CHAPTER 29.SOPHIE.My heart raced uncontrollably, and my hands trembled as he turned his face toward me.It was Leo! My heart skipped a beat when our eyes met, and I gulped, unable to speak. Tension coursed through my body, and I shivered involuntarily, my feet now planted on the car seat as I hugged myself, trying to shield away from the monster.“Hey, sweetheart,” Leo said with a smile. I shook my head in disbelief. No, this must be a dream. It can't be real. I am not his sweetheart.I couldn't process how he had found me or how he knew I was staying at Jenny's place. This couldn't be a coincidence; it felt like a deliberate act. A chill ran down my spine as I sat there, watching him smile at me with a sinister expression.“Adele misses you so much,” he began, and a lump formed in my throat. “What kind of mother leaves her daughter for so long without any promise of coming back, huh?”My body froze, panic racing through my mind. How did he...? Why was he...?I tried to speak, but m

CHAPTER 31VINCENZO I can't quite figure out if I'm more angry that she betrayed me or that I stupidly trusted her so easily.She promised to keep it to herself and not say anything during the interview, only for her to sell out the information.“Vin, do you have anyone in mind?” Niko asked, concerned.I just sighed. I know who it is. It’s Sophie who betrayed my trust. The only ones who knew about my family were Niko, Scott, and Mrs. Hills. I know they would never talk about my family to the media. They have been working for over two decades and would never do anything like that.So all fingers point to my little kitten I’m beginning to get used to.“No,” I said, turning away from him. “I don't know who did this. I need you to take down the news immediately and shut down whatever news station birthed the rumors.”Niko gave a shaky nod and left. Right now, I need to be alone and think thoroughly about what to do next.It might look like a minor case right here, but it's a major one. N

CHAPTER 33 SOPHIE."Vin, Vin, Vinci… please, you need to—" My voice trailed off as he abruptly cut the call. A deep wave of defensiveness washed over me.I nervously glanced at Leo, my eyes darting around as my whole body tensed up.He laughed, "You really think he was going to come save you? Listen up, Sophie: right now, Vincenzo only wants to kill you, and I’m sure his family feels the same way. You should be thankful I'm here to save you.""Call me 'savior,' bitch!" he shouted, releasing his feet from the brakes. He increased the speed, swerving the car from side to side, making me jump in my seat.My hands trembled as I replayed Vincenzo's words in my mind. Was I really revealing important information about his family? I shook my head. No, I couldn't have done that. I would never betray him, especially since I didn't even know his family well enough to share anything vital. This had to be a misunderstanding.The realization hit me: Vincenzo couldn't save me. I was alone now, left

CHAPTER 34 VINCENZO About thirty minutes later, I was done smoking and drinking, so I headed to the bathroom for a quick bath before driving over to Naples, where my family was staying. I needed to meet them and explain what really happened. As the water poured over my head, I kept thinking of a good excuse that would be suitable when I got home. I couldn't tell them I confided in a woman. That would not only make me seem weak, but knowing the Bianchi family, they would dig around and find out who gave out the information and who she was.And that is one thing I don't want to do. I really don't want to betray Sophie that way.That bitch is my business to take revenge on, not theirs. As much as she messed up, I still want her alive and breathing so she can live the rest of her life in regret. My family would want her dead, and death is too good for her right now, knowing the irreparable damage she has done to my family name.Minutes later, I stepped out of the bathroom to the rington

CHAPTER 35SOPHIEI wondered if he really meant what he just said about liking my family if I said a word to the cops.But then the incident of cutting my credit cards and stopping my mum's hospital payments when I left flashed back in my head.There is nothing this monster can't do, but I have to take my chances and leave this car.Telling the cops that I was kidnapped will be my only escape route right now.It's now or never. I narrowed my eyes forward and saw a lot of police officers at the front. It looked like some of them were not just searching the cars; they were also searching the surroundings. Something must have happened for them to be all over the place like this.Leo drove slowly as he approached the checkpoint where he would be searched.I felt my heart racing with fear and anticipation. My hands were starting to tremble, and I clenched my fists slowly, trying to calm myself down.Leo didn't notice my pain and fears; his eyes were fixed on the area of police officers in

CHAPTER 36VINCENZOWhen we arrived at the Bianchi family mansion, I hesitated before stepping out of the car.“Vin?” Niko called out to me. “The news is still not taken down. Do you think we should tackle that first, then come back later to see the family?”I breathed in. “Don’t worry about the news anymore. That bastard would never take it down. Besides, even if it gets taken down now, it has already done the damage they wanted it to do. The whole world now knows more about the Bianchi family. Let it go. I want you to find out how they got the information in the first place.”Niko nodded his head in approval, and then I stepped out of the car and started to go inside.I was a little nervous; I didn’t know how they’d all react. I wasn't entirely scared of what they would do, but they were still family, and they could overstep sometimes. In this situation, if they overstepped, I wouldn't be able to do anything. Right now, all I needed to do was apologize to them and find out who leake

