Vanessa smiled when she saw that she was in pain, but this was the least of what her own sister was feeling being held hostage by her brother. Vanessa knew that she might have been talking this whole thing in the wrong approach, at first, her plan was exposing the bad crimes the Organization was involved in the underworld, but not at the expense of her own sisters life. She had no idea that Donovan will get to Valerie before Mr. B does that, the initial plan was to use Valerie to get Mr.B on a one on one altercation. So that she can kill him, but now, her sister was in more bigger danger than her. So, she did the only rightful thing anyone in her shoes will do too. Although, she knows that Ares wouldn’t be happy with her, watching from the sky what she was doing to his sister, but his brother is the reason for all this. It was an eye for an eye. “I..I don’t know what you are talking about, please let go of my hair.” Daisy please, at this rate she’s going to go bald before she dies
Her door was pushed open with force, which made Valerie sit up on her bed and grab the duvet up to her body, before she saw Donovan walk into her room. He looked different, the look on his face could kill so she didn't ask him what was happening before he yanked her up by her arm, hurting her where his hand held her. “Get up!” Donovan yelled, not in the mood to play with her, especially not after what her sister has done. It was all clear to him now, the fate they both had, they were meant to be enemies in this lifetime. Maybe in the next, her sister won’t have to kill Ares and he would treat her like the gentle man that she wishes her dream man to be. “You are hurting me.” Valerie cried, before he pushed her closer to him. Her breast was squeezed against her chest as his arms went around her waist holding her close to him, as she fought to pull away not liking their close proximity. She didn't know what the hell is going on but she’s not going to allow him to treat her in that mann
“We have got a lead on Vanessa Blackfield.” Paul said, walking into the office to find Scott arranging some files about the Castillo family. After he showed him the picture of the man that he was looking for, the one that had hurt his daughter. Scott has gone ahead to confirm from Jolene about Marco’s identity. Although, Jolene didn't directly confirm that Marco was the one that she was secretly seeing. It was obvious that she was scared of getting hurt by him , especially after invading Marco’s place which was where the both had been seeing each other. Scott was angry at his daughter, he knew that he couldn’t entirely blame her. He knew the type of Marco, manipulators who would do anything to get what they want. After that incident that night which had his daughter ask him to save Valerie, she has barely said anything either to him nor her mother. She’s been distant, and didn’t react to the good news that they were finally leaving town to the city. To Jolene, she might see that as
Angelo groaned in annoyance after he came down from the car, the moment he arrived back at the family house. He was busy on call with his son, who had let him know that he still doesn’t have Daisy yet, rather they were on their way to get her.At first, he had suspected that Maria was the one who kidnapped his daughter, which had him nearly call her to meet up. But after hearing Donovan’s side of the story, he had a change of mind. His anger that had been directed at Maria was pushed over to who deserved it, the girl that Donovan has up in his house.Moments before he had left the house, he was having a serious conversation with Donovan which had led to his wife, Nora, eavesdropping on their conversation to figure out about Valerie. He blamed himself for being so loud and not actually checking if anyone was in the room with him.Now, not only did he have his grandfather to be worried about who was lying in a hospital, taking all set of injections to recuperate. The doctor has said tha
This time around, Dovonan and his men were the first people to arrive at the warehouse, unlike the very first time they all met at the police station in the town. Vanessa smiled as she watched the cctv and saw Dovonan dispatch his men to their various position, yet there was no sight of either Valerie and Chad. A frown settled upon her face at the thought of Donovan thinking that this was a joke. She wouldn’t want to hurt Daisy, but she will if she have too. But she might have been too fast, because she watched another car pull up near the cctv, and saw Donovan walk over to open the door before pulling Valerie out, who was looking scared. Vanessa touched the screen at the sight of her twin sister, if it was possible that Valerie could sense her touching her through the screen infront if her she will be happy. It’s been how many months? A month and two weeks since she has last seen her and Chad. She had no idea how they had lived, but she’s glad that she hanged on all these while, b
Fear.It was a strong word for what Valerie was feeling at the moment while she watched the fight that was going on, if anyone had told her that there will ever come a day where she will battle for her life, or experience what she was seeing right now, she would have called that person a big liar and a fake seer.But the young lady refused to believe how chaotic her life had become, watching her sister and Dovonan join hands together, to fight off the new enemy that she had no idea how he’s connected to her or Vanessa, had her frustrated.The young lady has never felt so useless in life, where others are out there fighting to stay alive. She was hiding and crying like she was a baby, but no one seemed to understand the deep fear that Valerie had for violence.Donovan didn't understand, and neither did Vanessa understand that too. All they cared about was their selfish interest, without thinking about what any of their actions could cause their loved ones.She could still remember the
