishing his son."Get out and go to your room now." He yelled as Enzo began crying as he ran into the mansion.I felt so bad seeing what happened. No one needed to tell me that the relationship between me and Enzo was destroyed. He now saw me like the Devil in his family, I really felt bad."Pl... Please Salvatore don't do this to him, he is only a child and moreover he was only expressing how he felt without realizing that he was actually disrespecting his elder, I am really sorry" Chloe said."You don't need to beg on his behalf, I am not doing anything wrong to him other than to discipline him, so there's no need for you to beg on his behalf." Salvatore said."Please don't punish him I beg you." Chloe said holding onto his trousers."Like I said you don't need to beg, I am only trying to discipline him, he needs it." Salvatore said and out of the anger he felt inside he left.I stood there not uttering a single word. What I was feeling
Author's POV After the incident with Chloe, the relationship between Sophia and Salvatore became even stronger.Eduardo could no longer chase after her as he had learnt that she was pregnant.It has been over 8 months and the pregnancy was bigger and everyone around now knew that she was pregnant.Even little Enzo knew that she was pregnant and had decided to take her like his mom in order to go over the trauma of having to know that his own mother wanted to take his life."Mother " He called as he ran to her after coming back from school."What is it my dear?" She asked when he came closer to her."Look." He said as she took her gaze to his accessment file to see that he had the best grades."Wow, this is good Enzo." She said as she hugged him tightly."You know that it was all because of you mom, you made this possible." He said with a smile as she smiled."It's all your hard work dear""And your determination to make me work." He responded as they both chuckled."How's my little a
Sophia's POVI really didn't understand why he should be this caring to me, he was always being flirty and so I wasn't expecting his kind gesture all of a sudden."I'm fine " I muttered."Thank you so much for saving her." Salvatore said as he nodded.He took his gaze to the chemical that burnt the chair. "I can't believe that Chloe would be this wicked, how can she think of such an idea to kill a human." I asked."What of Damien?" I asked Salvatore."Yes we have to go look for where my son is, I don't know where that woman has taken my son to." He said."Please we need to look for Enzo at all costs, I am more concerned about him than anyone." I said."Eduardo takes her to the car while I go look for my son." He instructed."N...no, please I want to follow you two." I said."But you're pregnant." Salvatore without taking note of his words blurted out.Everyone now knows that I am pregnant, and there was no difference now if I tried to hide it from anyone. I could see the disappointme
Sophia's POVIt was the remote i saw her holding and the other was a knife."You want a slow death right?" She asked as I stared at her blankly, to be honest I still didn't understand what was happening.I wondered how a remote would cause my death."Can you explain to me?" I asked in confusion as she took her gaze up, I slowly followed them to find out that above me was a big bucket, but what I didn't know what it's contents."Do you know what that is?" She asked as I nodded negatively.She gave a smirk as she came closer to me. "It's called fluoroantimonic acid." She muttered with a smirk."What?" I asked as more tears leaked out of my eyes. "It's a kind of corrosive chemical that causes severe burn, it is worse than fire as it melts down anything it comes in contact with." She said in a smirk."S... so what are you planning to do with me?" I asked.."I want to melt you down, I mean that'll really be the sweetest death ever, don't you think?" She asked as more tears escaped from my
Sophia's POVI was scared, I could feel my legs shaking without me even making a move.I felt death whispering to my ears as the knife kept on dangling on my belly.She began tearing my clothes with the knife as all I did was to beg her, but she wasn't ready to listen to me."I begged you right? I told you to leave him and that I was ready to do everything to make you happy staying on your own, but you were just too selfish to leave him." She said."I have told you that I'll leave him, just spare me and my baby I beg you, I am ready to stay without Salvatore." I said with a pleading tune."But I want to talk to your baby, he's Salvatore child right?" She asked but I said nothing as I kept on breathing in hard breaths."I'm asking you a question." She groaned as I nodded briskly."Good, and so in that case I want to talk to him, if I can't have some time with Salvatore then I can surely have some time with him, don't you think?" She asked."My baby has no business with this, so please
