The Mafia's Dark Embrace 17. Tell Me Why
"Why are you doing all this to me? Tell me why right now!" Orella said as she stared at the masked man in front of her. Now she could clearly see the man who had been helping her to destroy Dante. She also recalled the incident last night when she saved the masked man. "Why the silence? Do you think I can't remove the mask you've been using to deceive me, Dante Laurenzo Ludovic?" Orella asked the man in front of her again. Orella stared intently at the man in front of her. She stood even though Dante was now very close to her. "You want to know the purpose of me doing all this to you?" Dante asked Orella in a cold tone. "Yes. Just tell me! I also want to know why you killed my brother and took his belongings," Orella replied. However, Orella was surprised to hear what Silvia said over the communication channel. She continued to listen to everything her friend said. "Silvia, hang in there! I'll be right there!" Orelle said, concerned for her friend's safety. "What's wrong?" Dan

A heavy rain fell on a cold Naples night, with thunder showing its strength. Several men dressed in black chased a man and a young woman while carrying firearms. "Orella, get out of here!" said the man, who was none other than his sister. "What?" Orella widened her eyes. "No! I don't want to! I won't leave you, Juan!" The older brother gently rubbed Orella's bleeding forehead after hitting her head on a rock. Orella looked up at her brother and saw his sad face. It was clear that Juan didn't want to lose her. "Take care of yourself!" said Juan as he pushed his sister roughly until she slipped. "Juan!" shouted Orella. "Why did you push me?" Orella was about to approach, but her brother immediately said, "Stay there! Don't move!" She saw the enemy who managed to get close. Orella also saw Juan, who was blocking them from approaching her. A tall, bulky man had Juan by the neck from behind. However, the older brother managed to poke his opponent in the ribs. "Juan, just give u

"Juan ...." Orella, who had just woken up, screamed. She continued to scream hysterically, calling her brother's name. When she remembered the incident that night, she would go crazy and destroy everything near her. She almost hurt herself. Some people came into her room, and they held her tightly. "Let go of me! Don't block me! I want to find Juan!" Orella shouted as she tried to free herself from the grip of her father's guards. She kept struggling and trying to free herself. However, the harder she tried, the tighter the guards held her. "Miss Orella, calm down! Let Mr. Juan be at ease!" said a guard who could not bear to look at her. "You're lying! Juan, he's alive! Hurry up and help me look for him!" said Orella, who still thought that her brother was alive. "Orella Daria Maldini! Stop calling his names!" growled a middle-aged man who had just walked into the room. "This is all your fault! If you'd just come looking for us none of this would have happened, Dad!" Ore

"What's going on?" muttered Orella when she saw the commotion after she entered the party room. She approached the direction of the commotion because she heard the voice of someone she recognized. Orella stopped her steps once she had a clear view. Orella saw the woman in the yellow dress slap the woman in the white dress so hard. She was fed up with what was happening in front of her. Without thinking, she took a few steps forward and slapped the woman in yellow back twice as hard as the woman in white. "Orella, you!" screeched the woman in the yellow dress in an irritated tone. Without responding, Orella slapped the woman in the yellow dress again. She didn't care at all about everyone watching her. "I told you not to, Olivia Vedetta! So that you don't have to show your weakness to this pair of rotten humans!" Orella said in a cold tone to the woman in the white dress in front of her. "You crazy woman! What did you come here for? Do you want to ruin Mr. Ludovic's party?" i

"Did I hear wrong?" asked a man who had been in the room all along. However, he was only paying attention to the one in front of him. Orella looked in the direction of the man's voice, and the man approached her. She was shocked when she saw the man's face, and her blood boiled even more when he was near her. "Of course I want her. This woman must enter the Ludovic family. Nothing can stop me!" said the old man as he looked at the young man beside him. The young man again expressed his disagreement with what the older man, who was none other than his father, wanted. While they were arguing, Orella just stared at the man with mounting anger. She clenched her hands into fists to hold back her emotions so as not to cause any more trouble for her father or the Maldini family. "I'm willing to join the family, Ludovic," said Orella, surprising everyone in the room, including her father. "Honey, say it again! Did I hear you wrong?" Ilario asked his daughter. "I am willing to marry