“Can i atleast see Grandpa before i leave?” Daisy asked her brother, while using her hand to wipe the tears that fell from her eyes, at the news that her grandfather was in the hospital as a result of hearing that she got kidnapped. “Stop being a kid, Daisy. You have already spent enough time with him. The least he wants is to wake up to still find you here in New York. So, you are leaving and that’s final.” Donovan chided at Daisy’s stubbornness. He had already done his part as a brother, and saved her from being killed in the crossfire between him and Vanessa. The least he needs right now is to still give Vanessa a opportunity to get him into this kind of situation again. Which won’t be possible as long as he lives, rather, it’s the other way around. This time, Vanessa would come pleading for her sister's life but she won’t get that so easily from him. You can’t enter the lion's den and expect to come out without any injuries. Vanessa doesn’t know who she was messing with. As if k
“He’s losing a lot of blood. Get the ER room ready!” The nurse said, wheeling in an injured Detective Scott on a stretcher along with the other horse who held up the iv that was connected to his hand, the other nurses trying to keep a crying Jolene and her mother away from following them into the operating room.“Dad.” Jolene cried, rushing alongside the doctor, while holding onto the stretcher and her fathers hand, that was stained with blood. It was still warm, so she knew that nothing bad was happening aside from the part that he needs urgent surgery, after being shot in a raid that happened tonight.“Ma, we have to part ways right now.” A nurse stopped Jolene from entering inside the operating room. She felt bad looking at the poor young girl, but all she could do was to pray for her father. The injury looked brutal and he had lost a lot of blood.Turning to leave, Jolene held the nurse’s hand. “Please, save my daddy. I will do anything you want, but i can’t lose him. So, save my
The door to the warehouse was opened and Marco was forced to raise his head up, as a result of the tiredness that came as a result of being beaten to a pulp. The room was a little bit dark, yet he still need to know who exactly had decided to come see him after leaving him thirsty, to the point that he will do anything just to have a cup of water.Yet, he tried to be strong, because he knew that Donovan was coming for him.Although he knew that by now Donovan would have been able to track his location, he didn’t raise his hope high that he would be willing to give up Valerie. The man was totally in love with her, and he understood the pain that will come if he does what Vanessa wants.Since he was locked up after taken a good beating by Vanessa’s men, who had done everything possible for him to give out the location of where exactly Donovan was keeping Valerie.All he could think of was Jolene.He had no idea if he will be walking out of this alive, but if he wasn’t, all he wished for
Valerie woke up as a result of the continuous shuffling and voices that she heard, voices that seemed familiar until she finally opened her eyes to see that the room she was in was messed up.Also, Donovan was yelling at someone on the phone and that was what has made her sit up from the bed, she hasn’t seen him act this way before, she has never seen him so angry or has she?Valerie couldn’t remember, but she knew that this wasn’t the first time that she had seen him this way, but it’s just her memory that was failing her. She has been forgetting a lot of things lately, and she was bothered about itThere was nothing pleasant about her past to remember, although she had no idea what her past was like, and the fact that she couldn’t do anything like telling Donovan about it, without him being angry about it, made her not bring it up.The fear she has for him was the beginning of wisdom for her to know that as long as she was on his good side, that he will treat her like a queen. All s
Maria looked down at her wrist watch to see that she’s been here for a good thirty minutes, yet she wasn’t giving up. It was so obvious that after her last meetup with Donovan, he was serious about the both of them not seeing each other any longer.Yet, from the urgency in her tone while she typed that message to him, it was only wise for him to know that she has something important to tell him about, but from the look of things it seems that he would rather watch Pandora kill his best friend, rather than to give her a listening ear.She rubbed her hands nervously to the point that it became so sweaty, and she didn't even want to talk about the part where her heart was beating irregularly as a result of her feeling anxious, about what the outcome of this meeting would turn to once she tells him everything starting from the beginning.“Ma’am.”Maria backed out of her thoughts to look at Cassy, who was standing in front of her holding her blazer. It was freezing cold out here, and for t
