Leo was still in the same room with Kiara. He was staring at her face and wondering why the hell she had to hurt herself because of his brother.He took her hand and rubbed it, and just a few seconds later, he felt her grip on his hand as well."Kiara." Leo called softly, leaning close to her. He watched her slowly open her eyes, but became disappointed when she called Nathan's name first."Levi." Kiara called weakly, but when she opened her eyes, she found out it was Leo sitting next to her, and immediately became disappointed."Are you okay?"Kiara ignored his question and tried to sit upright on the bed. She groaned in pain as her lower abdomen was hurting so bad."I'll help you up.""Don't you fucking touch me, Leo. If you lay even a finger on me, I swear I'm gonna kill you."Leo took a step away from her because her words were not just words. Kiara could do such if she wanted to."Where's Levi?" Kiara questioned, sitting upright on the bed and looking around the hospital."He's g
"Get the fucking car ready, Sebastian." Nathan said. He rushed up the stairs immediately and began heading towards his room. He just had to take something, and once he found it, he rushed out of the room and headed out of the house.Sebastian was in the car waiting for him.The look on Sebastian's face wasn't so good.Honestly, he was scared for Nathan. He would never let anything happen to Nathan, not under his own watch. He was just scared Nathan's dad might do something bad to hurt him because of his stubbornness.The entire family would never accept Leo because Nathan grew up here and he was stronger as well. Nathan was everything the Mercidi family needed to prosper. His uncles were the worst and they were damn cunning and evil.Immediately Nathan got into the car, Sebastian ignited the engine and drove off.When they got to the airport, Sebastian was the first to notice some strange people standing in different directions. At first, he didn't put it to mind, but when the strange
Alejandro had walked out of the room already and he was heading towards his car. As soon as he got in, he took out his phone from his pocket and immediately dialed Leo's number.Leo wasn't answering the damn call and it was really getting him pissed off."Fuck!" Alejandro cursed.He would never get involved if the real plan was to kill Talia and he needed to know if it was Leo that did the attacking on Talia. He called again, but there was still no answer and when he called for the third time, the phone was switched offThis made him realize that Leo wasn't picking up his calls intentionally or maybe he was in an important meeting and could not answer any calls.He threw the phone at the other seat and rested his head on the steering wheels.A few minutes later, he was back up.Alejandro couldn't leave right now because he had to sign the business deal with Taylor just like Leo had instructed. His plan was to sign it and leave immediately. He ignited his engine and drove out of the sc
"Long time, Bryan" Bryan heard as Sam walked right in. Sam was his college friend and after they parted ways years ago, he called him a few months back for help.Their last conversation happened before Taylor came back to New York and so it was perfect for Bryan to hide the truth from Taylor.The only three people that knew about it were Alex, Bryan and Talia.The two men shook hands, and Bryan immediately offered him a seat. "I thought you had dropped it. You never picked up my calls and I was going insane."Same scoffed aloud. "I never dropped it, instead, I couldn't communicate with anyone especially when I was getting a lead."His words made Bryan arch his brows in surprise. "Lead? How? What do you think happened? Who do you think killed him?""Geez, slow down buddy, this isn't something I can tell you right here. I think we might need someone private to discuss this issue properly.""What's wrong?" Bryan questioned.Sam brought out some things from his bag and dropped it on Bryan'
Kiara was seated on a couch. When she heard Leo's footsteps, she cocked her head towards the direction of the stairs to see him coming down to the living room. He had a smile on his face and she wondered why."What a pleasant surprise to see you here in my humble abode," Leo said, spreading his arms apart like he wanted to hug her, but then Kiara rolled her eyes at him."That's no way to treat a friend who helped you earlier, Kiara," Leo said."You should stop thinking so highly of yourself, Leo. If you think I came to thank you, then I guess you should think again."Leo took his seat and collected the pack of cigarettes that was on the table.He took one out and lit it up immediately. He huffed and puffed out smokes staring at Kiara with a naughty smirk on his face.He watched her heave deeply, "Leo, I need your help." Hearing her say this, Leo chuckled. He didn't think that Kiara could be one to need his help. Everybody saw him as someone weak and worth nothing, and here she was say
