CHAPTER 60Klaus's eyes were wide open in shock. Marino's gang! What the fuck!! He stood suddenly, fueled with sudden hate and anger. How dare they? That wasn't the agreement for fucks sake. They had once agreed to collaborate and get Angelo for what his girl did to their Boss, who had been in a coma ever since the fateful day. But not like this! His men, on hearing the words all bursted out through the doors, aiming straight to the garage. "Go after them right now and get her here. Bring her to me! Fuck!!!"His fists hit a nearby wall, but it did nothing to quench the fire rising in him.Eva, on the other hand, was rooted to the spot, utterly speechless and dumbfounded. This was not what she had planned, or how she had envisioned this to play out at all.Her fingers clenched in her fists, as she seethed inwardly. Why Were her plans failing her this way? As much as she would absolutely love for Elena to be taken by those who seemed revenge on her, she, Eva, needed to get the h
Chapter 61The sun was gradually setting as Dominic and Angelo drove through the city.While they drove, tension filled the air, when Dominic suddenly heard his cell phone beep.At the same time, Angelo's phone pinged, and he quickly reached out to it.It was a text message. As Dominic stared at his screen, his eyes widened and a furious glint appeared in them."The fuck!?" Angelo suddenly yelled out as he smashed his phone at the front of the car."How the hell did Mario's gang get to her already!?" He asked, his gaze on Dominic, as he ran a hand over his hair."Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!!" "What do we do now, Boss?" He asked, "It seems we are in a bind at the moment. Eva is most likely still with Klaus. While Elena would be in their Casino."Angelo breathed in deeply, as the weight of the situation kept dwelling on him.They still haven't gotten a location for Klaus yet, and heading to Mario's Casino was like a suicide mission.He would need a ton of his able-bodied guards, and that wasn't
CHAPTER 62“What the fuck do you mean by that?”Theodore asked as he rearranged himself uncomfortably on the seat.“Bring her already to me!” He barked at them and they hurriedly picked her up and brought her closer to him.He picked up her hand and it dropped back heavily, dangling through the air.“What did you do to her?" His eyes were blazing as he glared at them.“We did not…we…” They were stammering now making him more angry.How could they do this when he had plans to make her pay for what she had done?“She hasn't even begun to pay for what she did to our boss and you think death is the best option? Do you guys think at all? What the hell is this?”Theodore was angry now.He stood up from his seat and his men stepped away from him for fear of being hit.“We are sorry boss." “Of what use is your sorry when you have taken away the life that…”The door opened in between his banter and he paused and turned with blazing grey eyes to the door." What do you want?" If the guard wa
CHAPTER 63“Do as he says." Theo ordered his men and Dom sighed in relief knowing he had achieved something at least but to his dismay, Theo had seen his expression and became more concerned about his sincerity.His fingers drummed rhythmically on the table, as his eyes scanned those of Doms.“Wait!" He suddenly sky ordered his men, his eyes watching Dom closely." I need to see the drive first.” He said in finality and leaned into his seat making Dom to curse as he tried to free himself from the men that held him captive." Okay!” He finally succumbed.Dom brought the flas drive out and held it with two fingers." Are we good now?” Theo had his eyes flicking back and forth between Dom and the drive that he held tightly. Time was slipping away, and Theo’s mind was racing.Could that really be it?“So that’s it?” Theo leaned back, raising an eyebrow. “You’re handing over the drive? Just like that?”Dom’s gaze didn’t waver. “This drive has already caused enough trouble. Mario lost it,
CHAPTER 64Eva crouched by the couch, her breathing heavy and uneven with anger as she watched Klaus zip up his belt with a practiced, careless motion.Every movement he made felt like a slap to her face, a reminder of what she’d allowed to happen, of the power he still held over her. Her stomach churned, the bitter taste of shame rising up as she thought about what she’d done. She felt trapped, humiliated, and furious, all at once.“Let me go,” she demanded, her voice firm but laced with a restrained anger she struggled to hold back. “I have something to take care of.”Klaus barely looked at her, his attention focused on straightening his shirt and smoothing out a wrinkle on his sleeve. It was as though her words didn’t reach him at all.He was dismissive, detached, as if what had happened between them was merely routine, meaningless. She could hardly breathe, disgusted by his indifference which added to her shame.When he finally met her gaze, there was a flicker of something she co
Angelo sat in the passenger seat of the car and heard his phone ring. It sounded as vicious as the caller and he gave it an angry look before picking up his phone.Who was calling him in such a tense moment when he was still trying to put his head together on all the things that had gone wrong?“Where is my daughter?" That was the first question that resounded in Angelo's ears when he picked up the call.He had not looked at the call screen before picking it up and now he knew he had made a huge mistake.“Angelo! I'm talking to you. Where is my daughter?" Don Massimo's voice drained out every thought he had and he became blank.This was the one person he did not want to speak with. Not now! Not when he was still not sure where his daughter was. And now he had no answer to his question.News indeed traveled fast as he had not informed Don Massimo of his missing daughter yet and he had not expected the news to get to him.But unfortunately, here he was stammering and looking for an an