“So, you are trying to tell me that Alberto has been working for Maria all these while?” Mr. Salvatore asked for the second time, while his secretary replied back as best as he can as if the evidence wasn’t there right in front of him, with tbe photos containing pictures of Alberto and Maria.There were some pictures of them too on a business trip, as well as them going out on a date at a fancy restaurant. Truly, the pictures didn’t do any justice to try to prove that it was photoshopped.Al lot of misfortunes has befallen his business and family’s unity which was why Salvatore Castillo, had asked his secretary to keep an eye on every single person in the family, and out of all of them, Alberto was the scapegoat that has been working along with that woman, all these time!It was obvious that his son didn't have any idea of what’s going on, or did he? No! Salvatore knew that Angelo can be anything else but not stupid.He won’t protect his best friend at the cost of his own family. So,
“Miss.Jolene Harris?” The nurse called from the door, which broke Jolene out of her thoughts, to look at her mother who haven’t spoken to her, after letting her know about her past entanglement with Marco.She hasn’t made her father knkw anything about it, but the young lady didjt know how long her mother will be willing to keep her secret, if it’s positive that she’s pregnant.The choice of abortion is not an option, but wjtg the way her mother was ti g so far scaged her, she doesn’t want to abort the child, what sort of mother will she be to kill her own child despite the father being a dead rat.Her mother was angry and disappointed, of there was a y sophisticated way of explaining the look on her mothers face, after she find her of Marco, she couldn’t explain.Jolene felt bad.She regrets everything.Meeting Marco?Allowing him to get into her head?Him using her only ti dump her afterwards after getting what he wanted?It’s all her fault!Yet, she couldn’t hear the thoughts of he
Maria was inside her office signing important documents that needed her attention, before her door was slammed open and in walked an angry Alberto with her secretary, Cassy, rushing behind him.“Ma, I tried to stop him.” Cassy said, going to touch Alberto but Maria raised her up which stopped her from doing what she was about to do.The look on Alberto’s face said it all? He was clearly not in a good mood, but that doesn’t mean that he’s supposed to do anything he likes because they were business partners.He ought to show his respect as long as he’s here in her office, but of course that was something people like him, mafia men didn’t understand.“It’s okay, Cassy. Send in some refreshments.” Maria said, as Cassy looked at Alberto one more time.The look in her eyes said that she didn't trust him not to harm her madam, which Maria understands that she will be waiting outside with the security. They will all be on standby in case Alberto does anything silly.But Maria wasn’t scared of
“What the fuck do you mean that he’s gone missing?!!” Donovan yelled over the phone, that it made a sleeping Valerie jump up in her sleep from how loud he was on the phone.When he saw her do that, he had to leave the room entirely since he didn't want her to hear about this conversation.Apparently, he has woken up to the call to hear that Marco was missing, after he has sent Rio to check up on him going after the reporter that he ordered him to bring to him.Upon hearing the words of one of his men who toned him all he needed to know at Marco’s disappearance. Annoyance wrapped around Donovan’s body, while he was already thinking hard of what and who could pull such nonsense and..“Boss.” Rio’s voice interrupted his thought as well as the phone call, he looked at him then at the figure that was standing at Rio's back that wasn’t looking good.Donovan cut the call before Rio came closer with Chase limping behind him, while getting scared at what the Boss’ reaction would be at him rela
Mature Content!Domestic violence!The breakfast started off fine, with Grandfather acting like he wasn’t the same person that had given him an ultimatum to choose between his mom and the love of his life. Angelo has given Donovan a signal from the very first time he has arrived with Anastasia, not to try to piss off the old man, since he was just looking for a reason to either kill his mom and Valerie .So, he tried his best to act as normal as possible, with his grandfather acting like the good father in law he was, by pushing the best past of the meal to Anastasia’s way.Donovan knows what he’s trying to do, but the old man has no idea that he had full control over his wife. He would be so disappointed to hear what Anastasia has to say, if he goes ahead to talk about Valerie.“So, have you made your decision yet?” Salvatore asked, looking at Donovan who looked at his father for an answer, but he himself didn't know what to say, since he wasn’t expecting his father to talk about th
Anastasia tried zipping up her gown, but she couldn’t reach towards the zipper. She has received word from one the guard that her presence was needed at her husband’s family house, for breakfast. With the talk of everyone being present there, she had made up her mind to as well use the opportunity to talk to her father in law, about how Donovan has been treating her all these while.A month and three days!That’s how long she has stayed here, locked up inside her room all day without any sight of her husband. After he had abandoned her on their wedding night for the girl he claims he’s in love with. He did much worse by taking away her phone, or any devices around the house she found use to reach out to anyone outside.To shut her up for good, but this opportunity was staring right at her face. She had her mind made up to expose Donovan’s ill treatment towards her.What sort of husband abandons his wife for months, on their wedding night, without checking up on her or their son, he h
