“And? Is that enough?” Elena’s hands shook as she blinked and waited for the detective’s response.

When Detective George and the NYPD had reached out to her after the interview about her case, she had been heavily skeptical. Explaining plainly that she wanted nothing to do with them but Marco had calmed her down and simply convinced her to change her mind.

Weeks later, sitting across from the detective in her fancy dress and heels, she felt nothing but gratitude. To Marco for convincing her and to the police for caring enough to help.

“Yes,” The detective tapped his laptop to pause the video and stared at her intently. “I don’t know what you did to get your hands on this video but you just turned this entire case,”

Elena let out a heavy breath she didn’t realize she had been holding. “S..she can get tried?”

“Yes,” The detective gave a nod. “She’ll be tried for murder and attempted murder, seeing as the original recipient of the attack was you. Your sister was just the victim,”

    Chapter 85Elena looked from the reflection of her makeup mirror, watching as they piled filming equipment into the living room of her old house. From where she sat she could hear the low grumblings amongst the staff. Bitch. Spoilt. Princess.They called her several names, cursing her for changing the location and plan at the last minute.“Ignore them,” Faith, her makeup and hair lady smiled. “They’re just being silly because of the stress,”“I do,” Elena sighed. “But I can’t help it. I feel a dreadful sense of foreboding towards that warehouse,”The thought of her kidnapping flashed through her and she shuddered. “Something about starting the documentary there doesn’t feel right. Besides our first filming location and dates was public knowledge. Sure, we’d have security out there but anyone can slip and sabotage everything,”“You need to stop,” Francesca sighed from behind Elena.Elena turned back in the makeup chair to stare at her friend. “Welcome,” she greeted sheepishly.“Please

    Chapter 86.Elena sat in the front seat of the car staring out the window with unseeing eyes. Somewhere around her, she registered Marco talking to the detective and answering questions about the location change and if they’d known about the bomb. She knew she should speak up.Maybe tell the detective how every inch of her hated Marcel but she had never wished him death. She hated him so much, even now in his death. Did that make her a bad person?“I don’t understand it,’’ Elena heard Francesca say to Marco in a low voice. “If he planted the bomb then how’d he die? What? He just forgot he was carrying a bomb and decided to chill in the warehouse till it exploded?”“No, nothing like that. It was a time issue. They can’t be certain but from initial analysis, the bomb timer malfunctioned and went off earlier than programmed.Elara felt a hand on her shoulder and jerked. “Miss, it’s only me,” Kim, her secretary sighed sadly. “You need to let Walter drive you back home. You need to rest

    “Do you have it?” Marco asked the detective. They all sat in the living room of Elena’s old house where they had just filmed the last scene for her documentary. The whole process took three weeks. Three weeks of sleepless nights and paranoia for Elena.She played with the engagement ring on her fingers and watched the discussion between the detective and Marco. She had come clean to him. Telling him about the deal she made with David to get the evidence.How she had promised not to touch or harm Chelsea’s baby.“Yes,” The detective gave them a nod. “The permit got released today,”Elena sighed in relief and her eyes watered. Finally, they had gotten an arrest permit for Chelsea. All they had to do now was catch her and Elena could finally go on her trip in peace.Her bags were packed already. They had been, for a while now. “Finally,” Francesca smiled. ‘It felt like we were waiting forever. Now what we really need is a bounty. Let’s put some money on her head and declare her wanted,

Walter isn’t the bad guy here and you know it,” “She’ll be fine,” The nurse smiled at Marco as she dropped Elena’s hand gently. “We just have to dress the wound for a few more days. I’ll give her something to help with the pain. Hopefully, in a week, the pain will be completely gone,” Marco sighed and gave her a nod. “Thank you,” Elena and Marco watched silently as the nurse gave them a nod and walked out of the room. The minute they were alone, Elena turned to Marco. “How is she? What did the doctor say?” “Her legs were really damaged so they rushed her into the theatre the minute the ambulance got here,” He glanced at his watch. “She’s been in surgery for a few hours now.

