POV: Victoria “Stop whining and let me think, Victoria. Your sister is going to be fine. If he wanted her dead, she would be dead already. I know Dominic like I know the back of my palm, I’m going to make sure nothing happens to her, just trust me!” He told me sternly.“Well, it didn’t look that way when he was kicking your ass out there in the street. He hates your guts and you just made him more pissed off at Ciara. Even if he wasn’t planning to hurt her before, now he’s going to fucking kill her because of you. Why didn’t you tell me he hates you so much, what the hell did you do to make him hate you so much!” I asked him angrily. He’s been quiet since we got back and it’s making me so angry because I don’t know what I’m going to tell Mom when she gets back home. She would be so devastated to find out that Claire has been abducted by the mafia Lord. She would be more furious to know that Dominic just made Claire’s situation worse by getting involved. At first, I didn’t want to co
POV: Victoria “What are you talking about, where is your Mom?” he asked me furiously. I told him I had no idea where she was and he sprinted out of the house the next minute yelling some incoherent curses that I couldn’t hear properly. I was shocked at his actions and I followed him immediately because I thought he was going to drive out to search for her. But he didn’t run towards his car, he ran towards the security room and I wondered what he was up to. “Get her on the phone, She mustn’t go near Dominic’s house, he could hurt without thinking that he is her mother. I’m going to handle it, you all need to chill out and let me do my thing.” He scolded me furiously. “She has my diamond necklace and ring, I think we should give her a chance to speak with him. With my ring and necklace, I’m sure she could get her off his hands. No one would resist such luxury, everyone has a price you know. I would have offered them to him if he had listened to me when I went to speak with him. But
POV: Victoria “No ma’am, I haven’t been able to get her location. My contact said she did not come near Dominic’s residence. I have given the order for her phone to be traced. Soon we will pinpoint her phone location and send some boys to get her.” He responded. “Get some rest, Miss Victoria, you need to take care of your body so you don’t break down or come down with an illness. I’ll come to you with anything I find out, I’ll be sure to get your mother's location before the next hour.” He advised.“That’s okay, I’ll be waiting patiently for your call. Please keep me in the loop when your boss gets through to the Don. I want to know everything he says to Dominic, I want to know if they fight again or if they manage to settle their differences. Tell me everything!” I told him eagerly, but he didn’t respond to me. He just hung up on me without a word.“Rude bastard!” I let out angrily. He’s just as annoying as his boss. No wonder both guys have been friends for so long, they are so al
POV: Victoria “No ma’am, I’m coming with you. Mr Hawkins will have my head if I let you go alone. I need to be there by your side, I have to make sure you are okay and safe. Just wait outside the house, I’ll pick you up in a few minutes. And don’t say one word to anyone, it appears that we have a mole.” He told me sternly, stating exactly what I had in mind before ending the call. I went back to the security room to delete everything I was doing in there. It’s been confirmed that we have a mole, I would hate if anyone detects my movement because I left evidence for them to find. They must not know that I know they are still bullying my mom. I don’t want to even conclude that she is being bullied, I would love to hear from her before I conclude that she is in danger. If I find out that she is being bullied and threatened again, I’ll make sure I teach Dad a lesson this time. I waited a few minutes for Carl, but he got here later than I expected and he didn’t bother to explain why he
POV: Victoria Mom knelt in front of them sobbing and begging, ignoring Cindy’s ranting. They still hadn’t spotted Carl and I because we were standing so distance away and the flowers were hiding us from their view. From their talks, I discovered that Cindy told Dad about the diamonds and now he is threatening to sell off the company if he cannot get his hands on the diamond, my diamonds. I couldn’t see Dad from where I was standing and I wondered if he was aware of what his wife and daughter were doing to my mother. The annoying part is that mom is just kneeling and begging like a fucking urchin. That is very disappointing and annoying, to say the least. She is not acting like herself, she is not acting like the mom I know and love so much. She has always been tough and strong, she has always stood up to dad and she taught us to do the same too. She has always planned to take back the company from her dad and she is seriously working hard towards it. She has a team of lawyers worki
POV: Victoria It’s the audacity for me, like, is she trying to infuriate me to death?“You know, I thought I could pretend as if you do not exist and just move on with Mom and Claire. But it seems you have suddenly gone insane. If you think for one minute that I would ever kneel before you ever again, then you are even more delusional than I thought.” I yelled at her, hearing furiously at her. She smiled back at me, then turned to gaze at my mom, “Are you going to make her don’t, or not?” She asked Mom in a rude tone that made my blood boil. My mom looked so confused. It’s as if she doesn’t want to make me do it, but she couldn’t say anything to Cindy either. She just kept mute and started on the floor sobbing hysterically. “I’ll do it if that’s what it would take to get back my daughter, I’ll do anything you want. Just leave my daughter out of it.” Mom sobbed. She was already kneeling on the floor and she reached out to hold her feet and kiss it. But I pulled her back immediately
POV: Victoria “Austin, please!Don’t do this, please, not here, not now,” Mom sobbed, begging him, feeding his ego. He beamed with joy, enjoying every moment of it. “You should have thought about it before you brought her here.” Vera lets out rudely.“Tell her dad, tell her she is a bastard!” Cindy let out once more, smirking evilly as she did. I could sense that there was something mom was hiding from me that they knew about. But that notwithstanding, my mother does not deserve this treatment. I don’t care what she has done wrong, she just doesn’t deserve this.“You are all cowards!Cowards!” I screamed in their faces, glaring at them. “I don’t care what she has done, there is nothing you would tell me that would make me hate my mother. She doesn’t deserve this!” I yelled once more. Dad frowned deeply when I said that. I guess he is just realizing that I would never fall for their tricks. They are trying to put enmity between me and my mom, but I won’t let that happen.“You foolis
POV: Victoria “I have nothing to hide from you Victoria. I love you so much and that is all you need to know. Now answer my question immediately!Does he have anything to do with Claire’s disappearance, is he using my daughter for his business transactions?” She asked again, sounding more firm and furious. I refused to look into her eyes because I didn’t want her to see my tears. I know she doesn’t like him and she had never approved of my relationship with him. But that is not enough reason to accuse him of something so despicable. He has done nothing but rendered assistance to us. If he ever hears that he is being accused of using my sister for his business, it would infuriate him even more. It’s bad enough that I was going to pawn his diamond ring to save my sister. Now this!“That is absurd, ma’am!My boss would never stoop so low to involve himself in human trafficking. If you know anything about Raphael Hawkins, then you would know that he is a disciplined man who has fought