When it was 30 minutes past 4, Bryan began getting ready to leave the office. His mind had been occupied with Taylor all along, and he had been asking himself the entire time if he was doing the right thing by keeping everything a secret from Taylor.There was a knock on the door."Come in." He said knowing full well that it was his secretary whom he had called for earlier."Sir, I canceled all the other meetings like you requested.""Great!" Bryan said and began to walk towards his shelf. He brought out some of the files he wanted to be cleared out as soon as possible and handed them over to his secretary."Get this done."She collected them and nodded her head, then turned around and began to walk away. After she was gone, Bryan collected the stuff Sam had earlier brought to him and what Sasha had given to him and walked out of his office.Once he got into his car, he wasted no time in igniting the engine and driving out of the company's premises. A few minutes later, Bryan halted h
Leo was still in bed with Kiara. His arms were wrapped around her body. Her eyes weren't opened yet, but he wanted to enjoy the moment of being with her till she finally woke up.Unfortunately, there was a knock on the door.He slowly replaced his arm with a pillow and tied a towel around his waist. He walked towards the door and opened it only to see Micheal standing at the entrance."What's wrong?""Your dad, he demands your presence tonight," Micheal said."Why?""I have no idea.""Fuck." Leo cussed. He knew he had to be there early in order not to displease his dad. The one thing Mr. Mercidi hated was a late arrival to an important meeting."Once Kiara wakes up, tell her I left first," Leo instructed and once Micheal nodded his head, he stepped out of the room and began to head towards his own to freshen up and get ready to go see his dad.About 10 minutes later, Leo was ready. He tucked his gun that was on the bed into his back pocket and began to walk out of the room.At the ent
"Where the hell are we going?" Taylor questioned since Nathan was the one driving. "Your house.""Are you crazy!! Stop this fucking car!!" Taylor yelled immediately, but Nathan scoffed."Does this sound so funny to you?""You haven't changed Taylor, not even a bit," Nathan said."Stop it you two!!" Talia had to yell. She had been keeping quiet the entire time but she could no longer take it anymore. It was time to clear the misunderstanding."Taylor," Talia called and took a deep breath in."For starters, everything you heard about Nathan here is fucking lies. He never killed anyone innocent, especially his late girlfriend. And most importantly, he had a fucking good reason for hiding his identity from you when you both first met.""What are you saying, Talia?" Taylor questioned."All I'm saying is, Nathan isn't the bad person here. He is simply trying to fix the mistake he made or the mistakes that would happen because of him.""How do you know all of this?""Because I met him after

"I wanna show you something, Taylor," Talia said as they broke the hug and wiped their tears,"What?""Come inside, baby." Talia half yelled, and from the entrance, Nathan stepped into the room holding a precious little baby in his arms. It seemed he couldn't stop her from crying softly."Oh, oh my goodness. Nathan?" Talia called. She waited and when he was standing next to them, Talia took the baby from his hand."Hey Taylor… it's been a while." Nathan uttered, but instead, Taylor embraced him so tight. "Yeah, it has. I can't believe I'm seeing you right now."A year back, Alexander had told her the truth. It wasn't Nathan who hurt her family, but his father and he was dead. After everything Mercidi did to her father, Taylor couldn't bring herself to hate Nathan because he had no idea about what his father did after all."You have a baby?""She's ours," Talia responded, and Taylor smiled."Can I?" "Do you even have to ask? Here, take her. She's always wanted to meet her aunt." Gent
ONE YEAR LATER."Kylie baby, come on, you're going to be late okay?" Taylor yelled as her daughter was taking so long to come down.Kyle and Kristen were standing close to her. "Mom, we're going to be late for our birthday party," Kristen said "Just give your sister 5 more minutes okay? She'll be down." Taylor said."Mommy." Kylie yelled as she rushed down the stairs with the nanny behind her. As soon as she got to where Taylor was, she hugged her so tight."You look gorgeous my darling," Taylor said and hugged Kylie. Her daughter was in a lovely pink dress and a crown on her forehead which made her look just a princess. "Now come on, we're going to be late okay." Kylie nodded her head. Just as she turned around, she halted and turned back again,"I love you so much, Daddy," Kylie uttered, blowing a little kiss towards the portrait of Bryan on the wall. Taylor turned around to stare at her daughter and smiled widely."Come on baby." She said again, and Kylie took her hand once again
Noticing that there was no other way to escape, Leo ran into a building before his enemies could get to him. It was an old building and the only building around the area, and thankfully, there weren't many people in it.Noticing that there were only a few of his men left, Asher was determined to kill Leo no matter what. As soon as he came towards the building, he smiled and tucked his gun into his pocket,"Gotcha." He uttered and began to step in.Meanwhile, Sebastian, Nathan, and Thiago got to the building five minutes later. "Damn it, how are we going to go in there?" Sebastian questioned,"We'll just go in," Nathan responded and cocked his head towards Thiago who nodded."What do you mean? There are people everywhere and we might hurt them.""Not just ordinary people, Sebastian. Thiago and I planned everything so that building is mine, and those people are ours. They work for us.Sebastian chuckled, "Why do I even bother underestimating the things you can do, Levi? You're damn smar