CHAPTER 36EMMA I stepped away from Leo. “He kidnapped me!” I screamed again in a shaky voice. “We are divorced; we are no longer married. He is an abusive freak—please don't let him take me back there.”The officers exchanged furtive glances at each other, as if they believed me, but the next moment, they just walked off, allowing Leo to come closer to me.“Come on, baby, come on,” he said in a low and sweet voice, urging me to go with him. But I instinctively stepped away slowly, my heart racing and my hands trembling. This was it; if the policeman couldn't save me, then I was done for. I couldn't even run away from here. If I did, that would only cement his claims that I was mentally ill, and they would all try to bundle me back into his car. Leo smiled as he walked up to me. Once he reached me, he held my hand carefully. He whispered, “Bitch! You think you could outsmart me on this one? Jokes on you, Sophie.” I swallowed hard, a cold chill running down my spine as my life flashe

CHAPTER 37SOPHIELater that day, Jason took me to his house after he had arrested Leo. Though a part of me was still skeptical about Leo's arrest. He had been threatening Jason all the way to the police van, promising him that he would regret it. Leo's family is one of the wealthiest in the city, and I know how much influence they hold in society. A part of me is quite scared that he might try to sabotage Jason's job or role in the police force.Sitting in Jason's car, my gaze was fixed outside; I couldn't bring myself to look at his face. I avoided eye contact with him, even inside the car. I wondered how he felt after witnessing the scene between me and Leo, especially after I had flaunted that stupid wedding ring.Looking down at my fingers, I quickly took off the ring and threw it out the window.From the corners of my eyes, I could see that Jason was a little terrified by the way I forcefully removed the ring and tossed it away.Even inside Jason's car, the only thoughts on my m

CHAPTER 83 SOPHIE. My body tensed up, and my muscles turned rigid with fear. When his hands ran around my shoulders again, I shivered. I wondered who the hell he was. He wasn't just a mere Robert. Something wasn't adding up. How did he know Vincenzo so well, or was he just trying to guess, perhaps just a coincidence? “What do you think, dear?” He finally let me go and proceeded to sit back in front of me. I felt a deep wave of relief wash over me. I took the opportunity to drag my seat back and pushed myself forward, forcing my feet to stand even if my legs were now shaky. I felt a chill run down my spine, raising the hairs on the back of my neck. “With all due respect, sir, like I said earlier, I'm not interested,” I reminded him. Letting out a sigh, I moved to walk out. “If you'll excuse me, I would love to leave.” “Not so quickly, Sophie.” He jerked up from his chair and quickly made his way to me. “Come on, why are you suddenly acting tough, huh? Vincenzo can hit, and I can't

CHAPTER 82 SOPHIE I still can't believe that Robert tried to come all up on me. For a second, I thought he was a responsible guy with the way he stood up for me against Emma. Asshole! Did he really ask me to come bounce on his dick? Ewww! It was time to go home, and I packed up my things, ready to cruise in my new car. I was no longer staying in the company's lounge; I would be living in a short-let apartment down the street until I was able to scout for a house. Staying in the company lounge had always been a hassle with the crowd of coworkers who had just moved in. I love my space, and staying there only made my space public. Once I was done, I picked up my car keys and made my way to the garage to get my car and drive back home. From afar, I could hear the sound of a car engine. When I looked, it was Robert. He revved his car before driving out of the lane and taking a U-turn to head toward the gate. Unlike every other day when he was done with work, he stopped at my desk to giv

CHAPTER 81 SOPHIE The tension in the room was palpable. I could feel the atmosphere shift from what it was a few minutes ago, and right now I couldn't tell why I didn't feel very comfortable drinking with Robert. Aside from the fact that I knew Emma would go around spreading different stupid rumors, I just felt like Robert wasn't really genuine. I love to come to my job and do what I have to do. Once I'm done, I leave and don't get into a personal relationship with my boss or even my colleagues.I stayed still, sipping my wine silently. The only sound that could be heard was that of the wine pouring down Robert’s throat. He flashed me a smile and dropped his cup on the table. “I didn't know you were going to smash it so easily. How is it with Vincenzo? I have heard a lot of tales about him, and I'm surprised he had such a good sense of humor when you were interviewing him. Is there anything you think I should know?”I raised my brows. “I don't get you, sir?”He chuckled. “Come on, S