This was the last person Angelo was expecting to see today. He had just finished speaking to Don Massimo over the phone a few minutes ago and now here they were face to face.Don Massimo knew everything about him including his car and entourage and there was no way he could've escaped in that moment. How had Don Massimo gotten to the hospital in Peru in such a short period, and he had lied that he was headed to save Eva meanwhile here he was to see Elena instead.The way Don Massimo's eyebrows shot up at the sight of his car made him know he was in trouble. He stepped down from the car very quickly and walked up to Don Massimo who was waiting patiently for his explanation."Where did you say my daughter is again?" Don Massimo asked and Angelo felt that he had heard these questions more number of times in one day than he ever thought he would.He was about to open his mouth and give a response when Don raised his hands shutting him up again.When he spoke again, his tone was different
With no say in what was happening as Don Massimo had already made up his mind to go with Elena, Angelo stood with a broken heart and watched from a distance as Elena was helped into the car and was taken away."The faster we get her home, the faster her treatment will commence." Don Massimo said with a wink. " Take care, son. Go find your sister. I'll be waiting at home for you." Don Massimo said to a destabilized Angelo before turning to some of his men."I'll leave these few men with you. Work with them and in less than 24 hours, I want her home. Do you understand me, Angelo?" "Yes, I do." Angelo finally responded with a depressed sigh before Don Massimo walked away.He didn't have to be so downcast. If he came back home with his sister, Eva, then Don Massimo would release Elena back to him. M he needed to do was to find Eva and all would be well."What are you waiting for? Get in let's go bring back Eva." He screamed at the guards as they all entered the nearest car they could fin
Chapter 98 (Epilogue)The warehouse buzzed with activity as Angelo inspected the latest shipment of goods. His sharp eyes scanned the inventory, ensuring everything was accounted for.Though his business dealings required constant attention, his thoughts often wandered to Elena, who was now eight months pregnant. He had spent the past weeks ensuring everything was perfect for her and their baby.As he signed off on the documents handed to him by one of his men, his phone rang. It was his trusted right-hand man, Marco.“Boss,” Marco’s voice was urgent. “It’s Elena. She’s gone into labor. They’ve taken her to the hospital.”Angelo froze for a moment, his pen slipping from his fingers. His heart pounded in his chest. “I’m on my way,” he said quickly, already moving toward his car.The drive to the hospital felt like the longest journey of his life. Every red light and slow driver grated on his nerves. Angelo’s thoughts raced. He worried about Elena, about the baby, and whether he’d mak
Chapter 97The sun had just begun to rise, casting a warm, golden glow across the private villa. The soft sound of waves crashing against the shore could be heard from the open windows, filling the room with a serene melody.Elena stirred, her eyes fluttering open to find herself wrapped in Angelo’s arms. His grip was firm but gentle, his breathing steady against her neck.She turned slightly, watching him sleep. The sharp edges of his face softened in rest, and for the first time in a while, he looked entirely at peace. A faint smile tugged at her lips.“Watching me again, Mrs. Fabian?” Angelo’s voice was husky with sleep, and his eyes remained closed as he spoke.Elena chuckled softly. “I can’t help it. You’re too handsome when you’re not scowling at someone.”He opened one eye, his lips quirking into a smirk. “If I’d known marriage would make you so cheeky, I might have married you sooner.”She laughed, her cheeks warming. “Good morning, Mr. Fabian.”“Good morning,” he murmured, p
Chapter 96Dominic woke up to the soft hum of machines and the sterile scent of antiseptics filling his room. His condition was wore than any other person and so he had a lot of antiseptics being inserted into him.His body felt heavy, but his mind was alert. As he blinked into the harsh room light, he noticed a familiar figure sitting in the corner.Angelo!"You're finally awake," Angelo said, his tone even, though his sharp eyes betrayed his tension.Dominic attempted to sit up, wincing at the dull ache in his ribs. "How long was I out?" he croaked."Long enough," Angelo replied. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. "You’ve caused a lot of trouble, Dominic."Dominic looked down, guilt weighing on him. He had known the risks of his decisions, but he hadn’t anticipated how far the fallout would spread. "I didn’t mean for things to go this way," he said.Angelo shook his head. "Intentions don’t erase actions." He stood up, towering over Dominic’s bed. "You need to leave