Sophia's POV I felt weak that even my eye lids were hard for me to get them opened. I just felt weak deep in my bones, but then I struggled with all effort to get up, atleast that was what I could do right now to help myself. After trying hard I was able to lift my eye lids open to see where I was. The room looked somehow dirty and dark more like an uncompleted building. "What am I doing here?" I asked myself as I took my gaze around and then got to find out that I was tied to a chair. I couldn't move any part of my body regardless of how hard I tried I was just unable to make any movements. "What's happening?" I muttered. I was too weak In a way that I could not even make any movements. It was an impossibility for me to make any move, as I was tied and at the same time weak. "Arrgh." I groaned as I kept on trying my best to get out of the grip of this chains. Seeing that I was getting hurt by this, I gave up and decided not to make any movements, in order not to injure mysel
Salvatore's POV I was at the meeting with my board members, as we were discussing the growth of my company. I was not only centered at the underground business but I had a company that made so much money. Although the mafia business was my main source of income, I kind of used this for a cover up. "Sir our resources are slowly depreciating and we need adequate.finds to raise it at equilibrium, we were the top five biggest companies in America but presently we are suffering from funds to renew our resources, and if I must say, this is really having a downgrade on us" my manager said. I frowned. "What the hell are you trying to say huh? I mean what the fuck is happening to the funds I invested in that company this is the third time I am having complaints this year about the funds.'" I complained. "Now tell me? What the hell is happening to all the money I invested in that company? Because this is more or less compared to a case of fraud." I said as the other members took their gaze
Sophia's POV I was hoping that it wasn't what my instincts were whispering to me. "Who's there?" I asked. "It's me." The voice replied. My heart skipped. It was Eduardo again. What the hell was happening to that man, why the hell is he stalking me. My hands went to my phone. I thought of calling Salvatore too. But I was having second thoughts. What the hell would I tell Salvatore if he asks me why I was calling him? The thoughts were quite bothersome. "Can you open the door for me?" He asked. "What do you want from me?" I asked with anger. "You know what I want, so 'stop acting innocent and open the door for me" he said from outside as my heart beats increased even more. At this point I was now thinking of what to do in order to make him go away. "Can you open the door now?" He asked. "I am not in the mood to talk to anyone, please let me." I responded to him. "I promise that this won't take any minutes of your time I just want to ask you something that's all." He repli
Sophia's POV.I became so worried when I learned that she knows that I am pregnant.Of all people, it was her that knew about my pregnancy, and this wasn't something I'd be happy with.I knew what she was capable of doing, I really didn't know what to do now, she now knows that I am pregnant and she was capable of doing anything just to get rid of my baby, and that was what I was trying to avoid, I can't let her lay even a single hand on my baby.The thoughts were just too much that I didn't realize the moment Chloe had walked her way into the room with her wheelchair.The moment she walked in, I was moved by her presence."Hello." She said with a smile standing at the threshold."Hi." I said, feeling startled by her presence.She rolled in. "You look startled, hope my presence isn't startling you?" She asked."Why? I see you everyday so why would I get startled by your presence?" I asked."Because you're guilty, you know exactly what you did, and so you tend to be startled." She repl
Chloe's POVI said nothing to him as he moved closer to me. "You think you're smart right? You now want to do things on your own?" He asked."Just let go of me, let me be Eduardo." I said as I stood to my feet. He clutched my wrist. "I have helped you up to this extent and you want to betray me? You want to fight against them without my help?" He asked."Yes, I don't, I do not value your help anymore so I think it's high time we sever ties. I can do this on my own." I said as he clutched my throat. "How dare you speak such rubbish?" He asked."Let me go Eduardo, I don't want to partner with you again." I said."You have to. We have the same mission and so you need my help, without my help then there's nothing you can do in this mansion." He said still holding onto my neck.I was able to stretch my hand over to the bottle and clutch it, and without wasting time I broke it on his head and he let go of me clutching his head in pain.He groaned as he held his head..lI stepped back. "If
