BROKEN FRIENDSHIP The whole staff upon hearing the alert had gathered downstairs as they watched the lady being pulled by their boss. Many wondered what she must have done to anger the vulture while some threw scornful look at Leniela, the others pitied the young woman who was sure to leave this world in the next minutes to come. Lilian, who had been waiting for Leniela so she could have her dinner upon taking a close look at what was happening, her eyes widened and she ran for the person whom she knew could help Leniela at the moment. "Savina". Leniela cried as she knocked on the door but got no response. "Savina please open up Leniela is in danger". She persisted but the door remained closed so she forced her way in and Savina who was lying on the bed instantly rose up. "Hey Lilian!, what was that for? You almost gave me a hard attack". Savina panicked pulling the headset away from her ears.. " We have to save Lenie". She quickly replied pointing towards the door and Savina in
HUMAN PIG "As the years went by just like in every other group of friends, Nathalia and Rocco developed feelings for each other but kept it a secret because Nathalia was still young back then and Uncle Alfredo wouldn't allow them. The only person Nathalia confided in was me. I swear I tried many times to at least tell Cesare but she wouldn't let me.". Wiggling her head, she allowed the tears to continue pouring. "Oh how I wished I disobeyed her, how I wished I neglected her please and never listened to her". Savina punched the empty space on the bed severally as she choked on her own tears. Leniela could feel the impact of the pain and regret reached for her shoulders and placed a hand there which calmed her a bit. "Few month later, all of a sudden Rocco went missing but soon return and asked that Uncle Alfredo stepped down and gave him his position". " But that is Cesare's birthright". Leniela confusely commented. "The bastárdo didn't give a damn about that. He even went ahea
CESARE'S MAKEUP " How is she?" Rico asked, looking at his friend who just stepped out of Nathalia's room. Cesare glanced at his friend's worried face before walking past him and Rico soon followed him. "She's better than yesterday". He calmly replied but nothing inside him was calm. His mind was in ruckus. Nathalia was ignoring him. Since yesterday she woke up after her sudden fainting, she had cried non stop and requested to be alone. That was unlike her because she always wanted him beside her but yesterday's act worried him especially as he didn't know what he did to offend her. Today he had gone to see her thinking that she would behave differently but no. She just turned her back on him immediately she saw him and didn't open her eyes till he left. "Do you think what happened yesterday scared her?. I mean you manhandled Leniela in front of..". "Do not even think of ruining my mood this morning Rico". Cesare paused, turning to glare at his friend. "I'm being reasonable her
THE GOOD HOUSEWIFE(1) "Did you forget something?" Savina asked seeing Leniela return back with an angry face. She looked like she would murder whoever angered her. "Cesare instructed his men not to let me out of the house and I can't talk to him because I don't have his number". She frustratingly mutters and Savina laughed. "You guys are one strange couple.". She commented, stretching her hand towards her. "I assure you it isn't going to make a difference. Just do me a favor and put it on speaker". "Thank you". Leniela received the phone and dialed his number and he picked up at third ring. "Savi, I'm in a meeting right now". Savina scoffed loudly." The nerve of him to think I'll call him after what happened." "A very horrible morning to you too Mr Cesare Ferrari". Leniela gnashed with a frown. "What do you want?" Cesare harshly asked after hearing her voice. "Your men refused to let me leave the mansion. You know too well that I have to be at the bakery to avoid suspicion".
THE GOOD HOUSE WIFE Sapphire blue eyes glanced around the big living room as she descended the stairs with quick but slow steps. It was too early so she was sure the maids and guards were still asleep. "This is perfect. No one can stop me now". Leniela smirked, giving a final careful look before running for the door. An hour later, she was already through with her business and arranged everything properly. "What's going on here?". Lililian asked, seeing how the maids gathered in little groups and whispering to themselves they stepped aside so she could see. "How did all that get here?".She asked, completely stunned. "We don't know mam, we just woke up and found it there?" One of the maids replied sincerely. "I am responsible for it". A feminine voice answered and Lilian eyes found Leniela coming out of the kitchen putting on a hairnet and apron. "Leniela? You mean you prepared all these foods on the table single handedly?". She asked, completely stunned and sh
"You know what I think? My dear brother has got a rival". Savina taunted Leniela who was occupying the seat beside her.Lenielai tilted her head to look at her. "What are you talking about?"Savina smirked. "The hottie earlier, he likes you".Leniela laughed hearing her say."I know by the way he looks at you." Savina insisted."Aldo is just a good friend of mine and my mom's employee. The truth is he doesn't know I'vebeen living here instead of Emmas'!". Leniela explained with a spank of guilt."Why lie to him then?" Savina asked with arched brows.Leniela heaved then replied on her way to the kitchen."Well No one except Emma knows I'm married to Cesare"."Oh!" Savina mouthed."But why don't you open up to him instead of lying? He might even be of help"."I want to but I can't risk it. Not that I don't trust him, it's just that my mom ensured me to himwhile she's at Siena. I don't want to drag him into this because it might create problems for themboth if my mom is to ever find o
LUCKY CHARM "I look forward to continue working with you, Mr Ferrari". The bald man said as he stretched his hand for a handshake. His French accent was evident in his voice. Cesare smirked. In the Mafia world relationships didn't exist; you could only have Allies if you have two things; money and power. Nevertheless, he replied with a handshake. "Sure Mr Agreste". The man smiled at him again then Rico before walking out of the door and the other two soon followed too where there were three black SUVs waiting for them outside with some of their men. "Phew! I didn't expect to finish this early but it's good because I Can't wait to get some rest, we've been working on this deal for days now" I could swear that I was feeling drowsy the whole time. Rico exclaimed as he settled himself inside the car. "The reason why you are feeling like that is as a result of the too much food you ate earlier and you are still in a haste to continue where you stopped". Cesare mocked, wiggling his he
CAUGHT IN HIS WEB. "That cousin of mine is so unpredictable". Savina said with a frown as Leniela quietly got out of Nathalia's room. When Lilian informed them earlier it was already too late to leave the room because she would have crashed into Cesare so the only way was to hide inside Nathalia's bathroom. Savina had also pleaded with Nathalia to pretend to be asleep so that Cesare wouldn't take long inside the room and luckily everything went as planned. They had also left the books with her provided no one else saw it. "Well at least we didn't get caught thanks to Lilian's tip". Leniela replied appreciatively to Lilian who smiled back. "Something worse than last time would have happened if he saw you. He looked very furious earlier when he arrived''. Lilian informed and the other two frowned. Whatever happened must be the reason he came back earlier than expected. "So you're the lucky charm Savina was referring to" A voice interrupted them and the three turned to see a man l