Orella was already in her back garden. The guests had attended her wedding to Dante Laurenzo Ludovic. She saw her father standing waiting for her, holding out his hand. She accepted her father's hand and said, "There's no need to worry about me. Believe that I can protect you." "I'm not willing to sacrifice you," continued the father. "No! Don't do that! Do you want to see this house filled with the blood of innocent people?" Orella pleaded with the intention of blocking her father, who was about to pull out his gun. Orella didn't want her house to be flooded with the blood of innocent people. She saw some people who had nothing to do with her family's problems, and she saw her best friend, who was at this party. "Dad, I still don't remember the man from that night. But I'm going to find out everything. I won't stop finding out who the person was who killed Juan that night," Orella spoke to her father. Orella did all that to make her father calm down a bit. So as not to start a

"You?" Orella instantly drew her dagger and released the man. She recognized the man she had been struggling with. She took a step back and sat down on a nearby sofa. "You seem to know every corner of the Ludovic family residence," Orella said as she looked at the man in front of her. She couldn't possibly forget that man because he had brought her to meet the masked man that night. Orella was still staring at the man as she waited for him to say something. "My master gave me orders to give this to you," the man said as he handed Orella an envelope. After that, he left the room quietly. Orella frowned as she felt that the man was indeed part of the Ludovic family. Her curiosity grew about the man and the masked man. Without opening the envelope, she ran out of the room. She immediately followed the man. She easily managed to follow him and arrived at a garden. "Is that where he's hiding?" Orella muttered as she continued following the man until she was near a vine-made maze. S

Orella tried to stay awake, but the drowsiness was getting to her. And finally, she fell asleep next to Dante. Finally, someone's shout woke her up. "Get ready!" Dante said after he saw Orella wake up. Then he walked towards the bathroom. Meanwhile, Orella was still sitting on the bed. Not so long ago, she heard the shout of the person who had woken her up. She also saw Dante, who had just come out of the bathroom. "What are you waiting for? Get ready!" Dante ordered Orella. Orella didn't respond to Dante's words even though she was annoyed by the man's tone. However, in the back of her mind, she was grumbling and still curious about the person who had been yelling until this moment. She had finished preparing and saw Dante sitting on the sofa. She felt that he was waiting for her. "Come with me!" Dante said in a flat tone as he got up and walked out of the room. Orella followed him and didn't ask many questions until she arrived at the gazebo in the back garden. She saw two me

The Mafia's Dark Embrace 16. The Face Behind the Mask
"I'm really sick of you guys! Do you think I'm stupid? If you want to kill each other, do it!" Orella said angrily again and left the maze. She was really upset and tired of today's events, especially the part where her father was defending Miranda. Then came Mario, who also pointed his gun at Dante. "Two annoying brothers," Orella snapped as she started her car. Once she was outside the house, Orella increased the speed of her car. She continued to drive her car and still hadn't considered where she should go. Not long after, her cell phone vibrated. She stopped her car and opened the message. Orella read the message, then got back in the car and headed for a cafe—where the cafe belonged. "Why did that happen?" Orella asked a woman after she arrived at the cafe. "I don't know. Orella, will you allow me to leave for a few days? I need to take care of my mother until she recovers," the woman replied. "Go take care of your mother. If you need anything, you can tell me," Orella re
The Mafia's Dark Embrace 15. Threatening Back
"You finally took off your mask," Orella said with a smile. She looked at Miranda, but she did nothing to the woman. Orella would give the woman a chance not to continue with her foul plan. "Here I am. I will take everything that I should have! You're just a foolish and weak woman. Do you know that you will die soon?" said Miranda. Orella continued to look at Miranda, who continued to talk about everything she was going to do. The woman also said that she would eliminate everything related to people who were already dead. She was annoyed by what Miranda had said. Without saying anything, she slapped the woman quite hard. "Orella!" shouted her father, who saw her slap Miranda. "What can you see in a woman like her?" asked Orella to her father, who was already in front of her. "She is the woman right beside me. Do you doubt me?" replied the father as he gave his daughter an annoyed look. Orella smiled as she heard her father's words. It was now clear that she had blinded her fat
The Mafia's Dark Embrace 14. So That's You
"Tell me who you are?" The masked man asked Orella again. Orella remained silent as she looked into the rearview mirror of her motorcycle. She thought maybe the man hadn't realized that his mask was off. Now, what she was curious about was why the man was doing all this to her. She saw the man get off his bike and pick up his phone. Orella stayed where she was because a few seconds earlier, she saw an enemy car pass by. "You can act already! I'll be waiting for you at the point I sent you!" the man said to the person on the other end of the line. After that, he disconnected the phone. Without saying much more, Orella immediately started her motorcycle and left the man behind. She wondered if the man's men would arrive soon to pick him up. "What exactly is your purpose in doing all this?" Orella muttered as she continued to drive her motorcycle at a high speed. Finally, Orella arrived at an apartment. It was hers, and no one knew about it except Silvia and her brother Juan. She