CHAPTER 80SOPHIE Someone like Emma calling me a whore is quite diabolical.I mean, that is her profession. She does that for a living. I see what she wears to get Robert’s attention, just like she was screwing our former boss, and now she stands in front of me accusing me of whoring myself out to get a BMW?Such a clumsy bitch. I just rolled my eyes and chose not to engage with her. I wouldn't give her the satisfaction of seeing me riled up. I'm just a new car owner. I will let broke bitches holler. That is the best they can do. Barking dogs don’t bite.“What?” she scoffed. “You can’t speak anymore? Cat got your tongue now, huh?”“Go on, bitch! Speak! I see you have no evidence to refute my claims,” she snarled, and I just rolled my eyes.Soon, the door creaked open, and it was Robert. Every staff member quickly returned to their tasks, scurrying back to their respective seats now that the CEO was here. Emma, on the other hand, forced a smile and leaned in close to my desk like she

CHAPTER 79 SOPHIE “Hello, are you missing Sophie?” One of the airport workers walked up to me and asked as I alighted from the jet.I stopped scrolling through my phone to find an Uber and turned to him. “Yes, I'm Sophie. Any problems?”Before he spoke, I refocused on my phone, searching for the closest Uber from the airport to my workplace. I just knew Emma wouldn't spare me if I dared to show up late today. She hadn't seen me for seven consecutive days, and I'm sure her patience was wearing thin.That clueless bitch!“Ma'am, your car is parked that way,” the young man said, pointing to the garage. My eyes followed his gesture, and I saw a covered car. I gulped before turning back to him.“I’m sorry I could have come out earlier, but I was a little busy and didn’t notice when you dropped off. Mr. Vincenzo said you have the keys; I’m going to open it up for you now.”For a moment, it felt like I was in a fairy tale. My face lit up with excitement as I approached the car, and the man

CHAPTER 78VINCENZOI know something is wrong, but she isn’t willing to speak to me about it. After she went upstairs, her attitude and everything changed. When we came into the party, she was very much excited. What changed?I tried to talk to her in the car, but she wasn't even listening. Her mind was elsewhere. It hurt to see my kitten this way. Just when I thought I had gotten her back, now there’s a last-minute misunderstanding. She keeps saying it’s about work, but I know that it isn’t. Sophie is a resilient woman, and everything that happens at work would never affect her daily life or ruin her mood.It was at the party. I'm sure of it. I’m a hundred percent certain that something went down at the party, and I can't wait to call my mother and ask her if she knows any of the people who met Sophie and what they said to her that made her feel this way. But for now, I wanted to make sure I gave her the new car keys. After our misunder

CHAPTER 77SOPHIE I walked out with my heart pounding in my chest. I took the stairs, walking very fast as if scared she might be trailing me. I barely even knew her or her name to explain what she had just told me. For now, I couldn't stop to think about what she said. All I could think of was getting the hell out of this party. I didn't feel like staying anymore; I just wanted to leave. It seemed like the majority of the guests were psychos. I took the hallway leading to the elevator, and after a few minutes, it beeped. I pressed the button, waiting patiently for it to slide open. Once it did, I made my way out. On reaching downstairs, where the main party was happening, I met Vincenzo. He quickly approached me with a concerned look. “What happened, Sophie? I’ve been looking for you all over the place. Did you get lost coming down here?”I shook my head and forced a smile. “No, I didn’t. I just stopped to use the restroom; that was all that to

CHAPTER 76SOPHIE I forced a smile, turning to Vincenzo, and he nodded, giving me the go-ahead to follow his mother. My heart skipped a beat as I followed her. She held tightly to my hand as she navigated through the crowd of guests, and finally, we were in the hallway. She let me go and heaved a deep sigh of relief."Have you met Foxy?" she asked, and I nodded."Yes, ma'am. I met her a few minutes ago, and we exchanged pleasantries."She nodded and flashed me a smile before we continued. I couldn't really tell where she was taking me. It felt like I was now part of the family with the way they were welcoming me in. For the next couple of minutes, we walked down a large, straight hallway, and then we finally arrived at the large lounge on the right. Once we got there, she pushed the door open, and a deep wave of nervousness washed over me when I saw the crowd inside.It looked like there was another party happening in there. I couldn't quite figure out what was going on. The next min

CHAPTER 75.SOPHIE The world seemed to pause. The room fell into a heavy silence, broken only by gasps. Vincenzo wasn’t lying; everyone was holding their breath as they stared at me. I froze for a moment, his eyes piercing into mine—both shocked and amused.“Oh my goodness!” The MC’s voice snapped everyone back to the stage. “That was spectacular! Is there anyone who can do better than this?”He looked around before continuing, “Okay then, it’s sold to the damsel sitting over there.”The room erupted into applause, and I felt a thrilling twist of excitement in my stomach. It felt exhilarating to have so many eyes on me, and bargaining at the auction was thrilling.But Vincenzo's face twisted into a frown as he leaned closer. “You’re making a lot of people aware of who you are. Right now, I feel like punishing you!”I smiled and rolled my eyes. “Go ahead and do it. I want to be punished for acting like a child.”He scoffed and looked away for a moment before grabbing my arm. “Let’s go