Her eyes were wet and as she looked at her friend’s reflection in the mirror, she could see Francesca’s eyes were also wet.“You look so beautiful, gosh,” Fancesca choked out as she got to her feet slowly.“She’s right,” Theresa smiled. “Hurry up and get married before you steal my woman,”The three of them laughed and Elena put a piece of her hair behind her ear.“I feel beautiful too. I think this is it. The dress, I’ll wear. It’s perfect,”Francesca gave a nod of agreement. “I love it too, but do you think Rosa will agree? I imagine she would want you to wear a custom made dress,”Elena’s brows wrinkled and before she could reply, her doctor and friend, Theresa spoke up.“It doesn’t matter if Rosa Donatelli doesn’t like the dress. She’s not the one getting married and she has to accept that. If she can’t then she’s free

    Chelsea was mad. Or crazy. Elena couldn’t decide which one as she watched the woman’s shiny eyes.This wasn’t Chelsea Rodriguez, the intelligent arch enemy she’d had since childhood. This woman was something else, bordering on the edge of insanity.“What’s wrong with her?” Elena asked her secretary as she watched Chelsea respond to the judges’s few questions.“I’m not sure,” Kim sighed and shook her head. “At the first trial, I thought she was putting on an act but now, it’s obvious to anyone that she’s lost it. Maybe guilt from all her evil deeds or the pain of losing the child she longed for,”Elena’s fingers shook but she twisted them and kept them on her lap as the judge slammed the gavel to bring utter silence to the courtroom.“The accused has been found guilty…”The court went up in uproar as the spectators cheered loudly while Elena just sat in silence staring at Chelsea’s wheelchair.“Order!” The judge tried to get the court silent again as she hit the gavel.“...guilty of at

I mean the man came from a long line of men who were diamond industry owners but she didn’t realise he was this rich.She had seen a reasonable amount of wealth in the time she had spent on earth yet her mouth was open in shock as the car pulled up by the side of the fountain and a man pulled open her car door.“Marco,” She whispered in shock. The entire driveway and the estate screamed luxury.The manor itself was breathtaking. Like a mini palace, she didn’t know what to focus her eyes on first. “The manor is gorgeous,” She gushed as she stepped out of the car.Marco chuckled lightly behind her. “Yeah, it is. I’ve gotten so used to this place, I always forget how shocking it is, to see it for the first time,”“Used to it?” Elena asked in bewilderment. “Are you joking?” She took off her sunglasses and stared wide-eyed at the entire expanse of the building.Would she ever get used to it?

    Elena looked across the terrace where Marco and DaSilva were still deep in conversation. The two of them were secluded from the entire family and seemed to be talking about something serious.She tried to pretend like it didn’t bother her. She failed.“Maybe try being more subtle?” Vicker, Marco’s cousin teased her with an amused smile.Elena’s cheeks pinkened and she dropped the book she had been pretending to read. “Am I that obvious?” He chuckled and gave Elena a nod. “Pretty much. But it’s alright. You’re marrying him in four days. It would be strange if you weren’t worried,”“But should I be?” Elena frowned. “Do I have a reason to be worried? Who exactly is she?”“I’m sure grandfather already told you,” Vicker replied with a shrug. “She’s Marco’s childhood best friend. I’ve always known her, how exactly they met is fuzzy, but they were always inseparable, we all thought for sure they would be getting married but…” Vicker trailed off.“But what?” Elena asked, her interest now piq

The invitation was the most coveted thing as zero cameras were seen in the hall save for the officially approved videographers.The orchestra struck a cord, the double doors swung open and Elena Sanchez began her walk down the aisle.In her right hand she held a bouquet of flowers and her left down was intertwined with a man’s own.Shock rippled through the guests as they recognized the man as Chairman Donatelli.On the other side of the long aisle stood the groom of the day.Once Italy’s most suitable bachelor, Marco Dantelli stood with his eyes wet as his grandfather slowly escorted his bride towards him.Despite Rosa’s naggings about protocol and what was considered proper, Elena had written her own vows.The hall fell silent as her words resonated and she whispered them with tears in her throat.She would love him.