"Orella, I've gotten new information about the woman your father is currently close to," Silvia told Orella. "Tell me!" continued Orella as she put on the earrings and the necklace. Now, she was preparing to attend a ceremony organized by her company. No one knew the business she was running, not even Dante or her father. "So what are you going to do? Would you approve of your father being with that woman?" Silvia asked Orella after finishing telling her all the information about Miranda. Orella didn't answer Silvia's question even though her best friend gave her information that didn't endanger her father or her family. However, she still couldn't fully trust Miranda, who wanted to take her mother's place in her father's heart or home. "You tell them to keep an eye on that woman. And keep finding out all the information about her. I'm sure there's something still hidden," Orella told Silvia. "Okay. I'll tell my people," Silvia replied. Orella heard Silvia's cell phone ring. Sh
The Mafia's Dark Embrace 12. I Trust You
Dante was still trying to find out about the secret Orella and Juan were hiding. However, he couldn't get Orella to tell him, and she fell asleep in Dante's arms. Orella wakes up in the morning as the sunlight dazzles her eyes. She is transfixed by the sight of Dante asleep next to her, and she gently pulls her hand away from his chest. "What happened?" murmured Orella, whose last memory was of seeing the little girl who could no longer be saved. She heard Dante's cell phone ring, and Orella pretended to be asleep. She felt Dante move, probably to get his cell phone. It wasn't long before she heard him talking to the person on the other end of the line. "I don't care if the Maldini family's small business is destroyed," Dante said to the person on the other end of the line. Dante's words startled Orella, and she immediately changed her body position so that she was on top of the man's body. She stared intently at Dante, but he smiled coldly. "Stop that plan! Otherwise, you'll re
The Mafia's Dark Embrace 11. Can Make Her Crazy
"Stay where you are! And don't move!" Dante told Orella again and pulled the trigger of his gun. The bullet whizzed towards Orella, but Dante could tell that it didn't hit her. The shot was right on target: a man behind Orella and about to finish her off. Dante walked over to Orella, who was still standing. Reflexively, he held Orella, who was about to fall. He carried the woman, who was currently unconscious. "You take care of that intruder! Get all the information from him!" Dante ordered the man in front of him. Dante walked into the house while continuing to carry Orella. Occasionally, he looked at the face of the woman who wanted his destruction and death. "You're still weak. I don't know if you can take the backlash," Dante said as he walked into the room and laid Orella on the couch. He walked to the bathroom and grabbed a dry towel. Then he grabbed his T-shirt. Dante approached Orella again and individually took off her dirty and wet clothes. Then, he dried Orella's body
The Mafia's Dark Embrace 10. Where am I?
"Am I crazy to want to kill you? Just look at that guy attacking me and my men, too!" Gia shouted as she ran behind the car to take cover. Orella also believed what Gia said because, one by one, the woman's men were shot. She tried to stay calm and find the position of the person who was shooting at her. "Give me a gun!" Orella shouted to anyone who was nearby. A man immediately threw a gun at her. Orella quickly managed to catch the gun. She was ready to shoot at the man who kept raining bullets. "There you are," Orella said with a smile as she pulled the trigger of the gun in her hand. The bullet shot towards the person who had been shooting at her. She waited for a while. She stood up but was still wary of the enemy, who suddenly stopped shooting at her. 'There's no way my bullet will hit him, right? "Orella asked herself. "They're gone," a man said, pointing at a car that was leaving the scene. Orella stood up and came out of her shelter. She looked at the spot where she h
The Mafia's Dark Embrace 9. The Substitute Woman
Orella stopped the car when her cell phone rang. She saw that the number calling her was her father. She immediately picked up the phone and listened to everything her father said. "Okay. I'm going home now," Orella said to her father on the other end of the line, and then she disconnected the phone. She got back into the car and turned around. It wasn't long before she arrived at her father's house. Orella went straight to her father, who was in his workspace. "Dad, what's going on?" Orella asked her father after she entered the workspace. "Sit down!" The father replied as he got up and walked to the sofa. Then he sat there. Orella nodded and sat down on the sofa across from her father. She looked up at her father, trying to figure out what he wanted. "What is it?" Orella asked her father again as he just looked at her without speaking. "Are they giving you a hard time?" The father replied with another question to his daughter. "I'm fine. I'm not a weak woman who is easily i