Chapter 95Angelo had also brought Eva back home. He carried her to one of the spare rooms and laid her gently on the bed.He didn’t know why he still bothered about her, maybe it was the remnants of the past they shared, or perhaps it was the exhaustion from the endless betrayals that seemed to have happened around him in just a short span of time.Whatever it was, he couldn’t bring himself to leave her at Klaus's domain, they would roast her alive and he did not want that for her.When he returned from his session with Klaus, he had decided to check on her. The house was quiet, the weight of the day pressing down on him as he climbed the stairs. He opened the door to her room and found her still asleep, her face soft and relaxed, like she didn’t have a care in the world. For a moment, he stood there, watching her. She looked so innocent in her sleep, and yet the chaos she had caused flashed in his mind.He pulled the nearest seat close to himself and sat beside the bed watching her
Chapter 94Angelo had finally succeeded in bringing both Elena and Dominic back home after the stressful ordeal with Klaus.He made sure they were both receiving treatment—Dominic for his injuries and Elena for her injuries as well as the trauma she had faced, but refused to take any treatment himself. He had too much work to do in the next two hours to rest. His mind was running on a dangerous mission, focusing on one thing only: Klaus.For the mean time, he settled for a quick first-aid treatment. His wounds were fresh, but he knew that if he didn’t take care of them, they would get infected. Angelo couldn't afford that right now. His body ached, but his mind was sharp and focused on the task at hand.Once he finished bandaging his wounds, Angelo grabbed his jacket, grabbed a cigarette from his pocket, and left the safe confines of his home. He drove in silence, the cool wind from the night blowing in through the window of his car. He had to make sure Klaus was still alive and then
Chapter 93Angelo was so disappointed in his men. His heart sank as he stared at the chaos his men had allowed to happen in his absence.He had left to save Dominic, only to return and find Klaus and Eva tearing everything apart.Before he could make sense of the situation, Klaus ambushed him, holding Elena hostage to force his surrender. She stood there, her face pale, her arms pinned behind her by one of Klaus's men. Angelo’s blood boiled at the sight, but he knew he couldn’t risk Elena’s life.“Angelo,” Klaus had said with a wicked grin, “be smart for once. Surrender, or you’ll watch her suffer.”Angelo had no choice as he raised his hands in defeat, he allowed Klaus’s men to drag him forward. The sharp blow to the back of his neck came faster than he could react.The world went black.*****Angelo’s mind wandered as he stirred back into consciousness. The last thing he remembered was Klaus’s men dragging him away, the sting of a blow to the back of his neck knocking him out cold.
Chapter 92Dominic, on the other hand, was planning how he would save both Elena and Angelo. He knew there was no time to waste, and so he brought all the men together, his men and Angelo's men and they began to plan how they will rescue them."I called us out here because we were in trouble. A rat has entered into our cabinet unnoticed and has begun eating into us. We have been blind not to notice it but we will not remain blind." He addressed them." Do we know where our boss is?" He asked and everywhere was silent." He is being held captive by Theo. A baby Mafia. Someone who acem into this business just a few years ago. And we allow him to walk over us with those baby feet of his?" He charged and all the men gasped in disbelief." Why did we let him go alone? Why didn't we follow boss? This is an insult!" One of the men said. " He gave strict orders that no one should follow him and did not leave any information on where he was headed." Another defended and they all murmured ohh
Chapter 91When Angelo got to Theo's territory in his car, he sat the guns on the window of the car with one hand and began shooting at any alive thing he saw while his other hand drove the car in a around the province.Theo's men were seen running for their lives as most were wounded and about thirty of them dead with just one gun. Theo knew what Angelo was capable of especially since it had to do with his fiancee and so he sent more men out after Dominic left and his precautions weren't taking for granted as he ended up killing thirty of them while the rest escaped heavily wounded.After the massive killing, Angelo came out of his car and stood infront of the massacre of dead bodies he had made in three minutes. He hung his roll of bullets around his body and held his two guns intact in both hands as he approached the gate.There was no one to stop him as he had killed almost all of them. He stepped into the gate and stood still looking at the huge story building and waiting for the
Chapter 90Klaus paced around the room angrily as he tried to process the information he had just heard.In the next minute, he picked up the drinking glass that Eva was using to drink wine and flung it across the room in anger while Eva jerked from the sudden collision of the glass with the wall.She just sat there on the couch, her head down as she cowered away from this angry version of him as she pulled on the roots of her hair in frustration.Why he was angry was what she did not understand. Elena was the enemy after all."I still don't understand why you are angry. I just..." She stopped talking when Klaus turned his blazing eyes in her direction."You don't understand? I thought we were working together, Eva? Why, then, will you take such a rash step and make such a decision without informing me first?" He queried with eyes blazed in anger." Why will you put a bomb in the car and kill her? She had use, great use, and potential in bringing out plans to success." Klaus told her