What do you think?” Rosa Donatelli asked her future daughter-in-law excitedly.“Umm….,” Elena trailed with a smile.“I know, I know,” Rosa sighed. “You want to wear your own dress. But it’s not made by any popular designer,” Rosa looked distressed as she patted down her bun and sighed. “What will I say when the other women ask who designed my daughter-in-law’s dress? An unnamed store from New York City?”Francesca and Elena locked eyes from the full-length mirror and they both burst into giggles.“Oh stop it!” Rosa hissed at them but the edge of her lip was lifted as well. A smile was brewing and she knew it.It wasn’t like Elena hated the dress. Far from it, Rosa’s dress indeed spoke of quiet luxury with its soft lace and intricate pearl design.It fit perfectly too. Pancakes aside, it was almost like the dress had been hand-sewn for her. She didn’t have any particular attachment to her own dress and she could have worn it.Just one issue.Elena

    Chapter 96Elena Sanchez slipped in and out of consciousness as she heard shouting in the room. At some point, a blow had been thrown, followed by a loud slap that seemed to shock her properly awake.No, she had not been slapped, the slap was for someone else. It was in fact the noise of the slap that woke her up from her drug-like state.She vaguely registered that the bodice of her dress was torn and she pulled together the scraps of the fabric hurriedly trying to cover herself.Some footsteps and the warmth of a coat covered her. She closed her eyes and took in a breath of gratitude.Cedarwood smoky spice. The coat smelled like… Marco. Yes, the man she was supposed to marry. Elena jerked awake fully and flung open her eyes.“Are you mad! What a miscreant! How dare you!”Rosa Donatelli was red faced and screaming angrily. Elena felt disorientated and confused. What had happened?She turned her head to Marco who stood beside her, rubbing her hair with his face twisted in concern.“A

    Chapter 95Elena made her way down to get breakfast but her head was spinning. Had Marco not come back last night from where he went with DaSilva? Why else would Vicker carry her instead of her supposed husband?“Dear, are you okay? You don’t look so well,” Queeneth, one of Marco’s cousins spoke up as she got to the dining table.Elena gave her a small smile and fanned herself with my palm. “I… I’m fine. I just need some air. Excuse me,” Before she could reply properly, Elena rushed out of the dining towards the drawing room window and pulled out her phone.Her hands shook as she dialed Marco’s number.Ring Ring.The phone rang and her stomach was in knots until he finally picked up the call.“Hello?”“Where are you?” Elena demanded immediately.In the background of the call, She could hear DaSilva’s voice and it grated on her nerves. “Did you come back last night?”“Sorry baby. I called Mama because you were asleep. I’ll be back in time for my bachelor’s party. Just…”Marco’s voice

    Chapter next.“Oh, I think that pose is cute,”Elena squeezed her eyes shut and internally groaned at the sound of DaSilva’s voice. Here she was, trying to process that her soon-to-be husband could potentially have a five-year-old child and the woman was yapping loudly.“You okay?” Marco asked Elena with concern in his voice.“Yeah yeah,” She waved his concern off with a small smile. “I’m fine. Let’s just take the pictures,”Marco gave a nod and Elena didn’t miss his look of relief. He was trying so hard for everything to go well and she couldn’t understand why. Was it because of DaSilva?“And that’s a wrap,” The photographer, Antonio smiled at them The pictures are done. Let’s pick the ones I’ll process.Elena sighed in relief and smiled happily. Finally, an activity she could do with Marco.“Let’s choose the picture,” Elena smiled excitedly.“What do you think you know about PR?” Rosa stepped in with a conceding look. This is the Donatelli family. I will not have you disgrace the fa