Sebastian couldn't stall anymore because if he did, then Rose's life would be in danger just like Leo had threatened. His greatest fear was losing the woman he was meant to protect.Although he had been able to protect Sharon, Rose was more important and he couldn't let anyone hurt her."I need to see the boss." Sebastian was standing at the entrance of the two big doors leading inside the mansion. When he uttered this, the door was opened by two bodyguards and he was allowed to step in.As he got in, the first person his gaze found was Micheal standing behind Leo. Sebastian waited for about 10 minutes before Leo called his attention as he had been discussing with a few friends,"Please sit. We shouldn't treat our guests with disrespect." Leo uttered and smiled knowing that today was the last day. It was either Sebastian had news about the warehouse or he had agreed for Rose to be killed."So, where is it?" Leo questioned.Sebastian took his gaze away from Micheal's and averted it to
As soon as Sasha heard the voice behind her, she turned around immediately pointing her gun towards the three officers who were in front of her with their guns pointed towards her."Ms. Sasha Davis, you're under arrest for murder, illegal sales of drugs, and robbery." Sasha chuckled aloud. Of course, everything was making her damn insane. They found out everything she was hiding. The man whom she had hired had his gun pointed right in front of the officers while Sasha carefully turned sideways,"Move." She yelled at Bryan, but he didn't move away from Taylor."Move or I blow one of their brains," Sasha yelled again staring at the kids, and this time, it was Taylor who moved away from Bryan."Good girl. Come closer."Taylor rose to her feet and walked towards Sasha like she had instructed, "Please, just don't hurt my kids, please.""You can't shoot, you're gonna hurt any of them if you do," Alexander uttered to one of the officers standing beside him as he stared at Bryan."If any of
NEXT NIGHT:Natalia had decided not to step out of her room since she knew Nathan was preparing to leave. If she stepped out, then she would certainly tag along with him so it was best to stay back without saying goodbye or good luck. It was so fucking hard to think that he would be out there alone and she wouldn't be by his day.She had always dreamt that if this day would arrive, she would be beside him and fight, but too bad an unexpected baby had changed everything. Although Talia couldn't deny that she was angry, she couldn't blame the child growing inside of her. If more than anything, she ought to be happy and pray for Nathan's safe returnA knock was rasped on the door,"Come in," Talia uttered, averting her gaze to the door. When the door opened, she heaved in disappointment. "So sorry if I wasn't who you were desperately expecting, sweetheart," Maya said as she walked in and Talia immediately changed her countenance."I'm sorry.""It's fine, darling. How are you feeling? I w
"Everything's ready, and we're leaving tonight. I still fucking hope Sebastian's alright cause if he isn't, then I'm never going to forgive myself." Nathan said and took the last content in the glass"He's gonna be fine, Levi, trust me. I would have gotten words if something happened to Sebastian, alright? Now, we've got to think about you first. You need to successfully make your way to the warehouse before anything else.""Yeah, I know, before Leo gets even the slightest hint of what's happening," Nathan responded. He had never been so nervous all his life, but tomorrow night was going to be the hardest fight Nathan ever had since he knew how to handle a gun and pull the trigger. Tomorrow night, he was going to face his brother, and an enemy of his family for so many years. "I need you to do something important for me, Thiago. I need Natalia to be in safe arms, and if I don't make it alive, I want her to be happy. Damn, she's got to live her life, find a good man, and take good car
The very moment Taylor got to her destination, she halted her car and without a warning began to run towards the graveyard. Thinking about her kids in danger was even more scary than she had ever imagined and so when she stepped in, she was knocked out by a man who had gotten to her unexpectedly.A few hours later, Taylor woke up to see her kids all asleep beside her."Kylie, Kyle, Kristen!" She called their names, but there was no response. "What did you do to my kids? What the hell did you do?" Taylor yelled out loud as she stared at the man standing right in front of her with a mask on his face,"They'll be awake soon. If we wanted them dead, then madam would have instructed earlier.""Madam? Who's she? Who kidnapped my kids?" "Shut up woman, else I might really hurt one of them. Madam will be here soon so wait patiently." The man instructed and Taylor immediately became silent. The most important thing right now was that her kids were alive and she was beside them.A few minutes
